豊永利行さん『ディア▼ヴォーカリスト Evolve』収録後インタビュー到着「今回もモモチくんと貴女の関係性は凄いことになっていきます」

豊永利行『ディアヴォーカリスト』アルバム発売記念インタビュー「スリルある体験を、モモチくんで感じていただけたら幸いです♪」

2019.11.20 <PASH! PLUS>

An interview with Toshiyuki Toyonaga, following the recording of "Dear Vocalist Evolve".

q: While this is the 5th drama CD featuring the character, were there any new discoveries about the character or scenes/lines of dialogue that made you think they had evolved?

a: With Momochi-kun, that’s always the case, but the process of his evolution and the results are surprising… or how should I put it, they often go beyond what is normal.

Rather than pinpointing specific moments, it's more like, throughout the whole thing, you're left with a feeling of "ehhh... this is how it ends up???”.

q: Regarding the new song, please give your thoughts. (Were there any lyrics or melodies that you found appealing or touching? Any points to recommend or highlights to listen for?)

a: It might sound like a return to the roots, but personally, I wondered what exactly those 'roots' are. That was the impression I got from the song. "Guren Shinjuu" is just... exhausting, you know (laughs). And as for "V", well... considering Momochi's state of mind, I can't listen to it as an upbeat song with a clear conscience (laughs).

q: Lastly, please give a message to the readers.

a: This time too, the relationship between you and Momochi-kun will become even more amazing. However, for those who have been following the drama so far, won’t new sensations or emotions start to arise? Will it be something that can be dismissed with "it can't be helped"? Is that feeling one of "sympathy"? Or is it "empathy"? It might be a work that measures your heart. Enjoy it ♪

The first band album series "Raving Beats!!!" by Dear Vocalist, which celebrated its 5th anniversary in August 2020, has been decided for release. Unlike the previous joint best album series "Rock Out!!!" featuring all bands, this series will release albums separately for each band.

q: Please share your thoughts on the new song this time. Also, as this is the first band album series, please give us your thoughts on that as well.

a: Somehow, when it’s a Veronica-only album, you can really see Momochi's emotions clearly… or rather, at this point, isn’t he like a child who is easy to understand? (laughs)

The selection of songs was decided by Cheers' votes, so it became a very meaningful album that shows what Cheers are looking for.

I hope Momo-chan will use it as reference for making future songs ♪

The new songs are definitely daring, with three songs that are bitter, poignant, deceitful, sad, but you can feel the soul in them.

q: “Dear♥︎Vocalist" celebrated its 5th anniversary in August 2020. If there was anything that left an impression on you so far, or if you have any expectations for future developments, please let us know.

a: As for things that left an impression… well, there have been a lot of shocking things (laughs).

I feel like there might not be anyone that fits the phrase “I get anxious when I’m treated kindly" as well as this character does.

I think he is a very aggressive character in our day and age, and I’m grateful to have been given the opportunity to play him for five years.

While I realize that there are people who have critical opinions about characters like Momochi, on the other hand, I think playing such a character is a great honor for an actor… and if you look at the world as a whole, there are people like him out there, right? I think it also broadens our perspective to acknowledge that. So personally, I want to support him and be there for him.

q: Finally, could you please give a message to our readers?

a: Momochi-kun has been exposing his true colors as a scumbag more and more, but in a way, I think of him as "Mr. Rejet!" (laughs). I have no intention of increasing or encouraging unreasonable people like him in the world, but it's strange how we can feel a kind of magical attraction to him... Maybe it's just one of the mysterious aspects of human nature. To everyone that loves Momochi, I hope you can continue to experience thrilling experiences through Momochi-kun that wouldn’t happen in the real world, and would be a huge deal if they did♪

Subtle Info About Aventurine From All Promotional Video (ENG & JP)

Some of them I found from others insight~

SNS

Ratio comment "heh" here sounds unusual and unexplainable, so when I search in JP it came with "fun = hmph" means he's annoyed by Churin post (maybe he know that's just a lip service lol)

Topaz post which only Ratio like one, from outward it just sounds like Churin annoyed them so much (lol) but if you look deeper means those two care about Churin to the point they want know him deeper

From outward this post just showing Churin extravagant spend but with only him and Sunday like the post this could means "Sunday seems took interest to buy the perfume so Churin just want to pissed off Sunday by buying them all" (lol)

Myriad Celestial

From here there's possibility Avgin aren't extinct, maybe Churin never care to search for them which explain Avgins thousand missing people could be still alive out there.

