One of KPop Demon Hunter’s Saja Boys Will Join 2026’s Most Anticipated Anime

Netflix’s animated film, KPop Demon Hunter, quickly became popular with fans of both anime and K-pop, demonstrating a fantastic combination of the two. The movie was particularly notable for its use of music and featured the Saja Boys, a K-pop group who served as the villains and were key to the story’s direction. The group’s impact was strengthened by excellent voice acting. Now, Alan Lee, who voiced the character Mystery Saja in the film, will be taking on a new role in a highly anticipated anime set to release in 2026.

2026 promises a lot of great anime, but many fans are most excited for the third season of Jujutsu Kaisen. Returning in January 2026, the new season picks up after the devastating events in Shibuya, where the loss of Gojo Satoru has left the world of sorcery in crisis. The season will introduce new characters, and it’s now confirmed that Alan Lee will voice Naoya Zenin, adding to the anticipation.

KPop Demon Hunter’s Mystery Saja Joins Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3

I’m excited to share that Naoya will be voiced by Alan Lee in the English dub! He’s done some fantastic work before, including roles like Mystery Saja in ‘Mystery Saja,’ Kang Taeshik in ‘Solo Leveling,’ and Junpei Hyuga in ‘Kuroko’s Basketball.’

Voice actor Alan Lee, known for playing Mystery Saja in the English dub of KPop Demon Hunter, will be joining the cast of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 as Naoya Zenin. Fans are thrilled about this casting, as Lee has quickly become a popular voice actor thanks to his roles like Mystery Saja and, more recently, Kang Taeshik, the skilled assassin from Season 1 of Solo Leveling. His performance in those roles suggests he’ll be a perfect fit for the complex character of Naoya Zenin, and is a positive sign for the quality of the English dub.

Alan Lee excels at portraying threatening characters, as demonstrated by his roles as the villains Kang Taeshik and Mystery Saja (though Mystery Saja was less overtly evil). With Naoya potentially being even more menacing, Lee is becoming a favorite voice actor for dark and complex roles. Season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen, already highly anticipated as the biggest anime release of 2026, is looking incredibly promising thanks to a talented cast that includes actors from Netflix’s popular KPop Demon Hunter. It’s shaping up to be a fantastic season that will likely meet all expectations.
