The TV anime "Tejinsei Senpai" (Senpai for Tejutsu), which is full of speedy and naughty gags, had its first and third episodes screened at the advance screening. Episode 3, Report on the Advance Screening of "Tejin Senpai".

On Saturday, June 29, 2019, an advance screening of the TV anime "Tejin Senpai" episodes 1-3, which will air from July 2, was held at the Tokyo Gekijo. The screening was held at the Tokyo Theater on Saturday, June 29, 2019.

Tejitsu Senpai" is based on a manga written by Azu, which is serialized in Kodansha's "Young Magazine". The director is Usu, who worked as an assistant director on "Koi to Uso" and "Udon no Kuni no Kinrin Kemari" and as a series director on "Love Live! and the series director of "Love Live! The animation was produced by Raiden Film.

This is a gag anime that takes place in a high school magic club. A senior who loves magic tricks but has a "failure rate of 100%! The club is run by a "senior" who loves magic tricks but has a "100% failure rate" due to his agoraphobia. The new students are forced to join the club and are treated as "assistants." The club also involves "Saki" and "Mar-kun," the sister and brother street performers, "Ikara-san" from the chemistry club, and "O-sis," who is the assistant homeroom teacher as well as her own sister!

This time, episodes 1 through 3 were screened prior to the main broadcast. Afterwards, the cast members, Kaede Hondo (playing the senior), Aoi Ichikawa (playing the assistant), Eri Kitamura (playing Saki), Riyo Takahashi (playing Ikara), and Himika Akaneya (playing Sis), took the stage to talk about their impressions of the show and the recording sessions.

Kaede Hondo, the lead actress, opened the event by saying, "Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the world of magic! as she greeted the audience, just like in the original film. The talk started off with her impression of the main heroine, "Senpai". Kaede Motofu said, "When I read the original story, I thought it was a little bit dirty and inexcusable, but I was surprised when I heard the director's decision to give her a role! But the director's direction told me that "Senpai's sexual knowledge is at the level of a little girl" (laughs). (Laughs.) But when I played the role, I found out that she had no ill intentions, and that is part of her charm.

As Kaede Hondo said, "The development of the story is made possible by the assistant-kun's quick wit," and the fast-paced dialogue in this work is entertaining. Nichika Akaneya said, "The tempo of the senior assistant was so good that I enjoyed it as a viewer in the recording booth as well! and Eri Kitamura praised their power and speed, saying, "And it was like they were going full power and giving each other endless lariats.

Aoi Ichikawa, who plays the role of the assistant, also beamed, saying, "The character can't let go of his senpai even though he finds him troublesome. But the assistant also has an ulterior motive, just like a high school boy. Yota Tsuruoka, the sound director, told me, 'The assistant is a hentai,' and that's why I'm playing the role.

Riie Takahashi spoke for the message conveyed by the director, saying, "Rather than depicting the inner lives of the characters and watching them grow, this work is about delivering the same everyday life in a safe and secure environment. In addition, while some of the characters had not appeared in the previous three episodes, Eri Kitamura's "Saki," and Riyo Takahashi's "Ikara-san" were introduced, and they performed "one word dubbing" ahead of the rest of the audience. They drew cheers from the audience.

Kaede Hondo commented, "The images are carefully drawn, but sometimes they are suddenly deformed, which makes them lovable. When the talk turned to the theme song, Akaneya Himatsu, a member of i☆Ris, who sings the opening theme song, said, "For an i☆Ris tie-up song, it is unusually close to the work, and the music video also shows respect for the song.

Afterwards, there was a mini-game corner with a penalty game at stake. Counting Senpai!" which was introduced in the original three volumes. The rules of the game were that one person had to repeat the number up to 3 at a time, and the person who said "60" lost the game. Kaede Hondana and Aoi Ichikawa tried it out first. The winner was the one who said "21," but Kaede made an ordinary mistake and gave up the victory, causing the audience to blush. The audience laughed and praised her good fight.

The five cast members also used the "60" rule. As the numbers were piled up in tempo just like in the anime, Kaede Hondari lost again, and a penalty game was decided. When it was revealed that the punishment would be a video recording of her moving the "Spring Animal," a stuffed animal used in the show for magic tricks, which would be distributed later on the show's official Twitter page, Kaede Hondo made a bitter face and said, "It's a public execution...! Kaede Hondo said bitterly, "It's a public execution...!

Looking at the staff book by Raidenfilm, which was sold at the event, she concluded her speech with a message to the audience. Aoi Ichikawa, while using words related to each character, reiterated, "We will continue to get more excited after the third episode, so please continue to support us! He also emphasized again, "We are going to be excited about episodes 3 and onward, so please continue to support us!

Tejin Senpai" will begin airing on TOKYO MX, MBS, BS-Nittele, and AT-X starting July 2, 2019. It will also be distributed on various video sites such as GYAO! The opening theme is "FANTASTIC ILLUSION" by i☆Ris and the ending theme is "Damehadame" by Minori Suzuki.

The development created by the speedy gag animation was a time that elicited unintentional laughter from the audience. The advance screening closed with warm applause.
