第135話 雨の日：それが声優！WEB
① It's raining pretty hard today. I'd better wear my rain boots. ② Ah, but for recording, I've gotta bring my platform shoes... ③ Oh no! I have a photo shoot today! I need clothes and shoes for the photo shoot too! ④ And that's how this happened... *WOW!* That must be tough.
Masumi Asano's Commentary
About today's comic. A seiyuu is fundamentally a creature who must carry a lot of things. Since we need to travel to different locations to do different jobs every day, leaving our stuff in a company locker is not an option. We have to carry everything with us on our persons. So, sometimes situations like today's comic occur... By the way, regarding the platform shoes mentioned in panel 2, seiyuu who are short of stature have to carry these around with them to wear for recording sessions. Because of the difference in height between them and the other cast members, when they have to share the same mic, it can't pick up their voice well unless they wear these to compensate for the height difference. Whenever I notice short seiyuu carrying around their platform shoes all the time I think, "That must be tough." And as mentioned in the third panel, when there's a photo shoot, seiyuu are generally responsible for our own outfits. If it's a photo shoot that shows the feet, we have to bring our own shoes in addition to clothes and accessories. And if we have a recording session right before the photo shoot, since we can't really do the recording in elaborate outfits we also need to have a more everyday outfit for recording. And so, our baggage keeps piling up more and more. The troubles of Rin-chan, who has to leave school early to go to work, are immeasurable! Hang in there Rin-chan! Don't let all your bags get you down. Until next week. This has been Asano Masumi♪
