Behind the Character: Voice Actor Introduces Us to Ryuji from Persona5 (VIDEO)
A little while back we introduced you to Persona5’s new character Ann with an interview from John Hardin, PR Manager, and the adorable Erika Harlacher who voices Ann in the game. In case you missed it before, Persona5 is the latest installment of a popular role-playing game (RPG) series by Altus. It comes out exclusively on PlayStation 4 in February of 2017. Today we at DFTG get to introduce you to voice actor Max Mittelman who voices the character Ryuji in the game.
Ryuji is part of the main cast in Persona5 and according to Max, his emotional switch is quick to flip. Ryuji can go from completely level headed to incredulously angry and because of this he provides a lot of the comic relief in the game. Mittelman says that Ryuji is one of his favorite characters to play and the voice comes naturally because he relates to Ryuji’s passionate nature. Max says that he went to the Anime Expo and even though Persona5 doesn’t come out for months still, there were already fans cosplaying as the characters from the game including one guy dressed as Ryuji himself. He also says that the fans love of the Persona games feeds his love of voice acting and reminds him that he is involved in something that so many people care about. Here is the video below of the interview from PR Manager John Hardin. Check it out:
