Good Smile Company has kicked off its 25th anniversary in a big way. Big as in giant, combining robot big. There’s no better way for a toy company to celebrate its anniversary than that, is there? Let’s take a look at their big plans. The great combining robot Dandivine saved the world from the Aposdoll, leading to an age of peace that lasted for twenty years. A toy company’s declining profits led the CEO to wish for their return. We’ll see what happens when his wish comes true when Jyu-Oh Mujin Dandivine (Beast King War God Dandivine) premieres sometime in October 2026.
This week marks a very special celebration for the U.S., and J-List is getting into the proper spirit with a big July 4 Sale. Celebrate with 15% off all in-stock products shipping from Japan through Monday, July 6. Start browsing here!
Good Smile Company created this original Jyu-Oh Mujin Dandivine anime series to celebrate the company’s 25th anniversary. Liden Films will animate the series.
Jyu-Oh Mujin Dandivine Cast
The new Dandivine pilot and two of his friends are as follows:
- Gekiha Shijima — Takuma Terashima (Lent Marslink from Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout). Gekiha is the grandson of Kasuga’s CEO and the nephew of the former Dandivine pilot.
- Akane Kuzumi — Haruka Shiraishi (Chitose Shirakawa in The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten). Akane is Gekiha’s girlfriend.
- Kirei Shijima — Saya Aizawa (Hiromi Seki in The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls Theater). Kirei is Gekiha’s younger sister.
Liden Films and Kayac Animation maintain a website and a Twitter (X) account to promote Jyu-Oh Mujin Dandivine. You can find more information about the series and the key visuals at those sites.
Jyu-Oh Mujin Dandivine Rises Again
The mysterious Aposdoll invaded the earth and turned Tokyo into its battleground twenty years ago. Humanity found hope with the great combining robot Dandivine. The Dandivine’s main pilot, Yusaku Kuroiwa, led the charge and eventually prevailed against the Aposdoll, ushering in an age of peace. His relative Genjuro Shijima even turned a profit on the whole thing by making toy versions of Dandivine.
Though peace reigned and everyone was happy, Genjuro found himself at a literal loss. His Kasuga toy manufacturer heavily relied on Dandivine, and after twenty years of peace, his company is in decline. Perhaps it was all a coincidence, or someone had heard him, but his wish for Dandivine to reappear and face the Aposdoll came true. With his old enemies appearing once again, Yusaku Kuroiwa drafts his nephew Gekiha Shijima as the next main Dandivine pilot.
