Tokyo Sound

"An injured comrade, facing a desperate situation, in this situation, he bravely stood in front of the crisis with a sword in hand, and took back the chance of life by himself. I think this is what every boy has done, a dream similar to becoming a hero." Yoshino Yoshiki nodded, "As a male, what do you think of Takizawa-san?"

"As the boss, I don't think it's good." The man answered simply, "I had all the tricks and the advantage, but in the end I was defeated by the sudden outburst of the young man. My desires and ambitions were wasted. As long as you have the destiny, you can ignore the accumulation of wisdom and resources. This is not good. The impact on young people is immeasurable."

"At this time, don't use Oberon's perspective, use the perspective of an ordinary boy. Break through the desperate situation with one sword. Don't wait until dawn, but directly tear apart the darkness before dawn. Isn't this the meaning of romance?" said Yoshino Yoshiki.

"That has nothing to do with me. If I encounter this kind of death game, I will definitely stay in the first-level Novice Village and wait for the officials and technicians to crack the firewall and pull me out." The man was sure.

"Isn't this okay? Even if I keep receiving IV drips at the hospital, my real body won't be able to handle it."

"Is there another possibility? I can kill wild boars until they reach the maximum level before going out? Become the Sword God of the starting town?" the man said. "Besides, it's also good to practice production professions. Why should I be obsessed with fighting?"

"It is because of this lack of fighting spirit, Nobuyuki Sugo... that you lost to Kirito." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu interrupted.

"You used the administrator account to cheat, so is there a problem if I can't beat you?" the man was not convinced.

"You opened it first." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu retorted subconsciously.

"..."

"What a deep brotherly love." Yoshino Yoshiki nodded, "Then let's watch the clip selected by Maeda-san."

The light dimmed again and the picture appeared on the big screen.

The pungent smell of disinfectant, the warm quilt that has been exposed to the sun, the sweet fragrance of fruit. When I opened my eyes, it was as if the sun I hadn't seen in a century was piercing my eyes. Tears flowed down unconsciously, pulled by gravity.

A deep sadness and loss remains in my heart, and the previous farewells and confessions are still echoing in my ears.

The pale-skinned boy rolled over uncontrollably off the bed, struggling to get up with his skinny arms that were barely enough to lift the interpreter. He pulled out the IV needle on the inside of his elbow and the electrodes on his body, and inertialy used his fingers to draw a trajectory in the air, but the command menu or something did not appear at all.

He was stunned for a moment, and after he came to his senses, he didn't feel particularly moved or happy, but just smiled quietly with relief.

“Asuna…”

My throat, which had not been used for several years, was sore because of the occurrence.

The young man pulled off the NERvGear on his head, leaned on the IV stand, hunched over and gasped like an old man, and slowly walked out the door, into the corridor, and into the light coming in from the window.

He wants to find the beloved girl who will face the end of the world with him.

The screen ends.

"Oh~ It's this part. I feel inexplicably moved." Yoshino Yoshiki also applauded with the audience.

"I originally wanted to choose a scene earlier, when the two of them were overlooking the disintegrating floating steel castle in the clouds and revealing their true feelings to each other, but I think the scene later, when they return to reality and Kirito forces himself to look for someone and disappears into the glory, is better. It is also the end and beginning of a season." Haruka Tomatsu explained.

"After all, it's the end of a story." Yoshino Yoshiki said, "What does Matsuoka-san think?"

"Well... I cried during this part." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu scratched his head in embarrassment. "That scene, seeing the skinny boy who fought to the end, standing up and continuing to walk, I couldn't help myself. For Kirito, the battle in Aincrad is not over until he holds Asuna's hand in reality, right?"

"That's actually the case. Doesn't it continue with the Fairy Dance chapter afterwards?" Yoshino Yoshiki nodded.

"Yes, it was all done by Nobuyuki Sugo. He is such an irredeemable villain. Not only did he illegally detain people, he also tried to manipulate their emotions. It is unforgivable. The bad influence he has had on the children is immeasurable." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu said in a deep voice.

