About dreamland

dreamland is based on the shōnen manga of the same name by French manga artist Reno Lemaire (Japanese translation by Hara Masato). The story follows Terence, a boy who lost his mother in a fire and has feared flames ever since. One night, in the midst of a nightmare, he becomes lucid — realising he is dreaming — and in that moment overcomes his fear. He awakens as a “dream traveller,” gifted with the power to control fire, and sets off on adventures through the dream world known as Dreamland, carrying the weight of love, friendship, and memories of his late mother. The lead role of Terence is voiced by Hatano Wataru.

Cast Comments

Eguchi Takuya (as Savana)

“I heard the original author is a huge fan of Japanese manga, so the work has a familiar atmosphere for us — yet the French pacing and emotional expression felt refreshingly new to me. I’ve just finished recording episode one, and I’m already excited to see where the story goes. I’ll keep working to find my own way of connecting with Savana.”

Yoshino Hiroyuki (as Saba)

“This is Yoshino, voicing Saba! He seems to be a bit older than the rest of the group, but I’ll leave it to you to enjoy how he fits into everything. There’s still a lot I don’t know, but I’ll do my best to bring the character to life with the information I’m given on set. Look forward to anime dreamland!!”

Tanaka Masahiko (as Jung)

“A legendary former traveller who once journeyed through Dreamland. A mysterious old man who knows the world’s secrets better than anyone. Calm and quiet on the surface, yet he gently guides young travellers onto the right path. …That’s what it says, but he’s still very much a man of mystery. Look forward to seeing what role he plays!”
