Previous Main Story Next
Tsumugi“That soul’s radiance is a light that goes beyond thousands of years—a light that illuminates even the bowels of the Earth. It is a galling, accursed heavenly gospel.”
Hisoka
TsumugiHow was it?
Hisoka...I think that was good.
Tsumugi...From your point of view, what kind of a character is Lucifer?
Hisoka...I think he’s lonely.
TsumugiLonely?
HisokaLucifer is obsessed with the soul of a human called Mark. No matter how many times he reincarnates, Lucifer will always get close to his soul.
However, his feelings would always be unrequited and he will never be able to get his hands on Mark’s soul. He will always be separated from his soul.
I’m sure he’s never been able to get rid of the pain since it’s hard to be separated every time.
In the end, he’s left all alone. After his precious one disappears from the world, he has to spend his time alone.
He continues to suffer as long as he lives… His pain is one that will last forever… It must be very hard on him.
Tsumugi...You’re right.
HisokaMy precious one has also died, so I can relate to him. There were also times when I wonder if it’d be better to forget it.
But it’s different now.
Because of that precious one I lost, I’ve come to love such a pain. Because of that person, I’ve decided to continue living along with this pain without erasing it from my mind.
...Did that not make any sense?
TsumugiIt might be so, but… I think what you said may be true.
One’s true feeling is not something that can be distinguished by logic.
Hisoka...Yeah.
TsumugiI have my fellow troupe members, my fellow Winter Troupe members, a childhood friend I grew up together with, my family, my grandma, and Zabby.
Therefore, I don’t know how it really feels to be lonely, how sad it is to be separated from your loved ones. I can’t refer to my own experience to express such feelings…
Is it alright if I use your feelings towards your past to portray Lucifer’s sadness?
HisokaYeah. I’m happy if it can help you...
TsumugiThanks.
HisokaOh, and I’ve just thought of something.
It may be better to express his sadness through actions too, and not only lines.
The way you move right now pays attention to delicacy and beauty, but if you want to express a pain that is so painful your heart is falling apart…
“That soul’s radiance is a light that goes beyond thousands of years—a light that illuminates even the bowels of the Earth. It is a galling, accursed heavenly gospel.”
Tsumugi—.
I can really feel how Lucifer is struggling inside.
Can you teach me how to do that act just now?
HisokaIt may be a little bit different from your usual acting, though…
TsumugiIt’s okay. Through Lucifer, I want to portray something that Tsumugi Tsukioka could have never done before.
I want to take up any challenge.
Hisoka...Got it.
TsumugiThat movement is like a dance, huh.
HisokaTry to put your feelings into your movement… If you do that, you can do it naturally…
TsumugiI see…
Oh, yeah. I’m going to confirm it with the director too.
—.
How was it?
IzumiI think it was really good! Rather than focusing on the lines like before, you’re able to convey his sadness now. And I like how the ambience greatly changed. It was good.
TsumugiIt’s all thanks to Hisoka-kun. I appreciate it.
Hisoka…I’m glad that I could be helpful to you.
IzumiLet’s go with that feeling for the opening scene, then. Maybe we can also make use of that for other scenes.
TsumugiI agree… Though I think we can make the opening scene more intense.
IzumiThere’s no compromise, as expected.
TsumugiYes.
Hisoka...So are you going to hear Azuma’s story tomorrow?
IzumiAzuma-san?
TsumugiI’m thinking of getting some clues for my role…
IzumiI see. Seems like you can learn about the devils’ alluring beauty from him.
TsumugiYeah. Since he has lots of experience in life, I feel like I can learn some views that I’ve never thought of before.
