Gundam Wing Secret Operation (1996) Side B (Cast Comment)

M = Midorikawa Hikaru (Heero’s VA); S = Seki Toshihiko (Duo’s VA); N = Nakahara Shigeru (Trowa’s VA); O = Orikasa Ai (Quatre’s VA); I = Ishino Ryūzō (Wufei’s VA); R = Okiayu Ryūtarō (Treize’s VA); K = Koyasu Takehito (Zechs/Milliardo’s VA)

~~~

M: Since the boys have left us in charge, let’s just move onto our self introductions. My name is Midorikawa Hikaru, and I voiced Heero Yuy. The plot of the actual anime was mostly quite serious, so I had a lot of fun recording these comedic skits. If this project garnered enough support, we might get the chance to do a second one, so please make sure to show your support! If we were to make another audio drama, I would personally be really happy if the leader of the circus and Howard were to make an appearance, as I really like those two characters. See you again in the future!

S: Thank you for listening till the end. My name is Seki Toshihiko, the voice for Duo Maxwell. I never expected to re-affiliate with Gundam through a project like this (chuckles). How did you like this parody of Gundam Wing? Whether it be through another parody or something else, I hope that I’ll have the chance to meet everyone again as a member of the GW cast in the future. Goodbye!

N: Hello, thank you for sticking till the end. I am Nakahara Shigeru and I voiced Trowa Barton. Trowa was very docile in the anime, so I was a little worried about how he would fare in this audio drama, but it seems like he is slowly opening himself up more. I really want to see Trowa going all the way out, so here is to hoping that we will get another chance to do something similar to this in the future. Once again, thank you for listening!

O: If the higher ups had let this group do whatever we wanted to do, there is no telling how far we would end up going. Today, I was able to experience this fear first-hand. I am Quatre’s VA, Orikasa Ai. Although I am really fond of the serious story of the anime, I also really love projects such as this one where everyone is able to have a lot of fun. During the recording session today, the studio was generous enough to provide us with slices of cakes as refreshments, so the entire team sat down and ate together. As for Okiayu-kun (Okiayu saying “What? Me?” in the background), he ate 8 slices! (Everyone erupts into laughter while Okiayu shouts “I only ate 4!”). Please look forward to the next audio drama! 

(Koyasu in the background saying “Okiayu-kun just got slandered”) 

I: Hi everyone, thank you for listening. My name is Ishino Ryūzō, and I was given the honour of voicing Chang Wufei. Ever since I took on the role of Wufei and became a part of the GW cast, many people from around the country have sent me letters with a lot of encouraging words written in them, so I would like to convey my gratitude using this opportunity. In their letters, a lot of people have said that they would like to be yelled at by Wufei, so we tried to incorporate that as a part of this audio drama. Hope everyone liked it! See you next week!

(The rest of the cast laughing in the background) 

R: What is this “next week” that Ishino-san was referring to? Anyways, my name is Okiayu Ryūtarō, the voice of Treize Khushrenada. I only ate one slice of cake. (Laughs) I am trying my best to go on a diet. (To the rest of the cast who are laughing in the background) Stop laughing you guys! Since I (here Okiayu is referring to Treize) have died at the end of the anime, I didn’t think that I would have the chance to make another appearance. Even though I was resurrected as the weird school principal this time, I have no idea whether I would appear in the next audio drama or not (chuckles). Thank you so much for today, and thank you for listening.

K: Don’t know how I ended up being the last one, but here we are. I am Koyasu Takehito, the VA of Zechs Merquise. As it has been a while since the anime ended, I wasn’t able to pronounce Chang Wufei when I read the script for the first time (both Koyasu and the rest of the cast laughs). What’s wrong with me today… Now, go back to side A.

This is one of three Tenchi novels set in the Tokyo universe. The cool thing about these light novels was they also included a mini CD with a monologue by Ryoko's Japanese voice Actress, Ai Orikasa, in character as Ryoko, as well as music to set the mood for the novel.

It's great that after more than 10 years, "Two Shots" and "All or nothing" were finally made into OVAs in 2018.

There's also an original mini drama story written and directed by Shigeru Chiba (Kazuma Kuwabara VA). Part 1 was released in the Music Battle Edition 2 (1994), and Part 2 in the Yu Yu Hakusho Memorial CD BOX (1995). The cast is Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei, Kurama and Botan.

