The anime adaptation of Ezogingitune and DeeCHA's light novel series I Became a Legend After My 10 Year-Long Last Stand premiered in July 2026, after a delay from its original April date. The production pushed back the premiere to improve the final product. The series follows S-rank mage Luck, who emerges from a decade-long battle against the Demon King to find the world has moved on without him, and is forced to start over as an F-rank adventurer.
The premiere was reviewed by Anime Feminist, which called it engaging and praised its character-driven take on a veteran hero's displacement rather than a power fantasy. The adaptation is directed by Hiroyuki Kanbe at studio Gekkō, with series scripts by Mitsutaka Hirota and character designs by Majiro. The cast includes Gakuto Kajiwara as Luck, alongside Toshiyuki Morikawa, Tsuyoshi Koyama, and Yui Ishikawa.
As the series airs, the cast has expanded. Miharu Hanai voices Charlotte and Suzuna Kinoshita voices Mary, the daughters of Erik. Chō voices Gerberga, a chicken worshipped as divine by Luccira's family, debuting in the third episode. Naoto Kobayashi voices Garuvu, a sacred wolf beast, debuting in the sixth episode. The opening theme song "Soredemo Donten o Koeteyuku" is performed by rock band sajou no hana, and the ending theme song "Ari Kitari na Nichijō to Kōun na Hibi e" (also referred to as "Lucky in the Ordinary") is performed by rock-idol girl group MEISHOHIKOKAI. The novel and manga series combined have over 4.45 million copies in circulation.