This scene came after Sunday asked about Churin hate this world for making his life harsh, from here we can guess that he doesn't hate it that much but still wagering if he can change his fate. Which explain Churin mental conditions morelike "I won't give up just because of my dark past, but if times come for me to die I'll gladly give my life after trying all ways to avoid it".

Trailer

eh I'm pretty sure everyone already know he put his left hand behind while putting bravado face means...

Interstellar Travel Moment (Anime Version)

I don't know it's coincidence or not from hoyo but they put that line along with Churin sad face...

Interview with Owlbert and Ratio

I guess we can say thanks to Owlbert for translating Ratio feelings with Churin for this interview (lol).

From here I think we can predict how much those two doing mission together and Ratio chair change into his bathtub, funny they still can't called each other a "close" friend...

Final Victor LC 2D Motion (ENG here JP here)

One insightful person said this LC movement kinda funny since Churin want to move the pistol but hold tight by Ratio, since Churin can't beat him in strength, so he move his body closer (lol)

From my side, I heard ENG and JP VA (I can't understand KR CN language emotion lol) which brought a different feelings come from this LC. ENG using a prideful emotion while JP using scare like emotion. Kawanishi line "can't you believe me, doctor ?" (shinjite kurenai no kai, kyouju) here sounds so desperate and in his next line he become normal Churin again, and it match with Churin personality from Acheron voiceline.

Daily Message

DAY 1 we got an automatic message coming from him which he already set to send in case he's dying which means he's still at nihility. Since it's DAY 1, I kinda hope we got another automatic message from him telling his feelings or so on (maybe we can get another credits lol)

PS

Catch some his bravado moment but draws with sad face...

#honkai star rail #aventurine #should we say Penacony MC part 1 ? lol #oh how much I adore him and kawanishi voice ! #he's perfect and adding kawanishi he become complete set ! #oh yeah churin sounds cute right hahaha #like a baby name #in the end I won't buy BP since it's my vow to f2p hsr #so yeah I contribute in different ways like buying anan #I'm late for PASH so it's already sold out #can't blame it #PASH came with A5/4 size forgot churin signature lc #plus featuring kamikou

i have just realized that pash is probably in her thirties. late twenties at a minimum. like on my first read i thought she was obnoxious and brash in the way that you are when your frontal lobe isnt fully developed but that math doesnt math. shes nine or ten in wakes photo which was taken at least twenty years before nona takes place. plus, pyrrha first guesses shes wakes sister. pash is fully grown. this is the best news

To say the least.”] 2 [Juju: “Hi, Hello, I am Julissa Becker but I go by Juju or Jujubug depending on our relationship bar, and I will be one of your hosts with my sexy  Future forever lover Izzi.”] 3 [Izzi: “She is hosting, I am more supervising  her to not go too crazy with this newfound power that was bestowed on her by our creator.”] [Juju: “Oh pish pash! I am Behaving.”] 4 [Izzi: “Yeah for now. But yes, while Bubbles is off being our creator, J- Izzi could feel Juju’s eyes boring into the side of their head- We.. We are taking over production.”] [Juju giggles under her breath] 5 [Juju: “Correct. WE. So who should we start with?”] [Izzi: “Well.. we recently saw Josiah and his partner Noah.. and – 6 [Juju: “A PREGNANT RUBY! GUYS! RUBY! IZZI’S FIRST LOVE IS PREGNANT! FULL ON PREGNANT!”] [Tobias and Ruby picture break] 7 [Izzi: “And her dorky.. yet adorable partner Tobias.”] [Juju: “*hums* He is hot… Ruby too.. I mean… I get it..

[hotwaterandmilk]

Just another one of those posts where I do a bit of a general update on a few things. This time opening with an edited scan of Maomao from Nekokurage's Kusuriya no Hitorigoto manga adaptation to get your attention. Boo!

I've been reading the Kusuriya no Hitorigoto light novels and enjoying them in the sense that I think preteen me would have liked them. I started reading the LNs earlier this year (as they're great for reading in waiting rooms and the like thanks to their short format) and I think the LNs are definitely my preferred version of the story. The anime has a nice OP theme but is fairly middling otherwise and I don't go much on the art in either mang adaptation (though Nekokurage's art has improved recently and Maomao looks less like a giant-headed baby doll in the Animate bonus cards per my scan above). Maomao is the real draw in all versions so obviously I preordered her Nendo the first moment I could — bring on May 2024!

