So What's Wrong with Getting Reborn as a Goblin?

The television anime of Nazuna Miki and Tsukasa Araki's So What's Wrong with Getting Reborn as a Goblin? is set to premiere on Tokyo MX on October 5, with Crunchyroll streaming as it airs. The cast and theme song lineup are now in place following a 14-member cast announcement in September 2026.

Synthesized from 3 Yomimono stories · updated Sep 23

The anime adaptation of Nazuna Miki and Tsukasa Araki's So What's Wrong with Getting Reborn as a Goblin? has moved from a general October window to a confirmed premiere date. In July 2026, the production announced three cast additions (Natsuki Hanae, Hiro Shimono, and Yukari Tamura) along with its theme song artists: Sou on the opening song and AHUB on the ending song. By September 9, the main promotional video had arrived with more staff, a full broadcast schedule, and the specific date of October 5 on Tokyo MX.

The most recent update, on September 20, added 14 cast members. Among them, Junko Takeuchi plays Sandaime Hanzo, Mariya Ise plays Nanadaime Hanzo, Rin Mizuki plays Rokudaime Masamune, and Momoko Seto plays Hachidaime Echigoya. The numbered and named roles point to the manga's lineage of Hanzos, Masamunes, and Echigoyas, a structure the story uses.

What is settled now is the release plan. The series premieres on Tokyo MX on October 5. Crunchyroll streams as it airs. ABEMA and Prime Video have a week-ahead streaming run. Beyond the premiere and the cast and music announcements, the stories do not detail episode counts, further staff, or production updates.
