The official Twitter/X of the upcoming Inherit the Winds TV anime series have announced the addition of two new cast members. A premiere date for the anime has yet to be announced.
The new cast members include Koki Uchiyama as Hijikata Toshizo and Yuichi Nakamura as Kondo Isami.
Inherit the Winds was first announced at Aniplex Online Fest in September 2025. Tomohiro Kawamura (Air Bound) is directing the anime series. The story is inspired by the Jinsuke Tachikawa stage play series by Yutaka Narui, who is also in charge of writing the scripts for the show. The series will be co-produced by Live2D Creative Studio and Drive.
A four-panel manga adaptation by Matsuri Muramatsu will also be released later this year.
