Gonzo's Latest InuHasa Anime Promo Reveals New Cast Members
posted on by Egan Loo
The official website for Gonzo's Inu to Hasami wa Tsukaiyō ( InuHasa) television anime updated with the anime's newest promotional video and additional cast members on Friday.
The absurd mystery comedy centers around Kazuhito Harumi, a high school boy who is obsessed with reading books. One day, he is killed in the middle of a robbery — and resurrected as a dachshund dog. Unable to read in his new form, the hapless Kazuhito now belongs to Kirihime Natsuno, a sadistic novelist who uses scissors on Kazuhito to abuse him.
The lead cast are reprising their roles from last year's drama CD:
Marina Inoue (Highschool of the Dead's Rei Miyamoto, Haganai's Yōzōra Mikazuki) as Kirihime Natsuno
Takahiro Sakurai (Berserk film's Griffith, Code Geass' Suzaku, NAKAIMO's Shōgo Mikadono) as Kazuhito Harumi
Kana Asumi as Kazuhito's sister Madoka Harumi
Shizuka Itou as Kirihime's brilliant editor Suzuna Hiiragi
Ai Kakuma as Kazuhito's classmate Hami Ohsawa
Yū Serizawa as the idol author Maxi Akizuki
Wataru Hatano as the pet shop manager Kiyoshi Inukai
Maaya Uchida and Hiromi Igarashi as Kazuhito's former classmate Sakura Honda and her little sister Yayoi
Momiji Himehagi (voice not revealed yet)
Chiwa Saitō as the maid Sachi Moribe
Shunsuke Sarai launched the novel series with illustrations by Tetsuhiro Nabeshima in 2011, and Enterbrain's Famitsu Bunko imprint will publish the sixth volume on January 30. Along with a short story volume, the novel series will have 300,000 copies in print.
The story earned an honor in the Entame Taishō awards' novel category. Kamon Ooba launched a manga adaptation in Kadokawa Shoten's Monthly Shōnen Ace magazine last May.
