Poverty forced him to become a plant: the creators of “Fool’s Night” presented a new video about the main character

All episodes of the anime will be released on Netflix on November 26.

Bandai Namco has unveiled a new video for the anime “Fool’s Night”, dedicated to the protagonist Toshiro Kamiya. He is voiced by Koki Uchiyama, known to viewers for his role as Gen Narumi in “Kaiju No. 8”.

“Fool’s Night” is set in a world where dense clouds have long blotted out the sun, most plant life has died off, and humanity suffers from a lack of oxygen. To survive under these conditions, people have learned to turn the dying into plants through a special procedure known as transflora. Toshiro decides to undergo it due to poverty, but after the transformation, he discovers an unusual ability: he can hear those who have also undergone transflora. This draws the attention of a clinic, which hires the protagonist to investigate a series of murders committed by one of the transformed.

Studios Sunrise and SHAFT are handling the anime’s production. Atsushi Yukawa serves as director, while Jin Tanaka is responsible for the music. All episodes of “Fool’s Night” will be released on Netflix on November 26, 2026.
