No anime or official manga, but there is a manhwa. The art style is quite distinct—lots of dramatic shadows and sharp lines to emphasize the protagonist's other senses. It's the closest visual adaptation we have for now, and it does a solid job capturing the tension of the fights.
Man, I was just searching for this myself the other day! As far as I can tell, 'I Became the Academy's Blind Swordsman' hasn't gotten an anime or a manga adaptation yet. I've been following the webnovel for a while on a few aggregator sites, and there's a manhwa adaptation on some of the usual platforms, but it's definitely not an officially licensed anime or a physical manga you'd find on a shelf.
It's one of those stories that feels super ripe for it, though, you know? The whole premise with the blind swordsman and the academy setting has such a visual flair. I keep half-expecting an announcement every season, but so far, nada. Maybe the manhwa's success will push it over the edge. I'd kill to see that swordplay animated.
Honestly, I'm a bit skeptical about this getting an anime any time soon. The web novel and manhwa are definitely out there, but I think it's still a tier below the real breakout hits that get fast-tracked for animation. The manhwa art is decent, but the pacing can be a little slow sometimes.
Maybe if the source material keeps gaining traction for another year or two. Right now, you're better off just reading the manhwa chapters if you want the visual version. The fight scenes are handled pretty well there, even if it's not full animation.

Strength is everything in our world. I was born without it. My name is Maeve Nightwhisper—the royal family’s shame. I can’t shift. I don’t heal like a true Alpha. I was never meant to rule. That future belonged to my twin brother, Reeve. Until he was poisoned the night before enrolling at Lycan Spirit Academy. If the academy discovers the heir is dead, our uncle Garson claims the throne by dawn. So I bury my brother and become him. I cut my hair, bind my chest, suppress my scent, and enter the all-male academy under Reeve’s name. One injury that heals too slowly, one slip in the communal showers, one crack in my control, and I’m exposed. The academy is a battlefield disguised as a school. Ranking matches are merciless. Alphas dominate or get crushed. I can’t overpower them, so I awaken the Forbidden Arts—an outlawed technique once practiced only by women of my bloodline. They call me weak. Until I start winning. Now Alaric, the Academy’s Sword Bearer, watches me like prey. Dorian, the potions prodigy, looks at me like a secret he’s desperate to uncover. Then the Mate Bond snaps. If they discover I’m Maeve... The throne won’t be the only thing I lose.

Man, that one’s a bit of a moving target. The webnovel 'I Became the Academy’s Blind Swordsman' is a Korean original, and I found the official English translation on a platform called Wuxiaworld for a while. They had a pretty good, clean translation. But last I checked, it got pulled from there. It might have been licensed by a different publisher.
Your best bet right now is to check places like Webnovel or maybe Tapas. The landscape for these serials shifts constantly, with rights changing hands. I tried a few aggregator sites in desperation once, but the translations were a mess, full of weird idioms that just broke the immersion. I’d honestly wait for it to pop up on a legit app again—the reading experience is just smoother with proper chapter formatting and consistent updates.
It’s a shame, because the premise is so cool. I really liked how they handled the sensory magic to compensate for the blindness.
