The clever combination of “History” and “Science Fiction”

The series of “Women ”, which was launched by Yugong Qingtai as the original work, from special dramas, Pachinko amusement machines, novels, stage plays, animations, etc., ushered in a new special drama in this quarter. God’s Tooth-JINGA-, in January next year, will also launch its second stage play “God’s Teeth – JINGA-Reincarnation”, in March this year, the third TV animation series, “Wolf” >-VANISHING LINE-”, the second episode of “The Wolverine – Red Lotus Moon” of the second series of TV animation series, “Smoo Sakura -GARO-” is broadcasted on October 6th. Japan released. .

The stage of “The Wolf of the Tooth – Red Lotus” – took place in the Heian era of Japan, telling the Thunder, the Lord of the Rings, the star of the Lord, and the young Jinshi, who followed the Thunder, inherited the title of the Golden Knight A new story centered on the center. The supervision of this work is carried out by Nicun Cong of “The First God Boxing”, “TRIGUN”, “Tide and Tiger”, and this season’s “Magic Circus”. The script is made by the animated version of “The Wolf” – Inflammation Engraved by Xiaolin Jingzi, the role model design, painting supervision and other lineups are also shuffled, presented in front of the audience in a theatrical version, telling the revenge of the Heian era combined with sadness and beauty. .

The original role of this game is still played by the TV version of Gui Zhenghe. In addition to the “upgrade” of the protagonist lineup, two new characters have been designed for this game: Yin Yang Shi Ming Luo and the mysterious thief. On the occasion of the release of the animation, Gui Zhenghe and Supervisor Nishimura also accepted interviews from a number of media, asking about the relationship between Gui Zheng and his teacher’s mood changes in the design and design of the teacher, and the relationship between the two teachers. Sakura-GARO-” and even the “Wolf ” series of charm. .


Nishimura Satoshi has been invited in the past, I hope he can participate in the production of animation, officially joined the lineup, Kobayashi’s script is in preparation, waiting for the West Village Supervisor to join For a moment, it is better to further construct the story and the picture. Although Kobayashi is the series of the first TV series “Women – Inflammation” – but for this sudden Japanese era of the Heian wolf, it is a bit unintelligible and the script has been carried out. Second change. .

桂正和 At the beginning of the design, the script has not started to write, and even then there is no one who has even supervised. Gui revealed that in addition to this work, other works that he participated in were almost in such a state at the beginning. In short, in order to promote the planning of a work, “you must first find Gui Zheng and draw the painting, so that the plan can pass!”.

“Red Lotus Moon”, because the “Wolf ” series has a basic form to some extent, but it is difficult to pass various plans, even Yu Gongqing too own The plan is also like this. Gui Zhenghe also heard a lot of detailed settings from the rain palace. At the beginning of the “Red Lotus Moon”, there were only two settings. One was to use the Heian Age as the stage, let the Lord of the Rings as the protagonist of the work, and the other was to let Abe Seimei “sexually turn” or star. This made Gui a bit of interest. After asking about the rain palace, the rain palace immediately nodded and let it join the camp. .

Gui Zhenghe always wanted to draw the costumes of the Heian period, especially the daily wear. Xingming’s Yin Yang’s costumes and the Thunder’s sketches, however, the rain palace said that the wolf still had to wear robes and “Can the big sister show her hips?”. Gui Zhenghe smashed and questioned the rain palace. “Is this not the Heian era? Is this OK?” Everyone may think that Gui Zhenghe likes to paint his butt, but Gui said that he has always refused to paint. In addition, Gui Zhenghe believes that wearing a light butt in the Heian era, this can not be said, so I added a feather-like shawl to the star. And my favorite set of Yin and Yang uniforms was also used in the initial TV…

Nishimura’s supervision said that he was completely ignorant before entering the crew. He only knew that this was a story of the Heian era, so until the final battle star Ming was wearing the clothes of the Yinyang Master. Fortunately, Gui has been able to see the “safe wolf” that he hopes. However, Nishimura also asked Gui to be able to modify the white robe and battle suit used in the theatrical version. Gui said that this time he was also very confused. “How to design to make these clothes look convincing?” When the word “harmony” was used, Gui almost wanted to let everyone just wear a piece of cloth. Gui Zhenghe said that he prefers to draw the armor of the Lord of the Rings. The robes and battle suits are relatively difficult to draw. .

Nishimura is the first time to participate in the world of “Women ”, so it was also a fog at first. I always thought that I should use the TV version in some places or some of the elements available in the past series. However, when Gui Zhenghe saw the white robe, the light from the visual atmosphere also made people feel that this is indeed the feeling of “tooth wolf”, and in the drama, Nishimura proposed to let Xingming wear the costume through the spell. The idea, Gui also expressed conviction. .

