Kadokawa released the creditless opening sequence for the Tomb Raider King animated series, featuring the theme song "SHOW DOWN" by QWER. The Korean-animated adaptation of the webtoon will premiere in Japan on July 8 with a Japanese dub, and Crunchyroll will stream it internationally. The series follows tomb raider Jooheon Suh who travels back in time to seek revenge.
The series is directed by Seung Wook Woo at STUDIO EEK, with Hyun-Jung Lee as character designer and chief animation director. The opening theme "SHOW DOWN" and ending theme "To Be Continued" are both performed by Korean girl group QWER. The adaptation of the Tomb Raider King webtoon, originally a web novel by SAN.G, will air on Fuji TV and other Japanese networks starting July 8 under the localized title Tōkutsuō. Crunchyroll will stream the series as it airs, while Tapas and Ize Press handle the English webtoon and print editions respectively.
