Let's Read: A Requiem for Char: The Red Comet of My Youth - Chapter 1

by Shūichi Ikeda

This post will be an overview of the first chapter, Steps to Becoming an Actor.

Please note this isn't a full summary by any means, just a highlight of parts I found interesting. Very long post under the cut!

Shūichi Ikeda was born on December 2, 1949 in Numabukuro in Nakano Ward, Tokyo. Growing up in the years after World War II, Ikeda recalls that although the scars of the war still remained here and there, the entire country was filled with an upwards surging momentum that could be described as "hope after a long period of suffering".

In 1958, he was invited by a friend to join Komadori Theater Company (劇団こまどり). Founded in 1948, it was a prestigious children's theater company that later produced many famous actors, including familiar names like Maaya Sakamoto, Daisuke Namikawa, and Ikeda's wife, Sakiko Tamagawa. He passed the entrance exam and started his career as an actor at only eight years old.

Along with movies, radio had a large presence in popular entertainment in those days. The first experience that Ikeda and the other child actors had was with radio dramas, broadcast on NHK radio. In elementary school, it was his daily routine to go to the NHK studio after school. There he co-starred with popular talents of the time.

In a funny side note, Ikeda recalls fond memories of the bento lunches they had at the studio. The rank of the bento changed depending on the rank of the actor with whom he was working. One particular instance he noted was how when the famous Musei Tokugawa starred in a lead role, lunch was eel bento, a rare delicacy back then.

As time went on, TV dramas became more popular, and Ikeda was offered his first role on television only three months after he joined Komadori. It was a simple role - a child crying in the corner in the background of a shot - but he remembers it fondly as a memorable first step into the world of acting.

In his junior high days, Ikeda starred in Gashintare (がしんたれ), a TV adaptation of the autobiography of playwright Kazuo Kikuta, and the movie Robō no Ishi (路傍の石, "Roadside Stone"), two works that made him seriously consider the job of "actor" for the first time.

In this chapter, Ikeda also talks about his relationship with famed Japanese film actor Yūjirō Ishihara. The two met as co-stars on the TV drama Shi no Hakubutsushi - Chīsaki Tatakai (死の博物誌 – 小さき闘い, The Natural History of Death – A Small Battle). Ikeda says he was immediately struck by his aura the moment he entered the rehearsal room.

Ikeda recalls how on set, Ishihara jokingly addressed him as “Shū-sensei”, as a nod to the fact Ikeda was much more experienced with TV dramas, despite being much younger.

“Shū-sensei, you're a junior high school student, but you’re more senior than me as a TV actor, aren't you?”

In response, Ikeda replied,

“Well then, I'll call you Yu-sensei. On TV, I may be the sensei, but if I appear in a movie with you, please be the sensei.”

Ikeda fondly remembers him as a star that never faded no matter how much time had passed. Sadly, Ishihara passed away July 17th, 1985, and he never got the chance to film on a movie set with him.

In his words, “Even now, I keep in mind the way of life as an actor that Yujiro-san taught me. And I still call out to him...as Yu-sensei.”

In the spring of 1964, Ikeda began his role as the star of Jiro Monogatari (次郎物語), a TV drama based on the novel of the same name. The story depicts Japan in the early Shōwa period as seen from the perspective of Jiro Honda, a boy of a former samurai family.

The show was a hit among viewers of all ages, and ended up running as a nationally broadcast drama for two years. However, due to the popularity, from that point forward in his childhood acting career, Ikeda was typecast as a similar character - or as he refers to it, the image of “Jiro Shonen”, “a boy in a kasuri kimono”.

Ikeda was around 24 or 25 years old when Kohei Miyauchi asked him if he would be interested in doing voice-over work. The role was in a one-shot overseas drama for NHK about a group of three train robbers. Ikeda remembers struggling to adjust, thinking it might not be the best fit after all.

Soon after he was offered a role in André Cayatte's Mourir d'aimer as the dub voice for Bruno Pradal. At first he was hesitant, but accepted after finding out he would be alongside Tomoko Naraoka (dubbing Annie Girardot), whom he had worked with earlier in his career during his time as a child actor.

Ikeda recalls how this experience helped change his perspective on voice over work.

"Rather than trying to match the voice of the actor on the screen or strictly matching the actual lip-syncing, I felt how the actor and director put together the character, and translated that atmosphere into Japanese-style acting."

