The TV anime "The Battle of Arslan", which will be broadcast tomorrow (April 5), has announced a short interview with the main creators and the voice actors who lead them. This interview was conducted by the superintendent Abe Kiyuki, who made up the series Makoto Kamie Shu, Yusuke Kobayashi who played Arslan, Yoshimasa Hosoya who played Tatsuna, Daisuke Nanikawa who played Narsas, Natsuki Hanae who played Yalam, Kenn who played Kio, and Maaya Sakamoto who played Frangis.

The original work of the anime version of "Arslan Wars" was drawn by Hiroshi Arakawa, the author of "Fullmetal Alchemist", and Yoshiki Tanaka, the author of "The Legend of the Galactic Heroes", as the original work, and it has been serialized in "Besshoen Magazine" since 2013. It tells the story of the difficult road to the restoration of the kingdom of the deceased prince Arslan, accompanied by loyal ministers. The anime version is supervised by Abe Kiyuki, Sei Kamie serves as the series composition, and Shingo Kogi serves as the character setting.

――What are your impressions of Arslan's Wars?

Kobayashi: This is a "royal road" war story that everyone will love. Not to mention the wonderful story, the characters on the stage are all charming characters, and different people can see different interests when they look at them. It is a great honor to be involved in the production of such a work. All of us, as well as the voice actors, have to enjoy it and do their best to do it well. I'm going to do my best to play Arslan.

Hosoya: I read the original manga before I was about to record it, and it was a very rigorous and interesting work. You can feel the weight of the original manga from the script, and it should be possible to make a work that inherits the worldview of the original work. So, maybe I'm not ashamed to say this, but I will believe in the strength of the script, and I don't need to work too hard, and I don't need to think too much about technical issues, just do it well. Still, there is some unease......

As for the atmosphere in the studio...... This was my first time as a voice actor, and I felt that it was not like an anime recording, but like a dubbing version of a foreign movie, and I felt nostalgic. The atmosphere here will be slightly quieter compared to the recording studios of other animations. The ambiance was very nice.

Nanikawa: It's a very historical work, and the manga version of the original novel has also been animated before. I feel very honored to be a part of such a popular work. The story begins in the midst of "adversity" for Arslan. They've taken on tough challenges, and so have our voice actors. The voice actors are united and struggle hard every day. I hope that this animated version will allow you to see a new world of "Arslan Wars".

Hanae: After getting the role of Yalam, I, like everyone else, was very happy to be able to participate in the anime version of such a long-lived work. Although the worldview of the work is a bit complicated, everyone should be able to naturally enter the story when you look at it. I also want to travel with Arslan in such a fascinating world. I will continue to work until the day I regain the royal capital.

KENN: After reading the original manga, I found that all the characters on the scene are very detailed and the character characteristics are very prominent, and it is a work that you can't get tired of reading. There are a lot of convincing lines that are also one of the charms of this work. I'm already a fan now, and I'm looking forward to the future development of the original manga (laughs).

I just recently joined the recording, and it was both fun and nervous, and it was a very exciting scene. I hope that I can continue to concentrate in the future and play happily until the end.

Sakamoto: From the moment it was announced that I could appear in this work, many people said to me, "Congratulations on your appearance in Arslan." The attention and popularity of the work can already be seen. I'm still some time away from the official recording, and I'm looking forward to that day sooner rather than later.

Kamie Tsuu: I've been a big fan of the first published version of the book since the first edition of the book was published. Age also happens to be the core readership age of the fanbase. I have always watched how this work was loved by readers, widely circulated, and continued to this day. Because of this, I was under much more pressure to be involved in such a work this time than other producers and voice actors. At the same time, I feel very honored to be entrusted with this important task.

When I first received this job, I was already in a fluttering state. However, when I started working on the composition of the series, I put the excitement behind me for a while and worked very sensibly. The original work itself is very good, so I will keep the essence of the original work as much as possible, and then make the animated version more shocking and interesting, and bring a unique "Arslan War" with the director.

