Shin (cv: Kensho Ono)

Shin (cv: Kensho Ono) is an old player of "THE NEW GATE" and an absolute champion of online games.
He tries to log out of the game world where he is trapped by defeating the last boss "Origin," but he is transported to the world of "THE NEW GATE" 500 years later, and sets off on a new adventure to find a way to return to the real world.
He has advanced combat skills and knowledge of games, and has mastered the art of blacksmithing. He is a bit of an obsessive person, and when he gets carried away, he uses materials and time like hot water.

Kensho Ono Comment

Q. What is your impression of the game and what attracts you to the character you play?
The story begins with the player trying to clear the game in order to return to the real world, but after clearing the game, he is transported to 500 years later in the game world, which really caught my attention.
Why can't I go back to the real world? And why 500 years later? There are too many points of interest!
And Shin, the character I play, is just the strongest! I am attracted to the fact that he is not only the strongest but also has the kindness to extend his hand to anyone without being conceited.
Please look forward to the broadcast!

Schnee Reiser (cv: Asami Seto)

A support character for Shin during the game era, her race is High Elf. She was the acting owner of the "Shrine of the Moon" during Shin's absence.
She is as skilled in combat as Shin, and her good looks, which were set when she was created, make her the center of attention.
She was much sought after both as a woman and as a force to be reckoned with, but she has been waiting for 500 years for Shin, to whom she owes her loyalty.

■Masami Seto Comment

Q. Could you tell us your impression of this film and the appeal of the character you play?
There is something about Shin! He is transported across 500 years of time to a realistic world that looks exactly like the world that was supposed to be a game, but what is the reason for that.... It will be interesting to see if the mystery will gradually unravel as he reunites with his former friends.
I got the impression that Schnee is a beautiful and strong being with strong fighting skills, and I was attracted to her loyal and classy stand. She cooks for everyone and is very kind in the way she looks after everyone and the way she looks at them, so I hope I can bring that kind of charm to her voice.

Tierra Lucent (cv: Kaede Hondo)

An elf with black hair, a symbol of bad luck, due to a powerful curse. She is feared by the elves and was banished from her hometown when she was rescued by Schnee.
He now lives as a clerk at the Shrine of the Moon and as Schnee's apprentice.
Shin's extraordinary fighting abilities and many items and skills lost in ancient times astonish him in his daily life.

Kaede Hondo Comment

Q. Could you tell us about your impression of this work and the appeal of the character you play?
My name is Kaede Motowatari and I will be playing the role of Tierra!
This work is set in the online game "THE NEW GATE," and there are many exciting aspects about Shin's position in the game world and how it differs from the real world, making the recording sessions a lot of fun.
Tierra is a resident of the game world, an elf who works as a store keeper at the "Shrine of the Moon". She is a sensible and solid person, but she has a certain problem. What happens when she meets Shin? The main character, Shin, is also a kind-hearted and wonderful person, so please look forward to the broadcast! Best regards.
