Ichinose Kana (role of Ishimori Uka) As the title “Honey Lemon Soda” suggests, it’s not just sweet but also has a tingling sensation like soda. I couldn’t stop reading the original work.
Uka is a brave and strong-willed girl. I was moved by his honest efforts to change himself. How will Uka-chan change after meeting Miura-kun? I look forward to the sweet and sour, fizzy moment! Yano Shogo (Miura Kai): When I heard I passed the audition, I was so happy that I hugged my manager without thinking.
I needed clarification about the role, which I hadn’t played much before, but I read the original work repeatedly and decided to play Kai again. I’m nervous about every recording session, but as the Title suggests, I’ll do my best to deliver a sweet, refreshing, and fun-filled youth story!