"Yu Yu Hakusho Special Mini Drama ~ The Hungry Warriors" (Part 1 & 2)

This is a drama that makes fun of the lack of eating scenes in anime, where Yusuke and his friends argue over what to eat. Among them, Hiei wants to eat monjayaki. In the manga, when Hiei melted Bui's axe, Kuwabara says "It melted like chocolate''. In the anime, his line was changed to "It melted like monjayaki''. So, it was probably an in-joke between the voice actors, using the mini drama as reference.

I don't know if there's any translations. I remember someone told me they were translating the mini drama, but I haven't heard anything since then. Does anyone know if there's any translations?

Dog Signal Episode 19 Review - You Can Do That, Can't You?

The penultimate episode revolves around Miyu and Singe and it seems to be a two-parter as it focuses on Miyu on a deeper level. Come to think of it, Miyu is the main character and he’s been here since episode 1 yet we never learned much of Miyu until now. All we knew about Miyu was that he had dated Yuko; they broke up after she dumped him; she then dumped Singe onto him and he was forced to live with a dog he didn’t want until he learned to love him. Who was Miyu before Yuko? Who was he before Singe and Niwa shaped his life? This is where his backstory comes to play.

Throughout the show, Miyu has shown to be kind of a pushover and naive. There are instances where he can be serious and emotional too. However, his biggest flaw is that he’s very impatient. When Singe doesn’t listen, he gets frustrated and upset. He sort of behaves like a stressed parent at times—and that’s where his backstory comes to play. I’m not a psychoanalyst, but it seems that he suffered through parentification growing up due to his toxic parents. His mother had a bad habit of spending her money and focusing her attention anywhere but her kids. His father couldn’t control that behavior, so he just gave up on her.; he expected Miyu to care for her when he couldn’t. Because of this, he practically had to be the parent to his family growing up. He was over-relied upon from his parents and had to be his younger brother Saki’s parent growing up; he’s also seen as the sort of “peacemaker” of the family whenever there’s an issue. He was given way too many expectations and he had to believe he had to be this way growing up.

As an adult, it resulted him in being a bit of a pushover because he wants to be seen as reliable and competent. If he’s not reliable and competent, then what is his purpose in life? Unfortunately, this upbringing has been so ingrained into him that he is slowly becoming his mother with the way he is behaving towards Singe in this episode. He hasn’t realized until Singe was taken away from him that he was behaving just like her. I think that becoming the people we don’t want to be is a scary feeling.

Singe’s tantrums stem from Miyu not giving him treats and pampering him like he usually does. All the dog wants is to be loved, but with Miyu’s behavior, it does make sense why he started misbehaving. Singe has a strong personality, so Miyu has to be on the same wavelength and not treat him like a human child. Miyu got a bit cocky, so this incident is a process of humbling him.

I find it hilarious how Miyu’s terrible mom is voiced by Ai Orikasa, who has voiced another crap mom in Ren Sohma from the Fruits Basket remake. The amount of well-known guest voice actors is crazy and they’re ending off with another big name. I don’t know who Miyu’s dad and brother are voiced by.

I just hope that this conflict gets resolved beautifully. I do like how unlike Niwa and Ritsuka’s issues that were centered around dogs, Miyu’s issues stems from humans and how it affects his behavior towards his dog. I can’t wait to see how the finale will be. I know for a fact that I am going to bawl my eyes out at the ending. What are your thoughts?

My Review of Shoukoushi Cedie

(a.k.a. Little Lord Fauntleroy; Our Boy Ceddie; etc.)

Let’s get back to watching some World Masterpiece Theater animes with another anime loosely based on another novel by Francis Hodgson-Burnett. Unlike my familiarity of her other works like The Secret Garden and A Little Princess, I never knew this story.

I’ve heard of the name many times (mostly used as an insult) and would see movie adaptations here and there, but would never sit down to watch any of them. There are movies to this story. Quite a bit, actually! There are two prominent versions out there that people would flock to. The first would be the 1936 adaptation with Freddie Bartholomew and Mickey Rooney. And the other would be the 1980 adaptation starring future dick-head Ricky Schroder.

Cedric Errol (Ceddie to those who know him well) is a happy-go-lucky child. He lives with his parents in Brooklyn, NY. He loves baseball. He’s a wide-eyed optimist. If any of his friends are in a jam, he will always help them out. Would anybody think this little boy could be an heir to an earl in England? Ceddie’s father James was trying to hide that previous life by moving far away from England. But misfortune struck with James’s brother suddenly passing away and then James winds up passing away with a heart attack. This leaves Ceddie without a father but also leaves him with a title across the pond.

