Dark Machine the Animation is set to debut on October 13 on Fuji TV, with the broadcast date, cast, and mecha designs now confirmed ahead of its global distribution push. The series will be available for TV and streaming via Fuji TV.
Dark Machine the Animation moved from a cast and music reveal in August to a full broadcast date in September. The second promotional video, unveiled on a Wednesday, confirmed an October television premiere and previewed the opening theme song "Sonzai Riyū Kai" by BUCK-TICK. That video also introduced four cast members playing players from rival e-sports teams. The series will be available for TV and streaming via Fuji TV.
The next update on September 7 named three more cast members: Nao Tōyama, Nonoka Ōbuchi, and Rei Nakashima. They play members of team Stellatus, an idol unit and rival to Kairi's Carbuncle team. The same announcement set the debut date at October 13 on Fuji TV. The staff also showed mecha designs for three of Kairi's machines.
Across the two stories, the cast has grown around the rivalry between Stellatus and the Carbuncle team. The opening theme, the Fuji TV broadcast and streaming availability, the October 13 date, and the Stellatus roster are the details now settled. The mecha designs shown in September sit alongside the cast additions as the most recent material released before the premiere.
