Jack Jeanne Complete Collection - Interview with Terasaki Yuka (Kisa’s Voice Actor) Translation

This short cast interview is from the Jack Jeanne Complete Collection art book!

Ishida: What were your impressions when you first saw the setting of Jack Jeanne?

Terasaki: It’s a story about teenagers putting on plays together that’s drawn by the creator of Tokyo Ghoul, Ishida Sui-sensei. That information alone was all it took for me to be interested. I’m sure a lot of other people thought the same.

Since it’s a story that takes place in a theatre school, I found the way it's like a game meets theatre to be unique. I also found the aspect that the shows are put on by an all male cast to be really intriguing.

—

Ishida: When you were voicing Tachibana Kisa, were there any aspects of your performance that you had to be careful about?

Terasaki: Kisa is a character herself, but she is also the stand in for everyone that’s playing the game. That’s why I stuck to the initial impression of the script as much as possible without adding too much of my own flair. I wanted her to be ‘transparent’ like Quartz.

In the romantic scenes especially, I want the player to have their heart racing over what Kisa’s love interest is saying and focus on them. So during those scenes I made sure to act out Kisa’s emotions more subtly. I’d like for those playing to be able to decide their own colours for Kisa, so I left some of her canvas blank. I remember I would go into the recording sessions keeping that in mind.

—

Ishida: Were there any particular challenges you faced while working on Jack Jeanne?

Terasaki: The singing. When I first listened to the songs with the temporary vocals I was like ‘I’m going to be singing this!?’ and my anxiety quickly turned into terror! I had to reconstruct the way I’d been singing up until then from scratch. It was very difficult and I was unsure about a lot of things, but now thanks to Jack Jeanne I love singing even more than I did before.

—

Ishida: Other than Kisa, are there any other characters that are your favourite or that you took a liking to?

Terasaki: Tachibana Tsuki… He’s Kisa’s older brother, but there’s still a lot of unsolved mysteries surrounding him. I can’t help but be curious about him. I’d love to read a novel or something about Tsuki-nii when he was a student at Univeil. I’d like to see Fumi-san and the other third years when they weren’t upperclassmen too.

—

Ishida: Quartz, Onyx, Rhodonite, Amber. If you were to enrol at Univeil, which class would you like to be assigned to?

Terasaki: The relationships between the seniors and juniors are wonderful in every class, however I think I’d have to pick Quartz. Since I don’t think you can join the other three unless you’re already particularly skilled at singing, dancing or acting. So I’d like to find my own way to express my individuality in Quartz!

—

Ishida: You have some experience with stage acting, so were there any scenes or moments in the game that you could relate to?

Terasaki: Jack Jeanne has a lot of different choices and branches in the story. You can choose different lines to say during the plays too, but no matter which one you choose the show will still reach its conclusion. If another actor changes something then you have to change with them, and if you change something, then they have to change with you. Even though every performance of a show is supposed to have the same programme and script and movements, you go into it with a fresh mind each day and there are slight differences between the shows.

There are things you sometimes only realise on opening day when you see the audience walking in, so I could relate to the sense of tension actually putting on a show brings. I’d love for the players to see how each character's dialogue changes with each option, so please play through the shows multiple times!

—

Ishida: Every show in the game is quite different thematically, which one (setting, musical composition, etc) did you like best? Also, were there any shows that you’d like to try starring in in real life?

Terasaki: All of the shows are very different and I love all of them, but the one that I felt the most accomplished and happily tired after was the autumn performance. During auditions, the selection of lines from it were full of passion and tension, so I remember being excited to record for the autumn performance.

As for which one I’d like to try in real life, it would be Sissia of the Central Nation. When I recorded my lines for the whole show in one session, I started arranging how the stage set would look like in my mind. I’d think ‘this line would definitely be delivered from the top of the set, and this line would be said from the audience to the stage’. I’d read the lines whilst imagining what the show would look like and the performance that I could picture the clearest was Sissia of the Central Nation. So I ended up really wishing I could see it in person.

Oh Rama Havenna, Oh Beloved Havenna~Jack Jeanne English Trans-lyrics

These are my English trans-lyrics for the full version of Oh Rama Havenna, Oh Beloved Havenna from Jack Jeanne. This is by far my favorite song since I really like jazz/swing music. The song also has a lot of word play, symbolism, references, etc.

My lyrics this time are based on the official short English translation, and the translation for the full song done by HanaMitsu- (https://www.reddit.com/r/otomegames/comments/15ty90j/jack_jeanne_for_the_linguists_and_jj_fans_an/).

Download Lyrics

Shining, the street lamps stay Glowing like paintings that Pollock made In our strange party tonight Frustrations? Throw them away

Da-ba-da ba-da-da-ta Like moths to a flame comes these outlaws This party paradigm Is our lowly, lonely, sad, gesselschaft

“Oh, Rama Havenna!”

Now the, zoetrope Clatters as, it falls down Spin round, and around Visions sway, with another round

The pain you feel is a mirage Just pay it no mind The world was rough with you this time Stay, unwind, you’ll be fine Dance up and down, as you know Da-da-bee-doo-dooo Give yourself to night tonight Singing out, “Havenna”

Soon you will fall, for all the traps Artemisia vulgaris, one more glass If you want to act a fool Stańczyk’s a lonely fool too

Ha-ya-pa-ya cha-cha-cha In these sprawling neon alleys, I saw (Showering in absinthe) That here, there, everywhere, God is absent

“Oh, Rama Havenna!”

Like a, ring of smoke We’re spinning, and swirling Until you’re jonesing Listen to, this song on repeat

The pain of this world is hidden Behind smoke and lies Take some psychedelics this time Come, it’s fine, let’s get high No up, just down, as you know Du-du bi ba-ba Sway ‘til the lights go out tonight Dancing for Havenna

Da-ba-da-ba da-da-ta-ra Da-da-ra da-ba-da-ba da-da-ta-ra Cha-cha cha-cha-pa cha-pa-ya Cha-ba-ya cha-cha-cha cha-pa cha-pa-ya

“Oh, Rama Havenna!”

Human, puppets dance All twirling, as they buy A room for the night So their dreams, of heaven don’t die

Tomorrow’s pain is a mirage Act like it’s nothing From the start, the world’s been smelling That mugwort you’re smoking Dance up and down, as you know Da-da-bee-doo-dooo Give yourself to night tonight Singing out, “Havenna”

No up, just down, as you know Du-du bi ba-ba Stay ‘til you overdose tonight Singing out, “Havenna”

---------------------------------------

Notes: I took a few liberties this time since the song's scatting lines are sometimes pointless, other times references, etc. and there's so much symbolism I had to play with things a bit to get most of it in. I am very proud of how I handled the second chorus' "No up, just down" line though! I think it gets the meaning across while sounding very close to "Dance up and down" which is what one of the goals of the original dan-dan-da-la seemed to be.

I made a whole spreadsheet for my niche fandom rare pair 80-chapter-long fanfic to help the approximately 20 people who read it avoid spoilers and content they may not want to see. I think I've hit my peak of 'fanfic nerd bullshit nobody asked for'.
