Anime Adaptation of Under the Oak Tree

Anime Adaptation of Under the Oak Tree

A flawless love story of the flawed. That is the tagline of the beautiful manhwa series Under the Oak Tree, a story of a fragile, young woman named Maximilian Croix, who is abandoned by her husband, Riftan Calypse, the morning after their wedding night when he leaves to fight in a campaign. Three years later, he returns and Maxi is terrified that he won’t want her anymore, but much to her surprise, he does. This beautiful story is currently being shown as a manhwa series on the website Manta Comics, but it would be a true service to its fans if it were adapted into an anime series. There are some, for a lack of a better term, suggestive scenes in this story, but I think if they were toned down just a bit, this story would make for a great anime. It connects to people who have rough upbringings and are struggling to navigate life, and an anime adaptation would be a great way for more people to know about it. We the fans of this series and fans of anime humbly ask the people at Manta Comics to partner with an anime studio to adapt this wonderful story into an anime series.
