Chapter 90: "Borrowing and Returning"
Being able to sing OP for a super popular TV anime of the level of "Naruto", or simply being able to receive a request from the Clown Society to produce a meta request, is also worth paying attention to for any singer. This also illustrates the repercussions of the "Black Rock Shooter" in terms of music...... Or just say the word "success".
For example, even a singer of Namie Amuro's level has sung OP for "ONE PIECE".
Although the singer himself doesn't seem to care too much about the response to the song because of his identity, Neko has actually become quite popular until now.
And if you mention the most representative OP during the super long broadcast period of "Naruto", it is almost indisputable that it should be "Blue Bird" sung by the singer group "Bio Chief", but that song should indeed be used in the "Shippuden" part, not the current original chapter.
Considering that when he was doing "Black Rock Shooter" before, Miyayo had already borrowed one of the OP "LOVERS" from "Naruto", so now it should be a situation of "borrowing and returning", rather than moving the later songs to the front - of course, these are just his illogical brain activities, and have nothing to do with the truth and "truth".
He just does what he wants.
But the question is, what song to use?
After Asami left, Miyayo began to think...... He decided to decide the matter within five minutes.
Then he happened to see the storyboard of "The Flying Witch" at hand, and then he thought of the OP of this anime, "シャンランラン feat.96 cat", so in the end he decided to take out a song called chAngE. (Note)
Whether it's lyrics or songs, this song is apt for an anime adapted from a shonen manga like "Naruto".
After all, this kind of animation still has a universality.
This decision instantly achieved Miyadai's two goals, first, he returned a Naruto song, even though the song was "borrowed" from other works; Second...... It only took him two minutes to decide on something like this.
…………
As he said before, Gong Daisheng has been really busy during this period of time.
The main reason is that after a TV animation starts playing,It's a new episode every week.,But it takes two months to make such an episode of animation.,But the broadcast cycle of the season is only 3 months...... So once the animation starts airing, it's going to be stuffed with a lot of stuff in such a short production time.
In addition to production and playback, Miyadai also has to pay attention to the correction of the number of episodes after the anime is played, as well as matters related to production and release.
In general, his entire summer vacation will be spent on this time.
"So-kun, we're going to contact the producer soon, but about the number of production...... How to determine this. ”
Not long after Asami Fuyushiro left, Iwami Mai brought such a problem to Miyadai.
Theoretically, these things would generally be subject to the judgment of the producer, but with the current single corporate structure of Mad Poihat, the other units except for Miyadai Solo lack the judgment function. In the absence of both a basis for judgment and a lack of inertial experience, Iwami Mai basically has little ability to play...... It's not that she can't make judgments, but that she lacks confidence in her own judgments.
"What is the pricing like...... I'm referring to the pricing per volume of the First Time Limited. Miyadai asked.
When selling animation discs, it's not just about selling regular discs, people are used to stuffing a lot of messy things into it, or character design drafts, or other pictures, etc., with the aim of raising the sales price after the name is "limited".
"6,200 yen." Iwami said.
Each volume has the capacity of two episodes of animation, and such a disc sells for more than three or four hundred yuan...... It seems that enough "respect" is "respected" to the fruits of Mad Poihat's labor.
"That'...... How about the Print 3000? Miyadai asked back in a tone that wasn't quite sure.
At this price, if all six volumes can sell 3,000 sets each, and then consider the production cost of 100 million yen for "The Flying Witch", it seems to be enough to pay for itself. However, in practice, it is impossible to calculate in this way, because in addition to the production costs, there are also the problems of production and printing costs and sales costs.
"I also think 3000 is more appropriate, it's better to be conservative." Iwami Mai said, it seems that Miyadai's statement is more in line with her expectations.
However, Miyashiro actually hoped to sell the 3,000 sets in the first week after the release began...... For an everyday anime like "The Flying Witch", it's actually impossible to call this kind of thinking "conservative".
After determining the initial quantity, Iwami Mai had to contact the manufacturer to make a confirmation, which was not a problem for her, and from a gloomy point of view, such printing production units, especially those in Kyoto, were still within the influence and radiation of Kyoto TV.
But because she was busy with such things, the things that Gong Daisang encountered after a day's work were more pleasant - he went to a movie alone rather tragically.
But it's not so much that he went to the movies, but that he went to the cinema to see the audience's reaction.
He went to see the newly released animated film this summer, the animated film "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time and Space" directed by Yasutaka Tsutsui and Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, and Mamoru Hosoda, the animation supervisor of the "newcomer".
"The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" is the first time that Mamoru Hosoda, an animation supervisor with a unique style, has shown this "unique style", and although this is technically his second solo feature-length anime, his first anime is a theatrical version of One Piece, which is an anime that he can't let him play freely.
Basically, Mamoru Hosoda is an animation director associated with the "shadowless technique", and thanks to his long-term experience in the animation industry, it can basically be said that "the girl who has traveled through time and space" from the story to the picture is already quite a mature work.
Because it is a work funded by Kadokawa Shoten, the promotion of "The Girl Who Leaps Through Time and Space" has been relatively sufficient since last year, but when Miyadai came to the theater, he found that the attendance rate was not as high as he imagined.
Concentrate:
chAngE is the OP of Season 12 of the Grim Reaper, and like the OP of the Flying Witch, this song was also composed and sung by the mini (148cm) singer-songwriter miwa.
This height is comparable to the Osaka River.
