Anime-Zing! KIDS
Voice actors take the stage for games, live dubbing and voice challenges!
Kids and adults join the fun as guest actors and the audience voice-over indie anime and feature local comic books in hilarious and unexpected ways. Every show is different with new guests stars and material daily.
Hosted by Tokyo-based voice actor Soness Stevens – known as the English voice of Hello Kitty (1999–2024), Time Crisis 5, Nintendo’s ARMS and Bomberman. She even voiced the worst video game ever!
A sold-out hit at Edinburgh Fringe 2025, where audiences said:

“Amazing show…very interactive and gave my son such a confidence boost.” – Audience review
“So much fun – the best show of the Fringe!” – Matthew

Move around or leave the venue as needed. Headphones, comforting sensory items and stimming welcome. Audience interaction encouraged but never required. Animations explained in advance to prepare audience for upcoming loud voices.
Presented by: Soness Stevens
Voice actor. Comedian. Possibly an appliance. You’ve heard Soness as Hello Kitty’s English voice (1999–2024), in Nintendo’s ARMS, Bomberman, Time Crisis 5, NHK World and Disney. She twice ruptured her Achilles in a sumo match (worth it), screamed “Take this!” 237 times in a booth, and accidentally trained AI to do her job...but she still does it better. A Tokyo-based comedian and storyteller for nearly 30 years, she created Anime-Zing! Game Show, a sold-out hit at Edinburgh Fringe 2025. Offstage, she interprets at Takasago Sumo Stable. As an AuDHD voice artist, she creates inclusive spaces. A 5-time TED speaker, she champions human creativity over AI mimicry of anime and art.
