Through the animation experience
Through the anime drawing experience course, I learned about the differences in animation culture between Japan and overseas, and felt the secret of why Japanese animation is so popular in the world. And through the experience of anime editing, I have been exposed to the latest technology and know the front and back scenes of animation production.
Through these experiences, it was a good opportunity to visit the specialized colleges to learn about the atmosphere and facilities there, and to think about going to the college after graduate from the Japanese language school.
Moreover, in the voice actor experience, I learned the technique necessary for the voice actor such as the pronunciation and the accent under the guidance of the professional lecturer, and I was able to enjoy to be a voice actor of the character of the animation that I have watched.
