Shin Oishinbo TV Anime Reveals Main Cast & Staff Members, 2027 Debut – News

The official website for Shin Oishinbo (New Oishinbo), the new television anime series of storywriter Tetsu Kariya and artist Akira Hanasaki‘s Oishinbo manga, opened on Thursday and revealed the anime’s teaser visual, main cast and staff members, and its 2027 debut.

The anime will star:

Yōhei Azakami as Shirō Yamaoka

Hitomi Sasaki as Yūko Kurita

Akio Ōtsuka as Yūzan Kaibara

Ken’ichi Nishida (Good Bye, Dragon Life, Papuwa, Poka Poka Mori no Rascal) is directing the anime at Synergy SP and Vega Entertainment. Takahiro Nagano (Reincarnated as a Sword two seasons, Plannosaurus Gachi Koseibutsu Bu) is in charge of series scripts, and Nozomi Kawashige (Good Bye, Dragon Life) is designing the characters. Shinei Animation is in charge of production.

The duo originally launched the manga in 1983. Shogakukan published the 111th volume in December 2014. The manga has been on hiatus since 2014.

The manga depicts the “fierce food showdown” between the newspaper Tōzai Shimbun’s “Ultimate Menu” and gourmand Yuzan Kaibara’s “Supreme Menu.”

A previous television anime adaptation from Shinei Animation aired for 136 episodes from 1988 to 1992. The anime also includes two additional specials.

Viz Media has published five volumes of Oishinbo on its VizManga.com digital manga service and Viz Manga App, and has also published the volumes in print.

The manga has also inspired several live-action series and a live-action film.
