The digest video released this time summarizes the contents of episodes 1 to 3 and 4 to 6, with narration by Matsunojo Kanda, a storyteller who voices Masotan and other OTFs (Odd-Type Flying Figures) in this work. The video also features illustrations by Toshinao Aoki, the original character designer.

Matsunojo Kanda, storyteller
Kanda Matsunojo became a Kanda Matsunokoi III in 2007 at the age of 24, and was promoted to the second rank in May 2012. He has performed in a number of solo performances that have been sold out one after another, and has garnered much attention as an up-and-coming storyteller. Winner of the Silver Prize at the 2008 Hanagata Engei Grand Prix.


Kanda-san, who has never used words in his works, narrates this video as a kodan master. He even brought his own koshaku stand into the studio for the recording, and the video has the atmosphere of a live kodan performance, including the sound of him tapping his fan to set the tone.

Mr. Kanda is so popular that he is now called the hardest to get tickets for. We hope that you will check out his work not only as a kodanist, but also as he is expected to continue to be active in a variety of media, including this film.
