Chun (CV: Daisuke Sakuma)

The mascot character of the guidebook “Chun Guide” that sparrows have.
In various situations, sparrows explain (guide) what they eat and trivial knowledge.

<Comments from Daisuke Sakuma>

I’m Daisuke Sakuma, who will be in charge of Chun’s voice.
Chun is a sparrow who explains a lot of origin and explanation of food.
From the time of the audition, I thought a lot about how to express Chun and acted.
You can meet a lot of delicious food and learn a lot! And above all, the “happy face” when eating rice is so cute that it can’t be helped!
Please be hungry and have fun! Chun!

■ Introduction
Sparrows, who work as maids in a British mansion, start a new life in a small apartment in a corner of Japan due to an event.
Living alone in Japan for the first time, I have a lot to worry about, but sparrows are very interested in Japanese food. When you run out of your apartment, you can also meet various foods and people.
I’m just watching you eat.
That makes me so happy!
The heartwarming everyday animation sent by an extraordinary maid begins! !
