■Comment from Tachibana Hina
I’m Tachibana Hina, and I’ll be playing PeePee!
When I heard that I had been cast as PeePee, I was honestly worried about whether I could handle the role.
As I reread the original story over and over again, I was gradually inspired by Pee Pee’s honest and straightforward personality, and I too began to want to face each and every one of her feelings head-on.
I took on the recording with PeePee’s determination and kindness in mind.
I hope that everyone can feel PeePee’s wholehearted feelings.
Look forward to seeing Peepis in action!
Thank you!

■Comment from Director Takashi Naoya:
Congratulations on making Über Blut into an anime.
This is the first step in a story in which Kaintzel grows while pursuing revenge, and we will do our best to make it enjoyable for everyone, so we hope you will enjoy it.
■Comment from Tatsuya Takahashi, series composition:
Kaintzel (Asherite) has returned from the brink of death and is fighting for revenge with only his sword.
If you change your perspective to the other side, you will see the terrifying image of a man who died 20 years ago coming back from the grave to try to kill you.
A dark fantasy filled with a variety of emotions.
Of course the sword fighting battles are a highlight, but weapons such as flying dragon boats are also a highlight!
■Comment from character designer, Tateishi Sei: I
am extremely honored to be in charge of character design for “Überblatt.”
I will do my best to express the charm of these beautiful, powerful, and unique characters through animation. Thank you!
Broadcasting begins in January 2025
The most vicious dark fantasy is finally made into an anime!
In the year 3968 of the Oracle Calendar, the Emperor sent out 14 young men with a mission and a sacred spear to stop the invasion of the Dark Land (Vishtehi).
Three of them lost their lives during the journey, and the fourth was killed for defecting to the enemy and betraying the emperor, but it was the seven others who betrayed him and tried to take the honor for themselves.
After their triumphant return to the imperial capital, they were known as the “Seven Heroes” and rose to great heights, earning the respect of the people of the empire. However, one swordsman, Asherite, was stripped of his military achievements and branded with the stigma of the “Spear of Traitorous,” and was surviving by eating the flesh of fairies.
After changing his appearance to that of a boy and his name to Kaintzel, 20 years later, his journey of revenge against the Seven Heroes begins!
