the Japanese portal hominis shared an interview with the voice actress Aoi Kogaabout his interpretation of the character Kaguya Shinomiya within the franchise Kaguya-sama: Love is warspecifically in the movie Kaguya-sama: The first kiss never ends. In the third season, his character and Miyuki Shiroganeanother protagonist, eventually kissed and cemented their relationship, but what comes next?

  • Please share your impressions about Kaguya-sama: The First Kiss Never Ends and its showing in Japanese cinemas.
  • The third season had a very good conclusion story wise and I thought the production would end there. Narrator Yutaka Aoyama mentioned "There's more to come, there's more to come!" in the last episode though The sound director told me, "It's over, so please follow the script one last time." Then I thought, "Oh, well, it seems it's the end." But then they said to me, "We're going to do the sequel, don't worry," and I was super happy. I'll still be able to watch the sequel, I'll still enjoy the story of Kaguya and her friends, I thought. And when I heard it was going to be a movie, I couldn't be happier.
Kaguya-sama: Love is war
  • What was the challenge of shooting an animated film?
  • I've received numerous messages of joy from fans who have supported me. When the third season aired, I received many compliments saying, "I'm so glad you played Kaguya, Koga-san," which made me very happy. I was happy to be involved in this project and at the same time I could feel from the reactions that the fans have a lot of trust in us actors, which made me happy and at the same time felt very rewarded. Because they trust me, I felt a strong sense of responsibility, or rather a strong desire not to let them down.
  • The new film stars a cold-hearted character named "Ice Kaguya," what do you think is the appeal of this version of Kaguya?
  • In the anime, the focus from the start is on the current Kaguya, but in the past monologues there was a rather ruthless sentiment or part of it that was very similar to "I choose who to connect with based on whether I connect." myself." Is it useful or not", and I think we probably got a look at the Ice Kaguya. But I think after meeting all the student council members, I became what is known as a regular Kaguya myself.
  • Up until then, it was more about being ruthless, and I think that's what Kaguya is all about, because the current Kaguya comes straight from the Ice Kaguya who was the first. At first glance, she's just ruthless, but there's actually a good reason for that.
  • I think those who follow the anime will discover Ice Kaguya's appeal through this new work, and fans of the original work are looking forward to seeing what this version of the protagonist will look like. Not only is it cold but it shows what the heart of the Ice Kaguya is and I think if people could see that more people would love this version. Please cherish her, I think immediately.
  • There are many fascinating characters in Kaguya-sama: Love is War, but which character do you like the most?
  • Kaguya is my first choice, partly because I play her, but if not Kaguya then President. I really admire him. Of course he worked hard and pushed himself while Kaguya is able to do everything smoothly. Not only is the President athletically clumsy, he is also a bad singer, tried very hard in his studies and is still one of the best students.
  • I think that having a genius who can work really hard, or the strength and energy to try and be by Kaguya's side, is something that ordinary people would never be able to do. I think that kind of attitude makes the president great, and I think that's an irreplaceable thing. This is very important to me.

The film Kaguya-sama: The first kiss never ends It opened in Japanese theaters on December 17th and will soon have a TV special. There is no confirmation yet if there will be screenings in Latin American cinemas.
