October 20, 2025
Get ready to fall in love with the most adorable troublemaker in the Underworld. Shortcat has acquired the rights to adapt The Adventures of the Demon King’s Daughter into a vertical anime, and it is pure heartwarming chaos.
The story follows Jo Ara, who is given a second chance at life and reborn as Irene, the cherished newborn daughter of the southern demon king. After a painful past, Irene finally gets what she always wanted: a father who adores her, a world full of magic, and adventure around every corner. Add a snarky angel godmother, a stubborn demon godfather, and a whole realm of threats for her father to battle, and you have a fantasy that is equal parts cozy and thrilling.
This is one of the most famous Korean fantasy series in the world for a reason. It has gathered 53.4 million views on Korea’s number one platform and holds a near perfect 9.9 out of 10 rating across more than 125,000 reviews. That kind of devotion is exactly why we wanted to bring it to screen.
Irene’s adventures are coming to Shortcat as vertical anime. If there is a story you want us to animate next, our community poll is where you make it happen, because here, the fans decide.
