From “SHAMAN KING”, it’s been announced that Morita Masakazu will be the new cast member, who plays Amidamaru’s best friend! “I’m honored that I could play a part.”

It has been announced that Morita Masakazu will play as an additional cast member for the TV anime “SHAMAN KING”, which will start broadcasting on TV Tokyo from April 2021. At the same time, his comments have arrived.

“SHAMAN KING” is the story of Asakura Yo, one of the “shamans” who can communicate with gods and spirits, who aims to become the “Shaman King”, the king of the stars who controls all things in the universe, and fights in the “Shaman Fight”, which is held once every 500 years to compete for the title.
The new chapter of the original manga “SHAMAN KING THE SUPER STAR” by Takei Hiroyuki is currently being serialized in “Shonen Magazine Edge”.

Morita Masakazu plays Mosuke, a blacksmith who used to be a great friend of Amidamaru’s, and the one who struck Amidamaru’s favorite sword, Harusame, 600 years ago. Morita commented, “Whether you’ve been a fan for a long time or this is your first time, I’m sure you’ll all enjoy this work!”

The TV anime “SHAMAN KING” will start broadcasting in April 2021 on TV Tokyo.

Comments from Morita Masakazu who plays Mosuke
–Could you tell us about the appeal of this work?

I am of the generation that started reading “SHAMAN KING” when it was first serialized.
The word “shaman” itself was something that appeared only briefly in the Japanese or world history, but it was an existence that somehow gave me a sense of ancient romance.
This fascinating existence appears in the present day, which meant exciting enough for me.

–Could you tell us about your enthusiasm for playing as Mosuke?

This work is being produced as a completely new anime. I’m honored that I could play a part in the beginning of it.
Whether you’ve been a fan for a long time or this is your first time, I’m sure you’ll all enjoy this work!
Thank you for your support!
