Park Lumi talks about the experience of teaching voice acting to foreigners

Park Lumi, a popular voice actress who has starred in anime works such as "Fullmetal Alchemist", recently held a "dubbing experience meeting" for anime lovers from Canada, Mexico and other countries, and Japanese media interviewed her about it.

Q: How did you feel about dubbing for ordinary people from abroad this time?

A: I was a little confused at first, but I was a little moved to see how much they liked the work ("Sushi Ninja") and worked hard to dub it. I've also mentored students at school, but this is my first experience, and I feel like I'll never forget it until I die (laughs).

Q: I noticed that Ms. Park Lumi would pat the nervous Canadian guests on the back to make them relax and perform their acting skills. I was quite surprised by this scene.

A: Newcomers who are voicing children's characters don't know when to match the sound to the picture, so I'll give you some hints. In this way, they will not be confused about "when is it good to speak up", so they can make a sound with confidence, and perhaps this is the reason for their excellent acting skills.

Q: This time, we took turns dubbing in Chinese English, Spanish, and Japanese, so did you feel that Japanese anime is loved all over the world?

A: I'm thinking about how to perform, so I don't think I have any idea of promoting it to the world. But recently, I participated in an event called OTAKON in the U.S., and then held a signing session and a Q&A session, and I really felt that my work had spread all over the world, and the audience was all over the world. In addition, fans in Japan and other countries around the world share the same opinion, which makes people feel that the world has become one.

Q: I am grateful that a guest from Mexico is also a fan of "NANA" (Park Lumi played Nana Osaki in this work) and that I was able to see you in person.

A: Even though I'm from abroad, they came with posters and puppets of "NANA" and "Digimon Adventure" and asked me to sign autographs—that's something I should be grateful for.

Q: Animation in foreign countries is often recorded and then painted, so this time the guests were confused at first.

A: There may indeed be problems with this. From the beginning, "Sushi Ninja" was operated in a way similar to overseas recording, but it turned out that we Japanese voice actors were confused. So I understand their feelings. "Sushi Ninja" was voiced by Mamoru Miyano, Yuki-kun Kaji, and others at the time, and I asked the guests who participated in the dubbing attempt today to experience what it was like to perform as a professional voice actor.

Q: In Japanese animation, "voice acting" may be a characteristic. And before you give everyone a build yì "try to improvise it!" At first, they were all stunned (laughs).

A: I see, that's why...... If you record before you paint, then it is natural to improvise when recording. When we record again, we use improvisation to connect the existing lines, so this aspect is very important. Uh-huh, I learned (laughs).

Q: This time, I used a unique animation like "Sushi Ninja" to have some unique faces voiced. Do you have any work worth recommending?

A: Now I'm voicing a work called "Adventure Treasure". The work is set in the world after the nuclear war, but the theme is very profound, and the Japanese director Masaaki Yuasa also participated, so it sparked a lot of discussion. Please enjoy it with "Sushi Ninja".

In addition, I will be appearing in the stage play "GS Kinmatsu Shoen" from September. This is a work that explores the "meaning of life", and it is very vivid. If you like anime, you might as well come to the scene and experience the charm of the stage play.

Q: It's really exciting. Thank you very much for your time today.

An associate professor at Keio University wears a COS costume to explain otaku culture

At the 54th Japan SF Congress, which was held last weekend (August 29-30), Kazutoku Sugiura, an associate professor at the Graduate School of Media Design at Keio University, Japan's top university, gave a lecture on "Higher Education in Staying at Home (Overseas Edition)". Shockingly, he actually wore a cosplay costume to give a lesson.

Assid. Associate Professor Kazutoku Sugiura said, "There are many lectures at other higher education institutions on the theme of 'otaku culture'. For students who come to graduate school, I don't want to use the lecture content as a selling point, because there are a lot of things that can be found on the Internet. I'm not 'teaching people from a top-down perspective,' I'm 'approaching from an upward perspective.'" The so-called "upward perspective" means "someone who is not teaching people", but "someone who actually does it himself". That's why I wore a cosplay costume to class. At the end of the lecture, there was a "photo session".

