This season’s Mission: Yozakura Family is recruiting more cast for episode 8! Meet the new players in this spy action rom-com.
First up is Yoshimasa Kuroyuri, the flamboyant leader of the Kuroyuri Party whose theatrics have earned him the nickname “The Dancing Politician.” Though he may not look it, this man is on a mission. Kuroyuri will be voiced by Hideyuki Hori (Vinsmoke Judge in One Piece).
Also joining the cast in episode 8 is Kaoru Akikaze, the soft-spoken owner of Café Hinagiku. Of course, like pretty much every other character in this series, there’s more to him than meets the eye. He will be voiced by Yuuki Tamai.
The original Mission: Yozakura Family manga by Hitsuji Gondaira is serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump manga magazine, and an English language version is also available from Viz Media. Mirai Minato writes and directs the TV anime adaptation at animation studio SILVER LINK., while Mizuki Takahashi provides the character designs and chief animation direction and Koji Fujimoto and Osamu Sasaki of Sus4 Inc. provide the music.
Viz Media describes Mission: Yozakura Family:
Taiyo Asano is a super-shy high school student and the only person he can talk to is his childhood friend Mutsumi Yozakura. However, Mutsumi comes from a line of master spies with amazing powers. Her oldest brother, Kyoichiro, is obsessed with Mutsumi and out to kill anyone who gets remotely near her—and his next target is Taiyo! The only way for Taiyo to save himself from Kyoichiro’s murderous clutches is to marry Mutsumi!
