Atsumi Tanezaki, Known for Frieren, to Voice Young Albert

Atsumi Tanezaki, best known for her role as Frieren, will voice young Albert in Orb: On the Movements of the Earth.

Tanezaki will portray Albert’s childhood in Episode 24, while Shoya Ishige, who debuted as the young baker in Episode 23, continues as his adult counterpart.

Speaking about the original work, Tanezaki shared:
"It felt like my mind was expanding into the universe, filling me with excitement and warmth."

She also left a heartfelt message for fans:
"The TV anime Chi is approaching its finale. I would be delighted if you could watch it together with us."

About Orb: On the Movements of the Earth

Orb: On the Movements of the Earth is based on the manga of the same name by Uoto, serialized in Big Spirits Comics (published by Shogakukan). It is a highly acclaimed work, having won the Grand Prize at the 26th Tezuka Osamu Cultural Awards.

Set in 15th-century Europe, during a time when heretical ideas were punished by burning at the stake, the story follows those who risk their beliefs and lives to prove the heliocentric theory, which challenged the dominant geocentric worldview.

The prodigy Rafał is expected to major in theology, but one day, a mysterious man researching a "heretical truth" appears before him.
