Shizuka Itō found Lenalee striking both in terms of personality and design and thus wanted to properly voice the character when receiving the news she was being cast. Hoshino joked that Lenalee seemed more beautiful after she saw Itō's work. For the sequel D.Gray-man Hallow, the cast was replaced. Hoshino was surprised by the acting of Japanese actors Ayumu Murase (Allen) and Yutaka Aoyama (Millennium Earl) because they managed to bring out different sides of the characters not seen previously. Murase said he had positive thoughts about his work, hoping it would appeal to the audience. During recordings of Hallow, Hoshino was surprised by Murase's work, finding him suitable for Allen. Murase's switching between two personalities—Allen and the Nea D. Campbell—impressed the manga author, who thought at first Murase was using a machine to change the tone of them. Although Murase only appeared with the Millennium Earl twice in Hallow, his job left a positive impression. During a broadcast of Hallow, Hoshino made multiple illustrations of Allen interacting with the Noah clan to support the actors. Murase was moved by Hoshino's determination to develop Allen in the manga and thus felt a better impression of his character. Aoyama's work received praise by Hoshino due to the fact he has to perform both sides of the Earl: the free-spirited clown-looking like character and the mourning human self who is determined to recover his brother, Nea. Aoyama was surprised by the Hoshino's comments stating he did not understand her overwhelming reaction. Aoyama also felt that playing the Earl's human form was difficult due to how different he behaves in that appearance to the point of being one of the hardest character to voice. Protagonists Allen Walker is a warm-hearted 15-year-old British Exorcist and the series' main protagonist. He turned his adoptive father, Mana Walker, into an Akuma (demon). During this incident, Allen's left eye was cursed by his father, granting him the ability to see the souls of Akuma, and his left arm awoke as an anti-Akuma weapon. Allen is revealed to be the 14th Noah, Nea, and will eventually be taken over by Nea's consciousness and become a Noah. As a result, Allen is looked at with suspicion and eventually confined. Allen was voiced by Sanae Kobayashi and by Ayumu Murase in D.Gray-man Hallow in Japanese. He is voiced by Todd Haberkorn in English. Lenalee Lee is a teenage Exorcist from
