Mongolian Witch Anime 'Jaadugar' Shares Promo & Key Voice Actors

So, 'Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia' is a thing now. They’ve released a promo video and announced the cast, which includes Akira Sekine and Houko Kuwashima. Big whoop. It’s another historical drama, apparently about a witch. Is this supposed to be groundbreaking? Because it feels a lot like… well, like a lot of other things.

The series is set to broadcast in July, so mark your calendars if you’re into that sort of historical fantasy fare. I suppose it’s good that they're bringing in recognizable voice actors, but that doesn’t guarantee a compelling narrative. We’ve seen talented casts carry mediocre stories before. It’s a gamble.

Honestly, my expectations are pretty low. Historical settings can be interesting, but if it’s just going to be full of predictable plot points and overly dramatic moments, I’ll probably just tune out. Let's hope they surprise me, but don't expect any enthusiastic cheers from me.
