The TV anime Tougen Anki: Nikko Kegon no Taki-hen — the second season of the dark-fantasy series based on Urushihara Yuki‘s manga serialized in Weekly Shonen Champion (Akita Shoten) — has set its premiere date for October 2, 2026. Alongside the announcement, three additional cast members, a new key visual, and the latest promotional video have been unveiled.
New Cast Members for the Momotaro Organization
The Nikko Kegon no Taki arc introduces new characters belonging to the Momotaro Organization (桃太郎機関), which stands in opposition to the Oni Organization led by Shiki and his allies. The newly announced voice cast is as follows:
- Suzumura Kenichi as Momoura Kaji (桃裏楔)
- Kaji Yuki as Momosuki Wai (桃次歪)
- Taniyama Kisho as Momoo Seiritu (桃尾旋律)
The new PV features these first-time-appearing characters from the arc. The key visual depicts Shiki, Mudano, Yaarashi, and Onikoku-tai captain Todoroki against the backdrop of an eerie research facility.