"Huh? Mr. Matsuoka, are you the kind of person who takes love very seriously and is loyal? It seems like you really hate the idea of ​​beautiful and pure feelings being destroyed?" Yoshino Yoshiki was curious.

"Yes, I don't like stories where a love relationship ends in tragedy." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu nodded vigorously.

"No wonder you hate Nobuyuki Sugo so much. What does the voice actor of the Elf King think about this?" Yoshino Yoshinori asked skillfully.

"How can a relationship that has not been tested be convincing? Romeo and Juliet, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, the waiter in Yuhang Town and the little girl in Xianling Island. It is precisely because of these examples of resisting fate that the value of love is recognized and respected by the world."

Master Yin spoke eloquently in front of hundreds of people in the audience.

"Everyone can imagine, if there were no despicable people like me, what problems would Kirito and Asuna encounter in the real world? The first is class prejudice. When a rich entrepreneur's daughter and a young man fall in love, the parents will object. Look at Yuuki's mother, isn't she always dissatisfied with Kirito, a boy addicted to the Internet? Yuuki's father has always treated him with normal courtesy and never treated him as a son-in-law. On the contrary, he values ​​me, a top student and a social elite with an annual income of seven figures. Later, due to my efforts, Yuuki's father knew that Kirito had a manly side, and Yuuki's mother also reluctantly nodded. Only I was left with the burden. Everyone is happy, and it is cause for celebration."

"Should I thank you?" Matsuoka Yoshitsugu was stunned.

"What else? In my hometown, after the deal is done, I have to give a red envelope to the matchmaker and treat him to a meal." Yin Ze hinted.

"...You two have opposing viewpoints. Don't you usually quarrel when you get along with each other?" asked Yoshino Yoshiki.

"Well, as a good friend, I feel it is my obligation to correct his distorted tendencies." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu thought for a moment.

"Does the kind and simple Mr. Matsuoka have a girlfriend?" asked the host.

"No."

"Does the dangerous-looking Takizawa-san have a girlfriend?" the host asked again.

"nor."

"Then why are you two single men discussing infidelity and cheating? Does it make sense?" the host was surprised.

"What are you talking about? To be a coach of a professional team, do you have to be a world champion first? Moreover, we are at the stage of enriching ourselves and working hard to make progress. In comparison, how about being a host?" Yin Ze counterattacked defensively.

"I graduated from Qingying University, bought a house in full, got married, have a beautiful wife and a lovely daughter." The host nodded.

"..."

"..."

The two young men were speechless. One was ashamed of his education from a prestigious university and his dream of having a happy family, while the other was shocked that the house was paid in full with no mortgage repayment.

"Let's strike while the iron is hot. Please enjoy Mr. Ito's selection of his favorite clips," Yoshino Yoshiki continued.

The light dims and the picture appears.

"Ji-a ...

The sound comes before the image.

The piercing wail of thousands of rusty gears spread throughout the space. The gorgeously dressed Elf King was dragged up by the hair by the black-clad swordsman for execution. He thrust his sword with all his strength, but only the blade could be seen piercing through the silhouette of Oberon's head. The white flames spread out at once, completely burning and dissolving the arrogant villain.

Simple and crude.

There was loud applause from the audience, and the voice actors on the stage covered their mouths and couldn't help laughing. The photographer turned the camera specifically to a certain man. He pulled the corners of his mouth and tried to hold back his aloofness for a few seconds, but finally couldn't hold it back anymore and kept shaking his head and laughing.

"It seems that everyone likes this. But every time I listen to it, I think it's amazing. Is this cry really made by Takizawa-san? It doesn't match your original voice at all. Your real voice is very gorgeous." Yoshino Shonori praised, "This is the skill of being a voice actor. But why did Ito-san choose this?"

"This is a powerful performance, isn't it?" Ito Kase Hui said earnestly, holding the microphone with both hands. "Although the audience watching the animation will think this character is disgusting, from our professional perspective, the performance is really good. Especially on the set, watching his performance live, the sense of power is really strong. Although Yui is the little cotton-padded jacket of her parents, but in this segment, I really want to applaud Takizawa-kun."