After appearing as a voice actor in other overseas dramas, a new opportunity arose. The person who approached him was Kazuya Tatekabe, of Doraemon fame. The two became friends and often went drinking with their fellow co-stars after work.

It was Tatekabe who introduced Ikeda to Noriyoshi Matsuura, who worked as an editor and sound director on various anime. Through some gentle persuading, he convinced Ikeda to give anime a try (while drunk, he admits), specifically the character Radik in Invincible Steel Man Daitarn 3.

However, Ikeda found the speed of the process and inability to preview the material beforehand (like he was used to with film voice overs) overwhelming. He remembers thinking, "this is my first and last anime".

Despite this, Matsuura convinced him to give one more audition a try, with the promise they could go for drinks afterwards. Ikeda agreed, though wasn't enthusiastic about it.

...That audition was for the role of Amuro Ray in the upcoming anime Mobile Suit Gundam.

That's all for Chapter 1! I'll continue with these posts for each chapter as I go. Of course I recommend checking out the book for yourself if possible as I've left out a lot of content here for brevity.

TOP 12 SNOW WHITE PORTRAYALS

@princesssarisa @superkingofpriderock @sunlit-music @mademoiselle-princesse @amalthea9 @theancientvaleofsoulmaking @astrangechoiceoffavourites

Lips red as blood. Skin white as snow. Hair black as ebony. The fairest woman of all.

Snow White is one of the most iconic fairy tale characters ever created. And also one of the hardest to portray. This happens because, the story is less about her as a person, and more about following her exploration of the world and how this world reacts to her. The tale calls her a princess, but really she is more meant to be a common everygirl for a variety of readers and audiences to see themselves in. So the greatest challenge to portray the character becomes how to make at the same time universally relatable, and an individual character, and today, i’d like to share my favorite portrayals, that camed closer in acomplishing this goal.

12º Laura Berlin in Sechs Auf Einen Streich (2009)

Berlin’s Snow White acts as an outgoing, playfull young lady who deep down is trying to deal with the longing for her dead mother. And then, her father marries a new, vain and cruel woman, and sayed woman orders that the portrait of the previous queen be trown out, wich obviously makes the princess verbally snap against her father weak-willed and her tyranical stepmother. And then her father has a stroke and her stepmother orders her death. Here is a young lady in an emotinal turmoil and distress, wich makes her very relatable to audiences.

11º Nicola Stapleton and Sarah Paterson in Canon Movie Tales: Snow White (1987)

One of the first times that we see the fair princess explicitly growing up from child to young adult. Nicola Stapleton is probably more charismatic as child! Snow White, having more time on scene where she gets to sing with her father, explore the room where her stepmother keeps the magic mirror, until finally having to run trough the woods and meeting the dwarfs, but Sarah Paterson also makes adult! Snow White likable, singing about her desire to someday leave the dwarfs house because she is growing and may need her own space, and showing the doubt between fear and curiosity in her interactions with her disguised stepmother. This highlights more the themes of coming of age and confronting ones fears from the tale.

10º Yuri Amano/Donatella Fanfani/Eileen Stevens in The Legend of Snow White (1994)

In this italian-japanese coproduced anime, the twelve year old Snow White is an inquisitive, merry and kind girl, that has to adapt to a more scary reality when she has to run away from the castle to not be killed. At the dwarfs house, where she is so hungry and tired she takes all bread from a basket and sleeps for hours, she decides to give her hazelnuts and try to do shores to compensate for entering the house and eating the bread. Unfortunally, being a princess who lived in comfort all her life, she fails hard when she tries to do domestic shores, burning bread and cutting lettuce that she tought were garden plagues. But she is so sweet and kind, that it doesn’t matter. Conquering the affection of people for who she is, and not for what she can do in exchange, is the greatest strenght of this encarnation.

09º Elizabeth McGovern in Faerie Tale Theatre (1984)

A lonely girl who just wants some atention and love. Those are the characteristics that McGovern’s Snow White extablishes for herself in her first appearance, trying to impress her stepmother with juggling tricks learned with the Court Jester. Later, in the forest, when she is about to be stabbed, she prays to God for the soul of the Huntsman who is about to kill her, and to her surprise this act of kindness is what changes the Huntsman’s heart and convinces him to spare her life. In the woods she finds the dwarfs cottage, and can finally have friends to talk about things like her nostalgia for swiming in the castle moat/pit. She won’t feel alone again.