The armor of the wolf joined the elements of the wind and made the design of the “Wolf-Array-” the most recognizable in the Lord of the Rings. In addition, the West Village Supervisor revealed that in the theatrical version, the armor of the wolf is not all CG, but also used paintings. After all, it is a theatrical version of the work, which cannot be neglected in details. .

“Thin Sakura” is not only in clothing, but also in the setting of world view. In the TV version, instead of deliberately deviating from that era, such as robes, Gui Zhenghe thought that this is very inconsistent with the times. If you can show more “yin” and “yes”, it will be much better. Of course this It’s just his opinion. This aspect is very good in “Si Mo Ying” and makes Gui feel that his job is more valuable. The part of “Yin”, especially on the head of Fujiwara, the performance of the anime in the animation made Gui Zhenghe very satisfied. Nishimura also said that the role of the leader is very attractive. The place where Fujiwara is particularly powerful is to count him as a fire, not a ring of the Lord, but an ordinary human being, but it is the role of “the most terrible person” by A Wu Seimei. .

“How do you get down the road?” However, it has become such a story, but it will lead to contradictions. Because it is human, the Lord of the Rings can not be embarrassed. And his “female me” will not change, because basically he is a crazy guy. Not only do you know the existence of the Lord of the Rings, but even try to control the Lord of the Rings. However, he is not weak and will not sign a contract with Huo Luo. It is a really troublesome human being for the Thunder. This is also the charm of the West Village Supervisor. .

Gui Zhenghe also felt that such a character was very interesting when he was painting, and Gui Zhenghe said that people who are often in this position wear black hats and plug in simple hairpins. The design in the middle is deliberately contrary to the road, ignoring the stereotype, and in the end, drawing a design that makes people feel gorgeous and majestic. In addition, Gui Zhenghe mentioned that one of his habits is that the worse the guy, the more he wants to use bright colors, so the road is made of yellow, green and yellow. Even his subordinates are almost green, which is the setting of Gui Zheng and his own ideas. Since some details have to be omitted in the TV version, Gui also feels a pity. Fortunately, some details, including the captain’s hat, were restored to his original case in the theatrical version, and I am very grateful to the production team for this. .

About the two characters of the new version of the theatrical version of Ming Luo and Shimaru, in design, Gui Zhenghe said that the first thing to start with color, first confirmed that the two are blue, which is one of his habits. Because the script has not been decided at the design stage, Gui has arbitrarily attributed them to the same force, so they are all white hair. After all, what text settings have not yet formed, and what kind of relationship between them, can only rely on their own imagination. .

Nishimura said that it was because of the image of the time when Gui first painted it, he gave him more inspiration and better “misleading” the audience. The ragged clothes are designed to reflect his “bad” side, and they are like a kabuki. The shape of the eyebrows and the mouth are also designed with ukiyo-e and kabuki as the prototype. This is the same as the thunder. The scar on the head was only because it was a “thief”, but also gave him a hard memories.

When designing Ming Luo, the painting was long after the beginning, but it was also required to be shortened for better fighting in the animation. Gui Zhenghe expressed that he could understand, after all, the only keywords he got at the time were: Shimao was a thief, Mingluo was a Yinyang master, and he was an enemy. In fact, even the names of Maru and Minglu had not yet been fixed. At the beginning, Gui wanted to design Mingluo with a “transparent” character, revealing the vengeful heart in the silent eyes. In order to reflect the enemy’s side, Gui canceled the hat of the Yin and Yang division and put on the hairpin. The first thing that was painted to Ming Luo was the ghost hair. Xicun believes that the decoration of “ghosts” is too obvious. It can’t be seen as an enemy at a glance. It is better to use the hairpin to “mislead” the audience and put on more complicated hairpins. Why did you choose this hairpin, and Nishimura also forgot, probably by eyelashes. .

For the description of the Heian era, Nishimura said that in the past many works that were also on the stage of the Heian era, they all chose to use the contrast between the “noble and peaceful people” to describe. This time, it is reflected in the lives of the people. For this reason, the daily descriptions of Thunder, Xingming and Jinshi are also more time-consuming than the TV version. .

