On Tuesday, September 12, 2023, the official website for the original television anime series Our Rainy Protocol released a new key visual and announced additional cast for the series. One exciting addition to the series’ cast comes from the Demon Slayer anime series, with Inosuke Hashibara’s voice actor, Yioshitsugu Matsuoka, joining as Mutsuki Naito.
With the series set to premiere in Japan in October, this will likely mark the last major cast announcement for the Our Rainy Protocol anime series. While a trailer could be released in the coming weeks prior to the series’ release, it’s unlikely to focus on any cast announcements, instead revealing the opening and ending themes.
The Our Rainy Protocol anime series is an original anime production that will focus on the world of e-sports, meaning that there is no source material to work with. As a result, fans have no idea what to expect from the series beyond its barebones plot synopsis, which identifies Shun Tokinoya as the series’ protagonist.

Character name romanizations for both the newly and previously announced cast members have yet to be confirmed as of this article’s writing.
Alongside the aforementioned cast announcements, the series also released a brand new key visual. The series is set to premiere in October on TV Asahi’s NUMAnimation programming block. Both domestic Japanese and international streaming information for the series has yet to be announced.

The series centers on the world of e-sports, focusing on Shun Tokinoya. Shun is a second-year high school student who started working at the FOX ONE e-sports cafe after his father’s accidental death. However, upon learning that the cafe is in a considerable amount of debt, Shun and his friends enter the “Xaxxerion Championship” to win the prize money and save the cafe.
