The taste is sweet, but the technique is spicy! I was in charge of the voice of Dots. I added a lot of ad-lib toppings (heart) Enjoy the pop and exciting world of sweets (Heart)

They’re playful and cute, and the personalities of the three characters are packed into their short lines, so it was a lot of fun to play them! Tuna’s silly behavior is actually a very advanced blur, so be sure to listen carefully!

It’s not that sweet, no, it’s super sweet in a way. It’s a strange world, but have you ever fantasized about something similar? I thought. Please enjoy all of this work. Production team comment

In addition, the compatibility with the drawing part has improved, and we were able to create a fresh and attractive visual that is cohesive as a whole! I think the more you look at Dots, who is so cute that you can’t hate him at all, and Prue, who keeps trembling, the more you understand their charm. Please immerse yourself in this worldview!

In order to create a world that brings out the charm of the characters that appear, we developed ideas from various perspectives. The 2D illustration I drew was transformed into an even more attractive world by Mametaro as 3DCG. Please enjoy the dream-filled “SWEETS MATE”, which is filled with the thoughts of the entire production team! About the short animation “SWEETS MATE” “SWEETS MATE” is an original short animation work that depicts a fierce battle between fancy sweets, set in the “Annie’s Dish” in the mind of Annie, a girl who loves sweets.

The first champion of Annie’s Dish. However, that was the glory of the past, and even today I am losing all my self-confidence. My dream is to make Annie smile again. The problem is that I can’t cover my back. Chel (CV: Fairuz Ai) A chewy cherry that won’t shake. Going my way. The language is a little rough. A former member of the powerful Cherry Pies, he left because his overly straightforward personality didn’t suit him. When I’m happy, I dance. Dots (CV: Kenta Miyake) Powerful donuts boasting muscles. Originally, he was active with his bare face, but one day he made his debut with a chocolate mask. Although he has a mountainous personality, he may or may not have a warm side that cares about his friends. Donna & Nana & Tuna (CV: Maaya Uchida) Three bite-sized donut brothers. I admire Dots who is strong and has a big voice. It imitates the attack of the respected Dots, but because it is bite-sized, it does not have the same effect. The unit name is “Triple Rings”. ■ Work summary Title: “SWEETS MATE” (Director: Takashi Tominaga) Release date: Tuesday, December 10, 2024 Publication location: YouTube and official work X Official X:
