Kasai Tomomi,member of AKB48 will be casting voice for Digimon Xros as Bastemon.With the return of Digimon to TV screens after a second three year absence, it seems like Toei is trying to do whatever they can to grab attention for it.

Though it’s more or less a slightly above average kiddy anime that no one would bat an eye towards after cancellation, Toei has tried all they can to keep it alive in the combined six years off air and two cancellations that the franchise has faced in the past.

So in an interesting move, AKB48 member Kasai Tomomi has been cast as the voice of the ancient princess Digimon, Bastemon. She will make her first apperance in a one hour special airing of episodes 10 and 11 on September 14th at 19:00 (UTC + 9). To anyone keeping score, this serves as the second link between Kamen Rider W and season six, same writer and an actress from the same show.
