■Impressions of your character
Anubis is a very honest and gentle child.
He gets very excited when he is with his friends, and shows to be a naive and innocent soul.
From the other side, he can also be mature and thoughtful of his friends, which proof is given when he is suddenly attacked by one of them and he first tries to understand their reasons before making a fuss about it.
■Attractive points
Although it features a warm atmosphere, I like to see that it also includes an unexpected and funny turn of events.
Also, I like how the Egyptian Gods are unfazed by everything, which is kind of cute!
■A message to the fans
That was a little unexpected…
The anime “Toutotsu ni Egypt Kami” is a very interesting work!
It's a heartwarming comedy filled with cute characters who sometimes show to be calm and relaxed, and sometimes get totally mad.
I think that everyone can enjoy this work, so I'd be happy if many of you watched it.
[Kaji Yuuki, the voice of Thoth]
■Impressions of your character
Thoth is the God of Wisdom who is known for his elegant use of language.
That's why I got the impression that he talks very briskly.
At the same time, he also looks very cute with a carefree personality, so I tried to create a well-balanced play by combining the two different sides of his character.
■Attractive points
Since Thoth and Anubis had to say together the line, “Zuttomo desu” (Friends Forever), I truly enjoyed playing him while being careful of the tempo synchronization with my partner.
■A message to the fans
I'm very honored to be a part of the so much popular “Toutotsu ni Egypt Kami”.
When I saw the videotape recorder we received in advance for the dubbing, I thought at first, 'It would be absolutely great if it turned out like this!'. But when we finished the recording session, I felt like it became even more interesting than before.
We're still working on all the characters' voices and plays…
I haven't been able to listen to the finished work, so I can't wait to see it!
I hope that those who have been supporting this work so far will be able to entirely enjoy it, so keep your expectations high!
It was a great pleasure to give my voice to Thoth!
