The official website for the anime adaptation of SIU's Tower of God webtoon series, which is one of the first eight titles in the inaugural slate of Crunchyroll Original titles, has released a new PV that previews the Japanese version of the opening theme song performed by Stray Kids.
The opening theme song is titled "TOP-Japanese ver.-."
The series is set to premiere simultaneously in Japan, Korea, and the United States on April 1, 2020.
South Korean boy band Stray Kids will be performing the opening and ending theme songs for the anime.
As the anime is set to premiere in Japan, Korea, and the United States simultaneously, the band has recorded the songs in each country's language: Japanese, Korean, and English.
The band's 19-year-old member Seungmin says, "We have needed a lot of preparation to record the songs in three languages, but I think it will provide opportunities to let more people know about us."
Stray Kids made their debut in Korea in March 2018 with their first EP "I Am Not." They will release their debut album in Japan, "SKZ2020," on March 18, 2020.
The previously announced cast includes: Taichi Ichikawa as Bam, Saori Hayami as Rachel, Houchu Ohtsuka as Headon, Rie Suegara as Endorsi Jahad, Akira Sekine as Anaak Jahad, Nobuhiko Okamoto as Khun Aguero Agnes, Kenta Miyake as Rak Wraithraiser, Mariko Honda as Yuri Jahad, Toshinari Fukamachi as Hatz, Takuya Eguchi as Shibisu, and Kazuyuki Okitsu as Evan Edroch.
Tower of God is an adventure fantasy series that has been serialized in Korea's NAVER WEBTOON since 2010 and in Japan through LINE since 2018. To date, it has been translated into 28 languages, and has reached 4.5 billion views worldwide.