Sometime after James’s death, Ceddie was visited by his grandfather’s lawyer, Mr. Havisham and the intentions are to take Ceddie away from Brooklyn and have him live with his grandfather in England. His grandfather is the Earl of Dorincourt and with all of his sons gone, Ceddie is to be the next heir to the earldom. Upon arrival, Ceddie was given literally everything a child could want and more. The only downside to this is that his dearest mother could not live with him. The reason is because Ceddie’s grandfather has a disdain for the American woman his son married.

Probably because she looks like his dead wife. Whatever that reason may be, they promised to keep it away from Ceddie to keep him from hating his grandfather. Once meeting his only grandson, The Earl bonded with Ceddie in a way he didn’t expect to. Will Ceddie soften the heart of this crotchety old earl?

BETWEEN THE SUB AND DUB: Once again, I’m reviewing an anime from the World Masterpiece Theater collection so that means there’s no licensing or an English dub. There’s word that this anime aired in England back in the 1990s and it was dubbed. But I have been unable to locate any footage or proof that it exists. As for the sub, I found this interesting tidbit. This was Ai Orikasa’s voice acting debut. I always like to hear voice actor’s first role and see how far they’ve come from there. It looked like Orikasa was on good terms as she went on to voice another major character in the World Masterpiece Theater collection. Now, I want to bring to your attention the availability of this anime on the internet. This was the one anime I found difficulty finding with semi-decent subs. So just be aware of this little hurdle you might come across if your wish is to view this story. With that said, here’s what you might recognize these folks from.

*Ceddie is played by Ai Orikasa (known for Ryoko on Tenchi Muyo, Ren on Fruits Basket 2019, Jakotsu on InuYasha, Shizuru on Yu Yu Hakusho, Tohma on Gravitation, and Romeo on Romeo’s Blue Skies)

*The Earl is played by Takeshi Watabe (known for Gamabunta on Naruto) [R.I.P.]

*Annie is played by Tomoko Munakata

RESPECTED CHARACTER: This honor goes to Annie. Ceddie’s mother gets my full respect. Annie has persevered through the hardest moments in her life. In the span of several months, Annie lost her husband to a heart condition, became the bread winner of her house, had to uproot her entire life to another country, and be separated from her one and only son because her father-in-law said so. Despite all of that, she still put on a brave face. While living in Dorincourt, she would help those around her, especially the sick and disabled. I’m happy that Annie was eventually able to see Ceddie every now and then throughout the series. I just wished The Earl would have come to his senses early on. Who taught Ceddie all of those manners you like him for? His mother Annie, that’s who!

PROTECT THAT SMILE: This is Cocky. I like Cocky. Protect her smile at all costs!

DISLIKED CHARACTER: Hmm…does this anime have a snot-nosed bitch for me to rag on or a bastard old man?

Oh my, it does! However, my hatred for Bridget was only for a few episodes. Her mother on the other hand is another story. Thankfully, we don’t see them that often and the whole thing with Bridget was resolved sooner than you’d think. As for the bastard old man, that would be The Earl. Like with Bridget, my hatred for him waned over time. Yes, he did piss me off when he got in a hissy-fit whenever Ceddie’s mother was brought up. I’ve dealt with that in my youth where certain family members trash-talked my mother. I hate them. But the Earl slowly became accepting of Annie and most of that thanks goes to Ceddie. He’s a saint. I think everyone can come together to hate one, single character. And that is…

Newick! Nobody likes him.

He’s a debt collector. He’s an asshole. He lies to cover his own ass and steals. That’s all there is to him. He’s terrible. Oh and he tried to hurt Cocky. Fuck this guy!

Oh, you thought I was going to say Minna, weren’t you? That’s the obvious choice. My hatred for Newick gradually built over a certain amount of time because he was on the series longer than that gold-digging ho.

SADDEST MOMENT: Death is a familiar topic brought up throughout nearly all of the stories featured in Japan’s World Masterpiece Theater. And the ones I saw in previous animes from this collection didn’t really strike a chord with me. Don’t get me wrong, they were tragic, but most of them were just followed by an intense streak of anger brought on by the circumstance. Most notably, Fantine’s death in Les Miserables and Alfredo’s parents assassination in Romeo’s Blue Skies got me angry. Watching Ceddie’s father die was just sad!

Watching James cry while saying his final words on this earth as Ceddie performs his favorite song is enough to blast you in the gut. And little Ceddie is just so innocent in this scene and thinks his father just fell asleep. Scenes like that just don’t get any easier to watch. That’s why I get choked up when Mufasa dies in The Lion King and Simba tries to wake him up.

