Four new cast members have been revealed for Magical Girl Destroyers (known in Japan as Mahou Shoujo Magical Destroyers), an upcoming original TV anime based on artwork by JUN INAGAWA about a group of rebels who fight to protect otaku culture in a corporate-dominated near future Japan. The new cast members include (pictured below from left to right):

Set in a dystopic near future where otaku culture in Japan has been obliterated by a mysterious organization known as “SSC”, Magical Girl Destroyers follows the misdaventures of Otaku Hero—a young revolutionary who loves otaku culture—and Anarchy, Blue, and Pink, a trio of magical girls who admire him. Together they struggle to create “a world where you can say what you like about what you like as much as you like.”
