Kengo Kawanishi as Gunha Shuita

Congratulations on the Toaru Kagaku no Railgun T anime adaptation! I will be playing the role of "Shuita Gunha" from this work. I have known the work itself for a long time, so I am very happy to be able to participate in such a long-lasting work. I hope that fans of the original work will look forward to seeing how he will be involved in the future.

■Miyu Tomita as Inspector Keisaku

I have been watching "A Certain Series" since I was in elementary school and reading the original with my friends, so when it was decided that I could play the role, I was like, "A dream, huh? When I was asked to play a role in the series, I was like, "Dream, huh? I am very happy to be able to be a part of such a historic work, and I am looking forward to the on-air performance! I will do my best to convey the charm of Gandori to everyone!

Yukiyo Fujii as Seria Kumogawa, a bare-assed cutie

Seria Kumogawa in "Toaru Kagaku no Railgun" makes an unexpected appearance, but in "Toaru Majutsu no Index" where her personal life is depicted, she hasn't been voiced yet, so this was her first recording... I was actually very nervous about it. The cast and the staff were all in a friendly atmosphere, and it was a great combination! I am happy to be involved in a work that has been loved for many years! And I'm looking forward to the sequel of "Index of Forbidden Books" as well...I'll be waiting for it with great anticipation!

Blu-ray & DVD will be released!

It has also been decided that a Blu-ray & DVD of this work will be released. The Blu-ray and DVD will include a novel newly written by the original author, a digipak newly drawn by the anime, a bonus CD, and other luxurious extras.