In 2011, Sugiura Kazutoku spent a total of 366,000 yen (about 19,398 yuan) on cosplay costumes for class, including dry cleaning fees, all of which he paid out of his own pocket. Realizing that he would go bankrupt if he continued like this, he had an idea to make clothes by himself, so now he has developed a good DIY skill, and he no longer has to worry about making ends meet.

Voice actress Kaori Satohara quit her current office

If you are currently paying attention to "That's the voice actor! The audience should be aware of the significance of the office to the voice actors. However, recently, Kaori Satohara issued an announcement saying that she had left ProductionAce.

The announcement reads, "I, Kaori Satohara, have retired from ProductionAce, which has been taking care of me for many years. I am now a free person, and I will work hard to increase the opportunity to meet with you, and I hope you will continue to support me, please give me a lot of advice. Judging from her statement, it seems that there is no news of joining other firms immediately, so what is the future prospect of this voice actor? Let's stay tuned.

Kaori Satohara was born on January 18 and has previously starred in films including "Problem Children Are From Another World?" "Sandora Terdorek", "My Brain Love Hindered Option" Jocola, "Inari Love Song" Marutamachi Chika, "ISUCA Eska" Tamako and other characters, and in April this year, he was temporarily suspended due to vocal cord fatigue, so some fans speculated whether this withdrawal from ProductionAce would also be related to his physical condition.

The latest development of the domestic violence incident in Chong Fangding: He has been released by the police

Previously, due to the suspicion of domestic violence against his wife, the writer Oki Fangding, who is well known to anime fans, was arrested by the police. However, according to the latest information, he has been released on the premise of retaining the punishment.

It is still unclear what the outcome of this incident will be, although many netizens complained that "there must be new material after entering!" "Will you come out and distribute bento everywhere to take revenge on society?" "Prison Sight is scheduled to be released in 2016!" But I believe that everyone still doesn't want his creative career to be affected by this incident. Tencent Animation will also pay attention to this.

Hideaki Anno's new movie is suspected to be named "Shin Godzilla"

The news that "Neon Genesis Evangelion" director Hideaki Anno and live-action film version of "Attack on Titan" director Shinji Higuchi jointly made the "Godzilla" movie caused an uproar around the world. Now, according to netizens, the full name of this "Godzilla" movie is suspected to be called "Shin Godzilla (original name: シン·ゴジラ)". This naming method is simply a remake of the 4th part of the new theatrical version of "Neon Genesis Evangelion", "Shin Evangelion Theatrical Version: ▕┃ (original name: シン·エヴァンゲリオン Theatrical Version: ▕┃)".

The source of the news is that some netizens found that a notice posted at Kamata Station in Tokyo that "changed the location of the bus stop due to the filming of the movie", which read: "Due to the filming of the movie "Shin Godzilla", the road in front of the bus stop at Kamata Station will be subject to traffic control, so the use of the bus stop will be suspended. The full name of the movie was revealed on the notice. Because it's not official, it's impossible to determine if this is the official name of the movie. However, this naming method that is exactly the same as "Neon Genesis Evangelion" is really in the style of Hideaki Anno.

"Shin Godzilla" was written and supervised by Hideaki Anno, with Shinji Higuchi as the director. This film is set in Japan, and the Hollywood version of Godzilla, which is far more than 108 meters tall, will become the tallest Godzilla in history, and is scheduled to start filming in the fall of 2015 and be released in Japan in the summer of 2016.

The Japanese drama version of "Unheard of Flower Names" adds actors such as Kyoko Koizumi

The live-action Japanese drama version of the popular original anime "Unheard of Hana" will be broadcast on September 21 at 9 p.m. on Fuji Television.

They play the roles of Renta's parents and the mother of the face code.

Kyoko Koizumi plays the role of Tako, the mother of the male protagonist Renta, who died of illness, and Tako is a character who only appears in memories. This time it is Kyoko Koizumi who has appeared in a Japanese drama again after about 1 year after "Continuation: The Penultimate Love".

