Hiroyuki Yoshino is set to voice Yukari in The Fable Season 2, which premieres on NTV on January 9 at 12:55 a.m. JST, and Saba in the Dreamland anime, which premieres October 17 in the ANiMAZiNG!!! slot on ABC TV and TV Asahi affiliates.
Hiroyuki Yoshino appears in two cast announcements for upcoming TV anime. The first, on September 9, placed him in the Japanese localization of Dreamland, the adaptation of Reno Lemaire's French manga. He voices Saba, described as an easygoing art college student, alongside Takuya Eguchi as Savana and Masahiko Tanaka as Yung. That series premieres October 17 in the ANiMAZiNG!!! slot on ABC TV and TV Asahi affiliates across 24 stations. Ellipse and La Chouette Compagnie produce, with Juan Pablo Machado and Joe Celse directing.
The second, on October 13, added him to The Fable Season 2 as Yukari, one of six new cast members. Takanori Hoshino, Koichi Yamadera, Taiten Kusunoki, Satoshi Mikami and Seiyu Fujiwara also join. Kazuyuki Okitsu, Miyuki Sawashiro and Kana Hanazawa return from the first season, with director Ryosuke Takahashi at Tezuka Productions and composer Yo Tsuji. The season premieres on NTV on January 9 at 12:55 a.m. JST.
The two roles differ in origin and scale. Dreamland is a French property being localized for Japanese broadcast, and Yoshino's part is a supporting one in a cast led by Eguchi. The Fable is a returning production with a fixed premiere date and an established core, and Yoshino is one of the additions rather than a returning player. Neither announcement gives his screen time or billing, so the record on him is limited to the two roles and the two premiere dates.
