■Pitohui: Yoko Hikasa

I never thought they would do a continuation of GGO! ! I can’t hide my surprise, but at the same time, even after 6 years, both the work and the characters still leave a strong impression on me, and I want to play Pito-san even more cruelly and with pranks while having fun.
Please look forward to it!

■M: Kazuyuki Okitsu

GGO returns after 6 years──
What was GGO? ?
Oh! ! !
It’s Gun Gale Online! ! ! !
I remember having a hard time playing the gigantic Em-san in the previous work, but I showed growth over time, and this time too, I did a great job! Let’s protect Pitohui! !
No, if you don’t follow what I say, you’ll be in trouble. No, if you don’t listen to what I say, you’ll be in trouble…
Wow! I’ll keep my spirits up and do my best! ! !

■Fukajiro: Chinatsu Akasaki

Congratulations on the decision to produce the second season of GGO & yay! !
I’m so happy to be able to immerse myself in that world view again after about 6 years.
It’s a festival where people go wild and shoot guns at each other!
So, let’s release it flashily like a hookah gray run! !
Please prepare a salute and wait.
