A powerful witch, a mysterious school, and a boy caught in an extraordinary destiny set the stage for this upcoming fantasy romance.
A new fantasy romance is officially heading to television! King's Proposal, the light novel series by Koshi Tachibana and Tsunako, has revealed a new teaser visual and confirmed a 2027 anime premiere. The announcement was made during the Fantasia Bunko Great Appreciation 2026 online event on October 25.
👑 Meet Saika Kuozaki, the Powerful Witch
One of the major highlights of the announcement is the casting of Rie Takahashi as Saika Kuozaki, a powerful mage who plays a central role in the story.
