CATDOLL: "Sound! Euphonium ~ Welcome to Kitauji High School Wind Band ~" Director Ishihara Tatsuya accepted an interview with a magazine and said that the focus of this work is "sports" and "toughness"

Kyoto Animation's "Sound! Euphonium ~ Welcome to the Kitauji High School Wind Band ~", which will be broadcast in April, was recently interviewed by a magazine by its director Ishihara Tatsuya, who said that this work " is not about the light and soft daily life ". In other words, Director Ishihara wants to make Kyoto's second music animation into a different work from "K-ON".

The director said in an interview that the animation will not focus on the girls' leisurely daily life, but will be closer to "sports" and "toughness" (スポーツと根性. The original text is "スポ根"). But at the same time, he also said that this is still a classic youth drama.

In addition, almost all the musical instruments in the play are hand-painted. Well, as long as it looks good, we don’t care whether it is hand-painted or CG, but we can also understand that Director Ishihara is praising the painters in Kyoto for their skills.
