Premiering November 21, the animation adventure series Tokyo Override invites viewers to explore Tokyo, 100 years in the future, where AI is integrated into daily life and urban living is fully automated. In this seemingly ideal society, a group of misfit protagonists, riding motorcycles now deemed obsolete, uncover a hidden and formidable evil.

The star-studded voice cast has been announced, along with key art and stills that showcase the charming characters and fast-paced bike action scenes that take place throughout the streets of Tokyo.

Ai Fairouz (Jolyne Cujoh from JoJos Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean, Kikoru Shinomiya from Kaiju No. 8) as Kai, the protagonist who embarks on a journey with the outcast biker group, Suma Garage.

Ryota Takeuchi (Elias Ainsworth from The Ancient Magus Bride) as Hugo, Tomoaki Maeno (White Blood Cell from Cells at Work!) as Spoke, Mariya Ise (Himeno from Chainsaw Man) as Watari, and Shigeru Chiba (Buggy from One Piece) as Yukio, members of the biker group Suma Garage.

Yu Serizawa (Mini Yaemori from Rent-A-Girlfriend) as Ayumi, the only friend that Kai had, prior to meeting Suma Garage.

Hochu Otsuka (Jiraiya from Naruto) as Kageyama, a veteran narcotics agent on Kai's trail.

Miyu Irino (Saji Crossroad from Mobile Suit Gundam 00 series) as Yasumoto, Kageyama's subordinate assisting in the pursuit.

Yuhko Kaida (Sylvia Sherwood from SPY x FAMILY) as Ieuji, an administration officer in Tokyo's digital department who aids the group of outcasts.

In Tokyo Override, Kai, a loner, finds her life taking a turn after encountering a unique biker group. This opens a new chapter for her, filled with unexpected troubles, mysteries, betrayals, and other dramatic developments that accelerate the unpredictable story.

The series is directed by Yuske Fukada, a rising storyteller known for co-producing Ultimate Beastmaster with Sylvester Stallone, and Veerapatra Jinanavin, who combines Hollywood experience with Thai sensibilities to create advanced animation. In addition, the series features real-life models and custom-designed motorcycles, in collaboration with Yamaha Motor Co. and Honda Motor Co.

Experience the thrill of speed in Tokyo Override, a pop and noir motorcycle action animation premiering November 21, exclusively on Netflix.