Speaking of translated light novels you can buy right now, the first part of the Oguni no Koushaku Reijō wa Tekikoku nite Kakusei Suru light novel was just released as A Young Lady Finds Her True Calling Living with the Enemy Volume #1 by Cross Infinite World (see here). It's a solid story that doesn't overstay its welcome and Bertine's business acumen is just *chefs kiss* for those after a competent heroine.

Once the second and final part of this is out, I'd love to see Cross Infinite World pick up another short (but unrelated) PASH! Books publication, Shiitagerareta Shuusai Reijou to Ringoku no Haraguro Kenkyuusha-sama no Amayaka na Yakusou Jikkenshitsu. The web novel version was quite solid but I haven't read the printed version yet. Yeah I like science ladies, what can I say? It would be so good to keep seeing interesting titles for girls and women being picked up for English release because I tire of isekai villainess stories (which imho peaked years ago with Watashi no Oshi wa Akuyaku Reijou) and there are some great little tales out there that do things a bit differently & just need to be shown to the right audience.

I'm so excited for Metallic Rouge in early January! While it used to be that getting an original property from BONES was always exciting, it has been a while since they've created anything I've really cared about but I'm hoping this will break the drought. If a show has Izubuchi, Kawamoto, Yamada contributing then you know I've got to be there. Plus a couple of lady leads in a SF setting? Trailers with some great action and music? I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much but I'm keen to give it a shot. If it isn't for me at least I can say I've given it a chance, right?

I've been terrible at sharing the latest about this year's Silent Möbius anniversary, but I'm not a news blogger and frankly very few people care so eh y'know, whatever. BUT I figured I should say something about FAIRYTALE PARFUM releasing scents for the key members of AMP this month (though Mana has been totally forgotten, it seems). You can check out the range here, there will be a launch event on the 10th of December in Shinjuku too.

Asamiya drew new artwork for the bottles and while I'd love to get Kiddy's perfume that nods towards her bodily acceptance in its notes, importing that stuff is just too much of a pain so I've settled for a tiny acrylic stand of Kiddy instead. Sadly there's no option to buy a set of stands so I just went "whatever" and grabbed just my best girl. Anyway, if you'd like a tiny acrylic stand of an AMP girl with extra weird proportions then make sure you check out the FAIRYTALE PARFUM website.

#personal #sorry for the long post #this is just y'know a bunch of stuff that didn't warrant individual posts #so here it all is in one big slab sry

[mack-anthology-mp3]

Out of the ineffable husbands,which one is your fave?. Aziraphale or crowley?. Also what are your headcanons on their relationship?.

:0 a good omens ask!!! hehe thank you :)

ough how could i choose?? i love them both <33 but i'm going to have to say crowley is my favourite ahhhh i just love himmmmmmm <3. i think he's my favourite because the way he shows his love for aziraphale is just so sweet, and like me he's a massive dork who is trying to be cool :)

my hcs for them - relationship-wise i think they are alloace, it just makes the most sense to me. once they (eventually) have a Talk About Feelings and realise they're both deeply in love with each other, they'll definitely be romantic and sensual and queer platonic and everything, but i just... don't see them actually *sleeping together* no. sleeping together yes 100% but *sleeping together* no. i think they would both make the effort if they wanted to but i don't think they'd want to and i have literally no justification why i think this but yeah <3

crowley at least is demi in my mind, aziraphale i can imagine occasionally having a bit of a pash on someone else but only for like. until he remembers crowley is there lol. asjnasjnasnja they love each other so muchhhhhhhh

i think they *almost* kissed in 1941. almost. like so close they wondered afterwards if maybe they did. or it was the most gentle barest brush of a kiss and afterwards they wondered if maybe they didn't. (which gives me a fic ideaaaaa ooughhhhhhhh).

