■Additional Cast Comments
【Sarasa CV: Misaki Kuno】
I'm Misaki Kuno, and I'll be playing Sarasa.
I love the atmosphere of Yuji Iwahara-sensei's original work, so I'm very happy to be involved as a cast member.
The staff's passion for the work was amazing, and the voice recording sessions were always very fun and exciting. I put my best into playing Sarasa.
Sarasa is a character appearing from the second season, and I hope you'll look forward to how she gets involved with Kuren and the others.
Thank you!
【Edison CV: Kotaro Nishiyama】
I'm Kotaro Nishiyama, and I'll be playing Edison. When I first read the comic, I was immediately drawn in by the depth of the story and the power of the artwork. I'm truly happy to be involved in this work! Inheriting the passion baton from the first season, I carefully portrayed Edison to make his charm feel more familiar. I remember the recording sessions were lively and fun with many cast members. The second season is also full of highlights, so please look forward to it!
【Mirea CV: Akira Sekine】
I'm Akira Sekine, and I'll be playing Mirea.
She was a character I really loved during the audition, so I'm incredibly happy to be able to play her!
The recording was a lot of fun, and also very challenging...
I took on the challenge with repeated direction.
I hope you will enjoy it.
Thank you all very much!
【Romane CV: Shiro Sano】
I met Director Taguchi Kiyotaka on "Long-Haired Kaiju Gehara" and we worked together again at the end of "Ultraman Orb." His recent activity has been remarkable, and he has produced many wonderful works such as "Ultraman Blazar." What is particularly noteworthy about the director is his meticulous approach to actors.
