[162] Opening!

"Here we are... it's time, starting at noon."

Looking at the crowds around him, Takehito Koyasu pondered, "Well, it's also a good time to explore."

Although anyone could sign up, passing the audition was not guaranteed. According to the information Takehito Koyasu received, over twenty people had passed the audition for the role of Dio Brando, and the final decision would be made in the next two days.

As a reward for passing the audition, travel expenses and the ticket to the JOJO theme park were reimbursed.

...

"Takehito Koyasu..." Kazuya looked at the registration form in front of him, stroking his chin. "He's actually here, and... he even managed to arrive at the perfect time."

After all, this was the Type-Moon universe.

Speaking of voice actors...

He did a brief search based on memory. In the past, there were some voice actors in this era in the Type-Moon universe. However, there were also some... perhaps he hadn't found them, or for other reasons. In any case, he hadn't discovered their traces.

As for Takehito Koyasu's information, he found it as well. He debuted in 1988, fitting the current timeline. One could say his timing was just right.

Hmm...

He wondered what it would be like if Suba Takeshi conducted a Heroic Spirit summon and summoned Ramesses II, Ozymandias.

The scene of the two of them laughing together would be quite interesting.

No... hold on, he had to resist the temptation.

Summoning Ozymandias, the ancient Egyptian pharaoh—bringing him into reality—was somewhat beyond his capabilities.

But there was absolutely no need to do that, so he decided to let it go.

But still, he couldn't help but want to see it!

In reality, Kazuya had already stopped drawing the sequel to Fate in this Type-Moon world. The stories of the Type-Moon universe had come to an end.

But—

After going through the Holy Grail War, his abilities had weakened.

He could only summon characters he had already drawn, meaning he could only summon characters from JOJO, Fate/Zero, and Fate/stay night. This limited his choices for Heroic Spirits.

It seemed like he would have to continue drawing Fate stories... but what to draw?

Draw Fate/Strange Fake? Fate/Apocrypha? Fate/Extra? Fate/Prototype?

Or maybe Fate/Grand Order?

First of all, he couldn't draw Fate/Apocrypha. Not because the plot was bad—plots could be changed—but because of its core setting.

The Holy Grail War had already passed, and according to Emiya Kiritsugu, the Mage's Association had taken the Greater Grail to the Clock Tower. So, there might be a situation where the next seven Masters are selected from the Clock Tower.

If he drew Fate/Apocrypha in this scenario, it would be like reminding them of the hidden mechanism in the Greater Grail.

When seven Masters were selected from the Clock Tower, he could summon all seven. It would create a seven versus seven situation.

If he gave a hint to the Clock Tower at this time, they might discover the hidden mechanism in the Greater Grail and deactivate it.

Even if they couldn't deactivate it completely.

If seven couldn't work, having six here would be enough.

It was risky.

Because... he still wanted to participate in the next Holy Grail War!

Although he didn't know if this setting would be revealed in this universe, he had to find an opportunity.

Oh right...

FGO wouldn't be bad.

FGO was a good choice.

However, he had to make sure that Lev Lainur didn't commit suicide first. Otherwise, it would attract the attention of the King of Magecraft, Solomon.

After all, he only had three Command Spells, making it challenging to deal with someone of that caliber.

But if Lev Lainur did commit suicide, everything would be over...

He could use FGO as material for a manga.

However, the beginning of FGO's plot wasn't that interesting, and some of the game's settings were irrelevant in a manga adaptation. It needed careful consideration.

If successful—

He would have an additional, not to mention multiple, Heroic Spirits as a support. He could summon them anytime with Command Spells!

It was almost perfect!

Of course, he still needed to carefully consider the specifics.

Wait until... after his European journey ended to make a decision.

...

"It looks impressive." Takehito Koyasu exclaimed in surprise as he entered, holding the ticket and map.

The map was divided into three parts. To the right, after entering the main gate, was the direction of "Phantom Blood." Going straight led to "Battle Tendency," and going left led to "Stardust Crusaders."

In the middle, there were sections like the "Wax Museum," "Management," which was the place for the voice actor selection, and "JOJO Career," which seemed like a roller coaster.

The recommended travel route was to go to the right, where there was a road that seemed to go around the entire theme park. After visiting all areas, Takehito Koyasu could see everything in order.

"At this time... there are still three hours." Takehito Koyasu looked at his watch and sighed. It was almost time, and he could roughly see everything in order.

Moving forward, he quickly arrived at the "Battle Tendency" section.

"Oh, is this where Joseph and Wamuu fought? It looks so cool." Takehito Koyasu marveled, especially when looking from a distance, it seemed as if they had come straight out of the manga!

Then—he saw the lake in front of him and the small island in the middle.

"Is that the place where JOJO and the others trained..."

Looking at the time, although he wanted to take a boat like JOJO and the others, it seemed like there would be a long queue for the boat. Even with the VIP ticket, it was the same. So... he decided to take the bridge.

"Ah huh? Is that a ship over there?" Looking at the ship in the distance, Takehito Koyasu was a little surprised, and then suddenly thought of something, widening his eyes. "Could it be the one where DIO was salvaged?"

...

"Wow—this is cool!"

January 22, 1989, was a Sunday, so naturally, there were many students who came here.

Like Ishibashi Tokiwa.

He didn't go anywhere else but came straight here—JOJO's latest serialized Stardust Crusaders for a play.

But from the moment he walked into the gate and saw the Egyptian scenery on the left, he immediately changed course. It seemed right, so he turned around from the Battle Tendency area and headed towards the Stardust Crusaders area.

As expected, he chose correctly. The first thing he saw was the ship salvaged from DIO.