i also think they have been meeting very regularly since rome - every few years at first, then every few months, until pre-s2 when they're practically living together. only seeing each other in the flashbacks we're shown just doesn't make sense. even just in 1601 when crowley says 'we've done it before, dozens of times now' about the arrangement, and yeah it has been 900 years since wessex, but i can imagine aziraphale took A Lot of convincing to get to the arrangement in the first place, plus meeting up just for lunch and hanging out & other stuff. i don't think crowley was dragged to hell for 30 years after 1827 either. 'last month crowley and i etc' 'and that was the last of him i was to see of crowley for quite some time *past tense, he's seen crowley since, that makes it like. just under two months max*' like. idk how exactly people think they got to this stage in their relationship based on a handful of meetings in the last 300 years but ok all hcs are valid :)

and, i think aziraphale is far more aware of his feelings than crowley is, even though he hides in under layers of denial & repression. he knows *exactly* the depth of love he feels for crowley and would do anything to be able to show it, but is still scared that it's wrong and that he *shouldn't* feel that way - but he knows he does. crowley is more along the lines of, he feels the feelings but doesn't stop to examine them as much. like he does examine his feelings, but in his view how aziraphale is feeling is more important than how he, crowley, feels, so he doesn't ponder it as much. ahhhhhhhhhasjanksn they just need to sit down and talk to each other. and then hug. and then properly move in together lol <3

#thank you so so so so so much for this ask!!!!! #you have no idea how long i've been hoping someone might ask me about them lol :D #almost didn't realise i had so many thoughts on them even though i think of them. every day. the brainrot. <3 #this isn't the half of it lol #thank you so much!!! #sorry to all my music followers. good omens be upon ye

Today's translation #266

Febri vol. 40. Kubo Mitsurou's interview

Part 11.

--- The most extreme example of that is the rings scene in episode 10 - it was shocking. After listening to what you've just said - was is also a spontaneous development?

"Not spontaneous - it was inevitable! At least this is what I was thinking, when I was drawing the storyboards. I was looking forward to draw that scene at the end of episode 9., where Yuuri and Victor meet again at the airport in Fukuoka, and at that point in time, me or Yamamoto Director, we weren't really planning to set up any bombastic tricks in episodes 10 or 11. However, because episode 10 is the last breather before the Grand Prix Final, we wanted to make it as fun as we could. To do that we were putting forward different ideas and I was wondering if it would be possible to make the relationship between Yuuri and Victor even deeper. By that point in time, they had already hugged and done things straight out of Monday 9PM TV dramas, so I was thinking that probably doing more would be impossible. But then, a thought came to me, that it would be nice to have an item that could be a kind of boost for the Grand Prix Final. When I was looking around websites of various rings brands, I found the information that engagement rings are not only for people who want to get married, but also something that you can gift to your soulmate. I thought: "That's it!". Plus, among the reference materials we have gathered during our location hunting in Barcelona, I found photos of a church and choir, so I thought: "That's the place!".

--- Everything just came together, almost as if you were guided by something/somebody.

"I was almost at the end of my wits at that time, but that scene, I drew on impulse. It was before the anime started airing, so I didn't know what the response was going to be like, and how people were going to interpret it. I was like: I don't really care if people are going to think that "this scene is just absurd!" (laugh).

--- As a result, the viewers went crazy.

"If it was a manga, I think that much less attention would have been paid to it, surprisingly. It was very interesting for me to see, how impactful it was when it was made into animation.

[Notes: Many TV dramas that aired at this time slot, Monday at 9PM, on Fuji TV gained huge popularity, so it's a sort of "brand" for TV dramas. It's already a well-know fact in the fandom, but for newer fans which happened to stumble across this translation - she meant the airport scene.

---

"When I was looking around websites of various rings brands, I found the information that engagement rings are not only for people, who wants to get married, but also something that you can gift to your soulmate."

Many people would probably feel a bit weird if somebody important to them gave them a ring saying that "it's an engagement ring", but then said: "But it's not an engagement, we are not engaged" - the classic "words have specific meanings" problem. I'm sure some jewelry brands use the word "soulmate" in their marketing, but I'm not sure they encourage people to gift "engagement rings" to people who they don't want to get engaged to. There are others types of rings, too, after all.

