The English-langauge voice cast for the upcoming animated series Uzumaki, Adult Swim’s adaptation of Junji Ito’s supernatural horror manga, was announced at Anime Expo. Created in partnership with Production IG USA, the series is currently in production.
Synopsis: “Let’s leave this town together,” asks Shuichi Saito, a former classmate of Kirie Goshima, a high school girl who was born and grew up in Kurouzu-cho. Everything from a strange whirlwind, billowing smoke from the crematorium, and the residents is turning into spirals. People’s eyes spin in whirls, a tongue spirals, and the bodies twist unnaturally. In an attempt to escape the curse of the spirals, Kirie decides to flee from Kuouzu-cho, but can she get away from this turmoil?
The newly announced English voice actors and previously confirmed Japanese cast includes:
- Abby Trott / Uki Satake as Kirie Goshima
- Robbie Daymond / Shin-ichiro Miki as Shuichi Saito
- Cristina Vee / Mariya Ise as Azami Kurotani
- Doug Stone / Toshio Furukawa as Kirie’s Dad
