Wind Boys! - Ijeong Seomoon kizuna story 1 "Self-introduction”

I’m still trying to get a grasp on the characters! Might change it when I have a better understanding of Ijeong.

TL Note:

Annyeong is a Korean greeting.

He literally says “Let’s do tons of aoharu” at some point. Aoharu is a Japanese term to refer to youth but also carries the meaning of pinnacle of being young, the springtime of life. I turned it into “Let’s bloom lots and lots for our youth!” which is a reference to “bloom of youth”, tracing back to what aoharu means.

Yorotano is a play on yoroshiku, it has been kept as that because I feel like it’s something super unique to Ijeong and should be preserved as is.

Overall he has an unique way of speaking, which I did my best to maintain without it getting too ridiculous.

Ijeong: Annyeong♪ I’m Ijeong. I’m an exchange student that came from Korea!

Ijeong: I’m an idol in Korea but… right now I’m travelling incognito! I’ve said this already but Sensei’s gotta keep shhh, okay!

Ijeong: Eh? About my Japanese? I took lessons back in Korea. It’s totes good, right?

Ijeong: I loved Japan for a long time! Kanazawa’s like full of Japanese culture, it’s awe & some.

Ijeong: I’ve been to Kanazawa’s castle before, it was so hot! And the Kenrokuen garden next door was wonderful too.

Ijeong: Kanazawa is a lovely place, there’s various things I’d like to see. It’d make me happy dappy to go with everyone from concert club♪

Ijeong: Sensei can come along too!

Ijeong: Ah, that’s right! I’m in charge of the horn. I took lessons for my work. I started playing it for a role in a drama♪

Ijeong: I’m giving everything I got for practice together with fellow horn brothers Daisuke and Kojiro!

Ijeong: We’ll become backing demons, please look forward to it☆

Ijeong: Let’s bloom lots and lots for our youth! Sensei, yorotano~♪

Test Strategising after Class

Characters: Notohara Mitsuyuki, Tsuji Reito, Seomoon Ijeong.

Mitsuyuki looks for Reito, hoping to study for tests together, but...?

~ ♪~

Ijeong: Mitsuyuki! …? Why’re you so fidgety, are you looking for someone?

Mitsuyuki: Ijeong-kun! I’m looking for Reito. Since the tests are coming, I was wondering if he’d like to study with… Ah, there he is! Reito!

Reito: Guh, Mitsuyuki…

Mitsuyuki: After I clearly told you to wait for me after class is over… We’ll be having our entrance exams next year too, so it won’t be good if you don’t start studying properly.

Ijeong: Wow! To study together, it really screams ‘youth’, doesn’t it? May I join too?

Reito: Tsk, how troublesome… It’s not like I intended to enroll for entrance exams in the first place, anyway.

Mitsuyuki: Eh! I didn’t hear of this!

Reito: Why do I have to tell you every single little thing?

Mitsuyuki: No way! Although we’d studied together for high school entrance exams…

Ijeong: Mitsuyuki, you poor thing…

Ijeong: In that case let’s all be K-Pop idols together!

Reito: Hah? Why do we gotta be idols? And doesn’t K-pop mean Korea!?

Ijeong: No, no, I mean the new wave, ‘Kanazawa’-Pop!

Mitsuyuki: K-…Kanazawa…Pop……

Reito: You’re gonna go along with him!?

AGF 2019 Interview with Amatsuki, Aramaki Yoshihiko, and Terashima Junta

Amatsuki, Aramaki Yoshihiko, and Terashima Junta were a few of the guests during the Animate Girls Festival 2019 (AGF 2019) held last month, and were there to promote Wind Boys!!

Some new information about the game mechanics, and cast members for some minor characters were announced during their stage segment, but they gave an interview regarding their opinions on the event, the game, wind ensembles, and the concept of youth in general as well, which I’ve translated below.

♪ Interview begins under the cut!

