Iron Wok Jan! has a July TV premiere lined up, with Tomokazu Sugita cast as the assassin chef Ryuji Bito, the ending theme set, and a special program and collaboration menu planned for July. The series was also included in the second-wave works named at the PRISMation ATELIER stage during ABEMA Anime Festival 2026 on September 19, 2026.
Iron Wok Jan! is a TV anime with a July premiere in the works. Tomokazu Sugita will voice Ryuji Bito, an assassin chef who uses XO sauce, joining the cast as a key antagonist. The production also released a new key visual and a promotional video featuring commentary from the food critic Otani. The ending theme is "Nakita Akuma" by emunimini.
Promotion for the series is spread across several fronts. A special program and a collaboration menu are scheduled for July, timed around the premiere. Later in the year, at ABEMA Anime Festival 2026 supported by Comic Cmoa on September 19, 2026, the PRISMation ATELIER stage named three second-wave works, and Iron Wok Jan! was among them.
The two stories sit at different points in the rollout. The June announcement establishes the cast addition, the theme song, and the promotional plan tied to the July premiere. The September festival appearance places the series in a second-wave slate, after the initial premiere window. Coverage gives no further production details, no staff credits beyond the cast, and no confirmed episode count.
