Kaya-chan CV: Ansaki Tachibana

A year old school attending Hanamugi Kindergarten. It is often regarded as a problem child who causes trouble in the park, but no one knows that it is because of Kaya’s psychic powers. She’s very strong when dealing with monsters, but she’s a 5-year-old girl.

Mr. Chie CV: Maaya Uchida

A teacher who takes charge of classes at Hanamugi Kindergarten all year round. He is kind and serious, and has enough power to throw a suspicious person away. However, since he does not have psychic powers, he cannot fight against monsters. While he is the one who understands Kaya the most, he is also the person who is swayed the most.

Official comments have arrived from the two main characters.

Kaya-chan role: Ansaki Tachibana

“Kaya-chan is not scary” is a work with an interesting and mysterious charm that makes you feel scared but can’t stop turning pages for some reason. I’m already a fan of Kayakowa because I’m scared of the world view, where the individuality of each character shines and the sense of humor and tension is exquisitely intertwined. Even those who are not good at horror are sure to be drawn into the charm of the characters and the profound interest of the story! We hope that you will be looking forward to the anime broadcast!

Chie-sensei: Maaya Uchida

It is a work that will be healed by everyone in the cute kindergarten, will be surprised by the strangeness, will be healed by Kaya-chan, and will grab your heart!
It’s not just scary, it’s a very interesting and enjoyable work, and above all, each character is unique and interesting! !
Please look forward to the broadcast!
Kayakowa, please! ! !
