studio as well. A "guest," you mean. Though every studio has a story like that. No. If you think a movie... ...that's going to be spoken of uncaringly shouldn't be made at all... ...then you shouldn't speak uncaringly of a "guest," either. Don't disturb the deceased. Don't meddle with the gods. Yes, the fact that we don't know the audience makes it possible for us... ...in movies, to speak or hide freely. By the way, did you hear about screenwriter Itoh? They say it was a horrible sight. Anything to do with this job? Can't tell either way yet. But why did he die the way he did? In a movie, people tend to want to spill their guts. It's true that a lot of truths are in what's spilled... ...but things that could nauseate you are also in there. Despite that, when the act of spilling one's guts is often attempted... ...it's because movie-making is still considered a special privilege. Just as practicing magic is. Itoh was one of those who was caught up in such an illusion. A screenwriter tends to fall into a Ionely dialogue with his movie. It causes him to isolate himself, to feel stagnated and frustrated and eventually... ...it invites a situation where he ends up spilling his guts out. That's precisely why one should make a movie by communicating with others. "Dialogue propels a movie forward." You haven't changed. Director! L-it's the color keys, Aya and Tsuya! Their heads were stuffed into paint bottles or something? How did you know? What? I can't believe these two would commit suicide. But who? What the hell for? The screenwriter Itoh was found as a dismembered corpse. And now the color keys Aya and Tsuya. Maybe there will be many more deaths. It's possible that this only heralds of more serious matters. Handawara, hurry. To Ohtsuka... The animation director Ohtsuka's apartment! Hello, this is animation director Ohtsuka. By the time this animation is discovered, I will probably have left this world. Someone nailed my apartment door shut, making it impossible for me to get out. 2 weeks have gone by. Thinking that someone would eventually rescue me, ...I took the situation lightly and stayed holed up in my apartment. How stupid of me. By the time I ate up all my food... ...I had no strength left to break the door open. And, I tried to call for help... ...but the phone didn't work since I hadn't paid the phone bill. Most likely, I will gradually die from exhaustion. I guess you could call it fate. Given the infamous name "The Phantom Animator"... ...which I never reflected on until now, I have spent my life in idleness. Maybe I am being made to pay for it now. Yet, during these last moments of my life... ...as animation director of the current project... ...I wish to continue making notes about the theme given to me by Director Maruwa... ...until I run out of gas. That's why I picked up my pencil. To the inbetweener in charge; My hand is shaky from malnutrition, so the key drawings are rough. But please frame the two in-between into two. To speak about a character always involves a certain type of difficulty. That is because, when speaking about a character... ...one is more vulnerable, is strongly urged by one's unconsciousness... ...and without even realizing it, is forced to take an ideological standpoint. As you know, the audience usually understands the roles in the story... ...such as heroes and villains, through cinematic figures called... ..."personas" or the instance of "specific roles performed by actors"... ...as well as the instance of the individuals who are identifiable... ...and have inner human rights. However, in animation... ...actors serving as actual entities of these "personas" do not exist. That makes the matter even more complex and mysterious. As long as movements and voices are added accordingly by voice talents... ...there are no characters that cannot exist in animation.
