- Please tell us your impressions of the main story "Chirran Shinsengumi Requiem".
Kimura It's interesting.It's hot anyway!After all, it's good because men read and "burn", and women seem to enjoy this kind of work these days.
Yonaga That's right.It is interesting that the story of Shinsengumi is being promoted from a new perspective.It was also refreshing to enter from Shinpachi's narrative.
- Do you have a favorite character or an impressive episode?
Kimura: I like the "testing hall".Actually, everyone is disjointed, but that's the story of Saito's episode and beyond, and I like the fact that when you get together, you can get together.
Yonaga: The directions they are heading for are similar and different, but I think it's amazing that each of them is looking at the future of Japan while thinking about the Shinsengumi.Among them, each Shinsengumi has the purpose of living as an ambition, and there are people who are taking action for the sake of the country, so everyone is cool!I can't decide who.Everyone is cool !!
- If you were a woman, who would you like to go out with?
Kimura It's impossible!
Yonaga (laughs).I agree. …… But I think Oyasan (Kondo) will take care of me the most.
Kimura: I think it's hard, we're together ...
Yonaga: He's the only person who has all the members.
- How was the animated "Nibun no Ichi"?
Yonaga It's interesting. In "Shinsengumi Requiem", there are many slashes between ambitions and fights between people, but "Nibun no Ichi" does not have such a thing, it is really a story in the "testing hall", more It is friendly. Everyone is on good terms with "Shinshengumi Requiem", but "Nibun no Ichi" is more peaceful, and there are many real life scenes.
Kimura: In "Nibun no Ichi", Nagakura (Shinpachi) and Todo (Heisuke) are generally sorry (laughs).
Tsubasa Yonaga (laughs).There are many cases where the two of them are crazy, so everyone else is in energy saving mode.
- What is your favorite line in "Nibun no Ichi"?
Kimura: What's your favorite line !? I'm glad that "the meat was gouged when I pulled it out".It's a helpless guy (laughs).
Yonaga Saito has that kind of personality even when it comes to "Nibun no Ichi".The girls against it also say "Cha!".
Kimura: I also told the girls, "I'll pull out my intestines!"
Yonaga When I saw a girl who said, "That's irresistible ❤︎", I was worried that it was okay !? (laughs).That is another good point of Mr. Saito (laughs).
Yonaga Okita is ...
Kimura Famous for not speaking.
Yonaga Okita had many energy-saving modes ...
Kimura: I only say "fufu".
Yonaga (laughs).I liked the scene of collecting cats. I was talking to him, "How are you doing today?"Somehow, it seems to be Okita that it is true.If you think about it, the part called "Kiko" is also put out a little, so that gap is good.
- It seems that this time it was an audition format, but which role did you receive?
Yonaga I was Okita.
Kimura: Well, Saito, Okita, and Hijikata.
Kimura: It was a tape audition, but I unknowingly said "Toshizo" as "Saizo" ...
Yonaga I feel like I understand.
Kimura When I checked it before sending the tape, I thought it was strange and re-recorded it.It's a hassle, so I thought I'd send it as it is (laughs).
- How did you feel when you decided to appear in "Nibun no Ichi"?
Kimura I was interested in other casts.
Yonaga I was curious about that.
Kimura: I haven't heard the acting of Wataru (Takagi), Konishi (Katsuyuki Konishi), and Shouta Aoi, but I thought that Ume-chan (Yuichiro Umehara) was a new frontier. ..Well, we (Tatsuhisa Suzuki) are relieved.
Yonaga That's right!I saw Ume-chan who was so crazy for the first time, and I was surprised that Aoi (Shouta) was Sanosuke Harada.
Kimura After that, Yonaga should speak a little more.
Yonaga (laughs).I'm surprised that I don't speak so much.It's Okita who comes out in the meantime and sees how the basics are doing crazy, but I'm not so crazy.
- How was it co-starring with Tatsuhisa Suzuki, who played Hijikata?
It feels like Tsubasa Yonaga's strongest point is coming straight.They themselves said that this was the first time for the main character ...
Kimura Eh !?
Yonaga It's the first time!You're surprised !! It's the first time I've done the main character.
Kimura It's an honor.
I've been told that Tsubasa Yonaga is the happiest, and I feel like we're going to get on there.
- How was Mr. Yonaga playing Soji Okita?
Yonaga It was very easy to do.The image of Okita in me was a bit of a real feeling.When I became a demon and before the fight, Okita was a little kind, or a strange person who didn't know what he was thinking, so I was conscious of that.Above all, I was happy to be involved in the Shinsengumi.For the first time, I was able to get involved in the Shinsengumi.
Kimura It's your first time !?
I've never played a Yonaga game, so I'm happy about that.I also wanted to play Okita, so I was glad that you chose it in that sense as well.
- How was Kimura-san playing Saito Hajime?
Kimura It's so much fun, I'm really a fucking bastard!
Yonaga Saito's image changes a lot (laughs).
Kimura: I think it's okay to have one person who takes such a lot of work, and the play is rather big, so I was able to do it without restraint.If I have a chance, I would like to do the main story as well.
- Please tell me the highlights.
Kimura As with the production, you can feel that you are trying to pull out the strong part of each character's individuality.
Yonaga That's right.Probably because there are so many great members, it will not suffer from individuality, and there are quite a few people who are playing roles that I have never played this time, so it is a very interesting casting in that sense as well. I think it is.I think that those who watch this animation will be surprised there, and I think that they will enjoy it.
- Many fans of "Chirran" would like to see "Shinsengumi Requiem" as an anime.
Kimura First of all, I had you enjoy the TV anime "Nibun no Ichi" and said "It was fun!" With a loud voice, and then "I want to watch" Shinsengumi Requiem "!" please tell me.
I also want to see Yonaga's "Shinsengumi Requiem"! If there are many voices saying ".
- Finally, please give a few words to your fans.
Kimura "Nibun no Ichi" is a parody, but of course I also introduce myself and it is a completed story.It's a ridiculous and fun work that makes you laugh with your stomach even if you watch this much.At the same time, please pick up the main part, "Shinsen Gumi Requiem".It's a really funny manga, so I hope you'll enjoy it here.Moreover, if you can watch the TV anime "Nibun no Ichi" after getting to know the serious side of "Shinshengumi Requiem", I think you can enjoy it twice or three times, so by all means, please combine it with the main story. I think it will be more fun if you can see it. You can read the main story after watching the TV anime "Nibun no Ichi", or either one comes first, so I hope you enjoy both.
Yonaga "Nibun no Ichi" has many parts of the Shinsengumi that depict everyday life, so I think you can laugh and watch it in that sense as well.Also, for those who read "Shinsengumi Requiem", watch the animation while feeling that the Shinsengumi are closer to each other and that they are in this "Shinsenkan" with their own ideas. I think you can enjoy it if you can.There are more fighting scenes in the main story, and blood splatters are flying around, but when you are a little tired of that, you can see "Nibun no Ichi" and laugh, and if you want stimulation again, look at the main story. It's a work that you can enjoy twice as much, so I'd be grateful if you could support us.
