Trillion Game Anime Features Kazuki Kedōin in 4th Character Video – News

Kadokawa revealed the fourth character promotional video for the television anime of Riichirou Inagaki and Ryōichi Ikegami‘s Trillion Game manga on Thursday. The video features the character Kazuki Kedōin, voiced by Hiroki Tōchi. The anime’s staff will release character videos for five consecutive weeks.

The staff also revealed that Shion Wakayama will voice Mizuki, a high school girl who works part time as a secretary for Kedōin.

The staff also revealed that the anime will have a stage presentation at the KyoMAF event on September 21.

The anime will premiere in October on TBS and other channels in Japan.

The anime stars:

Yūzō Satō (Kaiji) is directing the anime at Madhouse. Ryunosuke Kingetsu (Police in a Pod) is overseeing the series scripts. Kei Tsuchiya (Police in a Pod) is designing the characters. Takurō Iga (Asteroid in Love) is composing the music.

The manga centers on the carefree Haru and the serious Gaku, two men who plot to earn a trillion dollars in order to afford anything they might ever want in the world. Haru is an eloquent, persuasive, and confident speaker, which allows him to be in anyone’s good graces. Gaku is an awkward but highly skilled programmer. The two were schoolmates in middle school, and reunite when Gaku’s application to a bank company is rejected.

Inagaki (Eyeshield 21, Dr. Stone) and Ikegami (Crying Freeman) launched the manga in Shogakukan‘s Big Comic Superior magazine in December 2020. Shogakukan published the manga’s ninth compiled book volume on April 30. Viz Media licensed the manga. The manga has more than 1.5 million copies in circulation.

The manga inspired a live-action series adaptation that premiered on the TBS channel and its affiliates in July 2023. Ren Meguro from idol group Snow Man plays protagonist Haru Tennōji, while Hayato Sano plays Manabu “Gaku” Taira. Netflix is streaming the series. The series is also getting a live-action film in 2025. The film will feature a returning cast.
