If It's True
"If It's True".
If it's true, everyone must have been working hard to create works that give hope to people in this place today as well.
I think it's God who created me now and raised me.
It's God.
"If It's True" is the only and the best Japanese anime.
Even if you have a hard time mentally, you watch anime today and think about how you can do better tomorrow.
I didn't like it at first, but watching anime cheered me up a little and now I can go to school.
When I started watching anime because of Kyoto Animation, I fell in love with it and went down the anime road without thinking about anything else.
The voices of fans reach from all over the world through the internet.
I got off the bus.
I'm thinking of taking it with me at the end of September.
It took me some time to draw it, but this is the illustration I dedicate to my brother and sister- in- law.
After I saw it at the site, when I passed a small bridge with a hexagonal shape, I saw a scenery like an anime and took a picture unexpectedly.
One month after that incident, many people were fascinated by Kyoto Animation's works.
Now, I would like to say what I want to say to creators who create warm stories in their ordinary daily life.
Kyoto Prefecture, Uji City.
Thirty-eight years ago, a small animation production company was born in this area.
Later, with the name "Kyoto Animation",
the anime industry, which was concentrated all over Tokyo,
started sending hits one after another from the region to the world.
"Kyoto Animation" is a company where we, the directors,
don't just think for ourselves, but go beyond our roles
and interpret the characters and situations that each person has in mind.
Creating people is creating works.
It is a way of guiding each person thoroughly.
Each and every one of us is irreplaceable.
The delicate drawings and high expressiveness of "KyoAni"
have been built up by employees improving each other's skills.
The young creators and directors who were essential to the work were sacrificed.
Yasuhiro Takemoto, who was the director representing "KyoAni".
He was involved in the incident when he was on the third floor of the first studio.
"Lucky Star", "Suzumiya Haruhi's Depression", "Evaluation", "Free"…
He directed more than ten films.
I don't think you can work with someone like him.
He's a talented person, isn't he?
Yes, of course.
At first glance, he's a genius.
When there was a sign in front of the theater and "Free" and "Harry Potter" were lined up,
I thought, "Wow, he's amazing."
As Mr. Takemoto's work became a model for the city, fans began to approach it, and the phenomenon of "sacred place pilgrimage" was born.
Mr. Takemoto, who has created works that shake the hearts of those who see them.
After the incident, his wife commented on Mr. Takemoto's wife like this.
All of the works I've made so far...
Everything that the fans who saw them evaluate me...
While experiencing worries and setbacks, he never forgets to laugh.
Takemoto-san may have projected his own way of life onto the characters in the film.
Nisiya Futoshi-san, who has become a character designer who makes up for the story's complexity.
In the 40th Nippon Academy Awards for Best Animation Work, he was the general director of the film "Voice".
It took me the most time to figure out how to portray the protagonist, Shoya.
Nisiya-san's characters are said to be full of delicate emotions.
Fans even say that they are "alive".
Nisiya-san designed the characters for "Voice".
Yoshitoki Oima-san, a manga artist from Gifu Prefecture, produced a feature film in 2016.
Shoya Ishida, the protagonist, and Shoko Nishimiya, who has a hearing impairment, are about bullying, love, fighting with family, and youth with friends who are lost in thought.
Gifu Prefecture's Ogaki City is a model of a city where the main characters of movies live.
Many fans visit this city as a holy place.
Mr. Haradaichi from Kyoto is said to be the sixth holy man on this day.
My original work was a manga series, and Mr. Haradaichi helped me make it into a dimension that is different from ordinary anime and movies.
Also, I think his art is very polite and sincere.
What fascinates Mr. Haradaichi is the beautiful world view that reflects the reality of the scenery into the anime.
This is the place that symbolizes the work.
This is where they meet and part ways.
This is where the story begins and ends.
This is where Shoko, the protagonist, confesses her love for Mr. Nishimiya.
Mr. Nishimiya misheard her love for Mr. Nishimiya as "tsuki," which is quite a symbolic scene.
Mr. Nishimiya met this work and his life changed.
I started watching movies when I was in college.
Then I started studying sign language, and I'm still studying to become a sign language interpreter.
Mr. Nishimiya says that he wants to be of help to people who are visually impaired.
Yes.
The main characters, Shoya and Shoko, reunite in Shua Circle.
In Shua Circle, which is held in the actual place, there has been a change since the release of the film.
The number of people has increased, and children come with their guardians or siblings.
Some college students come from Aichi or Mie Prefecture to see this film.
