"Shangri-La" is the original serialized by the monthly new type, and the novel is now being published at Kadokawa Bunko. Also, a comic is being developed in a boy's ace. In the near future where the new concept of carbon economy collapsed and a new concept of carbon economy occurred, the project to shift the Tokyo to forest by progress of global warming is progressing, while rich people live in the huge buildings, poor It is a story that people continue fighting in the jungle.

- How was the impression that the director read the original?

Different place:I was handed in to read this first, but I started from a place called "Are you reading this?" Which is a rather thick book with two rows in the upper and lower rows. As a comment that I read, it is a pretty tough story, is not it? There are lots of actions, and when asked if it can be made into images, it was a feeling that "Please chew as it is". However, I thought that there must be a unique way of animation, so I made it so far. Although there were some changes, I think that it could be made by drawing the original taste.

- Although I have talked about making it anime, I think that you can talk about something that must change, where the original and animation differ.

Different place:Although the stage itself of the work itself has not changed, for example, even if it is supposed to have 50 m of mochi to be used by Momoko, it is impossible for the length to be displayed in the video, which is impossible, there is also a direction which can not be said again There are also places. I am changing the place that the direction of the talk is difficult as it is in terms of picture. I do not change the character of the character that comes out at all, I make it to visualize interesting places of the original.

I would like to ask about the introduction of characters playing to cast people and the enthusiasm for making roles. First of all, Takahashi, please.

Takahashi:Hokujo Koko is a girl that everyone is watching at the illustration once, but Renji Murata is dressed in a pink hair in a sailor suit. The word "bright and healthy" is a perfect character as it has a high physical ability and always knocks down or fights enemies with a large boomerang. What I was careful about when I was auditioning was told by director and acoustic director at the stage where I received an audition, "I wish I could do it straight", so if I go straight ahead the way I believed is Kuniko Believing that it will be a character, we are advancing dubbing. While I'm doing, I want to be conscious of not only being straight, but as a guerrilla leader as well as the ability to pull a person at the ends of her lines. I gradually became aware of it in dubbing that it has an amiable aspect for Momoko instead of her mother in Okama characters.

- The first impression is an image of wielding the boomerang and it is active, but there is a part of being amusing and there is a face as a leader led by the organization of metal age. Are you enjoying watching the video as to how this is playing?

Takahashi:Yes, I am trying hard to think that I have to push through anyway.

- Please continue on Mr. Arua and Mikuni.

Arua:Mr. Mino is an odd eye, and the feeling that he is a small girl with total gray hair is a wonderful mysterious child. Unlike ordinary people living on the ground, it is an upper class and a privileged class so I live in a place like a high-rise near future building. The feeling I saw was pretty and cute and it is nice to say, but in reality it has a terrible horrible aspect ... .... It is the fear of pureness, it has the power of a mystery, I also have a dark side that will make me scary eyes. What I thought about playing is nobility, but it is a place I want to appreciate. I think that parents are dead, but there are parts that are very independent and I think that it is a dense Yui character who has a lot of antithesis inside of me. Since it is not a character that I think as it is as a word, it is still in trial and error that I'm still on the way to ride the expression, and that is an interesting place.

- Although it is known by those who are reading the original that Mikuni possesses a great ability, people who have not read it think that it is shocking to see the video, so let's face down here We will do. Next, Mr. Ishii of Kusanagi role, please.

Ishii:Kusanagi is a character that is in a hostile relationship with Kokko, he is a soldier (lieutenant) but pushed the tightly-turned face to the front, but in reality it is a naive young man, He is a young man. Unlike Mr. Mikado, because it is a person who can talk about what he thought, a person who can move forward with his own belief, he is a character that is performing as himself and is rewarding. Kuniko is tough as opposed to being a soldier, so there is justice in myself, but what you want to do is a character that is sticking firmly thinking firmly. I want to put out such a tight spot as myself, but I would like to hit characters as a challenge so that inside can be a honest man and a kind of a play that will smell a place like a simple nursery.

In Shangri-La, which has a high g / g ratio, it is one of the few male characters, and moreover, I think that it is difficult to do and it is difficult to do. At least I think that it is the most decent character among the four characters (in the stage).

Ishii:No, no I can not say that (laugh)

- Thank you very much. Thank you Mr. Yuka Iguchi about Ishida Kaori.

Iguchi:Kaoru is a ten-year-old girl living in a skyscraper in the forested Tokyo of Atlas. I am a very smart child, graduating from college with a skill class, I am enjoying making money with my college friends using a fantastic thing that fiddles the carbon called Medusa. I am 10 years old, a child who has the idea that "money is more important than anything", it is an impression that he is much more awake than an ordinary girl. When I play it, my facial expressions are also awake and my remarks are also awake. If I play it thinking that there is a little cuteness in it, I will ask the acoustic director "I will not be conscious of childhood, Please be aware that you are conscious ". Even in the word "ya ye", the 10-year old girl consciously thinks that it is a woman who is a money-first girl who has a different viewpoint for the public rather than expressing delightfully .

