Keiichi is a diehard fan still devoted to Hanaka despite her serving a prison sentence. He is easily excitable when it comes to Hanaka, but gentlemanly, and respectful of the distance between fan and pop star. He is taking part in the Yurukill Games to help Hanaka prove her innocence.

1) Thoughts on playing Keiichi
2) A message for Yurukill: The Calumniation Games players

"Keiichi Oka's a fairly intense looking character, and well, let's just say that inside he's even more intense. I suppose this posed a challenge for me when thinking about how to approach his character. My first impression was that he was a bit self-centered and kind of unloveable. But as I read more, I began to realize that, actually, this guy wasn't a completely lost cause. He's irritating, clingy, formidable, but ultimately a decent guy, and I really tried my hardest to convey that with my performance. If players get to the end and think, "this guy's kinda sweet," then that'll be more than enough of a reward for me, and for Oka, himself. By all means, please check out the game! This is an adventure game, but that's not all. This is a hybrid effort. I get the impression some people may find that somewhat of a barrier to entry, but I'd urge them to give it a try. The story in and of itself is a whole lot of fun, and there's also an easy mode. So basically, there's no need to be worried. Also, the characters may all be utterly mad, but those mad characters slot perfectly into a super engaging, well-constructed story that's a treat to dig into. That's why I want as many people as possible to play the game. I completely wore out my throat a bunch of times during the recording, and I'd love for everyone to see the hard work that went into Yurukill!"

Hanaka is an underground pop star imprisoned for a particularly sensational incident. She’s sweet and genuine, and cares about her fans. She knew her teammate Oka before taking part in the Yurukill Games. The other participants often don’t know what to make of the pair’s unique, energetic interactions.

2) A message for Yurukill: The Calumniation Games players

"I play Hanaka Ichirin, the Prisoner. She was arrested for murder, but she's also something of an underground pop star, and has her sights set on becoming the ultimate pop sensation. Because she's been toiling away on the bottom rungs of the pop star circuit, she's no stranger to hardship as well as the sweeter things in life. She's got plenty of very typical pop star quirks, and there were some difficult scenes where I had to really work to keep up with the changing pace of her emotions. I just hope that on the whole, her dedication, professionalism and cuteness shine through. Simply put, Yurukill: The Calumniation Games has a fascinating story—the kind that shocks and chills you and really gets under your skin, and I mean that in the best possible way. I really hope players get stuck into the quizzes and shoot 'em up sections, get to know all the characters and the incidents they're embroiled in, and get to the bottom of the mystery of Yurukill Land!"

Izane Akegarasu

Dislikes: People who yell
Interests: People watching

Izane works for Yurukill, Inc. as Gentoku’s chaperone. She is mysterious and doesn’t leave much of an impression, and it’s difficult to tell how old she is. You could say she was in her teens or in her thirties and no-one would bat an eyelid. She is extremely timid, and prone to bouts of sobbing. Yet she sometimes makes sly remarks to her teammate, Gentoku.

1) Thoughts on playing Izane
2) A message for Yurukill: The Calumniation Games players

"I'm sure people will quickly find out once they start playing, but Izane is a very idiosyncratic character, and she was a lot of fun to play. I want everyone to get their hands on the game as soon as possible just so they can see how crazy she is! At first glance she seems pretty feeble, but, well, things aren't quite what they seem. Let's put it that way. Anyway, I hope everyone plays the game once it comes out. I suppose Izane turns out to be a fairly important character... Although you can say that about all of them, Izane is definitely something special. I said it before, but I really can't wait until you can get your hands on Yurukill! It's such an interesting game—I really hope people play right through till the end."
