"Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai" is originally a manga with the same title, which started to be serialized in the "Weekly Shonen Jump" magazine in 1989 as the first long-term serialization of the role-playing video game "Dragon Quest" series.
"Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai", which has sold a total of 47 million copies of its manga, has been adapted into a completely new anime about 30 years after the serialization began. The story of friendship and growth of Dai and his friends is expressed through a new hybrid of CG and animation techniques.
The cast features six members: Tanezaki Atsumi, voice of the protagonist and young boy Dai, who dreams of becoming a hero; Toyonaga Toshiyuki as Pop, a young magician who becomes Dai's friend; Komatsu Mikako as Maam, a priest-warrior girl who also becomes Dai's friend; Hayami Saori as Leona, the beautiful princess of the Kingdom of Papnica; Sakurai Takahiro as Avan, Dai's master; and Kaji Yuuki as Hyunckel, one of the commanders of the army of the Demon King Hadlar.
Additional media contents for "Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai" were also announced.
In particular, the line-up includes three game titles, which are the smartphone RPG "Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai - Tamashii no Kizuna", the action RPG for home console "Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai - Infinity Strash", and the arcade game with collectible trading cards "Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai - Xross Blade".
Furthermore, various products are set to be on sale, including the "Dai Collection Set 1", which contains palm-sized metal miniatures of weapons and items from the show, "Visual Figures", which are 3D display figures with the shape of acrylic cards which beautifully depict all the characters, and "Act Braver", which is a collection of grip-sized figures with movable joints to recreate the special attack poses.
The new TV anime "Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai" will begin airing on TV Tokyo channels in Oct. 2020.
In addition, a newly colored edition of the manga (25 volumes in total) will be published in Oct. for 10 consecutive months. The new cover is illustrated by Inada Kouji, the same illustrator of the original.
<The full commentary is below>
Tanezaki Atsumi (as Dai)
I truly loved "Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai" when I used to watch it as a child. With this great passion for that work, I've always hoped to see a new series of it. I will do my best to make sure that both those who are new to this work and those who had the same passionate feelings about it in the old days will able to enjoy it.
Toyonaga Toshiyuki (as Pop)
My favorite adventure of Dai...
On top of that, I never thought that I would be able to play Pop.
I wish I could tell that to myself as a teenager since I read this manga so many times. "You'll be voicing Pop in the future!".
In that case, you would spill some mucus from your nose as you say, "That's amazing!".
I'll do my best to play my character, including the uncool scenes, the coward scenes, and the scenes full of courage! Medoroaaaaaaa!!
Komatsu Mikako (as Maam)
A world that everyone longed for, a group of characters that gave courage to everyone, a story that inspired many people. I feel very honored to be involved in such a work that can be considered as the Bible of Life. I want to put my heart into it and express the true spirit of Maam through my voice!
Also as a viewer, I'm looking forward to seeing the newly colored "Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai" of the Reiwa era!
Hayami Saori (as Leona)
I feel happy and nervous at the same time of being able to be involved in this work that is loved by so many people.
While enjoying the noble and strong-willed (and sometimes mischievous) Leona, I'll do my best in the dubbing session by joining this great adventure with all the staff and cast members. Let's look forward to the release!
Sakurai Takahiro (as Avan)
My name is Sakurai Takahiro and I will be the voice of Avan.
He is a character who appears to be so mature in terms of thought and interpersonal distance that he earned the saying, "A wise man keeps his knowledge to himself". He learned how to draw his own strength.
I think this is a work that will be nostalgic for our generation, and those in their teens and twenties will be able to find excitement in the fight scenes.
Let's all of us join this great adventure with Dai and his friends!
Kaji Yuuki (as Hyunckel)
I never thought I'd be able to get involved in the "Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai" as a voice actor and even as Hyunckel...! Seriously, I really feel like I'm having a dream. I'm so happy.
When I was a child, I used to read the manga with great excitement and do impressions of its characters. I actually might have used the "Amudo" impression during the audition (laughs).
I will do my performance with great responsibility and pride. Stay tuned for the broadcast!

<Full comments are below>
Seki Tomokazu as Damon Hadlar
I'm really glad to join "Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai" as I have been reading it since it started to be serialized.
At the same time, I'm also nervous to play the role of Hadlar.
Aono-san, who I respect, played Hadlar in the previous work.
I'll try my best in my own way.
Maeno Tomoaki as Crocodine
I really like this work so much that I cannot talk about it enough. I've been dreaming of "Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai" many times since I had an audition.
I'm honored that I can play one of the key roles, Crocodine.
I will try my best and take pride in being a warrior.
Nara Tooru as Flazzard
When I heard that "The Adventure of Dai" will become an anime adaptation in Reiwa, I immediately thought, "I want to play the role of Flazzard!" before I was amazed by the news.
Today, I'm going to play Flazzard for real, which is a great honor!
I will try to play energetically as Flazzard.
Koyasu Takehito as Myst-Vearn
I'm really glad and appreciate that I was chosen to play Myst-Vearn.
I cannot wait to see how mysterious Myst-Vearn appears in an exciting and attractive world.
I will fight for justice as much as I can as The Demon Lord's Army.
Please cheer us up. (laugh)
We will definitely win!! Oh-----!!
Iwata Mitsuo as Zaboera
When I took an audition for the role of Zaboera, I strongly desired as "Wow! I really want to play this character! I will for sure!"
I've never played a typical villain like Zaboera, who is sly, clever, and cunning, so I thought it would be a chance for me.
I was really glad that I won!
I'm very inspired. Please look forward to Zaboera I play!
Hayami Shou as Baran
When I heard that I could join this masterpiece, I was so glad that I
jumped for 5cm with joy.
There are several big fans of The Adventure of Dai around me.
I will play Baran in sincerity for them and for those who will watch for the first time.
Hashi Takaya as Vearn
When I heard that I would play the role in "The Adventure of Dai", I searched the cast for the previous work. I thought "Oh my god!" and I guessed right. Mr. Utsumi Kenji, who has a phenomenal voice, played "Vearn" in the previous work!!
I cannot be compared with him, so what I can do is only to try my best.
I'm also excited to see how "Vearn" is going to be.