- When listening only here, I can hear a girl who is unpleasant for those who do not know the work (lol) Actually, I have reason to have money collecting properly, but this was actually the work I saw I think whether it is better. Well, it is a dubbing site where all of you are gathering, what kind of atmosphere is it like?

Different place:(Shangri-La) has a different content from the so-called Moe animation series, so we asked the sound director "I am at a loss for some people who are good at playing, or honestly this time" , We had a lot of veteran people put in, and those who are here (stage) are getting in because they are people who can play. There was a fear of being divided between young people and experienced people, but it is unexpectedly mixed, and as long as you are watching from the mixer room (adjustment room) it is a warm atmosphere. Because there are so many people, it is lively every time.

- There are a lot of characters every time.

Different place:Well, more than 10 people each time ... ... Gaya, it is a feeling that it goes around the studio when people including A, B, C of metal age also enter. It's easy when you take Gaya, but if you signal "Please Gaya" it will make a fuss. Although there was some anxiety about how many people will become so many people, it seems not to be as long as you are looking at ... but how is it, Mr. Takahashi, as a person inside.

Takahashi:As a human being ...... Uh, why did you? (Lol)

(All lol)

Takahashi:On the dubbing scene, I got along well with each other. Because it is a job site, it is not like a club activities like capi camp but it is better to have a feeling of tension because the atmosphere of the work depicts the world of being lively or dying rather than everyday. I thought. I do not feel like chatting with anyone, but since there are a lot of experienced actors, I am thinking that I am very happy and happy. I think that it is a very exciting and grateful environment because it seems that there is not much in the recent work that dubbing is surrounded by people of such a great obsession.

- Well, there are a lot of experienced people.

Takahashi:Kyoda (Naoko) is there next to me and I am doing excitingly.

- I would like to ask questions like Shangri - La here. "Shangri-La" is a jungle that Tokyo made while staging. So, the question is, what do you do if you live in a suddenly dense forest on one day, but how is it, supervising.

Different place:The surroundings of the Duomo community in which the Kokko live is a tremendous dense forest, and unlike in the present day cicadas will not cry, the mysterious South Korean birds singing Well, I guess it is a bit subtropical ... ... I think I want to live by building a house on a tree like a huckleberry and watching a mysterious bird.

- As I adapt normally. What about Takahashi-san?

Takahashi:I am very glad to go out for an exploration.

- Do you like jungle?

Takahashi:Imagine, if an amazing jungle had spread in Tokyo ... ... Do not you feel very happy, only me? Usually, it is worrisome that the air is in the city, there are wild birds that have never been surrounded by forests. There are some scary parts, but how fun it seems.

Arua:It is a wonderful plus thinking, it is wonderful.

Takahashi:that? Wrong?

- How is Mr. Ariga? Although it is said to be a jungle, although I think that one who reads the original is understood, it is a tremendous natural that people will flow and die each time a squall comes.

Arua:When I awoke, I thought "Oh, it is a dream," slept once more (laugh). I woke up and slept, repeatedly felt uncomfortable in the body and was shocked as "Oh ~, this is reality", look for a cat saying "Where is my cat?"

Ishii:Cats are supposed to have escaped.

Arua:Yes, I ran away.

Takahashi:You keep it.

Arua:I have it. Because it is a cash cat, I'm surely running away somewhere.

- Oh, it is wild.

Arua:I'm getting wild.

- Thank you very much. How about Ishii-san?

Ishii:Because I can not absolutely optimistic about that, I have to explore everything around me and see if there is anything I can eat, or if there is someone else. It is scary if you do not search first.

- How exactly did Kusanagi 's opinion come out? How about Mr. Iguchi?

Iguchi:Wow, that's horrible. I thought Mikako 's opinion was amazing. Because I think that I read that it is a big thing when it comes to the jungle on the scale of Tokyo, I escape to the countryside for the time being, and I want to go to a safe place safely. I will lose what grows in front of me, and will escape without pretending if I grow up again. Seeking whereabouts. So, when I meet Mikako during that process I will follow (laugh) piggybacking.

Takahashi:follow me!

I think that I would like to ask another one like Shangri - La in another. It is the carbon boomerang which comes out as a key item of the work, it is Konko's item. This was falling. Please let me know if there is a thing you want to cut or a partner you want to fight, although there is a case, Mr. Bikko does not give too much personal name (lol)

Different place:It's a schedule that I want to cut off for the time being is getting rid of me. I want to cut the schedule and increase it a bit. Although it is pretty ruthless and it will not be shabby.

- What is Takahashi - san, what you want to cut off.

