Seven years after the release of the first game, the busty hyper-battle "Senran Kagura" anime series is gaining momentum with the second season of its TV anime series. The Shinobi Masters season kicks off with a total of 28 dancing ninjas, including girls from "Shijuku Gessen Girls' Academy," "National Hanzo Academy," "Hiratsu Hebi Girls' Academy," "Homura Guren-tai," and "Miko Kagura," as well as new characters from "Shinobi Master Senran Kagura NEW LINK."

The Gessen Sisters are half-sisters of Gekko (voiced by Riko Obara) and Senko (voiced by Akane Fujita), who appear in the Senran Kagura series. Appears in the app game "Shinobi Master Senran Kagura NEW LINK" and the TV anime "Senran Kagura SHINOVI MASTER -Tokyo Youma-hen-."
Overview
A second-year student in the middle school division of Gessen Girls' Academy, she is a junior to Yuzumi and the others. She is also a direct descendant of the Gessen family, the founders of Gessen Girls' Academy. She calls Yuzumi and the other selected members of Gessen "senpai." She addresses the mysterious ninja "Yukibuki" with the honorific "sama" and has secret conversations with him, suggesting that they have some kind of secret connection.
Shinobi Master
In the game "Shinobi Master," they belong to the organization that runs the Shinobi Masters, a ninja martial arts tournament for those striving to become the pinnacle of ninja excellence, the "Shinobi Master." Gekko is primarily in charge of the facility's purchasing department, while Senko is in charge of facility management. In the game, Gekko often causes trouble for Senko and teases her, but Senko always puts up with her. Meanwhile, Gekko also secretly worries about Senko. Despite being half-sisters, they seem to have a surprisingly good relationship.
The Gekko Sisters in the Game
As of November 2018, neither of them have yet been seen in a full-scale battle, so their true strengths are unknown. However, some people sense that despite being middle school ninja, they possess hidden abilities that rival those of the selected members of each school's high school division.

This will be my first appearance as Gekko in the anime. I actually watched the Senran Kagura anime in real time five years ago, so I feel truly honored to now be involved in the new work as a voice actor!! Gekko is always with Senko. She sometimes has a sadistic side and enjoys teasing the cool Senko, but is usually a gentle and cute older sister ^^ Please pay attention to the interactions between the two, and their relationship with fellow new character Yukibuki-san!

Senkou is always sleepy, but she behaves very coolly. She has a close relationship with Gekkou and adores Yukibuki. Since she's a character from the "Senran Kagura" app, this anime is the first time we'll see Senkou moving and talking! I'm looking forward to seeing how she interacts with everyone. I hope you'll all enjoy it too!

Shinobi Master Senran Kagura NEW I was first involved in the role of Yukifuki in "Senran Kagura LINK," and it was a new endeavor for me, so I'm thrilled to be able to play her in the anime! I'm looking forward to seeing how she interacts with Asuka, Yuzumi, and the others!
