In continuation of the Staff & Cast Comment Relay for Tiger & Bunny 2 (the first part can be viewed here), we're continuing with the rest of 1st League Heroes seiyuu, series' composer and the new director's comments!
(Note that I have posted the director's comment before, but I wanted to include it again in this collection.)
1) How do you feel about the announcement of the production of "TIGER & BUNNY 2"?
I'm sure this is the same as all of you who have been supporting "Taibani", or in Sky High style, "Welcome back and welcome back!" At the same time, I remember how excited I was when I first encountered "Taibani" about 10 years ago and tried to record it for the first time.
2) Do you have a message for your fans who are waiting for your work?
Thank you, citizens of Stern Bild, for your constant support of "Taibani"! As the world is changing so much, we remember that Tiger always encouraged us with his kindness and sometimes with his strictness. We sincerely hope that we will be able to exchange smiles with you again through "Taibani".
1) How do you feel about the announcement of the production of "TIGER & BUNNY 2"?
Are there any Stern Bild citizens who haven't waited?
2) Please give a message to the fans who are waiting for your work.
In the midst of all these Corona disasters, you must be getting all sorts of cravings!
Me too! The surplus power was tight!
Gyutto! Let's condense, get together and get excited!!!
1) How do you feel about the announcement of the production of "TIGER & BUNNY 2"?
I was very happy, very happy! When the first season of "Taibani" was broadcasted in 2011, it was the year of the Great East Japan Earthquake, and the director of the first season, Keiichi Satou, and the staff had a wish to cheer up the depressed Japan with heroes. Now, in the midst of the Corona disaster, I feel that the return of "Taibani" is a destiny.
I have had the pleasure of meeting the wonderful cast, crew and citizens of Stern Bild in the show "Taibani". Thank you! And thank you! I'm looking forward to the recording of the sequel to this series, which I'm sure will be a lot of fun!
2) Do you have a message for your fans who are waiting for your work?
I'm sure you've all been surprised by the announcement of the second season's production. Me too. What has happened to our heroes since then, and what will happen to them in the future... I can only imagine. Right? Me too.
It's been ten years since the first season aired, and I'm sure many of you have changed your surroundings, but in the second season, the Stern Bild of those days awaits you! It's such an exciting time! As a mere Gou Inoue, I'm looking forward to the second season, and I'm ready to buy the figures.
Let's have another "Taibani" together!
1) How do you feel about the announcement of the production of "TIGER & BUNNY 2"?
At last! That's how I feel.
I've always hoped that there would be a second season, because the last one was supported by so many people.
Hirata-san, Morita-san and the rest of the cast worked very well as a team, so I'm very happy to be able to perform with them again!
2) Do you have a message for your fans who are waiting for your work?
To all the "Taibani" fans who have been waiting with anticipation! Thank you for your patience!
What challenges lie ahead this time...
Let's save the world together again!!!
1) How do you feel about the announcement of the production of "TIGER & BUNNY 2"?
It's great to see a dream story that we've been talking about for years finally take shape. I think the love of the fans, staff and cast for "Taibani" has made the second season possible. I think this is an amazing thing. I'm going to listen to the songs we sang together and get excited!
2) Do you have a message for your fans who are waiting for your work?
We'll be able to see out the second term in all its glory, that we will!
1) How do you feel about the announcement of the production of "TIGER & BUNNY 2"?
It's been a long time coming and we're happy to restart Fire. It's been a long time since I last performed Fire Emblem. There were times when I thought that I might not get the chance to do it again. But now the heroes are coming back. What will the story be? I'm excited. I'm going to try my best to make the Fire Emblem even more powerful, elegant and cute. Ahh... looking forward to the recording!
2) Do you have a message for your fans who are waiting for your work?
Thanks for waiting so long, Fire! At last, "Taibani" is coming back! The heroes are coming back! If you haven't had the chance to see it before, this is your chance to get to know it, and we'll do our best to live up to your expectations and even exceed them, so look forward to the fire. Watch it for sure! It's going to be a blast! Fiiiiiiiiiiiii-yannnn!
1) How did you feel when you were asked to produce "TIGER & BUNNY 2"?
I felt the same way as all the fans, I was overjoyed beyond words.
And I remembered that at the concert I said "TIGER & BUNNY is immortal forever", and I was glad that I didn't lie, and at the same time I was very grateful to all the staff who worked so hard to make the second season happen.
2) What do you keep in mind when working on a song?
The music order was via a remote meeting because of the Corona. It was a shame, but it was good to be able to meet with so many people that I wouldn't normally be able to meet with when ordering music, all in one place.
In terms of composing, I'm trying not to spoil your expectations, as this is the second season we've been waiting for, and I want to show what I've accumulated over the last 10 years, without betraying myself.
3) Do you have a message for your fans who are waiting for your work?
We apologise for the long wait. The longer you wait, the higher your expectations will be.
I will try my best to compose as much as I can and I would like to share the excitement of "Taibani" with you again, so that you can hear the music of "Taibani" live in front of you again. Let's work together and do our best.
As long as the earth is spinning, the dawn will come, the corona disaster will pass, and we will see you in concert.
1) Please tell us how you felt when you received the production request for "TIGER & BUNNY 2".
From the time of the first TV work, "Interesting!!!" I was envious of them, so I was very happy to participate.
2) Please tell us what you keep in mind during production and what you are aware of unique to this work.
We are careful to protect the world view and that the new work doesn't break the characters' characteristics and the overall mood of the show, that had already been created in the 1st season and movies.
3) Please give a message to the fans who are waiting for your work.
Hero again!! As long as there are people asking for help, they will definitely come!!!