Takahashi:Er ... Anyhow anything is wrong (laugh), but for the time being anything that I want to cut anything, I want to try to cut off Mt. Fuji or the like cleanly.

Is it a big scale calendar?

Takahashi:I would like to do sparring as Apollo chocolate is split in half.

- The size is totally different, it is a great head (lol)

Takahashi:Something like that, I want to be clearer. It can be a big building or a big site, but it is sparring.

- Oh, she seems to be Kuniko. I think it's a good opinion.

Takahashi:I would like to try cutting a big item anyway.

- Actually, even in the original, in the second half I will cut the tank. How is it, Aka?

Arua:Although I can not cut Mt. Fuji as expected, I'd like to drop a fruit botanically by cutting a peach or a strawberry field a bit technical. And I want to eat delicious delicious.

How about Ishii-san, I'm with Pocahn in the side.

Ishii:You can cut whatever ... ... It looks like a similar thing, but I'd like to try to make the scenery spreading in front straight.

Iguchi:Everyone, it is a destructive system.

- How is Mr. Iguchi?

Iguchi:Using a boomerang ...... Looking up at the thought of what I should do now, there are lots of "exits" and "GONZO" (balloons), so I'd like to drop that. Sit down.

- It is a production company (haha)

Iguchi:I'm sorry, (laugh)

For now, I'd like to try cutting big ones that I can see.

Iguchi:I agree.

- I understood well. That's why I talked about Shangri-Lappy, but I heard that OP Anime for Shangri-La became the first public release here in Japan, so I think I will only show it to everyone who is here this time.

OP screening. The photograph was taken when the second opening screening was done after the event was finished, and I was staring at the casting team to devour them.


- Yes, that is. It is cool.

Takahashi:Cool, he stood on a goosek.

- This is amazing, is not it ...? I'd like to ask you a bit about impressions here, but how about you, Mr. Takahashi?

Takahashi:I felt tearful, I never thought that Kokko was rampantly expressing with expression. I was deeply moved.

- I am only saying "Amazing, amazing", but how is it, Mr. Arua.

Arua:I was really cool and I first saw the ground that grew green with Konoko behind me, but the sense of realism was transmitted as "This is getting it, Tokyo!"

- Even the familiar buildings were covered with green, did not they? Mr. Ishii, I'm excited.

Ishii:I'm sorry, (Mr. Iguchi) is gone.

Iguchi:I am sorry, I have been here forever. It was amazing.

- How is it, being taken a look.

Ishii:First of all, the character "Shangri-La" is characteristic. I was out on the script, but with the color I guess it is amazing again.

- By the way it is designed by Mr. Shingori Higuchi.

Ishii:With a little artistic feeling. I hope the landscape that I have seen has been covered with forests and it will be video.

- It is much more than just familiar buildings.

Ishii:Yes, it was shocking.

- How is Mr. Iguchi?

Iguchi:Yes, that wonderful touching ... ....

Ishii:I have not seen it!

Iguchi:I was watching with you guys (lol)

Ishii:Even now, you said "What kind of image was it?" With the bossots (laugh)

Iguchi:Something was moving so much that I thought it could be seen every week ...

Takahashi:(Lol)

Ishii:That's what I said (laugh)

Iguchi:The character called Shangri-La is ...

Ishii:I said, now (haha)

Iguchi:It's exciting and exciting from the opening that we can see it as an opening every week ... Why are you laughing so much?

Takahashi:No, it does not have persuasive power (lol) Hiroka-chan watching the opening at the other one in the main part.

Iguchi:On air, this is it! What.

- Please look carefully (laugh).

Iguchi:Yes, I am sorry.

I think that everyone was watching eyes on the video, but the songs were flowing right? Here comes May'n singing this opening song 'Kimi Shinita Moe Kotonakare'.

(May'n appeared)

May'n:Hello, it is May'n.

- Have you seen the opening of May'n?

May'n:Yes, I have seen it before. There is also a sense of sprint with the view of the world "Shangri-La" appearing, I am looking forward to the main part. The respiration when singing matches the image, and Higuchi (Shinji) may be breathing when singing? I thought. I feel the air matches the music.

- The word fans sense is perfect. As the name of the song is "Kimi sinita mo kotonakare", it is quite meaningful title, but what sort of thought are you singing?

May'n:I wanted to convey the message that "I do not live" or "I will die" as a message. I could sing with such feelings that I could be happy with the characters Kogoko, Momoko and other people's thoughts if we could not fight, but we must fight to protect everyone.

- Because there is a director at all, please have a request to "Please make this a work of such an atmosphere".

May'n:Any kind of feeling is okay?

Different place:What?

- I think that surely it will be OK.

May'n:I like Miko 's character, it is a very cute okay but I think that I want a moment to look a little more pretty.

Is that what you mean, but how about you?

Different place:……Huh? (Lol)

- How about you, even if you are cute at present?

