The official cast of the anime series has not been announced yet. However, a few weeks ago, a pre-selection voice cast leak was circulating on the internet which you can see below:
- Pochita will be voiced by Ikue Otani (also voiced Chopper and Pikachu)

- Makima will be voiced by Yoko Hikasa (also voiced Frieda Reiss)
