The TV anime The Brilliant Healer’s New Life in the Shadows (Japanese: 一瞬で治療していたのに役立たずと追放された天才治癒師、闇ヒーラーとして楽しく生きる) will begin airing on April 3 on TOKYO MX, BS11, and other networks. Alongside this announcement, the main PV, opening theme, and additional cast have been unveiled.

Originally a popular light novel on "Shosetsuka ni Naro", the series follows Zenos, a genius healer who was abruptly expelled from his adventurer party by its leader, Aston. Though his party members believed he was useless, Zenos had actually been instantly healing them before they even noticed their injuries.

After being kicked out, Zenos secretly opens a clinic in an abandoned town, where he begins treating various patients. Soon, Krishna, the Vice Captain of the Harses Kingdom’s Royal Guard, hears of Zenos’s abilities and pays him a visit—setting the stage for an exciting new adventure.

The main promotional video (PV) showcases Zenos in action—not only as a healer but also as a front-line fighter. The PV also features various characters and is set to the opening theme song performed by bokula.

・Krishna (Yuki Nakashima)
Vice Captain of the Royal Guard, known as the "Iron Rose."

・Zonde (Taku Yashiro)
Younger brother of Zophia, a top Lizardman leader.

・Aston (Masaaki Mizunaka)

Teaser Trailer

The Brilliant Healer Introduction

A new dark hero healer is born!

He’s no shadow doctor. He’s a shadow healer who cures, comforts, and even rights the wrongs of the world...?

“You haven’t done anything lately. To be honest, we don’t need you anymore.”

When a young healer named Zenos is deemed “useless” by the party of adventurers, he is banished from the group with a single gold coin as severance pay.

Born in the slums, Zenos practices self-taught healing magic without a healer’s license.

As he wanders the streets with nowhere to go, he comes across Lily, an elf girl who’s on the verge of dying from a wound to her stomach.

“Don’t worry, it’s not that bad. You’ll be fine.”

“Huh? It doesn’t hurt and the wound is gone! What did you do?!”

A quietly run clinic in an abandoned town at the very edge of the slums sets the stage for the fantastic tale of a brilliant unlicensed healer who has no idea just how powerful he truly is.
