＜Message from Mr. Kaito Ishikawa
My name is Kaito Ishikawa, and I will be playing the role of Subaru Ichinose.
It is a work with a strong gap between the two, but I think it has evolved even further by being visualized with the impact of the original work intact.
The entire cast is rolling with the role, so please look forward to it!
