‘I’m Quitting Heroing: Next Gig Is at the Demon Queen’s Castle’ was a 2017 three-volume light novel series that was released by Japanese publishing company Fujimi Shobo and illustrated by Hana Amano. The Tokyo-based Kadokawa Shoten developed a manga edition in 2018 that is illustrated by Nori Kazato. Its popularity led to a 2022 anime from EMT Squared animation studio directed by Yuu Nobuta and Hisashi Ishii with the abbreviated title ‘I’m Quitting Heroing.’ The show currently has only one season of twelve episodes and includes two OVAs.
