The digital comic app “Comic ROLLY (https://rolly.jp/“) released the third episode of “MANGA PLAYLIST,” a feature in which famous manga fans introduce their favorite works, which was launched on the service’s first anniversary on Thursday, August 1, 2024.
[PLAYLIST]has become a catalyst for hits in the music scene. PLAYLIST, which is selected on various themes, is developed around manga. “MANGA PLAYLIST” is a corner where famous people who love manga become selectors and introduce the titles of manga they want you to read now or are hooked on, in the form of a playlist, based on the theme of their selection intention and thoughts.
In this project, in which famous manga fans introduce their favorite works, the first selector was Ryota Yanagisawa (SUPER BEAVER), and the second was Saku Mizuno (voice actor). Their passionate comments about their favorite works have caused a stir among manga fans.
Toya Kikunosuke, who has also achieved remarkable success as a voice actor, has appeared as the third selector for “MANGA PLAYLIST”.
Toya, who has been active in a wide range of roles, including as Denji in the hit anime “Chainsaw Man,” as well as Fubuki in “The Prince Who Runs Away,” Hadis in “The Restarting Lady is Conquering His Majesty the Dragon Emperor,” which starts in October, and Todo Heisuke in “Blue Miburo,” has chosen the theme for his playlist as “manga that makes you feel youthful.”
Toya, who says that what the characters in youth manga have in common is that “they live their lives seriously!”, has selected works that will allow adults to look back on their own youth or simulate a youth they never experienced.
Please enjoy the work along with Toya Kikunosuke’s “recommended comment.”
“MANGA PLAYLIST” will continue to be developed in the future. Please enjoy discovering new manga works along with the selectors’ thoughts.