ACCURATE OR NOT: Okay, a lot of these animes I’ve been watching have been pretty good with accuracy. Will this one do the same? Ehh…hard to tell. Filler episodes are everywhere here so anything is possible. This’ll be smaller than usual.

*Even though Ceddie’s father is hardly ever seen in any other adaptation, we do see him significantly in the first 5 episodes. In the anime, his name was James Errol. But in everything else he’s known as Captain Cedric. Usually, he’s dead before the story begins. I’m also pretty sure that Ceddie’s father never worked for the newspaper.

*Apparently, The Earl had three sons in total. In the anime, we only know of James (Ceddie’s father) and Bevis. Whatever the case, all three are dead now.

*Dearest Annie! Watching this anime with even the crappiest of subtitles, one thing that I know for sure is that Ceddie never once called his mother “Dearest” like in every other piece of media with this story. I’m actually relieved on that one. Next to men calling their wives “mother”, that is too cringy for my liking. I know Ceddie calls his mother “Dearest” because that’s what his father called her and so Ceddie took over calling her that. In the anime however, Ceddie calls her “mother”. It’s quite possible they gave her the name Annie in this adaptation after the song “Annie Laurie”, the song Ceddie constantly plays on his instrument.

*I really can’t find anything proving that Cocky was a real character in the novel or any other adaptation. And that sucks because I really liked her. Yeah, a lot of memorable characters in the anime were not really there in the actual story. And if they were, they probably didn’t have a name or went by something else. At least I know the dog actually existed.

ENDING: Ceddie might not be the rightful heir to become Earl. It’s not like Ceddie isn’t really The Earl’s grandson. They’re related, there’s no doubt about that. And The Earl loves Ceddie! I mean, he loves his grandson dearly. If Ceddie weren’t around, he’d still be in that mansion, stomping his cane around being a crusty old crone. The reason behind this new turn of events is that he might have a surprise grandson. Let me explain!

Ceddie’s father James had an older brother named Bevis. Bevis might have fucked around with some random lady and they had a son. I think the woman’s name was Minna or something. I don’t know, I’m just gonna call her Lyin’ ass ho. And you know the rules, first sons are the heirs and everyone else is the spare. Not my rule, this shit goes back to Henry VIII times. So, what now? Does Ceddie get cast aside for this illegitimate heir? Does that mean Ceddie can at least live with his mother now? Could this possibly mean that Ceddie and Annie are going to go back to Brooklyn? The Earl was not having this malarchy in his mansion. He threw out this lyin’ ass ho and her son.

The thought occurred with Annie and Ceddie about returning to the states. But all of the people they helped throughout this story pleaded with them not to go. During their time in England, Annie and Ceddie helped the people of the area known as Earl’s Court. Annie would look after the sick and disabled. And Ceddie persuaded his grandfather to rebuild the entire area when it was discovered that everyone there was practically living in squalor. Hell, Ceddie was able to soften his grandfather’s heart and The Earl ended up opening up a bit.

Now comes an ugly ultimatum. Bevis’s so-called ex-wife has been challenging to go to court on the matter of having her son become Little Lord Fauntleroy. But she’s willing to drop it if she lets her son move in and have Ceddie leave the mansion. Yeah, I hate this bitch. Come on anime, we’ve got one episode left. Is this bitch gonna get her comeuppance or what because tick-tock!? Ceddie decides to leave the mansion to prevent being a burden to his grandfather. He decides to stay with his mother and Cocky. Back in the states, Ceddie’s friends and acquaintances have been following this whole story. Mr. Hobbs the storekeeper has been getting frequent letters from Ceddie and the newspaper has been getting stories from across the pond about the development in the alleged new earl case.

Well, time for this shit to be blown up. Ceddie’s NY friend Dick recognized the woman claiming to be Bevis’s ex with his child. Dick and Mr. Hobbs make an unexpected trip to England to straighten out this ugly situation. The evil woman claiming she has the real Lord Fauntleroy is a lyin’ ass ho. Dick’s brother Ben is the real father to this poor kid. So, he’s not related to the lord or Ceddie. Lyin’ ass ho was caught in that web of lies she concocted in front of the lord, Ceddie, her son, the baby-daddy, the servants, all of that. Turns out Lyin’ ass ho was married to Dick’s brother and had a baby with him, but was tired of being poor. So, she ditches both her husband and son to go searching for a sugar daddy. That’s when she met and married Bevis (Ceddie’s uncle). But when their relationship lapsed, she came back to take the child she ditched and went away somewhere the father couldn’t find.

