More details about Hero Mashima's upcoming new anime, Edens Zero, are dropping online. After revealing three new cast members, its official website gives a glimpse of its characters in a new key visual.
Edens Zero is now gaining training traction, thanks to the hype currently building the new series. As the manga's anime adaptation is now coming, it looks like things will be getting bigger for its much-loved characters.
The new visual, via Epic Dope, shows much of the characters. Here, fans can see Shiki Granbell, Rebecca, Happy, Homura, Elisa, Weisz, E.M. Pino and the Mother ready to take some action.
Heavily regarded as the Goddess of the Cosmos, the Mother is larger than any planet that viewers are about to see in the series. Shiki, on the other hand, is about to start a new adventure, along with Rebecca and Happy, after leaving his home planet.

Just like Mashima's Fairy Tail series, fans should make themselves ready to witness another adventure about "space pirates, cosmic entities, and adventurers" in Edens Zero. The series will feature Hiromichi Tezuka as Weisz Steiner, Shiori Izawa as E.M. Pino, and Shiki Aoki as Homura Kogetsu.
Takuma Terashima will also join the show as Shiki Granbell, Mikako Komatsu as Rebecca Bluegarden, and Rie Kugimiya as Happy, Anime News Network noted.
Talking about their roles, Terashima, who also appeared as a jackal in Fairy Tail, said he honors the moment and is more than willing to lend his voice for Shiki's role. Komatsu, in addition, reveals the script makes her moved by the characters' words.
So, she is hoping fans will be looking forward to seeing Edens Zero on the small screen to witness the incredible bond Shiki, Rebecca, and Happy have. Lastly, Kugiyama is also excited to see the anime, and just like fans, she can't wait for it.
Meanwhile, Mashima also discussed his work, revealing that the series' manga version may run longer than expected despite the scrutiny. In an interview with Mantan Web, through Comicbook, the mangaka explained he had found so much more about Shiki's story that the story would just continue.
He said that though he thought Edens Zero would only last with about 30 volumes, the story would continue as ideas kept pouring in. So, the more he continuously draws, the more he is enjoying it and even having fun.
It looks like fans are about to see more of Shiki's adventures on- and off-screen, as the anime is about to begin on April 10 on the NTV Channel.
