Ryutaro Okiayu (Trevor)
When I received the script, I was surprised to hear that there was a foreign dubbed film. I was surprised. Then I looked at the cast list twice! (laughs) Coincidence! It was a coincidence! (laughs) That's why I'm the Belmondo family man. Well, it's a long story, so let's talk about it some other time somewhere else (laughs).　First of all, please search for "Castlevania: Nocturne in the Moonlight". You will understand why I was puzzled.

Shinichiro Miki (Alucard)
A historical video game that was created in Japan has returned as an animated film in a different form in a different country. I used to be a radio personality for this work, so I feel a connection with it and am very happy to be able to participate.
