What is The Holy Grail of Eris about?
The Holy Grail of Eris anime is based on the fantasy suspense light novel series written by Kujira Tokiwa and illustrated by Yu-nagi. The series was published by SB Creative and Drecom Media. It received a manga adaptation with artwork by Hinase Momoya.
Yen Press, which licenses the official English version of The Holy Grail of Eris light novels, shared a description for the series:
As a viscount’s daughter, Constance Grail is an ordinary girl whose only notable trait is sincerity, leaving her with no real options when someone steals her fianc and falsely accuses her of petty theft at a ball. While Connie awaits her undeserved punishment, a ghost appears to offer a bargain. The spirit is none other than Scarlett Castiel, a noblewoman once praised for her beauty, lineage, and undeniable charisma-and executed some ten years earlier for her wicked deeds. When Connie accepts this proposal, she is possessed by the infamous spirit who instantly turns the tide on her tormenter, thus saving the hapless girl from her miserable fate. It’s never wise striking a deal without knowing exactly what you’ve committed to, though…or you might find yourself bound to a ghost dead set on revenge against her own enemies!
