Tokyo Animation Studio Headquarters.
Theo directly entered the building in his new sports car, and after parking the car, he didn't delay anymore and headed to Ryoko's Office.
Shortly after, Theo greeted Ryoko's assistant with a bright smile on his face, "Good Morning, Amber. Everything is okay, I hope?"
Amber was taken by surprise when she saw his resplendent smile and blushed as she replied, "Good Morning, Boss! Yes, everything is fine, thank you for asking."
She tried hard to suppress her nerves, but it seemed almost impossible in front of such a handsome boss.
Theo nodded and smiled as he passed by her and entered Ryoko's Office.
"Good Morning, Ryoko! Ready for the auditions?" Theo said with a smile as he saw the blue-haired beauty.
"Good morning, boss! Of course, I am!" Ryoko laughed in excitement.
Ryoko had never seen an audition for voice actors before, so she was extra enthusiastic that day, especially when it involved the anime she was producing with her sweat and blood.
For the next couple of hours, Theo and Ryoko discussed what they were looking forward to from the voice actors and what they needed to present to get the parts in the anime.
After all, every character needed an appropriate voice to play the part, as it would be catastrophic for the anime if they did cast a voice actor mismatched with the characters.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, the two of them needed to establish a goal for each character of the anime to achieve through the voice actors, as it would be their first anime, and they would not be content with the second best.
When the time for the audition was near, Theo and Ryoko moved to a small conference room where they would be able to watch the audition live from Sakura City.
It was a small conference room with a capacity of 10 people, but there was a gigantic screen on the side wall and a connection with the branch studio where they would be able to pass instructions to the other side in real time.
"Hey, Amano-san, is everything okay over there for the audition?" Theo asked with a calm voice.
Through the enormous screen, it was possible to see Amano Rio's figure as she gave the last instructions to her subordinates.
"Yes, boss! The majority of the candidates who applied already arrived and they are waiting in the other room." Amano replied with a serious and professional tone of voice.
After years of working at a fast-food shop as a manager, she acquired an incomparable work ethic, even more now as she worked in her dream job.
Running an animation studio!
Even if it was just a branch studio, it was much more than she had ever dreamed.
"That's great, Rio-chan!" Ryoko complimented with a teasing smile.
Amano could not help but let out a helpless smile, Ryoko was one of her best friends, so it was difficult to maintain her professional facade in front of her.
Afterward, the three of them discussed the details of the audition.
While the three of them discussed the last few details of the audition, the voice actors were inside the waiting room.
There were more than 150 voice actors in the waiting room, it was a relief that when Theo projected the building he already envisioned the times when hundreds of people would come to audition, so even though there were more than 100 people in the room, it wasn't crowded.
But at each moment new candidates arrived, there were even some famous voice actors who were already somewhat renowned in the industry.
At a certain moment, a young girl entered the room, she wore simple clothes and carried a backpack.
She was almost invisible among the tens of voice actors, but her were filled with phenomenal brilliance, it carried an infinite hope for the future.
Ozawa Nana was 18 years old, she had just graduated from high school, and differently from other people of her age, she knew exactly what she wanted to be in the future, a renowned voice actress!
But the problem was that Nana came from a simple family, her parents worked 14 hours just to make the bills even every month, but even with all the difficulties, her parents supported her dream.
That's why even when she was in high school, she worked in part-time jobs to support her dream as she didn't want to put even more pressure on her parents.
She worked in all types of odd jobs to pay for voice acting lessons, but even with all her effort, she did not manage to get any part, she had already auditioned for more than 20 anime productions, but all failed in the end.
But even with all these failures, her confidence in her dream never waivered, she accepted these failures as part of her journey toward success.
She worked even more to improve so that one day she could realize her dream.
But even with all her confidence, she still was a little nervous.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had just graduated from high school, and her family did not have money to send her to college, and she didn't have much confidence in getting a high enough grade to go to public universities.
After all, she devoted all her free time in high school to her pursuit to become a voice actress, and after her graduation, she became a little lost and nervous about the future for the first time.
It was then that she heard of a new anime calling for casting, she was instantly aroused from her lost state and applied to audition for a part in the anime.
If she was able to get a part in an anime production everything would resolve itself, after all, with the money from anime production she would be able to support herself, plus she would be able to realize her dream.
So, she resumed her previous confident state and came to the audition with high hopes, and just like every other audition she participated in, she was 100% confident in getting the part.
Nana quickly found a seat in the crowd and waited patiently for the audition to start as she observed her competitors.
'From what I heard, the anime is going to have 18 supporting roles and 2 main roles, one male and one female. I have to strive for the main role, but a supporting role would not be bad.' Nana thought confidently.
If her thoughts were heard by the other candidates, they would laugh without restraints, 'who is this nobody to be so arrogant?' would be their words, but that was just how Nana was.
She never doubted herself or contented herself with the second best that's why in every audition she participated in, she applied for main roles in the production.
That's why it was normal for her to think such absurd words.
But she had to admit that she was a little nervous when she saw some renowned actors waiting in the crowd.
She admired many of them and had them as her goal for the future.
She grew up watching some of them act in her favorite animes, but at the same time, she was excited to compete with them.
'When I get the part, they will admire me too.' She thought arrogantly with a chuckle.
She did not know yet, but her arrogant words would become true someday in the future.
