Tokyo Sound

"The last sentence isn't in the original novel, right?" a soft voice came from the other end of the phone.

"It was me who suggested that Brother Wu Ben add it." The man smiled.

"why?"

"No one is sure whether there will be a second season, so we don't want to leave any regrets. Although it's still an ambiguous statement that hasn't been said, the intensity is just right. How is it? In your opinion?"

"Hehe, it's not so bad." Risa Taneda leaned against the window, looking at the night view in the distance, without commenting.

"Then I feel relieved." Yin Ze took a sip of wine.

……

A feeling of emptiness that is yet to be fulfilled.

The familiar ED sounded.

This is Kyoto Animation's usual creative ending, but the biggest surprise of the finale comes just a few seconds later.

First up is the credits for each episode.

After the familiar voice actor lineup, pages of repetitive fields began to emerge.

After watching the film, Tsuchiya Hongliang sat on the sofa and didn't dare to say a word. It took him a long time to come back to his senses from the extremely high-quality finale. He ignored the scattered cookies and looked down at his phone. The chat group was refreshing like crazy.

In a house in Tokyo.

A young man's face popped out from behind the lid of an instant noodle bowl.

He pushed up the frame of his glasses which was slipping a little and moved closer to the TV.

Inevitably remembering the name that was repeated many times.

I have never heard of such an amazing person...

I really hope that one day in the future, I can work with such a guy.

But before that, I still have a lot to do.

The young man picked up the instant noodles, drank the soup, turned around and went back to the computer where he was working.

Chapter 62 Thank You

Kashiwa Ippei woke up from his bed, yawned as he went to the toilet, washed his face and brushed his teeth, yawned as he threw all his clothes and pants into the laundry tub, yawned as he disposed of the leftovers from the takeout, yawned as he collapsed on the sofa, rubbing his middle-aged man's beer belly and browsing his phone. The female anchor of the morning news was very beautiful, which made people happy.

Being a qualified real estate agent means waking up every day and reading and responding to many messages and emails.

Last night, he went in and out of a high-end izakaya in Shinjuku three times, and fought eight large bottles at night, just like the beggar version of Zhao Zilong. He also went to a massage parlor in Shibuya in the middle of the night, which can be called the beggar version of crossing the river in white clothes. After returning, he slept for half the night with his arms around the toilet, and only climbed back to the single bed when he woke up from the cold.

Let me see what kind of dinner party I will attend today, what kind of heroes I will fight, and more importantly, I will see if there is any brand new idol project that I can use. A good director can fully tap the potential of an actor, and a good agent can also fully tap the potential of the talents under his management.

There are a lot of messages on my phone, more than twice as many as usual.

"Wow, Kashiwai-san! You have incredible luck!"

Ok?

"Draw the God Card! You must be smiling so brightly now, even Malik can't compare to you. When are you going to treat the brothers to champagne?"

"A gentleman is also on guard? Treating colleagues as outsiders? Hiding things from others?"

"Last time, didn't you complain that the team was losing its morale and was hard to lead? Brother, I'm willing to take over. If you're interested, we can meet in private to discuss it in detail."

"Hello, considering the three-year itch, do you have any thoughts on changing jobs recently?"

Kashiwa Ippei's face was full of confusion.

What the hell is going on? Why are there so many meaningless congratulations all of a sudden? Did I win the lottery I bought at the convenience store? No way, if I have this kind of fate, I won't be able to win another bottle of beverage even if I buy one.

One day, you wake up from a hangover and suddenly find that everyone in your circle of friends is looking at you with a smile, applauding and congratulating you. This makes people confused and terrified.

Has my brother been chosen by the United Nations to be the executor of the Human Instrumentality Project? The moment of judgment has arrived, and the Third Impact is approaching?

Kashiwa Ippei frowned, yawned, and clicked on the various web links in the message that did not have any danger warnings. His phone automatically jumped to the web page.

It turned out to be a staff list.

Ordinary, nothing special.

It's just that someone is also among them, but he is a voice actor, so it's not surprising that he is on the staff list.

But why is the repetition rate so high???

Ok?

This is not a CV?

Kashiwa Ippei's eyes became filled with doubt and uncertainty.

He watched a short animation clip on the Internet and then moved around on the Twitter account.

……

"HiroyukiOkiura: ...Top-notch back, Masuji. Forgive me for only being able to sigh, but you are still as good as ever."

"Masaaki Yuasa: Two weeks? Three people? This quality? Really?! (ΩДΩ)"

"ToshioSuzuki: I showed it to the old men in my company this morning (*^▽^*), and they asked if this was going to set a standard for TV anime. Please, don't do that."

"Mamoru Hosoda: I really want to come and experience this incredibly efficient management and production method..."

"@ItouTomohiko: There is a person with the same name as Nobuyuki Sugo's CV...huh?"

"Keihiro Komori @Omori: What happened??"

"Nagasaki Yukinsu@nan: Huh? No? What is this?!"

……

Sweat broke out on Kashiwa Ippei's forehead as he stepped directly into the main character's territory.

Just check the man's Twitter account. The latest update was published 18 hours ago, forwarding the official news about the completion of Hyouka. As a relevant person, Classic just forwarded the message without typing a single word.

But this extremely lazy repost comment section is already crowded with people.

"You're playing me??"

"The account owner's self-introduction includes the phrase 'funny blogger'. I declare that this is the most successful joke on the account."

