Saori Onishi's comment (as the White Queen)

I will be playing the role of the White Queen in "Date A Bullet," a spin-off of the historic "Date A Live" series. I will play the role with great care so that everyone will feel a sense of discomfort in a good way, while respecting the world view.

Kaede Hondo's comment (as Hibiki Hiki)

My name is Kaede Hondo, and I will be playing the role of Hibiki Hiki. Hibiki is a very optimistic girl who I never get tired of watching. In the main part, she is stirring up Kyozo and the others! Please watch the first part and even the second part and be amazed! Hondo is a man.......!

Comment from Mariya Ise (Aoi)

I will be playing the role of "Ao", a girl who loves to fight and is also known as a cookie smasher. I am looking forward to seeing how she will fight with Kyozo. Please look forward to it!

Comment from Rina Hidaka (Pannier Ibusuki)

I was very excited to read the script, wondering how the characters would fight, who is targeting who, what they want... I myself was very nervous as I read through the script. I enjoyed playing the voice of Pannier Ibusuki, who showed me a variety of expressions. This is a spin-off of "Date A Live," which has been loved by many people for a long time, and I hope it will live up to your expectations. Please look forward to it!

Comment from Asami Seto (as Yui Sagaruri)

I will be voicing the role of Yui Sagaruri. My name is Asami Seto. At the time of writing this comment, I am still looking forward to seeing how Yui Sagahori will be portrayed in the story. I will try my best to bring out the best of her in the recording.

Natsumi Fujiwara's comment (as Isami Hijikata)

Congratulations on the anime adaptation! I am very happy to be a part of it. It's nice to see girls fighting each other, isn't it? I am looking forward to seeing what kind of battles await us in the future! I hope I can get into a lot of trouble! I am nervous, but I will enjoy the challenge! Thank you very much for your cooperation!