People with disabilities and people with disabilities learn while using Shua Circle.
I thought it was very nice.
Futoshi Nishiya, who depicted the growth of characters through delicate communication called Shua.
The film continues to move the hearts of many people.
Tsuda Sachie-san, a professional of coloring and finishing paintings.
On that day, he was working as usual on the second floor of the first studio.
He was a veteran of 20 years in the world of animation.
I was able to do what I wanted to do, and I was able to get a job at an animation company that suits me.
Tsuda-san and his brother's encounter with animation was the cause of their childhood illness, says his father, Shinichi-san.
My previous work was terrible, so I don't think I did anything extraordinary.
I just... I just kept looking at my desk.
I drew pictures and animation characters. I guess I drew them well.
He graduated from an animation production specialty school and joined Kyoto Animation.
At the time, he was still working for an animation production subsidiary.
Well, at first I was doing a lot of coloring.
I don't know who told me that my name would come up when I was doing Crayon Shin-chan and Conan.
But I saw that my name would come up at the end of my work.
What did you think at the time?
Well, of course my name would come up.
Well, I was a little happy about it.
I thought my name would come up.
The last time he saw his daughter was two months ago.
The parents' conversation was often about work and Mr. Shinichi didn't know much about his private life.
The next day of the incident, when they visited Mr. Tsuda's room in Kyoto city, a woman they did not know was standing in front of the door.
The woman was Mr. Tsuda's friend and she rushed over, taking care of his safety.
When Mr. Shinichi told her that the situation was difficult, her friend, crying, reached out to Ms. Sachie and wrote fourteen letters in her notebook and handed them over to Mr. Shinichi.
"I think of you as a dear friend.
Even though you were busy with work at this time of year, you ran from Kyoto to Tokyo and listened to me all night.
I know how proud you are of your job as an animator.
I know how much you love KyoAni."
It was the first time I had a friend like that.
Ms. Sachie's last work was "Free," a movie currently in production.
She was in charge of special effects that adjusted the color of the details of the movie.
During the screening of "Free," Ms. Tsuda said...
Ms. Tsuda left the following words...
Each place, each pace leads you straight to your dream.
Please enjoy it at the theater.
Special effect by Tsuda Sachie.
"Anime" "Free"
The novel "High Speed" by Koji Oji, which won the award for the contest hosted by Kyoto Animation, is based on the novel.
A TV version and a movie version are produced.
High school boys swimming club members show their youthful spirit for the national competition.
Tottori Prefecture, Iwami Prefecture, where about 10,000 people live and become models of the city where the protagonists live and jump off rocks.
Kyoto Animation's creators visited this city before making the novel.
They said that they carefully covered this poolside and the scenery of the city.
We covered the city from the top, from the front and from the side.
The scenery was covered from all angles.
The work was done in great detail and meticulously.
"The world of "kyo-wa-ni" was expressed by the delicate use of colors."
Everything is moving.
It's my first time.
Yeah, it's like, 'Ah, the scenery I used to see!'
As TV coverage began in 2013,
fans who watched "free" began to visit the rocky road that became a model,
and last year, the number of tourists climbed to 440,000.
It is the so-called "holy place pilgrimage" of fans.
I was able to see a lot of places that were really used in anime, and I was like, 'Whoa!'
I used to be a swimmer in junior high school, and I came here because I wanted to study swimming.
But it's like, 'Whoa!'
Young people visit small towns facing the Japanese Sea as aging progresses.
Interactions with local residents are also born.
Some people say, 'Someone from the 5th or 6th floor came,'
but if you look at it from the shrine, the scenery is beautiful.
Some people say, 'Your sister is here,'
and say hello.
After the incident, Ms. Mitsunobu Azusa came to the sacred place of Iwami-cho from Tokyo.
I was a little sick and was resting from work,
and then I found out about FREE,
and while I was resting, I had a lot of free time,
so when I saw FREE,
I thought about hope and dreams,
and then I thought about working hard again.
She visited Iwami-cho for the sixth time this time.
Ms. Mitsunobu took a rest from work due to stress two years ago.
Meeting Freee and visiting Iwami made me feel better little by little.
I was saved by both Freee and Tottori.
I think the president gave me a comment, "I'm fighting desperately now. Please wait a little longer."
When I heard that, I said, "Of course I don't want you to overdo it,
but I have a desire to make it, so I want you to wait a few more years."
It's a work made with such strong feelings and feelings, so I think it has a charm that cannot be put into words.
