Sano Yuto, a member of the vocal dance unit M!LK, has moved into voice acting with a major role in Toy Story 5. He voices the new high-tech toy Smarty Pants in the Japanese dub. He passed an audition at Pixar's US headquarters and re-recorded about 80-90% of his lines after the initial dubbing session, working with the director to refine the performance. The casting marks his first voice acting role in a franchise he has followed since childhood.
His involvement with the film extended to a park event. On July 3, he made a surprise appearance at Tokyo Disneyland, riding in an omnibus with fellow cast members Karasawa Toshiaki and Tokoro George during a special evening parade celebrating the film's release. The event marked the first time the full Japanese voice cast of Toy Story 5 appeared together at a park event.
In music, M!LK's official account announced Sano Yuto and Yoshida Jinto's unit song "Tsumi to Batsu to Ame to Kiss" as the fifth installment of the "Mo-retsu Mo-shin! Release Project 2026." The song has been available for streaming since August 3. The jacket illustration, drawn by PEACH-PIT, known for Rozen Maiden and Shugo Chara!, features a gothic atmosphere with roses and a snake, and has drawn praise from fans on social media.
