Jun Fukuyama is attached to three upcoming anime roles: Jimmy in Horror Collector, an unnamed character in Ranma 1/2 season 3, and Rutger Ahrend in the game Atelier Karia. He also reprises the Arrow Demon in the Demon Slayer rerun.
Jun Fukuyama's recent work is spread across broadcast anime, a returning game role, and a rerun. In the May 31, 2026 episode of the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba rerun, he voices the Arrow Demon, one of the Twelve Kizuki sent by Kibutsuji Muzan to attack Tamayo's house. Fukuyama commented that the animation layout made him question how it would move.
Two anime roles are dated for October 2026 on different networks. Horror Collector debuts on NHK on October 10 with a 12-episode run, and Fukuyama plays Jimmy. Ranma 1/2 season 3 debuts on NTV on October 3, and Fukuyama is among the additional cast; the season streams on Netflix after broadcast.
On September 20, 2026, Koei Tecmo's Gust brand introduced Rutger Ahrend, voiced by Fukuyama, as a returning character from Atelier Yumia in Atelier Karia. Yoshino Aoyama voices Leinya, the other returning character. The stream showed the package visual with the full party. Atelier Karia launches February 25, 2027.
The most recent story in the set is about SSS-Class Hunter Who Dies to Live, whose second PV names new cast members and an ending theme, with broadcast beginning January 2027 on Fuji TV's +Ultra and other channels. Fukuyama is not named in that cast list.
