The series takes place in a fantasy school setting, centered around an ancient Dark Lord who awakens in the form of a 10 year-old child and meets a host of lovely heroines.
This time, the scene previews and synopsis for episode 4 have been released.
■Episode 4: “The Stirrings of a Bitter Grudge”
Riselia finally awakens her Holy Sword, and then she asks Leonis to train her. Leonis does not hesitate at the opportunity to strengthen one of his followers, so the two end up training together rigorously.
Meanwhile, the administration bureau holds a strategy meeting. Everyone present is concerned about a strange investigation report that was received, and they decide to implement a policy of gathering more information while also going on high alert, in case anything should happen.
Elsewhere, Riselia takes Leonis out to a certain restaurant, telling him, “I want to treat you to a meal as my way of saying thanks for the training.” It’s here where Leonis bears witness to a different side of Riselia..

TV Anime The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy
■Synopsis
As the most powerful of the Dark Lords, Leonis sealed his body away to one day exact his revenge. However, when he is awakened after 1000 years of slumber, he finds that his body has reverted to that of a 10 year-old boy!
“How could this be?!” He wonders to himself, when a young woman discovers him.
“How’d you get stuck in here, little guy? Don’t worry, I’ll protect you,” the young woman says, trying to comfort the awakened Dark Lord.
This girl, Riselia, is a student at Excalibur Academy, and Leonis is astonished when he finds out how drastically his world has changed. Hearing about such things as the unknown and hostile Voids, the Seventh Assault Garden, and the absurdly powerful Excalibur, Leonis is totally lost in his new surroundings but ultimately enrolls in Excalibur Academy.
In a future world that has lost its connection to magic, the mightiest Dark Lord joins forces with beautiful heroines in this fantasy school story!
