A new teaser visual has been released for Season 1 of the Skeleton Knight In Another World anime.Released on Skeleton Knight's official website and Twitter, the image shows main characters Ariane, Arc, Ponta and Chiyome all together in front of what appears to be a stand selling strange artifacts. The tweet accompanying the image reads, "A brief moment on the road. The end of the encounter with Chiyome." This visual foreshadows that Arc and his friends will once again be joining forces with Chiyome, a formidable ninja girl and member of the Jinshin clan. The candid smile on Chiyome's face suggests that she will become closer to the main heroes and a permanent member of their team.