Some of the fans know of the incident and visited the sacred site without hesitation.
Akiho Chiwata, a high school senior who came from Saga Prefecture, is one of them.
Every year, there is a new movie or anime, and every time I see it, I want to go to Iwami where Freee and Tottori are.
Freee's protagonist, Haruka and her friends, say that their growth and their own growth overlap and make them like friends.
Because it's a work that lasts for many years, we feel like we're growing together.
When I became a high school student, Haruka and her friends also became high school students.
And I'm about to go to college, and Haruka and her friends are now first-year college students.
We feel like we're growing together.
I'm happy when I think about whether it will stop.
For fans, positive characters who appear freely are connected by bonds that grow together.
In the anime Tsuda Sachie-san worked on, there is a work that became a local stage for Kyoto Animation.
Sound! Euphonium
A novel series of Ayano Takeda-san, a novelist from Uji-city, was the original work.
A TV version and a movie version were produced.
While struggling with love, entrance exams and club activities,
"youth" of aquascaping members of public schools aiming for national competitions are depicted.
In the work, not only sightseeing spots but also quiet streets appear a lot.
Especially, this bench next to Uji River is where the main character often sits on his way home from school, and because it appears in an impressive scene, fans who visit it will not leave it.
I'm happy because I've been watching it in anime for a long time.
I was looking for it at home and I was happy that it was this bench.
When I was in the aquarium department, there were sad things like "Sound Euphonium" and "Concours" and things that didn't go well with my seniors.
Watching that, I thought that I should do my best with the main character and his friends who are worried and doing good things.
"Sound! Euphonium" has multiple high school models in Uji City.
The models of schools and companies where the main characters go to are "Kyoto Fritz Todo High School" and "Vice Principal at the time" which interviewed creators of Kyoto Animation.
From the top of the hill, I mean just above the ground, you can see Uji City.
Especially in the evening, just before sunset, you can see beautiful Uji City for 20 or 30 minutes.
The subculture of Japan is spreading widely to the world.
Not only in Tokyo, but also in Uji City in Kyoto.
I am also proud of my duty in Uji City.
"Kyoto Fritz Higashi Uji High School" and "the model of the Aquatic Plants Department itself" became models of Uji City in Kyoto.
"Losing to anime protagonists" and "Students practicing hard every day"
The incident happened just before the competition, which is the culmination of club activities.
It was a very personal incident, and I could see it from school.
That's how I found out about it.
It's a school that's getting a lot of attention.
I'm getting more and more conscious about playing so as not to betray my expectations.
There's something I want to do.
But what we can do now is to take what's before us seriously and do our best.
That's how I was able to do it.
The animation in which the colored professional Sachie Tsuda participated encouraged and encouraged many people in this way.
The animation continues to exist even now.
Now, seven years ago, a lot of fans started visiting Gifu Prefecture Takayama City due to a TV broadcast of an anime.
That is "evaluation".
Evaluation is an old school club where the protagonist, Houtarou Oreki, who is cold-hearted about everything, enters.
Along with solving the mysteries lurking in the school with friends, it is a youth mystery work depicting the feelings of the protagonist and heroines in detail.
The man who shoots the river from above the bridge.
He is Ryosuke Ariyama, who used to work for an anime production company.
This is his first visit to Takayama City, the holy land of evaluation.
Hello.
What were you shooting today?
It's the stone bridge where the water is flowing over there.
It's quite an impressive scene. It's something you can't help but notice.
It's a work of harmony in which local people express their ordinary scenery in detail.
It is shown there and fans say they aim for the holy land.
I want to come to this city because I saw it.
I can see what kind of temperature and season it is and what kind of people are there.
I'm looking forward to seeing it in real life.
The shop where the protagonist, Oreki, was invited and consulted by his seniors.
Kissa Hifumi.
It was modeled after a local cafe.
Kisssaco - once upon a time.
Ten or twenty people would hold digital cameras and take pictures of places.
At first I was wondering what they were doing, but I didn't think it would turn out like this.
When the broadcast began, many fans who had seen the evaluation began to visit the shop.
At the time, there were not many people familiar with sacred sites.
Therefore, the shop owner, Watanabe, decided to offer a special day.
It is the day of the Hida-ikibina festival, which appears in the final episode of the evaluation.
On April 3rd, when the festival is held, it is called "evaluation day" in the local area.
The boundary between the world of anime and reality is removed, and kisssaco - once upon a time - becomes the highlight of the evaluation.
