Akira Toriyama is a legend who led the Shounen revolution single-handedly with Dragon Ball. His feature-length film, Sand Land, was a massive hit and addressed issues such as war, corporate greed, and climate.
The creator’s passion and talent are evident in this series, and an anime series was announced for the manga. More information about the theme song artists have been released.
Akira Toriyama’s SAND LAND announced the opening and ending theme song artists in a new trailer along with a key visual.
The trailer previews Kroi’s opening song “Water Carrier” and Tempalay’s ending song “Drive My Idea.”
The anime will debut its first seven episodes simultaneously on Disney+ Star’s “STAR Anime Series” programming on March 20 and stream on Hulu in the U.S.
The first seven episodes are mostly the recap of the movie. Episodes 7-13 will feature an all-new “Tenshi no Yūsha” (Angelic Heroes) arc, with the story set in a new place called “Forest Land.”
The commemorative visual features Muniel, Beelzebub, Anne, and Rao.
The series will also feature returning cast and staff members from the film. Toshisha Yokoshima is directing the series at Sunrise. Additionally, two new cast members will appear in the “Tenshi no Yūsha” arc.
| Character | Cast | Other Works |
| Anne | Mikako Komatsu | Bloom into You (Rei Koito) |
| Muniel | Ayumu Murase | Altair: A Record of Battles (Mahmut) |
While “Sand Land’ looks simple, it is incredibly complex and deals with some of the darker issues of humankind. While the movie was exceptional, the new arc is bound to be a treat!
