[masudandan]

now i've done the most important ones probably, I'm letting myself do the little ones that I'm most curious about.

Takuma Terashima (voice of Satoru Toyama)

Q: What were your thoughts when you were chosen for the role?

I was surprised and happy. I was very excited to hear that I would be part of the Precure series, and that it was a story about the bond between cute animals. As an anime otaku, Precure is a special title to me.

Q: What are your impressions of the Precure series?

When I first watched Futari wa Pretty Cure, I was shocked and thought "this is an incredible anime!" I had been watching the anime that had been broadcast in the timeslot up until then, and I've always liked works aimed at little girls, but I was really drawn to the way it was drawn, which was a game changer for that genre. Cute, cool, strong and kind! That's my image.

Q: Please tell us your impressions of Satoru.

Even now, with the final episode, my impression of him has remained consistent: "He may appear serious and modest, but he is a wonderful boy with a curious and brave heart." He has a kind heart that does not discriminate, but the strength and devotion of his special feelings towards Iroha-chan is truly wonderful. I can really relate to how he gets talkative when it comes to the things he loves! He's good at cooking, embroidery and also showed his strength at computers and the internet. I was surprised at how high-spec his PC was.

Q: What did you keep in mind when playing Satoru?

The distinction between Satoru's voice was clear to me from the beginning. I paid particular to the thickness of my voice and the strength of the attack. Regarding his interactions with Iroha-chan, I tried to town down the frivolous atmosphere from the beginning after he confesses. He has a calmness that seems to have taken a step in confidence while still retaining his innocence. He even changes the way he calls her from "Inukai-san" to "Iroha-chan". Also, I was conscious of expressing Satoru's feelings in an easy-to-understand way, not just his cheerful emotions, but also his frustration at not being able to transform and face the situation together with her, and his embarrassed and flustered state.

Q: What was the most memorable moment during recording?

There are several scenes where Satoru-kun was thinking to himself, but according to the script, most of it was ad-lib... The first time, I came up with a fair amount of lines myself, and they were easily approved, so from then on it was a battle with the pressure (laughs). Even when he turned into a rabbit, I set the approximate distance based on the size of the cityscape in the background, and combined that with the speed of the rabbit in the script, and thought up lines that would fit the intelligent Satoru-kun. That's something I worked hard on!

Q: What did you think was great or cool about Satoru throughout the series?

Even though he couldn't transform, he was really cool when he supported the Precure with his intelligence. Although Satoru wasn't confident in his physical strength, he ran after the Precure and avoided Garugaru's attacks, and did his best! In episode 35, Keiichi's appearance made him more determined to support Mey Mey (?)! He was also cool when he confessed more clearly.

[The (?) wasn't added by me, that's in the Japanese text. I assume there's some sort of ironic joke about Mey Mey and Satoru that's not translating well.]

Q: Are there any other lines or epsiodes that left an impression on you?

There are many memorable points, such as Iroha being clumsy in contrast to Satoru, Nekoyashiki who is enthusiastic about love talk, and Yuki who gradually opens up to Komugi. Among them, Episode 44 is unforgettable as it brought tears to my eyes. The bond between Otsuru and Fuku-chan, and the friendship with Okame and Oshika-san. Komugi's words and actions as she faces irreplaceable lives head on, whether she understands them or not, made my heart ache in the movie. Subaru's wailing and interactions with Gaou and the others in the final episode were also very memorable.

Q: Please tell us your impressions of Daifuku, who is Satoru's good partner.

I was surprised when Komugi-chan first translated Daifuku's feelings! He's not the type to be very expressive, and I never thought he'd be watching over Satoru-kun so much... So I was really happy when he was able to speak to him directly. His voice was just as I imagined it! I had tried to keep my faint hopes of him turning into a human or transforming together with Satoru-kun to just fantasy, so I was super excited by how the movie unfolded! I wasn't told until the very end whether they would appear on TV, so that made me super excited too! Satoru-kun and Daifuku are... Precure...?

[I am bolding that line for me for my own enjoyment]

Q: What are your memories of the dubbing studio?

The main voice actors were all generally quiet people, so it wasn't a noisy or lively set. Personally, I felt that it was a comfortable environment. Even so, everyone was chatting away when the goods were being displayed. It was fun exchanging information, like "I saw Komugi-chan in the crane game."

Q: How do you feel now that the final episode has aired?

I miss it. I wanted to keep playing Satoru-kun forever and watch over everyone as they grew older. He has become such a precious presence to me that I want to be with him through all the fun and hardships that everyone will experience in the future.

Q: What words of appreciation would you tell Satoru, who has always supported and cheered on the Precure?

Satoru-kun was so cool because he worked so hard! Good job! I'm just curious about whether Iroha-chan said "I love you" to him! Sorry for being rude!

Q: What do you think is the appeal of Wanpuri?

The theme of "the bond between animals and humans" is not only expressed through superficial touch, kindness and cuteness, but also through the serious aspects that we must face. I'm not sure the little friends who watched the anime really understood it, but I think it left something important in their hearts.

Q: What did you find most wonderful about appearing in this production?

A lot of people told me, "I'm watching it!" They were watching it with their kids, or there were fans of the series. I didn't hear that much about other works, so I thought "Precure is amazing after all! Wan!" Also, for the first time in my life, someone said, "That voice...is that Terashima-san, the voice of Satoru Toyama...?" I was so happy.

Q: Finally, please give a message to the fans who have supported Wanpuri.

If you are a parent of a young friend who is watching Wanpuri, please take the time to tell them "Thank you for supporting Precure! We received so many wonderful feelings!" Thank you to everyone for your support over the past year! I hope you share the wonderful feelings that the director and all the staff put into the work. What do you think? Wanpuri was the best, wasn't it? I had such a wonderful time this past year. If the day comes where you can meet Satoru, Daifuku, Iroha and everyone in Animal Town again, please be sure to come together!

[so basically, takuma terashima just like us fr fr]

I wanted to make this a separate post to the Terashi post. But while in Sydney I attended a convention! It was my first time going interstate for one!

While I was there I got to get an Autograph from Kenji Nojima!! I forgot to bring the item I wanted signed so it was done on a con provided poster board.

He was really sweet and I tried my best to speak a little bit of Japanese.

I hope I can get more signatures for Seiyuu I like in the future

Coz I have my wishes 👀

[masudandan]

An original post today!! I recently went on a trip to Sydney! Which to someone like me is who lives in Perth it's pretty big! While I was there I bought some Oshikatsu stuff and put some of my Terashi stuff in it! The toploader case is something I decorated myself and the charm was originally made as a joke by a friend.

Also while in Sydney I went to the bookstore Kinokuniya and scored a Side M book!

Didn't realize it had Seiyuu images in it so seeing Terashi scared me because I wasn't expecting it.

But hey I can say I got Seiyuu Merch!

[masudandan]

I would want them to serve me but I’d probably die from looking at them so much :’)

[masudandan]

I'm Chi/Jakob. This is my blog dedicated to my interest in Male Seiyuu! This blog is reblog-heavy heavy but one day I'd love to share some of my own stuff that I have!

My Top Oshi's are Takuma Terashima, Toshiki Masuda, Yuki Ono and Tetsuya Kakihara! But I do have some other seiyuu I like a lot!

I greatly enjoy music projects, Idol series, Joseimuke and Otome Games! I am always on the search to check out many different music projects and series no matter how dead they are.

I like and follow from @xxvinmetzxx

Blog has a theme so please view on PC if possible!