I don't think there has ever been a culture like anime, a culture that can be proud of to the world.
I was very happy about that.
It's not just my problem.
The image of Takayama has improved a lot.
At first, I was like, "what kind of picture is he taking?"
But later, it's like, "thank you very much."
The evaluation that fascinates fans with its fantastic colors.
There was a veteran staff member there.
It's Naomi Ishida.
More than 20 years ago, Kyoto Animation has supported him since he was a small subcontractor.
His first job was Doraemon.
The president made him draw a poster.
The president took the Doraemon and went to Tokyo.
And then, he drew a picture that the veteran staff member drew for him and said, "thank you very much."
And he was praised for it.
I'm clearly hearing that now.
In Ishida's room, there are a lot of anime DVDs and games.
After high school graduation, he became a nurse for a while.
But he never gave up on his dream and jumped into the world of anime.
In many popular works, Ishida was in charge of color design and background colors for characters and backgrounds.
His evaluation was one of them.
For example, the color of the characters' eyes is different from that of the four of them, and Mr. Ishida has colored them so that they do not lose their high school spirit and are too ordinary.
It seems that this color sense was passed down from father to son by the craftsmen.
I used to work in a sawmill.
Sawmills use a saw, don't they?
I used to do that kind of work.
That's how I got involved in the industry.
I didn't know that everyone was saying that sawmills are amazing.
I'm proud of my father for doing that kind of work.
Among Mr. Ishida's works, there is an anime that has decided to become popular in Japan.
Haruhi Suzumiya's "Loneliness".
Haruhi Suzumiya, an unhealthy high school girl who is bored with her ordinary daily life, draws the mysterious school life that involves aliens, future people, and superpowers, and has gained the support of many fans.
This work also features a cafe like "Evaluation".
Coffee shop "Dream" in Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
Fans come from all over the country every day.
It is a sacred site where the protagonist Haruhi Suzumiya visited.
However, seven years ago, the predecessor's master passed away and some shops were closed.
My fans told me to get a lot of them.
They told me not to own a house like that.
They told me it's too big and hard to live in.
They told me it's okay even if it's small.
They told me to get a lot of "dreams" and names.
High school life is the center of the story.
The school that became a model was located in Takarai, where you can see west of Miya city.
Mr. Kouki Terada came here by bicycle to visit this school.
I first saw "One Day" about 12 or 13 years ago.
I've kept this work in my mind for a long time.
I watched "Kyoani's Incident" and couldn't stop watching it.
I pulled out an old DVD and watched it.
I felt like I could say anything.
From his home in Shizuoka by Shinkansen,
and now from Shinkobe Station, he loves bicycles and goes to school.
Yes, yes, yes, here it is.
Is this a school scenery?
Although there is mud.
At that time, I had just quit my company.
I had quit my company because I broke my body.
At the time of watching it, I was greatly praised.
Even at night, fans visit the sacred site.
This day, I met a parent and child from Himeji City.
Today changed my life.
It made me want to be an animator in the future.
I think it's good that I have such a good goal.
I will do my best to make my dream come true.
Naomi Ishida expressed the scenery that remains in people's hearts with fine colors.
I want to say thank you to my parents and my parents-in-law.
I want to say thank you to everyone.
Asagaya in Suginami Ward, Tokyo.
An anime studio has been established, and young people who want to become animators are gathering from all over the country.
One of them is Masato Ohta, who came from Okinawa.
This is his second year as an animator.
There are people who design colors for us,
and they tell us which color of shadows we should use.
They tell us which highlights of our hair should be white or green.
Ohta was influenced by Suzumiya Haruhi's melancholy and low voice in "Kyo-wa-ni", when he was a student.
Even in the anime industry in Tokyo, we are stimulated by it.
However, "Kyo-wa-ni" is said to be of high quality.
The pose I do when I fly is a little stylish and energetic.
Or when I fly like this, I try to fly with a strong feeling.
As a character's movement, each of us has a personality like that.
The passion for that cut is amazing as a professional.
I want to believe in the power of anime,
because it is now that fans, creators and everyone is hurt.
As one who aims for the future, I have such passionate feelings.
What I can do is small and I don't have much power,
but I've been encouraged and cheered up by KyoAni's anime,
so I hope I can do something in return for KyoAni and the anime industry by making works.
Here, too, there are young people who believe in the power of anime and work hard every day to become professionals.
How many works can you draw?
I can only draw about fifty so far, but if I draw all of them, I think I can draw about three hundred.
