Keiya Saito (Rokudo’s Bad Girls) directs Dead Account, with Mitsutaka Hirota (Rent-a-Girlfriend) overseeing scripts and Keiji Inai (Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?) composing music at Nippon Columbia for the Synergy SP production.

The main cast includes Nobuhiko Okamoto as Soji Enishiro, Koki Uchiyama as Kukuru Kasubata and Fairouz Ai as Kiyomi Urusugawa. The following new cast members were also revealed this week:

Natsuki Hanae voices Renri Hasumi

Machico voices Hiyori Haijima

Ryota Suzuki voices Maruhiko Emoto

Takuya Sato voices Yoimaru Azaki

Here’s the new visual:

In Dead Account, ghosts can now also be found on the Internet, which is something 15-year-old Soji Enishiro runs into first-hand when one attacks him online. Enishiro spends his days streaming provocative, clickbait-style content to earn money for his younger sister’s medical bills, but after this spiritual awakening he finds himself recruited by a group of exorcist trainers at Miden Academy who specialize in ghosts residing in the digital world.

The manga first kicked off in Weekly Shonen Magazine in January 2024 and has been collected in 11 volumes as of June 17. Kodansha publishes Dead Account in English through its K MANGA service.
