The anime will be produced by Studio KAI, and will feature Aoi Koga as Takayoshi Canaan and Seiichiro Yamashita as Kugi Yoji.
*Comment from Sayumi Suzushiro, who plays Jeanne
I'm Sayumi Suzushiro, and I'll be playing the role of Jeanne! No matter how depressed I feel, reading this work will make me laugh. It's a work full of energy, and it's fun to watch the interactions between the characters, each with their own quirks...or rather, their own unique personalities...! While reading the original work, I knew that dubbing would be a blast, so I was very happy when I found out I'd be involved!! Who exactly is Jeanne, who is entangled in the irresistible relationship between Canaan and Kuiki...?!! Please keep an eye on the various sides of Jeanne★ I'm going to break through and have a blast with everyone!! Please look forward to the broadcast!
※ Maki Kawase, who plays Ami, also commented
I'm Maki Kawase, and I'll be voicing Ami. Ami-chan is a gyaru maid! During the recording, I was told in each episode, "Please let Ami be herself," and she was able to voice it freely and happily, saying and shouting words that she doesn't usually get a chance to say... Ami-chan will always be watching over the young lady (Canan) and the others with warmth! Please look forward to the broadcast and Ami-chan's appearance!
※Comment from Ayaka Nanase, who plays Nadeshiko Masurao
I'm Ayaka Nanase, and I'll be playing the role of Masurao Nadeshiko. The highlight of the show is that all the characters have very strong personalities! I think that's the point (lol). What kind of girl is Nadeshiko?! The story, which moves forward at a good pace thanks to the chemical reactions between the characters' personalities, is refreshing and interesting! The atmosphere on set was very friendly with both the staff and cast, and I was able to be completely open! (?) Please look forward to the anime "Kanan-sama wa Akumade Choroi" ♪
*Comment from Fuka Izumi, who plays Mirch Zebul
I'm Fuka Izumi, and I'll be playing the role of Milch! Cute girls! A boundlessly cheerful and kind Kugi-kun! A surprisingly (?!) pure love story!!! There was constant laughter during the dubbing, and it's a really fun and uplifting show to watch! Meanwhile, Milch is a "brat". This is my first experience playing a "brat". I'll do my best to make the cute Milch a "brat" that everyone will love, even with the voice added! Thank you! Right, Pig-san
*Comment from Hikaru Tono, who plays Miel Zebul
I'm Hikaru Tono, and I'll be playing the role of Miel. According to her cute and easygoing older sister Canaan, she's the "kind and quiet" youngest sister. She doesn't have any secrets or get excited about anything... I'm sure! ! Since the audition, I've been acting freely, sometimes with the feeling of challenging myself in new areas...! I hope you'll also pay attention to the Zebul family, all of whom have a deep love for Canaan. I'll be waiting for you in the demon world!
*Comment from Yoshino Nanjo, who plays Lilim Zebul
I will be playing the role of Kanan's mother! There are many crazy and thrilling scenes in "Kanachoro," but I hope you will enjoy the adorable Kanan while laughing and sometimes feeling touched. I also love how Kugi is a pervert, yet exudes a good-natured youthfulness (lol).