08º Kristin Kreuk in Snow White: The Fairest of them All (2001)

In this Hallmark TV Movie, Kreuk gives a 16 year old Snow White who searches friendship in garden gnomes. In a way, she expands the theme of loneliness explored by McGovern, and goes deeper about it, relating sayed loneliness with beauty: she is an awkward and melancholic person, who feels that people only care with her pretty appearance, but don’t actually come close to truly meet her as a person. In a lesser hand, this idea of a person who thinks being considered beautifull is hard could sound absurd and over dramatic, but the screenwriters and Kreuk’s sincere performance make it a compelling dilema.

07º Natalie Minko in Schneewitchen (1992)

An energetic fifteen year old, who likes to run around to play with the Court Jester, and mess up the kitchen while doing pancakes that glue in the ceiling. Minko’s Snow White is one of the few Snow White’s who is allowed to act as a normal teenager: she makes messes, she sometimes verbally fights with people, she constantly questions the adults around her, all the wille still being a genuinelly kind hearted person pursuing the path of truth.

06º Tamara Rojo in Emilio Aragon’s Blancanieves (2005)

I loved watching the DVD of this ballet production over and over as a kid. Trough dance movements, Tamara Rojo gives us a gracious and fun princess. Whetever she goes, a party will always start.

05º Adriana Caselotti in Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937)

My first portrayal of Snow White. The Disney version was raised working as a palace scullery maid, wich her stepmother hoped would make her ugly. But that didn’t work. She grows beautifull in body and soul: her singing voice is so sweet it is enough to make a dashing Prince fall in love with her, the animals are always engaged by her joyfull and sassy conversations, and she has a firm way of talking that assures a position of leadership among both the animals and the dwarfs who later befriend her. Really, she is awesome. What can i say about her that hasn’t been sayed already?

04º Marguerite Clark in Snow White (1916)

The version that inspired Walt Disney to make his version. Based on a 1912 stage play, this is the version that extablished being raised as a palace scullery maid as the reason Snow White is good with domestic tasks despite being a rich princess. Clark’s Snow White is also compassionate, sweet, romantic and dreamy, and she mix those qualities with some energy and spunkiness, being an almost wild girl.

03º Carol Heiss in Snow White and The Three Stooges (1961)

The sass, spunkiness and sweet romanticism are back, but with a new adition: an athletic hobby. Carol Heiss was originally a golden medal winner olimpic ice skater, and this movie was made to capitalize in her popularity at the time (along with reviving the Three Stooges popularity). So, we extablish in this version that the heroine who is linked to the snow loves the winter, and one of the most popular sports in this season. No other version before or after that did this, even tough its the most obvious and most awesome thing to do with the character. Ad to that the (uncredited) singing voice dubbed by Norma Zimmer, and you have one of the most complete portrayals of Snow White: she is beauty, she is grace, she can sing, she can cook and she can ice skate. She is the most interesting woman that ever lived.

02º Sakiko Tamagawa/Julie Maddalena in Grimm’s Fairy Tale Classics (1989)

Orphaned from her mother at birth and having a father who is always too busy rulling the kingdom to pay attention to her, this version of Snow White grows up raised by a nurse named Doris, and playing on the garden with a young boy named Klaus. Her favorite pass time is to climb trees to pick apples, her favorite fruit. But one day her stepmother, who for years has been ignoring her, calls the princess to her chamber, and asks if she thinks herself to be most beautifull than the Queen. Annoyed with the absurd of the question, Snow White calls her stepmother out in her vanity. What follows is her running away, having to survive as a fugitive. Getting lost from her Klaus and stumbling in a root, she crawls for her life, until being saved by the seven dwarfs and their wolf friends. Time passes, and she finds a bit of fullfilment while slowly learning to do domestic chores to help the dwarfs, and finding friendship in the wolfs and a giant black bear. But she still craves to reunite with her friend Klaus and to find some love, while the Queen’s menace lures in the air.

