Q: Please tell us what you felt after reading the script for 'Digimon Adventure tri. Part 4: "Loss"', as well as how you felt during recording, or if there were any scenes that left a deep impression on you.

A: After the painful story of part 3, we've finally arrived in the Digital World! As expected from the title 'Loss', it was a heartbreaking story; I cried several times while reading the script. However, despite that, the childrens' positive comments really helped to lift my spirits.

During an episode that happened during recording...I'm not sure if you can call it an episode? But that morning, Palmon's actress Kinoko-san gave me some of her homemade blueberry jam. I was extremely happy, and it gave me power and energy while I was feeling slightly down from reading the painful script. The jam was absolutely delicious!



Q: Are there any parts of 'Digimon Adventure tri. Part 4: "Loss"' that you especially feel is a must-watch or highly recommended part? (It doesn't matter even if it's a scene you did not take part in)

A: It would be the careful depiction of the Rebooted Digital World, and the meeting between the Digimon and the children; although there are heartbreaking moments as well, it'd be great if you could look forward to the movie. Mimi and Palmon's meeting is my personal favourite. Not only that, during the scene where everyone gets split up, Tentomon! He's so precious! It makes you feel that even though the bonds [between the children and the Digimon] appear to have been lost, they might still have been retained in some way. The script and visuals and scenes that make me feel that way really tug at my heartstrings.



Q: Please leave a message for the Digimon fans looking forward to Part 4.

A: The adventure in the Digital World finally begins in part 4. The rebooted Digimon meet with the children, who have grown since their last encounter, for the first time. I think their last encounter [where the Digimon still remember their partners] is still fresh in the viewers' minds, so it may seem frustrating to watch. However, it makes you think: What are partners? Why are they partners? I think the scenes get more endearing as you watch through the movie. Also, the evolution scenes in this movie are really cool as usual! Please look forward to it!
