VICONIC

Jua (CV: Nozomi Nagumo)
She has a personality that allows her to be frank with anyone. She is very forward even when meeting people for the first time, and often overwhelms them.
She truly loves Seah.

<Cast Comments
My name is Nozomi Nagumo, and I play the role of Jua.
At first, I thought she was a cool, cool girl. But after the first recording, I was directed to be a "super energetic girl! I was shocked at the gap between the two.
From that point on, I felt like I was able to get to know Jua better and better, and I am very happy to be able to walk through the world of "Kizuna no Ariru" with her.
I will run through the world with full of energy to convey the charm of expressive, powerful, and hardworking Jua!
Thank you all for your support!

■Sea (CV: Tsukino)
Although highly skilled as a virtual artist, she is a realist who believes that she is only attracting attention while she still can.
Although she doesn't show it outwardly, she loves Jua.

<Cast Comments>
My name is Tsukino, and I play the role of Cea.
Up until now, I have mainly sung, and this was my first experience to do postrecording for an anime, so I was very excited and thrilled to take on the challenge.
The video is so cute and beautiful, and I am really excited to be involved in such a wonderful work. I am very much looking forward to seeing it on air.
I am so happy that one of my big dreams has come true in such a wonderful way.

I think that Cea is quite cool and glamorous, a little twitchy, but she has a great love inside her.
I love her, VICONIC, and her partner Jua! (˶-˶)
When he announced his acceptance as a surprise, he said.
I hope I can depict the process of growing up with the characters,
I feel that I would like to grow with Céa...and my friends.
I would like to challenge various things with sincerity.
I hope you will enjoy "Kizuna no Ariru"!

I am looking forward to working with you all!
