It’s not in the database yet but Funimation is expected to get She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man.
The latest trailer, the fourth so far, is out with more cast revealed and English subtitled. Toggle that YouTube caption button to see what’s going on.
The “she” in the title is important as the anime is a gender-swap isekai in which a gamer guy wakes up in a computer game as a female.
IMDB describes the story;
Sakimori Kagami plays a VRMMORPG called Arch Earth Online. He is a veteran player with the name and appearance similar to an elderly bearded wizard from a certain book about a ring. One day he purchases an appearance change item as a last resort to spend expiring currency and gets the idea of choosing what he would want to look like if his character was ever a girl. Falling asleep should have suspended the game, but Kagami wakes up still online and feels the game has gotten a bit more realistic.
That pretty much agrees with the synopsis of the English language comic that Seven Seas has on license at ComiXology.
The anime is due to start in Japan on the 11th of January. Funimation hasn’t confirmed when it’ll air, but the platform is more likely to delay than Crunchyroll to release the English dub as well as subtitled version. We should find out soon enough.
