Originally running from 2004 to 2008 for eighteen volumes, Yoshiyuki Nishi’s Muhyo & Roji’s Bureau of Supernatural Investigation got the nod for a revival in manga form and an anime adaptation is on the way as well. With the series set to make its premiere on August 3rd, 2018 through SKY PerfecTV and then Animax on September 3rd, 2018, the official site has now brought about a new promo video for it that clocks in at 90-seconds and a new key visual to the right. Nobuhiro Kondo is directing it based on the series composition and scripts by Yasuyuki Suzuki. Kouichiro Kawano is handling the character designs with Studio DEEN producing the animation for it.
The previously announced Japanese cast includes Ayumu Murase as Tōru Muhyō, Yuu Hayashi as Jirō “Roji” Kusano, Tetsuya Kakihara as Yōichi Himukai, Hiroshi Kamiya as Soratsugu Madoka, Mitsuki Saiga as Reiko Imai, Wataru Hatano as Page Klaus, Rie Kawamura as Yū Abiko (Biko), Satomi Akesaka as Rio Kurotori, Iori Nomizu as Nana Takenouchi, Tetsuharu Ohta as Tiki, Kōhei Amasaki as Kenji, Yōji Ueda as Maeda, Ami Koshimizu as Furuya, Kazumasa Fukagawa as Iwamoto, and Kyousuke Ikeda as Fujiwara.

Plot Concept: Are you a victim of unwanted spirit possession? Is there a ghost you need sent up and away…or down to burn for all eternity? If the answer is yes, then you need Muhyo and Roji, experts in magic law. Serving justice to evil spirits is their specialty.
