Cast Comments
Hiro Shimono as Nez
I have appeared in past TV series of "Pokemon" before, but it had been quite a while, so I was a little nervous... (laughs) I went into the recording with the intention of putting my heart into it and doing my best.
Nez has his own way of thinking about Pokemon battles, and I can sympathize with him more when he has his own way of thinking. I had a lot of fun playing a character with such a gap between the two, so please look forward to the activities of the Spike siblings, along with his younger sister Mariy!

Yui Ogura, who plays Marie
I have been familiar with "Pokemon" games and anime ever since I can remember, so I was very happy when I was chosen to play the role of Mariy. I felt that Mariy is not only cute, but also a cool girl with a strong core.
Especially during battles, she fights passionately and with a clear will of her own. In order to express that passion, I gave it my all to Satoshi. This time, I was able to record with Shimono-san, who played Nezu. During recording, he was very concerned about me as if he were my real brother. I think we were able to reflect such interactions in our performance, so I hope you are looking forward to the broadcast!

I hope you are looking forward to the broadcast!
