Bak-ON! The new character in the second OAD is Hikari, a young version of the butler Hayakawa! The cast will be played by Uesaka Sumire!

The TV anime "Bak-ON! Bak-ON!", which will be released on December 20, 2016 (Tuesday). The illustration of a new character "Hikari Hayakawa," who will appear in the second original anime DVD attached to the limited special edition of the 9th volume of the comics, which will be released on Tuesday, December 20, 2016, has been unveiled.


Bak-ON! is a manga serialized in Young Champion Retsu by Mana Orimoto. In the anime that aired in the spring of 2016, five motorcycle makers (Kawasaki, SUZUKI, DUCATI, HONDA, and YAMAHA) were featured in the story, and the main character, "Hikari Hayakawa," is a young girl who is interested in motorcycles. HONDA, YAMAHA, and other motorcycle-related companies fully cooperated in the anime, which became a hot topic for its use of realistic motorcycle running sounds.


The second OAD includes a new episode based on episode 40 of the original comic "Meido! which was not depicted in the TV series. The members of the motorcycle club at the hilltop girls' high school, including Hane, But, Onsa, Sei, Chisame, and Raimu, will once again play an active role in the animated series.


The new character "Hikari Hayakawa" is a young version of Hayakawa, the butler of the Minowa family of the young lady character Hijiri Minowa, who appears in the TV anime as an elderly dandy gentleman, but in the second OAD episode, he is an envious boy (?). He is also dressed as a maid! And for some reason, he is dressed as a maid! The mystery deepens...


The character "Hikari Hayakawa" is played by popular voice actress Sumire Uesaka, a member of the splendid cast! The following is a comment from Uesaka after the post recording.


The following is Uesaka's comment after the postrecording.
I played the role of Ms. Hayakawa, a butler who has been rejuvenated both physically and mentally by riding a motorcycle!
I can enjoy her youthful appearance, which is quite different from the usual elegant butler Ms. Hayakawa, who is mischievous and childish (laugh).
Of course, the motorcycle also plays a big role! The young lady is also very active! Raimu-senpai is cool!
Please take a look!
