The GA Bunko light novel series Undefeated Bahamut Chronicle, aka Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut, has been quietly moving along since it was first announced and we’ve had some decent bits of news over time that has fleshed out the basics for the series.

Plot concept: Lux, a former prince of an empire named Arcadia that was overthrown via a rebellion five years earlier. Lux accidentally trespasses in a female dormitory’s bathing area, sees the kingdom’s new princess Lisesharte naked, and incurs her wrath. Lisesharte then challenges Lux to a Drag-Ride duel. Drag-Rides are ancient armored mechanical weapons that have been excavated from ruins all around the world. Lux used to be called the strongest Drag-Knight, but now he’s known as the “undefeated weakest” Drag-Knight because he will absolutely not attack in battle. After his duel with Lisesharte, Lux ends up attending the female-only academy that trains royals to be Drag-Knights.
Some of the wackiest names ever created.
