Shimura Jouji (Tamagotchi!) is directing the anime at OLM studio, and the anime will star:
- Takeuchi Shunsuke as Dennis
- Tachibana Marika as Atelier
- Suzushiro Sayumi as Henrietta
- Ise Mariya as Vivia
- Matsuda Satsumi as Bachel
The anime is based on the Tsuihousha Shokudou e Youkoso! light novel series by Kimikawa Yuuki (Koware Skill de Hajimeru Gendai Dungeon Kōryaku).
Author Kimikawa started the story in 2018 on the Shousetsuka ni Narou website, and Overlap published the first novel with illustrations by Gaou (Nido Tensei Shita Shounen wa S-Rank Boukensha to Shite Heion ni Sugosu) in June 2019 and the third novel in June 2020. Tentai Books licensed the novels and released them in English under the title Welcome to the Outcast’s Restaurant!.
The novel’s story is described below:
Backstabbed by those he considered friends, Dennis has been exiled from one of the strongest guilds around: The Silver Wings Battalion. He doesn’t think much of it, though, as he was dying to use his Level 99 cooking skills anyway. That’s why he decides to leave the city behind and open up a diner in the countryside.
While pursuing his dream, Dennis meets Atrielle, a girl exiled from her noble household and relegated to slavery until he saves her.
The pair open the diner together, and their first client is… an exiled knight from a different guild? How peculiar. But she is not the only customer; a cocky mage and a drastically overworked yet underpaid sage become regulars as well.
The knight brings trouble to the diner at times, but Dennis’s cooking skills and beloved butcher knives cut through trouble and hunger alike!
Thus begins the legend of Dennis and his diner, the talk of the town!
