Regarding my opening of the harem in the comprehensive world

"Dad! No, nothing."

"Ah, hello uncle." , Seeing that Chihuahua addressed this man as father, Subaru even followed the greeting.

"Huh? Hanori, this is..."

"He's our Chihuahua's coach oh, ah-la, the one that Chihuahua talks about at home from time to time and charmed our Chihuahua so much-"

"Ahhhh! Mom, what are you talking about! Ahahahaha...", Tomohana suddenly shouted to cover up Hanaori's voice, quietly tugging on Hanaori's clothes, making the latter laugh.

"Oh... I remember, it's Subaru Hasegawa, Subaru-kun, right?" , Shinobu walked over to sit down next to Hanori.

"Yes."

"Then Subaru-kun, what brings you to the humble abode today?"

"Honey!" , Hanaori gave Shinobu a light shove, then smiled, "It's Subaru-kun who's sending Jihana home today, I happened to meet him on the way, so I invited Subaru-kun to come and sit at the house."

"Yes...excuse me for interrupting."

"Oh, I see." , Shinobu looked like he was fine with it and stood up. "Then sit down, I still have some research to finish, so I'll take my leave."

"Yes, please take your time..."

Snap!

The only thing that answered Subaru was the sound of the door hitting the doorframe as Shinobu walked out....

"That, Subaru-kun, don't mind, Jihana's dad is doing research on the tea ceremony right now, and it's possible that he's stuck somewhere, causing a bit of a bad mood..."

"It's fine, I don't mind at all." , Subaru nodded in understanding, but then again, that didn't seem to be the case....

After talking for most of an hour, and seeing that it was almost dinner time, Subaru felt it was time for him to go back.

"Subaru-kun, are you sure you won't have dinner at our house? A rare visit."

"Thank you for your kindness, but the family is already waiting. Then, I'll take my leave."

"Then, take care oh."

"Subaru-san, bye."

"Well, Chihuahua, bye." , Subaru just wanted to touch Jihana's hair, then retracted his hand like he thought of something.

"Thank you for your care today, goodbye." , Subaru bowed to Hanaori, then turned and walked towards the station.

"Nah, Chihuahua." , Hanori said suddenly as she watched Subaru's back getting farther and farther away.

"Huh? What can I do for you, Mom?"

"Chihuahua's eye, it's not bad." , after saying that, Hanaori laughed and entered the house.

"Mom! You're talking about it again!"

Chapter 197 - The Selection of the Voice (above)

Early in the morning, Subaru, who had received an early notice, and Thor rushed to the office together. Today was the day after the first episode of "Unheard of" anime was made, and it was also the day of Subaru's long-awaited voice casting.

"President." , inside the conference room, the Unheard of Hanafuda production team greeted Subaru who walked in.

"Hmm." , Subaru promised, his gaze lingering for a moment on each face. Without exception, everyone had dark circles under their eyes, large or small, especially the head honcho, Miss Toda, who Subaru even wondered if she hadn't slept all week.

"Good work everyone, you must not have slept well all week." , Subaru bowed with a serious expression.

"Yeah, President, we've been working overtime to get the first episode out in a week!" , said Mizuno leaning her body forward and pointing at her eyes. "Look at my dark circles, how long will it take for this to rest back up~~"

"Ahem! Mizuno!" , Toda glared at her, then said to Subaru, "I'm sorry President, Mizuno is always like this, please don't mind."

Subaru waved her hand, "It's fine, I prefer this atmosphere, I'm not used to it if I really have to suit up for a serious meeting instead."

"Exactly! It used to be that every time we discussed anime it was serious as hell, that's why I didn't want to take part.", Mizuno echoed Subaru's words. , Mizuno echoed Subaru's words with a happy expression like she had found a confidant.

"Haha, let's just keep it that way then, and also, after today's CV casting is over, I'll treat you all to dinner as a small reward for the non-stop overtime I've been working for, how about it?"

"Really? Hooray!" , Mizuno cheered.

"Respectfully, then." , Toda pushed up his glasses and bowed his head slightly as a gesture of thanks.

Odagiri, who was in charge of the script, laughed, "Of course I'll be there if the president is buying, but I just wonder if the president can drink?"

"Ahaha, I'm not even an adult yet, not much of a drinker."

"Oh yeah, that's right..."

It occurred to everyone that their president, the light novelist known as Monster, was also just a mere 16-year-old.

