Have you ever wondered about Emilia’s past? Well, it turns out that the Re:Zero Kara Hajimeru Zenjitsu-tan: Hyouketsu no Kizuna prequel novel is getting an anime adaptation! And yes, it will be a prequel which will follow the first meeting between Emilia and Puck. This new anime will serve as Re:Zero’s second OVA, following the upcoming Memory Snow anime.

Unfortunately, we still don’t know when they will release this new OVA. However, many are expecting more news to drop when the first OVA, Memory Snow, gets its Japanese theatrical screening on 6th October.

Tappei Nagatsuki first released the Hyouketsu no Kizuna prequel novel with the TV anime’s first Volume Blu-ray special edition release. It gives more details on Emilia’s past, particularly her first meeting with Puck.
