A new arc finally
begins and it still focuses on Miho's chances of getting the role of Naho. Now
the question rises again, will Miho get the role?
Mashiro's
everyday life has changed [for this day, that is].
After last chapter's
talk with Miho via Azukyun's Radioshow, it's not even a bit surprising for it
to be on the news the next day. What's funny is Mashiro's mother's sudden
reaction or comment regarding their reaction. Oh! And take note, this
practically is the first time Mashiro's mother gave her opinion regarding their
relationship :3 Proves that a mother and a son doesn't really have that kind of
relationship (if you know what I mean).
Other than Mashiro's
mother, it was funny how surprise he was when a couple of junior high students
approached him asking for his autograph. This practically shows how
popular Ashirogi Mutou has gotten,
rather Mashiro, himself, has gotten.
It's no secret that
Hattori's rooting for Mashiro and Miho. He has always been encouraging Ashirogi
Mutou despite all the struggles they encounter during the Mashiro x Miho Issue
Arc but I guess it's just part of Hattori's job as well being their editor since
he can never let the Ashirogi-duo to go down at this time of their career when
they're finally reaching their peek BUT knowing Hattori, he definitely is
rooting for them. I mean we all know how much he has been attached to Ashirogi
Mutou ever since the first day they showed him their very first manuscript.
Public
Auditions + Online Votes.
Honestly speaking, I
don't see the problem with public auditions. At the beginning of the chapter,
we were informed that Miho's part of the top female V.A. but not yet the number
one. With the public auditions going (with the top V.A. being informed of how
great an opportunity this is to voice of another popular JUMP series), I
already expect more V.A.s will be introduce. I'm interested in getting to know
more female characters along with their different characteristics since I do
believe that Ohba-sensei has improved so much in terms of portraying female
characters.
Yes, as I have
mentioned, the public audition is to be expected but the main issue that made
Mashiro panic a little (or not little at all) is the director's decision of
giving the choice to the public. Meaning, the public gets to vote whom they
want to voice Naho without any interference from the staff. The director
himself believes that Miho fits the role well that's why he decided to do this.
By doing this, Miho still has good chances of getting the role but in a more
transparent way since it's also Mashiro's fear for the public to believe that
Miho got the role due to her connections.
