Here's what the interview was:
Q: First of all, please share with the fans how Ultraman Cyro is celebrating its 10th anniversary
A: From my role in Super Showdown! It has been ten years since Beria Galactic Empire was performed with Cyro, and it is gratifying that Cyro has still been active in this decade. Although Cyro appeared through the theatrical version of Ultraman, his rich personality has firmly grasped the hearts of fans. When I go to ultraman festival every year, I also see that Cyro and the fans have a lot of contact opportunities, and it is really a miracle that everyone likes the character.
Q: What is the charm of Cyro Ultraman?
A: Cyro is a new hero with completely different characteristics from the previous Ultraman, and is full of charm in both appearance and fighting style. However, if you really want to talk about his greatest charm, it should be the growth trajectory in the work. In particular, the process of building friendships with other partners of the Ultimate Cyro Guard is quite a favorite. Because I hadn't seen Ultraman become partners with heroes from other worlds, I watched it with "Not alone fighting!" "The excitement.
Q: How did you feel when playing Princess Emerana?
A: Before I acted, I had seen "Diga Ultraman", "Dyna Ultraman", "Gaia Ultraman", "Gauss Ultraman", the heroines of these works are very lively Earthlings, but there are also the heroines of "Diga Ultraman & Dyna Ultraman & Gaia Ultraman" The Great Armageddon Shichise Risha and Camilla of "Diga Ultraman Final Holy War", they all have a certain shadow on them.
Emirana from the star of Esmeraluda was also saddled with the shadow of leaving her family and subjects to flee on their own, and her heart was also eager for the help of heroes, and I also hoped to perform this feeling at that time.
In addition, I dyed my hair because I wanted to play Emilana, but the school at that time banned hair dyeing, so I had to wear a wig to school, which is also a very nostalgic memory.
Q: What's the fun between you and the other two lead actors in this work, Mr. Tomoyuki Koyanagi and Mr. Ryuto Hamada?
A: Yu Koyanagi, who plays Arashi, is a presence that can enliven the atmosphere on the shooting scene, and I also gained a lot of vitality from him during the shooting. Xiaolong (Ryuto Hamada), who played Koji, was only 10 years old at the time, and would be carried and hugged together, often playing together, and I was very touched when I learned that he starred in "Ultraman Ged". At that time, because Xiaolong and I were only teenagers, we couldn't drink alcohol, so the three of us agreed to go to drink together after becoming adults, hoping to have a chance to realize the agreement.
Q: What scenes of Koji, played by Mr. Ryuto Hamada, impressed you?
A: Xiaolong's words must be the line of "Jean Fight", which is like a more powerful existence that makes the cohesion of the Ultimate Cyro Guard, which is a famous scene in my heart. And although I was not present during the photography of this scene, I have heard that this section took a considerable amount of time. Later, I heard the staff on the scene comment that "Xiaolong will definitely become a good actor with perseverance", and now he is indeed active in many places, and I am happy for him.
Q: What scenes of Arashi, played by Mr. Yu Yanagi, impressed you?
A: Because Arashi is basically in a state of merging with Cyro, the description I hear is that of a character like a high school student, both the mature side of past experiences and the naughty side of children.
The overseer explains that the relationship between Princess Emirana and Cyro is a relationship that will make the audience feel the heartbeat. Especially at the end of the story, the scene where Cyro puts the crown on Emilana, I think, as the superintendent said, is very heartwarming.
Q: In the subsequent Ultraman Cyro: Killer Bitstar, princess Amirana was also the only work in which Princess Amy Rana appeared.
A: This story contains details such as Emilana's relationship with the Ultimate Cyro Guard. The filming of this work coincided with the great East Japan Earthquake. Although there will also be negative thoughts such as hesitation on the spot. But Yuichi Abe's supervision suggested that "it is precisely such a close-up work that can give courage and vitality to others, and now we should cheer for those who are still struggling!" The words remain in my heart today.
Because the theme is to describe helping each other and increasing the beauty of partners, Jennaeus, who awakens the heart of justice in the plot, becomes a new partner, but the scene of convincing Zhan Killer also shows that it is precisely because it is a rather difficult period, so the mood of helping each other is also very important. Although Amelana is a princess, she is by no means a weak existence, and the first half of the play also has a scene of her stepping forward to try to stop the rampage of Jabert, which makes Amy Lana's image more plump.
Q: Super Showdown! Is the Belial Galactic Empire also ten years old? In your imagination, what will happen to Emerana after that? If you can play with Cyro again, are there any expectations?
A: Actually, today's clothes are selected according to the impression of Emilana ten years later. I would imagine what would have happened ten years from now, when Esmeraluda had been influenced by Earth's culture. If only this time the clothes could convey a more mature Emilana feeling.
At that time, Cyro was still a high school student,000, and now he should be wearing a cape or haburi and becoming a good master. If you can perform together again, I hope to meet Cyro again as a queen.
Q: What is Ultraman to Miss Tsuchiya?
A: I've starred in many works as an actress, but no matter what role in any work, I also feel that Amy Lana has always existed in my heart. For me, the Ultraman series is also my real starting point, a light of hope that will guide me in the way.
Q: Finally, please say a few words to the fans!
A: I grew up watching the Ultraman series in front of the TV, and I was also touched by the annual performances at ULTRAMAN FESTIVAL, where there are quite important themes such as trusting in partners. These are by no means simply beautiful words, but are expressed through very deep unfolding. If I can bring the beauty of this series to more people through my own strength, I will also be very happy. In the future, I will also work with fans to help the Ultraman series.
