Tomokazu Sugita (as Hans Axel von Felsen)
-How do you feel after recording episodes 3 and 4?
The recording made me want to eat plain Calorie Mate. It is indeed a balanced nutritional food that made the "legendary hero" say, "It's too good! I was very impressed with the balanced nutritional food that made the "legendary hero" say, "It's too good! I love FROGMAN's work and have been a regular viewer of the "Channel 5.5" series, so I was really looking forward to today's recording. This time I was asked to play the role of Felsen, but since I cannot become an aristocrat right away, I have been studying Takarazuka Revue videos to get into the form first.
-So I started by watching Takarazuka Revue videos and studying them.
No, it was "Ace Attorney. But I found it very interesting and informative. I have the impression that Takarazuka is very friendly to anime and video games, as they have also done "Sengoku Basara" and "Lupin the Third".
Speaking of Takarazuka, Ryoufu-san, who is playing the role of Oskar this time, was the top star of Takarazuka.
Of course, Ryoufu-san is the "real" Oskar at Takarazuka, but I personally have a strong impression of him from "Rurouni Kenshin". I have never met him in person, but we fought together in a game in a certain boys' magazine.
-What is your impression of the original "The Rose of Versailles"?
Along with "Fist of the North Star," I think it is a masterpiece that has influenced various contemporary anime. I think the production of the characteristic emotional expression is considerably influenced by "The Rose of Versailles". I am also grateful for this work because I have survived karaoke occasions where I did not want to go, but had to, by singing "Roses Fall Beautifully" in a very low voice.
-What are the highlights of FROGMAN's parody version of "The Rose of Versailles"?
I think the charm of the parody is that it is able to turn negative feelings into positive ones. I hope you enjoy the script by director FROGMAN, who has such amazing power.
-Lastly, a message to the fans who are looking forward to this episode!
This film will be released on December 24th, and I have made it a rule to watch "Mobile Suit Gundam 0080" every Christmas, but this year I am going to laugh my sinking heart out with "Izakaya no Bara" because of that. Too much of anything in life is not good, so I hope everyone will enjoy a "well-balanced" Christmas by watching this work.

-Did you notice any changes or reactions after appearing on "Channel 5.5"?
I have become more sensitive to the word "Calorie Mate". After the previous episode, I was very hungry on another set, and when I said to my colleague Shiina Natsukawa, "I'm hungry," she gave me a Calorie Mate. She gave me a calorie mate. She is still a student, but she often eats Calorie Mate while studying, and we had a good time talking about Calorie Mate from our school days. The one he got at the time was maple flavor, so I made sure to promote the newly released plain one (laughs).
-Have you seen the first episode that was released?
Of course I did! I couldn't help but laugh at the suddenness of it all, from the sudden appearance of the marimo to the sudden promotion of Calorie Mate. I remember how much fun I had playing the role of Oskar with such panache. Also, Ryoufu-san, who played the role of Oskar, was very dignified and lovely. ...... I was also shocked by the ending, "Only for Marimo, Lake Akan! The ending with "Only for marimo, Lake Akan!
-What are the highlights of episodes 3 and 4?
The highlight of episode 3 is the scene where Marie is close-up with the "flower" on her back in the background. This is a familiar scene in the original story, but this time, actual flowers are used, so the waiter has to clean up each time... (laughs). I can't tell you more about episode 4 yet, but I was impressed by Marie's innocent troublemaking. I can't tell you more about episode 4 yet, but I can say that Marie's innocent troublemaking ways are impressive! Also, Marie was in charge of "advertising" in both episodes 3 and 4, so I was especially nervous when she was explaining about Calorie Mate, saying "I have to say it right! I was especially nervous during the scene where she explains about Calorie Mate. I would be happy if you could pay attention to such scenes.