"Yes, the acting is so good that it makes me like Nobuyuki Sugo." Tomatsu Haruka said with a smile.

"It's stressful to act with him in that state," Matsuoka Yoshitsugu said truthfully.

It’s worthy of my single push.

The group friends below the stage also nodded repeatedly.

Being able to portray a character as one that feels hatred for the person himself, but also a distorted love for the actor himself, presenting this kind of Schrodinger effect-like success, the acting skills of this person who I recommend alone are really powerful!

"Unanimous praise, would you mind telling me the secret?" Yoshino Yoshinori said excitedly.

"The important thing is that you enjoy the process." The man borrowed a famous quote from a scumbag producer and gestured with one hand, "Find the qualities you don't have and bring them out. I'd like to reiterate that this role is challenging for me. Relatively speaking, I also want to play something normal, even if I have fewer scenes."

"Oh? Can you give me an example?"

"Well, this is a character from the sequel. Is it appropriate to talk about it now?"

"It's okay. The secret PV will be released at the end of today's event. Just treat it as a warm-up. But I can't tell you anything too core."

"That's good. In the second season, there's a character named 'Kyouji Shinkawa' who has very few scenes, but he's surprisingly an ordinary student that tests your ability to be portrayed. He also has a confrontation scene with Kirito. I'd really like to try it if the production team is willing to give me a chance." The man said modestly.

"I see. Although he has few roles, he is a presence that attracts the attention of voice actors. He must be extraordinary." The host was unaware of him.

...I don't believe you at all, Matsuoka Yoshitsugu rarely showed a speechless expression.

As a super dedicated person who has read all the novels in the Sword Saint series, he knows the content and plot of this character very well. A true youth version of Sugo Nobuyuki. Isn't the relationship back after going around in circles?

"Then next is Ms. Hidaka's choice. Please watch."

The big screen started working again.

"Levels and the like are just numbers, and the power of this world is just an illusion. We have more important things than these. So let's meet in the real world next time. That way, we can be friends again." The black-clad swordsman said in a gentle tone.

"Okay, I will. It's a deal."

Silica smiled from the bottom of her heart and said that she really wanted to throw herself into the arms of the man in front of her, but she no longer had any extravagant expectations.

"Then call Bina back."

'good! ’

'Sprinkle the dew from the flowers on the feathers, and Bina will be resurrected.'

'I see……'

Looking at the long aqua-blue feathers, Silica whispered in her heart.

Bina... I have so many things to tell you. About today's exciting adventure, and about the man who helped Bina and acted as my brother for a day. With tears in her eyes, Silica gently poured the flower in her right hand onto the feather.

The screen ends.

"Kirito is such a gentle guy, and his luck with women is indeed as strong as Takizawa-san said before. This is the nth girl he has had an entanglement with. It's really enviable. Don't you think so, Matsuoka-san?" Yoshino Yoshiki asked deliberately.

"Well, well, it's just lending a helping hand to someone in trouble, it can't be considered amorous... can a gentle personality be considered romantic?" Matsuoka Yoshitsugu's cheeks flushed as he stammered, followed by some incomprehensible words like "bond", "I like Asuna", etc.

"Wait, why does Takizawa-san over there look like he doesn't care and thinks so? Did you expect Miss Hidaka's favorite?" Yoshino Yoshinori asked.

"Of course, what else is there to choose from besides this part? The others didn't last more than 10 seconds, right?" The man shrugged.

"Huh? Is that the tone? What do you mean there's nothing to choose from? This is a single episode special!" Hidaka Rina said indignantly.

“But with the same treatment, I think Leeds next door is more…” The man frowned.

"Why? Look at Silica too!" The girl left her seat angrily and walked over to hit her. She could only dodge quickly.

Matsuoka Yoshitsugu stuck his head out to watch the fun, gloating.

The audience in the audience saw the dramatic interaction and burst into laughter.

