The novelist Miura Shiyuan, following the “King Zhou Ji”, will be adapted into a TV animation by Production I.G in October. Before the animated broadcast, Da Vinci magazine curated the topic “Women who weave the story we need now” to explore the source of her creation, which also includes the original novels and animation related content of “Strong Wind Blowing”. .
The “Strong Wind Blows” original novel was released in 2006. It is the first work that was launched after Miura Shion won the straightwood prize with “Tokyo Station Front Tada Convenience House”. .
Miura claims that “Strong Wind Blows” is also her best work. In addition to taking materials, she spent five to six years writing this novel and wrote about 1400 manuscript papers. Whether it is in terms of time or number of pages, she is the first to write such a masterpiece. Moreover, this is also a work that I want to write and agree with what I wrote. Until 12 years later, few works have brought her such a strong sense of accomplishment. .
Such “Strong Wind Blows” has also been favored by readers, and readers still read it repeatedly. In all senses, this is a work that makes Miura deeply emotional. She remembered that she was thinking at the time that she could not be killed by a car before writing this novel. .
The story of “Strong Wind Blows” takes place in Zhu Qingzhuang, an old flat with low rent. The protagonist Fujiwara has just entered the university. Because of the coincidence, he should be responsible for the preparation of the seniors who are responsible for cooking, and live in the bamboo green village. For various reasons, they should join the residents in the flat to participate in the Hakone rumor. Relay race. The opportunity to create this work is that Miura himself likes to watch Hakone rumors. .
Her mother was born in Odawara, and she will cheer for the players who participated in the Hakone rumor. It is also because of this reason that Miura’s family has always had a habit of watching Hakone’s rumors on TV in the first month. Until now, she also returns to her hometown every year, while collecting invoices for tax filings, while drinking wine to watch live TV. .
Looking at the Hakone rumor is not as disappointing as watching football, so it is very suitable for leisure time. However, when looking at it, Miura would also think: these players braved the cold wind of January, and it is really amazing to run such a long distance outdoors. It is easy for her to be interested in being someone who can’t do it. .
Plus, running itself is an individual sport, but the station relay has turned it into a group competition for team speed, which makes Miura feel very interesting. She felt something special and began to want to know more about the station relay race. What kind of days did the players live? What kind of training is it doing? Miura began the investigation. .
The origin of Miura Aster is the pure curiosity of “want to know”. She is not “to check because I want to write,” but “I want to write after I check it.” .
The bookstore manager who worked in the Miura student era also liked the Hakone rumor, and Miura asked him to take him to the pre-selection meeting. It happened that the young man who was working at the time had a runner who could participate in the rumor of a Japanese university girl. Miura also asked the manager to introduce her to herself, and to draw her materials, and she would introduce others to participate in the Hakone rumor. Member of the business team. .
In the process of taking the materials, Miura felt that although the world is very hard, it seems very interesting. No matter where it is cut, as long as the people in this world are attractive, it will give her the idea of “writing it out”. .
And the charm of “Strong Wind Blows” is also in the role of debut. Lively and cheerful twins, mad guys, and fluent black students in Japan…not just gray two, the 10 members of the work are full of personality, and tell each other’s growth from the perspective of each character. In the process of reading, you can definitely have a feeling for one of the characters. .
Miura said that perhaps because she read a lot of sportsmanship comics, she was naturally entered into the method of configuring roles in team sports. Like the genius who once hit the wall and the theoretical school that is good at analysis, etc., are all customary characters. This work also intentionally follows these theories, including the protagonist who is a layman who does not know why he is going to participate in the relay race.
Of course, in reality, those who can participate in Hakone rumors, even among the long-distance runners, are elites in the elites. Most of them are athletes who have been expected from an early age, and sports specialties students who have invited them to enter the school. But in such a small world, the distance from the reader is too far. .
