<Cast Comments
Hisanari Fukamachi as Ard
I have the honor of playing the role of Ard Meteor, the "former" Demon King.
I am very proud to play the role of Ard Meteor, a character with a wide range of personality, who has the memory and personality of having lived as the Demon King Varvatos, but who also acts as an ordinary person, Ard, in order to keep a low profile.
He has a wide range of personality, so it is very rewarding to play him!


Wakana Maruoka as Irina
Everything is so impressive and wonderful that I can still remember the lines I said when I auditioned for the role. I am so happy to be able to create such a world as a part of Irina. I am sure that you will fall in love with this world and the people in it!
Irina-chan! Let's run through this world together!


Hina YAMOMIYA as Ginny
I am pleased to announce that I will be playing the voice of Ginny. I'm Hina Yotsumiya, and I'll be playing the voice of Ginny.
I am very happy and excited to be able to join Ginny and her friends in this adventure...!
I was given a lot of strength by Ginny-chan's courage to do her best, and I participated in the recording.
I am really looking forward to seeing her in the anime!


OP Theme Artist: Ayaka Ohashi
My name is Ayaka Ohashi, and I am in charge of the OP theme song. This time, I wanted to express the world view with a heavier sound, so I took on the challenge of creating a heavy song with a metal feel for the first time as a single. I want to have a friend! I want to have a friend!
This song is a song that expresses the feeling of "I want to have a friend! I would be happy if I could help you enjoy the work even more with this song. I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of video will be attached to it now! Thank you in advance!
