Sugita Tomokazu has been cast in two TV anime premiering in July 2026: as Ryuji Bito in Iron Wok Jan! and as Naomichi Fudeki in Reiwa no Darasan.
In June 2026, voice actor Sugita Tomokazu was announced in two new roles for anime premiering the following month. On June 7, he was revealed as Naomichi Fudeki in the occult comedy Reiwa no Darasan, which begins airing July 2 on TOKYO MX and other stations. The series also cast Aoi Koga and Saori Hayami, and its ending theme is performed by the duo REIRIE.
Later that month, on June 24, Sugita was confirmed to voice Ryuji Bito, an assassin chef known as XO Sauce Ryu, in the TV anime Iron Wok Jan! The role places him as a key antagonist in the series. A new key visual and promotional video were released alongside the casting announcement, and a special program and collaboration menu are scheduled for July to support the premiere.
Both announcements came within weeks of each other, giving Sugita two distinct supporting roles in the summer 2026 anime season. No further details about his involvement in either series have been disclosed beyond the character names and the July premiere windows.
