Bananya Returns with a New Anime Series for Its 10th Anniversary: "Bananya At Home Party" Starts on July 10

The world of adorable cats hiding inside bananas, Bananya, is celebrating its 10th anniversary with an unforgettable surprise. According to official sources, the new anime series titled "Bananya At Home Party" will begin airing on July 10, 2025. This special production also marks a milestone honoring the ten years since the series' debut in 2016.

The beloved voice actors from the series return for the new season. Yūki Kaji (Bananya) and Ayumu Murase (Kuro) are back to bring the characters to life with their voices. Kaji is known for his role as Eren Yaeger in Attack on Titan, while Murase is remembered for his performance as Shōyō Hinata in Haikyuu!!. Their chemistry is the greatest guarantee that the sweet spirit of Bananya will be preserved.

Bananya first premiered in 2016 as a short-form anime by the creative team TMS Entertainment and director Kyō Yatate. The production, which depicts the daily adventures of little cats living inside banana peels, quickly became a cult hit thanks to its simplicity and cuteness. The series continued in 2019 with a second season, "Bananya: Fushigi na Nakamatachi", and has garnered millions of views to date. The 10th-anniversary special series will be the most special gift of this successful journey.

As the name suggests, the new anime has a party theme set in a home environment. The fun activities Bananya and his friends organize at home aim to provide a warm atmosphere for both new and old fans. Although the series' broadcaster and detailed episode information have not yet been fully announced, it is expected to begin airing on television and online platforms in Japan starting July 10.

The Bananya universe has not been limited to anime; it has become a widespread pop culture phenomenon with toys, clothing, and other licensed products. The 10th anniversary may also herald a special music album and surprise events. New visuals and trailers are expected to be shared in the coming weeks. For Bananya fans, the summer months seem even more enjoyable with this sweet news.
