Crunchyroll Confirms Simuldub of ‘Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time,’ Reveals Voice Cast

As a seasoned anime enthusiast who has been following the world of manga and light novels for over two decades, I can confidently say that the upcoming adaptation of “Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time” is one I’ve been eagerly anticipating since its inception. Having spent countless hours immersed in various isekai stories throughout my life, I can attest to the unique blend of adventure, fantasy, and humor that this series promises to deliver.

The early release on dAnime Store and ABEMA for the first episode on New Year’s Day 2025 is a thoughtful touch that demonstrates the creators’ understanding of fans like myself who can’t wait to dive into the magical world of Kogitsunemaru. And with Crunchyroll providing a simuldub release, it’s clear they’re aiming to cater to both subbed and dubbed audiences alike – a move that is sure to be appreciated by fans across the globe.

The talented voice cast led by Zac Loera as Takumi Iruma and Rebecca Chiara Marano as Molly brings an exciting energy to the series, while the experienced staff ensures a high-quality production. The synopsis suggests a heartwarming adventure that combines the best of isekai storytelling with a unique twist on alchemy – a skill that turns our unlikely hero into a wealthy merchant and unbeatable warrior!

In terms of my personal experience, I’ve seen countless stories revolving around powerful heroes in other worlds. However, the idea of a seemingly ordinary person like Takumi Iruma, who accidentally finds himself in another world with a cheat-like alchemy skill, is both refreshing and intriguing. The fact that he can create everything from holy swords to flying ships adds an exciting layer of strategy to the story.

To top it all off, the series seems to be poised for success based on its growing popularity and upcoming anime debut. As a long-time fan of isekai, I won’t want to miss this one – especially with the English dub release coming hot on the heels of the subbed version! And let’s not forget the added bonus: with a goddess offering our protagonist any skill he wants, maybe she’ll consider granting me the ability to fast-forward through tedious real-life chores. Now that would be an alchemic power worth having!

Since 2017, the acclaimed alchemist of all times has been a beloved character from the popular isekai novel. Kogitsunemaru’s tale continued to grow in light novel and manga adaptations in 2018, and with an upcoming anime adaption, anticipation is reaching new heights.

The official debut of the anime has been scheduled for January 8, 2025. Yet, if you can’t wait to jump right in, the first episode will be accessible as early as January 1, 2025, on dAnime Store and ABEMA. This advanced release is creating a lot of excitement for what might become the next major success in the realm of anime known as “isekai.

Given the circumstances, fans have been curious about the dubbed version of the anime, and we’re thrilled to announce that we now have fresh details from Crunchyroll regarding the forthcoming dub release. This news is bound to bring joy to many fans!

As a long-time fan of anime who has often found myself eagerly waiting for dubbed versions to catch up with subtitled releases, I can’t help but feel a surge of excitement upon hearing that Crunchyroll will be delivering an English dub of “Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time” as a simuldub. This means no more agonizing waits for the dub to catch up – a blessing for many fans like myself who may not be fluent in Japanese or prefer to consume anime in their native language. The announcement of the voice cast and crew only adds fuel to the fire, as I eagerly anticipate hearing the talented actors bring these characters to life. It’s a testament to the growing popularity of anime that we are now seeing more and more simuldub releases, making it easier for fans all over the world to enjoy their favorite shows simultaneously. I can hardly wait!
