Chances slim for another Dragon Quest-related anime
That doesn't necessarily mean there's going to be a Dragon Quest anime in the future. It also doesn't necessarily mean there won't.
"The players themselves have always been the main characters in the Dragon Quest series, and I think that each person who has played a game in the Dragon Quest series has a unique emotional experience. We've tried to turn Dragon Quest and spin-offs of it into anime before, but I think it's difficult to create an anime that can really resonate with each player's unique feelings." - Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2 producer Taichi Inuzuka
So adapting the series into an anime might be a bit tough, but what about that live-action collaboration that's in the works?
"Everyone here, including Yuji Horii, thinks of the drama not as a copy but as an original creation that pays homage to the Dragon Quest series. Also, Yuji Horii likes the types of jokes that appear in the drama."
