A Herbivorous Dragon of 5000 Years Getting Japanese Dub in 2023, Key Visual Revealed

By Ashley De MesaSeptember 2, 2022

A Herbivorous Dragon of 5000 Years Gets Unfairly Villainized will be having a Japanese TV broadcast to premiere in January 2023. It is going to be the Japanese dub of Bilibili’s Chinese anime adaptation. The key visual is also revealed by its official Twitter account.

There are no announcements yet about the specific airing time and broadcast channels.

The story is about an evil dragon named Ravendia and a slave girl named Reiko. Reiko believed in the legend of an evil dragon as influenced by her fellow villagers. She offered herself as a sacrifice to Ravendia, in exchange for protecting her village from the Demon Lord. Yet Ravendia is a cowardly dragon and has a herbivore diet. He is actually a kind-hearted dragon who prefers peace and quiet. He decided to play along as the evil dragon for Reiko to get rid of her. Unexpectedly, Reiko managed to gain magical abilities mysteriously.