Yeah, this story would make anyone’s blood boil. The Earl was ready to lay down some much-welcomed punishment on this evil woman. But Ceddie pleaded with his grandfather to not be cruel and even went so far as to threaten renouncing his heirdom if he does something cruel to the lyin’ ass ho. That’s the one thing that always annoyed me about Ceddie. This woman did a lot of damage to the people around her. She should not be let off easy. Then again, the only time you’ll see Ceddie lose his temper is if anyone insults his mother. Anyways, The Earl decided to just let her go and she left her son with his father and left without a fuss. So, Ceddie is officially Little Lord Fauntleroy. And even better, his grandfather did something nice for Ceddie. He is finally allowing his mother Annie to live with her son in the mansion and offered a heartfelt apology for his stubbornness.

I guess the characters get a happy ending. Dick’s brother gets to live with his son on a farm somewhere in the states. Dick is working for Mr. Hobbs instead of shining shoes. Ceddie and his mother get to live with each other. And now it’s time for the family to make a trip to New York to visit James’s grave and pay their respects.

This was an okay story. Once again, I like this version than the movie versions I watched. I gotta say, Ceddie was one of the luckier of the children featured in Japan’s World Masterpiece Theater. I know he lost his father at a young age and was separated from his mother shortly after. But you’ve gotta admit he’s luckier compared to other characters like Cosette, Romeo, and Sara Crewe.

A few gripes…Besides the animation, that’s a given. I should save my breath when it comes to all of the early Nippon animations. One of my gripes has to do with the previews. The previews talk about the next episode and when the next episode comes, the stuff they talk about happens at the end. What a cock-tease! The other gripe is that the ending felt very rushed. All the stuff with who was the rightful Little Lord Fauntleroy comes at the very last second. In a 43-episode long series, they save something big like this to the last 3 episodes. And for something as serious as proving paternity, the matter was taken care of rather quickly in the final episode.

Recommendation wise…eh, it’s a toss up for me. I was just okay with it. It wasn’t a favorite of mine and would recommend other animes that came from the same company. I honestly thought it was too cute and wholesome for my liking. It’s weird for me to say that when you see some of my taste in anime, but that’s how I felt. But if you’re curious and have read the book or watched some of the older movies to Little Lord Fauntleroy, give it a watch. But only if you’re able to find the entire series. Like I said before, this series was difficult to find with semi-decent subtitles.

Okay, I’m going to replace Little Lord Fauntleroy with yet another World Masterpiece Theater anime. And funny enough, this anime was the one that replaced Little Lord Fauntleroy after original its run.

Peter Pan!

Oh God. The Little Lord Fauntleroy anime looks like a Makoto Shinkai masterpiece compared to what they did to Peter Pan.

"Only Truth" - Bianca and Romeo duet song translated lyrics

"Only Truth" Bianca and Romeo character duet song from the Romeo's Blue Skies official soundtrack, sung by Romeo (Ai Orikasa) and Bianca (Akemi Okamura)

Translated lyrics after the cut, I edited a DeepL translation with my own knowledge to improve accuracy. There might still be a few errors, but it should be a pretty close translation overall.

“Only Truth” translated lyrics

(Romeo)

In this wide world

I was able to meet you by chance

From that moment on, my heart has always felt

Like it’s filling with sunshine

(Bianca)

Through the same wind,

I walk with you.

I don't know what tomorrow will bring, but . . .

I want to be with you forever.

(Romeo & Bianca)

Only truth, even if we can't say it in words,

We both understand each other’s feelings

Only truth, the one and only truth,

The feeling of being with someone you care about...

(Bianca)

More beautiful than any melody,

Your voice is.

It sounds so kind, it’s a wonder,

I can be honest with you.

(Romeo & Bianca)

Only truth, even if we're far apart

The two of us can see each other

Only truth, sometimes the truth cannot be defeated,

With the one you love and believe in.

(Romeo)

I want to protect you and your smile,

Through the seasons as the sorrow passes by.

(Romeo & Bianca)

Only truth, even if we can't say it in words,

We both understand each other’s feelings

Only truth, the one and only truth,

The feeling of being with someone you care about...

(Romeo & Bianca)

Only truth, even if we're far apart

The two of us can see each other

Only truth, sometimes the truth cannot be defeated,

With the one you love and believe in.
