LET ME EXPLAIN!

At first, I will explain why I cast Heléne Yorke, a Broadway star, as the voice of Kokone Morikawa/Princess Ancien Heart. It's because I'd like to hear her voice in more western animation voice acting projects apart from Robot Chicken, BoJack Horseman, American Dad! and Family Guy. I cast established voice actors Seth Green, Ethan Sawyer and Peter Oldring as the voices of Morio, Sawatari and Isshin Shijima, respectively. The reason why I decided so is because I would like to hear their voices in an anime. Morio is Kokone's childhood friend, Sawatari is one of Momotarō's friends and Isshin Shijima himself is the chairman of his own motor company. Because I would like to hear the voice of a celebrity actor in Ancien and the Magic Tablet, I cast Bonnie Hunt as the voice of Ikumi Morikawa, Kokone's mother. Established voice actors Nolan North and Douglas Rye, as well as Canadian actor Wayne Thomas Yorke are my only choices for the voices of Ichirō Watanabe, Bewan and the King of Heartland, respectively. You know that Ichirō Watanabe is the man who plans to take over the Shijima Motor Company. Bewan is one of Heartland's ministers and an inquisitor, while the King of Heartland is, logically, the father of Princess Ancien Heart. And guess whom I cast as the voice of Kokone's father, Momotarō? That's right! It's the amazing Matt Hill! Todd Haberkorn (Kijita, a police officer), Wendee Lee (Joy, a talking stuffed animal) and Lucien Dodge (Takiji, a companion of Peach and Princess Ancien Heart) are all the established anime voice actors. And Trevor Devall, a newbie in the western animation voice acting industry in Los Angeles, is the voice of Ukki, another companion of Peach and Princess Ancien Heart. I picked these voice actors based in Los Angeles for the ''additional voices'' cast: Mark Atherlay, Michael Beattie, Marc Comstock, Sara Cravens, Charles Klausmeyer, Bruce Nozick and Lloyd Sherr.
