About Hero Without a Class: Who Even Needs Skills?!
In a world where a goddess assigns each person a class and a set of skills to steer their future, Arel is the exception. He grows up as the son of a renowned Sword Princess and a powerful Archmage, yet receives no class and no official talents to speak of. Instead of bowing to fate, he relies on stubborn grit, sharp instincts, and hard won trickery to chase greatness. He crafts a new kind of hero by turning limitations into fuel for action and invention. He crafts a new kind of hero by turning his lack of a traditional path into a weapon and finds ways to prove himself through daring moves and quick thinking. The story follows his efforts to redefine what counts as power in a system that prizes labels over people, all while keeping his humanity intact.
Produced by Chabo Higurashi and Shichio Kuzu, the series features a striking voice cast including Kensho Ono, Saori Hayami, Sumire Uesaka, and Rumi Okubo. The project is described as an original concept rather than an adaptation for streaming audiences worldwide.
