Sannan-hen cast announcement
Short disclaimer before we get into the topic: I don’t have as much time today as I did when I wrote my post about the Souma-hen cast announcement, I’ll mostly include their names, if they’re new to Hakumyu or not and some pictures. However, I will leave some links below each section so that you can follow their social media or check their past works, and of course you can always check the official Hakumyu website. I may post more info when the pictures with the stage costumes are released.
Keisuke Sannan - Teruma (輝馬)
His time is finally here! Our dear Teruma who has played Sannan since Reimeiroku gets to be the poster boy! The gods know I would pay to have both Ryosuke Mikata and Teruma working together to represent pre and post ochimizu Sannan, but I’m really excited to see Teruma with a leading role and listen to his strong and beautiful voice.
And here you have some gifs from Souma-hen so that you can see Teruma with the Shinkai uniforms~
Chizuru Yukimura - Shion Aoki (青木志穏)
New route, new Chizuru, so it’s her first time participating in Hakumyu.
Toshizo Hijikata - Hidetoshi Kubota (久保田秀敏)
Hijikata since Souma-hen.
Souji Okita - Kento Kitamura (北村健人)
Okita since Shinkai Saito-hen.
Hajime Saito - Shoichiro Oomi (大海将一郎)
Saito in Souma-hen and Hakumyu LIVE 3, but he wasn’t there for Shinkai Saito-hen.
Heisuke Todou - Yuta Higuchi (樋口裕太)
Heisuke since Shitan Hijikata-hen.
Shinpachi Nagakura - Ryosuke Koike (小池亮介)
Nagakura since Souma-hen? I was very confused when I researching this because I saw everyone saying he’s the Nagakura in Souma-hen but back when I wrote my Souma-hen cast post the person who was casted was Yuta Kishimoto. I looked for tweets from the official Hakumyu Twitter account that included their names and apparently he was in the original cast announcement, but once the visuals with the stage costumes were released the one mentioned is Ryosuke Koike, so I guess there was a last minute change there.
Sanosuke Harada - Shouta Kawakami (川上将大)
Harada since Souma-hen.
Susumu Yamazaki - Tsukasa Taguchi (田口司)
New to Hakumyu, replaces Taizo Shiina, who had been playing Yamazaki since Shitan Hijikata-hen. I’m looking forward to seeing his performance and I wonder if he will be here for Yamazaki-hen!
Isami Kondou - Taira Imata (井俣太良)
BEST DAD SINCE OKITA HEN KEEPS GOING STRONG. I still cry because Kondou wasn’t in the original Saito-hen and that means he was robbed of having the role in every single Hakumyu.
Chikage Kazama - Yoshihide Sasaki (佐々木喜英)
It’s no secret that Shogo Suzuki is my fave Kazama, but I guess he’s busy with the Moriarty the Patriot musical. Yoshihide Sasaki is the actor who has been casted as Kazama more times after Shogo (and my dearest Viscount of Druitt). Kinda funny that none of his socials are on the Hakumyu official website when he’s pretty much one of the most popular actors/singers participating.
Kyuju Amagiri - Masafumi Yokoyama (横山真史)
Amagiri since Souma-hen.
Kyo Shiranui - Takuma Sueno (末野卓磨)
Shiranui since Shitan Kazama-hen *cries in Yusuke Kashiwagi*.
Kodo Yukimura - Hiroyuki Kawamoto (川本裕之)
Kodo since Harada-hen. There’s -1000 information about this guy in English, no Twitter, no Mydramalist and no anything. There’s a voice actor with the same name that pops up when looking for him, but it isn’t the same person.
Kaoru Nagumo - Yuzuki Hoshimoto (星元裕月)
New to the role because Kaoru hasn’t been on Hakumyu since Hakumyu LIVE.
And that’s it! It took a long time to write this post but I’m super happy to be back!
