## She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man

**She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man** (賢者の弟子を名乗る賢者, *Kenja no Deshi wo Nanoru Kenja*) is a Japanese anime series based on the light novel of the same name by Hirotsugu Ryusen and Fuzichoco. Directed by Keitarou Motonaga at Studio A-CAT, the anime was set to premier in 2021, but was delayed and premiered in January 2022.

## Plot

Sakimori Kagami has woken up in the world of *Arch Earth Online*, a VRMMORPG he's been playing intensely for a long time. The catch? He made some *adjustments* to his character when he last logged on, which he thought he hadn't saved. Instead of his normal avatar of an old, bearded sorcerer, he's in the body of a young woman! Now he must convince the people of this world that he–she–is a pupil of the wise man who vanished without a trace thirty years ago.

## Annotation

1. **^** It is used for greetings on web bulletin boards, etc. because Mira looks in the mirror or something that reflects herself and mutters "I'm cute".
2. **^** During the 30 years of the work, some people claim to be the disciples of the missing nine wise men, but it seems that they were "fake self-proclaimed" except for Mira.
3. **^** It takes more than 2 hours even if it is 10,000 times, so it takes more than 20 hours if it is 100,000 times.
