REMOW announced on Saturday three new cast members and an October 2, 2026 premiere for the Tougen Anki: Nikko Kegon Falls Arc anime. Kenichi Suzumura plays Kusabi Momoura, chief of the Momotaro Agency Kegon Falls Branch. Yuki Kaji plays Hizumi Momotsugi, the branch laboratory's 10th Unit Captain.

The arc runs in two split cours, with the second cour set for April 2027.

The arc adapts the Nikko section of Yura Urushibara's manga, following Shiki and the Rasetsu Academy students after Yaoroshi leaves to join the Oni Brigade. Their destination is a research facility built near Kegon Falls, where the source material places experiments on Oni.

Streaming outside Japan begins October 2 at 25:00 JST, effectively October 3 at 1:00 a.m., across Netflix, Crunchyroll, Amazon Prime Video, Rakuten Viki, bilibili, and other services. On Japanese television the series airs Fridays at 11:30 p.m. on Nippon TV's Friday Anime Night block, with BS Nippon TV following on October 5.

The season's previously announced additions include Nobuhiko Okamoto as Hagure Nekosaki, Kent Ito as Yu Innami, and Gakuto Kajiwara as Hayate Todoroki. The main cast returns with Kazuki Ura as Shiki Ichinose, Hiroshi Kamiya as Naito Mudano, and Koutaro Nishiyama as Jin Kogasaki. Sources differ on the ending theme's romanized title, listing it as either "Hand in Hand" or "Te to Te."
