Before the performers were on stage on stage, a video produced to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Bonds was screened. Then had appeared on stage, familiar Bonds of Masahiko Minami and Mr., TV anime ' mob psycho 100 played a' mob 'that the hero of Shigeo Kageyama in' Ito Fushisei and I, played the heroine of Takamine bud Uki Satake It was three of. Minami says that he has caught a walk around there.



The first term of Mob Psycho 100, in which two guests are in charge of voice actors, was broadcasted in 2016. The second term was broadcast from January to April 2019. It is the first experience to play a leading role in a 30-minute regular animation work, and it was almost like a debut film, so at first it was 'a cat that I borrowed.' Mr. Satake also stated that 'I had a very tense image' of the impression of Mr. Ito at the time, and it was revealed that Mr. Ito was in fact too nervous to go to bed each time before the dubbing.

Takumi Takabuchi, played by Mr. Samu, is a cute but sloppy character who seems to have a part to admire as a girl. In addition, it seems that he likes the words in the last of the two episodes and one episode very much, and that I felt the original love of Yo Tachikawa .

Mr. Satake plays QT in ' Space ☆ Dandy ', which is famous for Machi ★ Asobi, and is also in charge of the role of Idea of Ponkkosbot in ' Carroll & Tuesdays ', the Bonds work currently being aired. This idea seems to be a character reminiscent of Space ☆ Dandy's QT, but since QT itself also appears in a single scene of Carol & Tuesday's day, please look for someone who cares about it.

In addition, Mob Psycho 100 is also decided to produce OVA, and B's B studio is earnestly producing.

Mr. Ito, who plays the role of Mob, loves Bonds in ' Symphonic Poem Eureka Seven ', and also chose AIR AGENCY , a voice agency, to which he belongs, Keiji Fujiwara , Managing Director, plays Holland Novak Say that there was an impact.

Then, the story that 'Mob is a difficult part, isn't it?' It seems that Mr. Ito did not feel that Mob was a difficult character to play during the first phase of ARBC. The reason is that only that performance could be done. However, after gaining various experiences after the 1st period, when I challenged the 2nd period after recording, it seems that 'Mob is difficult' for the first time there. While there were staff and voice actors who felt that Ito-san's performance was good even in the field, “But I'm going to be a mob?” And the strange situation where the mob character is lost due to the overgrowth effect It revealed that I had fallen. Mr. Ito also appeared on the stage of Mob Psycho 100 with the role of Mob, so the performance changed dramatically through such plays.

Mr. Satake is also supposed to appear on the stage of 2.5 dimensional system, and it is said that appearance on the stage Aoashi has been decided. Mr. Satake is also clear that Mr. Minami was able to only play ponkotsu robots, so he watched the stage and was told that he should do his best to play live.



The work of the stage and the work of the voice actor have the same underlying part of 'performance', so if they appear, they can also be a trigger to change their own performance. Hearing the growth story of such voice actors, Mr. Minami told me that it would be nice if acting was growing when I met at work for a long time.

Then about Bonds work. Mr. Minami commented, 'Why I like it?', Saying that girls' pants don't appear much in Bonds works. The reason is 'I don't know how to make such animations', and Minami was originally raised at Sunrise in the production of hard work such as Gundam, Bottoms and Dagram, so he is not good at making such animations. I made it clear.

At Bons headed by such Mr. Minami, about 70 employees are currently working, and it is said that they are divided into five studios called A, B, C, D, and E to produce animation.

Carroll & Tuesdays are producing at A studio. Mr. Minami says 'Smoothly watched nice animation'. It is also distributed on Netflix, so say 'look by all means'.

Mob Psycho 100 is produced in B studio. This work is also decided to produce OVA, it is also a work that guest Ito and Satake appeared.

What is produced in C Studio is the TV anime ' My Hero Academia ', for which the fourth term broadcast has been decided from October 2019.

And E-studio is in charge of the symphonic poem Eureka Seven. Although I can not announce the details yet, the movie 'Symphonic Poem 篇 Eureka Seven High Evolution' is a trilogy, so I hope to see the third film too.

In addition, “ Hisune and Masotan ”, which was broadcasted in 2018 and won the 22nd Japan Media Arts Festival Animation Category Excellence Award, will be officially screened at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival in June 2019. It has been decided, and it is scheduled to hold a talk event on the spot with Hiroshi Kobayashi.

