The MC, comedy duo Nasunanakanashi, called on Masaaki Mizunaka, who plays the role of Teishakuten, to appear first. Mr. Mizunaka himself performed the OP theme song "Sora Uta," sung by Teishakuten, on stage.

Mr. Mizunaka's beautiful singing voice echoed through the hall as the audience clapped their hands.

After the live performance, Tak Yashiro, who plays the role of Jizo Bosatsu, took the stage to talk about the work.

When asked by the MC about the characters, Mr. Mizunaka replied, "Teishakuten is a hot and serious character in the game, but in the anime he is too hot and has a natural character. He also likes sweet food, which is a nice contrast to his appearance.

Mr. Yashiro introduced Jizo Bosatsu as a character with a serious side who always says, "It's a pain in the ass," but does what needs to be done in the end, despite what he says.

The latest PV, which was unveiled at AnimeJapan 2019, was then shown! Mr. Mizunaka and Ms. Yashiro again commented, "It's so cool! and again, their impressions jumped out. They said that there were many scenes that fans would be interested in, such as the laundry and bath scenes.

Next up was "Namuami! Dice Talk! The dice were rolled and the two answered questions about the characters whose rolls came up.

The question related to Kannon Bosatsu was "There are many household chores such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc. Do you have any particular chores that you are particular about? Ms. Yashiro answered, "I don't cook at all. I don't cook at all, but I do a lot of cleaning. I always do it while listening to Maximum the Hormone.

In addition, to a question related to Jizo Bosatsu, "Where is a spot you would like to visit or are interested in?" Mr. Mizunaka answered, "Kyoto. Kyoto. I was not interested in sightseeing spots when I was a child, but now that I am an adult, I want to go there again.

As the talk came to an end, the two were asked about their enthusiasm for the film. Mr. Mizunaka commented, "It's a wonderful film, so please watch it to the end. Mr. Yashiro said, "All the actors are having fun while working on the film. I think it will be an interesting work with a good sense of chaos, so please enjoy it.

Purify your vexations.
Fight against vexations to save people! The slapstick communal life of the Buddha who descended to this world!

Teishakuten and Brahma descended to this world on a mission from the Buddha Shakyamuni. Their mission was to protect people from Mara, the incarnation of vexation! They begin to live together with the thirteen Buddhas led by Sakyamuni Buddha at the Bonno-ji Temple. Whenever they see each other, they are constantly at odds with each other. An "incident" in the past has caused a great rift between them. Teishakuten and Brahma, the two great protective deities, struggle to save people from their troubles. The story of Asura, who is going his own way, begins now!
