The official website for Collar X Malice -Okazaki Kei-hen- (Kei Okazaki Edition), the stage play centered on the character Kei Okazaki from Idea Factory's Collar X Malice visual novel, announced the main cast on Thursday.

As a young police officer tasked with restoring order, you become the target of an attack, and have a poisonous collar attached to your neck. With the situation spiraling out of control and time running out, five mysterious strangers appear to aid you in your quest for the truth. Who can you trust? Will you be able to save yourself and the soul of Shinjuku from the clutches of oblivion?
The Collar X Malice Unlimited fandisc — which included an interlude, sequel story, and three side stories — shipped for PlayStation Vita in Japan in July.
