The latest trailer for the Champignon Witch anime has confirmed that Haruka Shiraishi will star as the protagonist, Luna. Shiraishi is likely best known for her performance as Asirpa in the Golden Kamuy anime series and its OVAs. Her other notable performances include Fumino Furuhashi in We Never Learn, Reiko Kujirai in Kowloon Generic Romance, Sara in Mushoku Tensei, and Rose Oriana in The Eminence in Shadow. Shiraishi is currently the only announced cast member.
Yosuke Kubo is directing the anime at Typhoon Graphics and Qzil.la studios. Yuko Kakihara is in charge of series composition, while Miki Matsumoto is designing the characters. It is expected that additional cast and staff members will be announced in the coming months as the 2025 calendar year draws to a close. The key visual features protagonist Luna apparently lying down in a forest, surrounded by flowers and mushrooms.
As mentioned, the Champignon Witch anime is currently slated for a January 2026 release window. The series will air on TBS on Japanese television. As of this article’s writing, no domestic or international streaming information for the series has been officially confirmed. Fans can expect this information to eventually be revealed via the series’ official website or official X account, both of which opened on Friday, May 30.
The magic fantasy series follows the protagonist Luna, a witch feared by others who lives in a black forest. She is known as the titular Champignon Witch because poisonous mushrooms grow wherever she walks, talks, and touches. As teased in the final moments of the promotional video, the story follows Luna as she meets someone who can be around her. Furthermore, she begins to develop her first love after never having experienced the touch of another before.
The television Champignon Witch anime series will adapt mangaka Tachibana Higuchi’s original manga series of the same name. The manga began serialization in Hakusensha’s Manga Park shojo magazine in October 2019, where it continues to be ongoing today. The manga has been collected into six compilation volumes so far, none of which are officially available in English as of the writing of this article.
