As an example of being influenced by a fellow cast member's performance during recording, Hayami named Ai Kayano, who voices Kanae Kocho. She revealed that when she stood next to Kayano during a recording session, "I felt Ai's unwavering resolve and inner strength. In that moment, I felt something like a fierce spirit coming from her, and it gave me chills," saying it had spurred her on. Sakurai spoke about Akira Ishida, who voices Akaza, praising the intensity of his performance: "There was the shift from Akaza to Hakuji, and I was also blown away by Akaza's inner monologue. The way his character was shaped, in a way that makes you sympathize with Akaza, owes a huge amount to what Ishida built up."
To close, Hayami said, "The battle is still ongoing, so please continue to support us," while Sakurai added, "I hope everyone will keep rewatching their favorite scenes and the moments that make their hearts race, and continue supporting Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba as the story goes on." With those messages, the event came to a close.
