Before diving into the full details, take a moment to enjoy these captivating visuals from the upcoming production:
About the Production: A Tale of Growing Acclaim
This heartwarming work is an original creation by Suehara Takuma, the mastermind behind the theater troupe Obonro. It first premiered as an Obonro main stage performance in 2021, followed by a successful rerun in August 2022. The narrative also found its way into print with a book published by Kodansha, before being reimagined and expanded as a reading play in 2023. Both the initial run and the rerun sold out instantly, a testament to its captivating charm. With each performance, the audience’s emotional response grew, leading to this year’s staging at Hulic Hall Tokyo, the largest venue yet for this beloved production.
An All-Star Voice Cast Takes the Stage
Fans will be thrilled to see Satou Takuya, Nishiyama Koutarou, and Shimono Hiro reprise their roles from previous performances. Joining them for this grand spectacle is an impressive lineup of talented voice actors: Takagi Wataru, Yamashita Daiki, Nagatsuka Takuma, Hatanaka Yuuki, Okamoto Nobuhiko, Koizumi Moeka, and Morohoshi Sumire, ensuring an unforgettable experience for all attendees.
Exclusive After-Talk and Merchandise Unveiled!
Adding to the excitement, an exclusive after-talk session will be held after each performance, featuring Suehara Takuma, the scriptwriter and director, along with members of the cast. Even those watching via live stream will be able to enjoy these engaging discussions.
But that’s not all! The highly anticipated merchandise lineup for this performance has also been revealed. In addition to goods featuring original illustrations by Suehara Takuma, fans can look forward to a special pamphlet and visual card sets, which proudly display character visuals featuring the esteemed cast – a long-awaited treat for many!
Live streaming tickets are set to go on sale starting October 17th (Friday). If traveling to the theater isn’t an option for you, don’t miss this fantastic opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of “Roudoku Ryuzutan” from the comfort of your home!
