|Main cast and character information announced!

Kuroi Tsutomuka CV: Maeda Kaori

A hira researcher who belongs to the evil secret society Agastya. （She is dedicated to her work and has no interest in improving her girl power. She has been trying to develop a monster with ideas not bound by existing concepts, but she has yet to defeat her nemesis, Blader, the God of Swords.

Wolf Beate CV: Satomi Amano

A sad werewolf monster was initially developed as a werewolf but was turned into a beautiful girl by the group leader. His mentality is that of a junior high schoolboy. He is assigned to the development department and is at the mercy of reckless behavior. He becomes conscious of Kuroitsu, whom he often works with, as a member of the opposite sex. Kuroitsu, who he often works with.

Dr. Satamaki CV: Yuichiro Umehara

His real name is Hajime Satamaki. He is in charge of the development of Agastya, and always wears a lab coat and A.R. goggles. He is not very attached to anything other than his research and is a fantastic person but sometimes gets overwhelmed by deadlines. When he takes off his goggles, his true face is surprisingly duplicitous.

Akashic CV: M・A・O

The leader of the evil secret society Agastya. She may look and act like a young girl, but her abilities are the strongest in the organization. She tends to work on the spur of the moment, and one word from her can suddenly change the direction of the organization and the concept of the monsters, often shaking Kuroizu and the others around.

Megistos CV: Toru Inada

The chief strategist and brains of Agastya. He has a lot of charisma and is the de facto decision-maker for the organization. Due to his position, he sometimes disagrees with Kuroizu on the development of monsters, but he is very considerate of his subordinates. In a sense, he is the ideal boss for an evil organization.

Kenshin Blader / Kenji Satamaki CV: Takuatsu Terashima

A righteous transforming hero. His true identity is Kenji Satamaki, a young man who works part-time at a bento shop. His personality is honest and sincere, and he is a promising young man with a burning desire for justice, but because of his earnestness, he is entirely immune to women. He is the younger brother of Dr. Agastya Satamaki.

|Comments from the cast have arrived!

Comment by Kaori Maeda as Touka Kuroitsu

I’ve been asked to play the role of Touka Kuroitsu! It’s an evil organization, but I’m energized every day by everyone’s daily struggles.
I’m honored to be involved in such excellent work! I’ll do my best to keep up with Ms. Kuroizu’s efforts!

Comment by Satomi Amano as Wolf Beate

I am Satomi Amano, and I will be playing the role of Wolf Bate in Miss KUROITSU from the Monster Development Department.
I’ve been captivated by the world of the secret society Agastya since I first read the story, which depicts a new kind of evil organization that develops monsters as a job. I’m pleased to be involved in such fantastic work!

Wolf-kun is a junior high schoolboy. He’s a junior high school boy inside, but I love the fact that he tries his best to do his job while being pushed around by Mr. Kuroitsu and Dr. Satamaki, who are working adults.

I hope I can bring out a lot of that. I hope that everyone will enjoy the fun of the original story and the unique pleasure of the anime to the fullest!
And please support Kuroizu and her friends as they move!

Comment by Yuichiro Umehara as Dr. Satamaki

All things have their creators, like Mr. Kuroitsu and his friends, and are made possible by the efforts of those who are not visible to the public. This work is a story of such creators.
The subject matter is special effects and heroes, but I think it’s work you can enjoy as a company employee.

It is a work that can be enjoyed easily, and I hope many people will watch it.

Comment by M.A.O. as Akashic

I’m M. A. O., and I’ll be playing the role of Akashic.
Akashic is the leader of the secret society Agastya, but she looks like an adorable girl, which is an attractive gap!
As the organization’s head, she acts with dignity, but I will do my best to express her innocence and cuteness!

Comment from Toru Inada as Megistos

If you know me at all, you’re probably thinking. If you know me at all, you’re probably thinking, “This looks like something Toru Inada would like.
That’s exactly right! I love it!
It’s an extraordinary work full of fun, homage, and respect for special effects.

I never thought we would be able to work together in an anime! I’m always excited to see people I never thought I’d be able to meet in anime.
This is a masterpiece that is sure to cause a tremor in tokusatsu fans but will also be enjoyed by anime fans. Don’t miss every episode!

Comment by Takuatsu Terashima as Kenji Satamaki, Kenshin Blader

So, a hero in a film starring an evil organization means you’re a villain!

All right, let’s kick his ass! But in reality, it is heartwarming work close to the hearts of working people, and reading the original story gave me a gentle feeling.

It’s beautiful work that will energize everyone for tomorrow! Please look forward to it!
