A traveling monk whose name is "Cherry. When he sees Ataru, he says he has a sinister look, and his bad premonitions often come true.

<Comments by Wataru Takagi
What does "Urusei Yatsura" mean to you?
I am attracted to the characters because there are many characters with two sides to them, such as a clumsy guy who looks handsome but is actually handsome, a cute but powerful guy, or a beautiful but gluttonous guy. I am fascinated by the characters. It seems to be a slapstick comedy, but there are also some serious stories in it, and it is like a Kintarame of entertainment that can be enjoyed no matter where you cut it (laugh).

Q2: What is the appeal of Cherry, and what do you look forward to about playing the role of Cherry?
He is a plague, if you can call him that (laughs), but when he doesn't appear, I feel a little sad, and I can't help but hate him. It is impossible to imitate Ichiro Nagai's exquisite timing and the way he played the character so charmingly, but I hope to enjoy myself and stir things up so that I can be a spice in the story.

Sakura cv Sawashiro Miyuki


A beautiful woman with outstanding style. She has a face as a miko (shrine maiden) and warns Ataru as soon as she sees him that he has a "woman trouble".

<Comments by Miyuki Sawashiro
Q1: What does "Urusei Yatsura" mean to you?
I was so impressed by the energy of Mr. Toshio and his seniors (and the cuteness of Ram-chan, who is soft and fluffy and on another level of cuteness), that I fell on my butt. I'm here...!

Q2: What do you find attractive about Sakura, what do you value in playing this role, and what are you looking forward to?
I don't know where her true feelings lie... (laugh) I personally feel that she has a mysterious charm that is elusive. I hope we can get to know each other a little bit better.
