It's a fresh and hot scene with lots of young people, and I get to play the role of a young man! Sports are hot! Rugby is especially hot! The full-on runs and the hard-hitting tackles are hot, hot, hot!

I was also an experienced rugby player and played the same position, No. 3, so I felt very nostalgic at the recording studio. What I want to say is not enough with this number of words, so I want you to call me for radio or commentary! Really, please!

Comment from the cast
The high school I went to had a rugby club. When I read the original story, I remembered the scene where they ran, got covered in mud, and chased the ball more than any other sports club. Scrums, tackles, runs, kicks... every scene is a sweaty, powerful image! And the recording site was hot, too! Everyone is sweating as they perform. As Toshiro Wada, I was ALLOUT! I was able to act as Toshiro Wada in the film! Please take a look!

Mitsuo Hanadate / CV: Tsubasa Shironaga
He is a freshman and plays on the wing. Despite his appearance, he has a dual personality. He is hostile toward Ishikishimizu, another first-year student from Kamiko, whom he played against in a prefectural tournament in junior high school.

I never thought I would be playing the role of Hanakatate-kun of Todo Dai Sagami High School, so I was really happy when I heard the news! Hanakatate-kun is not only cute, but he also has a black side to him, which makes him fun to play. I hope that everyone who watches the game will be able to feel that. Please enjoy the passionate games between high school boys with a burning heart! I'm sure you won't be able to stop your heart from pounding! As a member of ALL OUT! As a member of the cast, I hope I can help make the show more exciting together with you all!

I am very excited to be a part of a rugby film, which I believe to be the first TV animation work. When I was a student, I used to cheer for rugby matches at Hanazono because I am from Osaka. I have no experience of actually playing rugby, but I would like to use the power of my voice to play rugby as much as I can in this work, so please continue to support "ALL OUT! I would like to use the power of my voice to play rugby as best I can in this work.

When I saw Horikawa-kun, I thought, "Oh, I like this girl. I thought, "I can't get enough of that lowered eyebrow. As for his personality...I love him. I liked that she never wavers. The way he treats others...it's for the sake of winning...Horikawa is a studious guy...it would be nice if he could show that kind of hardworking attitude!
