Malevolent Spirits: Mononogatari TV Anime Reveals Two More Cast Members

With a grim expression on his face, Kunato Hyoma wields a pair of mystic foci in a scene from the upcoming Malevolent Spirits: Mononogatari TV anime.

 

Two more cast members have been announced for Malevolent Spirits: Monogatari, an upcoming TV anime based on the supernatural action manga by Onigunsou about a young man who may have to learn to work with the otherworldly spirits whom he is tasked with hunting down. The new cast members (pictured below, from left to right) include:

 

  • Kai voiced by Taiten Kusunoki.
  • And Itsuki voiced by Azusa Tadokoro.

 

Character settings for Kai and Itsuki from the upcoming Malevolent Spirits: Mononogatari TV anime. Kai is a tall man with long, disheveled black hair who wears a half-fastened kimono over a pair of pajamas as well as sandals with socks. Itsuki is a small young woman with blonde hair in a pageboy haircut who wears a Gothic black dress with a short cloak fastened at her neck by a pink ribbon, dark stockings, and black dress shoes.

The original Malevolent Spirits: Mononogatari manga is serialized in Shueisha’s Ultra Jump manga magazine, and an English language version is also in-development from Seven Seas Entertainment. Crunchyroll describes the story of Malevolent Spirits: Mononogatari as follows:

 

Filled with rage against spirits known as tsukumogami, Kunato Hyoma is sent to live with Nagatsuki Botan to help him see a different side. Though both are part of a clan that return the spirits back to their world with divine powers, their experiences with the otherworldly vessels are vastly different. Kunato, robbed of a loved one, and Nagatsuki, saved by them. Can she get through to him?
