In summer the anime The World's Strongest Rearguard

The full title of the upcoming anime is The World's Strongest Rearguard - Labyrinth Country's Novice Seeker. Below infos and promo.

Corporate slave Arihito Atobe's death in a freak bus accident marks the beginning of his new life as a kind of adventurer called a Seeker. Reborn into a fantasy world, he settles into a previously unknown job class called "rearguard", capable of providing his (all-female) party with critical attack, defense, and recovery support. And it comes with an added bonus: Simply being at the back of the party line increases his companions' fondness for him! Freed from the shackles of corporate life, Arihito is eager to start fresh as a newly minted Seeker!

This is the story of Towa's light novel, Sekai Saikyo no Koei: Meikyukoku no Shinjin Tansakusha (The World's Strongest Rearguard - Labyrinth Country's Novice Seeker), published in 2017 and currently ongoing, and adapted into a manga by Rikizo in 2018.

The series is directed by Yuji Yanase at Maho Film, with Deko Akao in charge of the scripts and Eriko Yanagimoto in charge of the design of the characters.

Awaited in July on Tokyo MX, BS11, and Sun TV, here's a promo:
