The air in the training room was thick.
Opposite, the action actor who was his sparring partner treated him sternly. Mizuna Hayato had a cold face. His bangs were wet with sweat accumulated during training, and strands of wet hair stuck to his handsome face, but it did not affect his handsomeness at all. The tall nose bridge and the knife-like profile are sharp and angular. They have the heroic spirit of a boy and the toughness that is unique to men.
I saw him slowly opening his eyes, and the sword in his hand was slowly sheathed, and then he bent down, bending the waist and holding the sword to his side. The movement was similar to Iai, but the range was much larger than the standard kendo movement.
He opened one in front of him and took a deep breath for two moments.
In an instant, his hand quickly grasped the handle of the knife, pulled out the entire knife, and slashed hard to the right front!
But the knife only cuts into the air next to the opponent.
It's empty! No!
Before his movement was full, following the slashing motion of the sword, he raised his left hand and struck the opponent's hand hard with the handle of the sword!
"Bang!" The handle of the knife struck the pad on the action actor's hand, making a loud bang.
"Okay!" He shouted subconsciously.
Opposite him, Mizunami Hayato maintained his slashing motion, slowly stood up straight, and put the sword back into its sheath.
While sheathing the sword, he said in a cold voice: "Hiten Mitsurugi Style - Double Dragon Flash."
As soon as he finished speaking, the knife was completely returned to the scabbard, making a muffled sound.
"Wow!!" "Pah, pah, pah, pah." Nagasawa Masami on the side clapped happily like a little fan.
"Huh~" Hayato Mizuna exhaled, and then smiled: "Oh, it's a pity that it's a plastic knife, and the movement is deformed when I pull it out."
"Hey, hey, hey, if it's a real knife, can I still have it with my hand?" the eldest brother opposite complained.
"I also hit you with the handle of a real sword and a fake sword." Hayato Mizunagi replied.
"The handle of the knife doesn't hurt anymore?"
Although there are many realistic scenes in "Rurouni Kenshin", it is a manga after all, and many things are difficult to be reproduced 100% if it is to be made into a live-action version.
On the one hand, the styling is one thing, but there is already a version of the previous life as a reference. Mizuna Hayato only needs to modify some of the less favorable comments in later reviews. On the other hand, it is the restoration of the tricks in the comics.
"Hiten Sword Style", as the swordsmanship practiced by the protagonist Heimura Kenshin, whether it can be restored or not will not only worry the fans of the original work, but it is also a major point and difficulty in the action design of Hayato Minakami.
When it comes to designing fantasy movements that are beautiful, handsome and exciting, Mizuna Hayato is very confident, but it is not easy to adapt the movements of the original manga.
In particular, the biggest feature of "Hiten Mitsurugi Style" is "super speed", and it is not easy to show this feature in the movie.
In the manga, Kenshin simply knocked down several people with his breath. If he did this in the movie, the audience would complain that the action design did not understand anything and only saw people falling.
As a director, he needs to consider more aspects.
For example, in the scene of "Double Dragon Flash" in the previous movie version, the director chose to play it twice to show the famous move in the original work, once as a high-speed version and once as a slow playback. There is nothing wrong with the idea, but unfortunately it seems not. If handled well, the two actions are not consistent, causing the audience to not understand the director's intention when watching it for the first time.
If Kenshin hadn't revealed the technique of this move later, perhaps the audience wouldn't have known how important this move was.
"It would be nice if there was some system that could give me something like 'possession ability'." Mizukami Hayato secretly complained. If he really had this ability, he designated the ability of "the best martial arts master in the world" Yuan Baye, then But it's the level of "as long as you can think of it, he can design it".
"Huh~ rest, rest~" Mizuna Hayato stretched his body and said.
After practicing for more than an hour, he basically tried out all the moves of the "Flying Sword Style". He even tried out the "Tianxiang Dragon Flash" secret of the Flying Sword Style that would not appear in the first part.
Of course, although "Tianxiang Dragon Flash" has such a handsome name, in the final analysis it is still drawing a sword and slashing. In reality, if he were to move at a normal speed, the audience would not be able to see the mystery at all.
Just like Masami Nagasawa next to me, I just think he is fast.
"Hmm~ I still have to make use of slow play~" After thinking about it a lot, Minami Hayato decided to use the most effective method.
"Slow down?" Masami Nagasawa handed him a bottle of water.
"Yes, Kenshin's sword moves are 'super fast'. If it were shot in real life, it might be over in an instant. How would the audience be happy?"
"That's right." Nagasawa Masami nodded: "It's really uncomfortable to be as fast as you were just now."
Mizuna Hayato almost spat out a mouthful of water, but he was still embarrassed enough: "?"
"What's wrong?" Nagasawa Masami was confused.
"It's nothing, I just thought wrong." Mizuna Hayato wiped the water droplets from the corner of his mouth awkwardly.
"Imagine... you!" Masami Nagasawa reached out and snatched away his water.
"Eh!"
"Stop drinking!"
...
On this day, Mizuno Hayato took Yoshioka Riho and came to Kyoto.
It's not that the little fox assistant is back on duty, but this time "Rurouni Kenshin" will be shot at the Taiqin Film and Television Base in Kyoto and other local areas. The little fox's home is a local snake here, so a visit is a proper courtesy.
"Mizumi-kun, our family is really grateful for your care of our sails." Yoshioka Riho's father said, while her mother served some tea for Minakami Hayato.
"Thank you." Hayato Minazin thanked Yoshioka's mother, and then replied: "No matter where she is, she is good enough and hardworking enough, and she is worthy of us using more resources to cultivate her."
"Besides, Mita-san is one of our own. They are all our own children. We will definitely take good care of them." Hayato Mizukami smiled.
"Who is the child?" Yoshioka Riho complained softly.
"Hey, there's nothing we should or shouldn't do. We should thank you anyway." Speaking of this, Yoshioka's father glanced at his daughter: "At that time, she said she didn't want to be a calligrapher anymore and wanted to learn acting. We also thought about that. It’s okay to let her be frustrated, but it’s unexpected that you are so kind to her.”
"How can any actor who has just debuted get a series of commercials of Nissin's level?" Yoshioka's father is obviously not ignorant.
And it is impossible for him not to know how popular the image of the "little fox" has brought Riho Yoshioka.
"It just happens to be suitable." Mizuna Hayato shook his head.
"How can there be so many coincidences..." Yoshioka's father said meaningfully.
But then he shook his head and asked, "By the way, Mizunami-kun came to Kyoto to make a movie this time?"
"Yes, the crew will gather in a few days." Minato Hayato nodded.
"Whatever we can do, we will do our best to help." Yoshioka's father raised his teacup and said solemnly.
