Kanagawa Elves Gets Live-Action Adaptation & TV Light Anime

The upcoming live-action adaptation of Yoroida’s fantasy comedy manga Kanagawa Elves (#Kanagawa ni Sunderu Elf) has revealed its narrator as actor and musician Ray Fujita, with the series premiering on September 30th, 2025. The show will air within TV Kanagawa’s local midday program Neko no Hitai Hodo Wide, where Fujita once hosted. Cast members include Sion Yoshitaka as the Elf from Yokohama, Ryōtarō Akazawa as the Human from Kawasaki, Teruhisa Takura as the Elf from Yokosuka, Junya Asada as the Elf from Chigasaki, Rion Hatakeyama as the Elf from Sagamihara, and Ryūga Akahane as the Orc from Machida. Directed and scripted by Oolongta Yoshida, the series humorously depicts elves displaced from their burned forest now leading everyday lives in Kanagawa. A television light anime adaptation is planned to air in December.
