Chainsaw Man Reveals Voice Actors And Creative Team

By Evan Valentine

Chainsaw Man fans have been waiting for any new footage of the upcoming anime adaptation for some time. The day has finally arrived when Studio MAPPA has released a new trailer for the story of Denji and his fellow devil hunters. Along with the footage, MAPPA has also dropped a number of voice actors that will help in bringing Tatsuki Fujimoto's story to life and a number of creators that will help in bringing the anime adaptation to the small screen.      

The cast itself will be led by Kikunosuke Toya (Tokyo 24th Ward) as Denji, Tomori Kusunoki (Tiger & Bunny) as Makima, Shogo Sakata (Pokemon & My Hero Academia) as Aki Hayakawa, and Fairouz Ai (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean) as Power. Ryū Nakayama (Black Clover and Jujutsu Kaisen) is the anime's director, and Hiroshi Seko (Attack on Titan) is the scriptwriter. A precise release date hasn't been revealed for the start of the bloody series but considering how popular the manga has become, fans are on the edge of their seats waiting for the news of when they can expect the anime's arrival.

If you haven't caught the latest trailer for Chainsaw Man's anime adaptation, you can watch it below via the Official Twitter Account for the series: 

The number of episodes hasn't been confirmed for season one of Chainsaw Man, leaving many to wonder how much of the manga the MAPPA production will cover. Needless to say, there are some big and bloody battles that have been itching to hit the world of animation since the series first spawned from creator Tatsuki Fujimoto.

The official description for Chainsaw Man's anime from Crunchyroll, if you want to learn more about the series, reads as such:

"Denji is a teenage boy living with a Chainsaw Devil named Pochita. Due to the debt his father left behind, he has been living a rock-bottom life while repaying his debt by harvesting devil corpses with Pochita. One day, Denji is betrayed and killed. As his consciousness fades, he makes a contract with Pochita and gets revived as "Chainsaw Man"-- a man with a devil's heart."