"Let's not talk about that, has the animation been fully produced?"

"Yes." , Toda said. "The first episode of the anime is now just missing the voice actors, as well as the OP and ED, and the animation for the second episode is in the works as well."

"The second episode?" , Subaru was a little surprised. "Aren't you all here, how..."

"President, the people you're seeing right now are only half of the production team, and half of the members are still involved in the production of the second episode. After all, the last thing we need in the company right now is manpower." , the always serious Toda-san ridiculed a few words in a rare way.

"Then it's not too late, the voice actors should have arrived, so let's start now."

"Yes!"

"By the way, have you invited all three of the voices I told you about?"

"Invited, and now inside the lounge, are you trying to meet them, President?"

"Well-", Subaru thought for a moment. "Tell you what, can you get the three of them to come to my place for me? I have something to say."

"Yes."

"Wait." , Subaru suddenly called out to Toda who was making a move to leave. "As expected, let's just follow the procedure for everything, since we say we have to convince people with our strength, I'll inevitably cause gossip if I suddenly call them."

"I see." , Toda smiled with a bow and walked out of the meeting room.

........

The lounge was filled with voice actors who had come to audition, and although it was said that Beepi-beepi was in its last days, it was indisputable that it was producing animations now. For the voice actors, as long as there was animation being produced, it was worth a try, and whether or not the company would go out of business had absolutely nothing to do with them.

"Nah nah, Saori-san, were you invited here as well?" , in the lounge, a girl with slightly curly long black hair looking very lively said to the person next to her.

"Well, I was shocked when my agent told me, I don't know why Eirin- no, I don't know why Beep, Beep Company would just invite me." , Saori shook her head.

"Speaking of which, Aiya-san was invited here too, right."

"Yes."

"I was invited as well." , Yao propped up his chin with his hand and said to himself like, "I don't know why the company would suddenly invite us, even a company that's about to go out of business doesn't need to put its head down and invite us third or fourth tier little voice actors."

"Yao!" , Saori tugged at Yao's clothes. "Anyway, we're in someone else's company now, it's not good to talk about someone else like that..."

"I'm telling the truth well, I heard that the president of this company has been replaced by a teenage kid, isn't that nonsense?" , Yao made a face. "But, you know, it's said that the production of this animation is Sakamoto-sensei's work hey, I didn't expect this company to find that Sakamoto-sensei to buy the rights, it's really amazing hey!"

"Emmm...", Aiya and Saori looked at each other, then said slowly, "Don't you know, the president of this company, is Sakamoto-sensei..."

"HEY?!!!" , Yao shrieked as if she knew something big and important, drawing all the attention around her. She then bowed her head apologetically and lowered her voice to ask the two, "Really, is that Sakamoto-sensei?"

"Yeah, it's said that Sakamoto-sensei bought this company and then immediately came up with a new anime to save the company."

"Wow~~", Yao's eyes sparkled with little stars. "Sakamoto-sensei is really good at this! I've always loved his Spring Things, and keep thinking about when I can voice the characters in them when they're animated someday! So, will Sakamoto-sensei come today? It'll come, right?!"

"Ahem, Yao, you-", Aiya paused and said with some hesitation, "You don't like Sakamoto-sensei, do you..."

"Like yeah!" , Yao simply replied, not caring what expressions Saori and Aiya were wearing. "Sakamoto-sensei is so powerful and rich, and most importantly, don't you think Sakamoto-sensei is handsome?!!!"

"That, though. But the others are only sixteen, oh?" Saori reminded Haruka very kindly, "I'm only five years younger than him.

"It's only five years younger than me. Besides, age isn't a problem! I firmly believe that true love transcends all!!!" , Yao gazed forward with determination, if her eyes could shine, she would be perfectly capable of handling a 1000W bulb right now.

"........"

Yao scratched his head and said with a hehehe smile, "Well, this is all just a joke lah. I'm just a small voice right now, I don't know if I'll be able to be chosen later."

"It's also true, although I don't know why we were invited, but it's useless to say anything if we can't win the position." , Saori nodded.

"Go for it!" , Aiya waved a small fist, cheering for the two of them as well.

"Well! Go!"

A few minutes later, Toda pushed open the door and walked in, exuding the air of a strong woman.

"The Voice Casting will now begin, please ask the person whose name is called to follow me to the dubbing room."

