Tsuihou Sareta Tensei Juukishi Anime Gets 2026 Premiere – GoHands’ Animation Style Sparks Mixed Reactions

In September 2024, the anime adaptation of Tsuihou Sareta Tensei Juukishi wa Game Chishiki de Musou Suru was officially announced. Based on the light novel series by Necoco, the anime is currently slated to premiere in 2026.

The studio behind the adaptation? GoHands — known for their ultra-stylized, dynamic, and sometimes polarizing animation techniques.

So far, two promotional videos have been released. Both showcase the studio’s signature style: intense angles, glossy character renders, and hyper-fluid motion that often feels like a fever dream.

While character designs seem polished and loaded with detail, nothing in the still visuals could’ve prepared viewers for the chaotic energy of the animation in motion.

What’s Tsuihou Sareta Tensei Juukishi About?

“You worthless son! You were supposed to inherit the master swordsman class—how could this be such a disgrace?”

On their fifteenth birthday, children receive a Divine Blessing, assigning them their life’s class. Elymas, the protagonist, was expected to inherit the legendary swordsman role from his father. Instead, he’s branded with the “useless” Heavy Knight class and exiled from his noble family.

But Elymas holds a secret: he reincarnated into this world from one where this is just a game. He knows the Heavy Knight isn’t weak at all—it’s actually the most broken class if used correctly.

Armed with game knowledge and battle instincts, Elymas sets out to dominate the world that cast him aside.

Japanese Fans Are Already Reacting to the Anime PVs

Here’s a look at what some Japanese viewers are saying:

• “Isn’t this the studio known for weird hair animations?”

• “Feels like it was generated by AI.”

• “I didn’t expect to like it, but the story seems more balanced than your average OP MC isekai.”

• “The manga’s fun enough, I guess.”

• “So flashy it’s exhausting. Even the mobs look ridiculous.”

• “GoHands tries hard, but their compositions are just hard to watch.”

• “Already used to GoHands visuals at this point.”

• “If their goal was to tire your eyes, mission accomplished.”

• “Too much hair movement in every scene!”

• “If you like game-based anime, this might actually be enjoyable.”

Will GoHands Pull It Off?

Whether you love or hate their style, there’s no denying that GoHands brings a unique visual identity to their projects. With Tsuihou Sareta Tensei Juukishi, fans are cautiously optimistic—but some remain skeptical about whether the studio’s flashiness will complement or distract from the story.

What do you think? Can GoHands deliver a compelling isekai adaptation?