Please tell us about your thoughts regarding the event (AGF 2019). Aramaki: It was fun! Both of my fellow seiyuu as well as the MC, Hirai-san, were friendly and interesting, so I enjoyed myself a lot. Amatsuki: The extent to which people are looking forward to Wind Boys! was conveyed to us today after listening to everyone’s passionate voices in person. To be able to feel everyone’s expectations for this, it was a really fun event. Terashima: Despite the game being only in its pre-registration stages, we could already gather so many people here, and thus we know everyone’s looking forward to the work. There were people there who’ve already found their favourite characters this early on, and I went through the event while thinking it would be nice if we could continue having more fun together with the game content. What do you think are the noteworthy points of the game, and the charms of the characters that you were casted as? Aramaki: Apart from the twenty-six members, I think that the introduction of three new characters this time has resulted in growing anticipation. Atsukage-kun is really a dry character, but behind his coldness does lie some kindness, and he restrains himself in order to have the power of choice over the things he needs. I’d like for everyone to see how he participates in activities with the other members in this game centered around the theme of youth. Amatsuki: Personally, I feel that it’s a work absolutely worth reading. From feeling excitement to sadness, I do think it’s a story that one can enjoy with warmth to the end. Mitsuyuki-kun is very timid a person, but that relates to his kindness, and as a result there’s a part of him that makes him look like a heroine. There’s a part in the story that concerns this, and I’d like to watch over his kindness and growth. Terashima: A wind ensemble’s performance has an uplifting power that makes your heart dance just by listening to it even if you’re down, hasn’t it? In this work, you can enjoy the story of high school students spending the days of their youth in precisely such a wind ensemble, and hence it’s a work that can be enjoyed both by people with and without experience in band. That is the charm of this work. Ijeong-kun is constantly bright, and a moodmaker that can turn the atmosphere into a comical one, but as he was originally an idol participating in activities in a big world, there’s also a part of him that considers things seriously. I do think that such a gap in his character would be an attractive point of his. Who is a character with deep connections to the character you’re acting as? Aramaki: You could either say that he takes to his kouhai from junior high, Kaneko Soshu (CV: Murakami Kouhei), or that he’s overly attached to him, but I think that it’s a good relationship they have. Amatsuki: He has a lot of connections with various characters, and he talks to Ijeong a lot as well. Out of these people, Iizuka Minato (CV: Kobayashi Yuusuke) is a presence that kicked up a typhoon, and having affected (Mitsuyuki-kun), he is a curious presence indeed. Terashima: Ijeong-kun has a flat existence, and doesn’t change his mood no matter who he's with. However, he shows a serious expression in the presence of one particular character. Please share with us your impressions and memories of wind ensemble clubs. Aramaki: I don’t have any band experience, but I have the impression that it is a club that places importance on unity. Everyone’s teamwork is required in order for the different sounds to come together as one harmony, and you can really feel the youthfulness in that. Also, listening to the performance onstage today, I was moved by the thought of how powerful a live performance is. Amatsuki: As a team competition, I feel that the intensity of combined forces is wonderful. I was invited to be a part of the choir when I was in elementary school, but my voice was too high and I was made to sing the girls’ part. I didn’t like that, and I recall not participating in club activities because of that. Today, I have the regrets of not having experienced being in a choir, so I’m glad to be cast in this work (about performing together in a team). Terashima: Back in elementary school, about a third of my classmates were from the concert band. My friends were practicing their wind instruments during recess, and they let me challenge trying the instruments, but it was difficult and I couldn’t make any sound out of them. However, when I tried it after such a long time during the Tour of Kanazawa on-location filming, I made a sound much to my surprise, and it made me regret doing it so seriously. *laughs* If you could play an instrument, which instrument would you play? Aramaki: The trumpet, though I wouldn’t mind playing the clarinet like Atsukage-kun. To perform on an embankment that piece that plays in that Ghibli scene with the flying pigeons, and have my crush walk past and go “Hey, isn’t that Aramaki-kun?”, those’re the sort of youthful days that I’d wanted to have. *laughs* Amatsuki: I’d like to try playing percussion. I’m currently learning the drums, and I realised how important it is to support everyone through the use of rhythm. Terashima: As I’ve previously mentioned, I got to touch the horn for real during the on-location shoot, and I could feel the possibility of making a sound out of it. Since Ijeong-kun’s playing it as well, I’d like to try performing with it too. Do you have any interesting youthful episodes from your high school days? Aramaki: When I participated in the doubles for the tennis club’s competition, I was so nervous that my hands were shaking. Subsequently I missed a serve, and it hit the head of the player I had paired up with. The way his sweat dramatically flung away was just as if it had come right out of a manga panel, and it lighted the atmosphere so much that my nervousness dissipated. *laughs* Amatsuki: I once hit a homerun in baseball that turned the tables and resulted in our victory. We lost the next match, but it was nonetheless a good memory. Terashima: I joined the light music club in the hopes of becoming popular, and successfully formed a band with two guys and two girls in it. We had lots of fun, but I was really sad on the first day when the girls said “No romance within the band because we don’t like conflict.”. *laughs* There was a large variety of merchandise sold at AGF2019. If you were to produce it, what sort of merchandise would you like to make? Aramaki: Instrument maintenance tools that could actually be used by wind ensemble clubs in real life. Amatsuki: The final goal would be music instruments with models by character, wouldn’t it. I’m sure there would be people who join the band because this work sparked an interest in them, so it’d be nice to have such a thing. Terashima: I agree with having something wind ensemble-related that everyone can use. Metronomes with the characters’ design, for instance. Finally, please leave a message to all the fans out there. Aramaki: A lot of information was released this time. With the fact that notable voice actors were cast to voice the new characters, I wonder if everyone’s expectations have gotten even higher than ever before. However, I am certain that Wind Boys! will be a work that can surpass even that. We’ve put in our souls to breathe life into these characters, so I’d be happy if you could run through the days of youth together with the wind ensemble boys. Amatsuki: Besides you all, we actors are also getting excited. Sensing the quality in the project that we’re acting in, we can’t wait for the day that we can show it to everyone. Please wait in excitement for it. Terashima: Charismatic characters were gathered together, and the content can be enjoyed by both those who are experienced band members and those who are not. With the serialisation in the LINE manga, a lot of content will be spread widely, and if this were to spread even more, to the extent that people would say “I joined the band thanks to this work!”, I feel that we actors would see that our hard work has paid off. I’d be really happy if everyone could enjoy themselves with their entire body and soul, I’m counting on you!
