'Charisma' Anime Shorts Is Officially Here

'Charisma' Anime Shorts Officially Kick Off Today Ahead of 2027 Main Series

The doors to the wildest share house in anime are officially open! While the highly anticipated main television adaptation of Charisma (Chōjin-teki Share House Story Charisma) won't be arriving until next year, fans were treated to an early surprise today. The special short-format anime series has officially kicked off its broadcast run in Japan.

What is 'Charisma' About?

Originally launching as a massive multimedia music and drama project by Evil Line Records and Dazed, the story revolves around seven unique young men living together under one roof. Each of these chaotic housemates embodies a specific "charisma"—a divinely gifted, elemental trait. As they navigate their bizarre daily lives in the Charisma House, they aim to accumulate "charisma charge" by turning the world's negativity and mockery into fuel to reach even higher goals.

The Voice Cast & Production Team:

The project boasts a stacked lineup of talented voice actors to bring the chaotic housemates to life:

- Katsumi Fukuhara as Iori Motohashi (Charisma of Obedience)

- Genki Okawa as Terra (Charisma of Self-love)

- Masahiro Yamanaka as Rikai Kusanagi (Charisma of Order)

- Kenta Hosoda as Kei Sarukawa (Charisma of Rebellion)

- Saku Hyūga as Ohse Minato (Charisma of Internal Punishment)

- Tomohisa Hashizume as Amahiko Tendō (Charisma of Sex)

- Yūki Ono as Fumiya Itō (Charisma of Good and Evil)

The anime is being produced by PIERROT FILMS (the powerhouse studio behind Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War), with Jouji Furuta stepping into the director's chair and Shū Matsubara handling the series composition.

Release Schedule Details:

The newly launched short anime series officially debuted today, November 4, 2026, airing weekly on Wednesdays within TBS's Yoru no Brunch variety program.

Meanwhile, the full-length main television series is officially locked in for a January 7, 2027 premiere. It will broadcast late-night on Thursdays across 28 TBS-affiliated networks. For fans lucky enough to be in Japan, an advance screening of the first two episodes is also scheduled to hit theaters on December 6.
