“dororo”, which was jointly produced by MAPPA and Handcuffs Production Co., has entered the second half. “Animage” in April 2019 interviewed MAPPA’s planner and producer: Otsuka, and talked about the production behind this work..

Because the original work of “Dororo” was a comic book published by Tezuka Osamu more than 50 years ago, and now meets the audience again in the form of animation, it is inevitable to make some major changes. At the time when Daxie first discussed with the supervision of the ancient bridge, the ancient bridge proposed that in order to let the audience clearly see the incomplete state of the hundred ghost pills, it was decided not to use the “sense” setting of the original opportunistic tricks, and in order to pursue more On the real side, after winning the body, Bai Gengwan, in addition to his joy, should be more surprised, confused and painful

Guqiao Supervisor used to like the drama of the times and always wanted to be an orthodox drama based on the Muromachi era. Moreover, another producer of the film, Twin Engine’s producer, Yamamoto Yuki, used to like the “Lang Ke Jian Xin – Meiji Swordsman Roman Tan” directed by Gu Qiao. So immediately after the end of the “National Eagle Star”, he immediately contacted the ancient bridge supervision. Kobayashi’s participation was after the supervision of the ancient bridge. During the consultation process, I hoped to choose a person who could write a hardcore story, so I handed an olive branch to Kobayashi. This is also the fourth part of MAPPA that Kobayashi participated in. works. Because there were a lot of unwritten content in the original work of the year, Daxu hoped that these original parts would be handed over by Xiaolin, and I hope to see Xiaolin’s interpretation

It takes at least 2 quarters to complete the story, so it is natural to change the original 48 devils into 12 devils. The reason is to change to 12 devils because of the parts and plots that they want to recapture. As a result of the justification, this figure has no other special significance. It is only the external structure that is recaptured, not the internal organs of the stomach and liver. Daxie believes that Bai Gung Pills have survived to the present by relying on raw fish. Not only in terms of athletic ability, but also visceral function, immunity and resistance are quite strong

From the composition of Kobayashi, Hundred Ghost Pills and Dororo’s cockroaches were in the spring of the age of 16 and left Shouhai for about half a year, which means that he relies on his strong physical ability. People have passed the winter. The hundred ghost pills before the first words don’t feel the heat and the cold, but it is still not easy to maintain life

In addition to the performances of the ancient bridge supervision and the strict composition of Kobayashi, the original role of the cartoonist Asada Hiroshi has also attracted attention from the outside world. Otsuka originally wanted to be responsible for the character design by a dedicated animator, but thought that Asada Hiroyuki had painted a lot of handcuffs as an official illustrator, and he was a cartoonist he admired, so he I hope to cooperate with Teacher Asada. However, the style of “Dororo” is more rounded than that of Asada’s past style, and the head and body ratio is smaller. Therefore, I hope that the animation will not be used as much as possible in the production of 3DCG, but by the character’s comic style. Performance, more flexible and agile

浅田弘幸’s handcuffs characters.

At the beginning, the producer first handed over a rough text setting to Asada, including the mask status of the first words of Bai Gengwan, and then freely played by Asada. Finally, the baton is handed over to the animated character design Yan Yuzhi, responsible for the detailed settings for the animation. The color was handed over to the three-dimensional repair of the color design. Each character was designed with several color schemes. The original was gray. However, when the black ghost was seen, Daxie and others decided to adopt this scheme. I think that black can highlight the heroic spirit of a hundred ghost pills

In addition to color matching, the personality has changed a lot. Hundred Ghost Pills will actively approach the young children, and they will be close to the kittens and puppies

The first appearance of the puppy, this character is also a tribute to the original version of the original puppy – wild too

Daxie said that there will be such a change in personality because the above-mentioned can not use “psychic”. For this big brother who can’t hear and can’t talk, the smart Dorothy relies on him on the one hand and looks like a babysitter. Take care of him the same, these are all things that Dorothy can do. In the second half of the story, Doro’s life experience will be gradually described. In this deep warrior society, Dorothy pursues his own fighting style and chooses to be completely different from those who are fierce and cruel. The way of life, this is why the Dorothy is a girl

