Cast Comments

Dara-san: Mutsumi Tamura

■Character Introduction
Dara-san, whose true name is Yamatagi Madara, is a cursed deity with a half human, half serpent body and six arms. Despite the terrifying appearance, the character is gentle and rational, and has adapted to modern civilization. Dara-san calls themself a dignified local guardian deity, though in truth they are a little lonely.

■Cast Comment
When I first read Dara-san, I thought it was an incredibly dynamic story. There are serious developments that make you want to know what happens next, and Dara-san has a truly tragic past, which was painful to read about. But I was really happy to see how Dara-san was saved by the siblings in the modern era storyline. The modern day parts are filled with unique characters and very funny moments that make you chuckle. I hope many people will watch this series. Please discover the charm of Dara-san.

Hinata Misogiya: Minami Tsuda

■Character Introduction
Hinata Misogiya is a member of the Misogiya family, which serves as guardians of the mountain where Yamatagi Madara is enshrined. A second year middle school student who commutes by bicycle, Hinata has a sporty appearance but actually prefers to relax and be lazy whenever possible. Hinata also possesses extremely strong spiritual sensitivity.

■Cast Comment
I am Minami Tsuda, the voice of Hinata Misogiya. Dara-san of Reiwa is a chaotic mix of Reiwa era horror and slapstick comedy. Hinata is not a character who feels particularly scary, so I hope even people who dislike horror will give it a try. I cannot go into haunted houses either. In the Reiwa era, it is all about Dara-san.

Kaoru Misogiya: Momoka Terasawa

■Character Introduction
Kaoru Misogiya is also a member of the Misogiya family that guards the mountain where Yamatagi Madara is worshipped. A fifth grade elementary school student attending a local school, Kaoru has striking blond hair and blue eyes and appears quiet at first glance. However, Kaoru actually has a very energetic personality and possesses exceptional drawing skills.

■Cast Comment
I am Momoka Terasawa, and I will be playing Kaoru Misogiya. Kaoru is a character who constantly does the opposite of what you expect, which surprised me in a good way. The greatest appeal of this work is the huge contrast between the comedy scenes and the serious parts. There are many incredibly unique characters appearing throughout the story. Please look forward to it.

Narration: Masaki Terasoma

■Cast Comment
I will be handling the narration for both the past and present portions of the story. This work is very interesting and engaging, so I hope to guide viewers into the world of the story smoothly through my narration. Please look forward to it.

Comment from Kei Fubuki
Nice to meet you. I am Kei Fubuki, and I will be collaborating with the television anime Dara-san of Reiwa. When I received the offer and read the original manga, the alternating waves of fear and humor completely drew me into Dara-san’s world. Please look forward to the charming and amusing world of Dara-san.
