Tessia is an enslaved elf girl who crosses paths with protagonist Arthur, voiced by Natsumi Fujiwara, while Jasmine is a skilled Augmenter and a former comrade of Arthur’s parents.
Kana Ichinose shared the following comment:
Hello, I’m Kana Ichinose, and I will be playing Tessia.
Tessia is a lively and innocent girl, full of childlike charm. She’s very honest with her emotions, so I approached the role with a straightforward and honest performance.
The recording sessions were also incredibly fun, with a warm and friendly atmosphere.
With the broadcast starting in April, it will be here before we know it! I hope you’re all excited to watch!
Chiaki Omigawa shared the following comment:
From the moment I auditioned, I thought, “she’s so adorable!” — so I’m incredibly happy to be playing Jasmine.
I poured my heart into bringing out her sincerity and unwavering dedication, hoping that these feelings will reach all of you.
There’s still some time until the broadcast, but please look forward to it! Until then, be sure to brush up on the original story!♡