Chapter 56 There is a kind of love called letting go

"Finally, let's take a look at the clip selected by Mr. Takizawa. What famous scene will it be?" Yoshino Yoshinori continued to host the process.

The lights dimmed for the fifth time, and the stage fell into darkness for the fifth time.

Before the image is played.

"It can't be that Kirito-kun is bullying Asuna in front of him, right?" Matsuoka Yoshitsugu's microphone was not turned off, and his voice came out faintly in the shadows.

"Am I that kind of person?" someone replied in the same low voice.

“That’s hard to say…”

The next second, the screen lit up.

The young swordsman ran towards the sunset. The muddy path seemed far from his destination. From now on, there were several battlefields, long years, encounters and separations waiting for him. The swordsman seemed to have a premonition of everything ahead. He roared vigorously and roared passionately, like the tip of a sword, pointing straight to the end of this destiny.

The angry voice penetrated the venue through the sound equipment, and everyone could feel the heat and determination contained in it.

"Oh..." Yoshino Yoshino said in a long voice, which was a bit unexpected. "This is where all the stories began. Can you tell me why you chose this part?"

"Well, this has to start from the very beginning. I actually auditioned for the role of Kirito, and the sound director said that I have become a candidate. If nothing unexpected happens, I will take on everything in Sword Sanctuary." Yin Ze said slowly.

"How could such a thing happen? This is a rare behind-the-scenes secret." Yoshino Yoshiki asked curiously.

"But now everyone knows the result. The accident happened, and he was sitting over there." Yin Ze pointed at his friend, "That day, he, another friend and I went to the audition together. Although we are good partners on weekdays, we were competitors who refused to give in during those few hours."

"Although I gave my best in the audition and was appreciated by the creative team, as for the reason for my loss... everyone has heard the roar just now, right? The answer is in the sound." Yin Ze said with relief, "I lost sincerely and am proud of my friend's excellent and amazing performance. There is something I have wanted to say for a long time - the role of Kirito must be you, I can't think of anyone else except you."

"Your hard work will eventually attract the attention of fate, which will make you waste time, but also give you gifts. This is only the first one."

Matsuoka Yoshitsugu looked at his friend giving him a thumbs up and never expected such heartfelt words. He was a beat late before responding with the same gesture.

"No, the first gift from fate was not this job." Matsuoka Yoshitsugu was not good at beating around the bush and spoke directly to his mind, "It was meeting you that winter."

"Why is there no room for us? I'm obviously the heroine." Haruka Tomatsu, who was caught in the middle, complained innocently, "Why don't you just sit together?"

"Can we really change positions?" Matsuoka Yoshitsugu was eager to try and was very tempted.

"No, no, this distance is nothing to us." Yin Ze waved his hand.

"If even Kirito likes Nobuyuki Sugo, who can stop the villain?"

"I think Silica seems to be able to do it." Ito Kasehui said meaningfully, "After all, she is a senior. Silica is the only one on the set who can make him leave work later."

"Using the seniors from Osawa Office to suppress the youngsters from our IM Club shows such great power." Master Yin snorted.

"Wait, your mixing of real relationships and role relationships is really too complicated." Yoshino Yoshiki said repeatedly, "Please also take care of me, a husband with a well-behaved daughter whose logic is not as sharp as when he was young. But it's a good thing that everyone is getting better and better, especially Takizawa-san, who is gradually letting go and being infected by his restrained silence. This is good."

Yes, I have to remember my aloof personality today. It's really dangerous. If I'm not careful, my true nature will be revealed. Friendship must be put aside. The man's face immediately became serious.

"Then let's move on to the second stage. The staff are ready." Yoshino Yoshiki said, and a staff member pushed a table with small cardboard boxes on it to the stage. "Then please invite the representatives of the protagonist group and the villain group to come forward and draw lots."

"Okay - I will protect the dignity of all villains. Who says that the gentle male protagonist's Starburst Air Stream Slash is better than the older boss driving a Mercedes-Benz? You four, come on together!" As the only villain, the man did not shirk his responsibility and stood up directly with great heroism.