Chapter 198 - The Selection of the Voice Actor (Next)

"Thank you for your participation, please take a break in the lounge and wait for our announcement.", said Toda. , Toda sent the previous wave of voice actors back to the lounge, and then called out another batch of voice actors who had applied for the job.

As for Subaru and a few other participants in the assessment, they were in another room, separated from the dubbing room only by a glass, but in order not to affect the voice-actors' performance, Subaru's side of the room was not visible from the dubbing room.

"Hey, Mizuno-san." , Subaru whispered to Mizuno. "Toda-san she, is she always like this?"

"Well? What kind?" , Mizuno looked like she hadn't woken up, she wasn't originally needed for the selection of the voice actress, but said something about how she must meet the CV recommended by the president and followed.

"It's just the way Toda-san acts, is she always so hands-on with everything?"

"Oh that ah." , Mizuno, who was lying on the table very impersonally, said indifferently, "It's always been like that ah."

"So ah..."

"Nah nah, President, it looks like those three guys you mentioned are here hey!" , Mizuno suddenly lifted his head and looked inside the dubbing room with interest.

Subaru looked over as well. Based on the looks he had seen on the internet, Subaru was sure that these were indeed the voice actors from his previous life.

At that moment, Saori, Aiya and Haruka were sitting on the chairs in the dubbing room, holding the script given by Odagiri in their hands, and listening carefully to Odagiri's explanation of the characters and the general plot.

The casting process for a voice actor is roughly an audition, then an interview, and finally the right person is chosen. Of course, if you don't even pass the audition match, then there's no need to interview.

"Uh- that's the general content, anyway, you will now each play the first scene in which the characters appear, and if you are qualified you will be given a detailed explanation of the character's setting by the president." , and after saying that Odagiri walked out of the dubbing room without dragging his feet in the slightest. As for what it could be dubbed as, it would depend on the voice actor's ability to comprehend the characters, which was not in the scope of Odagiri's responsibility.

"Nah nah, did you guys hear that, if you pass, Sakamoto-sensei will come and tell us about the character settings hey!" , Yao excitedly elbowed the two people next to him.

"That's only if we succeed in being chosen." , Aiya replied quietly. "And maybe Sakamoto-sensei is watching us, so work hard and don't think about anything."

"Well! So - or do we go by the characters we've chosen before?"

"That's fine with me, where's Saori?"

"I can do that."

"Are you ready?" , Toda came to Subaru's side of the room and asked through the microphone.

"Get ready!"

"Now then!"

The screen in front of the trio lit up at the end of Toda's voice, displaying the first episode of the unheard-of anime.

In the middle of summer, cicadas cawed discontentedly in the trees, as if complaining that such hot weather would disturb their good mood of finding a mate. The camera pans to the kitchen of an old building, where a red-clad boy tears open a packet of instant noodles.

"A beast of summer, quite hideously fierce." , In-tae puts the instant noodles inside the pan and tosses the trash aside in passing.

It was time for the noodle code line. Subaru looked away, looking at Aiya Chano, who was sitting on the far right. Could it match the feeling of the previous life or not? He was looking forward to it.

"Ah! How crafty, the noodle code also needs salt ramen!"

"Ah, eggs."

"Pasta code na, to eat egg nuggets, egg nuggets."

"Nah, egg, to curdle oh?"

"Stir the eggs away, stir them away, stir them away!"

HEY? Is it wrong? Subaru was dumbfounded. Besides, it didn't look like Aiya had asked for anything, right? So this voice is.....

Subaru slowly turned his head, and an image that nearly made him vomit blood appeared before his eyes: Saori holding the script, dubbing the voice of the face code... Subaru couldn't imagine how Saori-san, who had always impressed him as a quiet person, was able to produce the lively voice of the face code. Now, you don't have to imagine it, it's happening right in front of you.

Then there was the appearance of Kikyo Anjo Naruko.

As if confirming the premonition in Subaru's mind, Tousatsuyo, who was supposed to voice Naruko, didn't open her mouth and became Aiya....

And then, the quiet Tsuruko turned into a girl who always felt lively despite being quiet in Yao's interpretation....

"President...", Toda spoke up a bit hesitantly. "With all due respect, if the three of them are the only ones, there are several voices in front of them that are no worse than them, why do you..."

"No no no!!!" , Subaru suddenly stood up very excitedly. "Wait, please wait a moment, I'll be gone for a little while!"
