Hello, I’m Shibata Rie and I will be doing the voice for Rosa-obasan. I had much fun since this is my first time voicing as a TV anime character, and the character I will be playing has quite the personality. I even sang a children’s song in my act. The storyline is very firm and I believe people that don’t usually watch anime can enjoy this show. Please look forward to seeing how I get involved with Somali, the main heroine.
