Six voice actors were chosen for the six heroines from a public audition that drew 1,864 applicants. Kana Sakura plays Taeko Adachi, Moeno Shiraki plays Asuka Hoshino, Noa Honda plays Rurika Yamamoto, Misa Segawa plays Miyuki Hosaka, Akari Yura plays Yu Nanase, and Yui Ninomiya plays Akira Endo. The theme song is SHAZNA's \"Melty Love -30th Anniversary ver.,\" a rearrangement of the band's 1997 debut single, co-produced by SHAZNA and guitarist Masaki Suzuki. It will be released as a digital single on January 1, 2027, with a music video on the same day. The remake of the 1998 Sega Saturn romance simulation keeps the original character settings, redraws all illustrations for a 16:9 aspect ratio, and renews the game system and UI. A merchandise package, Sentimental Graffiti Remake First Window, is set for January 2027.","whyItMatters":"The remake pairs a 1998 Saturn romance simulation with a theme song by a band from the same era, and both mark 30 years in 2027, which is the reason Entergram gives for the pairing.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe two projects share a calendar milestone. SHAZNA will mark 30 years since its debut in 2027, and Sentimental Graffiti will mark 30 years since the release of the pre-disc First Window in the same year. The band says the timing of that anniversary is part of why it accepted the offer, and the new version is co-produced with guitarist Masaki Suzuki, a former support member of SHAZNA whose work includes game and anime music.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSix other heroines already have their cast set: Honoka Sawatari, Emiru Nagakura, Wakana Ayasaki, Natsuho Morii, Manami Sugihara, and Chie Matsuoka, all played by voice actors from the same agency as in the original. The remake keeps the original character settings and basic scenario, with adjustments for the present day. The platforms named for the remake are Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5, and the release date is not yet announced. Sentimental Graffiti Remake First Window is a goods package of books and desktop accessories, not game software, planned for sale at game retailers nationwide, with advance sales at Entergram events in December.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTaeko Adachi\u003c/strong\u003e: played by Kana Sakura\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAsuka Hoshino\u003c/strong\u003e: played by Moeno Shiraki\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRurika Yamamoto\u003c/strong\u003e: played by Noa Honda\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMiyuki Hosaka\u003c/strong\u003e: played by Misa Segawa\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYu Nanase\u003c/strong\u003e: played by Akari Yura\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAkira Endo\u003c/strong\u003e: played by Yui Ninomiya\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e","blueskyPost":"SHAZNA's \"Melty Love -30th Anniversary ver.\" lands as a digital single on January 1, 2027, the same month Entergram ships the Sentimental Graffiti Remake First Window merchandise package.","twitterPost":"SHAZNA's \"Melty Love -30th Anniversary ver.\" arrives January 1, 2027, timed to the launch month of Entergram's Sentimental Graffiti Remake merchandise package.","threadsPost":"Sentimental Graffiti Remake picked its six heroines from 1,864 audition applicants, and Entergram booked SHAZNA's \"Melty Love -30th Anniversary ver.\" for a January 1, 2027 digital release, the same month the game's First Window merchandise package ships.","newsletterBlurb":"Entergram used Tokyo Game Show 2026 to name the six voice actors for Sentimental Graffiti Remake, chosen from 1,864 audition applicants.
