Where to Watch the Anime
The first season of The Eminence in Shadow anime is available to stream right now on HIDIVE. The Eminence in Shadow Season 2 will also be available on HIDIVE with English dubs and subs. Season 2 will have a total of 12 episodes. For fans who don’t want to wait, The Eminence in Shadow: Master of Garden game is also available right now for Android and iOS.
Lastly, here’s an overview of the anime series via HIDIVE:
Some people just aren’t suited to playing the part of the flashy, in-your-face hero or the dastardly, mustache-twirling villain with larger-than-life panache. Instead, they operate in the shadows and pull the strings of society through wit and cleverness. That’s the role Cid wants to play when he’s transported to another world. Cid spins a yarn or three and becomes the unlikely leader of the underground Shadow Garden organization that fights against a menacing cult (which he totally made up). However, there’s a catch even his wild imagination didn’t see coming: the cult he concocted actually exists, and they’re beyond displeased that his power fantasy just got in the way of their evil plans!
