[Animemashite] Kawanishi Kengo cross interview extras

“When I thought that I wanted to be a seiyuu, I was all over the place, but, if we were to put it in sentai terms I used to think ‘ahh, I’d wanna always just play the red ranger’, but – how do I say this? I have some experience there, but if I had to pick I think my [personality] is more suited for an antagonist or a rival –”

Happy birthday, Kawanishi Kengo! This is an English-translated transcript of the extra video of his cross interview for the March 6, 2017 episode of Animemashite!

You can see their original answers for the interview here!

Legend:

Interviewee: Kawanishi Kengo (K)

Interviewer: Kousaka Atsushi (A)

A movie/book/manga you recommend | The book “空の境界(The Garden of Sinners)”, the movie “シン・ゴジラ (Godzilla: Resurgence)”

K: If we're gonna go back to the start, [TYPE MOON’s] Kara no Kyoukai, I really...I don't know how many times I read it.

A: What about it did you like?

K: I freakin' like chuunibyou series. The settings are simple enough, and they can see when things die and stuff, and I used to think, can I do that?

A: *laughs* You were aiming to someday do that!?

K: There's when someone uses glasses to block out the things they can "see", only to see 'em again when they take the glasses off -- I tried doing that but it's EM-BA-RASS-ING!!

Both: *laughs*

A: ...and the movie "Shin Godzilla".

K: Shin Godzilla. I saw it recently, uh, it was interesting. But you know, I don't really watch Godzilla movies.

A: Oh?

K: Yeah yeah - I know stuff like "Mothra is like this" and "Mega Godzilla is like that", but this time...the director on Shin Godzilla, was Director Anno...and I've always liked Eva from way way back, so I wondered "how would this go?" And I guess - music and other things played a part in it too, but I REALLY loved the story, and for the first time I ended up thinking "Godzilla's SCARY!!" I guess? Back then - I don't think I've ever seen Godzilla and thought it was scary-

A: That's right,

K: But this time's Shin Godzilla...when I saw it, somehow...

A: In terms of which age bracket they're targeting, it feels like they're focused on the older viewers, aren't they.

K: It had a very scary image, and after that - how do I say this - there seemed to be a moral story kind of thing that I felt at the very end.

A thing you’re hooked on lately (your hobbies, etc.) | Monster Strike (aka MonSuto)

A: Isn't this because you're starring in it?

K: NO!! Nonono NOO!!

A: Haha, is this advertising?

K: NO no no it's not advertising!!

A: Ehh, really?

K: No no no!

A: No?

K: No no no. It's cuz - I'd been playing MonSuto since its app was released, and I'd allllllllllllways played it, and so when I was told I should go to the auditions for the anime version of it, I thought "ehh really??" and gave it a shot, and got to star in the anime...and from then on I guesssssss...uhh...my ingame spending started increasing.

A: Haha-- because you have money now?

K: Stop, stop talking,

A: You have lots more money now?

K: Well I'd been spending on it before - but now that I'm part of it I feel closer to it – I just keep going.

A: Were you happy when you won the audition?

K: I was happy, first and foremost. Getting to be a part of something you like – I think that made me very happy.

Describe yourself in one phrase. | a lazy perfectionist

K: That’s right...I’m blood type A, you know.

A: Huh.

K: I think there’s quite a lot of blood type As who are perfectionists. Somehow, like clockwork...uhh, I clean my room everyday.

A: Ehh? Everyday!?

K: Everyday.

A: Whoa. You sweep?

K: No. Well, you see, when you sweep the dust just goes flying, so I just go at the flooring with a damp rag, go at the TV stand too, and when everything’s all spotless, I go take a bath.

A: We can’t live together...

K: HAHAHAHAHA!!!

K: Yup. Well. The places that get seen, I keep those clean.

A: Ah. You wrote down, “the inside of my closet is actually chaos”...

K: Yes. Somehow we get lots of those, those, the series – the DVDs of the series we star in. That’s the chaos.

A: Have you never thought about tidying those up?

K: Nope. Because no one gets to see it anyway.

A: But if you open the door wouldn’t you see it then?

K: *opens the door*

K: *nods* Mhm.

K: *closes the door*

A: You’re running from it??? –that’s the lazy part of you, then?

K: Yes yes yes. Exactly.

Something that makes you glad you’re a seiyuu? |I can get into productions related to my favorite games.

K: Uh...well, for example, MonSuto, but also...I guess, it’s that games – in general, the things I like, I’ve made a job out of them. Stuff like that – well, not just with games, though, app games too, right? The things I love the most, they’ve become my work, and I think that’s a thing that makes me think I’m glad I became a seiyuu.

A: I see...

Anime character you fell in love with? | I don’t have any.

A: ...you got one, right?

K: NO, NOPE!

