Private Tutor to the Duke’s Daughter Anime Announces Four New Voice Cast Members
The ongoing summer 2025 TV anime Private Tutor to the Duke’s Daughter has officially unveiled four additional voice cast members set to appear starting with Episode 5 and beyond. The announcement was made on the anime’s official website and X (formerly Twitter) accounts on August 2, 2025. This enchanting fantasy series continues to capture attention with its deep character development, engaging storyline, and a growing ensemble cast voiced by noteworthy Japanese talent.
New Character Introductions and Their Voice Cast
The latest voice cast additions bring a dramatic mix of aristocratic intrigue and emotional depth, as each new character intertwines closely with protagonist Allen and the central Leinster family.
Lisa Leinster – Voiced by Ayako Kawasumi
Acclaimed voice actress Ayako Kawasumi, best known for her role as Saber in Fate/stay night, takes on the role of Lisa Leinster. Lisa is the formidable mother of Richard, Lydia, and Lynne, and essentially governs the powerful House of Leinster from behind the curtains. Although officially retired from active duty, she remains a spellcaster of exceptional prowess, able to unleash the high-level magic spell “Firebird” effortlessly. Lisa shares a deep bond with Allen, treating him as her own son, a result of her close friendship with Allen’s mother, Erin. Kawasumi’s regal yet emotionally nuanced performance adds new weight to the already dynamic familial relationships within the series.
Richard Leinster – Voiced by Tatsumaru Tachibana
Tatsumaru Tachibana, known for his role as Magoroku Inui in Fermat Kitchen, voices Richard Leinster, the eldest child and future Duke of the Leinster family. Though he often appears aloof in comparison to his exceptionally talented sisters, Richard is an influential leader in his own right. He commands respect as the head of the elite Imperial Guard. While he lacks access to the family’s legendary “Firebird” spell, he excels in both magical techniques and swordsmanship, making him a figure of quiet authority and underlying strength.
Anne – Voiced by Saya Horigome
Saya Horigome joins the cast as Anne, the devoted chief maid of the Leinster household. Responsible for managing the family’s daily operations, Anne is a skilled information gatherer who also possesses a playful side when it comes to Allen, often playfully teasing him. She shares a deep affection for Lydia and Lynne, frequently indulging in dressing them up and eliciting praise for them from Allen. Her vibrant yet competent presence injects lighter moments into the otherwise complex narrative.
Gerald Waynlight – Voiced by Toshiya Miyata
Member of the idol group Kis-My-Ft2, Toshiya Miyata voices Gerald Waynlight, a royal figure with a checkered past. Once second in line to the throne, Gerald was stripped of his succession rights due to a series of scandals. Despite holding the title of Prince, he remains a source of tension and controversy, frequently causing trouble for Allen and others. Miyata’s portrayal brings an engaging complexity to the character, adding further depth to the anime’s royal court storyline.