Fumiyo Kohinata plays Renta's father, Atsushi, who was raised by him. When talking about why he starred in this work, Kohito said, "Actually, I haven't seen the anime, but my son keeps saying, 'It's amazing!'" Awesome! That's when I made up my mind to act. "He's played a lot of villainous roles lately, but this time he's going to play a father who is very tolerant of his otaku son. He said: "I play a lot of black-bellied men, and I haven't played such a stable person for a long time." He would look at the picture of the tower and gently call out 'Tower, Tower......'"

In addition, Yoko, the mother of the heroine's face code, is played by Yoshida Yoshida, Towada, the fireworks artist who helps Renta, is played by Shohei Hino, Yusuke Ueji, a co-worker who works with Renta, and Kenichi Fujiyoshi, an advisor to the art department to which Tsuruko belongs, is played by Masaya Nakagawa.

"Unheard of Flower Name" is an original TV anime that aired in the spring of 2011. The story tells that after the death of a good friend, a rift appeared between the five childhood sweethearts, but later they got back together because of the appearance of a ghost. After the broadcast of this work, it was unanimously loved by everyone from children to adults. Chichibu, the stage of this work, has also become a holy place that fans often visit. It still has a large fan support to this day. The live-action version stars Hiroshi Murakami.

Based on Kazuhiko Kato's original manga, Zuò's classic anime "Lupin the Third" has previously confirmed that a new series will be broadcast from this fall. Recently, it was officially announced: voice actor Yuki Fujii will participate in this work.

As a voice actor born on May 8, 1985, Fujii is no longer young. And she didn't have the experience of voice actor debut until 2009, and then voiced well-known characters including "Upside Down Patma" Patma and "Gancheng Glorious Amusement Park" Rafafa Furlanza, so she gradually became well-known to everyone. Her role in "Lupin the Third" is named Rebecca. He is the young president of a consortium and is active as a model and actor. Of course, in the work, she will also reveal her unknown secrets, which is worth looking forward to.

Takuya Mitsuta's sequel to the popular baseball manga "Major League Baseball 2nd" released the second volume of the single book on August 18. Now the cumulative sales of only two single books have exceeded 1 million copies. Among the manga published by Shogakukan, the only two works that exceeded one million sales were Hiroshi Arakawa's "Silver Key" published in 2011.

"Major League Baseball" is a popular baseball manga that Takuya Mitsuta has serialized for 16 years in "Weekly Shonen Sunday" (Shogakukan), telling the story of the long growth of a baseball boy Goro whose father unfortunately died. All 78 volumes of the single book have been completed, with a cumulative circulation of 53 million copies. From 2004 to 2010, a TV anime version was also broadcast.

Even if his father's aura would cause him a little distress, he still loved baseball.

In general, the sales of manga monographs only skyrocketed in a short period of time after the anime version was broadcast or after the topic was formed on the Internet, but it is relatively rare for "Major League Baseball 2nd" to sell well as a sequel to a popular work.

The plaster idol group "Plaster Boy" will produce a zuòTV anime

The "Plaster Boys", the only idol group in the world to be composed of plaster statues, announced today (September 1) that they will produce an animated version of zuòTV. A promotional video and lineup that mimicked the form of a press conference were officially announced, and the TV anime version was broadcast in January 2016.

In this promotional video, the agent Miki Ishimoto first greeted the reporters present, and then asked the four plaster statues to speak in turn, but none of the plaster statues spoke, so she couldn't help but be furious on the spot. In the end, the captain still didn't speak, and only announced the news of "TV animation" in the form of video.

The TV anime version began airing in January 2016. The supervisor is Seiki Otaku, the deputy supervisor is Fumimi Usui, the series composition and script are Michiko Yokote, the character setting and general painting supervisor is Ioriko Ito, and the animation production company is LIDENFILMS. The theme song is "Gypsum Boy" sung by Bonjour Suzuki and composed by Mitsusuda Mitsuda.

Judging from the lineup, it should be a more formal TV animation. The audience is most concerned about 3 questions: "What is plaster animation?" "Is there a storyline?" "Can you talk?" Because it's an animation, it will change from three-dimensional to two-dimensional, and the story uses a completely original script to bring a story about the showbiz, and you can also talk and sing! However, the voice actor lineup has not yet been announced, so please look forward to the future renewal of the Tencent Animation Channel.

