The staff of the anime Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku manga revealed three more cast for the series on Saturday.
Yūko Kaida are voicing the Tensen, the seven hermits who rule the Shinsenkyo. The Tensen stand in the way of Gabimaru, and have the same appearance and voice. The staff also revealed the character visuals for the Tensen characters Ju Fa (pictured first below) and Tao Fa (pictured second).
Additionally, Konomi Kohara plays the mysterious character Mei whom Gamimaru and the others encounter in Shinsenkyo.
Millennium Parade are collaborating on the opening theme song "WORK."
The manga centers on Gabimaru, once exalted as the strongest ninja, but who has now quit his trade, violating the laws of his village. After being captured, he claims he has nothing left to live for. However, due to his superhuman levels of training, he has inadvertently survived multiple executions, from attempts at beheading to burning at the stake. The executioner Sagiri Asaemon tells him that he has lingering attachment to life, and issues him a mission to win his acquittal: to find the elixir of immortality.
