It's not every day someone takes pride in being called 'horrific' — but when voicing a ruthless character like Rachel from the Tower of God anime franchise, you learn to expect and even appreciate these harsh blows.

Seiyuu (voice actor in Japanese) Saori Hayami shared what it's like to give voice to Rachel, a character who evokes many mixed feelings in the Tower of God (ToG) fandom in a recent interview with AsiaOne at Anime Festival Asia on Nov 30 at the Suntec City Convention & Exhibition Centre.

Hayami is famed for roles such as Yor Forger in Spy x Family, Shinoa Hiragi in Seraph of the End and Kamisato Ayaka in Genshin Impact, and also has about 17 years of experience as a voice actress.

ToG revolves around a mysterious tower that promises to grant the deepest desires of those who reach the top — where everything in the world can be yours and where one can become a god.
