Kana Hanaishi is confirmed in two upcoming voice roles: Miyo in the 11th Blue Archive ASMR volume, out July 27, and Aoba Kira in Acacia's Magical Girl Norin Village, set for release this year. Neither work has launched.
Kana Hanaishi's two most recent credits are both announced voice roles in works that have not yet been released. The earlier of the two is the 11th Blue Archive ASMR volume, "It's Sensei's Fault, You Know? (Miyo ASMR)," which Yostar will release on July 27 at 0:00 JST. The announcement came during the Blue Archive 5.5th Anniversary Live Broadcast on July 26. Hanaishi voices Miyo in that volume, alongside Atsumi Tanezaki as Seia in the 10th volume, "Sun, Moon, Words, and You (Seia ASMR)," which releases on the same date.
The later announcement moves Hanaishi into a different kind of role. Acacia has cast her as Aoba Kira in Magical Girl Norin Village, a magical girl suspense game set for release this year on Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam. Kira is described as a girl locked in the village's underground dungeon for a long time, forgotten by everyone, without developed reason or language and said to be in a mental state like an infant, while carrying strong murderous intent and dangerous magic.
Across both stories the pattern is consistent: Hanaishi is attached to announced projects, one in an ongoing audio series with a fixed release date and one in a game whose release window is only given as this year. The Blue Archive volume has a confirmed date, a confirmed character, and a confirmed publisher in Yostar. The Norin Village role has a confirmed character, a confirmed developer in Acacia, and confirmed platforms. Neither story states a release date for Norin Village beyond this year, and neither reports any further Hanaishi roles.
