Takuya Eguchi's two most recent credits sit on opposite sides of an October 2026 premiere slate. On September 9, the TV anime adaptation of Reno Lemaire's French manga Dreamland named him among three new cast members ahead of its October 17 premiere. He voices Savana, described as a foul-mouthed, quick-tempered charismatic fighter. Hiroyuki Yoshino and Masahiko Tanaka were added in the same announcement as Saba and Yung. The series follows Terrence, a boy who lost his mother in a fire and becomes a Dreamer after confronting that fear in a nightmare. Ellipse and La Chouette Compagnie produce, with Juan Pablo Machado and Joe Celse directing and the Japanese localization handled through Tohokushinsha and Amuse Creative Studio. It airs in the ANiMAZiNG!!! slot on ABC TV and TV Asahi affiliates across 24 stations, with the original manga carrying over 800,000 copies in print in France.

The earlier announcement came on August 5, when Ojisan wa Kawaii Mono ga Osuki. set an October 4 premiere, released a key visual, and added Eguchi alongside Yuki Kaji and Ayumu Murase. Kazuyuki Okitsu and Miyu Tomita lead that series as Mitsutaka Oji and Pugtaro. Coverage did not name which character Eguchi plays there, so the two roles are not comparable in detail: Dreamland specifies Savana, while Ojisan wa Kawaii Mono ga Osuki. lists him only as a new cast addition. What the two stories establish together is a premiere cluster in early-to-mid October 2026, with Eguchi confirmed in both productions and the Dreamland role the only one described.
