Ross's comment
–Please tell us your impressions of this work.
At first, I thought it was fantastic.
Reading this book makes me feel like I'm walking in a dream, but when I see Luna's hardships living as a witch, I feel like I'm being pulled back to reality and my heart tightens.
Before I knew it, tears were falling over and over again.
It is a mysterious and warm piece of work that has a gentleness amidst the sadness, soothing and gently enveloping a tired heart.
–Please tell us your enthusiasm for being in charge of the theme song.
I was a little nervous at first, as it was a genre I had never created before, but as I continued reading the piece, the melodies and words mysteriously came to mind.
I am truly grateful to have been given the opportunity to take on a new challenge through this work.
Ending theme song

Comment from Ms.OOJA
–Please tell us your impressions of this work.
The main character, who poisons everything he touches, lives without ever knowing the joy of touching someone. Just think about someone quietly. It may be much more pure and gentle because it cannot cross the line.
People can find happiness just by having what they have in them from the beginning. That's what I felt from the work.
–Please tell us your enthusiasm for being in charge of the theme song.
I think this is a song and singing style that has never been seen before by Ms.OOJA. This work opened a new door for me. I think it would be great if the ending song could be integrated with the main story of the anime. Please enjoy it.

Claude (CV. Jun Fukushima)

Jun Fukushima cast comment
–What are your impressions of this work and the character you play?
Don't be fooled by the fairy tale worldview and cute characters! (←The person who was deceived) It's a toxic world. Hmm! This is a creative and wonderful work that makes you laugh, makes you cry, and touches your heart. Claude may look like this and have a mean tongue, but he's a kind kid. What is it?
–Please give a message to the fans of this work.
It was a really fun and exciting recording day! Every time I came into contact with the teacher's image, I felt that the characters and the play became more colorful, and it was an eye-opening experience many times. I'm really happy to be a part of this work! We all put a lot of passion and commitment into making it. Look forward to it! Shiitake is happy when you see it~♪
Minos (CV. Emiri Kato)
Cow magical creature. He lives with Luna in a poisonous mushroom house deep in the Black Forest. She can also transform into the form of an animal, a cow, and even go to town with Luna.
Emiri Kato cast comment
–What are your impressions of this work and the character you play?
Minos is a very pure person who is always by Luna's side.
They play around innocently like children, and sometimes they say things that even adults would be surprised at.
I myself am very comforted by the presence of Minos.
–Please give a message to the fans of this work.
Although the atmosphere of the work is very calm, it depicts various aspects of living people, so I hope you will enjoy getting close to the hearts of the characters.
Please look forward to the world of Champignon witches! (Minos is so cute!)
Melino (CV. Miho Okazaki)
A magical sheep creature. He lives with Luna in a poisonous mushroom house deep in the Black Forest. It can also transform into the form of an animal, a sheep.
Miho Okazaki cast comment
–What are your impressions of this work and the character you play?
Even in this world of magic that seems to be full of excitement, there are real rules and circumstances.
I was encouraged and thought-provoked by the way Luna and the others faced their fate.
Melino is a cute sheep. I would be happy if I could express the exquisite feeling of being reliable.
–Please give a message to the fans of this work.
This is a gentle and gentle story that makes you realize the feeling of a treasure that has fallen into the crevices of your heart.
At times, the poisonous (mushrooms only) word choices that make you laugh are also exquisite.
Let's spend a heart-warming time together!
Sissy (CV. Misato Fukuen)
Cat magical creature. He lives with Luna in a poisonous mushroom house deep in the Black Forest. He can transform into the form of an animal, a black cat.
Misato Fukuen cast comment
–What are your impressions of this work and the character you play?
A magical cat creature that lives in Luna's house. Compared to Melino and Minos, she is a little absent-minded, or rather her emotions are less emotional, which is what makes her adorable. A suit that covers your whole body? Also cute!
–Please give a message to the fans of this work.
Although it has a gentle atmosphere, it also has a serious side, making it a heart-wrenching work. While recording, I couldn't help but want Luna to be happy and smile. I would be happy if you could pay attention to why Sissy lives with Luna.
