Q:How did you feel when you found out you had been cast in Anne Shirley?

I was genuinely happy to be able to be involved with a work adapted from a famous novel like Anne of Green Gables.
When I first found out, I thought, “This work is definitely going to be special for me.” I felt motivated to do my best.

Q:What were your impressions after recording the first episode?

Gilbert makes his appearance later in the series, but I could keenly sense that the others were putting a lot of detail into their performances, and that made me even more enthusiastic.
I’m looking forward to making this series with everyone!

Q:What was it like in the recording studio?

There was obviously a sense of tension, but it was very peaceful, and I could feel that everyone, including the staff, was working to support one another. Everyone was genuinely really nice!!!

Q:What would you like to say to the viewers?

It’s a series where, every episode, the characters will say something that really gets your attention. From things you only notice now that you’re an adult, to things that can be sensed with youthful innocence. There’s a lot packed in there! I hope you’ll watch it!
