Toshiyuki Toyonaga is voicing the lead role in the upcoming The Eternal Fool's Words of Wisdom anime and recently participated in the Yuri!!! on Ice 10th anniversary event.
Toshiyuki Toyonaga has two active projects in 2026. He is the lead voice actor for the television anime adaptation of Hifumi's light novel series The Eternal Fool's Words of Wisdom, playing the immortal mage Asley. The anime was announced with a teaser trailer, main cast, and staff in July 2026, and is set to premiere in January 2027. Keisuke Onishi is directing at Studio Elle, with series scripts by Kurasumi Sunayama and character designs by Yumiko Mizuno. Crunchyroll will stream the series outside Japan.
Earlier in July 2026, Toyonaga contributed a congratulatory comment for the Yuri!!! on Ice 10th anniversary event, which included a full series YouTube stream starting July 17 and a Blu-ray & CD Box release in December. He was one of several voice actors and theme song artists who participated. The two stories show Toyonaga active in both a new lead role and a nostalgic anniversary celebration for a previous major series.