And now the moment everyone was expecting... My number one favorite portrayal of Snow White is:

01º Camryn Manhein in The 10th Kingdom (2000)

I know what are you thinking: “Wait, a two episode cameo in a tv minisseries, instead of a protagonist, this is your favorite”? Yes. Yes, she is. In the Hallmark minisseries The 10th Kingdom, a young lady from the real world comes to the magical world to help to disenchant a Prince that has been turned into a dog. This dog prince is Snow White’s grandson. And then the heroes arrive at the Dragon Mountain in the 09th Kingdom, and Virginia has a conversation with the spirit of the late Snow White for counsel. And Snow White counsels Virginia by simply telling her story of once being an afrayed, lonely lost girl in the woods, finding new friends in the dwarfs, suffering three murder attempts from her stepmother, being aesleep for years with the poisoned apple in her troat, until the Prince’s servants stumbled with her casket so she could trow away the apple piece, so she could finally live happily ever after. While she narrates the tale, she says that she knew the danger presented by the ribbons, the comb and the apple, but she also knew that she could hide in the dwarfs cottage, afrayed to be hurt, forever. And her husband was a good man, but she saved herself from death. With that dialogue, Manheim’s sensitive and wise Snow White ressignified the fairy tale for me, making me appreciate better the story and her character. And that is why she my number one portrayal of the fairest princess of all.

HONORABLE MENTIONS: Elke Arendt in Schneewitchen (1955), Maresa Hörbiger in Schneewitchen (1971) and Elaine Bilstad as White Snow in Happily Ever After: Fairy Tales for Every Child (1995).

Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045, un nuovo trailer svela che l’anime approderà su Netflix ad aprile

Annunciati anche il cast e i musicisti al lavoro sul progetto.

Pubblicati da Netflix un primo trailer esteso e una nuova immagine promozionale, realizzata ancora una volta dal character designer Ilya Kushinov (The Wonderland), di “Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045″, svelando che l’atteso nuovo progetto d’animazione della celebre saga fantascientifica debutterà globalmente sulla piattaforma ad aprile.

La serie è diretta in tandem da Kenji Kamiyama (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex) assieme a Shinji Aramaki (Appleseed Alpha) ed è animata in computer grafica. L’anime in lavorazione presso Production I.G e Sola Digital Arts sarà composto da due stagioni di 12 episodi ciascuna, una supervisionata da Kamiyama e l’altra da Aramaki.

Per questo nuovo anime è stato confermato il cast dei precedenti capitoli del franchise, eccezion fatta per “Ghost in the Shell Arise” nel quale figuravano altri doppiatori.

Motoko Kusanagi: Atsuko Tanaka

Daisuke Aramaki: Osamu Saka

Batou: Akio Otsuka

Togusa: Koichi Yamadera

Ishikawa: Yutaka Nakano

Saito: Toru Okawa

Paz: Takashi Onozuka

Borma: Taro Yamaguchi

Tachikoma: Sakiko Tamagawa

La colonna sonora è stata composta da Nobuko Toda (Sweetness & Lightning, The case files of Jeweler Richard) e Kazuma Jinnouchi (Busou Shinki: Moon Angel), i quali avevano già collaborato alla realizzazione di quella della recente serie di “Ultraman” uscita sempre su Netflix.

La sigla di testa, intitolata "Fly with me" e brevemente anticipata nel video, è ad opera dei millennium parade, il team creativo guidato da Daiki Tsuneta dei King Gnu, che si avvale di diversi cantanti fra i quali ermhoi, HIMI, Cota Mori e Kento Nagatsuka (WONK).

Nel 2045, dopo il crollo del capitalismo mondiale, la squadra d'élite giapponese Sezione incomincia a condurre operazioni contro i crimini informatici.

L’iconica opera cyberpunk, nata dall’omonimo manga di Masamune Shirow, edito in Italia da Star Comics, ha già ispirato negli anni due film diretti da Mamoru Oshii, “Ghost in the Shell” (1995) e “Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence” (2004), due serie tv dirette appunto da Kamiyama, “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex” (2002), “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG” (2004) e l’OVA “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - Solid State Society” (2006). Più recentemente, nel 2013 è stata animata la serie OVA prequel “Ghost in the Shell Arise”, diretta da Kise Kazuchika, proiettata nei cinema e poi adattata per la tv includendo un episodio ponte per il film “Ghost In The Shell: The Rising” (2015). Tutte le opere sono distribuite in Italia da Dynit.

Dreamworks e Paramount ne hanno prodotto nel 2017 un film live action, diretto da Rupert Sanders e con Scarlett Johansson nei panni di della protagonista.

