Blue Exorcist's Jun Fukuyama Whips Up Beauty Advice via Smart Mirror

posted on by Lynzee Loveridge

Last week, the Smart Mirror “novera” introduced Yūki Kaji as the voice actor behind the product's Yuki Takano character. Kaji will voices the "fastidious and standoffish spacial designer" that Smart Mirror users can interact with while also receiving make-up advice.

The Smart Mirror device resembles a regular mirror but is equipped with an electronic display, a voice controlled interface, and other technological features. The novera Smart Mirror will be equipped with sensors that can perceive the state of your skin. Based on how it reads your skin, it can offer roughly 100 choices of makeup, prescribed by professional makeup artists.

Kaji's character was the first revealed for the device but he isn't the last. Jun Fukuyama signed on to voice the character Yutaka Sudō, an emotionally honest pastry chef who is often persuaded by the feelings of those around him.

Novera shared a video on Twitter showing a staff member interacting with Fukuyama's character.

Fukuyama is best known for his roles as Yukio Okumura in Blue Exorcist, Koro-sensei in Assassination Classroom, Grelle Sutcliff in Black Butler, and Ren Amamiya in PERSONA 5 the Animation.

The novera Smart Mirror will go on sale in 2019. Pre-orders for the Smart Mirror will be available “soon.” novera inc. will announce another participating voice actor in the lead up to the Smart Mirror's release.
