Adapted from a Japanese light novel series, this anime fantasy drama centres on power struggles between demigods and superpowered warriors, following the death of a powerful demon king.

Season 1 introduced a lot of world building for Ishura's techno-fantasy universe - along with plenty of action.

Among others, the story focuses on an isekai-style swordsman named Soujiro, a wyvern warrior named Alus, and a bandit turned spy named Dakai.
