Kikaku Hanbee, voice by Kimura Ryouhei
Kikaku is a character that has a special stimulus trait within this super exciting work!
It’s quite tiring when voicing him, but it was fun at the same time.
To those who know “Uramichi Oniisan” starting from the anime, I hope you will pamper him!
Uebu Saito, voice by Suzumura Kenichi
I’m Suzumura, who will be voicing Uebu Saito.
“Uramichi Oniisan” is very interesting! It seems that an adults has various types of side (haha)
It seem that Uebu doesn’t have two face personality, so he might have a great life… (haha)
I hope that everyone can look forward to the anime!
Nekota Matahiko, voice by Ono Daisuke
At a single glance, Nekota seem like a useless and easygoing adults, but he actually have a good common sense.
He is able to distinguish between things among the unique characters, and I have voice him in a serious and relax manner.
Do look forward to it.
