Casting release PV

Mush Burned (CV. Chiaki Kobayashi)
A rare boy who cannot use magic. He is a rare boy who cannot use magic. He can crush all magic with his well-trained muscle power, but he is not familiar with common sense and tends to make mistakes.
He loves cream puffs.

<Cast Comments
I have enjoyed the original story as a reader for a long time, so I was really happy when I heard that I passed the audition.
I will try to be able to make delicious cream puffs.
Mash's facial expression doesn't change much and at first glance it looks as if he doesn't know what he is thinking, but inside he is a straight and gentle boy who is very considerate of his friends and family.
Because he is such a kind and gentle boy, I think he will be able to deliver words that will resonate straight to the hearts of both friend and foe alike, so I am looking forward to the recording sessions.
I am really looking forward to the postrecording. This work is loved by many people, and I am a fan of the work myself, so I will do my best so that you can enjoy it. I look forward to working with you!

Finn Ames (CV: Reiji Kawashima)
A boy who shares a room with Mash in the dormitory. He is also Mash's first friend.

＜Cast comments
I'm so excited to be a part of this!
I screamed in shock when the manager told me, through a mixture of feints, that I had been cast as Finn.
At that moment, I realized. I felt Finn in the exchange, thinking, "Oh, perhaps when Finn is surprised at Mash and the other unique characters, he makes such a clean, crisp sound and comes out with such a sharp, clean, and clean response. ......
In the recording, I was in sync with Finn, thinking, "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I will try to be in sync with Finn while thinking, 'Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Please look forward to it!

Lance Crown (CV: Kaito Ishikawa)
He is a handsome man who ranked first in the transfer examination. He has considerable magical power and top class academic performance.

<Cast comment> "I am very honored to play the role of Lance.
My name is Kaito Ishikawa, and I will be playing the role of Lance.
I was very happy when I heard that I would be playing the role of Lance, a man of high aspirations and deep love. In this world where magic is the name of the game, I can't stop being excited to be a part of the team that overcomes the stormy seas and paves the way together with Mash.
I will do my best to express the feelings hidden within this calm and capable character!

Dot Barrett (CV. Takuya Eguchi)
Dot is an intuitive and boisterous boy. He is not the popular type and has a strong hatred for good-looking guys.

<Cast Comments
I'm looking forward to seeing how the tempo of the gags in the original work and the poignancy of Mash will be expressed in the anime!
The character I play, Dot, also has great comedic elements, so I hope to enjoy playing him.
Of course, he also has a cool side, so I will do my best to show the gap between the two!

Lemon Irving (CV. Rena Ueda)
She has been in love with Mash ever since he saved her during the entrance exam. She is a type of person who has a lot of assumptions.

＜Cast comments
This is a work that gives me a lot of energy while sucking me in with its indescribable looseness.
Lemon-chan is the best. ...... I love the fact that she always has her engine running at full throttle.
It is so refreshing to see her going straight ahead at an angle.
Please look forward to seeing how she will play an active role and how Mash-kun and other unique characters will be portrayed.
We look forward to your continued support for the "Mashle - MASHLE" anime!
