Cast Information & Comments!

Aoi Yuuki (Aoi Yuuki as Gina) comment
I especially loved Gina's story in the original work, so I was very happy when I found out that I would be playing the role of Gina. She is like a friend, like a lover, like a girl, like a witch... She is a character with many different faces and shows us so many different expressions that it was very rewarding to play her. I did my best to make her enjoyable to play! I hope you will enjoy it!

■Mariya Ise (Jace) comment
My name is Mariya Ise and I will be playing the role of Jace!
Jace is an enigmatic character with overwhelming strength and charisma who unites the members of the Round Table as the No. 1 leader of the organization Union. I am honored to have the opportunity to play such a fascinating character!
Juice's true face, hidden behind a mask, his inner life, his past.... I hope to play the role carefully one by one.

Rikiya Koyama (Billy) comment
May I have a word? I heard that the world is a very inconvenient place. But I don't like it. I don't like the idea of being swallowed by the waves. Waves are to be ridden.
Dive freely, swim as you like, and rule the ocean. It's cool to do what you want. Don't you think?
But, hey, no need to get all riled up. Don't worry. It will start soon. To all of you who have read the original and are looking forward to it. I need you all.

Rie Kugimiya (Tatiana) comment
My name is Rie Kugimiya, and I will be playing the role of Tatiana. The mysterious sphere is the first thing that catches your eyes about this character. There are many mysteries, but I want to enjoy playing the role as much as I can. I hope that everyone will enjoy the anime as much as the original story. I hope you will enjoy the anime as much as the original!

Comment from Nobuhiko Okamoto (Top)
I am Nobuhiko Okamoto and I will be playing the role of Top in "Undead Unluck". I am Nobuhiko Okamoto.
He is a young, always energetic, cheerful, and innocent character. It is rare for me to play such a character these days, so I am gathering up the youthfulness and purity inside me and going into the recording sessions.
There are many characters in this work, so I will put my energy into the top and do my best to make them memorable!

Hiroshi Yusa (who plays Nico)
I will be playing the role of Nico = Forgale this time.
He is a person riding on a black, round ball.
I am looking forward to this role as I am not often entrusted with such a role.
However, I fear that there may be a lot of explanatory lines because he is a smart character!
I want to avoid that somehow (laughs).
With that in mind, I hope you will all support me!

Tomokazu Sugita (playing the role of Apocalypse) comment
Hello everyone...hello. It may be up to you all to decide whether to apocalypse this world or be apocalypse.
If you find a three-dimensional object of Apocalypse at the event, why don't you take a picture with it? Best regards.
