HYBRID!! anime release date for the first 13 episodes of part 1 confirmed by Netflix

In February, Netflix unveiled the teaser trailer for the new Bastard!! anime will be launched in 2022. Known for its titular wizard, Dark Schneider, this dark fantasy series is going to be a split-cour series.
Now you may be wondering: what is a “cour”? Well, a “cour” is a three-month TV broadcast based on the physical seasons, usually composed of 10 to 13 episodes.
But the upcoming Bastard!! anime will consist of 13 episodes, according to an announcement from the official Twitter account.
The original tweet in Japanese:
And the translated tweet in English:
“Delivery date set on Netflix!
The anime “BASTARD !!-Dark Destruction God-” is available on Netflix.
Episodes 1 through 13 scheduled for worldwide distribution on Thursday, June 30, 2022
Episodes 14 to 24 Scheduled for 2022 * Delivery start date, to be announced later.
Look forward to the delivery!”
The above date confirms the rumors we reported and predictions we made in February.
What is the plot of the upcoming Bastard!! animation?
Little is known about the story at this time. A short excerpt from the official website states the following:
“The work is classic entertainment at its finest: a grand and unique story, compelling fantasy world, intense battles full of sword and sorcery, and adorable heroines who were probably a little too daring for a young boy comic at the time. All this in combination with the extensive artwork of the manga makes Bastard!! the pioneer and pinnacle of dark fantasy manga, which influenced countless works that followed.”
Given the current character roster, which includes Abigail, Di-amon and Kall-Su, the first course will likely revolve around the Bastard’s previous storylines!! manga.
