Hanashi Media will release the light novel’s first English volume on May 9, 2027.
Shufunotomo announced a TV anime adaptation of Fudaya Sanmongarasu and Tomozo’s fantasy light novel, with a January 2027 premiere planned.
Shufunotomo announced on Friday that Living It Up in Another World Until I Get Bored (Isekai Douraku ni Akitara) will receive a television anime adaptation. The series premieres in January 2027.
The eighth light novel volume arrives on November 30. Its wraparound band announces the anime.
Hanashi Media licensed the light novel for English release, with the first volume scheduled for May 9, 2027.
In Hanashi Media’s synopsis, a thirty-something nobody suddenly finds himself stranded in another world while heading home, as though the universe heard him. This strange, game-like world runs on levels, magic, skills and other fantastical rules.
He gains tremendous power without working for it, leaving him with three choices:
- Side with humanity and become a hero.
- Join the demons and unleash chaos on the world.
- Choose neither and use his power for his own amusement.
The choice is obvious to him: live exactly as he pleases in another world until he gets bored.
Fudaya Sanmongarasu began writing the adventure fantasy novel on Shousetsuka ni Narou in June 2016. Shufunotomo began publishing the light novel through its Prime Novels imprint in June 2017, with illustrations by Tomozo.
Prime Novels published two volumes, with the second released in April 2018. Imagica Infos later republished the series under its Hero Bunko imprint in January 2019.
The seventh volume came out in October 2024. Further novel information appears on its official Hero Bunko page.
SAA began drawing a manga adaptation on the Hero Comics web service in June 2025. Its first volume was released digitally on September 30.
