Kana Hanazawa Voices Taiwanese Mall's Mascot

The official website for Taiwan's Taipei City Mall revealed on Thursday that Japanese voice actress Kana Hanazawa (Guilty Crown, Nisemonogatari, Haganai) is voicing the mall's mascot character.

Hanazawa portrays a 12-year-old girl named Rion in the mall's promotional campaigns. The character is somewhat shy, and her hobby is collecting teru teru bōzu hand-made dolls. The small white dolls, said to bring good weather, also appear with Rion in advertisements.

Taipei City Mall began streaming a 72-second Rion self-introduction video on Tuesday.
