Figure lines getting anime adaptations is interesting—it's a unique approach that flips the usual anime-to-merchandise pipeline. 300,000 units sold shows there's demand; that level of success for a figure line launched in 2021 proves fans are invested in these characters. The character designs look really appealing; the vibrant colors and detailed outfits work well for both figures and animation. Miho Okasaki and Rina Hidaka are solid choices—both have extensive experience voicing diverse characters in fantasy series.

The upcoming TV anime based on the science fiction/fantasy bishoujo figure series Arcanadea revealed two additional cast members today.
