Prepare for a truly unique culinary adventure as the highly anticipated TV anime adaptation of Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! has finally unveiled its thrilling main trailer, a captivating new key visual, and officially set its premiere date for October 2, 2025, JST. This imaginative series promises a delectable blend of fantasy, romance, and gourmet themes, inviting viewers into a world where aristocratic tastes clash with societal norms.

At its heart is Melphiera Marchalrayd, a distinguished noblewoman with an unconventional palate: a passionate craving for monster meat. In a society that deems such a delicacy distasteful, Melphiera bravely embarks on a mission to challenge public perception, determined to showcase the extraordinary culinary potential of these exotic ingredients. Her journey takes an intriguing turn with the appearance of the formidable and mysterious "Blood-Mad Duke" Aristide Roger de Galbraith, igniting a romantic subplot fraught with suspense and unexpected twists that will leave audiences eagerly anticipating each episode.

The anime draws its rich narrative from the popular light novel series penned by Kanata Hoshi and brought to life through Peperon's vivid illustrations. Initially a web novel sensation in 2019, the series has since been published under Kodansha’s esteemed K Lanove Books label, with three volumes released between 2021 and 2023. A manga adaptation by Chika Mizube further expanded its reach, cementing its status as a fan favorite.

Helming this exciting adaptation is Asahi Production, with Mutsumi Takeda directing. The creative team also boasts Keiichiro Ochi as series composer and Masato Kato as character designer, ensuring a faithful yet dynamic translation of the source material’s whimsical charm and dramatic depth to the screen. The stellar voice cast features Kanna Nakamura as the determined Melphiera and Taito Ban as the enigmatic Aristide, supported by an ensemble of renowned talents including Takashi Kondo, Nobuhiko Okamoto, Ryohei Kimura, Makoto Furukawa, Daisuke Hirakawa, and Toshiki Masuda. Adding to the immersive experience, the opening theme "Shugary Story" by Avam and the ending theme "Kibo Kodo" by Shunichi Toki promise to enhance the show’s emotional resonance.

Originally slated for an April 2025 debut, the series’ broadcast was strategically postponed to its new October 2 slot, building even greater anticipation. Fans worldwide can look forward to a captivating fantasy saga exploring themes of refined tastes, the courage to defy societal judgment, and an enthralling romance, all seasoned with exquisite monster-meat cuisine. Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! will air on TBS and BS, with Crunchyroll set to stream the series globally, ensuring that this exciting addition to the 2025 fall anime lineup delivers engaging characters and distinct flavors, both literal and narrative, to audiences across the globe.
