Additional Voice Actor Cast Revealed: Four Powerhouse Actors Portray Key Roles
On February 13th, the official team unveiled the voice actors for four characters crucial to the plot's development. These characters revolve around the male and female protagonists—Kihachi Sakamoto and Inako Momokawa—deeply influencing the journey to find the "Electrical Catalog".
Yosuke Mizoe — Voiced by: Koki Uchiyama
The young master of the "Mizoe Store", who amassed a vast fortune through steam engines. He exhibits an abnormal and unsettling obsession with the legendary "Twenty First Century Electrical Catalog". How Koki Uchiyama will portray this wealthy young master, who opposes or competes with the main characters, using his calm and mysterious voice, is highly anticipated.
Seiroku Sakamoto — Voiced by: Daisuke Ono
The older brother of the male protagonist Kihachi, he is a charismatic genius inventor who pours boundless passion into electrical inventions. While captivating in the eyes of many, he left for the battlefield and never returned, becoming one of the greatest mysteries in the work. Daisuke Ono's mature and steady acting skills are expected to perfectly portray this key figure who exists in memories and legends.
Kengo Kuga — Voiced by: Shunsuke Takeuchi
A former soldier possessing a physique and monstrous strength as tough as a steam locomotive, he is also the fiancé of Noriko, the older sister of Inako Momokawa. Shunsuke Takeuchi's deep and solid voice perfectly matches the image of this powerful character.
Noriko Momokawa — Voiced by: Minako Kotobuki
The older sister of the female protagonist Inako, and also the fiancée of Kengo Kuga. She is strong-willed, capable, shrewd, and skilled in martial arts, playing the role of a reliable pillar in the Momokawa family. Minako Kotobuki's performance will showcase the resilient side of this Meiji-era woman.
Story Synopsis: A Meiji Kyoto Adventure Interwoven with Steam and Electricity
The stage for 《Twenty First Century Electrical Catalog》 is set in early 20th century (Meiji era) Kyoto—a period of intense collision between the old and new eras. Traditional beliefs, advanced steam engines, and the "electrical" civilization about to change the world converge here.
The story follows a girl, Inako Momokawa, from a sake-brewing family who faces constant misfortune and can only find solace in gods and buddhas. She meets a boy, Kihachi Sakamoto, who denies gods and buddhas and firmly believes the "Age of Electricity" is coming. For their own reasons—searching for a mysterious book that predicts the future, the "Electrical Catalog", and escaping an unwanted marriage—the two embark on an adventurous journey spanning Kyoto and Shiga.
