Additional cast members for the second season of the TV anime "Isura," based on the popular light novel from Dengeki Shinbungei (KADOKAWA), have been announced, including Ono Kensho, Inoue Kikuko, Midorikawa Hikaru, and Ono Atsushi. Ono will play the strongest hero of Yellow City, Absolute Roscray; Inoue will play Winter Ruknoka, the legendary dragon that lives in the Igania ice lake; Midorikawa will play Mujin Muryu Saianop, a slime martial artist with a shape-shifting body structure; and Ono will play Neft of the Other Shore, the legendary wolf demon (Lycant). Ono commented, "Everyone is the strongest, everyone is a hero. Just the setting was exciting, and when I heard the character I'd be playing, I was even more fired up. I'm very honored to be able to play such a challenging character. I'll do my best to express what's hidden behind his absolute strength." Inoue said, "Winter Rukunoka is a beautiful legendary dragon! He is white, cold, and has overwhelming power, but he is actually quite an old lady. I hope you enjoy the gap between his appearance and his personality... he will freeze the entire landscape and bring winter to the world, so please look forward to it!"
Midorikawa commented, "It's finally here! Actually, about seven years ago, I started seeing more and more posts on the internet recommending my voice for a character called Cyanop. I started to get interested in him because I saw it so often, so I searched for what kind of character he was, and I remember being surprised because it wasn't a human (laughs). I never thought the day would come when I would actually play him. It's really moving. But he's such a fascinating character. Anyway, I can't wait to see him in action! I wonder what kind of movements he makes when fighting?? I'm already a total fan. If you support Cyanop a lot, I think there will be a lot of goods, so please support him."
Ono said, "This work is filled with a wide variety of characters, and each one is endlessly entertaining, but Higan's Neft is an extremely elderly character. I'm really looking forward to seeing how his skilled skills and speed that transcend his age are portrayed in the video."
