It's been a while since we posted about the Servamp TV anime adaptation, which now has an official premiere date. According to the official website, the series based on Strike Tanaka's manga is set to make its AT-X debut on July 5, followed by July 6 airings on Tokyo MX, Sun TV, and Nagoya TV, and a July 12 premiere on BS NTV.

Last time we updated, OLDCODEX's "Deal with" opening theme and Takuma Terashima's "sunlight avenue" ending theme had just been announced. Now there's a new promo that previews some of the anime's cast and their respective voices, and also samples the opening theme.

Some of the recently showcased cast members include:

Tetsu Sendagaya - voiced by Yuuki Ono (Taiga Kagami in Kuroko's Basketball): 14-year-old heir to the hot springs. Tetsu is relaxed and straightforward, but his absurd strength has many people mistaking him for much older. He doesn't make much effort to hide his connection to vampires, going so far as to carry his coffin around in the open.

Hugh the Dark Algernon III - voiced by Ayumu Murase (Shoyo Hinata in Haikyu!!): Hugh is an extremely arrogant character who thinks he's the only "true" vampire. While he's the second oldest Servamp, he takes on a childlike form, and transforms into a bat when exposed to sunlight.

Licht Jekkyland Todoroki - voiced by Nobunaga Shimazaki (Haruka Nanase in Free!): 18-year-old Licht is a world-renowned pianist from Austria who also thinks he's an angel. He's very violent toward vampires, but his cold and cruel tendencies belie a tender heart.

Lawless - voiced by Ryohei Kimura (L-elf in Valvrave the Liberator): Lawless is a good fighter who has a contract with Licht and a good relationship with the creator of the Servamps. He turns into a hedgehog when exposed to sunlight