In Jp, she kind of "solved" this problem using the English-Japanese word "engage rings (engeeji ringu)", where engage is short for "engagement", instead of Japanese "konyaku yubiwa", lol. Both mean exactly the same thing, but people who don't speak English may not know what the word "engagement" means - like, "engeeji ringu" is the ring the bride-to-be may get from her partner, but maybe it has different meanings in English, who knows? 🤨 If she said "'konyaku yubiwa' are not for 'konyaku'" instead, then you'd immediately think: "eee, what are you talking about? Why call them "konyaku yubiwa" then?"... At least, no clubs for after-school activities were mentioned this time 😂 (The "rings are for bukatsu members" explanation was from Pash!!! issue published on February 10th 2017, and this interview was published on March 1st 2017.)]

[connorqtie]

Valorant Men, Smash or Pass

I'm bored so im gonna do a valorant men smash or pass, might do a valorant women one but then again im gay but OH WELLL

Breach - Pass, oddly enough. It's not like a "ew" kind of pass it's more of "attractive but not my type" pass

Brimstone - Pass. I see him more like a father for some reason I'm sorry, BUT I WOULD SLAP THAT ASS

Chamber - Smash. I'm sorry I KNOW he's the really flirtatious and confident kind and it's just a trope you see almost everywhere but THAT GIVES HIM THE RIZZ IM SORRY

Cypher - Pash/Smass (/hj). I find him HELLA attractive but like, this man is pretty attached to his family and I do not wanna ruin that honestly

Harbor - 1000000% SMASH IDC WHAT ANYONE SAYS. I may just have a type for a lot of poc men and stuff but my god I was feral the moment I saw him (pls daddy lemme ride ur "bike" 😋)

KAY/O - Pass, but not solely because he's a robot, ya know?

Omen - Pass? I can't make up my mind but he's quite attractive to me I'll give you that

Phoenix - SMASH. Bro has the rizz, the charm, the pretty boy looks, all that. Plus he's adorable

Sova - Smash. Bro's a gentleman, has some luscious hair, and a face that's like making you breakfast in the morning

Yoru - Pass honestly. He's giving me conyo (NOT PUSSY) boy vibes despite being japanese, I hope y'all get what I mean 😭

[c64screengrabs]

A week or so ago I was browsing a thread on Reddit titled, "What is that one childhood video game that you loved to bits, yet no-one else seems to have ever heard of?" That sort of thing is right up my alley, so I searched through it hoping to find some C64-specific posts and, I did! They are also ones I haven't yet featured, so let's do so!

First up, u/MELMHC posted: "Below the root on C64"

Below the Root was a nice little sidescroller RPG released in 1984 by Windham Classics, a once-division of Spinnaker Software. It's based on a series of fantasy novels titled The Green Sky trilogy by Zilpha Keatley Snyder which were published between 1975-77, which I actually didn't know until now so I looked up the books for more backstory.

In the books, a race of people called The Kindar of Green-sky are a utopian society, ruled by leaders called the Ol-zhaan, who are considered deities. "Unjoyful" emotions like anger and sorrow are banned and kept under strict control by a system of meditation, chant and ritual, accompanied by the use of narcotic berries. The people are vegetarians and surround themselves with pets. Babies are born with paranormal powers, which is kept into adulthood, but were disappearing earlier with each successive generation. The people lived in fear of the forest floor and the pash-shan, legendary monsters said to stalk below the roots of their magnificent tree-cities.

A novice Ol-zhaan named Raamo and his friend Neric (one of the game's playable characters) set out to discover if the monsters truly exist. What they found were the Erdlings, a race made up of exiled Kindar dissidents and their descendants. Where the Kindar live their whole lives in the shade, the Erdlings seek places where the sun penetrates the caverns. They have been living in the caverns and subsisting on plants, mushrooms and the occasional unwary rabbit (lapan) or ground bird, plus fallen fruits from the Kindar orchards. They are superb craftsmen, metalworkers and jewelers; they have fire, which is unknown in Green-sky, and transport people and supplies by railway, using steam propulsion. They have no taboos against anger, sadness or other "unjoyful" emotions, and (possibly as a result) appear to have retained much more of their psychic powers than have the Kindar.

Their discovery shakes the very foundation of Green-sky's social order. The Erdlings are released from their exile and the Ol-zhaan disbanded, but reconciling the two societies takes a long time. An unnamed society of disgruntled Ol-zhaan (called Salite in the game) and the Nekom, vengeance-seeking Erdlings, began patrolling the branch-paths and causing unrest. Furthermore, Raamo himself apparently perished, silencing a voice for tolerance and unity.

