The Japanese cartoonist Wu Yu Hu Shiqing has already published animated news in the “Ghost Blade” serialized by “Weekly Juvenile JUMP”. The two protagonists who appeared in the works were Huajiang Xia Shu and Ghost Head Mingli. Recently, the Japanese media conducted an exclusive interview with the two people to see it together. (with excerpts).
Q: Did the two people already know the existence of the work of “Ghost Blade”? .
花江: I was reading the work for the first time because of the audition. .
Ghost Head: I have heard that there is a work on the JUMP with the title of “Ghost”. At that time, I thought, “If there is an opportunity for animation, then I really want to play a role in it.” .
花江: It’s not a “ghost” head, it is always very sensitive to the information of “ghosts” (laughs). .
Ghost Head: Hey (laugh). When I heard about the audition, I read the original and found it very interesting. After seeing the latest volume in one breath, I also felt that “if I lost the election, then I will be very hard hit”, so I said that I also went all out to participate in the audition. .
花江: After I got the comics, I also found it very interesting, and then I saw the latest volume. If it is normal, because I am worried that once I have invested too much emotion, then I will be hit hard after losing the election, so I generally don’t see too much content. But because this work is so interesting, I still read it in one breath. .
Q: So what kind of charm does Mr. Huajiang feel about this work? .
花江: In the beginning, there is a relatively long practice part, which is quite cliché. But then there was a story of fighting with the ghosts, and the number of companions increased, and then I continued to feel the fun of the work. And the master is fair because he has experienced so many practices, so he can become stronger. Just because I learned about this process, I realized that this is a cartoon that inherited the JUMP kingship orthodoxy. In addition, during the reading process, I can fully appreciate the mood of the characters. The depiction of battle is a feeling of relying on emotions to win. .
Q: The protagonist, Tanjiro, even suffered a heavy blow in his work, but still encouraged himself, and then stood up and challenged the enemy many times. .
花江: During the process of reading the works, I feel that every line of his words is like saying to me, which gives me a lot of encouragement in life. This is also the interesting part of the work. .
Ghost Head: I understand. The other character is very attractive. I usually care about the role. If I like a character, I will get to know him. In the process of reading “The Blade of the Devil”, I found that the charismatic characters continued to appear. As a result, I was very concerned about where these characters would be sacred, so I kept seeing them. .
Q: Did the two dubbed the current character at the time of the initial audition? .
Ghost Head: I just tried the role of 祢豆子. .
花江: So, there are many other female characters, why did you choose her only? .
Ghost Head: Why? Maybe because it is a “ghost” relationship (laughs). .
花江: (笑笑) I tried Charcoal Lang and Shan Yi. From the feeling of sound, I feel that I am more suitable for good, but because he is always yelling, so I also thought that “if you dub him, then it is very hard.” .
Q: (Laughs) Shan Yi is a swordsman but does not want to fight, so he cries. If you play such a role, you really need enough fighting spirit. .
花江: And everyone may be more difficult to imagine the voice of Tanjiro. Even this role allows women to dub. .
Q: At the beginning, the charcoal lang is about 13 or 4 years old. It is true that at that time, both the female voice and the male voice can be used. .
花江: But it seems that the official plan is to choose a male route, so let me play. .
Q: So what kind of mood is the two when getting qualified news? .
花江: I started thinking that I was unsuccessful, so I was surprised. .
Ghost Head: I have always dreamed of playing JUMP works, so I am very happy.

In order to make my sister’s peas return to humanity, in order to crusade the evil spirits of the family, in order to break the chain of sorrow, the battle between the boy and the ghost did not stop. .
