## Story

Goro, a first-year high school student at a private high school in Tokyo, has no hopes, no dreams, and no ambitions. The world is indifferent to him, and he has a faint longing for Honoka, a classmate from the same school. He and his best friend Akitsu live a boring, unchanging life. One day, Goro receives a strange notification on his smartphone: “You have been chosen. Breathe into me your wish." Thinking it malicious spam, Goro types, "I want to have sex with Honoka, the woman of my dreams.”

The next day, Honoka invites him to drop his pants at an unpopular arcade… “Congratulations on your great accomplishment!” Then, a mysterious girl, Lall, suddenly appears. Confused by this series of events, Goro is told of a cruel fate. Goro has been chosen by the "Great Will" to become a god to make his wish come true. With other potential gods, they are to kill one another until there is only one left. The ability given is the "Scripture of Fools". At the cost of the "Misfortune" that befalls you, the power to twist the cause and effect of the world and manipulate the reason of this world at will.

The first god candidate who appeared to kill Goro was, of course, Honoka, whom he had longed for. What choice will Goro make against Honoka, who attacks him mercilessly? Thus, the fetish battle royal by the god candidates, each with their own secrets, begins!

## Voice Actors' Commentaries

* **Goro Ono** (小野護郎, *Ono Gorō*) Voice Actor:
*"My name is Kazuki Ura, and I will be playing the role of Goro. I was excited about KamiErabi from the time of the audition and thought "I definitely want to be in it!" I was so excited to be a part of it since the audition. When I heard the news that I had been cast as Goro, I was gut-punched! Goro is a very modern and adolescent boy. I played the role while being particularly conscious of the instability and youth of the adolescent's unique self. Please enjoy the fetish battle royale by the god candidates!"*
* **Lall** (ラル, *Raru*) Voice Actor:
*"I am playing the voice of Lall. Is Lall a friend or foe, is she the ones that chooses or the one that is being chosen...there are many mysteries in this work. Although she is an enigmatic character, I recognize Lall as someone you can't hate. We hope that everyone will enjoy the disturbing and grotesque atmosphere of this work. Please watch a few episodes first and please get into it."*
* **Honoka Sawa** (佐和穂花, *Sawa Honoka*) Voice Actor:
*"My name is Sara Matsumoto and I will be playing the role of Honoka Sawa in KamiErabi. The characters each show "justice," but is the opposite evil, or is there another kind of justice? It will definitely make you think! We hope you will take note of the duality of Honoka and the beauty of the images and music."*
* **Yutaka Akitsu** (秋津豊, *Akitsu Yutaka*) Voice Actor:
*"I am Shuichi Uchida, who plays Akitsu! Just the thought of "the battle to determine God" makes my heart flutter. KamiErabi is filled with such excitement. Akitsu, who I will be playing, is truly a mood maker! Akitsu's charm is such that when he appears on stage, the air is filled with light. I will do my best too!"*
* **Chika Nojima** (能島千歌, *Nojima Chika*) Voice Actor:
*"My name is Natsuko Abe and I will be playing the role of Chika. Chika is a girl full of energy who fights with sharp words and actions but with a pure wish at the root. I was strongly attracted to her inner self and her outward appearance of twintails and a white coat. I am very honored to have been entrusted with the role of Chika, as I have always wanted to play the role of Chika. What kind of chemical reactions will occur for the sake of 'wishes'? I will do my best!"*
* **Koki Ama** (天昴輝, *Ama Kōki*) Voice Actor:
*"My name is Gakuto Kajiwara and I will be playing the role of Koki! Since it was an original story, I enjoyed anticipating what was to come from the post-recording stage. There are some things we are informed about, but there are also some things we dare not know. I think I am able to play the role while thinking along with the character. There is a lot of excitement and suspense coming from me. I think it will be a work well worth seeing, so please look forward to it!"*

I was very happy to be entrusted with a wonderful character! As this is an original animation work, we are also very much looking forward to working with you, the viewers, to make it a success.