In the game's manual, you are told that the wise old woman (and former Ol-zhaan high priestess) D'ol Falla has a vision, in which she heard these words: "The Spirit fades, in Darkness lying. A quest proclaim - the Light is dying." Your character (one of five from the series) then begins the game looking for clues to the meaning of D'ol Falla's vision in hopes of restoring peace to both nations.

The game does a great job in sticking close to details of the books, such as making you unable to steal as that behaviour is banned in the society. To obtain and item you must ask characters for permission to take it, or to pay with tokens you can gain in-game. Also adhering to this, the game was made to be almost entirely non-violent. You can only be hurt by contact with venomous animals, falling, or colliding with a barrier. Your character can also be kidnapped and taken hostage, and collect weapons, which can mostly only be used to cut vine barriers. Killing someone renders the game unwinnable.

The nicely coloured graphics were considered advanced for the time, and competent controls made gameplay easy. The game was well-received, and now has a fanpage for the game and the books up online.

PASH! Magazine Interview

Hello, all! We have for you an exclusive magazine interview between the voice actors for Hanako-kun and Yashiro Nene, Ogata Megumi-san and Kitou Akari-san, that was published in the April 2020 issue of PASH! magazine!

Click below to read our translation!

Role of Hanako-kun ・Ogata Megumi & Role of Nene・Kito Akari [Last name, First name]

(Ogata Megumi. Representative of Breathe Arts. Performances: Ikari Shinji from “Transforming Bullet Train Robot Shinkalion”, and others.)

(Kito Akari. Affiliate of PRO・FIT [Inc.]. Performances: Nezuko from “Kimetsu no Yaiba (Demon Slayer)”, Himesska Nao from “Wataten!: An Angel Flew Down to Me”, and others.)

Hanako-kun, Nene, and Kou are disjointed. Even still, they are strangely well-balanced.

Ogata Megumi-san, who plays 3 roles, and Kito Akari, who plays the worried maiden Nene, look back on the 9th episode.

Nene can’t interfere with Hanako-kun, Amane, and Tsukasa’s relationship.

(Right to Left)

Hanako-kun, Nene, and Kou’s interactions are the spice of the story, but how do Ogata-san and Kito-san feel about it?

Ogata: They’re just like an assistant and servant? They might be friends, but they also might not be… A “Let’s fight something together!” kind of team feeling, perhaps.

Kito: It certainly seems like everyone is disjointed.

Ogata: Yes, disjointed! So I think as a whole their relationship has a nice balance, albeit a strange one.

What do you two think is Kou’s charm?

Ogata: He’s like a cute puppy (Lol).

Kito: (Lol). I also started thinking more about it after Chiba (Shoya)-kun’s performance. At another interview, I was asked “Between Nene and Kou, who do you think is the real heroine?”. Of course, I thought it was Nene, but I can still see that he’s a cute kid.

Conversely, the older brother, Teru, is the student council president, and he creates a calm atmosphere. If you were a high school student, would you be more attracted to Kou or Teru?

Kito: As I’m attracted to the older type, it’d be Teru-kun.

Ogata: I like both of them… Hmm… (Lol).

Speaking of Kou, the scene where he makes donuts with Nene made your heart pound, right?

Kito: It was a scene that really made my heart pound. Though he acts like a poor cook, he does all of the housework at home. How cool of him. 

Ogata: Right? That’s a plus for me. Earlier, I said “I like both of them…” but maybe Kou is the better one. I mean, a man like Teru who can’t cook but arrogantly eats the food is no good (Lol). When it comes to marriage, it’s gotta be Kou!

But regrettably, it seems Nene doesn't think that way about Kou.

Ogata: Doesn’t Nene have a radar for good-for-nothing men?

Kito: (Lol). Nene’s a dreamer, it can’t be helped.

From here on, we'll be asking questions about each of the episodes. Please tell us your thoughts on Hanako-kun’s and Nene’s meeting from the first and second episode.

Kito: Nene-chan still didn’t really understand Hanako-kun yet, so there were times where she was manipulated by him. I profoundly remember a scene where Nene gets a lecture from Hanako-kun about romance.

Ogata: Seriously, what an unhelpful guy (Lol).

Kito: It’s true! (Lol) Also, when Nene and Hanako-kun were in the vegetable garden talking about “Radish Legs,” I had fun doing the voice for the radish.

