The TV anime Junket Bank, set to premiere in October 2026, has revealed additional voice actors. The two new voice actors are Wataru Hatano as Keiichi Shishigami and Daisuke Hirakawa as Reiji Murasame.
The series is based on the manga of the same name by Kazuki Tanaka, serialized in Weekly Young Jump. The story revolves around a bank that secretly operates a casino. The young bank employee Akira Mitarai is transferred to the Special Tasks Division and plunges into a world of high-risk gambling filled with eccentric personalities.
Keiichi Shishigami, voiced by Wataru Hatano, is an investor and gambler who faces off against the protagonist Shin Mafutsu in the game "Whimsical Lucy." He makes debtors kneel before him and worship him like a king. Despite his arrogant demeanor, he possesses a calculating and cautious side. Hatano describes his role as someone who, among the insane players, most closely adopts the perspective of a normal reader and fights against the madness with pointed comments.
Reiji Murasame, voiced by Daisuke Hirakawa, is a doctor who competes in the game "Sound of Silence." He believes that humans cannot hide their true selves and exposes lies based on physical reactions. Hirakawa emphasizes the captivating artwork, unpredictable plot developments, and strong characters as the special strengths of the source material. He feels a sense of duty in working on the series to transfer the gripping atmosphere of the original into animation.
Previously announced main roles include: Shin Mafutsu voiced by Soma Saito, and Akira Mitarai voiced by Rikuya Yasuda. Saito praised the psychological duels and unpredictable twists, while Yasuda highlighted the development of his curiosity-driven character.
The series is directed by Seiji Kishi, with the script written by Makoto Fukami. Character design is by Masayoshi Sasa, and music is composed by Taku Iwasaki. The animation is produced by Studio CUE.
Broadcasting begins in October 2026 on TV Tokyo and its affiliate stations, every Monday at midnight. The official website is accessible at junketbank-anime.com. Additionally, a collaboration visual with the anime LIAR GAME has already been released. The manga currently spans 21 volumes, with volume 22 set to be released on July 17, 2026.