Now, while working part-time, she also took the Kyoto Animation acceptance exam.
When I applied for this job for the first time, I felt that I wasn't good enough for this position.
I felt like I was on top of the world.
Tapioca-san's first anime.
It's a simple movement, but the results of practice are starting to come out little by little.
It was very difficult to balance, and when I tried to move it, it would collapse, so I redrew it many times.
From Kyoto Furitsu Todo High School.
It seems that the school, which became a model for "Sound! Euphonium", has at least affected its depth.
I didn't think the classroom I was in would become animation, so I felt like I was traveling around the world every day just by studying.
So sometimes it's exciting and dreamy for characters to have such a special experience in a place where they can't actually experience it in animation.
Right now, I want to be an animator.
I want to share with people the emotions I felt in Kyoto Ani's sacred ground.
I like happy endings that make you feel like you're in a dream and make you feel like you're glad you saw it.
I hope I can draw those kinds of things.
Kyoto Ani's Sacred Ground
Young people who have worked hard and dreamed of joining Kyoto Ani's sacred ground.
One of them is Mr. Ono Megum, who joined Kyoto Ani last year.
Mr. Ono's illustrations are drawn with gentle and delicate colors and quick touches.
They are full of youthful energy, rich in facial expressions, and lively.
I had a dream of working for an anime company.
I worked hard and said, "I'm working now."
I was very impressed by his happy face and the way he reported me.
He was very friendly and always spoke to me in a cheerful manner.
Since then, I've always liked anime.
He said, "Do you know this anime?"
Ono's page for elementary school graduates.
My favorite words are "anime," "dream," "dream of the future," "manga artist," "piano teacher," and "art teacher."
Manga artist, piano teacher.
I watch manga and anime because I want to be able to draw like him.
In his fourth year of elementary school, a man who was a teacher showed him a sketchbook or something like that under Mr. Ohno's special direction.
He's a sketchbook or something like that.
He practices a tremendous number of things.
It said in the sketchbook that you should work hard with a goal in mind.
I heard that he went to a specialized school and worked hard at his part-time job to achieve that goal.
Another person is Yuka Kasama, who graduated from university this spring and joined Kyoto Animation.
Professor Itoso, who taught graduation policy at university, remembers Kasama's hard work.
Mr. Kasama used to sit here and work a lot.
I think he was putting together works for Kyoto Animation.
She likes overreacting pictures and anime-specific compositions.
I thought she was an excellent animator.
A month before the incident, a message from Mr. Kasama entered Professor Itoso's smartphone.
The cut that Mr. Kasama was in charge of was visualized for the first time, so I wanted to report it somehow.
This two-cut! Thank you very much!
Mr. Kasama, who was always cheerful and a mood maker,
summarized his appearance in graduation work activities in an anime work for about four minutes.
A company's group interview.
While both sides of the student appeal their experience of overseas travel and their language skills,
the main character, who is about to lose herself in the interview,
is reminded of dreams and hopes she had when she was young.
[Music]
Climbing up a large wall with all her might, there will always be light ahead of her.
This was Kasama's message to KyoAni Works.
Even in France, KyoAni works were highly regarded for their meticulousness of drawing, and even anime experts praised them.
KyoAni Works
This issue, which was released in 2017, and the article on Kyoto Animation were here, with first of all the counter-translation of our visit.
Anime expert and reporter of Koyote, Machu Binon said that when he visited KyoAni the next day, he understood why excellent works were born.
There was really an atmosphere where everyone talked with everyone, really a camaraderie, no matter the position, which was not exclusive but quite unique in Kyoto Animation.
We really had a fairly familiar atmosphere, I think.
Jonathan Geta, who majors in video at the university.
It's Miyo, Akiyama, Tsumugi Kotobuki, Ritchie Tainaka, Asusa Nakano and Yui Irasawa.
Mr. Geta said that he became a video artist by watching anime like Keion.
KyoAni Works, which gave light to his future, is calling for more people to watch it on social media.
One month has passed since that day.
Today, many people have gathered again.
This place is filled with prayers for the redeemed.
Thank you for all the wonderful works you've made for me.
I'm praying for your recovery.
That's why we're here.
I think it's important for me to keep thinking about it.
As a fan, I want to see the next work and the next anime.
Why?
Why did this happen?
No matter how hard you think about it, you can't find the answer.
There's no way you can find it.
She loved beautiful scenery and people.
She continued to make gentle stories by layering delicate colors.
I just want to pray for them now and forever.