A: YOU GOT ONE, RIGHT???

K: ‘CUZ!!! It’s 2D!!!

A: You CAN!

K: You can’t touch ‘em!

A: You ca—ISN’T THAT FINE??

K: EHH???

Both: *laughs*

A: *in Kansaiben* Isn’t that fine??

K: Ahaha...what’s wrong, what’s wrong, are you ok,

A: *laughs*

...

A: Okay if you can’t think of anyone you fell in love with. Was there anyone who made your heart skip a bit when you looked at ‘em.

K: Aaaaaaaah...but...that’s right...during the time, I was in...middle school I think? From middle school to high school, I think. The series called Cyber Team in Akihabara.

A: Ah! Nostalgic.

K: Yes yes yes. That one was, uh, when I first saw it, it made me think “huh, isn’t this just like school life?” and was what got me into liking anime. When I saw it, I was like - *faces the camera* - this is gonna be a gross story, okay – I was in my teens when I watched this. And it got a movie, Cyber Team in Akihabara.

A: Yes it did.

K: When that happened, the girls were in the middle school age range. And I am - *whispering to himself, softly* ah, in my thirties... *back to normal voice* Something like that.

A: *hangs his head and laughs*

What kind of seiyuu do you want to be in the future?

A: “I’ve always been doing lead roles, but I want to be a seiyuu who plays a rival character.”

K: That’s right. When I thought that I wanted to be a seiyuu, I was all over the place, but, if we were to put it in sentai terms I used to think “ahh, I’d wanna always just play the red ranger”, but – how do I say this? I have some experience there, but if I had to pick I think my [personality] is more suited for an antagonist or a rival –

A: I don’t think so though?

K: No no no no.

A: No no.

K: Somehow, that seems easier for me to do!

Both: *laugh*

A: ...to act out, huh?

K: Yes! Easier! Well of course, there’s also cool protagonists?

A: They exist.

K: They exist, but...there are more stories with hot-blooded heroes, so the chances for me to be dispatched to [audition as] one of them would be higher, won’t it?

A: Right. As some high-tension character, right.

K: Yes yes yes. So rather than that, I guess I’d rather be the type of rival character who would match that kind of protagonist, and story-wise it seems like the best part to play. But would there be a chance like that? I wonder. That’s why if I ever got that kind [of character], I think it’ll be nice.

A: Such a quiet character would be closer to your own personality, and it’d be easier for you to do.

K: Yes. I think it’d be easier.

A: Is that so. Alright.

Episode #140: Kousaka Atsushi’s impression of Kawanishi Kengo

That’s right...well, huh, so far I’ve noticed he matches up with the image of him I have in my head. Ehh...so regarding how I think of Kawanishi-kun, I think...that nothing has changed at all, I guess.

(In the background, Kawanishi stands up and goes offscreen to take a phone call.)

Hmm...stuff to add to that...uhh, within his true feelings – no, not ‘true feelings’, inside his heart, I thought, wouldn’t there be lots of weird stuff deep down? But...just as his emotions play on his face, mm. Somehow. He says what he thinks, and that doesn’t change. And I think. It really felt like I was remembering my student days. I really had fun. Yes.

*a beat, addresses the cameraman*

Won’t you stop [recording] there?

(Staff-san laughs offscreen. Kawanishi returns, still on his phone.)

*laughs* So you won’t. Huh. Well...that’s right. Kawanishi-kun said he doesn’t have much friends, so I think I should go and invite him out to eat or something.

(Offscreen, Kawanishi uses his phone to take a picture of Kousaka from behind.)

Yes. Ehh...that’s it.

(Staff-san laughs. Kousaka chuckles. Kawanishi takes another picture.)

Mou, what about that was harsh!? *laughs* Well, I don’t have much friends either, so I think I’d wanna get along with him more. Ehh.

Everyone, did you have fun today? Thank you very much.

CHICKEN AND COLESLAW SANDWICH RECIPE

In olden days the bread part of a sandwich was merely used for transporting what was inside. Cavemen would receive their subs (via dinosaur) and scoop out the filling (not with a scoop but with their hands) and discard said bread. Thus being the origin of the paleo religion AKA caveman diet. “No bread, I’ll just have the filling please” #nocarbs. Discarded bread jackets (or brackets) were swept from the cave floor at 7am every morning and lobbied towards “firewood” to keep everybody in the cave nice and toasty. Which, coincidentally, is where the phrase “toasty” actually comes from. Toasty as in toast. As in they’d burn the bread jackets on the fire, inadvertently creating toast, which led to toast becoming the first kind of bread that was ever eaten by human. Partly because it smelled so nice and toasty when it was on the fire! And partly because a bit fell out and people were like dogs back then. Haha!

