Zombie-Loan Official Blog Updates - Director and Cast Interview
Zombie-Loan Official Supporters Club, Club Z Blog has been updated.
I've translated the Director's interview and cast interview.(Almost complete)
The final episode and the special episode
Interviewer: The special episode will be included in the last volume of anime DVD. Would you tell us the highlights?
Director: You’ll get to see more characters. It might double the numbers of characters. Members of A-Loan, Hakka, Chitose, and "Anohito”(in English someone you should know) will come back. The casts will be too many to get in the recording studio. (laugh) And, you will see how Bekko does his job as “Watashimori”. It will be the first time that Bekko shows his true color.
Interviewer: People who were watching anime without reading mange will know “Hmm, now I see what kind of character Bekko is.”
Director: Yes, if you watch the very last part of anime, you’d want to know more about Bekko.
Interviewer: Really? If you watch the last episode of anime on TV, you’d definitely love to watch the special episode, is this what you mean?
Director: Please look forward to it.
Interviewer: Wow, I can’t wait for it. We have to look forward to watching episode 11. Lastly, would you give us messages to reader of this blog?
Director: Anime “Zombie-Loan” has finally come to the end. We have prepared tons of entertainment for you in the last episode. We did our best to not to let you get bored. Please don’t miss the final episode.
Cast interview – First part (Second Part will be updated later).
Michiru: Houko Kuwashima
Chika: Kenichi Suzumura
Shito: Takahiro Sakurai
Looking back the recording of Zombie-Loan
Interviewer: Final episode will be aired tomorrow. What would be the main feature of last episode?
Kuwashima: Episode 11 is the climax of “rescue of Shito”. Shito develops a special relationship with the golem who is a pretty girl. What’s going to happen to her?
Suzumura: I think it’s going to be sad to watch. What would be their fate? It will be very interesting and exciting to watch.
And, my birthday will be the next day of the air date, September 12!
Sakurai: Oh, happy birthday!
Suzumura: I will be 33. I’d appreciate if you would remit JPY33,333 to my bank account.
Kuwashima: Is this “bank transfer scam”?
Sakurai: Can we have your bank account info?
Suzumura: My bank account is xxbank, xxbranch…
Kuwashima: He is really telling us his bank info.
Suzumura: I won’t receive anything except “cash”.
Sakurai: We’ve been off the subject. In ep 11, the problem arised in previous ep will be resolved. I can’t tell you the details, but OMG, I never imagined that Michiru would transfer to a gigantic robot!
Suzumura: Yeah, I was so surprised. The last day of Earth will be 65 days later!
Kuwashima: Stop telling lies, guys! Please go on to the next question.(laugh)
Interviewer: Next question. Looking back the recording of Zombie-Loan, would you tell us any impressive episodes?
Suzumura: Hmm, the last day of Earth will be…
Kuwashima: You are still talking about the same subject!(laugh)
Suzumura: Yeah, to tell you the truth, I feel that we’ve finished recording in a moment, it was too short.
Kuwashima: We were a very good team.
Suzumura: Good teamwork and we did our best with our high potential. Our zombie team is forever!
Sakurai: I think my potential was hiding inside me…(laugh)
Interviewer: Any impressive scenes in anime?
Kuwashima: When Chika asks Shito to sleep with him, a lot of animals appeared on the screen. They were so cute. I think people who were watching it would have felt the same.
Suzumura: When you look back the whole episodes from Chika’s side, the first 6 episodes describe Chika. I really did my best to do Chika’s voice. This does not mean I didn’t do my best for the later episodes.
Sakurai: To me, episode 1 was very impressive. I love the brutal atomosphere which episode 1 had. You can’t miss episode 1 to enjoy episode 11, so I would be glad if you watch episode 1 again when DVD comes out.
