NAGI TAIRA

平良凪

CV:Koki Uchiyama COMMENT

The story's protagonist. After taking a bullet to the head, he was left in a persistent unconscious state and now lives his life in a wheelchair. He possesses a unique constitution that causes him to awaken whenever he senses "murderous intent" directed toward him. By masterfully operating his "Tank Chair"—a wheelchair modified for combat—he annihilates his enemies with overwhelming force. He cherishes his younger sister, Shizuka, above all else and never hesitates to put his own life on the line to protect her. He is a former top student of Class A, the most elite rank at the Academy, an institution for training assassins.

CV:Minori Fujidera COMMENT

Nagi's younger sister and the partner who supports the strongest assassin, "Tank Chair." Burdened by the guilt that she is responsible for her brother's current condition, she continues to provide constant care for him while he remains unconscious. Believing that "exceptional murderous intent" against Nagi will restore him to his former self, she leads him into battles against formidable enemies under the guise of "rehabilitation."

CV:Gakuto Kajiwara COMMENT

A Class A student at the Academy. He specializes in assassination arts that involve erasing his presence, utilizing the ability of the "Migraine Mollusk"—a semi-biological creature parasitic to his brain. In exchange for using this power, he is constantly tormented by excruciating headaches. He harbors a fierce rivalry toward his former classmate, Nagi. He cherishes his younger sister, Touko, to an obsessive degree and will stop at nothing to protect her.

CV:Saori Hayami COMMENT

Naozumi's younger sister and, like her brother, a Class A student at the Academy. She fights by temporarily enhancing her physical abilities through the inhalation of a special gas from a cylinder she wears. Although she expresses her emotions only through a "Shooo" sound, she is able to communicate perfectly with her brother. She has absolute trust in Naozumi and fights alongside him as his partner.

TANK CHAIR MARK 1

戦車椅子・第一號機

The standard configuration of the combat wheelchair piloted by Nagi. Equipped with blades on both arms, it is designed to shred through enemies. It is even capable of superhuman feats of mobility, such as scaling vertical walls by deploying spikes from its tires.

I was surprised by Nagi Taira’s unique condition—he is completely unconscious under normal circumstances, but awakens the moment an Intent to Kill is directed at him. “TANK CHAIR-戦車椅子” is an anime tightly packed with intense character drama, battle action and loaded with a wide variety of gimmicks. Instead of standard post-recording, we use pre-scoring for every session. The entire cast is bringing an incredible amount of focus and passion to the mic, so I really hope as many people as possible will watch it.

I'm Minori Fujidera, and I will be playing the role of Shizuka Taira.
Shizuka is such a straightforward girl, willing to risk her own life if it means reviving her older brother, Nagi. She carries such a heavy burden that just imagining myself in her situation makes my chest tighten. Still, whenever I see her aloof demeanor or catch a glimpse of her true feelings in unexpected moments, I can't help but feel how incredibly endearing she is. During the recording sessions, I made sure to listen closely so I wouldn't miss a single word of the amazing performances by the veteran cast members. Surrounded by a team overflowing with love for this series, I threw myself wholeheartedly into playing Shizuka.
All the characters are a bit clumsy in their own ways, and I am truly drawn to the strength they possess precisely because they are imperfect. The action sequences, which are so unique to “TANK CHAIR-戦車椅子”, are also incredibly captivating.
I hope you're all looking forward to the anime!

I'm Gakuto Kajiwara, and I will be playing the role of Naozumi Kurosaka.
Naozumi is Touko's older brother, who lives each day consumed by anguish, anger, and pain. When playing him, I wring out every last drop of my own negative emotions, approaching the role with a heart that's nearly drained dry...! Because of that, performing as him is incredibly exhausting, in a good way... (laughs). But thanks to that, I believe a lot of his true depths are packed into the performance.
Furthermore, we are recording our performances using the pre-scoring method. Thanks to this, the performances are largely entrusted to us actors, allowing us to act with a great deal of freedom!
I'm fighting as if my life depends on it, letting my emotions completely explode, so please watch and enjoy “TANK CHAIR-戦車椅子-” !!

The Kurosaka siblings weave another story alongside the Taira siblings. The younger sister, Touko, is a remarkably strong person who always thinks of her older brother, Naozumi, and possesses the firm resolve to protect him.
During our recording sessions, I make sure to approach my performance by cherishing the deep bond they have built as brother and sister.

Actually, during the audition, I was quite surprised to find that my script consisted of nothing but 'Shooo, Shooo, Shooo'! Furthermore, the main series is recorded using the pre-scoring method, where we act out our dialogue interactions beforehand. My heart pounded as I stepped into this new world, but now I’m truly appreciating its depth and enjoying the process with a good kind of tension.

The sheer coolness and fast-paced battles of the original work, as well as each character's story, are being carefully brought to life in the anime.
I believe it’s shaping up to be an incredibly impactful visual work! I truly hope you enjoy it!