If you’re still not getting it. Bread, for a time, was used in the same way that pork pie pastry, for a time, was merely the suitcase for the meat compact inside. Shell discarded, much like that of the nut. The much maligned jelly of today worked functionally back then as a grout, or wadding, to stop the compact rattling in transit. On horseback, presumably. Pre-jelly it was horrific. That dull meat rattle of un-stabalised meat weight inside cold pastry walls. It was the Victorian equivalent of fingernails on a blackboard. Though at the other end of the spectrum, sonically.

Nowadays we eat the whole sandwich, bread included. And that’s what this recipe is a celebration of. Bread, for a long time now, has come in so many different forms. White, brown, mixed seed. I could go on. Seeded batch, mixed grain, 50/50. I could go on.

I picked up a Sainsbury’s Taste The Difference “Stonebaked White Baton” for 70p. It’s what you might call a demi-baguette. Or what an idiot might call a semi-baguette. I just called it a semi-baguette in my head before I wrote that. Demi-lol. The thing that stuck in my head was there was two in the chamber at Sainsbury’s and I’m looking at it and I’m thinking, hang on, that one there, on the right, is at least a couple of inches longer than the one on the left and I’m looking at it and I’m thinking, hang on, they’re both 70p. Kinda wanted to wait for another customer to saddle up to the “bakery section” so I could say, heh, have you seen this. And then they’d look at me blankly and take the longer baguette. Or they’d say, well that one on the left is a bit wider so it’s works out the same really bread-for-bread. People, even imaginary ones, are really annoying when they just don’t get “it".

But what I’m saying is, you can use ANY bread for the recipe. But please do eat it and don’t throw it away. Or do! Let’s get into it.

RECIPE

1 x Bread, at least two sheets or one sliceable form. Could be seeded batch, white, brown etc. Make sure it’s enough to make a sandwich. 1 x Leftover roast chicken, fork from tub 1 x Leftover half full coleslaw, fork from tub 1 x Butter, too hard from fridge 1 x Red’s Kansas City BBQ Sauce

I semi’d my demi. One half for now, one for later. Go all in with the full Subway-esque stretch if you’re looking to up your white bread cells. Part the baguette horizontally down the full length. I went all the way through, but you could leave a bit intact at the edge if you prefer a “paperback” style filling method i.e. a sandwich with a spine.

The butter, once taken from the fridge, was too hard and I knew it would be so I just put it back in the fridge. If your fridge is anything like mine then you may wish to do the same. Subway don’t use butter and not that this sandwich is supposed to be like Subway, nor am I holding them up as a sandwich beacon but when it comes to sandwiches it kind of is their bread and butt…er, bread.

Apply a liberal smear campaign of coleslaw to your base bread jacket. This will be your foundation on which to build. Dip your finger in it at this point and give it a little taste. Too spicy? Throw a little yoghurt in there.

You want to open your tupperware tub of leftover roast chicken scrags at this point. Fish around in it with a fork looking to avoid any weird looking bits. Airlift the pure forms onto your coleslaw bed. I went for a bit of a mound as my tub was plentiful. I don’t know what your tub looks like but I’m going to say you want at least 120g on there. I also moved the tub closer to the bread to avoid dropping chicken on the work surface. Didn’t fucking work though did it.

Grab your nearest condiment at this point. I reached for a disappointing bottle of Red’s Kansas City BBQ Sauce. Disappointing because, a) it’s bland b) it’s affiliated to a restaurant I’ve never been to, nor have I any interest of ever going to c) it’s from Co-Op and I can vividly remember half-heartedly purchasing it when they didn’t have anything better

I attempted to put down some lattice work with the sauce. A sashayed one-take lazy flair kinda move. I recommend it.

Blitz it at this stage with salt and pepper. Chicken literally does not taste of anything unless it has salt on.

Last thing you have to do is put the lid on. Boosh. Squash it down a bit. Go on. Some of the filling will fall out onto the plate but I don’t mind. You can pick that up later. Though you might want to take a tea towel over to the sofa with you so you can mop your mitts a little halfway as it’s a lil slippery.

—

Verdict: Bland. Tasted of nothing despite the seasoning and sauce. That stupid sauce is so voiceless I kind of want to squirt the full contents out of the window. I could offer that the thick application of coleslaw muted the accent of those additions. Could have got up to add more salt and pepper after a couple of bites but I wasn’t arsed for moving tbh. So sue me. The roast chicken was in fact an 8-hour slow cooked (in a slow cooker) chicken that I was told in recipes would amplify the taste of the chicken and make for one almightily tasty bird. I finished it in the oven too to crisp up the skin. Still didn’t taste of shit. I put a lemon up its arse from the off too, and three garlic cloves. I saltbae’d some seasoning and paprika on it. Nothing.

Try it at home and let us know how you get on!
