The stage for the big hit thank-you speech was held at United Cinemas Toyosu in Tokyo on Saturday, July 15, with Tetsuya Kakihara (playing Koji Kamihama), Tomoaki Maeno (playing Hiro Hayami), Toshiki Masuda (playing Kazuki Nishina), and other three cast members who played the main character "Over The Rainbow" (=Obare). The official report has arrived.
Official Report
The event was attended by Kimpuri fans, who had to beat the odds to get in, and they shared their joy of success with Kakihara, Maeno, and Masuda. There were several fans who had already seen the show more than 30 times, and as soon as they heard about it, they were all like, "Wow! Wow! and "Wow!
Kakihara said, "I am happy to be able to get together not only with the people at this venue but also with many people from all over Japan. There are people who have gone to see the show many times, and I can feel their love," Kakihara expressed her joy.
He also shared a secret story about "pride" sung by Hiro Hayami, played by Maeno, in the final of the Prism King Cup.
Maeno: It was difficult. I sang it in a breezy way like Hiro, but Director Hishida told me to be more melancholy. I thought the song would look better if it had a sticky feel, which is the complete opposite of what I was going for. I thought the song was already completed since it appeared in the previous album, but after re-recording it this time, I realized that this was the complete song. I think it was thanks to the two of them, so I would like to sing the Obare version of "pride" with the three of us.
■About the new song "Nijiiro CROWN" that appears in this work
Kakihara: I really like this refreshing song. The fact that the three of us sing this song together at the end of the movie makes me think that the happy ending will strengthen our bond.
Maeno: It is very easy to get into the song with the three of us, and I was able to get into this song right away because the melody and lyrics match each other. Even though the three of us were recording separately, I could imagine what the song would be like, so it was as if we were recording it together. It's a strange thing.
Masuda: I think the result is beyond my imagination. I never thought that Kazuki would say, "Preprism! I didn't expect Kazuki to say that (laughs). This is the fear, awesomeness, and sparkle of Kimpuri! I guess this is what they were trying to achieve with this song.
■Finally, a word to the fans!
Masuda: Enjoy it intuitively! Even if you don't know what it means, it's an interesting piece. As for Kazuki, I would like to continue the prism show by enjoying it in a free and burning way.
Maeno: If you are watching this film at the supporting screening, I hope you will pay attention to the prism recording. As someone who has been working on the show since "Pretty Rhythm Rainbow Live," that scene is very emotional for me. When you are chanting in the theater, please think of our characters' feelings and enjoy the show!
Kakihara: This work started with the TV series "Pretty Rhythm Rainbow Live". The three members of Over The Rainbow grew up thanks to the girls in that series. No matter how big a hit Kimpuri becomes, I don't want those girls to be forgotten. I hope that there will be a place in the future where we can perform with them in some way, or express our lives after each other.
