■Jin: Yuki Shin

＜Comment from Yuki Shin

My name is Yuki Shin, and I play the role of Jin. First of all, I was extremely happy when I heard that I would be playing Jin! When I read the original story, I thought it was really cool and I was really attracted to the fact that he was a ninja. Although Jin is an enemy of Shiki and his friends, I felt that he has a strong and reasonable will. It's like he's in it for a reason. Please look forward to seeing how he will appear in front of Shiki and his friends and get involved with them!

Labilia Christie: Ayumi Ayano

It is nice to meet you! My name is Ayumi Ayano, and I will be playing the role of Lavilia Christie.
I am very, very happy to be cast in a work by Hiro Mashima, whom I have loved since I was a child.
I will do my best to be a good rival(?) to Rebecca. I will do my best to be a good rival(?) of Rebecca, so please pay attention to Labilia as well.
