Magical Destroyers (魔法少女マジカルデストロイヤーズ) is an upcoming original anime series, created by underground art and music creator Jun Inagawa, which will center around a group of four otakus with a desire to fight for freedom and defend the otaku culture from oppression by a mysterious group with a goal of eliminating it in Japan.

Daishiro Tanemura, who previously worked on popular anime shows like Kuroko’s Basketball and Spy×Family, will handle the series composition, and character designs will be made by Yuki Sawa, which will be animated by Bibury Animation Studio.
The Japanese voice cast will be lead by Makoto Furukawa, who previously voiced Taiju Oki in the popular sci-fi comedy anime Dr. Stone, who will voice “Otaku Hero”.
He will be joined by Fairouz Ai (Power, Chainsaw Man anime) as “Anarchy”, Aimi (Kasumi Toyama, BanG Dream! franchise) as “Blue”, and Tomoyo Kurasawa (Miria Akagi, The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls franchise) as “Pink”.
