It’s Thursday and we’re missing Supernatural.

Yuya Uchida (Soul Eater’s Dr. Franken Stein, Naruto ShippÅ«den’s Rinji) will dub the role of Sam, while Hiroki Touchi (Trinity Blood’s Abel Nightroad, Bokurano’s Kokkpelli) will dub the role of Dean. Both actors dubbed these same roles for the live-action version in Japanese.

Also, we haven’t talked anime in a while. It’s nice to solve a problem of two birds with one stone.

At the Rising Con Spain 2010, Jensen and Jared confirmed the project and that they’d seen and approved the artwork for Sam and Dean. They also said they would voice the first couple of English language episodes.

The Winchester brothers (Sam and Dean) will be designed to look like the original actual actors (Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki). Sub characters: e.g. John, Bobby, Mary, Jessica etc. will be designed in a completely new way to give fresh impression. Enemies (Creatures, Demon and Ghosts) will be given a cool design taking full advantage of Japanese anime expression.

When’s it coming?
January 2011.
