The TV anime "TANK CHAIR-戦車椅子-" premieres in Japan on October 4, 2026. The official website also confirms two more cast members, a new key visual and main PV, and the artists for the opening and ending.

Yurina Amami as Dr. Radio and Gen Sato as Uzu are newly joining the cast. Previously confirmed were Koki Uchiyama as Nagi Taira, Minori Fujidera as Shizuka Taira, Gakuto Kajiwara as Naozumi Kurosaka and Saori Hayami as Touko Kurosaka. The animation is produced by Polygon Pictures.

SiM and Daoko take on the theme songs

On the same day, the production also named the series' music acts. SiM contributes the opening, while Daoko is responsible for the ending. The specific song titles are not yet mentioned on the official website in the current announcement overview.

The manga source by Manabu Yashiro is published by Kodansha in "Monthly Shonen Sirius." At its center is former hitman Nagi Taira, who remains unconscious after a gunshot wound and only wakes when he faces strong intent to kill. His sister Shizuka therefore sets out with him and the titular combat wheelchair against ever more dangerous opponents.

With the start now set for October 4, "TANK CHAIR" joins the anime relaunches scheduled for fall 2026 with a concrete date. Also announced for October are, among others, FX Fighter Kurumi-chan and the Yuki-Onna romance.

For German-speaking regions, the official website currently names no streaming partner. Further details on international availability are therefore still pending.
