Imagine being a demon soldier with no magic powers. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it’s just how ‘The Slow Second Life of the Retired Dark Soldier in His 30s’ novel’s protagonist is.
This light novel series by Rokujūyon Okazawa might not be that popular, but it has a solid fan base because why else would it receive an anime?
Kodansha’s Young Magazine imprint has confirmed that Rokujūyon Okazawa’s The Slow Second Life of the Retired Dark Soldier in His 30s novel is getting an anime adaptation.
After a brilliant light novel and a fantastic manga adaptation by Rurekuchie, the franchise is finally getting an anime. I think it’s obvious how excited fans are at this news.
Cybex cafe chain also confirms the adaptation through the Twitter account of its Kashiwa branch. It posted the manga’s seventh volume cover, where its wraparound jacket reveals the anime’s January 2023 debut.

Since many of you are unfamiliar with the story, let me help you out.
Dariel has no affinity for magic whatsoever but manages to hold a position in the Dark Lord’s army due to his intellect. Serving beside the Lord’s most trusted captains, Dariel enjoyed many privileges until he got fired.
Surprisingly, this man didn’t do anything stupid due to sadness and instead retired to a human village. You’d think he’ll lead a peaceful life, but what sort of a main character would Dariel be if he didn’t get into uninvited trouble?
The story might sound much like a typical isekai, but it’s much different.
I’m really curious to see what kind of trouble Dariel gets into while living in such a tranquil place.
