◇Full text of Yuki Kaji's comment
I am pleased to announce the founding of a new company, "FRACTAL," which aims to turn imagination into reality. Our company symbol is derived from the design of the Ulysses butterfly (a lucky butterfly), the symbol of the voice AI project, "Soyogi Fractal." Just as a butterfly uses its antennae to read the wind and determine its course, we too want to be an entity that constantly grasps the changes of the times and moves forward with new ideas. Furthermore, we hope that "FRACTAL" will become a safe and secure home for everyone, and that the works born from it will spread their wings and soar to the world with great charm. These are the wishes that we have put into our company name and logo. Aiming to create a form of creativity that only I can create, as a voice actor and CEO, I will continue to pursue expressions that resonate with everyone's hearts. I am still young and inexperienced, but I would appreciate your continued guidance and encouragement. Please warmly watch over our efforts in the voice AI business centered on "Soyogi Fractal," and the new challenge of voice actor Yuki Kaji.
