Monster Meat Anime Release Date Confirmed for Spring 2025

On Monday, October 21, 2024, it was officially announced that the anime series Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! is currently in production, with a projected release set for Spring 2025. This exciting update was confirmed through the official X (formerly known as Twitter) account dedicated to the original light novel series that the anime will adapt.

The X account also unveiled a celebratory illustration marking the announcement of the Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! anime adaptation. This artwork prominently features the two main characters from the light novels: Melphiera Marchalrayd, the series protagonist, alongside Aristide Rogier du Galbraith, known as the Blood-Mad Duke of Galbraith.

Details about the Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! anime are limited to production status and release timeframe

The key visual shared showcases the two characters enjoying a feast centered around monster meat, which is reflected in the title. In the image, Melphiera is depicted savoring a dish, while Aristide can be seen elsewhere in the artwork not participating in the monster meat feast. Sadly, additional details regarding the television adaptation of Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! remain sparse.

Nevertheless, the Spring 2025 release window hints that fans can expect updates about the series in the near future. Upcoming announcements are anticipated to include a trailer, which may reveal at least the voice cast for Melphiera. Furthermore, it could indicate who will voice Aristide Rogier du Galbraith and offer insights into the overarching narrative.

Fans may need to wait until the Spring 2025 anime season to receive further details on the release schedule. It appears that a specific release date or more narrowed time frame for the series will not materialize in 2024.

The anime adaptation of Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! is based on the light novel series authored by Kanata Hoshi with illustrations by Peperon. This series has been in publication since April 2021 and continues to release new volumes. It serves as an adaptation of Hoshi’s original web novel, which started on the Shosetsuka ni Naro site in November 2019 and also remains ongoing.

Additionally, illustrator Chika Mizube has been working on a manga adaptation since March 2021, which is still in progress. Kodansha USA Publishing is releasing this manga in English and provides the following synopsis:

“Melphiera, an earl’s daughter ostracized by the nobility due to her unusual taste for monster-based dishes, hopes to find love at a party. However, she is attacked by a fearsome monster and is rescued by Aristide of Galbraith, the notorious ‘Blood-Mad Duke.’ He soon develops an interest in Melphiera, and to her surprise, he becomes intrigued by her unusual culinary passion! This romantic fantasy is filled with love, battles, and exquisite cuisine!”
