<Cast Comments
Q1: What is your impression of this film?
It is a very peaceful, warm, gentle and cute story. From my experience with various works, I rarely feel embarrassed during recording now, but I felt funny watching the exchange between "senpai and junpai" (senior and junior). I think it is a work that gently and wonderfully moves the heart.

Q2: What is your impression of the character you play and how do you feel about playing him?
To be honest, I really enjoy playing the chief character. As a voice actor, I am very grateful to have been entrusted with his voice. In this gentle and peaceful world, Chihiro Akina moves freely, peacefully, and warmly, both in mind and body, in search of love. Please look forward to the activities of this mysterious chief.

Chinatsu Hayakawa CV: Yumiri Hanamori
Born on October 9. She is a new employee who is the same age as Shinozaki. She is in charge of design in the 2nd Development Section.
She and Shinozaki grew up in the same neighborhood and attended the same junior high school. He has a refreshing personality and a clear-cut way of speaking.
He keeps it a secret from all of his colleagues except Shinozaki, but he has an otaku hobby and enjoys cosplay.

Q1: What is your impression of this work?
It is healing. I can't get enough of the wonderful, soothing atmosphere.
If I could have a moment with such a wonderful senior in my daily work, I would surely look forward to getting up every day!

Q2: What is your impression of the character you play and how do you feel about playing her?
Hayakawa-chan is a nice girl with a cool atmosphere at first glance, but she actually has a cute and maidenly side to her. I'm sure you will be charmed by the gap between the two......I'm sure!

Yutaka Shinozaki CV: Mikako Komatsu
Born on November 2. She is Takuma's older sister.
She has always been attracted to "small and cute things," and she has a soft spot for Shiori, whom she met by chance.
She realizes that if Takuma marries Shiori, she will become his sister-in-law, and begins to make advances toward Takuma.

<Cast Comments
Q1: What is your impression of this film?
A heartwarming office romantic comedy that endlessly soothes a rough heart!
How pure the main characters are...!
The members of the company have their own quirks, but it must be fun to have such people around...what a nice company...!　And it must be fun to be the actor...! And the actors must be fun too...! The recording sessions were very heartwarming.

Q2: What is your impression of the character you play and how do you feel about playing him?
Yutaka is a very surreal character, with a gap between being very calm and being a lover of cute things. Anyway, I can't stop loving Shiori!　He is mysteriously very communicative, even getting along with people at his brother Shinozaki's company without even knowing it. She has a particularly strong affinity with Hayakawa...!
I think we had a very nice teamwork during the recording sessions, so please look forward to it!
