"In my spare time, I sit in the office drinking tea and chatting; when I'm busy, I become a reliable helper in the eyes of my colleagues."

"Relatively speaking, screenwriting is a more suitable profession for me."

"As for light novels, let's just treat them as a hobby."

Looking at the smile on her brother's face, Komachi was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses after he left.

'Isn't this incredibly handsome? Where's the shame in it?'

So, after all that talk, who did my brother actually choose?

'Hmm...excluding Yukinoshita and Yuigahama, does that mean you've chosen Isshiki?'

'So, from now on I'll have to call Isshiki-senpai "sister-in-law"?'

......

That evening, after lights out, Hachiman Hikigaya received a call from Iroha Isshiki.

Of course, he wasn't surprised by this.

She's the only person who would call me at night.

"Senior, are you asleep?"

"Nope."

"Senior, what did you fill in for your career path after graduation? Although it's still a long time before I graduate, can I use it as a reference?"

"I'll work part-time while pursuing further education."

"Hmm...that really fits your situation, senior."

At that moment, the other end of the phone suddenly went silent.

Just as Hachiman Hikigaya was wondering if the signal was bad or if he had accidentally hung up, Iroha Isshiki's voice came again:

"Senior, after dinner tonight, I was discussing the future with my mom. I said I want to be a bride someday. Hehe...Senior, doesn't that sound really cute?"

"Smart."

"Senior, after I finished speaking, I thought my mother would be angry and make me more serious. Unexpectedly, she told me very seriously that if I were to get married, my partner should ideally be an editor. Of course, an animation screenwriter is also acceptable."

"Oh..."

"Senior, how about becoming an editor? Animation scriptwriter is also an option."

"...I've already spoken with screenwriter Mai-no-Mai. After graduating from high school, before going to university, I'll go for an interview at the Musashino Scriptwriting Department."

"Oh... is this a confession, senior? I'm sorry, it feels great to be confessed to by someone I've been pursuing, but I'd prefer it to be said in person, not over the phone. It just doesn't feel right. Please pick a special day and let's start over!"

Hachiman Hikigaya couldn't help but laugh. The voice actors in the anime had excellent delivery, but in reality, to be able to speak such a long sentence in one breath without biting his tongue or making a mistake was quite impressive.

But how many times am I going to be rejected by you?

"understood."

"Huh...? I... won? Hehe... Senior, I'm suddenly looking forward to tomorrow."

"Bye."

......

At the Isshiki family home, upon hearing the eerie laughter coming from her daughter's room, Isshiki's mother couldn't help but knock on the door.

"What are you doing? Are you crazy?"

"No, Mom, I'm watching a movie."

"Why aren't you asleep so late? You have to go to school tomorrow."

"Okay, Mom, thank you."

? ?

"You're welcome."

Honestly, this child seems like she'll never grow up; it really worries me about her future.

Chapter 401 Why didn't we start something this interesting sooner?

In the afternoon, in the recording studio, Sanzenin Nagi couldn't help but yawn.

Before we knew it, it was already late November, and with winter approaching, the weather was getting colder and colder.

My mother stopped coming to the recording studio last week, and I'm always alone now.

What made her want to curse the most was that the dubbing sessions were mostly scheduled after school in the afternoon.

In this situation, no matter how unwilling she was, she had no choice but to go to school and do voice acting every day, spending more than ten hours a day away from home.

In addition, because all of Takasu Yasuko's scenes were recorded ahead of schedule, the workload for the others became very heavy.

"Nagi, this winter is a bit too cold. Would you like this?"

When Nagi Sanzenin saw Doma Umaru walking over with a hamster-shaped hand warmer, she was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to her senses.

"What are you doing here? You shouldn't have a character in this anime, right?"

"I took on a random character and came here to get some rewards."

"Um...?"

