My Stepmother and Stepsisters Aren't Wicked Anime Adaptation Announces Two New Voice Actors
The TV anime adaptation of My Stepmother and Stepsisters Aren't Wicked has introduced two more voice actors. According to Anime News Network's August 24, 2026 report, Hiroki Nanami has been cast as Sadame Mikuriya, while Nao Tōyama will voice the character Hachi Ura. Thus, the series' cast continues to expand with two important figures of the story.
Behind the new cast announcement lies the manga of the same name by author Otsuji. The series has a warm story that turns the classic Cinderella narrative upside down: In this universe, the stepmother and stepsisters are not wicked; the main character builds a new life with her new family on an unexpected foundation of love and solidarity. With its warm style far from fairy-tale clichés, the story has already won a place in the hearts of manga readers.
Nao Tōyama is known for iconic roles such as Tohru Honda in Fruits Basket, Yui Yuigahama in Oregairu, and Nozomi Tojo in Love Live!. The experienced voice actress's participation in this project further increases interest in the anime. Hiroki Nanami, on the other hand, is a name that stands out with his work in stage and voice acting; he will take his place in the main cast as Sadame Mikuriya.
Details such as the studio, release date, and the rest of the main cast for the anime adaptation have not yet been officially announced. However, the new announcements show that the adaptation is in production and that we are in for a character-focused narrative. Additional cast members and visual materials to be announced in the coming weeks may provide a first impression before the eagerly awaited first trailer.
