Takuma Usa will appear in the public reading of Youkianyawa: Sono Tantei Hitoni Arazu on November 5. The performance will take place at the Makuhari International Training Center’s Symposium Hall.

The reading is based on the popular yokai detective novel written by Yuri Eda and illustrated by Asumiko Nakamura.

Iori Senzoku is a beautiful young tea ceremony master. He’s also an alien with the DNA of a yokai. With his quick thinking and mysterious powers, the police often rely on him to solve cases involving yokai, and his strange stories have become increasingly popular over the years thanks to Eda’s incredible writing.

The recitation will be written by Takahiro Nagase and directed by Akira Yamazaki.
