[166] Voice Acting for Takehito Koyasu

"Alright, good boy. Dad, I'm off!"

With the voice of the "Jonathan" voice actor coming through the front desk, Takehito Koyasu also felt a bit nervous.

In his mind, he repeated the first line he would say when he appeared.

Finally!

Watching the screen in front of him, he turned off the sound on the side and took a deep breath. The light on the microphone on his side indicated that his microphone was already turned on.

In the next moment, he, with a tone of helplessness and impatience, projected his presence onto Dio Brando, suppressing the emotions and reading his lines, "What, old man, need medicine?"

"Fool! What's the use of medicine! Alcohol! Instead of wasting money on medicine, buy me some alcohol!"

At this point, his microphone was turned off again.

He sighed with relief and turned on the front desk sound.

For now, it's just the beginning. Each time, he only had a few lines, but as the plot progressed, his lines would increase. That means... the possibility of making mistakes would also increase!

Later, it quickly came to his turn again.

This time, he only had one phrase to say, "General," and afterward, he just needed to hum with a voice of pain, helplessness, and anger.

After that, from the next Dio's lines, they started to increase.

"Ugly, cunning, my mother died for you, you are the worst father." Takehito Koyasu immersed himself in the role of Dio and said, "To think I served a rich and powerful man? Haha, let me show you how I use everything to my advantage, including being a noble in Joestars!"

"Scum! Bah—"

Saying that, Takehito Koyasu pretended to spit.

After that, expressing the common sentiments of himself and Dio, he said, "I will become a man who won't lose to anyone!"

However, in his heart, he meant a voice actor. He would become the top voice actor in Japan... no, in the world!

He slightly felt disappointed when he turned on the front desk sound. There still wasn't the cheering sound for him, but there were cheers and laughter from other voice actors...

If this continues... could he be eliminated?

Takehito Koyasu gritted his teeth.

Afterward, time quickly passed, about ten minutes or so.

Takehito Koyasu felt nervous inside because there was a significant segment of lines for him! This was the climax he considered with two explosive points!

Now, he must seize this opportunity!

"Hey, are you Erina?" Takehito Koyasu's gentle voice said, "You seem to be very close to JOJO. I feel it's strange. He should be very frustrated, but recently he seems very proud. It turns out to be like this."

The next moment—

In the scene in front of him, Dio Brando grabbed Erina, who was trying to run away, and kissed her!

Here it comes! It's about to happen!

Taking advantage of this moment, Takehito Koyasu closed his microphone for a few seconds, let out a breath, and opened the front desk sound.

"Done... done!" The voice of the supporting actor came through, "Dio is truly incredible. Things we can't do, he can easily accomplish."

"Oh oh oh oh—"

The next moment, hearing the cheers from outside, he slightly breathed a sigh of relief. This plot had been repeated five times today! Surprised by the plot? No... wrong! It should be because of his voice acting!

After that, he closed the microphone and opened the front desk sound.

The other supporting actor finished his sentence at this time, "This is what people admire, what people envy!"

Looking at the scene of Erina lying in the mud on the screen, Takehito Koyasu immediately said, "Have you kissed JOJO yet? Not yet, right... Your first time wasn't given to JOJO, but to me, DIO!"

"Means are not a problem. As long as the result of stealing a kiss is achieved, her relationship with JOJO is over. I won't let JOJO have friends or lovers around him!"

"Look... look! What is this person thinking? Washing his mouth in the mud? Is his brain malfunctioning? The river is not far away..." The surprised voice of the supporting actor came through, but it still wasn't surprised enough... it had a bit of a reading effect.

Supporting actors are supporting actors because they lack confidence in themselves, so they chose such roles. Clearly, anyone could be cast based on qualifications and connections, but they still chose supporting roles. You could hear from their voices that they weren't passionate about their characters.

"This... this woman!" Takehito Koyasu shouted into the microphone, "Is she deliberately washing her mouth in the mud to demonstrate against me?"

"Damn! This DIO actually had his dignity crushed by a woman..." Takehito Koyasu gritted his teeth, suppressing his angry tone, and continued, "Enough! Let's go..."

"Huff huff—"

The next moment, he closed the microphone, opened the front desk, and breathed heavily, "So tired... immersing oneself in the role..."

He had also played supporting roles before, and it was his first encounter with voice acting. At that time, he had seen how others recorded, which was completely different from this. It was often cut and edited.

Like the seniors among voice actors who had the ability to record a whole scene without stopping.

And now, he, a newcomer, faced such a challenge as his first attempt... it was really stressful!

Although the room was not particularly hot, he felt that the clothes on his back were already soaked.

But... hold on a little longer... it's almost... almost over!

There was only the last part left.

But, the next moment, he felt that not much time had passed before it was his turn again.

That's right... there was only a short interval of about ten minutes between the two sections.

At such times, it felt like time was not passing much.

"Dio——!!!" Accompanied by the voice actor for Jonathan's angry roar.

Takehito Koyasu also said into the microphone, "You really know how to casually... use others' names!"

"Absolutely unforgivable. Not because you framed me, I don't care about that myself!"

"Oh ho." Takehito Koyasu said with a pleasant tone, "So, you know about that, the thing with the beloved Erina. Do you want to retaliate against me with a punch?"

"I absolutely won't allow you to insult her in any way!"

"Too ugly! Your jealous look!" In the scene, after Dio's elbow hit Jonathan's face, blood splattered out, "Want to be beaten up like last time by my punch? Fool!"

"I can't win in a fight. But if I admit defeat now, I'll have to live under Dio's shadow in the future. More importantly, I have to fight to restore Erina's honor!"

"I will fight until you admit defeat, and it must be honorable! In this way, the fact that you can't beat me, DIO! Will be deeply imprinted on you, JOJO! Whether it's fighting or in life!"

"Oh oh—!!!" Jonathan roared and rushed toward DIO.

"Come on!" DIO suddenly caught Jonathan's fist, and after a knee hit him in the face, Takehito Koyasu began to voice, "Very good, this feeling is really good!"

The next moment, Jonathan reversed hands and grabbed him!

"This... this guy... he took my knee hit and grabbed me! Want another one! Ugh—" The next moment, Jonathan's head struck DIO's nose with force.

Blood splattered.

"Dio——I'll make you cry!" Taking advantage of Dio's brief loss of consciousness, Jonathan's fists struck DIO's face in rapid succession.

"This way... this way... this scum actually dares to defy me, DIO————"

Directly knocking Dio away, blood splattered on the stone mask on the wall. The next moment, under Jonathan's astonished gaze, the Stone Mask popped out bone claws and fell to the ground.

"Actually... actually... actually defied me..." Dio in the scene said with tears streaming down his face, but, with his hand behind him, he took out a small knife and shouted, "You despicable bastard!"

Closing the microphone, he let out a deep breath. Too tired... exhausted...

Not only him, but also on the other side, the Jonathan voice actor was tired as well. Just listening to the voices, it was clear that he was also exhausted.

But—this fatigue precisely compounded with Jonathan's mood at the time.

Jonathan was also very tired, both physically and mentally...

In this case, he was at a disadvantage here... the thing about voice actors, when compared, whoever immersed themselves in the role, who was reading, could be heard at once.

But luckily... there was still the final... the last line.

And these didn't take too much effort. Overall... it's over.

The success or failure next will depend on the audience's votes outside!
