Teacher/Fukuyama Jun:
Hello, I’m Fukuyama Jun, the one who will be playing the role of Teacher in the anime adaptation of The Girl From the Other Side.
When I first took a look at the manga I was so drawn by its picturesque quality that I even forgot that I’d gotten the role, and found myself completely immersed in it.
After reading the manga, I feel like I understand the complexity of the character Teacher, which gives me a strong resolve to perform my best in order to entertain the audience. I really intend to give my all. I’m sure more information will be released soon enough, but I look forward to the day where Teacher and Shiva’s story after the conclusion of the manga is finally unveiled, by envisioning how much the fans will be pleased.
Do look forward to it too.
Shiva/Takahashi Rie:
Hi, I’m Takahashi Rie and I’ll be voicing the fluffy Shiva, who moves around and at times shows her delicate side.
While paying attention to match the overall feel of the manga, I will strive to voice the character in the most adequate way.
I’m also very excited to see what number of lines and the mood they create by working alongside Fukuyama!
Please do cheer for us!
