From the mind that brought us Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1, director Sunghoo Park is back with an explosive new original series—BULLET/BULLET—a post-apocalyptic action thrill ride that’s anything but ordinary. After 10 years in the making, Park’s passion project finally drops this summer, and it’s got everything from wasteland warfare to robot drama and gambling polar bears. Yes, really.
📽️Streaming & Theatrical Rollout
BULLET/BULLET’s release strategy is as wild as its premise. The first 8 episodes stream exclusively on Disney+ (Star) starting July 16, with episodes 9–12 arriving August 13.
But that’s not all—Japan will also get a two-part theatrical screening:
- 🧨 Bullet Run Arc (July 25)
- 💥 Bullet Final Battle Arc (August 15)
So whether you’re watching from your couch or the big screen, this series is gunning for attention.
🔥 Star-Studded Cast & Characters
Packed with talent, the cast features heavy-hitters like:
- Marina Inoue as Gear
- Kazuhiro Yamaji as Shirokuma (Polar Bear)
- Kana Hanazawa, Tomokazu Seki, Rie Kugimiya, and more as a quad-core robot squad (yes, one robot, four personalities)
- Yūichi Nakamura as Batting Center Saitō (because why not)
Expect intense character dynamics as this unlikely crew runs a rogue recovery business in a crumbling world.
🎶 Music That Slaps
The OP theme “WORK HARD” by rapper Chanmina brings gritty energy, while the newly revealed ED theme “Glass Door” by Newspeak leans rock for a punchy finish. The vibes are electric.
🛠️ Behind the Bullet: Production Staff
Sunghoo Park isn’t playing around—he’s directing under his studio E&H production with GAGA co-producing. Here’s the elite team firing on all cylinders:
- ✍️ Series Composition: Aki Kindaichi (Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray)
- 🎨 Character Design & Chief AD: Takahiro Yoshimatsu (Overlord, Hunter x Hunter 2011)
- 🚗 Car Action Direction: Shin Misawa (Initial D)
- 💥 Mechanical Design: Hidetaka Tenjin (Macross, Yamato)
Everything’s in place for a stylish, high-octane visual experience.
🌍 Wasteland Story With a Twist
Set in a world where civilization has collapsed and only scraps of the past remain, BULLET/BULLET follows:
Gear, a junk shop kid with a knack for machines, who teams up with a gambling-addicted polar bear and a robot with four split personalities. Their mission? Steal back what’s been unfairly taken. But when a mysterious girl named Noa seeks their help, they find themselves on a path that could change the world.
Think Mad Max, but with anime flair, robots, and way more sass.
