<Cast Comments
Meichan is the youngest girl who loves the chimimimos.
I am also the second daughter, so we fight a lot, but we still get along well. My sister Mutsu and sister Hazu, who is both kind and reliable, overlap with my sister, and I enjoyed recording them. In one scene, Mei-chan's behavior, which she doesn't do because it's too much trouble, is the same as mine, and I couldn't help smiling...!
Please enjoy the fun and exciting life of the Onigami family with the addition of Chimimomos and Jigoku-san!

Jigoku-san CV: Junichi Suwabe

When his mission goes wrong, he ends up staying with the Onigami family. Every day he is at the mercy of the human world, which he is not accustomed to.
When his emotions run high, he grows hair all over his body and becomes like a beast.

<Cast Comments
Mr. Hell, as the name suggests, is a messenger from hell. He is a deceptive spirit of the mountains and rivers, and strikes down human beings one after another in terror.
The hellscape is a horrifying one to even speak of.
We, the cast members, could not look at our monitors and perform the film, because the gore was far beyond the limits of what we had seen before.
This is a shocking and problematic film that will shake the world. Please don't miss it!

She is a money-grubber and treats Mr. Jigoku as a money-grubber. She is a drinker who loves Sunflower Beer.

<Cast Comments
I have been asked to voice Hazuki, the second daughter of the three sisters of the Onigami family!
Since the audition, I have felt a strange sense of familiarity with Hazuki...how easy she is to talk to. She has an air of friendliness about her.
Please watch and see what kind of story she will weave with the Onigami family and Chimimomos.
