Whether you&#8217;re fueling spells, techniques, or showing off an incredible ability, you&#8217;ve gotta spend those points to do real damage. But what if you run out?<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 20px;\">Lent is part of the up-and-coming party known as the \u201cSkypiercers,\u201d and thanks to his unique Gift, he can loan massive amounts of magic to others. No MP? No problem with Lent around! Except, now that his companions have become formidable heroes (thanks to his skill), his usefulness is questioned. Kicked out of the group, Lent is furious\u2026until he discovers a hidden power to his Gift. Now, with his adorably devious fairy partner, he&#8217;s going to claw back every last scrap of magic from his former party\u2014with interest!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenewsnetwork.com\/encyclopedia\/people.php?id=151355\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Takahiro Tamano<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenewsnetwork.com\/encyclopedia\/anime.php?id=32272\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Baban Baban Ban Vampire<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenewsnetwork.com\/encyclopedia\/anime.php?id=28013\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Foolish Angel Dances with the Devil<\/a>\u00a0assistant director) is directing the anime at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenewsnetwork.com\/encyclopedia\/company.php?id=10717\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Synergy SP<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenewsnetwork.com\/encyclopedia\/people.php?id=290720\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ry\u016bsuke Mori<\/a> is in charge of series scripts, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenewsnetwork.com\/encyclopedia\/people.php?id=221879\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kazue Mori<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenewsnetwork.com\/encyclopedia\/anime.php?id=24708\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Yakuza&#8217;s Guide to Babysitting<\/a> sub-character designer) is designing the characters.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The anime will premiere in October on Saturdays at 25:30 (effectively, Sundays at 1:30 a.m.) on TV Asahi and 23 affiliated channels, and then later on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenewsnetwork.com\/encyclopedia\/company.php?id=4696\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">BS Asahi<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Masakichi <a href=\"https:\/\/kakuyomu.jp\/works\/16816927859671476293\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">launched<\/a> the story on the Kakuyomu website in 2022.
