Dissolution of My Self Characters
Two people, too many roles, one apartment that cannot hold all of them.
Dissolution of My Self is a two-hander. Almost every memory you click out of the rented room is about Hector, Matvey, or the wreckage between them. This hub collects the public character facts—store bios, voice credits, FAQ statements—and points to the deeper pages so you do not have to reconstruct the relationship from achievement names.
Read Hector first if you want the prince who refuses to stay a person. Read Matvey first if you want the man who fled with him and now keeps the lights on as an unlicensed electrician. Credits and replay settings live on voice cast. If you want systems instead of people, go back to Guides.
The cast as the store presents it
Hector (CV: Netoru Irakusa)
Quote: “Your body is my only territory.” An exiled prince of a fallen kingdom, trapped in a rented apartment far from home. After losing identity, homeland, and future, he drags dependence, resentment, and love for Matvey into self-dissolution.
Matvey (CV: Tetsuto Furukawa)
Quote: “If you were nothing more than family to me, my child would be old enough to walk by now.” Hector’s uncle and aide-de-camp, who fled with him under an alias after the kingdom fell. He now supports their life as an unlicensed electrician. Hector treats him as subject, uncle, caregiver, wife, and mother all at once.
Those sentences are already a content warning. The Steam descriptors add self-harm, psychological manipulation, transgressive intimacy between relatives, regression, violence, substance misuse, and trauma. This hub will not sand that down.
Roles the story stacks on purpose
Official and press language keeps stacking jobs until the stack is the horror:
- Uncle and nephew (the FAQ says they absolutely are).
- King and vassal / sovereign and subject.
- Caretaker and patient.
- “Mommy” and manchild, in the store’s own phrasing.
- Aide-de-camp and fallen royalty hiding under aliases.
Matvey occupies care, loyalty, blood, and power at the same time. Hector occupies cruelty and need at the same time. Demo players called Hector a traumatized spoiled child and Matvey a mix of pathetic, mean, and monarchist—sometimes more royalist than the prince. Those are impressions, not datamined stats. They match the writing’s project: nobody here is a clean archetype.
Voice acting
The game is fully voiced in Japanese even if you read English or Simplified Chinese text. Credits called out in press:
- Netoru Irakusa (刺草ネトル) as Hector — also known for roles such as Azuma in Paradise and Seiji in Room No.9.
- Tetsuto Furukawa (古川徹人) as Matvey — previous work includes NO, THANK YOU!!!’s Haru and Japanese versions of Full Service characters.
Demo patches added voice replay and per-character voice volume because the performances are doing narrative work. If a joke feels like it came from hell, replay it. The studio uses that phrase on the store page on purpose.
How characters interact with systems
Hector’s state of mind filters every memory. Pills and choices change that filter. Click order changes which wound is open when he speaks. Neither system creates a third protagonist. There is no party screen. There is no romance route select that turns the bond healthy. The FAQ already said it does not think those relationships exist in this game.
Objects are character studies. The window is Hector’s exile. The television is the language barrier. Medicine is the treatment fork. Chairs are the stacked roles sitting down to eat. See room objects.
Reading order
- This hub, so the warnings are in your way.
- Hector.
- Matvey.
- Walkthrough if you need to go back to clicking.
- Review if you are deciding whether these two are a reason to buy or a reason to refund.
A characters hub for a live-service game would list rarity tiers. This one lists two people and too many names for what they do to each other. That is the correct amount of cast.
