Based on the light novels by Daisuke Aizawa and Tozai, The Eminence in Shadow is being directed by Kazuya Nakanishi (Chivalry of a Failed Knight animation director) at studio Nexus, with series composition by Kanichi Kato (Those Snow White Notes) and character designs by Makoto Iino (Suppose a Kid from the Last Dungeon Boonies moved to a starter town?). The Eminence in Shadow TV anime began on October 5, with Sentai Filmwork simulcasting the series on HIDIVE. Sentai describes the series as such:

 

Some people just aren’t suited to playing the part of the flashy, in-your-face hero or the dastardly, mustache-twirling villain with larger-than-life panache. Instead, they operate in the shadows and pull the strings of society through wit and cleverness. That’s the role Cid wants to play when he’s transported to another world. Cid spins a yarn or three and becomes the unlikely leader of the underground Shadow Garden organization that fights against a menacing cult (which he totally made up). However, there’s a catch even his wild imagination didn’t see coming: the cult he concocted actually exists, and they’re beyond displeased that his power fantasy just got in the way of their evil plans!