"Plaster Boys" debuted in April 2015 as the "world's first plaster idol group", and the members of the group are four plaster statues selected from a large number of plaster statues, with the two elements of "beautiful men" and "newcomers". The agent, Miki Ishimoto, studied at an art university, and decided to choose another career direction during his studies, and after graduation, he joined Holbein and became the agent of the gypsum boys. She used her first salary to buy travel vouchers for her parents back home, but her parents used them to come to Tokyo and wanted to take her back. At that time, her parents said something to her that she will never forget: "We didn't raise you for the plaster cast." However, Miki Ishimoto still insisted on being the agent of the plaster statue. This project is full of slots for both idols and agents......

With such an old anime being released now, Toei said, "From a contemporary point of view, although there will be some inappropriate expressions in this article, we will respect the historical value of the work and give priority to faithfully reproducing the state of the work when it was completed." In addition, due to the mastering, it is difficult to repair the fading of the film image and the loss of audio with the current technology, so there are some places where noise can be mixed. ”

"Black Boy of the Jungle Tribe" tells the story of a prince from the kingdom of Pilimi, who is in crisis when he comes to Japan and is rescued by Sara Ri, an elementary school student who has nothing to do. The righteous black boy decided to stay in Japan in order to repay the favor, and when Saratoshi encountered a crisis, Black Boy used the magic he was good at to help, but every time he would be clumsy......

The classic American animation "Iron Giant" may make a sequel

The 1999 animated classic "The Iron Giant" will be re-screened twice on September 30 and October 4 local time in the United States, to make up for the regret of audiences who did not go to the cinema to see the film that year. In this regard, Vin Diesel, who voiced the "Iron Giant" in the film, supported the re-screening on Facebook and revealed the possibility of a sequel.

Vin Diesel wrote on Facebook: "I've been lucky enough to have so many interesting roles, and one of my favorites is the Iron Giant. Also, don't be surprised if Warner Pictures announces a sequel...... "Vin Diesel was a little-known star when he voiced the Iron Giant, and only worked on Fast and Furious two years later. His remarks seem to be intended to build momentum for Warner Pictures to announce the sequel, and the film itself also has an open-ended ending, which makes many fans excited.

Directed by Brad Bird, "Iron Giant" did not do well at the box office when it was released, but in the years that followed, due to the continuous popularity of good word-of-mouth, it gradually became a classic in animated films. In 2004, Brad Bird directed "The Incredibles" for Pixar, making him one of Hollywood directors. Now, "The Incredibles 2" is about to start filming, and if "Iron Giant" is also going to make a sequel, it is doubtful whether Bird can continue to direct.

So far, there has been no more news about "Iron Giant 2", and maybe there will be new developments when it is re-released on September 30.

General Zod won't be returning to Ultra Bat? Shannon said to tease you

Michael Shannon, who plays the villain General Zod in "Superman: Man of Steel," made a big joke with the press and fans last month. In a previous interview, Shannon revealed that he will appear in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice with wax webbing on his fingers. Recently, the actor said that his return to "Super Bat" with webbing was just a story he made up casually.

"The last time someone asked me about it in New York, I made up this ridiculous answer that General Zod would appear in Ultra Bat with his webbed, and it went viral, and people kept asking me about it later." In an interview with TheDailyBeast, Michael Shannon said: "It's obviously a terrible and ridiculous story, okay? But people are serious. ”

Shannon said that he did not appear in "Batman v Superman", but strangely, his image appeared in the trailer of the film. To this, he said: "It's a really embarrassing situation, I appeared in the trailer of a movie that I didn't even participate in. However, Shannon is not completely uninvolved in the filming of "Super Bat", and he will still return to this superhero sequel, but in the form of sound.

"The premise of K-star as I understand it seems to be like this - even if we destroy it, the creatures on the planet will continue to exist as ghosts." Shannon explains, "I went to the set and did some voice work and it looked like a ghost or something in the film. But I don't know if that's appropriate. Of course, we're not sure if these are just another joke by Michael Shannon.

"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" is directed by Zack Snyder and starring Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jesse Eisenberg and others, and will be released in North America on March 25, 2016.
