Turning 16 is hard enough for a young lady, but when you get blessed with the strength of a gorilla on top of being a noble’s daughter, things are able to get a lot more difficult. Kadokawa announced today on World Gorilla Day that the Shirohi-written, Mika Kamisu-drawn manga series, Gorilla no Kami kara Kagosareta Reijou wa Ouritsu Kishi-dan de Kawaigarareru (Having been blessed by the gorilla god, the young lady is loved by the Royal Knights) is getting a TV anime in 2025.
While details on the adaptation are scare, manga illustrator Mika Kamisu drew a celebratory image to commemorate the announcement.
Gorilla no Kami kara Kagosareta Reijou wa Ouritsu Kishi-dan de Kawaigarareru is published by Kadokawa on ComicWalker through its FLOS Comic fantasy label, having published 30 chapters over five compiled volumes.
The story is set in a world were 16-year-olds receive blessings from various animal gods. For Sophia, the timid daughter of a noble, she received the blessing from the “Gorilla God,” giving her the ability to lift over 500 kgs. Although all she wants is a peaceful life, people seek her out due to immense power, leading her to becoming scouted by the royal knights.
