--Celebration! The anime adaptation has been decided! Please tell us about your enthusiasm for the character you are going to play and your impression of her.
I am sure that the two of them are filled with dreams and hopes for each and every one of our readers. I would like to study Mr. Takagi not only from his point of view, but also from the same point of view as Nishikata, so that I can come as close as possible to the image of Mr. Takagi that you have in your mind.

--Message to those who will be watching the anime
Congratulations on the anime adaptation! And it still feels like a dream to be involved in this work. I am very nervous and under a lot of pressure, but I will borrow Mr. Takagi's brains and Mr. Kaji's Nishikata power and have a lot of fun! I look forward to working with you from now on!"

Yuki Kaji as Nishikata

--Congratulations! The anime adaptation has been decided! Please tell us about your enthusiasm for the character you will be playing and your impression of the character.
I was very enthusiastic about the audition, and I was very determined to play the role of Nishikata-kun. I went into the audition with a lot of enthusiasm! I'm going to get back at Mr. Takagi, being conscious of the exquisite feeling of a middle-schooler who is about to become a middle-schooler and has not yet lost his elementary-school age! （I can't do it!

-Message to the viewers
Let's make fun of Mr. Takagi as much as we can in the anime!