Yugong Qingtai is a predecessor of Gui Zhenghe at the Aso Valley Art School. He has always supported the work of the Rain Palace. In the past, “Jerham” and “The Future Ninja Keeyun Machine”, “Harmony” The feeling of mixing with “sci-fi” also left a deep impression on Gui Zhenghe. However, because the rain palace has been making real shots, there was no communication in the past, until the “Geerham” OVA “I・Я・I・A ZЁIЯAM THE ANIMATION” found Guizheng and the role of the original case, the two talents began to have In the past, I only met at the barbecue meeting. Gui Zhenghe’s understanding of the Rain Palace is not only on the two titles of the original work and supervision. As a producer, he also has excellent ability. This is what Gui Zhenghe does not have, and he has always admired the rain palace. .

For the charm of the “Wolf ” series, Gui Zhenghe thinks that it is not like the setting of the world view of monsters like Huo Luo and anti-era costumes, but the relationship between people makes him Fascinated. Out of the love of the “Wolves ” series, Gui Zhenghe has no experience in dubbing and acting, but in the animated version of “Inflammation of India” with a whole episode, also in the special drama “Wolf – The flower of the Lord of the Rings – is out of the mirror. Gui likes the relationship between the indifferent protagonist of the standard dark hero image in the first work, the relationship between the steel teeth of the island and the heroine Yuki Kaoru, and the relationship between the thunder and the magic props in the flower of the Lord of the Rings. “Silk Sakura” in the small Jing Jingzi’s masterpiece of the play method and the completion of the image of the Thunder and other people’s relationship also let Gui Zhenghe fully feel the charm of the wolf. .

Nishimura Supervisor said that because there is very little information in the Heian period, it is not easy to convert text into painting, but it is also worthwhile for yourself. For example, the sliding door of the Daochang room, Nishimura said that this is not in line with the actual history, it is better to say that there is more “Japanese fantasy color” in it. Gui Zhenghe is not picky about the picture, but also specializes in the scene where the Thunder and his party handed the fan to Minglu in the bamboo forest. In particular, the expression of Xingming here shows that there are elements of “triangular relationship” in it. Nishimura also said that this daily scene can better reflect the good side of the star. .

In addition to these daily descriptions, the battle with the huge Huo Luo also reflects the scale of the film. The audience who entered the wolf pit from the special drama will feel cordial for the great battle. However, Nishimura said that the battle with the huge Huo Luo is indeed a great welfare for the audience, but in fact, at the stage of negotiating with Kobayashi, she did not want to be huge, because she did not want to leave a stereotype for everyone (For example, only mentioning Kyoto, the special audience will more or less associate with a certain evil spirit monster…) However, it is compromised. The huge Huo Luo was designed by Dahe Guangxing. The initial setting was 6 meters, but Gui Zhenghe said how to look like a mountain. Nishimura said that the setting is designed according to the impression in the script, just like a tree that walks, not an enemy character in a certain RPG. In various design ideas, Nishimura does not want to have a “wing-like” design, but the collection of these branches ultimately makes people feel like a “wing”. In the design stage, I also came up with a plan, with a broccoli like a body full of cherry trees, I always feel that this is getting more and more cute.

At the beginning of the scene, the West Village Supervisor wanted to break his head. After all, it just destroys the “door”, but in order to prevent such actions from appearing monotonous, collect the data as much as possible so that these “doors” are the same. In addition, in the action of Huo Luo, in addition to the whole, the thin parts will change. The expression reveals a sad atmosphere, because according to Kobayashi, “Thin Sakura” is a very sad story from the perspective of Shimaru. .

Gui Zhenghe said that from the TV series to the present, he did not think about designing Huo Luo in the past, although he said that he was responsible for the design of public opinion Roimude in the “Theatrical Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future”, but for him It’s just hell. Gui said that he originally wanted to work in a related role because he likes heroes. Even in his own works, such as “ZETMAN”, the design of the geeks is also responsible for other people, such as the temple Tianke, the younger generation. Zhu Gu Longzhi, the late 韭泽靖, these bio-geeks special designers to design. If you paint yourself, you will probably paint a monster, for example, the wheel that appears in this drama. This is his personal favorite design. .

Regarding the future, Gui Zhenghe hopes to follow the line of the theatrical version to make a sequel to the TV series. After all, “the road leader will not let it go!”, I want to see the final confrontation with the Taoist, of course. The road grows into a fire, but it doesn’t work. It’s boring. At the time of “TIGER & BUNNY”, Gui Zheng and himself acted as cartoons. This time, Gui said that he did not want to paint the Lord of the Rings. It was too cumbersome. .

For the 25th words “Cut Butterfly” included in “Honglian’s Moon” BOX, Nishimura Supervision said that even if it is placed in the TV version of the prologue is also a very important chapter, I also want to see the follow-up chapter of Kim. Of course, if you can follow up, you are willing to give a hand, but the premise still depends on the response of “Si Mo Ying”. .
