Shun Horie is an active voice actor with multiple roles announced for 2026 anime. He is cast as Judah Hasphaslupi in the second cour of Red River, as Kyle in Romelia War Chronicle, and in an undisclosed role in Heroine? Saint? No, I'm an All-Works Maid.
Shun Horie has taken on several anime roles announced across 2026, spanning a historical fantasy, a war chronicle, and a comedy. His most recent casting was confirmed in late August for the second cour of Red River, the adaptation of Chie Shinohara's manga. He voices Judah Hasphaslupi, the sixth prince of the Hittite Empire who admires Kail and distrusts his mother Nakia. The second cour begins September 29, and a two-volume Blu-ray box set is scheduled, with Volume 1 on December 9 and Volume 2 on April 14, 2027.
Earlier in August, Horie was announced as Kyle in Romelia War Chronicle, which premieres in October 2026 and runs for two cours. Crunchyroll will stream it. In May, he joined the cast of Heroine? Saint? No, I'm an All-Works Maid, which streams early on June 24 and debuts on TV on July 1. The exact character he plays in that series was not named in the announcements.
The roles show Horie moving across different genres and production scales. Red River carries a longer broadcast commitment for a shojo adaptation, while Romelia War Chronicle is a two-cour adaptation of a completed light novel series. His casting in three series within a few months indicates steady work, though the stories do not detail his performance or any lead roles.
