Comment from Joji Nakata

I am Joji Nakata, one of the founders of this project. I am one of the founders of this project, Joji Nakata. I am so impressed and surprised when I see how the field of voice actors' activities has been expanding recently that I even want to see a "Seiyu Kohaku Uta Gassen" (Seiyu Red and White Singing Contest). I even tweeted about it on Twitter. I was so surprised by the reaction of the fans. It is like a dream come true that we are able to issue a press release today with the wonderful support of Tohoku Shinsha, a producer of Tohoku Shinsha, who heard the feedback from the fans. I know it is a big undertaking, and there are many things we have not done well, but with your help, the entire production team is working hard to make this event a success so that you will be glad you came. We are looking forward to your support!
