Anime lovers, especially fans of the series Tower of God, have something exciting to look forward to at this year’s Anime Festival Asia (AFA) Singapore. Crunchyroll has announced a special panel on November 30, 2024, featuring two iconic voices from the anime: Taichi Ichikawa and Saori Hayami. Ichikawa is the voice behind Jyu Viole Grace (Twenty-Fifth Bam), while Hayami voices Rachel, two central characters whose fates are deeply intertwined in the series.
Fans of the show know that Bam’s journey through the treacherous and mysterious Tower of God begins with his deep connection to Rachel, and it’s this relationship that sparks much of the show’s emotional tension. This special event offers a chance for anime enthusiasts to hear firsthand from the stars who bring these characters to life.
The event will kick off with a panel discussion where both Taichi Ichikawa and Saori Hayami will share behind-the-scenes stories from the recording booth and reflect on the growth and evolution of their characters across the series. For many fans, hearing how Ichikawa and Hayami interpret the dynamics between Bam and Rachel will be a rare treat, offering new insights into the motivations and emotions that drive these beloved figures.
Following the panel, fans will have an even more exclusive opportunity: a meet-and-greet session with Taichi Ichikawa. This interactive session promises to be a highlight of the festival, giving attendees the chance to engage with Ichikawa directly, snap photos, and possibly score a few autographs. While Saori Hayami is not scheduled for a meet-and-greet, her participation in the panel discussion will be equally captivating.
For those unfamiliar with Tower of God, the anime follows the story of Bam, a boy who has spent his life trapped beneath a mysterious tower. His world changes when Rachel, the only person who ever cared for him, enters the tower to chase her dream of seeing the stars. Bam, unwilling to let Rachel go, follows her into the tower, where he encounters powerful enemies, new allies, and deep mysteries.
With Season 2 of Tower of God now expanding the anime’s rich narrative, featuring new characters like Ja Wangnan and Viole, the series has continued to capture fans’ imaginations worldwide.
Mark your calendars for November 30, 2024, at AFA Singapore—this is one event no Tower of God fan will want to miss!
