Earlier this year, we talked about how it looks like we have another light novel to anime adaptation in the pipeline when it comes to The Most Notorious “Talker” Runs the World’s Greatest Clan series. Announced in April 2024, it’s set with Yuta Takamura directing it from the series composition by Takayo Ikami. Kenji Terao is handling the character designs and is serving as the chief animation director alongside Yuki Fukuchi. Felix Flim×GA-CREW is handling the animation production.
The series was set for a September 30th, 2024 premiere through ABEMA (and Crunchyroll) while having an October 7th, 2024 broadcast premiere. With that in mind, the production has now brought out the first preview for the seventh episode broadcast preview due out on November 18th, 2024.

Known originally as Saikyou no Shien-shoku “Wajutsushi” Dearu Ore wa Sekai Saikyou Clan wo Shitagaeru, the light novels come from writer Jaki with illustrations by fame which began in 2019. They have four volumes in print in Japan with a manga adaptation by Yamori-chan that started in 2020 and has eight volumes so far. Seven Seas Entertainment is releasing both in English.

Plot Concept: Noel longs to be a Seeker like his heroic grandfather, slaying the beasts that emerge from Abysses and exploring far-off lands. Unfortunately, it turns out he’s nothing but a measly Talker–a job with no combat skills whatsoever. Undaunted, Noel sets out to establish the strongest clan in all the land, using his silver-tongued Talker skills to unite assassins and heroes under his leadership.
