Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated Aug 18

Rei Sakuma's recent work spans both a long-running children's series and a newly released game. In Anpanman, she plays Batako, a role that came into focus on July 30 when she shared a script mix-up on X. The script mistakenly assigned Baikinman's name to Batako's dialogue, and during a run-through she read the line in Baikinman's voice. Fans responded with laughter online, turning a simple typo into a moment of humor for the series' audience.

Earlier in the year, Sakuma was featured in the launch trailer for Schrodinger's Call, a novel adventure game released by Shueisha Games on May 28. She voices Hamlet in the game. The release included a 10% discount on Nintendo Switch and Steam through early June, a 74-store bookstore collaboration with five collectible cards, and a 76-track original soundtrack available on Steam. The game marks the commercial debut of Acrobatic Chirimenjako, the three-person team that won the Shueisha Game Creators CAMP GAME BBQ vol.1 grand prize.

Together, the two stories show Sakuma working across different genres and formats, from a long-running animated series to a new interactive title. Her public posts and trailer appearances keep her connected to fans, and the script mix-up became a lighthearted talking point that reinforced her presence in the Anpanman cast.
