It has been revealed that voice actors Ogata Megumi (role of Hanako-kun, Tsukasa) and Kito Akari (role of Yashiro Nene) from the TV anime “Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun 2” will appear on “All-Star Thanksgiving ’24 Autumn”, which will be broadcast live on TBS from 6:30 pm on October 5, 2024. In preparation for the broadcast, Ogata, Kito, and manga artist Aida Iro, the original author of “Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun”, have posted on X (formerly Twitter).
“Toilet-bound Hanako-kun” is a “heartwarming toilet comedy” serialized by Aida Iro in the monthly “G Fantasy”. The story depicts the occult girl, Nene Yashiro, who loves spells and fortune-telling, being manipulated by the sadistic and slightly naughty ghost of a boy, Hanako-kun, and getting caught up in various ghost stories.
The first season of the TV anime aired from January to March 2020, and in October 2023, a short anime called “Hanako-kun: After School” was broadcast over four weeks, focusing on the story of the spin-off comic. A four-episode sequel to “Hanako-kun: After School” will begin airing in October 2024. The second season of the TV anime, “Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun 2”, is scheduled to begin airing in January 2025.
“All-Star Thanksgiving” is a large-scale TBS variety special program that began in the fall of 1991, where celebrities from the entertainment industry and various fields come together to engage in fierce quiz battles. This “All-Star Thanksgiving ’24 Autumn” marks the 66th time the program has been broadcast, and it is even more powerful than ever. This time, a star-studded cast of actors, popular celebrities, popular comedians, and even popular athletes will gather to color the five and a half hour live broadcast.
It has now been revealed that Ogata Megumi, who plays Hanako-kun’s Tsukasa from Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun 2, and Kito Akari, who plays Yashiro Nene, will also be appearing in “All-Star Thanksgiving ’24 Autumn”.
In preparation for their appearance, both voice actors posted on X, with Ogata saying, “This is my first time appearing on this program, an anime program.” Ogata wrote, “I don’t know what face to make at a time like this, but I’ll do my best for the Hanako-kun anime. Oh, I won’t run,” while Kito wrote, “I will be appearing together with Ogata-san.”
Manga artist Aida Iro, the original author of “Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun,” also posted an illustration of Hanako-kun and Nene, saying, “Ogata Megumi and Kito Akari will be at the All-Star Thanksgiving Festival! I can’t wait to see their brave figures.”
“All-Star Thanksgiving ’24 Autumn”, featuring voice actors Megumi Ogata (voice of Hanako-kun and Tsukasa) and Akari Kito (voice of Yashiro Nene) from the TV anime “Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun 2”, will be broadcast live on TBS from 6:30pm on October 5th. Fans are looking forward to seeing what kind of performances Ogata and Kito will show.
