Work begins.
Everyone is hyper.
But... Now, there is another very important matter on Kurokawa and Ya's side.
That's dubbing.
"Don't worry so much about dubbing, right?" Toshio Okada said puzzled. In this era, voice actors are still behind the scenes.
But ah...
In Kurokawa Kazuya's opinion, how can an interesting animation be performed without a good voice actor.
Especially in JOJO's Bizarre Adventure... And if it is said that the voice character with the most soul in this animation, in his opinion, there is no doubt that it is the voice character of the villain BOSS Dio Brando "Zi An Wuren".
'Zian...Zian...' Kurokawa and Mi were thinking, when did he make his debut?
Can't remember!
Although I liked the voice of this character very much before, I didn't pay special attention to it.
How about... try something else? For example, try to summon Andersen, La Er, etc... Forget it... Let's not say that I don't have this ability.
Even if it is summoned, it is probably useless.
think carefully...
Have no idea!
I obviously should have scanned his encyclopedia, and there should be records on it... That's right!
I remembered.
Among the materials I prepared when I just crossed over, I should have written them all in order to prevent myself from forgetting.
But... there are many other important roles besides Dior...
"Go advertise for me." Kurokawa Kazuya said: "Advertise me on Nippon TV, Fuji TV, Asahi TV, Tokyo TV, NHK, etc., as well as major newspapers and magazines. With one exception, all advertise for me, recruiting voice actors!"
"Hi?" Okamoto was stunned.
"Well... As long as you are selected, you will be given a bonus of 500W to 5000W yen to become a voice actor. And you can sign a long-term contract with us [JOJO Society]. I didn't choose a suitable role, but I feel good A bonus of 1,000,000 to 1,000,000 yen is still given, and contracts can still be signed. How much bonus you can get depends on the importance of the role. This aspect is left to you, and the advertising words are also handed over to you. In short, I want to see the next two Covering advertisements on major TV stations in Japan! By the way, it is also an advertisement for the animation of "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure". Two months later, the official selection will begin!"
"But...this requires a lot of money..." Okada couldn't help but said.
"It doesn't matter, I will pay the money, it will not be deducted from the funds in each episode, you just go ahead and do it."
"...I see." Toshio Okada said with gritted teeth after being silent for a while. What else can he say?
Anyway, the president is not him after all.
It wasn't him who paid for it.
People are burning too much money, what else can I do?
I could only nod in agreement.
…
Seven days later, [JOJO Society] did not make the first episode of JOJO's Bizarre Adventure during this time.
Instead, prepare the advertisements that are going to be played on major TV stations.
This ad that lasts more than a minute can be said to have gathered a lot of hard work from [JOJO Club], and it also made them feel a little panicked...
One ad was redone three times.
From the picture to the style, the whole began to change drastically.
Finally...the production was completed according to the style Kurokawa and Ya had in mind.
This effect... is sure to attract people!
Two advertisements were produced, one is actually the opening song of the first JOJO in his memory. However, there are no subtitles on it, but various information such as "recruitment of voice actors" appear.
additional.
It is a one-minute real commercial with Hideaki Anno introducing how to recruit voice actors.
Added together, there are more than two points in total. The latter part can be done in half a day, while the previous part can be done in seven days.
And the recruiting location...
Just put it in JOJO theme park!
Just in time, that day is also the time for the opening of JOJO theme park, killing two birds with one stone.
…
"Den-den-den-den-den-den-den! JOJO, JOJO"
"Pop—" Watching the advertisement that suddenly appeared on the TV, Yu Iwamoto spit out a sip of water: "Isn't it? The production has just started, and now the advertisement has started?"
on the screen of the TV.
While the music was playing, the black-and-white cartoons of the protagonists of the third generation and the first generation appeared on the screen in turn until the big characters such as [ジョジョの奇奇な魔険] appeared on the screen.
Then the screen changed.
"Recruitment of voice actors?"
…
"Seiyuu..."
After finishing his work, Zi'an Wuren returned home: "The next thing is really going to be a little bit of development on this road."
This year, he started his debut as a voice actor.
However, all the jobs he received were roles such as miscellaneous fish and dragons, and none of them could make him feel very interested.
But after all, I have been in this circle for half a year, and I will probably get a good job next year.
While thinking, he turned on the TV.
Suddenly, I was shocked by an advertisement that came out of nowhere.
Through the long tunnel, the door opened suddenly, and even the realistic sound of the door opening can be heard.
"Two stars falling from the sky—" At the same time, such singing voices appeared on the TV.
What appeared below was not the subtitles but the words "Recruitment of Voice Actors!"
"Being gradually swallowed and dissolved into the water surface where light and darkness intersect." The sound continued, and the picture continued to change. Two characters, one with yellow hair and the other with blue hair, stand against each other on two stairs. The picture is sometimes colored and sometimes black and white, and there are realistic and realistic sound effects.
The goddess statue that appeared in a spiral turned into a mask held by a person in the next moment.
However, he is more concerned about another point...
Big characters appearing on TV one by one.
"Recruitment of voice actors—"
"Three months later! On January 22, 1989, in Morioh Town, JOJO Theme Park will officially open, and a voice actor recruitment ceremony will be held at the same time!"
"Those who are selected will receive a bonus of 500W-5000W yen, those who are not selected, but those with talent will also receive a bonus of 100W-1000W yen, and may obtain a long-term contract qualification with [JOJO Society] .”
"This... what is this?" Zi'an Wuren's eyes widened: "Is this animation??"
No...not right...this picture, this expressiveness...
seiyuu...
"Maybe... I can try it." Zi'an Wuren gritted his teeth, put on his clothes and ran out. In short, buy "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure" first and get familiar with it!