Ogata: That happened, didn’t it!

Was there any acting direction for radish legs?

Kito: There was. At first, I used a high-pitched voice. Afterwards, I was told “Please use a more radish-like, plump voice.” But the TV broadcast ended up using the high-pitched voice (Lol).

In episodes 3-4 “The Misaki Stairs,” Nene thinks Hanako-kun likes her, and misunderstood him in the fifth episode. What are your thoughts on that?

Kito: Yukana-san’s performance as Yako in The Misaki Stairs was amazing. Listening to Fox Yako’s voice was a real joy in particular.

Ogata: Yukana-san is like an eternally youthful apparition herself. As expected of Yukana (Lol).

Kito: I thought Episode 5 was straight out of Shoujo manga. If a boy acts like Hanako-kun did, a girl’s bound to misunderstand. I think Hanako-kun’s a natural at seducing girls. (Lol).

Ogata: He wasn’t conscious of his conduct and thought nothing of it. In episode 1, he says “I’ll have you pay me back with your body.”, but all he means is that he wanted an assistant to work for him. He didn’t mean anything bad. That’s why he meekly apologized with “I’m sorry” when he saw Nene crying. However, he isn’t always unintentional. I think he definitely knows the implications of what a “kokeshi” is (Lol). Since Hanako-kun also died when he was in middle school, his speech might be afflicted by “chuunibyou”, or middle school syndrome.

Kito: Nene always insists that Hanako-kun isn’t her type, so I think they’re the same in that regard.

Ogata: Nene is a young girl that’s in love with love itself, but she gives up quickly (Lol). Even while talking about how cool (Hyuuga) Natsuhiko-senpai was, when he got taken by the supernatural on the other side of the door, she ruthlessly cut in with “I’ve got a feeling he’ll be fine” (Lol).

Both the search for Hanako-kun’s secret in “The 4PM Bookstacks” and the appearance of Hanako’s look-alike, Tsukasa, really progressed the story quickly in Episodes 6-7.

Ogata: From then on, I started voicing Hanako-kun, Amane, and Tsukasa. I’m not sure if I should say I voice two roles, or if it’s better to say I voice three… nevertheless, when the time comes, I follow my feelings while acting each character.

Kito: Even now, the heavy scenes have been appearing little by little, but the story of Amane and Tsuchigomori-sensei’s past hit deep. His past is so painful...

Kitou-san, what are your feelings about Hanako-kun/Amane’s and Tsukasa’s relationship?

Kito: Even Nene can’t seem to interfere in their relationship. After she learned of Hanako-kun’s past, Nene herself could feel the distance.

Ogata: Nene usually disregards the distance between herself and other people and intrudes, but this time she read the atmosphere, which is impressive. But when she said “But this is worse than I thought! It's too heavy! It's too much trouble!!” it showed how she really felt.

Kito: Well, it is too heavy! (Lol).

It seems that from Episode 8 and on, Tsukasa, Sakura, and Natsuhiko go all out and start to make their move.

Kito: They’re a trio just like the main characters, but they’re a completely different type. More mature, I think.

Ogata: Sakura’s legs are also different from Nene’s. They’re very alluring.

Kito: Truly. Still, Nene found mutual understanding with her adversary Sakura. I loved how Nene lowered her defenses during their girls’ talk. (Lol).

Do you have any other scenes you liked?

Ogata: I enjoyed Episode 9, where I got to act with the voice actors of the apparitions that appeared beyond the doors. It was fun.

Kito: If we’re talking about Episode 9, it was entertaining how useless Natushiko-senpai was, I loved it. It made me laugh in the manga, but having it voiced powered up the scene's entertainment value (Lol).

Ogata: Deplorable people = Takahiro Mizushima [Natsuhiko’s VA]. Ah, I mean it in that his acting is skillful, of course. (Lol)

Kito: I also liked when Hanako was confronted by Tsukasa in Episode 7 and looked like he was incapable of saying anything. Even now, I can’t forget Hanako-kun’s dejected facial expression. It was deeply moving.

Please leave a message to readers who are excited for Episode 10 and onwards.

Ogata: Episode 10 is actually being dubbed after this, so whatever kind of development awaits us, we, like the viewers, are looking forward to it.

Kito: I have no doubt that it’ll be entertaining. Please watch the rest of the Hanako-kun cast’s journey.