Part A: Etsuko Kozakura x Chisa Yokoyama

Part B: Hikaru Midorikawa x Takehito Koyasu

Yes, I got lazy part of the way through the deep research stuff. Really, just read what’s above...

Part A: Yukari Tamura x Yui Horie

Yukari Tamura

Agency: Amuleto

Date of Birth: February 27, 1976 (age 43 years)

Notable Roles: [VIDEO] Tenten (Naruto), Mine (Akame ga Kill), Amane Suzuha (Steins;Gate), Natsukawa Masuzu (OreShura), Harime Nui (Kill la Kill), Furude Rika (Higurashi), Yumehara Chiyo (Saiki)

Yui Horie

Agency: VIMS

Date of Birth: September 20, 1976 (age 42 years)

Notable Roles: [VIDEO] Ayu Tsukimiya (Kanon), Minori Kushieda (Toradora!), Wiz (KonoSuba), Charles (Fairy Tail), Kouko Kaga (Golden Time), Ryuunosuke Akasaka (Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo), Aina Kuronuma (Sakamoto desu ga?), Hanyuu (Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai), Anna Kushina (K), Kisara Tendou (Black Bullet)

Related Posts: - “The seiyuu with the best singing voice?” - 42nd Birthday Post

REASON: Besides being nearly the same age, Horie formed a temporary unit called Yamato Nadeshiko with the popular seiyuu Tamura Yukari in 2001. They released two singles. They have been in anime together like Higurashi too.

Part B: Souichirou Hoshi x Akira Ishida

Souichirou Hoshi:

Agency: Arts Vision

Date of Birth: May 30, 1972 (age 46 years)

Notable Roles: Kira Yamato (Gundam), Kazuki Fuuchouin (GetBackers), Keiichi Maebara (Higurashi), Kaoru Hanabishi (Ai Yori Aoshi), Rygart Arrow (Break Blade), Makoto Isshiki (Chuunibyou), Sanada Yukimura (Sengoku Basara)

Akira Ishida

Agency: Gerbera Peerless

Date of Birth: November 2, 1967 (age 51)

Notable Roles: Athrun Zala (Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny), Kaworu Nagisa (Neon Genesis Evangelion), Kotaro Katsura (Gintama), Gaara (Naruto), Zeref Dragneel (Fairy Tail), Xerxes Break (Pandora Hearts), Keiji Mogami (Mob Psycho 100), Shuichi Natori (Natsume Yuujinchou)

REASON: These two are actually really good friends which is weird because Akira is known for being a very closed off person. He won’t even go to parties (unless his friend Hoshi is there), he doesn’t take all the roles that he’s offered, and he even took a while warming up to the Gintama cast. Even then, he can come off as a bit standoffish and hostile at times, so Hoshi is really one of the only people that are close to Ishida.

Part A: Kana Hanazawa x Haruka Tomatsu

Agency: Office Osawa

Date of Birth: February 25, 1989 (age 30 years)

REASON: Besides being nearly the same age, I actually don’t know. Hanazawa is known for being fans of her Kouhei like Yui Ogura and Ayane Sakura.

Part B: Kappei Yamaguchi x Kenichi Ogata

Kappei Yamaguchi:

Agencies: Gokū and 21st Century Fox

Date of Birth: May 23, 1965 (age 53 years)

Compilation Post (Role Compilation, Sources, etc.)

Notable Roles: Genma Saotome (Ranma ½), Professor Hiroshi Agasa (Detective Konan), Myōga (Inuyasha), King Dedede (Kirby: Right Back at Ya!)

REASON: I guess it’s because they’ve worked on Inuyasha and Ranma ½ together.

Part A: Sakiko Tamagawa x Rie Tanaka

Sakiko Tamagawa

Agency: Sigma Seven

Date of Birth: January 20, 1962 (age 57 years)

Rie Tanaka

Related Post: - “Popular Seiyuu Ranking Top 30 - 2019″ - “Top Five Kensho Ono Roles” - “Best Seiyuu Pairings"

REASON: Two Ono’s are better than one? They’re both in Jojo, but Jojo has all three Ono’s (Daisuke, Kensho, and Yuuki).

Part A: Yumiri Hanamori x Nao Touyama

Yumiri Hanamori

Agency: M&I

Date of Birth: September 29, 1997 (age 21 years)
