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 I was confirmed to appear in Digimon Adventure [tri.], looking at the illustration on the large poster gave me this certain feeling - and it feels like the series has finally come to the point where the atmosphere is right, where I can act out what I felt. Since it is a multi-part series shown in cinemas, I can feel that they wanted to make an impact from the very start. Not only that, by going for [that impact] from the very start, I felt that it was all to... should I say concentrate, or build up to what will come after [this movie]. Looking back, we got a bit worked up on hoping and trying to get people to accept how the characters will be getting different voices, but I personally think we've moved to the stage where not only are we getting closer to the characters, but also the stage where we can feel [the change in voices] wasn't necessarily a bad thing, and that the story itself is progressing.



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: I think the entire movie is worth watching, but... if I had to pick a scene, it'd be where Taichi and Yamato attempt to make Sora open up and go back to her normal self. It gives the feeling of 'girls are always growing, such that they leave the boys in the dust...'. It's hard to describe, but I liked the scene.



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

A: This movie weaves a tale where both the children and Digimon continue to move forward, despite all the loneliness and sadness. Digimon Adventure tri. is not over yet, so please look forward to what the series has in store for the future!
