<p class="MsoNormal">The anime adaptation of <em>Noblesse </em>is, like its fellow manhwas-turned-anime-series <em>Tower of God </em>and <em>God of High School</em>, a co-production between Crunchyroll and WEBTOON. The anime series will be directed by Yasutaka Yamamoto (<em>Hinomaru Sudo, Squid Girl Season 2</em>), with Sayaka Harada (<em>STARMYU, Code:Realize – Guardian of Rebirth - </em>) in charge of series composition. Character designs will be handled by Akihari Ishii (<em>The Prince of Tennis II</em>), who is also chief animation supervisor. The series will be animated by Production I.G.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Crunchyroll describes <em>Noblesse</em>’s story as such:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><em>“Raizel awakens from his 820-year slumber.</em></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><em>He holds the special title of Noblesse, a pure-blooded Noble and protector of all other Nobles. In an attempt to protect Raizel, his servant Frankenstein enrolls him at Ye Ran High School, where Raizel learns the simple and quotidian routines of the human world through his classmates.</em></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><em>However, the Union, a secret society plotting to take over the world, dispatches modified humans and gradually encroaches on Raizel's life, causing him to wield his mighty power to protect those around him…</em></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><em>After 820 years of intrigue, the secrets behind his slumber are finally revealed, and Raizel's absolute protection as the Noblesse begins!”</em></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><em>Noblesse </em>was first posted in WEBTOON on December 30, 2007 and ended serialization last January 2019. The series was also one of the first to receive an English translation at the launch of the English version of the WEBTOON app in 2014.</p>
