Tokyo Animation Studios Headquarters, Elffire City.

It didn't take long for Theo and Aurora to arrive at the studio, after they passed through security, Theo managed to park their car on his usual spot.

"So, what are we going to do today?" Aurora asked as they walked away from the car.

"Well, I'm scheduled to have a meeting with the sound engineering team and the voice actors. You can accompany me through it. I think you'll find it interesting to watch their working process." Theo replied after thinking for a while.

"The voice actors? That does sound interesting." Aurora said with shining eyes.

Just like any other Sakurean, Aurora grew up watching animes, and because of that, she has always been curious about how an anime voice actor worked.

The two siblings chatted as they walked into the studio building, and they soon saw employees coming and going.

Theo greeted everyone with an amiable smile, and everyone greeted them back.

Although there was still some time before studio business hours started, Theo and Aurora were able to see that some people already started working early.

Aurora was awed as she observed how artistic the place was. She saw people drawing all kinds of things, they discussed different opinions with each other with passion, and their focus was evident.

Aurora could feel their passion for the work ahead of them.

The two of them soon arrived at the Sound Studio, where Theo had his first schedule of the day.

Soon after, the two of them arrived in a big conference room where the meeting would occur.

"Good morning, guys!" Theo greeted everyone with a smile as he entered the room.

"Boss!"

"Good morning, boss!"

"..."

Everyone warmly greeted him back, they knew that their boss would finally come back that day, so they were not surprised to see Theo.

Theo soon took a seat beside Ryoko, and Aurora sat beside him.

She looked at everything with curious eyes, and although her brother didn't say anything about how she should act, she figured that she should observe how things happened and talk less.

"How things have been with you guys?" Theo asked as he started chatting with everyone.

Although everyone was a little afraid of Theo, as he was their boss, they managed to chat with no problems. That was because was a very approachable person that didn't put any airs.

They knew that starting that day, Theo would be assuming the direction of the anime production. And as the director, he had the final say in every detail of the anime.

This meant that they had to follow every order from him the best they could, and because they didn't interact much with Theo beforehand, they had to be careful in everything they did.

The time for the meeting soon arrived, and the big screen on the side of the room lit up and showed the image of a room filled with people.

"We're connected with Sakura City." Someone said.

Rio, the voice actors, and the sound engineers were reunited in a conference room at the Sakura City Branch Studio.

Ryoko's voice was heard in the two rooms soon after, "Good morning, everyone!" She said with a gentle smile.

Everyone replied politely soon after she said.

"We're reunited today because the anime director will be assuming the production today." Ryoko explained, "I won't be explaining too much, I'll leave these things to him. Theo, the stage is yours." She said as she smiled at him.

All eyes focused on Theo when Ryoko said that, and what they saw was a young face that exuded calmness and confidence.

No one questioned why Theo looked so young, after working in the studio for a few days they had learned that they couldn't judge things normally in this studio.

Ryoko looked young as well and she was one of the most talented and knowledgeable people they had ever met.

This applied to the people who hadn't met Theo before because the employees that attended a meeting with Theo before knew how Theo possessed an extremely wide range of knowledge.

"Thank you, Ryoko." Theo replied with a smile.

"For those who don't know me, my name is Theodore Gray, and I'll be assuming the direction of the [Sword Art Online] Anime." Theo explained, "Due to some personal reasons, I was only able to free my agenda yesterday. But starting today, I'll be working in the production daily, so we'll be working together every day for the next few months. I'll be counting on every one of you."

The last sentence was said in Yamatese, and when they heard that everyone replied hurriedly in Yamatese as well, "I'll be counting on you."

Theo nodded in approval when he heard that before he continued, "Ryoko informed me that the voice actors started working last week. She said that most of you had managed to find the voice you are most comfortable with. The purpose of this meeting is for me to see if the voice you chose is the most appropriate for your characters. I'll also be inspecting the other things you worked on the past week."

At Sakura City, the voice actors became nervous when they heard that. For the past 10 days, they had been working nonstop to find the best voice, but they didn't know if their choice would be the correct one. It was very common for directors to ask the voice actors to change the voice they chose.

"How about we do a table reading with the voices you chose?" Theo suggested.

What better way to hear the voices than observing during a table reading?

"Yes, boss! I already distributed the scripts to everyone." Rio replied.

"You can start at any time then." Theo replied with a smile.

Just like they did before, Rio would be the narrator for the table reading.

When the voice actors heard that, they closed their eyes and focused their minds on the task ahead of them.

The most experienced ones didn't find it difficult to control their emotions and assume character, but the inexperienced ones like Nana had some trouble with that.

Different from the other times they did the table reading, this time the anime director would be watching them. They had to give their all!

After all, if the director was unsatisfied with their work, he could even fire some of them.

A minute later, Rio received the green light from all the voice actors and she started the table reading soon after.

This table reading was different from the first time they did it last week, as this time they felt much more connected with their characters. So, they didn't simply read the script, they acted just like the characters would.

Theo observed everything with a calm face, his eidetic memory recording each detail of their performance.

Would their act satisfy the anime director?
