Comments
Voice actress/Singer Miho Okasaki commented about their thoughts about the announcement of Visions of Coleus.

"I am pleased to announce that I will be in charge of the ending theme song for Visions of Coleus. My name is Miho Okazaki. When I first heard about the project, I was just like, "A dream!" That's how I felt about it... It has been about five years since I first met Rimuru, and I feel every day that Tensura is loved by everyone. My role as Rimuru has been an essential part of my life as a voice actor. I would like to deliver the scenery I saw and felt from there, along with the view of world. I look forward to working with you!"
