Do I really have a thing for female voice actors?

"Wouldn't that be even worse?"

"First, I'll keep you hanging on, then I'll say I only see you as a friend. After that, I won't change anything. Instead of deliberately distancing myself, I'll treat you even more gently."

"Who could stand it?"

"...You're right."

As expected, older female voice actors have unique perspectives.

Tazaki Toru said he learned something.

After expressing her thoughts, Ms. Minase's sparkling eyes revealed a hint of curiosity.

So, are you really playing both sides?

“I do not believe I have ever done such a thing.”

"Tsk! Why do you talk like that? Let me rephrase my question, would you like that?"

"Of course not."

"Don't be shy! If you want to be a scumbag, just be one. What's so shameful about it?"

Tazaki Toru sighed softly and reiterated, "I don't want to."

"It's also possible that they don't want to for the time being."

"........."

You can't reason with this woman.

"I always felt that Ms. Minase was trying to get me to do that."

"Don't blame me, I'm just an outsider. If you can change your behavior because of my words, it means it's not that I changed you, but that you wanted to do it from the beginning and just lacked a reason to convince yourself."

It must be said that Toru Tazaki agrees with this statement.

However, he didn't quite like some of the things Ms. Minase said.

Or rather, Toru Tazaki was very reluctant to become the kind of person she described.

"So, Ms. Minase, do you think it's better if the person you like is a jerk?"

"I don't care, I just love scumbags."

"........."

Sure enough, we couldn't see eye to eye.

Tazaki Toru was completely baffled. How could a popular voice actress and famous singer like Minase have such thoughts?

Her boyfriend has had a lot of scandals, but he's not a complete scumbag, is he?

Tazaki Toru is not interested in, nor does he want to know, the behind-the-scenes gossip about voice actors.

Tazaki Toru was already embarrassed by accidentally witnessing their meeting last time, and he didn't want to get involved.

However, while Tazaki Toru didn't want to know, Minase-san was extremely curious.

She craned her neck and looked over with great interest.

"So, you have many girls around you who are eyeing you covetously?"

“I never said that. It’s just that in that kind of work environment, it’s inevitable to deal with them.”

"Work environment..." Ms. Minase was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly realized.

"So you're talking about female voice actors?"

"........."

This woman has such keen intuition.

Miss Minase almost burst out laughing: "Then you've come to the right person. I know this all too well."

"No, I wasn't asking you."

""

Let me give you some advice.

"Based on your previous statements, I don't think Ms. Minase's advice will be effective."

"What? Is this how you treat your seniors?"

"I'm very sorry, but I'm neither willing to compromise on principles nor do I want to give Ms. Minase any perfunctory answers or say things against my conscience to agree with you at this time."

"Tsk! Your personality is even more troublesome than that person's."

Tazaki Toru could probably guess who she was talking about.

Miss Minase waved her hand: "Alright, alright, since you don't want to listen, I won't meddle anymore."

"Thank you."

She puffed out her cheeks and waved to the shop assistant not far away.

"Another B set meal, please."

...Still eating?

In the end, Ms. Minase paid for the meal.

This was the first time Tazaki Toru had ever seen a female voice actress who could eat three set meals in one sitting; he had certainly learned something new today.

Tazaki Toru felt that this industry veteran was very different from the impression he gave when they first met.

Initially, it might have been because Mika Kohinata liked her filter, but through repeated interactions, Toru Tazaki discovered her true nature, which was quite different from what she portrayed on screen.

On the surface, they are kind and approachable, but in private they might secretly complain about the people around them, unleashing their dark side.

Tazaki Toru was afraid that she would write something down in her little notebook.

In short, it's best to avoid too much contact.

Despite Tazaki Toru's apparent ease among female voice actresses, the main reason is that the voice actresses at MyGO are all young girls with relatively simple minds.

Even Tazaki Toru couldn't withstand those experienced opponents.

After saying goodbye to Ms. Minase, Toru Tazaki arrived at the station and, after a moment's hesitation, headed to Bushido's recording studio.

While the girls' feelings were troubling him, Toru Tazaki couldn't bring himself to ignore them or deliberately distance himself from them.

Even after learning about Aoki Hina and Tachibana Rin's feelings, Tazaki Toru still stayed in that house.

Perhaps at some point, Toru Tazaki did have the thought that it might be better for him to leave.

But in the end he didn't do it.

Tazaki Toru is not the kind of person who can easily sever ties with emotions, just like those two female voice actresses who valued him so much and tried every means to keep him.

Tazaki Toru also longed to stay in that house.

Instead of deliberately distancing themselves, they treated each other with even greater tenderness.

Miss Minase's words were like a shallow cut in his heart.

Tazaki Toru has always believed that his actions are reasonable and correct, and he has always adhered to the principle of treating people kindly.

But it is precisely this approach that seems to have drawn them all into this vortex, from which no one can escape.

Tazaki Toru couldn't predict how it would ultimately turn out.

But there was one thing that Toru Tazaki became certain of.

Even after learning how the girls felt, he still didn't change his behavior.

Besides his unwillingness to change his principles, he may have another thought in his subconscious:

Once he makes a change, those girls will consciously realize his aloofness and thus withdraw from his life.

But Toru Tazaki wants to keep them by his side.

From this perspective, he is indeed a man who is never satisfied with his desires.

539. Yang Jie, don't look, there's a cow. (Seeking monthly votes)

Upon arriving at Bushido's recording studio, they discovered that neither of the two bands were practicing today. Toru Tazaki inquired at the front desk and learned that they had gone to participate in the official recording of the first episode of the anime, and the bands' rehearsal time had been postponed.

Tazaki Toru almost forgot that voice acting was the main job of these band girls.

Um... I think so?

As he passed by a recording studio, he noticed another band practicing inside. Looking through the window, he recognized them as Morfonica.
