The Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World For My Retirement anime adaptation has received a teaser trailer, which previews the premise and main character Mitsuha (voiced by Rika Nagae). A January 2023 release window was revealed as well.
Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World For My Retirement is based on the light novel series by FUNA, which began in 2017 and has seven volumes as of August 2022. Touzai illustrated the books until the seventh volume, which was illustrated by the manga adaptation’s artist Keisuke Motoe.
Kodansha USA, which has the license for both the light novels and manga, describes the story as:
Mitsuha Yamano falls off a cliff, at which point she finds herself transported to some sort of medieval European fantasy world! While there, during a battle with some wolves that almost costs her her life, she realizes that she has the ability to come and go between Earth and this new world. Mitsuha decides to use this ability as much as she can. Why? To save up for retirement, of course! She sets her sights on saving eighty thousand gold coins–and this is the story of her schemes to get there!
Hiroshi Tamada (Gibiate assistant director) is directing the show with Akihiko Inari (Inazuma Eleven GO: Galaxy scriptwriter) as series composer and Yuuki Fukuchi (Otherside Picnic sub-character designer) as character designer. Felixfilm is the animation production company.
Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World For My Retirement began as a web novel on Shousetsuka ni Narou in 2015. The light novels are published under Kodansha’s K Light Novels label.
