Q&A
At what stage did Miss Ruoshan start to come into contact with this work? After actually becoming Xiaotao’s voice actor, did you have any different opinions on “The Bold Party”?
Ruoyama: Before receiving the role audition, I had read a few episodes in my impression. At that time, the original comic of “The Bold Party” was already very discussed. After confirming that he was selected as Xiao Tao’s voice actor, he went back to finish the original comic.
When I was a reader, I simply thought “this work is very interesting”. After actually entering the production, I saw that each animation producer had bet on this work a lot and was not careless in the details. In addition to thanking the animation team. , further discover the charm of this work! “The Bold Party” has ghosts, superpowers, love, and funny, and contains many different elements. Even so, it is still well integrated and easy to understand. In this regard, you can see the production team’s intentions.
What do you think are similar or different from Xiaotao? Do you think such a difference is particularly helpful or difficult in dubbing interpretation?
Ruoshan: I think the similarities between me and Xiaotao are big and casual. For example, I also sit at home without looking, and that sense of life may be very close to me; the difference is that Xiaotao has a very unique personality. Being positive, I can still face it frankly even when facing failure. I envy his personality.
When dubbing the character, Xiaotao’s usual casual way of speaking or sentences is closer to me. At the same time, what I originally lacked was learning from him through dubbing. Through the role of “Xiaotao”, I actually learned a lot. .
What do you think modern hot girls like Xiaotao need to have?
Ruoshan: First of all, we must consolidate our beliefs and look at our life from a positive perspective. I think these are the most necessary conditions for hot girls.
In the animation, there are many scenes of using superpowers, fighting, and various quarrels and funny cooperating with characters. How will they be interpreted in performances that express non-verbal expressions?
Ruoshan: This is a brand new challenge for me. When interpreting the fighting scene, voice actors should be aware of and figure out what the actual performance will look like, such as how to attack, which body part is damaged, etc. Therefore, in the recording scene of “Bold Party”, voice actors should not only refer to the production staff for providing the When we image, we must constantly check back and forth with the production staff whether the actual recording effect meets the needs.
As for funny things, I thought of the scene where Xiaotao, Erkaren and grandma were eating crabs together. I had read the comics before. When I was dubbing, I actually saw the animation. I felt like a flash of inspiration. Different from expectations.
So, are there any unforgettable plots or memories when dubbing Xiaotao?
Ruoshan: When I started recording the first episode, Xiaotao had many scenes of interacting with other characters. In addition to the performance method I used when I performed Xiaotao, I had never tried it before, and there were many voice actors and seniors who dubbed with me. , so I was very nervous! Among them, Xiao Tao, Erkaren, and the high-speed mother-in-law and the Cyber Starman appeared together, I thought to myself, “It’s really not possible if I don’t do my best.”
I also want to share a short story from the recording. There are three types of Cyber Stars, all with different voices. They are all dubbed by senior Kazuya Nakai. During the audition, he simulated three Cyber Stars with different voices in one go, and it was passed at once. I think Cyber Stars. Stars became more interesting under the interpretation of Senior Nakai! Senior Tanaka Magong, who plays the high-speed mother-in-law, was also amused after listening to it! This story is an unforgettable experience for me.
Is Miss Ruoshan herself a ghost school or an alien school?
Ruoshan: I am from the Ghost Sect. If there are ghosts, I might be able to meet my deceased relatives or friends.
What is the most impressive ghost or monster?
Ruoshan: When I was a child, I saw an urban legend on TV. I heard that seeing the mini Ojisan will lead to success in life, and his shape or appearance varies from person to person. I saw it on TV at the time. Successful people showed up to tell the story of the mini Oujisan they saw. It’s a pity that I haven’t seen it yet. I hope I can meet him if I have the chance.
Are there any other characters who are particularly impressed or who want to try to perform?
Wakayama: Terahito, who started to appear in Chapter 10, is obviously a handsome guy, but he speaks very well and has a funny personality, but in fact he wants to cover up his sorrow. Personally, he has unique charm and richness. Deep role.
