Fate/Grand Order: Fujimaru Ritsuka wa Wakaranai Anime Shorts Make YouTube Debut
The official Fate/Grand Order YouTube channel now has a weekly dose of comedy for fans with the launch of the Fate/Grand Order: Fujimaru Ritsuka wa Wakaranai anime shorts, which adapt the comedy manga by Tsuchida. The first two episodes went live this weekend, and new episodes are set to stream on the channel every Tuesday.
The shorts have Nobunaga Shimazaki returning to voice Ritsuka Fujimaru, and episodes are currently only available in Japanese without English subtitles. Other cast members making an appearance so far include Rie Takahashi as Mash Kyrielight, Ayako Kawasumi as Fou, Nobutoshi Canna as Cú Chulainn, Maaya Sakamoto as Leonardo Da Vinci, Takahiro Mizushima as Sherlock Holmes, Kenjiro Tsuda as Sigurd and Yumiri Hanamori as Nemo Marine.
Tsuchida—who launched the manga on Kadokawa’s TYPE-MOON Comic Ace website back in June 2020—directs and writes the shorts, while also handling character designs, technical direction, editing and compositing director of photography duties at production house DLE. You can see the first two episodes embedded below.
