Beast of Reincarnation Voice Cast: What Was Actually Announced

Yui Ishikawa plays Emma, eight more Japanese actors were named with no roles attached, and no English cast was ever announced. What the publisher published, and where every other cast list comes from.

One announcement, carried by two outlets. Gematsu and Anime News Network agree exactly because they are printing the same press release — that is one source, not two, and this page does not count it as corroboration.

Which audio track?

The only casting the publisher actually announced. Also 2B in Nier: Automata and Violet Evergarden.

Eight more actors, no roles given

Named in the same announcement, in this order, with no character attached to any of them. Any page telling you which of these voices Kagura or Koo’s handler is filling in a blank the publisher left.

Whichever track you want, the option is not where most guides say it is. Changing the voice language covers the step the publisher’s own support article leaves out.

Who they are, rather than who plays them

Characters — all nine, with the story reveals behind a control
§01

One character was cast in public. Everything else is a name on a list.

Game Freak announced the voice talent in June 2026, and the announcement is narrower than the coverage it produced. It names Yui Ishikawa as Emma — 2B in Nier: Automata, and Violet Evergarden — and then lists eight further actors with no character attached to any of them: Miyuki Satou, Akio Ōtsuka, Sumire Morohoshi, Yū Kobayashi, Akira Ishida, Satoshi Mikami, Rina Satō and Tetsuo Kanao. That is the whole of the official casting. Any page that tells you which of those eight voices Kagura, or Brad, or anyone else, is filling in a blank the publisher left open.

  • The order above is the publisher’s own billing and is preserved rather than alphabetised — it is the only signal available about who is a lead.
  • “Named in the cast” and “cast as this character” are two different claims. Eight of these nine only support the first.
  • Gematsu and Anime News Network both carry it. They agree because it is one press release, so this page treats them as one source.
§02

There is an English dub, and there is no English cast list

This is the part worth arriving for, because it contradicts every page currently ranking for the query. The game ships an English dub — you can select it in the audio settings, and this site has a page about the step the publisher’s own support article omits. But the cast announcement named nine Japanese actors and zero English ones, and no English credits release followed it. The English lists circulating are user-submitted database entries, and the articles repeating them are built on those entries rather than on a source. The claim repeated most often is Hanako Footman as Emma. It may well be right. This site could not read the database that holds it, and could not read the in-game credits either, so it is recorded as unverified rather than printed as a cast.

  • Behind The Voice Actors — the database every one of those articles traces back to — serves this site a Cloudflare bot challenge. Working around it is not something this site does, so the entry is unread.
  • The in-game credits would settle it in one screen. Nobody here has finished the game, and no capture of the credits has been found that is readable rather than a video someone has to be trusted about.
  • If you have the credits open, that is a correction worth sending, and the contact route is on the site.
§03

Why a page that knows less is the more useful one here

It would take ten minutes to copy an English cast off an aggregator and publish a page that looks complete. The reason not to is that the reader arriving on `behind the voice actors` is already one hop from that database and does not need this site to relay it — what they cannot get anywhere is whether it is sourced. A cast list is exactly the kind of content that hardens into fact by repetition: one user submission becomes six articles, and the sixth cites the fifth. Publishing the gap is the only thing on this page a competitor could not have written, and it is the same reason `/cosmetics/` leads with the fact that nothing on it can be earned.

Beast of Reincarnation Voice Cast: What Was Actually Announced FAQ

Yui Ishikawa in Japanese — the publisher announced it in June 2026, and she also played 2B in Nier: Automata and Violet Evergarden. In English, no cast was ever officially announced; the name repeated across fan databases is Hanako Footman, which this site records as unverified.