Abe: Although the title of this work is "Senki", I think it is a "biography". In other words, the characters in this work are very prominent, and I was strongly aware of this when I made this work.

Now the recording has just begun, and each voice actor is perfectly integrated with the character. In my previous experience, works that can be well received are usually good works that are good at the original, storyboarding, and even better with the addition of sound. As the work progresses, what makes people feel that the quality is good is generally a good work. This work makes me feel that way. Thanks to everyone's efforts, the final product should be a better work than what I see now.

――What do the voice actors think of the atmosphere in the studio?

KENN: I just started recording. Although only one prologue was recorded, it seems that everyone has cooperated for dozens of words, and it is very tacit.

Hosoya: The atmosphere was very harmonious, but the excitement of the people during the recording was not something that could be seen with the naked eye. Maybe it's because of the seniors in the voice actor industry who are on the side.,There's a sense of calm and heaviness in the harmonious atmosphere.。 However, every time a new voice actor joins, the atmosphere changes. When Nanikawa and Hanae joined in, and when Kenn joined in, the atmosphere changed.

Kobayashi: It's really changed.

――What is your impression of the role you played?

Hosoya: Tatsuna, as long as he thinks it is right, he will never waver, and he will stick to his justice until the end. That's what characterizes him as a person. The stage of this work is a world where the relationship between superiors and subordinates is very clear, but he can bluntly admonish the king of a country, "You are wrong". He had a lot of respect for the king and knew that if he spoke his mind, he would be opposed by others. Not only that, but once the king's scales are brushed, it will also cause death. Yet, despite this, he is still so upright. He doesn't think too much about the world, doesn't care about the atmosphere of the scene, and doesn't be overly considerate of the feelings of the weak. He is a man who has a clear goal and is determined to achieve that goal. I hope that Tong Guò's own performance will give everyone a sense of his character. That's the only one I paid special attention to. The original work is really good, and the relationship between the characters is also well portrayed, and it is not good to perform a little more or less. I myself wouldn't have set up a pre-set to ask people to pay attention to somewhere in this role.

Nanikawa: It seems that Tarong is Arslan's "mother", right?

Hosoya: Superintendent Abe did say so.

Nanikawa: And Narzas is like "Daddy". However, this father is very sensible, and there are large and complex explanations in the lines (laughs). However, as a weirdo, he is very considerate of the people around him. At first glance, it seems to be cold, but from his communication with Yelam, it can be seen that he can also lower his identity to adapt to the other party's perspective. So it's actually a very good person to get along with. It's hard to see on the outside, but in essence he's a friendly person (laughs).

Hanae: Jelam worshipped such Narzas as if he were his disciple. However, he does not just blindly obey, but implements his ideas. I'll perform this part carefully. In addition, he is the closest person in age to Arslan, but the relationship between the two is not good at first. Yeelam was unilaterally hostile to Arslan. Then in the process of traveling, the two gradually became closer and became friends, and I hope that I can perform this process in an orderly manner. Although Jelam doesn't speak with a mouthful, she occasionally shows a cute side (laughs). About this I also figured out guò sound table xiàn out.

Kobayashi: Impressions of the character...... Arslan...... Because the other characters are too prominent, his image is a little blurred......

Hosoya: Not at all!

(Laughter)

Kobayashi: Thank you (laughs). Seriously, though, Arslan is indeed an "ordinary" prince. Still, the other companions were willing to follow him. Because he felt that "this prince is a person to follow", he gathered around him. What is the reason for this? I'll be thinking about this all the time I'm performing.

Although he is a royal family, but in the world of this work, people don't have a good impression of the royal family. However, Arslan is different from the royal family in people's impressions, and has a loving heart. As a royal family, he has a special identity and a special heart. That's why everyone gathers around him with anticipation. That's the answer I have in mind now. So I wanted to show his uprightness and purity wholeheartedly in the performance. In addition, not only pure, but also from the standpoint of the royal family, he seriously thought about the question of "what to do after he regains the royal capital". I hope you can pay attention to these aspects.

