＜Comment from Seie Yoshioka
I am very honored to be in charge of the opening theme song for the TV anime "Cuckoo's Bride" with the song "Convexity".
The song was written and composed by Haruko Nagaya of Green and Yellow Society, and is the most wonderful and uplifting love song! What a surprise, the performance was also done by everyone from Green Yellow Society. I'm so happy!
I would be happy if I could color the main characters of "Cuckoo's Forgiveness" who are tossed about by fate, and this anime! I hope you enjoy both the anime and "Convexity"!

Additional cast members include Ryohei Kimura and Tomoyuki Morikawa!

Ryohei Kimura will play Yohei Umino, the father of the main character "Nagi Umino", Yoko Hikasa will play Namie Umino, the mother, Tomoyuki Morikawa will play Soichiro Amano, the father of the heroine "Erika Amano", and Yukiko Aruga will play Ritsuko Amano, the mother! Comments have also arrived.

Ryohei Kimura as Yohei Umino
As fans of the original know well, this is a work that makes you smile from the bottom of your heart.
And now, at last, the anime broadcast!
Together with Namie, I would like to watch over Nagi and her friends with warmth and adult receptiveness.

Yoko Hikasa, who plays Namie Umino
She may look like an ex-junkie and THE mother, but her children come first.
I hope you will warm your heart by watching Namie, who has such a deep and broad heart of love and nostalgia.
The highlight of the show is of course the interaction between Nagi and the heroines, but I feel that family is also a theme, and it makes me think that family connections, support, and love can take many different forms and perspectives.
Please look forward to the broadcast!

Tomoyuki Morikawa, who plays Soichiro Amano
I play Soichiro Amano, a wealthy man who runs a hotel.
At first glance, he exudes a friendly and amiable atmosphere, but he is a key man behind the scenes of the story that is not straightforward and out of this world.
I will do my best to play the role of his father, Soichiro, so that fans can enjoy the anime version of "The Cuckoo's Forgiving Bride" to the fullest.
Please give me your best regards!

Yukiko Aruga as Ritsuko Amano
Both Mr. and Mrs. Amano and Mrs. Unno are really wonderful parents who care about their children very much.
I hope to warmly watch over their adorable children's love lives, while sometimes shaking them around (?). I will continue to watch over them warmly, and sometimes even to push them around!
