Introduction

In a corner of the Forbidden City lies a secret organisation that guards the national treasures: On Myao Bo, the Imperial Cat Chamber. Its members are six cats who combine wisdom and courage.

To protect the memories dwelling within cultural relics, known as Wuhua, the cats enter the Wuhua World. Their mission is to defeat the malevolent Black Owl that damages these memories, and restore the Wuhua World to its proper course.

Boisterous and full of character, the cats quarrel and cooperate by turns as they strive to protect the treasures and the memories inscribed within them.

A new legend, unknown to humans, begins in the Forbidden City. To protect the Wuhua, the adventure of Soubi and his companions starts now.



Main characters, Japanese dub cast and comments

Soubi (Shuangmei): Kazuki Ura
The leader of On Myao Bo and the most brilliant mind among its officers. Always level-headed, he also has an adventurous streak and throws himself into dangerous missions without hesitation. He can be a little narcissistic.



I am Kazuki Ura, and I will be performing the Japanese dub for Soubi. Cats, cats, cats and more cats in the cast. What a wonderful world this is. As a cat lover, I cannot wait for the recording sessions. Beneath their usual adorable appearance lies a gallant bearing when they face their enemies, and fierce action scenes. I am looking forward to the day we can deliver this to everyone. Please look forward to it.

Oboi (Aobai): Makoto Furukawa
An officer of On Myao Bo and a power type with a formidable physique. He is highly self-assured, but in truth he is warm-hearted and devoted to his comrades. He and Shuangmei bicker constantly, yet they respect one another. He cannot stand up to his younger sister Momo.



I am Makoto Furukawa, voicing Oboi. In a fantastical world overflowing with cats, I have been letting my imagination run as to what kind of energetic performance I can give. The visuals are also beautiful, and I feel this is a work with real entertainment value. I would be delighted if you would give it your attention. Thank you very much.

Heian (Ping An): Sora Amamiya
An officer of On Myao Bo and a former stray who found her way to the chamber. A calm and refined elder-sister figure, she is skilled in disguise and medicine. With keen powers of observation and a strong sense of justice, she guides her highly individual companions.



From her features I got the impression of a composed and dependable older sister, but she is also a character with a strong sense of justice who excels in martial arts, so at the audition I approached her hoping to carry that inner strength in my voice. Her costume and bearing are wonderfully striking, and I am very much looking forward to seeing how she comes into her own, and how the battle scenes are portrayed.

Zeze (Xiaozai): Takeo Otsuka
An officer of On Myao Bo who excels at gathering information. Cheerful and endearing, he warms to anyone immediately. His time as a stray has left him unexpectedly wary, and he is also quite the glutton.



From the moment I received the audition materials, I was drawn to how adorable the character was. I am very happy to have been entrusted with the Japanese dub for Zeze. I am looking forward to seeing what kind of story unfolds. Thank you very much.

Rohan (Lu Ban): Kentaro Tone
The elder of On Myao Bo and its most senior support member. A learned font of wisdom versed in history and folklore, he quietly supports his younger companions. He is often found drinking tea.



Cat lovers of Japan, are you getting your fill of fluff? When you think of cats, you think of cuteness, comfort, and creatures that flow like liquid. But the cats in this work are more than that. They are also cool and graceful, and they weave a grand story. I am deeply honoured to take part in such a work as Rohan. He is a humorous character too, so I am looking forward to performing him. Rohan will do his best to convey the appeal of this story to you all.

Momo (Meme): Hikaru Tono
A support member of On Myao Bo, skilled at gathering and analysing information. Beautiful and personable, with high aptitude for learning, she is gifted in both looks and ability. Having been sheltered by her overprotective brother Oboi, she can be timid due to her lack of experience.



I am Hikaru Tono, and I will be playing Momo in On Myao Bo. The characters in this work are adorable cats. They live freely as they please, but certain special cats bear important duties. I am very happy to be able to leap into this world as Momo, who combines intelligence and a younger sister's charm while being timid and wholehearted. I will give my very best, and I hope many people will enjoy it.