Different place:It is subtle when it is said whether it is cute or not (laugh). After becoming a person of Buddhist attendant after this, I am going to be a kimono figure, I do not know how much I can put out the part of cuteness, but if I could give out the cuteness of thinking like a child like Miko's mother.

I just got Miko, but there is another one, a new - half character, Momoko. It seems like a set with Momoko and Miko, but I'm daring to sing voice actor about this shemale character. Looking at the staff roll of the first episode, it is supposed that the name of the cast is hidden by the heart marks only for the two people. Does that person say such a voice? It is planned to have a secret cast, and viewers wish to participate in voice quizzes quizzes, so please visit the official website in detail. So, as I am impatient, I would like to continue the coarse swing time to the director, and I would like you to give some tips on voice actors while explaining what kind of characters Miko and Momoko are.

Different place:Momoko is a setting called Mom who is doing a new-half bar "tropical fish" in Roppongi. She is a man because she is a new guy. It is a person who can properly put out things like mother's kindness and motherly love to Kokko while thinking about a person strong enough to take gold medal in judo. Miko is also not so much when you are in the Duomo, but it is a character that awakens as it is a pleasure to love children who have never existed since meeting Mikon. The hint is ... ... It is hard to say. The conclusion that I thought was "There is something like the size of things in my name."

Is it like the size of a mono, say "big" or "small"?

Different place:"Medium", "Great Amusement" or "Ultra". This is Gili.

- In fact it means that you have watched the on air.

Different place:I think that the office was well ok although the name did not come out with telop. I was excited, but I think that it is something that is fell down so you may expect it.

What about the voice actor who plays Meeko?

Different place:Hint ... ... the same, is not it?

A voice actor who plays a minuscule also has something in its name that shows its size.

Takahashi:It is said that it is said

Different place:It is just a bit of a story that I squeezed out with a lot of story

- I think that this hint will be useful when the candidate is raised as actually seeing the air and listening to the voice and saying "This person or this person?" I really want to listen and hit it. If you know the correct answer, please join from the official page. It seems to be "special standby" for correct answers and "wonderful voice message" to all applicants.

Takahashi:Who is it?

- Who is it, is not it? Because the Okama character is a quiz that gives someone ... ... Please join us. It is a little announcement time from here. Broadcasting starts from April 5th (Sunday). The broadcasting station starts with 4/5 Tibatelebi and Tereball at Tibate TV, TV Saitama, KBS Kyoto, TV Kanagawa, TOKYO MX, Sun TV, TV Aichi, TVQ Kyushu Broadcasting, TV Hokkaido. Free distribution on the Internet also starts from 4/10. In addition, the web preliminary pre-screening sessions ahead of the main story are also carried out. And furthermore, May 's singing "Kimi Shinita Moe Kotonakare" that was flowing earlier will be released on May 6. Please do check on everyone.

May'n:Please.

- Finally, please give your enthusiasm for the future one word at a time

Different place:This time it is the first director, I came here with a lot of anxiety about how far I can do, I am satisfied with my own talent and thinking about it properly, so I'd like to expect you to look forward to it.

Takahashi:Kokko is betting on the role of Kokko, like Kuniko is sure to hit 100% of his feelings and get around to body, surely Kuniko's ending will change himself, so last I wish I could run through. Also, this year is my 10th anniversary of my voice actor's debut, so I think that I could meet this role is something of a relationship, so I'm enthralled. I will do my best so please check it.

Arua:I am very happy because this is the first domestic animation regular. I work hard on a serious and proper basis. Besides that, I'd like to take pictures with a good atmosphere with everyone, peacefully and sometimes spicy.

Ishii:Unlike Mr. Miyuki, it is high tension, is not Mr. Ariga.

Arua:No such thing.

Ishii:No, no, I also want to go high tension, I believe that the work itself is rich in personality, each picture, landscape, characters that jump into my eyes. In the story dubbed for the first episode, our seniors were a scene of struggling to make quite a few characters due to their unique character. As I am watching it I am thinking that I have to study more, so please work together.

Iguchi:It is the last person in the production process of animation to put our voices, but I am very happy that there are many people who look forward to on air like this. Although the role of Kaoru is such a role that I have never done before, I think that I would like to do something I do at the scene every time and see my senior performances and learn a lot of things Please look forward to the broadcast.

May'n:I am thinking that it is animation that the world view often appears even if I read the original after reading tour of Shangri-La's dubbing. Everyone's sense of unity is amazing and I am delighted to be able to participate in this wonderful scene in the form of a theme song. Although it is a story of the world of animation, it is not just a fictional story, but perhaps there are circumstances like this in reality, it may be their future. I am able to participate in the work of the theme that there is not much in such animation so much, not only is it just a battle or "strong" but I am looking forward to the human part so much, Please also look forward to.

- Thank you very much for today.
