Syoya Kimata (from JO1)
When I played Shinji, I felt that he was a character that I could relate personally and felt close to him, as a person! This was my first time recording a voice for an anime movie, so I was really nervous, but that’s why I have a lot of feelings for him!
I learned a lot through this work, and I had fun growing up!!
I read the novel and acted in it, and it turned out to be a wonderful piece, and I’m looking forward to seeing it completed!
Everyone, please enjoy watching it!
“Trapezium” is a wonderful novel by Takayama-san.
Mitsuyoshi Uchimura
This is an exquisite blend of her personality, love of family, love of hometown, friendship, and a little bit of venom.
It is a story that would not have been possible if she had not been a member of Nogizaka.
That work has finally been made into an anime.
This time, everyone, please enjoy Kazumi Takayama’s world view on the big screen!
