New Saga Hits With Summer Release
The recently released fantasy anime New Saga debuted in early July 2025, bringing the intriguing tale of Kyle, a magic swordsman who travels back in time after defeating the Demon King. Produced by Sotsu and Studio Clutch, the series combines time-travel with high-stakes adventure as Kyle attempts to prevent the catastrophe he endured the first time around. With seasoned director Naoki Mizusawa at the helm and Kenta Ihara handling series composition, the anime delivers a polished adaptation of Masayuki Abe’s original light novels.
The cast enriches the narrative, featuring Yūma Uchida as Kyle alongside Hiro Shimono and Fairouz Ai reprising roles from the source material, while veterans Takehito Koyasu and Yōko Hikasa join as formidable demons Ganias and Yuriga. The opening theme “Enja” by 4s4ki and the EDM-infused ending theme “her” by Mahiru Coda add a fresh and emotional soundtrack that enhances the series’ tone. The production also provides new trailers and key visuals, highlighting the anime’s journey and character-driven plot.
Airing on ABC TV and Tokyo MX, New Saga is also streaming on Crunchyroll, making it accessible to international fans. Early reviews suggest the series does a solid job mixing emotional depth, time-travel strategy, and demon-slaying action, establishing itself as a compelling addition to the summer 2025 lineup. With a narrative full of second-chance stakes and a rich ensemble cast, New Saga is already gaining attention as a must-watch fantasy adventure.
