NTT Solmare and the Obey Me! staff announced they mutually removed voice actor Miura Ayme from the role of Asmodeus after an investigation confirmed alleged private contact with a fan believed to be under 18. No sexual contact was confirmed, but the contact crossed professional boundaries. The role will be recast, including in the upcoming Obey Me! Sinner's Choice: Lucifer game.
The announcement, made Monday, follows an internal investigation into Ayme's alleged private contact with a fan believed to be underage. The staff stated that while no sexual contact was confirmed, the contact crossed professional boundaries expected of cast members.
Asmodeus's story will continue, with recasting plans to be shared later. This includes the upcoming Obey Me! Sinner's Choice: Lucifer game and in-game voice updates. Ayme had attended Anime Expo in July 2025 as part of a fan meeting with other cast members.
