Voice of Cards by Yoko Taro is Secretly Turning Into a Bleach JRPG Series

Equally yous already know by now if you're a JRPG fan, Square Enix announced Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden for PC via Steam, PS4, and Nintendo Switch, coming on February 17, 2022, and there's something quite amusing for Bleach fans when it comes to the game's cast.

The Forsaken Maiden is the follow-up to Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars, with the same staff: Yoko Taro as creative managing director, Keiichi Okabe on music, Kimihiko Fujisaka on the chara design, and Yosuke Saito as producer. The same usual NieR team.

Phonation of Cards, despite its cards game looks and gameplay, is a pretty standard JRPG at the terminate of the twenty-four hour period. One particularity though is that the games have narrators: Game Masters. This is where the Bleach anime connection lies.

Bleach's Aizen is the new Game Chief of Vox of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden

Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden, in its initial trailer, revealed the narrator this time is legendary seiyuu Sho Hayami. He's primarily known in the West as the phonation of Aizen Sousuke, one of Bleach's and anime pop culture'south virtually iconic characters.

Sho Hayami has a distinctive voice that any longtime anime watcher will immediately recognize, so it was quite a shock when hearing his vocalisation in the Japanese version of the Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden trailer. Specially when considering who the previous Game Master was.

Sho Hayami succeeds Hiroki Yasumoto as Voice of Cards' narrator

What's even funnier is how the previous Game Master was Hiroki Yasumoto, who voiced Chad in Bleach. Yasumoto besides voiced Weiss in NieR, but this is Sho Hayami'south first fourth dimension in a Yoko Taro game, making the whole state of affairs hilarious for Bleach and seiyuu fans.

Sho Hayami is currently sick with Covid and we wish him a speedy recovery. What did yous think of the first Phonation of Cards, and are y'all looking forward to this sequel? Are you hyped for the new Bleach anime? Tell me in the comments below!
