Acoustic Supervisor Nagasaki said that there are many animations based on local cities outside Tokyo, the so-called “local animation.” In the selection of these animations, he wants to use seiyuu who is born in the real world and can use the local dialect naturally. If seiyuu has lived in the local area and has a certain number of years of personal experience, such as growing up before high school, then this personal experience will also be reflected in their acting skills. .
However, there are all kinds of difficulties in doing this. For example, if seiyuu speaks in tongues, is it necessary to have a third person to judge the pronunciation of seiyuu? In addition, it is also a problem to be able to get enough local seiyuu to be able to play all roles. After all, it is not as long as the local origin can be, if the seiyuu is not suitable for this role, it is meaningless. .

Nagasaki’s idea has triggered a response inside and outside the industry. Many seiyuu have taken the initiative to ask for it, saying that if you have your own hometown as a stage work, I hope that I will use myself. .
Seiyuu has received many auditions from the birthplace since last year, and personally feels that it is not easy for everyone to practice. The casting is basically based on the county, but even in the same county, the difference between the southern and northern dialects is commonplace. It takes a lot of effort to reach a compromise with the seiyuu who came from the stage or in the nearby city. .

Some people think that even if they grow up in the local area, according to their parents’ origins and ages, the accent will be different; let alone the seiyuu will use acting skills, and then pursue what “natural” clouds, I am afraid It became an idiotic dream. .

But another audio supervisor, Yoshito, has advocated that even if the pronunciation and tone are not standard, the actual life experience in the local area will be different from other places. Therefore, even if the recording site arbitrarily decides how to match, the local seiyuu is enough to bring a fresh atmosphere to the work. .

NHK Recently introduced a company. The company’s name is unique, called “Evil Secret Association Co., Ltd.”. .
A lot of places in Japan will launch “local heroes”, imitating special photos and animations, creating a heroic image designed specifically for the local, to promote education, produce peripheral goods, and stimulate tourism consumption. .
.
Akita Prefecture’s local hero “Super God ネイガー” is one of the most well-known local heroes. The magazines that have been published in the country are serialized with comics. Please visit the famous animation and special singers singing songs by Ichiro and Minami Mitoko. .
.
Kyushu’s local hero “Rainbow Team ダンジジャー” is deeply loved by specific people inside and outside Kyushu. .
These “local heroes” often wear holsters and perform short plays at local celebrations and other events. .
However, while the number of “local heroes” has increased, many places have not had the funds and resources to make another essential element in the heroic performance – the villains. .
Light is to make a set of clothing, it costs a million yen. Many places have done their best to make heroes, and they are powerless to bear the cost of villains. However, with the villains, you can more and more enhance the glorious image of the hero. .
In this contradiction, a young man who used to work as a holster actor, Kazuhiro Sakai, came forward and decided to become a villain himself. .
Sakai has opened this company called “Evil Secret Association”, which provides counters to all parts of Japan. Founded only two years ago, the company has more than 30 villain images and held 400 performances.
Not only that, considering that the local heroes often do not have the performance knowledge, “Evil Secret Association” not only provides villains and actors, but also undertakes all behind-the-scenes work such as Taiwanese production, stage performances, and drama design. In order to let these lay heroes also shine on the stage to make the children fall. .
In the news, “Evil Secret Association” also shared “the aesthetics of the villains.” In order to make the hero look taller, the villain must always maintain a hunchback posture on the stage. When the hero self-reports the door, the villains on the stage must be motionless so that the viewer’s line of sight can be concentrated on the hero. .
The most important thing is that the villain forced the hero into a desperate moment – although the hero is supported by the audience, it is the villain that makes the audience support the hero. If the villains can make the children really think that the hero may lose, and from the heart to support him, the venue will be more heated. .
Although the efforts of the villains will not remain in the eyes of the children, Sakai is very proud of his work. He said: “No matter what kind of hero, it can set off. This is the aesthetics of our villain. It is enough to make the children look so happy.”
The “Evil Secret Association” founded by Sakai, has 40 employees in just two years, and the business has developed very smoothly. He told reporters with enthusiasm that in the future, not only local heroes, but also want to fight against local mascots like Cool MA Meng to revitalize the place. .

A few days ago, a Twitter user focused on sharing the status quo in the Middle East @7A22403246 introduced the popularity of the Japanese anime “UFO Robot Gulian Taisha” in the Arabic world, and another Twitter nickname “ Gu Lian Taisha was too unpopular in Japan in the past, and had to export income from overseas, but it had an unexpected effect. This statement has caused fierce criticism. Many old audiences, “Gulian Taisha”, were also very popular in Japan when they aired, accusing them of not knowing how to understand. .
Between the two is awkward, I can’t draw conclusions when I am young and ignorant. Instead, the animation supervised Sato Ryuo to see the controversy and sighed. .
Sato believes that animation has also encountered the trap of modern mass history. After all, “Gulian Taisha” is an animation 43 years ago. Nowadays, young people talk about this work. In a certain sense, it may be similar to the war experience he told him when he heard his uncles. If people don’t pay attention to animation, this kind of saying that the letter is open is a general statement. When archiving the animated special photos in the future, only the wrong statement will be retained, which is worse. .
When Sato learned the history of the legal system in his student days, the teacher once said that folklore and history and other disciplines will continue to have new ideas, because the ancients liked “no matter what it is,” it left. There is room to explore new materials. After the war, people will feel that “this kind of thing is not necessary to leave” because of their subjective opinions. “This kind of saying is too much to be left behind,” and abandoning a lot of things, so it is even more troublesome. .
There is no shackle of “squatting down” in today’s era. So when the owner or collector of the material dies, people don’t want to “get it all down first,” but “throw it all.” People can only tell what they have misunderstood as they tell the truth, and later generations can’t find out the truth. They can only listen to this wrong statement and be touched by it. .
Sato warns that no matter which field you are in, you should leave a complete record of “what” and “what is the cause”. In particular, the experience of the Japanese TV animation dawn is going on in succession, and it is even more necessary to “mainly leave” a lot of testimonies and materials. As for the establishment of the system, the academicization of it, and the retention of the information, it is not too late. .
