The Anime "Tohai - Ura Rate Mahjong Tohai Roku" Released a New Trailer Video

The anime "Tohai: Ura Rate Mahjong Tohai Roku" released a new trailer Video! 2nd season-ending theme song will be “Enako × Kayoko Kusano”.

The fourth trailer video for the "Tohai: Ura Rate Mahjong Tohai Roku" has been released. The second season of this anime will begin airing on January 11, 2025. The series is directed by Jun Hatori, with music by Yūsuke Shirato and Yūki Kishida, and animation production handled by EAST FISH STUDIO. The story follows a high school boy named Kei (nicknamed K of Ice), who wreaks havoc in underground Mahjong parlors driven by money, women, organs, and desires. Despite facing various hardships, Kei struggles to survive in the dark world of Mahjong.

In addition, the artists for the second season-ending theme song have been announced. Enako, a cosplay influencer who won the Comic Division Award at the Top Cover Awards 2023 and has over 2.4 million followers on X, and Kayoko Kusano, a singer-songwriter and composer who has provided numerous songs, including LiSA's "Gurenge," have formed a powerful duo to perform the ending theme. A comment expressing their enthusiasm has also been received from the artists.

■Artist Comments
Enako

I can't believe the day has come when I get to sing with Kusano san, who has provided music for me in the past! I am truly happy! On the day of the recordi ng, Kusano san directed me, and thanks to her encouragement and friendly nature, it was such a fun experience. I'm really looking forward to seeing how "Tumbling Dice" will come together with the animation for the ending!

Kayoko Kusano

This song was created to capture Amina's journey in Tōhai, where she constantly faces life-threatening situations, calls upon miracles, and overcomes the impossible. It reflects her spirit, belief, and the transformation of her heart as she meets new friends.

Life can sometimes feel like a gamble, where you choose when to make your move and seize victory. This song is a duet with the strong and inspiring Enako, and we hope you enjoy our harmony alongside the work itself.
