Atsumi Tanezaki (Kurihara Kiho)
I want to cry, but I also want to run. I still can't forget the feeling I had when I first came into contact with the "wonderful world. I can't tell you how much Inio Asano's works have shaken my heart.
I hope that the animated film "Dedede" will also bring you something like that impulse.
Please look forward to its release!

Miyuri Shimabukuro (Ai Demoto)
When I started reading the original work for the audition, I was instantly attracted to the unique atmosphere of the work and became captivated by it.
I believe that the fun of "Dedede" lies in its inability to be expressed in words, so I hope you will come to the theater and experience it for yourself.

Sakieko Ohki (Rin Hirama)
I am very happy to be able to be involved in "Dedede" this time!
The world of "Dedede Dedede" is carefully created one by one, and it makes my heart warm, or on the contrary, it makes my heart throb.
I can't wait for everyone to see this world!
Please pay attention to Rin's cool but mischievous side!

Azumi Waki (Playing the role of Futaba Takemoto)
It is nice to meet you! I have the honor of playing the role of Futaba-chan.
I am very happy to be able to participate as Futaba in the anime based on Asano-sensei's soft but unforgettable illustrations with his distinctive touch.
I hope you will pay attention to her realistic adolescence with her friends, and the worries and conflicts she faces because she is at her age!

Ryoko Shiraishi (Playing the role of Makoto Tainuma)
All of the characters have their own unique personalities, but I enjoy playing the role of Makoto, who is very expressive, natural, and cute, and who easily blends in with the people around her and is both patient and understanding!
The characters in the anime are also a joy to watch, as they live their lives according to their own justice, while being troubled by their own problems!

Miyu Irino (Keita Ooba)
This is the first anime adaptation of my favorite author, Inio Asano! I definitely want to participate!
First of all, I want to be allowed to audition somehow! First of all, I was very excited about auditioning for the role of Keita Ooba.
I could feel the staff's and Mr. Asano's strong commitment to the project.
I have a feeling that it will be a great production.
The other day, when I met Mr. Inio Asano for the first time, I became just a fan.

Akiteru Uchiyama (Actor: Kenichi Kohyamaki)
I am honored to be able to cooperate in the creation of this challenging work.
Kenichi Obirimaki, whom I voice, is an ordinary high school student who is easily influenced by the words and actions of his favorite musician.
I am very much looking forward to seeing how the original manga will turn into an anime, and I am also looking forward to the completion of the work.

■Taido Saka (Watarase)
In Japan, where the extraordinary has become the ordinary, girls who are about to become adults from children are slowly caught up in the destruction of the world.
I feel that this is a work that makes me feel somewhat inspired by the real world.
I will be playing the role of Watarase, a teacher at the high school where the main characters attend.
He is a downer teacher who is a little older than the main characters. He is very attractive, isn't he?
I hope you will enjoy the world view created by Mr. Inio Asano!

Junichi Suwabe (as Hiroshi Nakagawa)
I have tweeted on SNS in the past that I would like to appear in the anime when it comes out, but I never thought it would happen! I am grateful for the opportunity.
I will do my best to express the subtleties of Hiroshi as the quirky yet charming older brother.

Kenjiro Tsuda (as Nobuo Koyama)
I am happy to be able to live the unique world, the floating words, and the characters created by Mr. Inio Asano.
I hope many people will watch the play. Thank you very much for your kind attention.
