The Vermilion Mask Releases Creditless Opening and Ending Videos Following Premiere

The Vermilion Mask released its creditless opening and ending videos following the anime’s October 10 premiere. The opening features MAN WITH A MISSION’s “Firestarter,” while yutori performs the ending theme “Koe.”

MAN WITH A MISSION commented on “Firestarter”:

“a powerful song, one that could give a push to the adventure of these young people who have been saddled with such a cruel fate.”

yutori also commented on “Koe,” which means “voice”:

“You can’t erase the past, but the act of carrying it and still trying to move forward is surely something that overlaps with our own everyday lives.”

The anime was previously confirmed as a two-part series, with the first cour set to run in Fall 2026. The anime is directed by Tetsuaki Watanabe with One Double-O studio handling animation production. Daisuke Ohigashi oversees the series composition, Hisashi Higashijima serves as character designer and chief animation director, and Alisa Okehazama is composing the music. Original creators Dr. Poro and Nabana Naba are also supervising the story. Crunchyroll is streaming the anime.

• Kenji Nojima as Hien
• Aoi Koga as Lasgarl
