CATDOLL: Voice actor Tetsuya Kakihara will appear on the NHK program "R's Law" to be broadcast on December 9

The voice actor Tetsuya Kakihara, who once played "Accelerator" in the "A Certain Magical Index" series, Simon in "Gurren Lagann" and Natsu in "Fairy Tail", and is affectionately called "Persimmon" by fans, will appear in NHK TV's educational program "R's Law". The increasing number of voice actors appearing in general TV programs also shows the recognition and acceptance of animation voice actors by society. Do you remember that Kayano Ai once made a guest appearance in a Japanese drama?

"R's Law" is a TV program of NHK Education in Japan. It is a parenting and variety show broadcast every Wednesday from 18:55 to 19:25 (Japan Standard Time). It was tested on February 23, 2011 and officially aired on March 30. Since April 2012, it has been expanded to broadcast from 18:55 to 19:25 from Monday to Thursday. The program is mainly composed of a group of middle school and high school students who discuss various life issues, rank them, and exchange opinions with each other. The program also interviews students in person and compiles statistics on their opinions.

The theme of the program to be aired on December 9 is "Let your brain light up! The world of palindromes" (アタマが良くなる！回文の世界), and the content mainly discusses the "palindrome" that is very popular among young people and can be read both forward and backward. The voiceover narrator of this episode is none other than Tetsuya Kakihara.

In fact, if you often watch Japanese TV programs, you will find that many veteran voice actors often serve as voice-over narrators, the most typical of which is Keiji Fujiwara. Although Tetsuya Kakihara is not very old, he is already a well-known figure in the voice actor industry. It is an honor for him to be selected by NHK as a narrator.
