In pursuit of the popular voice actor "No Makeup", the popular program "VoiceSwitch" (ボイススイッチ), which starts broadcasting every Sunday at 20:55, has a new guest, Aino Nanjo. "VoiceSwitch" is a mini-show that will take two weeks to interview each of the most popular voice actors, and then create a special feature for the audience. The first week is mainly about interviewing the voice actor's work in front of the scenes, and the second week is about interviewing the private life behind the scenes, so let's take a look at the life behind the scenes of the reverse growth of the cute thing - Nanjo Aino.

【Voice Actor Information】

Nanjo Aino, a famous Japanese female voice actress and singer. The second-generation lead singer of the popular band fripSide, born in Shizuoka Prefecture, belongs to the studio Amuleto, and the record label GENEONUNIVERSAL. As a voice actor, his representative works include "LoveLive! "Eri Ayase", "Women's Rakugo" Soru Miyutei Marukyo, "Notes on the Machine" Senomiya Akiho, etc.

■ Initially did not accept fripSide's invitation

- It's been hard to include the program, so let's talk about today's thoughts first.

Aino Nanjo: It's rare to have the opportunity to discuss work and personal matters in a show, so I felt very happy today. But after all, I'm talking about myself, so I'm still a little shy, and I'm happy to let people know why I started this job.

- Did you mention in the recording of the program that you were more "timid and afraid" when you were a child. But in fact, your current job is to sing and dance in front of people as a singer, so what made you start singing as a singer? What was your state of mind like at that time?

Aino Nanjo: If you want to talk about the opportunity, I think it was an invitation from fripSide. But at the time, I wasn't sure about being a voice actor, and I wasn't very familiar with digital music, so I actually turned down the offer at the time. But even so, fripSide repeatedly invited me because I had the idea of starting a singer in the future, so since fripSide needed me so much, I simply accepted the invitation and started the challenge as a singer.

INTERVIEWER It turns out that you've been interested in singer activities for a long time.

Aino Nanjo: Most of the seniors in the original office were also active as singers, so I was determined to make my debut as a singer one day.

INTERVIEWER Did you feel nervous when you first sang on stage?

Aino Nanjo: I was nervous. Even though it was a small venue that could only accommodate about 1,000 spectators, I remember practicing hard at the hotel the night before (laughs).

■ Tickets sold so well that I was dumbfounded (laughs)

INTERVIEWER Which question did you ask most about today's interview with Nanjo?

Aino Nanjo: The thing that impressed me the most was about my cat. I've been talking about it for a long time on the show, but I still feel like I haven't been able to convey all the charm of my cats to everyone, so it's a shame (laughs). It's really cute, but it's also a noisy little guy. What I want most now is a whole bunch of spare chargers (laughs).

- Ahaha (laughs). So during this recording, you talked about the topic of "how you feel after becoming a voice actor", but have you encountered anything that surprised you after becoming a voice actor?

Aino Nanjo: Let's talk about the on-the-spot play. In the work of the voice actor, he will be asked to use the voice table xiàn to make "......" or "? "These kinds of lines are not lines. Although I knew about these things before I entered the recording scene, I was shocked when I saw the acting skills of my predecessors.

- I see. By the way, whether it's a voice actor event or a singer event, what would be the happiest job if you were asked to name it?

Aino Nanjo: Just recently, I held a birthday live event the day before my birthday. In this event, I summarized my footprints as a voice actor so far, and the audience who came to participate was really gentle, and it was an honor of my life to be able to hold a live on such a stage.

INTERVIEWER How many attendees will attend the event?

Aino Nanjo: There were probably more than 400 people that day.

- That's a lot of people (laughs)

Aino Nanjo: But it seems that this is only a small part of the audience, and there seem to be many more people who come to buy tickets. I was dumbfounded when I heard that there were many tickets for the birthday event (laughs).

- If you want to talk about popularity, you have to mention "LoveLive! >> The 5th concert is here, and fans are currently focusing on this LIVE. So, are you in a state of practice right now?

Aino Nanjo: I'm slowly getting into practice. Recently, most of the members have been busy, and it is difficult to have the opportunity to gather nine people to practice together, which is very difficult. In particular, LoveLive! The LIVE formation in the work is very perfect, and we practice on the formation for a long time every time in order to get close to that kind of Cheng dù. …… From the beginning of this period to the beginning of the year, I felt terrible (laughs).

■I want to do more SOLO activities

INTERVIEWER Nanjo: You have been active in a wide range of fields, but is there anything you would like to see the audience pay special attention to lately?

Aina Nanjo: It must be Aino Nanjo's personal second single "あなたの愛した世界" released on November 5th (Wednesday)! This song is the ED theme song of the TV anime "Gray Fruit" that is currently being broadcast, so I hope you can listen to it!

INTERVIEWER Let's talk about your dreams for the future and the main direction of your future activities.

Aino Nanjo: Hmm...... I want to do more SOLO activities and start LIVE as a person! Since there are so many fans who are always following me, I hope to create more opportunities to get in touch with them!

- Thank you very much. Is there anything you'd like to say to your readers?

Aino Nanjo: There are a lot of topics about the voice actor's job and my personal life in the program, and many of them are things that I haven't said anywhere else, so if you're interested, be sure to watch the program. And then VoiceSwitch is really a show that feels really stylish, and I'm looking forward to seeing myself on the show! Please don't miss this show!

- It's been a hard day.