KENN: CHIV IS A WOLF EVERYWHERE HE GOES, AND HIS POWERFUL DEBUT HAS LEFT A LASTING IMPACT. He started out as a very hard-lined, casual person, but suddenly revealed his heart, and was an unpredictable character. As Hosoya and Supervisor Abe talked about just now, this work is very complete from the beginning, and each character is alive and there is no need for us to supplement it with acting skills. However, Chifu often behaves strangely, making the audience feel "what the hell does he want to do", or "I didn't expect him to be a good person", and every time he sees him appear, he will leave a different impression and has complex and multifaceted nature. I wish I could show that.

Sakamoto: I'm the only voice actor in the room today who is a woman, and there are a lot of male characters in the whole work. Frangis is a rare and important female character who has to play a very important role in this work. I hope to dispel the smell of sweat in the work a little bit and bring a little fragrance (laughs).

(Laughter)

Sakamoto: On the one hand, she is very feminine, and on the other hand, unlike the strength of men, she has a flexible and powerful side that is unique to women, and this is Frangis. I wanted to make the audience feel Francis's majestic femininity.

――Finally, I would like to say a few words to the fans.

Shangjiangzhou: Now that script writing is getting better, every time I see the voice actors performing in the studio, I have a feeling of enlightenment. You can feel exactly how the TV anime version of "The Battle of Arslan" was finally completed. I will continue to work towards the climax on this basis. Stay tuned.

Abe: I want to make an anime that respects the original. As everyone said earlier, the original work itself is already very detailed, and we don't need to add to it. However, on the other hand, I hope that the form of guò TV animation will make the work more exciting. That's what I think. "This "Arslan Wars" originally took this route!" Looking forward to hearing everyone's voices.

Shangjiangzhou: We all hope that this work can continue forever. Thank you for your kind attention.

Hosoya: Both those who have known about Arslan Senki before and those who have seen the Arslan Senki anime before will come to watch this work. I hope that everyone will not look at this work with preconceived notions, but with a normal heart. Without knowing it, anyone who dials in to the broadcast channel and watches it will definitely enjoy this work. Nowadays, it is rare to see works of this kind of worldview and style. After reading it, it will definitely make you feel something, and I think so. I hope you all enjoy this work.

Nanikawa: To be honest, I really want everyone to come and see it. Although it is a work from a long time ago, it still does not fade to this day. Everyone who has read it will understand. I think this should be a work that can be enjoyed by audiences of all ages. Thank you for your kind attention.

Hanae: I hope that all the viewers can watch this work with the eyes of Arslan and become one of them. If you look at it, you'll be caught up in it. I didn't know much about history myself, so I found it difficult to understand, but this work is really easy to understand. In the process of recording, I gradually liked it. So everyone will definitely feel the charm of this work from it. I've worked very hard and I hope you will come and see it.

KENN: I hope I can work with the other voice actors to make this work even better. In addition, it may not be possible to objectively enjoy this work during the recording, so we will turn on the TV to watch it during the broadcast time of the anime, just like everyone else. I really want to see this magnificent masterpiece start broadcasting as soon as possible. I hope you will support the original manga and also support this anime.

Sakamoto: To be honest, each character in this work has their own different characteristics. Different viewers can find the person who can resonate with them, and watching with different eyes can produce different feelings. In that sense, I hope that all kinds of different types of people will be able to enjoy this work in their own way.

I've also acted in Abe's works before, and I thought he was a supervisor who loved the original, respected the original, and valued the quality. This time, as long as you follow in the footsteps of the superintendent, you can complete an excellent work. I don't even know how the story will develop in the future, but I will continue to work hard and look forward to the end of the story with all of you. Thank you for your kind attention.

Kobayashi: You can enjoy the whole story, but you can also pay attention to the story of each character, and there is another attraction of this work, which is the unique "battle" of this work. Not only the clash of swords but also the competition of various strategies, and sometimes amazing fighting styles. In addition to this, Arslan hides a secret. Around this secret, the development of the story will be even more fascinating. There is really a lot to look forward to in this work, and I hope everyone will enter the world of "Arslan Wars"!
