Jack-of-all-trades, kicked out of the hero party… but first in line for an early stream. Yuusha Party o Oidasareta Kiyoubinbou is joining the winter 2026 anime season with ABEMA and d Anime Store streaming episode 1 from January 1 at midnight in Japan—days before the late-night TV run—while the light novel and manga are already waiting for anyone who wants to see how this “useless” support character becomes a so-called all-rounder.
ABEMA gives Yuusha Party o Oidasareta Kiyoubinbou an early midnight slot
The fantasy series Yuusha Party o Oidasareta Kiyoubinbou, known in English as Jack-of-All-Trades, Party of None, will start streaming ahead of Japanese TV on January 1, 2026. ABEMA and d Anime Store both list a 0:00 a.m. JST launch, three days before the hero-party drop-out makes his terrestrial debut on channels like Tokyo MX, BS Nippon TV and ytv from January 4.
Weekly zero-o’clock streams and free catch-up for Japanese viewers
Every Thursday at 0:00, ABEMA’s anime channel will air the newest episode as a free “ahead of TV” broadcast. After that, the latest episode will stay available to watch for free on demand for about a week, while ABEMA Premium and ad-supported ABEMA Premium members can binge the whole series any time once episodes stack up. It’s a very ABEMA-style mix of “try it live” and “then catch up on your own schedule.”
From “handy but useless” to aspiring all-rounder in this isekai story
The story follows Orun Doula, a swordsman who switched jobs to enchanter to plug a gap in the hero party, only to be branded “jack-of-all-trades, master of none” and unceremoniously fired by his childhood-friend leader Oliver. Alone for the first time, Orun leans into the very flexibility he was mocked for, using custom support magic, missing memories and new allies to push toward the “all-rounder” ideal the title promises. Expect a classic “unfairly dumped, quietly broken, comes back stronger” loop with straightforward dungeon-crawling fantasy on top.
Light novel roots in K Ranobe Books and an ongoing manga adaptation
Before the anime, the story began as a web novel and was then picked up by Kodansha Ranobe Books (K Ranobe Books), which has released nine light novel volumes as of late 2025. Illustrator Yuri Kisaragi defines the clean fantasy look, while Yonezou’s manga version runs on the Suiyōbi no Sirius label and has already reached 17 collected volumes, offering a more action-forward take on Orun’s growth and the fallout from his exile.
Picking a starting point in the books before the winter 2026 anime
If you like reading ahead, the light novel’s first volume is the safest starting line—it covers Orun’s expulsion, early solo quests and the core “I’ll show them what this jack-of-all-trades can do” resolve. Readers who prefer visuals can jump into volume 1 of the manga instead; it quickly reaches the same turning point and leans harder into battle layouts and party drama. Meanwhile, the anime’s official site lists ABEMA and d Anime Store as the early streaming homes, with TV stations and a Crunchyroll license lined up for broader exposure as winter 2026 gets underway. Wherever you jump in—midnight streams or paperbacks—you’re watching the same “kicked-out support guy turns the tables” fantasy unfold.
