Daisuke Sakuma voices Shinichiro Saotome in the second cour of Ace of Diamond Act II Second Season, which premieres October 11, and promoted the film Matching TRUE LOVE at a Tokyo stage greeting on the 10th.
Daisuke Sakuma's current work spans a voice role and a film appearance. In Ace of Diamond Act II Second Season, he joins the cast as Shinichiro Saotome of Inashiro High School, the opposing team in the Seido vs Inashiro match that the new key visual centers on. The second cour premieres October 11 at 5:30 p.m. JST on TV Tokyo and its affiliates, with an AT-X broadcast at 9:00 p.m. JST and streaming on Netflix in Japan. Hideaki Oba directs the season at OLM, Kenji Konuta oversees series scripts, and Yasukazu Shoji handles character design; GLAY performs the opening theme and OxT the ending theme.
Separately, Sakuma appeared with actress Tao Tsuchiya at a Tokyo stage greeting on the 10th for the film Matching TRUE LOVE. They discussed the contemporary dance they performed in the music video for LiSA's theme song "Sophia," staying in character as their film roles. Sakuma said he had wanted to dance with Tsuchiya for years, and Tsuchiya recommended choreographer Tomohiko Tsujimoto.
Coverage has not linked the two projects. One is an October broadcast premiere with cast and staff details; the other is a promotional event where the leads traded credit for a dance neither was cast to do. The film's push leans on the music video and its choreography as much as the sequel's own story.
