The
official website for the anime adaptation of Yukinobu Tatsu's DAN DA DAN manga
revealed two new members of the voice cast who will join the series' highly
anticipated second season.
Two New
Paranormal Faces
The new
characters announced are:
Hiroyuki
Yoshino will play Manjirō, a priest at the Tsuchinoko Shrine with the curious
dream of becoming a "Bootuber."
Naomi Ōzora
will voice Chiquitita, son of the enigmatic Dover Demon.
Both
characters will bring even more eccentricity to a series that already
skillfully blends the paranormal, supernatural battles, and teen romantic
comedy.
Premiere
Date and Special Screenings
The second
season of DAN DA DAN will premiere on Japanese television on July 3, as part of
the Super Animeism Turbo programming block on MBS and TBS. In Spain (UTC+2),
this is equivalent to the early hours of Wednesday, July 3.
Ahead of
its official premiere, a pre-screening event will be held on June 29 at United
Cinemas Toyosu, featuring appearances by the main cast.
In
addition, the film DAN DA DAN: EVIL EYE, which compiles the first three
episodes of the new season, will hit theaters in North America this Friday,
following its Asian premiere (outside Japan) on May 30 and its next European
screening this Saturday.
The Team
Behind the Paranormal Mayhem
The new
season is once again being directed by Science SARU, with Fūga Yamashiro and
Abel Góngora as directors. The main cast returns, including Mutsumi Tamura as
the voice of Evil Eye (Jashi). The opening song, titled “Kakumei Dōchū” (In the
Midst of the Revolution), will be performed by Aina The End.
