The broadcast of the brand new anime Shōmetsu Toshi will start in April. To celebrate, the anime had its own special event held on the KILLER PINK stage at Anime Japan 2019. The anime convention was held on Sunday 24th March.

As the opening theme song started to play, five of the anime voice actors and actresses Kana Hanazawa (Yuki), Tomokazu Sugita (Takuya), Ayaka Asai (Souma), Taisuke Nishimura (Geek) and Ayane Sakura (Suzuna) took to the stage. When special guest Yuichi Nakamura (Akira) joined the stage, the audience erupted into cheers.

First, the voice actors and actresses introduced the anime and talked about the characters of Shōmetsu Toshi. The audience experienced hearing the story of the anime from the characters’ perspectives. As it has been five years since the release of the game which then turned into this anime, Kana Hanazawa (Yuki) then presented her tough fight to make post voice recordings for the voice of Yuki again for the earlier part of the story.

 

They also showed the audience the latest anime trailer, to which the venue drowned in the applause.
