Aniplus-Asia announced on Thursday that it will air a simulcast of Cygames, Cygames Pictures, and Masami Ōbari's Bang Brave Bang Bravern (Yūki Bakuhatsu Bang Bravern ) original television anime. The simulcast will premiere later tonight at 10:30 p.m. GMT +8.
The anime debuted in Japan just last night. In contrast to the anime's marketing thus far as a military-themed mecha series, the series revealed with the first episode that it is in fact a super robot series. The staff unveiled a new visual and promotional video fully showing the series' tone.
Kenichi Suzumura is voicing the giant robot Bravern, who can speak human language. Suzumura is also performing the opening theme song "Ba-Bang to Suisan! Bang Bravern." The stars Ryōta Suzuki (Isami Ao) and Yōhei Azakami (Lewis Smith) are performing the ending theme song "Sōen no Shōzō." The anime's website is streaming the anime's creditless title sequence.
The anime stars:
- Ryōta Suzuki as Isami Ao
- Yōhei Azakami as Lewis Smith
- Saya Aizawa as Lulu
- Yume Miyamoto as Hibiki Rio
- Ai Kakuma as Miyu Katо̄
- Kaori Maeda as Honoko Suzumigi
- Yukiyo Fujii as Karen Aldrin

Obari (Gravion, Gravion Zwei, Angel Blade, Battle Arena Toshinden) is directing the original robot series at anime studio Cygames Pictures (Blade Runner: Black Out 2022, Princess Connect! Re:Dive). Keigo Koyanagi (The Rising of The Shield Hero) is handling the series composition. Kōichi Motomura (Yotsunoha) is designing the characters based on original designs by Kamokamen (Wasureenu Majo no Monogatari). MORUGA and Mizuki Sakura are mechanical designers. Kenji Teraoka is the production designer.
