Aoi Yuki voices Maomao in The Apothecary Diaries, whose third season adds many new characters, and she appears in the film The Apothecary Diaries: The Movie - The Consort's Secret Treasure, scheduled for release on December 11. She also voices Madoka Kaname in Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie: Walpurgisnacht: Rising and performs the ending theme for Saga of Tanya the Evil II.
Aoi Yuki's recent coverage centers on The Apothecary Diaries. At the ABEMA Anime Festival 2026 stage, she and Takao Otsuka discussed dubbing Season 3 and The Apothecary Diaries: The Movie - The Consort's Secret Treasure in parallel, with the film scheduled for release on December 11. In a later Anime Herald interview, Yuki described her approach to Maomao as setting the rhythm for the cast, and she said season three adds many new characters with places to shine. That interview is the only word in these stories on what season three holds.
Beyond that series, Yuki is attached to two other projects. She voices Madoka Kaname in Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie: Walpurgisnacht: Rising, and the special edition of anan issue 2510, on shelves September 2, 2026, includes a dialogue between Yuki and Chiwa Saito, the voice of Homura Akemi, alongside a newly drawn cover by main animator Kazuki Kawada credited to Shaft. For Saga of Tanya the Evil II, she returns as Tanya Degurechaff and performs the ending theme "Weiter! Weiter!"; the season premieres on AT-X on July 8 at 9:30 p.m. JST, with Takayuki Yamamoto directing at Studio NuT.
The throughline is a voice actor working across a sequel season, a film, and a returning role at the same time.

No story gives a release date for season three or for the Madoka Magica film.

Bandai Namco Entertainment announced on August 20 that the expansion DLC 'Mask of Idris' for 'Code Vein 2' will release on September 9. The announcement came via the official PlayStation Japan X account, which shared a trailer and a PlayStation Store link. The DLC is set in the 'Abandoned World,' a space formed by the emotions of worlds erased by the history-altering events of the main game. These distorted emotions swell and begin to affect the real world, and the story follows a battle to save another world alongside new partners. Two new companions join the protagonist: Liv Vorda, voiced by Aoi Yuki, the half-sister of the vampire Valentin Vorda and the original overseer of the 'Hollow of Time and Space,' who abandoned her duties out of boredom; and Ruu Magmel, voiced by Manaka Iwami, a lone vampire girl working to stop the Abandoned World's expansion. To access the DLC, players must reach the second ending 'Moon of Harmony' and complete the quest 'Exchange Opinions with Valentin: Magmel Island Book.' A free update, Ver.2.0, will release the same day, adding post-main-story exploration with partners. 'Code Vein 2' is available on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
