<Cast Comments

Inori Minase (playing the role of Somali)

Somali is an innocent and straightforward girl who purifies my heart every time I play her.
The mysterious silhouettes of Otou-san and Somali become more and more endearing, and sometimes I am surprised by the development that grabs my heart. I will do my best to play the role without losing the charm of Somali.

Daisuke Ono (Golem)

This is a very warm and gentle work that makes you feel the time of eternity. I hope I can weave a peaceful time as I surrender myself to the world of the work.
