Ueda Yuuji, playing Horohoro
Q. Please tell us your recommended part of this series.
Connections.

A journey that never ends even after death.

The series itself is full of eternal love and kindness delivered characters to characters.

You have to look into the abyss if you are given a wonderful side episode, spinoff, and sequels.

Q. Please tell us your feeling toward playing Horohoro.
I will take a new journey thinking, whether it will be a recounter or a new encounter, hoping to fulfill ramie leaves with sunlight.

Nakajima Megumi, playing Kororo
Q. Please tell us your recommended part of this series.

This anime is going to answer the questions like, ‘what is “strength”?’ and ‘what it truly means to “think about others?”‘, together with humor and lightness. I always get encouraged every time You-kun says, “Everything will be alright”.

Q. Please tell us your motivation toward playing Kororo.
I never thought that I could be a part of the series. I will jump into the world of “SHAMAN KING” with history and feeling left by former actors. Please look forward to it!
