The worlds of mobile gaming and anime just collided in a surprising way. Supercell, the team behind Clash of Clans, released a new promotional poster that directly pays tribute to the famous anime series Re:Zero – Starting Life in Another World. Fans of the show noticed the reference immediately and social media is now buzzing with excitement.
The poster arrived as part of the game’s ongoing “Anime Fury Season 2,” a month-long event packed with anime-style content. But instead of just generic anime tropes, Supercell chose to recreate one of Re:Zero’s most popular visuals, swapping out the original characters with familiar faces from the game.
Clash of Clans Replaces Characters With Barbarian King and Archer Queen
The tribute poster puts Barbarian King and Archer Queen in the center of the frame. Other Clash of Clans heroes fill out the rest of the lineup. The setup directly mirrors a well-known piece of Re:Zero artwork that fans recognize right away.
But the developers did not stop at just copying the art style. They added small details that show they understand the source material. The famous subtitle of Re:Zero, “Starting Life in Another World,” got changed to “Starting Life in Another Village.” This small twist fits perfectly with Clash of Clans’ village-building gameplay.
The poster also includes the line “Who are you?” This is a famous quote from the anime that longtime fans know very well. Seeing that phrase on a Clash of Clans poster confirmed for many that the developers were making a direct reference on purpose.
Social Media Reactions From Anime and Gaming Fans
After the poster went online, fans flooded social media with their reactions. Many players who also watch anime expressed joy at seeing two of their favorite things come together. Some comments showed disbelief that a game as big as Clash of Clans would reference Re:Zero specifically.
One fan wrote:
“I never expected to see Re:Zero referenced in Clash of Clans of all places. This is wild.”
Others praised Supercell for paying attention to the small details. The creative team did not give vague hints that forced fans to connect the dots. Instead, they made a clear, respectful nod to the series that viewers appreciated.
Why This Reference Matters for Re:Zero Fans
Re:Zero has stayed one of the most popular isekai anime over the past ten years. The show helped a whole new generation of viewers get into the isekai genre. It introduced memorable characters like Subaru Natsuki and Emilia and delivered a story that left a real mark on audiences.
Seeing a major global mobile game acknowledge the series shows how big Re:Zero has become. Not every anime gets this kind of recognition from one of the biggest gaming brands in the world. A decade ago, a crossover like this might have seemed too niche. But today, companies are more open to making these kinds of references.

Supercell has a history of adding anime-inspired content to their games. But this specific Re:Zero reference stands out because of how directly it pays tribute. The developers did not just create something that felt vaguely anime. They picked a specific show and recreated its specific art style and famous quotes.
The reaction from fans has been mostly positive. Many hope this is not the only time Clash of Clans references a popular anime. Some players are already asking which series could be next.