Miura said with a smile, “At the beginning of the publication of “Strong Wind Blowing”, people who know the truth criticized “this is impossible.” There are too few members in the works who have experience in track and field. On the other hand, the gray eagle hides the ambitions of Hakone rumors and tries to become a player’s accommodation student. This plan is too long and lacks practicality in reality. But because of this, this work will be interesting. .
Miura said that this is not a documentary, but a novel. No one has read “Slam Dunk” and will say “This is impossible”, right? When you think about it, it is very unrealistic to gather a group of two-meter players in a public high school in Xiangbei High School. But she believes that the key to the work of youth is that here – the ordinary young girl who looks no different from us, how strong and radiant it can be through hard work and frustration. .
Miura wants to write a story about how to realize a dream together. She doesn’t think that people who have no talents have no meaning even if they work hard. They don’t think that only winning in the game is the most important thing. Although members who are not allowed to go may not be able to run as fast as he is, there is definitely some significance in getting along with each other and working together to participate in Hakone. .
She expressed her respect to the masterpiece sports comics while conceiving the method and role setting for introducing the story. Gray II is a thoughtful person. In order to let everyone say “I want to participate in the Hakone rumor”, it is also a vinegar pickle every day, and it is a cartoon that threatens to throw away others. He manages the entire life of the students who have fallen from the past, from cooking to cleaning. When he turned around, no one has resisted him. .
Although the outline of the story may not be realistic, the details of the exercises and other details in the works make the reader feel the hard work required for the “ordinary people” to realize their dreams. One of them is reflected in the original sentence: “The speed depends on the speed, it is impossible to fight to the end in the long-distance running. (Zhong Lu) long-distance runners are indispensable, is the real sense of strength.”
Miura said that the sprint relies on the muscle quality of the athletes and the mental state of the day. There is always a way to do it; although it is necessary to exercise, of course, it is not impossible to have lazy days. It is better to say that if you can’t relax in the positive sense It is impossible to overcome the pressure of sprinting. But long-distance runners are different. They must train and run every day, and they must run the prescribed distance. The object of the material tells her that it is impossible to become stronger if there is no one who has perseverance and persistence. .
She thinks that this has similarities with writing novels. She also has to write hard all the time, writing that she feels “Oh, it’s annoying!”. It can’t be written like this, then it can’t be written, but still can’t get tired of thinking. It is common practice not to talk to anyone for 10 days, but she does not feel that this life is very difficult. In the end, I can stick to it, or because I like it. She thought that this kind of feeling may be the most important. .
Speaking of the TV animation that will be launched in October, it is unexpected that Miura received an animated request very early. .
When the novel was published, there were not so many animations in Japan yet, but Production I.G consulted her early on to make animations. However, the actual start of the plan, but after the “Knowledge of the Boat” animation broadcast. .
Miura believes that animations can be accepted and satisfied by the original readers. The animated script she has read is very well written. For Xi A Haoping, who is an animation series and script, although animators may know more about him as a seiyuu, he has also participated in film writers such as “I heard that Tongdao has retired”. The animation composition is ingenious and needless to say. As a group drama, it is also very exciting, so that Miura will forget the original work when he reads it, and sometimes laughs when he shed tears. .
Because the original is a novel that has been written long ago, Miura does not want to participate in the animation too much, and hopes that the animation party can play freely. However, when her work is to be adapted into a video work, she will definitely confirm the script, whether it is a real person or an animation. Although she does not mind the other party changing the story, but also wants to protect the world view of the foundation of the work, for example, “this role will never say such words.”
However, Miura said that each of the adaptations of her novels is very careful, and this time is the same. She just looked at the information such as the split mirror in progress, and the excitement in her heart could not stop. Now, she is only an ordinary audience, looking forward to the animation. .
The animation was supervised by “Joker Game” supervised by Nomura and also directed. “Volleyball Boy” masterpiece painting supervised Chiba Chongyang as a person, Feng Yong Li Xing, Wu Ye Free, Nei Shan A Hui and other popular voices. The Miura Declaration, even those who are not interested in sports, can certainly resonate with this animation. .
