The main cast & staff have lifted the ban & comments have arrived!
This time, the 3 main cast members have also been lifted. Taito Saka is played by the main character, Kodo Iwamoto, who has “recommended” many “skilled persons” to the school and is strongly admired by his juniors.
Kento Ito plays Soichiro Amaha, a junior who is a student of the academy and is a student of the school, but is a student of the school who is a student of the school, but is a student of the school who is not going to school, but is cared for by Iwamoto.
Kodo Iwamoto: Taito Saka

[Iwamoto Kodo: Commentary by Taito Saka]
“Iwamoto Kodo”, which I will perform this time, is a third-year student at the Army Seiho Junior High School where people with special power gather.
His mission, and the basis of his story, is to find out for the purpose of protecting the talented people who exist all over the country and hand over the letter of recommendation to the Army Seiho Junior High School.
Iwamoto is a very calm and compassionate person and is loved by many juniors, but he himself is still a junior high school student. It will grow in the story, suffering, suffering, conflict. I hope that you will pay attention to his side of such a very “human”.
A gorgeous but somewhat ephemeral story woven by many attractive characters. Please look forward to it!
Haramachi Sea role: Yuki Sakakibara

[Haramachi Sea role: Yuki Sakakibara comment]
Hello everyone. I’m Yuki Sakakibara, who will play Haramachi Umi-kun.
When I read the original, I felt a strong charm in the unique world view created by the beautiful drawings that made me feel the atmosphere of those days, and the narrative, which has an atmosphere that makes me feel as if I am reading a memoir or report.
It’s a great honor to be given the opportunity to express such a unique world.
It’s a wonderful work, so please look forward to it!
Soichiro Amaha role: Kento Ito

[Soichiro Amaha: Kento Ito’s comment]
I think that this work has a tremendous texture through the work, such as how to spin pictures and spin words, and I think that it is a work that can experience the best of high-quality manga.
The story is also a theme that sticks to us who live in the present, even though the historical background is in the past, and each character is very attractive. I can’t help but read the details of each frame.
Many of you may be wondering how the ability of the talented users to develop the animation and how the flowers and flames will be produced. I am also very much looking forward to it. I’m sure it will be a wonderful animation thanks to the power of many staff members.
And the staff has also been lifted. Directed by Toshifumi Kawase, Keiichiro Ochi as the series composition, Atsuko Nakajima as character design, Takuya Taira as sound director,
The music is played by Yoshiaki Dewa and Toru Ishizuka, and the animation production is Studio Dean. As a representative, director Toshifumi Kawase, series composition Keiichiro Ochi, and character designer Atsuko Nakajima has also arrived!
[Director: Toshifumi Kawase Comment]
The most difficult part of making “Iwamoto Senpai no Recommended” animated was how to express the characters and their abilities as images. The destiny that was carried on its back because of its ability is a fleeting but sad story. That’s why I wanted to express it beautifully and beautifully.
Among them, the most difficult part was the expression of the main character, Kodo Iwamoto’s “Cremoured Cary”.
How will that power save the characters who have undesired destiny?
I hope you enjoy watching it.
[Series composition: Keiichiro Daichi’s comment]
Congratulations on making “Iwamoto-senpai no recommended” animation.
This work is full of attractive male characters.
The beautiful yet humorous, sometimes cruel
Even so, hope is not lost… Please enjoy the story!
[Character design: Atsuko Nakajima comment]
The characters in “Recommended Iwamoto Senpai” are all characters with strong quirks, and their special abilities are unique, and they are all good-looking guys.
Among them, Iwamoto-senpai is too kind to the ability person. The activities of the juniors who admire him are also a highlight.
There is a battle between painfully beautiful characters who have been hurt in the heart. . There is also a sad story.
I think it’s a work that you can enjoy and see.
Thank you
