A truly labyrinthian adventure awaits fans this summer with today’s announcement that new fantasy comedy series DUNGEON PEOPLE (ダンジョンの中のひと, Danjon no Naka no Hito, 2024) will stream exclusively on HIDIVE starting in July. Based on the popular seinen manga by Futami Sui, DUNGEON PEOPLE joins the slate of Summer 2024 titles set to simulcast on AMC Network’s HIDIVE anime streaming service. Ahead of the series’ debut next month, HIDIVE will host the North American premiere of DUNGEON PEOPLE Episode 1 on July 6 at Anime Expo 2024 in Los Angeles, Calif.
“We’re excited to brings DUNGEON PEOPLE to fans this summer as part of HIDIVE’s exclusive simulcast line-up,” said John Ledford, President of HIDIVE. “This new fantasy comedy will entertain subscribers with a dungeon-delving world of adventure that they won’t want to miss!”
On the hunt for her missing father, master thief Clay heads off into an unexplored dungeon—but much to her surprise, the dungeon’s caretaker offers her a job! Thievery hasn’t worked for her thus far, so perhaps this new career path will take her closer to finding her dad. But change is never easy. From interviewing monster guardians to positioning traps to confound would-be explorers, Clay has a lot to learn about what it means to be one of the dungeon people.
DUNGEON PEOPLE is adapted from the manga title created by Futami Sui that launched in June 2020 and is currently serialized in Futabasha’s Web Action Comics. The English language version of the manga is published by Seven Seas Entertainment. DUNGEON PEOPLE is directed by Sayaka Yamai together with writing by Toshimitsu Takeuchi, character design by Yumi Nakayama and production by OLM. The series stars Sayaka Senbongi as Clay and Sayumi Suzushiro as Bell.
