Jaadugar Interview Closes Something Genuine Season 2
The season ends on the same beat it ran on: voice actors talking about what they brought from their own lives into a historical coming-of-age series whose Mongol Empire setting and Science SARU animation sit outside the usual seasonal register.
Reporting from 1 source: Beneath the Tangles.
A conversation with Cristina Vee and Yussef Benelbar, the English voices of Sitara and Mohammed in Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia, closed the second season of Something Genuine. The episode was recorded during a Crunchyroll press junket. The two discuss their connections to their characters, pursuing creative careers, and bringing their own backgrounds into their performances. Jaadugar is available to stream on Crunchyroll, and its finale has aired.
The season's last guest pairing came from a Crunchyroll press junket, not a studio sit-down, which is where a lot of English dub promotion now happens. Vee and Benelbar play Sitara and Mohammed in a story that follows Sitara through loss, survival, and education as the Mongol Empire rises around her. Benelbar speaks in the episode about playing an Arab character whose pursuit of knowledge matched his own life. Crunchyroll streams the series, and its finale has already aired.
