Bastard!! Heavy Metal, Dark Fantasy revealed with a first key visual featuring Dark Schneider and Tia Noto Yoko, Heavy metal and dark fantasy manga Bastard!! is coming back with a new anime project.
Bastard!! Destructive God of Darkness was first released in Shonen Jump in 1988 by Kazushi Hagiwara, a mangaka who was most notably the assistant of the late Izumi Matsumoto (Kimagure Orange Road). Bastard became famous for its references to heavy metal, its violent and sultry atmosphere, and its anti-hero Dark Schneider.
The Bastard manga was popular enough to get a series of OVA adaptations in the early ’90s. There were some game adaptations too, as some of you might remember that weird Bastard 3D fighting game on Super Nintendo. The gameplay was really bad but the game itself looked incredible with its usage of Mode 7.
Most older anime fans have seen the Bastard OVAs on VHS, and it’s pretty exciting to know it’s coming back with a new anime project.
Warner Bros. Japan announced today that a new adaptation of the BASTARD!! –Heavy Metal, Dark Fantasy- series (localized as Bastard!! by Viz Media in English) is in production and will premiere on Netflix in 2022. A teaser visual was also released alongside the announcement.
The main cast and staff was also announced as the following:

Dark Schneider: Kisho Taniyama (Chuya Nakahara in Bungo Stray Dogs)
This is a manga that was serialized when I was a student. It had a strong presence and of course I knew about it. I was just in the generation at the time, and I never thought that I would be able to play the role of Dark Schneider, who is the dangerous protagonist of the dangerous manga. In the past, the same role was played by Kazuki Yao-sanpai in the OVA. He played the role so well that I thought he was the only one who could do it. For the people who have entrusted me with the role of Dark Schneider, and for the many fans of the original manga, I will do my best to play the role as only Kishow Taniyama can. I would appreciate your support.”!Thank you for your support.
Tia Noto Yoko: Tomori Kusunoki (Llenn in Sword Art Online Alternative Gun Gale Online)
Yoko-san has a strong sense of self, so she is a little scary when she gets angry. However, she is a strong, kind-hearted, and wonderful woman who looks at her surroundings and understands the feelings of others. I will do my best to make it enjoyable for all of my fans, including those from overseas, as well as for those who are interested for the first time. Please support us from now on!
Gara: Hiroki Yasumoto (Hozuki in Hozuki’s Coolheadcoolnes)
In the past, the boy Yasumoto had his heart and “something” heated by this work. I am so excited to be able to participate in such a memorable work as my personal favorite character, Gara. the character. I will try to play him well, carefully, boldly, but somehow gently and charmingly.

Arshes Nei: Yoko Hikasa (Mio Akiyama in K-ON!)
I’m Yoko Hikasa, and I’ll be playing the role of Arshes Nei. Nei is a clumsy but straightforward woman who pursues her ideal world and strength while pretending not to see her deepest feelings. I hope to express the subtleties of Nei’s mind as she wavers between her duty and her love. This work, which incorporates a lot of the original manga author’s playfulness, will be revived as a new anime. Please look forward to it!
