In June 2010, the Warner Brothers Japanese site announced the production of a Supernatural anime to be released in January 2011, later changed to February 2011.

The studio producing this series is MADHOUSE. The first season will be twenty-two episodes covering the first two seasons of the original, live-action series. In addition to remaking some episodes of the original series, they have added new stories that cover the brothers' childhood, focus on secondary characters, and introduce new, anime-only enemies.

Yuya Uchida (Soul Eater's Dr. Franken Stein, Naruto Shippūden's Rinji) voices Sam, and Hiroki Touchi (Trinity Blood's Abel Nightroad, Bokurano's Kokkpelli) voices Dean. Both actors voiced these same roles for the live-action series when it was dubbed in Japanese. Source

You can see some of these actors' work on Supernatural Singing Dead or Alive from 3.16 No Rest For The Wicked.

At the Rising Con Spain 2010, Jensen and Jared confirmed the project and that they'd seen and approved the artwork for Sam and Dean. They also said they would voice the first couple of English language episodes. Confirmation that Jensen and Jared will dub two episodes in the second box into English Source.

The Winchester brothers (Sam and Dean) will be designed to look like the original actual actors (Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki). Sub characters: e.g. John, Bobby, Mary, Jessica etc. will be designed in a completely new way to give fresh impression. Enemies (Creatures, Demon and Ghosts) will be given a cool design taking full advantage of Japanese anime expression.
