Lots of upcoming anime have gotten release dates over the past few weeks. The latest is A Playthrough of a Certain Dude’s VRMMO Life, which recently revealed its October release date via a new trailer.
On top of the release date, the VRMMO Life anime trailer also highlighted the series’ cast and showed off brand-new footage.
While it may not be a household name among anime fans, this upcoming anime might be a promising watch, especially given its impressive voice cast.
VRMMO Life Anime Features a Stacked Voice Cast
A Playthrough of a Certain Dude’s VRMMO Life is an upcoming anime by Maho Film, the studio behind shows such as I'm the Villainess, So I'm Taming the Final Boss and By the Grace of the Gods.
As its title implies, this anime follows a man who plays a popular VRMMO game, though it’s a more chill and lighthearted entry into the genre.
Even though it’s not a particularly unique series, the show does have an impressive voice cast that’s filled with lots of popular voice actors, including:
- Kaito Ishikawa (Tobio Kageyama in Haikyu!!) as Earth
- Daisuke Namikawa (Hisoka Morow in Hunter x Hunter) as Taichi Tanaka
- Reina Ueda (Kanao Tsuyuri in Demon Slayer) as Fairy Queen
- Tasuku Hatanaka (Denki Kaminari in My Hero Academia) as Zwei
- Miho Okasaki (Rimuru Tempest in That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime) as Milly
