After ten years in development, famed director Sunghoo Park, who has recently been awarded for Best Original Anime at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards 2025, returns with his long-awaited Original anime series “BULLET/BULLET”, coming July 16 exclusively to Disney+.
Set in a post-apocalyptic world where people are forced to repurpose junk from the Old World to survive, BULLET/BULLET follows Gear, a junk dealer with a secret. Working as a thief by night, Gear partners with Qu-0213, a robot with multiple personalities, and Shirokuma, a polar bear with a gambling problem, to steal whatever their clients require. Known as some of the best in the business, things take a turn for the team when they save a girl from a group of assassins, setting them on a path that puts them in direct conflict with the top echelons of their broken society.
BULLET/BULLET features an exceptional voice cast, including Marina Inoue (Attack on Titan, Smile PreCure!) as Gear, Kazuhiro Yamaji (PSYCHO-PASS, One-Punch Man) as polar bear Shirokuma, Rie Kugimiya (Gintama, Fullmetal Alchemist) as Nosa-Nee, and Kana Hanazawa (Quintessential Quintuplets, PSYCHO-PASS) as Kaw-Nee. The series is directed by Sunghoo Park (Jujutsu Kaisen SEASON1+THE MOVIE, The God of High School), is written by Aki Kindaichi (Uma Musume: Cinderella Grey), with character design by Chief Animation Director Takahiro Yoshimatsu (Future GPX Cyber Formula, Hunter x Hunter) and concept and mechanical designs by Hidetaka Tenjin (Movile Suit Gundam, Macross).
Famed rapper Chanmina lends her talents to the series, with “Work Hard”, an all-new track, set to feature as the BULLET/BULLET opening theme. Tokyo-based rock band Newspeak’s new song “Glass Door” will also be featured as the ending theme.
Set to release in two parts exclusively on Disney+, the first eight episodes of BULLET/BULLET will be available on July 16, with the final eight episodes arriving August 13.