In addition, Bons announced a comprehensive business alliance with the US video distribution service Netflix with Production IG in January 2018, and related projects include Americans such as ' Kick Ass ' and 'Kingsman'・ It has been announced that the cartoon called 'Super Krux' by the original author of the comics, Mark Miller , is produced as an animation series.

In addition, a huge project was launched for 2020, and it was not planned as an extension of TV animation, but a completely original theater work was being planned.

◆ How is the plan of animation decided?
Then, about how the plan of animation was decided, when it mentions the past work, it became a flow that Mr. Minami talks about the production background.

When I asked the venue, 'What kind of animation do you want to hear about the details of the project?', The first one mentioned was ' Laserphone ' broadcasted in 2002.

Laserphone is a work directed by Yutaka Dejima, who designed the Gundam series and Patlabor mechanics. Mr. Dejima likes the world view of ' Brave Raideen ', and it seems that a work called Lathephone was born because it was a fantastic robot that followed it. In addition, it was said that it became 2 cool because it was an original animation boom at that time.

Next was the TV anime ' Alchemist of Steel ' which started broadcasting in 2003. The work is based on the cartoon of the same name published in Square Enix's 'Monthly Shonen Gangan'. The plan was that it was interesting that Yoshiyuki Ito, who was in charge of character design, 'purchased a cover' would make it interesting to say 'Would you like to animate?' In addition, it seems that at the time there were only 2 volumes. A full metal alchemist is a fantasy work, but it is a work with pain, and it is a perfect work that can express both 'action' and 'drama depth' that Bons specializes in. At that time, I had never worked with Square Enix, so I consulted in a dive and started planning with a ton beat from there. After that, we were able to receive the same Saturday evening 6 o'clock animation frame as 'Mobile Suit Gundam SEED' from the daily broadcast. The Bonds at that time had only two studios, studio A and studio B, and the TV anime version 'Fullmetal Alchemist' was decided, and it was decided to make a studio C suddenly.

And about the TV anime ' Fullmetal Alchemist ' which was broadcasted in 2009. This anime project started when the final episode of the original manga appeared. And, at the timing when production was decided, Bonds added a studio again, and it seems that D studio was born.

Then, about the movie ' Strendia ' released in 2007. The big hit of the unmarked steel alchemist made it possible to 'make something you like!' And to produce Strendia. It seems that original works for the theater did not easily exist at the time, but with the intention of creating interesting works with director Ando Mayu , the theater version of “The period drama” was boldly taking advantage of places where fantasy is likely to be selected It is said that. It is a highly acclaimed piece of work overseas, and there are a distribution version and a package version, so 'look by all means'.

The project for “ Space ☆ Dandy ”, a popular TV anime by Machi Asobi, is closely related to Shinichiro Watanabe, who served as general director. There are various genres of animation, and popular genres have especially many competitions. Watanabe said that he thought, 'Can you draw more things in animation?', And there was an idea to create something different from the one being broadcast now. What everyone expects is something like ' cowboy bibop ', 'I hate it', and even 'like Apollo on a hillside ' and ' telephone of reverberation ' which Watanabe was in charge hate, was born in such a thing There seems to be space ☆ Dandy. Watanabe is good to show in the picture, 'I think that it is the best in Japan if you use music,' said Mr. Minami. Space ☆ Dandy seems to have become a form that can collaborate with various artists and creators by trying to make a frame that can freely create works for such Watanabe director.

Space ☆ Dandy has held many events in Machi ★ Asobi.

The TV anime ' HEROMAN ', released in 2010, is said to have been talked to Bonds that Stan Lee, a heavyweight of Marvel Comics, wanted to create a work in collaboration with Japanese animation. “I want to meet you!” I went to Los Angeles, and in a meeting, there was a part where Stan Lee wanted to do “Hero things” and “Child and robot things” from his childhood, and there was a part that stuck himself to the hero things. , It was a wonderful work.

The TV anime ' DARKER THAN BLACK-Subscribers of Black ', broadcasted in 2007, is a work that was created not by Mr. Minami but by Producer Hirohiro Oguchi 'I want to do my own original'. Mr. Ohori had said that he wanted to do original work from the time of ' WOLF'S RAIN ', which was produced by teaming with director Okamura Tensai, and Mr. Minami, who received the plan book, seems to have made a business trip to everyone.

In recent years there has been an increasing number of cases in which Japanese animation works are converted to live-action films, but in Bonds works, it seems that voices often come to original products such as 'Strendia' and 'DARKER THAN BLACK-Contractor of Black'. .
