Chapter 168: [168] Selected
"How big is this place?" the female host asked, looking at the surrounding crowd.
"I heard it's about 10,000 square meters, and all the real estate owners here even want to buy the houses nearby," the man replied.
"10,000 square meters? Isn't that over 1,000 hectares? It's more than ten times larger than Tokyo Disneyland!" The woman appeared shocked, although they had already been astonished before.
"Yeah..." the man spoke with significance, "This place was built with several billion yen, and the purchase of land alone cost over a billion yen. Although it's not a place like Tokyo, and Morioh Town is somewhat remote, it's still incredibly large."
"So, does that mean this is now the largest amusement park in Japan?" the female host exclaimed.
"You're right; this is indeed the largest amusement park in Japan, and maybe even the world! However... I didn't check this information before coming here. What a mistake!" The man pretended to be completely unaware and came here due to an unexpected event.
After all, he was paid.
Ahem.
Their goal was simple—to introduce the "Stardust Crusaders" amusement park, which, compared to other places, was still a paradise for JOJO fans. However, it was the most accessible place for non-fans, as Kazuya had hired people from various countries.
Among them, some even didn't know Japanese!
The purpose was to let them experience the feeling of being in a foreign country, speaking words the locals couldn't understand...
In Morioh Town, it was indeed the largest amusement park, but compared on a global scale, it couldn't compete.
It could still be said that it was huge, but the biggest? Not quite.
In this era, there were already amusement parks that covered hundreds of square kilometers.
It was almost the size of the entire Morioh Town, and Kazuya's money wasn't enough to buy a whole Morioh Town, especially in the current era.
You see, real estate in today's Japan was incredibly expensive.
For example, in terms of the current housing prices in Tokyo, selling everything could buy a country!
This was enough to show the real estate prices in Japan at this time.
Kazuya were also waiting...
There were a few "holdouts" around this amusement park, but they were probably just holdouts for now.
When the real estate prices in this area began to plummet drastically, it would be time to make a move. If they didn't make a move by then? Well, let Emiya Kiritsugu take a trip; it was time for him to use his suggestive magecraft.
But a JOJO theme park of 10,000 square meters was not enough for them!
That meant...
For now, it was temporarily enough.
...
"After playing all day..." looking at the lights that had completely dimmed, Ishibashi Tokiwa said, "Saeki-kun, who are you going to vote for?"
"As for me?" Saeki Yasuzu looked at the ticket in his hand; the ticket had two folds, meaning he could vote for two people, "I think No. 3, Erina, is good."
"I think No. 13, DIO, looks handsome." Ishibashi Tokiwa said, "How about this! Let's vote for No. 3, Erina, and No. 13, DIO... If it's shown on TV, it must be handsome!"
"Yeah, that's right." Saeki Yasuzu nodded, "Let's go, after voting, let's go back."
"Right, the voting place is over there."
...
"Morning morning morning morning, Morioh-chou Radio, We love Morioh-chou."
"Good morning, good morning, Morioh Town Radio, accompanying you on this day is me, your neighbor, Unabara, such a refreshing morning, everyone knows, right? The recent big event in Morioh Town has been formally opened to everyone in Kurokawa Kazuya's "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure" theme park. I wonder if everyone has gone to play? It's too great to have such an amusement park in Morioh Town. Well, next, I'll present a song that makes everyone feel very proud, the morning song. First of all, this one—"
"JoJo theme park... Looks really good, I'll check it out when I have time."
In a hotel in Morioh Town, a woman who looked about twenty years old with dim red hair listened to the broadcast while picking up her glasses and said, "But, before that, I still have something to do. Something important. I can't forget it... Well, even if I forget it, it doesn't matter. Let's go see if he's in Morioh Town or not... If he is, let's go see; if he isn't, let it be. Just take a look... that so-called future vision... it's a bit interesting."
She was none other than Toukou Aozaki, who had recently been designated for sealing by the Mage's Association.
One could say that she hadn't heard what her teacher said when she was designated for [Sealing Designation] until now.
Years later, more than a decade later, in the El-Melloi II Case Files, she asked her teacher what she was thinking when she was designated for sealing.
At that time, her teacher replied, "The old man recommended you quite a bit. Please make sure to preserve Toukou Aozaki and her magic circuit forever in the depths of the Clock Tower's secret rituals."
Well, although she didn't hear these things now, she could probably guess.
...
Takehito Koyasu's heart was beating violently.
It had been two days already.
Since he participated in the voice actor selection... Although they were still screening for some supporting roles, the early roles like his had already been completed.
Next was the announcement.
When the results were announced, not only would there be banners in front of the hall, he would also receive a call...
But even if he wasn't selected, he would still receive a call...
"Ring, ring, ring—"
"Uh—"
Takehito Koyasu deeply swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Could it be the people from JOJO Animation?
"Um... Excuse me, this is Takehito Koyasu."
"Hello." A soft female voice came from the other end of the phone, "This is JOJO Animation. Is this Takehito Koyasu, the voice actor for Dio Brando, Number 13?"
"Yes!" Takehito Koyasu stood up and looked at the phone with a tilted head.
"You have passed the previous voice actor selection and can register at the JOJO Animation Branch in Morioh City by February 1."
The rest... Takehito Koyasu couldn't hear it anymore.
He just felt... his soul was about to fly.
"Um... Koyasu-san? Koyasu-san?"
"Huh? Ah... sorry! I got carried away by the surprise. Could you please repeat that, the address?"
"Yes, I'll say it again. The address is..."
After noting down the address, Takehito Koyasu once again headed to the JOJO theme park! Recently, he hadn't left Morioh Town.
Just to be safe, he decided to take a look and see if he was selected!
Hurry up—
He saw it.
In front of the hall, there were several large signs surrounding it.
Above, there were pictures of characters like Jonathan Joestar, Dio Brando, and others, and below each picture were names.
People crowded around in circles.
Takehito Koyasu barely squeezed to the side of Dio Brando's sign and saw the words below the picture.
"Dio Brando voice actor—Number 13, passed the voice actor selection."
He made it!
