The new animation "School Island", which is currently on the air, has attracted the attention of the majority of anime fans. And after each episode, the media will invite the voice actors to talk about their latest feelings. After the ninth episode, Eimisato Kato, who starred in the work Taro Maru, was interviewed.

Q: I remember that there was a discussion on the official website about the voice actors, and the key to the conversation was that Ms. Kato didn't know the content of the original work until she started dubbing.

A: Yes, I was very surprised when I learned about the plot during the dubbing. It's just that when I was dubbing the ninth episode this time, I asked the director about the next scenes of Taro Maru. And without spoilers, I can only say that I have a feeling of lightness.

Q: I see.

A: So, Taro Maru, "It's going to happen", I'm in a state where I'm probably aware of it (laughs).

Q: In this episode, the strict plot unfolding suddenly becomes a picture of the members of the school life club frolicking in the pool, which is called swimsuit back (laughs).

A: Yes. Everyone seemed to be having a good time, but it was a little unsettling (laughs). Just because I had so much fun, it made me think, "Will this be a glorious memory left in everyone's hearts after the tragedy?", in short, I was in this mood. Especially this is in "School Island"!

Q: I understand this feeling very well (laughs).

A: Anyway, I just had a hunch...... But I really had fun in the dubbing. Yuki-chan was the first to start playing in the water, and then Taro Maru also joined in. And this time, everyone added a lot of improvisation to the dubbing, which is also very happy in this sense.

Q: Taro Maru occupies the mascot-like storage zài in the school life department, and when she acted, what did Miss Kato care about?

A: What about this...... I think the atmosphere of the school life department was created by Taro Maru and 4 other people. This is definitely something to be aware of. I'm afraid that when everyone is feeling uneasy, Taro Maru's screams will ease the tension a little and make the atmosphere a little lighter. It would be nice if I could show this effect.

Q: In other words, Taro Maru will change the atmosphere of Yan sù and become a co-ordinator of the atmosphere.

A: When everyone is discussing issues sternly, there is a sudden shouting (laughs). When the plot becomes strict continuously, as long as Taro Maru suddenly appears, then it makes people feel "Ah, a little relaxed". I hope I can create that feeling.

There is another place that needs to be mentioned this time, and that is that Taro Maru is close to Miki. Even if Miki wanted to get close to Taro Maru, it was difficult to realize this idea. I often see Miki coming over and running away right away. And in this episode, finally because of the CD player, Taro Maru forgave Miki in his heart...... This kind of plot to comfort her shortens the distance between a person and a dog. I'm afraid Miki will be happy, and during the performance, I was thinking, "Ah, I'm finally going to stick to Miki!" (laughs) It's a lot of fun.

Q: It's the feeling of finally forgiving her from the bottom of my heart.

A: After all, it's just that I'm very cold to Miki, and even if I'm dubbing, I feel depressed (laughs). Maybe it's my own understanding, but when I saw the CD player that Miki had always taken seriously, Taro Maru also realized, "This is Kei's CD player." Miki has never forgotten about Jì Kei and still attaches great importance to her until now. And Taro Maru finally understands her feelings. I don't know if that's the case, but it's supposed to think, "Just forgive her." ”

Q: Thinking about it this way, Taro Maru's mind is pretty good.

A: Yes! Surprisingly, it's very good at reading the atmosphere, and its voice is like talking to people (laughs). Taro Maru's expression is quite rich, and as long as you want everyone's mood to be soothed, then you will get into it...... On the one hand, it has to reflect its human nature, and on the other hand, it has to show the characteristics of the dog, and it is very happy to play such a gap in the performance.

Q: I see. So if you threw Ms. Kato into that world, what would you do?

A: I'm afraid I won't have any hope of surviving (laughs), so maybe I'll go find zombies to bite me.

Q: This is a way of giving up on yourself (laughs).

A: Maybe I just gave up. After all, I don't think I can bear the fear and pressure of "I don't know when I'm going to be attacked". So,I think the 4 people in the school life department are really "very strong.。

Q: Actually, we've asked the same question to other performers before, and quite a few of them chose to give up.

A: Ah, is that so!? It's nice to be able to find hope somewhere, but in this state, it's hard to leave school. So, huh...... Let's give up (laughs). Even if I were the only one who survived, it wouldn't help.

Q: I see. So let's change the subject.,In this episode, the 4 people in the school life department are playing in the pool.。 Does Ms. Kato have any memories of the "pool"?

A: Actually, I used to go to the pool a lot when I was a kid. That's why I'm a good swimmer, and my teacher wrote notes for me in kindergarten......

Q: Noteworthy?

A: Attend the booklet, when I was in kindergarten, there was a booklet with a label on it, and as soon as it was the end of the month, the teacher would record something on it. And it was probably on the record in August, and it seems that the kindergarten opened the pool at that time, so the teacher wrote, "Eimira-chan rushed to the pool first, and then everyone rushed in with Eimira-chan." ”

Q: Ahaha (laughs).

A: Now that I think about it, "Ah, this happened!" (laughs). I don't have much of an impression of it, but I think the teacher really understands me when I was a child.

Q: Ms. Kato is unexpectedly a lively type.

A: Yes. It seems that I often run around on a small tricycle (laughs). In kindergarten, he was a very crazy bear child. It's just that I love the pool, and I must have thought confidently at the time, "I can swim!" (laughs)

Q: According to the ninth episode, Miss Kato should be the same type as Kuro.

A: Ah, that's right! Really, the first one rushed over (laughs). But nowadays I do swim occasionally.

Q: Finally, what can you expect from the next episode?

A: I'm very concerned about the last scene of Taro Maru, but I've already asked the director about it...... On the other hand, if you look at the whole story, I hope you can find a solution to the problem. Now that I've been living until now,So I hope that everyone in the school life department can live to the end.。 I don't want anyone to die next.