Seeing her eyes light up, as if she had discovered some secret, Doma Umaru smiled and said:

"The rewards for extra characters are very basic. For example, if the anime gets a 4-star rating, the main voice actor will receive a super skill reward, while the extra voice actors will only receive item rewards, such as a computer or something?"

"Of course, if a passerby performs exceptionally well, the reward will occasionally come out in a flash."

"From computers to a year or half a year of sports experience."

It turned out to be the case.

Sanzenin Nagi seemed to be deep in thought. Passersby usually only have one or a few lines, leaving no impression on the audience and not requiring any acting skills.

So, it's purely a matter of luck.

Unless, of course, the rating reaches 5 stars.

Why are you so warm?

“Probably…because slimes don’t feel cold?” Umaru Doma said with a smile.

Sanzenin Nagi wanted to complain, but then she suddenly remembered the skill she had previously acquired and became thoughtful.

The ability to transform into a slime once sparked a lot of discussion, but for some reason the news was suppressed and not many people discussed it. However, this kind of transformation skill is never simple.

"If you're not cold, why are you carrying a hand warmer?"

"This was just tossed to me by the president; he said everyone gets one."

Then why don't I have it? What are his standards for "everyone"?

Moreover, the plush toy in Umaru's hand is shaped like a hamster, which is obviously custom-made.

On the other side of the recording studio, Hyakuka Enjo curiously watched Man'yo Shibasaki, who was staring intently at Nagi Sanzenin, and covered her lips with her script, whispering:

Do you care about them a lot?

“They are different from us.”

"That's right. After all, they are both young ladies from wealthy families. They haven't received any professional training and are just here to experience life under the guise of part-time work."

“That’s not what I meant. If we’re going to go by that logic, you’re not much different.”

Shibasaki Manyo thought for a moment, then said:

"Her voice is very special. Even though she has not received any professional training, this is only the first role she has ever voiced."

"It's not the character himself either; the appearance is quite different, and the personality isn't exactly the same either."

"But... the voices sounded remarkably similar, especially those three insults, which were unforgettable."

"Yes." Yuan Sheng Baihua sighed softly.

She never doubted her own talent, but when facing Sanzenin Nagi, she couldn't help but feel a little insecure.

Even though I'm just an amateur, I felt suppressed when doing voice acting.

If the other person is a senior, she can understand; it's perfectly normal for her acting skills to be inferior.

But the other party was just a newbie, a complete novice.

While reading the script and waiting for the recording to begin, they chatted to pass the time.

These two things are not contradictory. After all, the script has been out for several days, and I've already memorized it perfectly. Looking at it now would only affect my performance during the dubbing later.

I don't know how much time passed, maybe a minute, maybe three minutes, when suddenly a few people came in from outside the door.

The man at the head of the group was recognized by everyone present; he was Masamune Hayase, the president of Musashino Entertainment.

But the people behind him, even though it was their first time meeting, instantly attracted everyone's attention.

The next moment, everyone stood up, and all the main voice actors gathered around.

"President, who are these people?" Doma asked curiously.

"Considering that the dubbing effect in the last episode was not very good, and it was repeated until after 11 p.m., we have invited several people involved to provide on-site guidance for your dubbing today."

After Masamune finished speaking, he introduced the person to everyone:

"You should recognize them by now. Yes, these are the characters from the anime Toradora!"

"This is the female protagonist, Taiga Aisaka, now known as Taiga Takasu. This is the male protagonist, Ryuji Takasu..."

Seeing the adult male and female protagonists, the voice actors present felt a sense of novelty, but also a strong sense of urgency.

If you do a bad job dubbing for someone in front of them, it would be terrible.

In the worst-case scenario, he might be replaced.

"Hello, Ms. Kushieda, my name is Hyakuka Ono, and I play the role of Minori Kushieda in the drama."

Yuan Sheng Baihua did not hesitate and immediately stepped forward to greet him.

I'm not the voice actress for Musashino, so getting the role of the second female lead is already quite an achievement, and I must cherish it.
