Cast comments

Mitsuhiro Ichirai as Kaito Jin
I was born in Kagoshima, but I grew up in Tokyo.
The Tokai region is a new place for me, so like Kaito, I would like to experience a different world from Tokyo that I do not know through this work!
And hopefully, I will be able to try some of the local delicacies in the program...

Nisako Tojo as Shigeka Jin
My name is Nisako Tojo, and I will be playing the role of Shigeka-chan.
The more I read about the three Tokai prefectures, the more I love them. I would like to experience the unknown world of the local area with Shigeka-chan and be pushed around by Yajukame-chan with all my might.
I look forward to working with you!
