Crunchyroll announced on Wednesday that it will release an English dub for the television anime of Riichirou Inagaki and Ryōichi Ikegami‘s Trillion Game manga on Thursday.
The English dub cast includes:
Jason Lord is the voice director, and Susie Nixon is the producer. Heather Walker adapts the script. Andrew Tipps is the audio mixer, and Victor Acosta is the audio engineer.
The anime debuted on October 3 on TV in Japan and on streaming services with the first two episodes. Crunchyroll is streaming the anime as it airs in North America, Central America, South America, Europe, Africa, Oceania, the Middle East, and CIS. The anime will air for two consecutive cours (quarter of a year), for a half-year run.
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. &TEAM perform the opening theme song “Beat the Odds,” and Klang Ruler perform the ending theme song “Unbelievable.”
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 that will open on February 14, 2025. The film will feature a returning cast.
