Nabetama teaser PV#

Why Juntaro has two voice actors#

• Juntaro (cute girl): Shu Uchida

• Juntaro (middle-aged man): Masaaki Mizunaka

After years of consuming too much anime and manga, Juntaro sees every person as a cute girl. The anime shows the world through that filter. Shu Uchida voices the cute girl Juntaro, and Masaaki Mizunaka voices the real, middle-aged Juntaro.

Shu Uchida calls the manga a wild read that makes your mouth water. Masaaki Mizunaka notes that Juntaro is both the original author and the main character, and describes the story as stimulating and heartwarming.

What is Nabetama about?#

Juntaro travels to cities around the world in search of "50,000-point cuisine". The trips skip the guidebook spots and head for deep, little-known places, where Juntaro tries suspicious but tempting local dishes.

The series is nonfiction. Juntaro Aoki writes about real trips, and Juntaro also loves fishing, which leads to meetings with people along the way.

The Nabetama manga#

Juntaro Aoki writes the manga and Shin Moriyama draws it for KADOKAWA's Comic Newtype. In a message written in English for the June announcement, Juntaro Aoki called it "one of the craziest Manga ever" and is excited to see how fans overseas react.
