Joniing her are rookie voice actresses Yurie Kozakai, Saori Murakita, and Hippo, all of whom are currently appearing in the anime series We Love Rice.
On board as research students are fresh faces Natsume Isawa, Ayami Tamura, Ayumi Nakamizo, and Kaede Yuuki.
Over the course of the series, "guest lecturers" will be stopping in to talk about the world of anime. First up are Aniplex president Koichiro Natsume and Kemono Friends producer Yoshitada Fukuhara.
