Fans of the dark fantasy series Tougen Anki have plenty to celebrate as key cast members prepare for a notable television crossover. Voice actors Kazuki Ura, who brings protagonist Shiki Ichinose to life, and Nobuhiko Okamoto, the voice of Hakuare Nekosaki, are officially scheduled to make a guest appearance on Nippon TV's variety program VS Bullet Train.
The momentum surrounding the adaptation stems from Yura Urushibara's acclaimed manga, serialized in Weekly Shonen Champion since 2020. Reimagining the traditional folklore of Momotaro through the perspective of the demon bloodline, the series has rapidly expanded its readership, surpassing three million copies in cumulative circulation.
Anticipation reached a fever pitch online when Okamoto quoted the official program announcement on social media, playfully referencing the boy band's single Gachi Muchu! with a characteristic remark. The interaction quickly caught the attention of both anime enthusiasts and music fans, drawing enthusiastic replies and trending reactions across digital platforms.
The scheduled broadcast of VS Bullet Train featuring Ura and Okamoto is set to air on October 12, offering viewers a behind-the-scenes dynamic between the talented voice cast members.
