Phantasy Star Online 2 Cast and Staff Announced, PSO Anniversary Projects Rollout

AnimeNewsNetwork translated a production staff and voice actor list for Phantasy Star Online 2: The Animation, set to air in 2016. Some key production roles are shown below:

  • Director:  Keiichiro Kawaguchi
  • Writer: Mitsutaka Hirota
  • Character Design: Minoko Takasu

Some of the voice talent attached to this project include Shouta Aoi, Ayaka Suwa, and M.A.O.. The studio doing the animation work is Telecom Animation Film, a studio that has been in the business for a long time and coincidentally is a subsidiary of Sega-Sammy Holdings. Telecom Animation Film has done Sega-related productions in the past, including the Hero Bank anime that aired in Japan.

Interestingly, the article that AnimeNewsNetwork sourced for their writeup also happens to display some of the other projects celebrating 15 years of Phantasy Star Online. One of those items is a Phantasy Star Online 2 Fashion Catalog, covering Scratch costumes from 2012-2015. There’s even an Amazon.jp page for it here. It’s set to release in a couple of days: August 11th!
