The Junket Bank TV anime has been delayed from its October premiere, with no new date announced. The production staff cited scheduling issues and said the series needs additional production time.
The Junket Bank anime was moving toward an October 2026 premiere. TV Tokyo and affiliates were to air it on Mondays at 24:00 JST, and the cast filled out in July with Wataru Hatano as Keiichi Shishigami and Daisuke Hirakawa as Reiji Murasame. Sōma Saitō and Rikuya Yasuda lead the cast, with Seiji Kishi directing and Taku Iwasaki composing. A collaborative visual released in late June paired Junket Bank's Shinotsu Shin with Shinichi Akiyama of Liar Game, which was airing at the time.
In September, that plan changed. The staff delayed the show from October, citing scheduling issues and the need for additional production time. The specific TV Tokyo slot of October 5 at 12:00 a.m. JST was dropped, and no replacement date has been set; a new debut date is to be announced later.
Elsewhere, the manga continues on its own schedule. Shueisha released Junket Bank Vol. 22 for Kindle on July 17, 2026, alongside One Punch Man Vol. 37 and The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY Love You Vol. 26. The manga, by Ikkō Tanaka, follows banker Akira, who is transferred to a Special Operations Department and enters a bank that doubles as a gambling hall.
