Multi Mind Mayhem is getting a TV anime adaptation. A teaser visual featuring Bard, the hero who carries the souls of a noble, a warlord, and an otaku, has also been revealed. Yusuke Kobayashi will voice Bard.

Multi Mind Mayhem Gets a TV Anime

It has been announced that the light novel Multi Mind Mayhem will be adapted into a television anime. The original work is written by Ryousen Takami, with original illustrations by Ririnra, and the manga adaptation by Honoji. The series is published by Alphapolis.

Alongside the announcement, a teaser visual was released featuring Bard, the protagonist who possesses three souls within a single body. Bard will be voiced by Yusuke Kobayashi.

A Three Soul Rise to Power Story

This work is a rise to power story built around three united identities, with the series surpassing 1.35 million copies in circulation.

Bard is the heir to Count Cornelius, a noble family in the Kingdom of Mauricia. Within his body reside the soul of Sanai Oka, a Sengoku era warlord who served the Uesugi clan, and the soul of Masaharu Oka, a modern high school otaku who loves animal ears.

Sanai, a warlord with a sharp eye for money, helps refine Bard’s talent for commerce and martial arts. Masaharu’s modern knowledge leads to a series of inventions and enormous profits. With these three souls acting as one, Bard begins to distinguish himself in both territorial management and battle. In time, he grows into a figure capable of influencing even the fate of the kingdom itself.

As a noble, a warlord, and an otaku, Bard rises through another world as a true trinity.

Comment from original author Ryousen Takami
“Thanks to the support of our readers and the cooperation of many people including Ririnra, Honoji, and the production company, Multi Mind Mayhem is finally being adapted into an anime. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude. On a personal note, I am thrilled that an actor I have admired for 30 years is taking part in the project. Like all of you, I am also looking forward to enjoying the anime as a viewer. Thank you very much for your continued support.”

Comment from original illustrator Ririnra
“Congratulations on the anime adaptation of Multi Mind Mayhem. I am very happy and also surprised. It feels like a dream. I am already excited to see Bard and the others brought to life through animation and to watch their story unfold.”

Comment from manga artist Honoji
“Hello, this is Honoji. Congratulations on the anime adaptation of Multi Mind Mayhem. I never imagined it would become an anime. I am already excited and wondering what kinds of expressions and direction will be possible in animation that cannot be done in manga.”

Comment from Yusuke Kobayashi, voice of Bard
“I will be playing Bard. He is an appealing but challenging character because he has three personalities. Please look forward to a story in which he uses the wisdom of all three, handles domestic affairs, survives battles, and rises to power together with his companions.”
