I Parry Everything!, an ongoing TV anime based on the series of fantasy light novels, has revealed a new piece of key art (below) featuring the protagonist, Noor, decidedly not parrying everything – in this case a magical blast from Lynne. The series is currently broadcasting in Japan on TOKYO MX, Mainichi Broadcasting System and BS11, and it also streams on HIDIVE in the United States.
The original I Parry Everything! light novels are written by Nabeshiki, illustrated by Kawaguchi and published in Japan by Earth Star Entertainment under their Earth Star Novel Imprint. J-Novel Club publishes an English language version of the series. Dai Fukuyama directs the TV anime at OLM. Shigeru Murkoshi provides the series composition, Chikako Noma provides the character designs and Tatsuhiko Saiki and Beau Damian provide the music.
HIDIVE describes I Parry Everything!:
The Kingdom of Clays faces a dire crisis: an assassination attempt has just been made on its own Princess Lynneburg, and now its neighboring countries eye the aftermath like starving vultures, plotting the Kingdom’s downfall. The ensuing conflict will shape the face of the continent for centuries to come…but Noor doesn’t have a clue about any of that! Having freshly arrived at the royal capital after over a decade of rigorous, isolated training at his mountain home, he’s dead set on achieving his childhood dream of becoming an adventurer, even if the only skills he possesses are useless ones. Sure, Noor can “parry” thousands of swords in the span of a single breath, but everybody knows you need more than that if you want to be an adventurer! Our hero’s road to making his dream come true will be long(?) and arduous(?)—but if there’s one thing Noor’s not afraid of, it’s some good ol’ fashioned hard work!
