The highly anticipated anime adaptation of Kotobukiya's Arcanadea franchise has just released its early "super teaser promotional video" this Tuesday. Fans can rejoice as Kaede Hondo will continue to lend her voice to the beloved character Lumitea.
A Look Back and Forward
Hondo originally voiced Lumitea in the short video version of the franchise's four-panel manga, YuruCanadea (also known as YuruCana). Her comments about reprising the role reveal her genuine connection to the character:
"I've always felt like I was building up Lumitea's charm together with the creators, so I'm truly happy to continue playing her. It might be a coincidence, but it feels like we share a love for the same ramen or seasonings! I'd like to cherish this connection in the future."
