What will the side story anime’s first episode be about?
A preview video for episode 1 of the upcoming anime series has surfaced online ahead of its release date. It reveals that Bojji and Kaje will continue with their adventures. However, the premiere episode will come with two stories. The first story of the premiere episode, titled The King’s Trick, will show Despa showing a small pimple on his face to Bojji and Kaje. He seems very disturbed by it, as his appearance matters the most to him.
The second story will show Despa motivating Bojji and Kaje to be responsible, so the two friends start working in local shops. However, in the preview, we can see that they do not succeed in impressing people with their work.
So, to see what happens with Bojji and Kaje, you must catch up with the premiere episode that will soon be on your screens.
