The official website for Sunrise and Production I.G's Sōkō Kihei Votoms Haiiro no Hexe revealed the cast, character designs, and a 30-second trailer for the two new Armored Trooper Votoms films. Shinichirō Miki, Yūki Kaji, Yūichi Nakamura, and others join the cast. Miyuki Sawashiro plays the feared AT pilot Ash Vamps, known as the Grey Witch.
The new Votoms films will not be short on veteran voices. The cast list runs deep with series regulars, and the character side is anchored by Miyuki Sawashiro as Ash Vamps, a feared AT pilot called the Grey Witch, with Mabuki Andou as Maki Stauffenberg, an officer assigned to look into Ash's past.
Staff credits confirm a heavy-hitter lineup. Kazuchika Kise handles original character concepts, Kunio Ōkawara the original mechanical designs, and Kenji Kawai composes the music. Mamoru Oshii directs both films, with Ryōsuke Takahashi supervising.