The beginning of the hundred ghost pills similar to the monster retreat experts, and Doro Luo embarked on the road to earn money to make a living, in the process, gradually formed feelings, into a relationship of inseparable. Speaking of sudden feelings, we must talk about Bai Gui Wan and Mei Xu. In the original work, the story of Mei Xu is described as the first love of Bai Gui Wan. This time, Bai Gui Wan does not know the concept of love. He does not know the love of his children, but he must accept the fact that he can continue to face forward. Go ahead. The beauty in the original has a more sacred atmosphere. In this work, she describes her as a strong woman. In order to reflect the more real side, she also has a more direct and spicy description than the original. In addition, in the original work, this is just a past reflection of Bai Gengwan. This time, Dororo was the witness of the scene. This is also the decision made by Guqiao Supervision and Kobayashi. Let Dororo realize that this is the way Marx chose to fight for survival

Almost all the characters in the play existed for the role of the living ghost, including the father of the ghost of the ghost. In the original work, Shouhai only appeared in the initial stage, and this time in addition to the episode of the intersection with Bai Gengwan, he also designed his personal story

As a helper of Hundred Ghost Pills and Dororo, the character of Pills is also gentler than the original. In addition to the first-class swordsmanship, the mind is also quite flexible, and sometimes serves as the “mouth” of Hundred Ghost Pills, indicating the current situation.But you can’t use it because the role of the testicle is good. He is not an ordinary character. He is equivalent to a ghost card in poker. He and the two of them take a wait-and-see attitude, and only appear when the two encounter a critical moment. Because this is the story of Bai Gui Wan and Dororo

Hundred Ghost Pill’s father, Jing Jingguang, is not a simple careerist. He will also help when he sees his own people. Daxie said that if all the sins are pushed to Jingguang, it will become a simple story of punishing evil and promoting goodness. Therefore, Jingguang also has his own troubles and has his own choices. Full of consciousness, he also saved many people

Hundred Ghost Pill’s mother’s sewing is not only a poor mother who misses her son, sometimes she also has to stand in the position of the lord’s wife to think. On this point, Daxie said that this officially re-runs the refinement because it is a modern work. In the original work, she did not personally release the hundred ghost pills into the river. Of course, this is the same, but there are many side descriptions to reflect the unwillingness and pain of the child when she was taken away

The most aware of her feelings is Duobao Pills. However, in the face of Duobao Maru, neither Jingguang nor Sewing can fully express these feelings. For this reason, Duobaowan feels more. It is the loneliness that is not recognized by parents. In this work, Duobao Pill is not the same as the original wild horse, but a top student who grew up in a hotbed, and a strong contrast with the hundred ghost pills that drifted in the wild and from time to guard against monsters. There are not many plays in the original Duobao Maru, so it has to be relatively free to be adapted. Kobayashi has buried a lot of foreshadowing on him. What kind of endings the brothers and the two will go to, please wait and see

The ancient bridge supervision called “Doruo” as “the praise song of the handcuffs comics”. How to describe the preciousness of life is also the most important part of this work. There are many scenes of death in the works, including the samurai under the knife and the villagers who are being eaten by the monsters, but these pictures all have their meaning. Daxie also hopes that the audience will feel deeply when they look at these pictures. Although not noble, we should also respect those humble and mediocre life

Kobayashi’s script has already been completed. When she saw the completion of the manuscript, Daxie was admired by her completion. In fact, as early as the 5th and 6th words, Daxie was still worried. He asked at the script meeting, “Is this not too uncomfortable?” However, Kobayashi did not waver in this and eventually continued in this direction. Daxie said that the recent works are all in the direction of a happy ending. The vast majority of the audience also eat this set, so they are uneasy and worried that the audience will see such a story and run away. However, he believes that such an outcome is actually more in line with the current era, which is also the reason for the “resurrection” of “Doloro” in modern times

The 12th words are the chapters that Guqiao Supervisor and Kobayashi pay special attention to. When it is determined that the works are going to be out of season 2, they have already decided to win the story in this way, and bring the story to a climax. We all have a common vision. After 13 words, the plot will turn sharply. Daxie said that he actually wanted to do more pleasant trips with Bai Gu Pill and Dorothy. However, when he decided to do “Dororo”, he also had the consciousness of this battle. “What is the significance of a TV animation to achieve this?” is not only for the audience, but also for the whole industry to see their awareness. In the future, more challenging works will be presented to everyone
