J-Novel Club Announces the Licensing of “The Unwanted Undead Adventurer”
Classic rpg fantasy with a twist: You are the basic skeleton!
SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS – February 26th, 2018 – J-Novel Club LLC is proud to announce the acquisition of “The Unwanted Undead Adventurer” from OVERLAP, Inc. The first half of volume 1 is available on j-novel.club to read today, along with a free preview! The E-Book for volume 1 will go on sale in late April of 2018.
The Unwanted Undead Adventurer is the official English title for the series Nozomanu Fushi no Boukensha, which is a brand new series that just started being published in late 2017 and currently has 2 volumes out in Japan. With an art style that’s pure high fantasy and an adventurer-turned-skeleton who is forced to work his way up the monster evolutionary ladder in the hopes of retaking his humanity back, it’ll scratch that it for a dungeon-diving, progression based story. It’s also being turned into a manga serializing in OVERLAP’s Comic Gardo online magazine.

Announced Title List:
The Unwanted Undead Adventurer by Yu Okano, Illustrations by Jaian
望まぬ不死の冒険者 Worldwide English Digital Rights
Rentt Faina, a twenty-five-year-old adventurer, has been hacking away at monsters for a decade. However, without much talent for the job, Rentt finds himself stuck hunting Slimes and Goblins for meager amounts of coin every day. Little does he know, all this is about to change when he comes across a seemingly undiscovered path in the Labyrinth of the Moon’s Reflection.
What awaits him at the end of the path, however, is neither treasure nor riches, but a legendary dragon that wastes no time swallowing him whole! Waking up a short time later, Rentt finds himself not quite dead, but not very alive either— He is nothing more than a pile of bones! Armed with nothing but his trusty sword, tool belt, and ghoulish new looks, Rentt sets off on his quest as a newly reborn Skeleton to achieve Existential Evolution, hoping to one day return to civilization with a more human form.
Will Rentt succeed, or will the labyrinth consume him for the rest of his un-death…?
