Marina Inoue (Kazura)
“This original anime is packed with dense lore, and we often find ourselves cross-referencing glossaries in the booth. Kazura supports others in battle but is also often caught off guard by Takeru’s wild nature. I hope you enjoy watching Takeru's journey as he unravels the mysteries around him.”
