Hisashi Ishii (I’m Quitting Heroing) directs The Unaware Atelier Master at EMT Squared (The Aristocrat’s Otherworldly Adventure). Deko Akao (Unnamed Memory) handles series composition, with musical artist Harikemu Wata on board to compose the score. The series is scheduled to premiere in April 2025.
Yosuke Tokino writes the original The Unaware Atelier Master light novels, which are illustrated by Zounoze. Alpha Manga publishes the manga adaptation in English, describing the story thus:
One day, Kurt, a kind-hearted boy, is suddenly kicked out of the Hero’s Party for being “useless”. He finds that his aptitude for weapons, magic, and all other combat-related skills is the lowest rank, so he takes odd-jobs repairing the castle walls and digging for minerals to make a living, where his exceptional abilities are immediately revealed. He proves to be skillful in cooking, building, mining, crafting magical tools–in fact, his aptitude for every skill unrelated to combat had an SSS-ranking! Kurt, however, seems completely unaware to his talent and ends up saving people, the town, and even the country through his unaware actions!?
