Übel Blatt Mid-Broadcast Visual

Based on the manga by Etoroji Shiono, Takashi Naoya (Am I Actually the Strongest?) directs Übel Blatt at studios Satelight and Staple Entertainment, with series composition by Tatsuya Takahashi, character designs by Kiyoshi Tateishi and music by Shun Narita (The Unwanted Undead Adventurer).
Yen Press publishes an official English version of the manga and describes the story:
Rumors stir throughout the land: when the wielder of the black sword draws his dark blade, all who stand in its path are torn asunder…! Köinzell, the mysterious young boy who carries the black sword, undeniably wields it with exceptional skill, but can he truly be responsible for the bloody rumors? Pursued by the Traitorous Lances, four powerful warriors who were thought to have been defeated by the Seven Heroes, the strength of the young swordsman will be tested to its limit. At battle’s end, only the shocking truth of Köinzell’s quest will stand above the corpses of his enemies… An epic fantasy on the grandest of scales!
