Tuesday, February 25, 2025 saw the official website for Yanmar Holdings’ original Miru: Paths to My Future anime project reveal the story and cast members for all five of its episodes. Each episode was given a key visual highlighting the voice actors who’ll star in the corresponding installment and the character roles they’ll play.

Mostly, each episode of the Miru: Paths to My Future anime series will feature a completely new cast, but one exception comes in Daisuke Hirakawa playing roles in two different episodes. Outside of Hirakawa, however, fans can expect a completely new cast in each episode of the project.
