Kenjiro Tsuda is an active voice actor with several roles across current projects, including the second season of Little Mouse's Red Vest and the theatrical anime SEKIRO: NO DEFEAT, where he voices Genichiro Ashina.
Kenjiro Tsuda's recent roles span a broad range of titles, from a family-oriented NHK Educational series to a video game adaptation and a feature film trilogy. He appears in the upcoming second season of Little Mouse's Red Vest, which premieres October 3, where he and Mamiko Noto voice every character. He is also part of the cast of the theatrical anime SEKIRO: NO DEFEAT, reprising his role as Genichiro Ashina from the original game. The film, announced for a limited theatrical run starting September 4, is a fully hand-drawn 2D adaptation directed by Kenichi Kutsuna at Qzil.la, with the original game's voice cast returning.
Tsuda's connection to the Sekiro franchise has been highlighted across multiple announcements. The trailer released in June confirmed his involvement alongside Daisuke Namikawa and Miyuki Sato, and a subsequent completion screening announcement in July listed him among the voice actors scheduled to appear at the August 14 event. This pattern of casting in both Japanese and international-facing projects is consistent with his other recent work, such as the Mononoke the Movie trilogy, where he voices a new Medicine Seller named Ken, a role announced in July 2026.
His schedule shows no signs of slowing down, with commitments to several high-profile and niche productions. The breadth of his roles, from children's programming to adult-oriented anime, illustrates a career that remains in demand across different segments of the industry.

The anime film Mononoke the Movie: Chapter 3, The Serpent God, which opened in Japanese theaters in May 2026, will be exclusively streamed worldwide on Netflix starting Tuesday, September 29. This installment is the concluding chapter of a new theatrical trilogy based on the 2007 TV anime Mononoke, which itself originated from the Bakeneko arc of Ayakashi: Samurai Horror Tales. The trilogy is set in the Ooku, the inner chambers of the shogun's palace, and follows the Medicine Seller, voiced by Hiroshi Kamiya, as he exorcises vengeful spirits. Each chapter shifts perspective to a woman of higher status: a new maid in Chapter 1, The Phantom Rain; an elite senior maid in Chapter 2, The Fire Rat; and the Midaidokoro, the highest-ranking woman, in Chapter 3. The third film centers on Sachiko, voiced by Atsumi Tanezaki, whose newborn son dies, triggering a conspiracy tied to the Ooku's founding 150 years earlier. The theme song is No Epilogue by Aina The End. Chapters 1 and 2 are already streaming on Netflix, so the full trilogy will be available at once.
