Kawamura-san

Kawamura-san showing off the DVD of Slayers Great, which is about to be used for an impromptu dubbing session. ^_^;;

2 volunteers step forward to voice Lina & Naga in the great spell-casting duel in the middle of the movie... Yes, the guy is playing Naga. ^_^;;

Wider angle of the volunteers.

2 more volunteers to dub the same scene... Hey, at least they were both girls this time around. ^_^

Another wider angle shot.

This time, a volunteer steps forward to dub the scene where Naga is following a trail of coins up the stairs, into an apparent trap. And yes, she got Naga's laugh right.

''Ooh, hoh hoh hoh!! ^o^'' Err, never mind.

This time, a scene from Char's Counterattack...

...with Kawamura-san jumping in to voice her own role!

Slightly closer up.

Kawamura-san's panel was definitely fun. ^_^
