==KanColle Seiyuu Bulletin: [[Miyakawa Wakana]]==
An interview with [[Miyakawa Wakana]], seiyuu of Destroyer Division 8's [[Asashio]], [[Ooshio]], [[Michishio]], and [[Arashio]]. We asked for her thoughts, as a woman who has been involved with KanColle since service began, on Kanmusu, the product, and more!
===Portraying the Kanmusu with empathy for their backgrounds===
'''Interviewer (I):''' Miyakawa-san, you've acted for KanColle since the very beginning, five years ago. What kind of thoughts do you have on it, having done so many kanmusu?
'''Miyakawa (M):''' This year be the fifth since I received the offer to work on KanColle. From the beginning, I always looked at the history of the kanmusu I performed. I would think things like, "I'm sure [[Michishio]]'s protesting attitude comes from an event in her history" as I acted. It was a lot of fun, and the more I learned about kanmusu the more beloved they became to me.
'''I:''' Miyakawa-san, a fair number of your Kanmusu have Kai Ni. How does that moment their Kai Ni are implemented feel?
'''M:''' It sort of feels like a mother watching her children as they grow up. Especially with the destroyer girls, their graphics and lines start to leave a more adult impression, making that feeling all the stronger.
'''I:''' Who do you think especially changed with her Kai Ni?
'''M:''' All the destroyer girls change like that, but I think [[Michishio]] stands out. You might say she's less tough, and that, despite the boldness you can see in her proud pose, she's smiling and her attitude's softened a bit. [[Kasumi]] herself became a little gentler with her Kai Ni, but I think [[Michishio]]'s case is a bit different from hers. [[Kasumi]]'s "tsun" was always about her conversation partner, but [[Michishio]]'s stemmed from low self-esteem, perhaps, or that she's a little too aggressive because she has something she has to protect, so she's all "tsuntsun" to those around her. I think with her Kai Ni, Michishio has definitely overcome what weighed her down, which I find really heartwarming.
'''I:''' [[Michishio]], of course, is a member of the Nishimura Fleet featuring in the fall event, "[[Fall 2017 Event|Showdown at Operation Shou-Gou! The Battle of Leyte Gulf (Part 1)]]". How did you feel about the fall event?
'''M:''' I played it myself, of course, but I love to watch others play as well, so I watched many playthroughs. Everyone had such an intense passion for the Nishimura Fleet as they played! In history, [[Michishio]] was abandoned during the Battle of Leyte Gulf and sank alone... but seeing the seven members of the Nishimura Fleet assembled and fighting had me on the verge of tears.
'''I:''' Destroyer Division 8 and Nishimura Fleet quest lines were added in October. Please tell us how those felt during recording.
'''M:''' Ordinary lines are almost exclusively meant to be directed toward the Admiral, so it was quite a new experience recording a conversation between Kanmusu comrades. For Destroyer Division 8 it was really heartwarming seeing the relationships between Asashio-class sisters, and for the Nishimura Fleet it was refreshing seeing the always-tsuntsun Michishio show a surprising amount of concern for [[Shigure]]. I myself really want to see more exchanges between kanmusu comrades.
'''I:''' Besides those lines, what other recordings left a lasting impression on you?
'''M:''' I really love [[Arashio]]'s MVP line. That line, "The goddess of victory is right here~ Hurry up and catch me~!", makes me think, "What's this girl doing, calling herself the 'goddess of victory'!" - it's really cute.[[Asashio]]'s rainy seasonal seasonal too. Saying "Shall we start a teruteru bozu-making mission?" during rainy season totally fits [[Asashio]]'s serious attitude.
'''I:''' We also had [[Michishio|Michishio Kai Ni's]] voice for the TV commercial for this issue's Comptiq. Please tell us how you felt about doing that narration as well.
'''M:''' [[Michishio]] was the last member of Destroyer Division 8 to get her Kai Ni. I think [[Michishio]] was anxiously wondering when she would get her Kai Ni, so I found it deeply moving to do my first commercial narration as her. It was my first time in an announcer role as a shipgirl, so for myself it was something I looked forward to give it a shot.
'''I:''' Incidentally, what Kanmusu do you like, besides the ones you perform?
'''M:''' The one I like the most is actually [[Asashimo]]! Her appearance, personality, and voice all struck me. I've actually got a thing for silver hair, so I also like [[Kashima]], and basically the rest of the silver-haired shipgirls. Recently, my dream has been to form an all-silver hair fleet. I like [[Kiyoshimo]] and the other girls in the Rei-gou group as well. I've heard that [[Kasumi|Kasumi Kai Ni]] just got a new figure, so I totally want to assemble the figures for all of them now <ref>Editor's note: the Kasumi Kai Ni figure will be a Sega prize figure released the week of December 5th).</ref>
'''I:''' If you have another opportunity in the future, what kind of kanmusu would you like to portray?
'''M:''' I'm really thankful I was given the chance to act for eight kanmusu, but if I get another opportunity, I'd like to take the chance to do a type of girl I haven't done yet. There aren't that many boyish shipgirls like [[Mogami]] either if you think about it, so I'd love to try that. Even better if she had silver hair! (laugh)
'''I:''' I hope you do get a chance to do a silver-haired girl! Lastly, do you have a message for the Comptiq readers?
'''M:''' KanColle is already plunging through its fifth year, but I'm really happy that a single work captivated hearts for so long. It's thanks to the support of all the Admirals that it's continued for this long. It's really encouraging for me hearing people talk about KanColle. I'd love to continue to express my thanks to all the Admirals by continuing to perform, and for us all to walk onward together. Thank you for your continued support!
