CAST & COMMENTS:

Comment from Satoshi Inomata (Voice of Koji Kagami):
I’m Satoshi Inomata, and I’ll be playing the role of Kouji Kagami! After reading the original work, my first impression was that it made me think, “What exactly is ‘normal’?” Kagami is a laid-back person, but just as the title says, he’s the “The Villager of LV999”, so of course, he’s incredibly strong. Why did a villager become so powerful and how will his story unfold after meeting Alice from the demon race? Please watch and witness how they are going to confront various hardships and realities!

Comment from Nao Tōyama (Voice of Alice):
I’m Nao Tōyama, and I’ll be playing the role of Alice! While she’s a girl from the demon race—the enemies of humans—she is truly, truly like an angel! Alice’s earnestness, innocence, and charm make my heart flutter as I play her; it feels like my heart is being cleansed. I hope to fully connect with Alice’s unwavering beliefs and live alongside her in this world! Please look forward to this fantasy story with its mysterious and unfolding plot!
