[ti:trackSP_Shiki Asagi's special free talk] [re: SE Lrc No End Time] [ve: 3.5.0.0] [00:02.42]Good day, everyone. Good evening. [00:05.92]I'm Shiki Asagi. I voiced Shion Fujishiro. [00:13.58]So I'm here to do a free talk. [00:16.96]I hadn't really done this before, so, I guess, you all... [00:25.29]You'll all be able to tell, [00:28.75]But from my perspective, it was a voice type that I haven't really done before. [00:33.42]I used my voice in a different way than usual. Could you tell? [00:38.08]I don't know if I'm able to convey it well. [00:40.42]Anyway. I've received some topics for this free talk. [00:45.71]I'll talk while reading through the topics. [00:52.75]This time... What should I talk about first? [00:56.33]I'll start with what I want to talk about most. When I saw the illustration, [01:05.04]I thought, "Wow! They made a girl that's totally my type!" [01:11.92]I really love girls in glasses. [01:15.75]I love girls in glasses, but especially... [01:20.54]A bob cut, you could call it? Too short to be called semi-long... [01:26.54]But not a short cut either. [01:28.62]She was a girl with a bob cut like that. [01:32.67]Anyway, a girl with a bob haircut wearing glasses is the cutest you can get. [01:39.33]So, the first thing I thought when I saw the illustration was, [01:44.71]Wow! They made a girl that's totally my type! Yay! [01:53.17]Yes. I was just really, really happy. [01:57.00]Being able to voice a girl whose looks are perfectly my type. [02:02.42]Anyway. That's just something that made me happy personally. [02:09.08]My thoughts on playing the character... [02:14.00]This time, I was told it would be a difficult role. [02:20.96]I put in lots of thought as to how I would do it. [02:24.42]And, you know... [02:25.46]This time, especially... Her personality changes with her glasses on and off. [02:35.50]I was thinking of how I would apply that. [02:39.75]I wear glasses myself. [02:43.88]In the past, for plays I acted in as a student, [02:50.08]I would stand on stage without my glasses. [02:57.00]When I did that, I would see things differently. [03:01.88]When you have bad eyesight, you really can't see anything at all. [03:06.29]I couldn't see anything. And conversely... [03:09.88]I thought, I saw things a lot differently than my usual self, [03:15.83]when I was wearing glasses and seeing the world clearly. [03:19.96]I thought there were some similarities there. [03:25.71]Wearing glasses and not wearing glasses [03:32.38]makes you feel things differently. [03:36.62]I felt some similarities there. [03:39.83]I applied things like that from my own experiences [03:44.00]in order to play her. [03:49.38]To spoil things... [03:54.62]She knows him, but she keeps her feelings hidden. Regarding that... [04:03.04]I think expressionless characters are perfect for that. [04:07.08]In the past, during a live stream with my friend, they told me [04:16.46]that I don't show much expression. Or I only have two expressions. [04:19.92]So I felt some affinity for the character in that sense too. [04:23.54]That's something I thought about. [04:25.75]Regardless of what you feel, the people around you can't tell. [04:31.79]Even if you're thinking about lots of things, if your expression doesn't change, [04:36.79]it doesn't get conveyed to the people around you. I experienced that a lot. [04:41.54]So, in that regard, [04:45.67]I don't know if I can say she's close to me, [04:50.96]but since she's expressionless, [04:56.21]if she tries to hide something, you absolutely won't be able to tell. [05:01.67]So I went for a totally expressionlessness style of acting. [05:06.54]No matter what I was saying, [05:10.79]I tried to stay expressionless. [05:14.46]I kept that constant the whole way through. [05:18.33]That's how I played her. [05:23.08]So, on the other hand, hiding things versus barely conveying them... [05:29.58]Going back to what I talked about earlier, her personality changes. [05:34.21]A thin line between hiding things and barely conveying them. [05:37.08]I thought I shouldn't change things too much. [05:43.17]Instead of changing things too much, conveying it just a little... [05:47.25]I thought that would be just right for the character. [05:50.29]That's what I felt while I was playing her. [05:56.50]Haha. [05:57.79]Was I able to convey that to you all? [06:01.75]I'm hoping I was able to convey it. [06:05.04]Alright, what else? [06:06.58]I also thought it was cute how she says, "You get a gold star." [06:15.17]I thought it was really cute when I was saying it. [06:19.50]Her usual personality is proper and strict. [06:26.67]When a straight-laced character like her has a catchphrase like that... [06:32.17]Saying things like "You get a gold star", it's really cute. [06:37.46]Like that. [06:40.67]That's how I played her. [06:42.75]And I've finished recording the main work. [06:46.71]I've also finished recording the story for Ci-en. [06:51.29]And it's very... [06:54.50]It's aggressive. I thought,"You're doing that on the train?" and, "Wow, I didn't know she had it in her." [07:03.25]She's expressionless, [07:05.92]but, she's surprisingly... [07:10.12]It was impressive how she did it in a place where there's a danger of getting caught. [07:15.62]It was fun seeing that side of her. A side you didn't see in the main story. [07:21.17]Glimpses of things like that. [07:25.17]I think that there are many more side of her that we might see in the future. [07:31.33]As of right now, stories you can't see... [07:34.79]Stories other than the ones in Ci-en and the main story. [07:38.25]I think there are lots of stories we haven't seen. [07:43.17]How the relationship between the two will develop later, [07:48.50]I think there's a lot left to be excited for. [07:51.46]I imagine lots of things about Shion myself and I hope everyone [07:55.58]would fantasize and think about [07:58.50]Shion a lot more as well. [08:01.75]Anyway, next topic is a word to the fans. [08:06.00]Well, I guess I've just said it, lol. [08:08.67]Anyway. I loved playing her. [08:14.50]She's a character I really liked. [08:16.92]Her looks, and also, [08:19.42]her somewhat mischievous and cute side. [08:22.83]I love that about her too. [08:25.17]So, I hope everyone would [08:26.58]fall in love with her too, and listen to it a whole lot. That would make me really glad. [08:32.54]That's about all I have to say. [08:35.33]Oh, and please leave a review! [08:38.50]Anyway, I'll wrap up this free talk with one last comment to the fans. [08:43.46]Thank you! Please listen to it a whole lot.