"Smashed! Smashed you! I was browsing secretly! Now it's on the trending search list. From now on, we old fans can no longer enjoy everything from the promoter alone (sad)"

"The peerless master has disappeared since he dropped to the platinum rank. It is said that he went to make an animation. Now it seems that the peerless master may really have disappeared."

"I was very moved when I watched it last night, but it suddenly occurred to me that Nobuyuki Sugo and Houtarou were voiced by the same person..."

"Brother is so handsome, can you take more selfies?"

"Attention, you vulgar fans of beauty, this is an academic discussion area."

There is a lot of information in the hot reviews.

"Moe Pioneer: I was so excited after watching it last night that I couldn't sleep. I tossed and turned until dawn before I fell asleep. When I woke up and took a look, it really caused a heated discussion. This should be the best and most beautiful TV animation in recent years. The 20 minutes are completely self-contained, just like a short youth film. What's even more incredible is that all the performance links, original animation, and other core things were completed by only 3 people in more than 10 days... This is almost an impossible task, not to mention that the middle sheet was damaged before. But I visited the studio a month ago, and I can say with certainty that this is true. It is indeed the voice actor himself who did it. Click here to view the interview transcript and photos——"

"Austrian boyfriend: Muah!"

"Dreams of middle-aged and elderly women in the Eastern Hemisphere: Haha, to put it simply, I can't accept it."

"Brother Dong: It's you again. I can't sit idly by as a righteous person. Come! Fight me!"

……

Ah? ?

Kashiwai Ippei originally opened his mouth to yawn, but now he couldn't close it.

what is this?

Kashiwa Ippei stared at the hot topics #Hyouka Ending# and #Animation Supervisor Seiyuu#...

What kind of monster is this?! Which world line is this?

The agent was silent, petrified on the sofa.

"をきらし心をおさえて~?久しぶりねと君が笑う~?"

The cell phone rang. The ringtone was a classic song with a strong sense of the times, "Kimi is a Rose, You Are Beautiful". This was certainly not his style. It was changed at the instigation of some evil dragon.

"Hello...?" Kashiwai Ippei answered the phone, still in a daze.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Kashiwai Ippei from ImEnterprise?" The other party was quite polite.

"I'm."

"I haven't made an appointment yet, so I'm sorry to bother you with this hasty call. It's like this, we sincerely invite Mr. Takizawa Satoru from your company to join our female idol project. We all agree that Mr. Takizawa has the potential to open up a new era! Don't worry about the salary, the price is up to you! The style of the song, the stage character setting, we can discuss it! Our sincerity is definitely the best in Japan!"

Kashiwai Ippei accurately captured words such as "female-oriented", "idol planning", and "you name the price".

Finally, the long-awaited turning point is right in front of you, and you have to consider whether this is your only chance in this life.

I really want to agree to it without hesitation, drive a Mercedes, ride in a BMW, and change my car to a Prova.

but.

The agent's lips trembled slightly.

He couldn't speak.

It was just a conversation that happened within a month, but it seemed like a lifetime ago. It appeared before my eyes like a revolving lantern.

"Then from now on, I will never mention the word 'idol' in front of Poseidon! I will never interfere with your slacking off! Your career plan is entirely up to you! If you want to audition, go ahead, I will do it first and ask your agent for permission later! "

"Okay! It's already said!"

'The third speed in the universe is hard to catch up with!'

'Big business!'

'Big business!'

'Ha ha ha ha--'

The clinking of water glasses is the sound of dreams withering and scattering.

Oh no, I have been sidelined and usurped.

This is a conspiracy.

A long-dormant assassination plot!

I regret that I agreed to that despicable guy! !

The business cooperation fell through, and along with it the good life disappeared.

When I entered the voice actor group of the agency again, I saw my dear brother arguing about this matter with someone.

Kashiwa Ippei lost all his strength and lay peacefully on the sofa, just wanting to take advantage of his free time to have a good sleep and forget all his troubles. He hoped that when he woke up, the world would jump back to its original path.

……

In addition to normal affairs, Kyoto Animation's official website also has staff publishing some daily articles.

"Hello everyone, I'm Takemoto. I received a gift today, a Hina doll accessory. This accessory is a music box with a clockwork spring. When it turns, it will play a beautiful melody. There are several of them, one of which is the peripheral of the work Hyouka, which will play the ED song. My daughter likes them very much. Whenever the music starts, she will hum around the coffee table. When she is having fun, she always asks me to squat down and ride a horse. A few days ago, I was so busy that I didn't even go home. I heard from my wife that she was still sulking. Ah, "Hyouka" is finally finished. We did our best to make it. I hope everyone likes it!"

……

"Maybe it's because I'm getting older, I pay special attention to the little things in life, and I also like to sigh. I've been thinking a lot recently, and I think the most about the future. I wasn't indecisive when I was young, but now when I fantasize, I always subconsciously think of my age and what my friends of the same age are doing? To be honest, I really want to see more works and continue to create. By chance, my useless disciple dragged me and a young man on a 14-day adventure. Although it was very hard, it was very refreshing. It was like returning to the time when I was a newborn calf and was not afraid of a tiger, full of ambitions, such as "let the world hear my voice". The sailboat that relies on the waves, where will it go next? Well, there will be a day to see it. I'm a little uneasy, but I'm still full of expectations. This era is so exciting, and my old friends should also work hard, haha. - Yoshiharu Kigami"
