The premiere of Otherworldly Munchkin: Let's Speedrun the Dungeon with Only 1 HP It will not arrive in October as initially announced. The anime's production committee confirmed that the series will be delayed indefinitely in order to “improve quality”a decision that has taken by surprise fans of the isekai genre who were expecting its release this month.
Otherworldly Munchkin's delay
The official statement indicates that, at the moment, there is no new confirmed release date. The production assured that as soon as a definitive schedule is determined, it will be published through the anime's website and its official social networks. With this, uncertainty surrounds one of the most curious isekai adaptations on this year's premiere slate.
Crunchyroll had already confirmed its broadcast
Prior to this announcement, Otherworldly Munchkin was scheduled to premiere in October and be broadcast on Crunchyroll in various regions of the world. Now, the streaming service is temporarily left without the simultaneous premiere of this adaptation, which has inevitably generated reactions on social networks from followers who already had the dates marked on their calendar.
A story marked by difficulty
The anime adapts the manga Yu Shimizu and Makoto Aogiriwhich follows the adventure of a protagonist who must make his way through a dangerous dungeon under a single rule: advance with just 1 life point. A premise that mixes the spirit of video games with the most extreme elements of the isekai genre, making it a different proposal that many hope to see in motion.
For now, the only thing clear is that Otherworldly Munchkin It will not debut in October. The big question is whether this delay will be brief or whether it will last long enough to move it to the 2025 calendar.
