[Comments from Cast]
■Inori Minase as Akane Kinoshita
How do Akane-chan, who is keen to have a relationship,
and a super cool professional gamer Yamada-kun build relationships?
Love at Lv999... What kind of Love is that!?
I would like you to see the original manga and the anime if you wonder like that!
I'll do my best to play a role freely to express comicality and make your heart pound!
Thank you for your support!
■Koki Uchiyama as Akito Yamada
I play a role of Akito Yamada, who is a very modern character,
a professional gamer and a high school student. He prioritizes games over romance.
In order to be able to express a delicate love story depicted in the original in full appeal, I am thinking of fulfilling my role.
Not to mention those who have loved "My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999," I would very much like those who don't know about it yet to pay attention.
Please look forward to the anime!
