Misato Fukuen has three active voice roles in 2026: Sara Kiryūin in The Ogre's Bride, Haruka Ichigeki in Flaming Dodgeball Girl Danko, and Momoko in the Lazy Witch's Factory game.
Misato Fukuen appears in three projects announced in mid-2026, spanning two television anime and one video game. In the game Lazy Witch's Factory, she voices the protagonist Momoko, a lazy witch tricked by a demon into a debt that must be repaid within 30 minutes. The game's demo launched on Steam on June 11, 2026, with the full game scheduled for summer 2026. A promotional video featuring Fukuen's voice was released alongside the demo.
In television anime, Fukuen joined two series that premiered in July 2026. She voices Sara Kiryūin, the mother of a central character, in The Ogre's Bride, an adaptation of Kureha's light novel series. Sara and her husband Senya appeared in the fourth episode on July 25. The anime premiered July 4 and streams on Crunchyroll. In Flaming Dodgeball Girl Danko, a sequel to the 1990s series, Fukuen voices Haruka Ichigeki. That anime premiered July 6.
All three roles were announced within a seven-week window from June to July 2026. No further projects or career developments beyond these three roles are covered in the available stories.

Publisher Phoenixx and developer Meltclock released a demo for the roguelite factory builder Lazy Witch's Factory on Steam on June 11, 2026. The full game is scheduled for summer 2026, with pricing not yet announced. The demo arrives ahead of the Steam Next Fest event running June 16 to 23. In the game, players control Momoko, a lazy witch tricked by a demon into a huge debt that must be repaid within 30 minutes. Players automate a factory by having cute familiars-such as mining goblins and a blacksmith salamander-dig, transport, and craft items to earn funds. Demon contracts provide buffs or skills but can carry dangerous effects like forcing overtime or counterfeiting money. The protagonist Momoko is voiced by Misato Fukuen, known for roles including Himiko Toga in My Hero Academia and Cure Happy in Smile PreCure!. A promotional video featuring her voice was also released alongside the demo.
