Noriaki Kotoba’s The Barbarian’s Bride manga will be adapted into a TV anime with a 2025 premiere date. The teaser trailer is out but without details on the production.
The Barbarian’s Bride manga has been serialized in Kodansha’s Bessatsu Shonen Magazine since 2021. A total of seven volumes are currently out, while the eighth is slated for an October 8 release date. Seven Seas Entertainment licensed the manga in English. The first volume will ship on October 14, while the second is expected in January of 2025.
The plot follows Seafina de Lavillant who faces an arranged marriage. Seven Seas describes the plot:
Serafina de Lavillant, the strongest female knight in the West, was sent to subjugate the barbaric tribes of the East. But when her mission fails spectacularly, she’s captured alive and imprisoned. Humiliated and dreading what horrific torture she’ll endure, she asks to be put to death. To her surprise, rather than tearing her limb from limb, the tribe leader asks for her hand…in marriage! Will Serafina face a cruel and abusive arranged marriage? Or will she discover that these tribes aren’t as barbaric as she was led to believe?
