2010.05.13 Hanako - Kamiki Ryunosuke
First an announcement!
Kamiki-fandom has a new translator on board! Shinn Ng will be translating his articles from Japanese to English, so please look forward to more Kamiki stuff in the future. *tears of happiness right now*
Many many thanks to the people at Kamiki's Baidu thread! Chinese translation here. Bigger scans here too.
Disclaimer: Kindly read with a pinch of salt. More translators are always welcome!
I tend to translate too liberally at times, and too literally other times. As said earlier, pinch of salt is necessary.
2010.05.13 Hanako (for Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazar)
Dubbing again after 3 years, the big adventure film is now showing.
Kamiki Ryunosuke is voice acting in the Luc Besson-directed big adventure film "Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazar". 3 years have gone by, in what ways does he think he has grown?
Wanting to become an ideal adult quickly.
"In Japan, there is no person for Arthur other than Ryunosuke!" Supported by Director Luc Besson's enthusiastic love call, Kamiki Ryunosuke is once again voice acting as the protagonist Arthur. "Voice acting for foreign films and anime have different difficulties. Dubbing from French to Japanese is really not easy, a lot of effort is needed."
This is the second part of a trilogy. It has already been 3 years since the screening of the previous film. "At that time I was a first year middle school student. There were a lot of changes in 3 years. Right now I'm a high school student, in this period of time I've experienced middle school exams and school excursions (laughs)."
With regards to changes to his body, the one that is most obvious is voice.
"Growing little by little, my voice has become deeper and deeper. I was even worried about not being able to reach the high pitch parts in the first film."
Indeed "I'm already 17 this year", his smiling side profile has a heroic feel, it seems like it's no longer suitable to call him a young boy. Kamiki-kun himself wishes to become an ideal adult quickly, this wish seems to be quite strong.
"That's because I'm no longer a child. So I want to hurry up and become my ideal type of adult. Thus, I am now accumulating all sorts of experience, continously working hard. In work, hope that there will be change in every production, let the viewers go "Ah? Kamiki is already an adult? He has grown up" And adults also have a lot of freedom. I want to live by myself, go on a trip by myself."
Does that mean his views on love are clearer than normal people between 10-19?!
"Right now playing and chatting with boys seem more interesting. I am always joking and pranking in class. Throwing beans in class during Setsubun, breathing in helium gas and walking into class saying "Good morning--" (laughs) I like events, and want to make everyone happy. Even though these are very popular with the guys, the girls will probably find it annoying soon (laughs)."
