Jun Fukuyama

Jun Fukuyama: “I’m Jun Fukuyama, who play Lawrence. I never thought that I would play Lawrence in another animated series. Moreover, I thought it was a sequel until I received the script, so I was honestly surprised when I read it. Even though it is such a project, as long as I have been given the opportunity again, I will do as much as I can while keeping in mind the times”.

Ami Koshimizu

Ami Koshimizu:”I’m very happy to have the opportunity to play the role of Holo again.
