Chapter 172. Cow Dung Head s Duty and Harasses I Office Workers
---
Yes, while some details differ, the essence remains.
Josuke Higashikata, that cow dung head, dragging his group of panions like Kishibe Rohan to trouble these hard-w office workers is, indeed, a case of a cow dung head ing his duties and harassing i office workers.
Especially sidering that before this, Pucci had already roped Kira Yoshikage, a fellow resident of Araki's Manor, into the produ crew.
The roles line up perfectly now, making it incredibly immersive!
"So, this arduous task falls on you, Kira."
Pucci cpped Kira Yoshikage on the shoulder, fog everyone's attention on Kira, who had been diligently trying to live an ordinary life. With Kira looking utterly bewildered, Pucci spoke in a heartfelt tone, "After all, among us, you're the one who most resembles a typical office worker."
"Huh?!"
Kira Yoshikage was stunned.
Despite trying his best to avoid notice, he couldn't uand why he still attracted attention. He made the same fused sound Pucci had made earlier.
Wait, what?
Were we even talking about this topic before?!
Or had he lowered his presenuch that his memory of the versation also dimmed?!
Clearly, only he seemed to find something wrong with the situation. Everyone else carried on the versation as if nothing were amiss: "I get it! Director Pucci means that he wants them to py their roles as naturally as possible, right?"
"If it's about pying their roles naturally, then sure, among the people the president has gathered, we do have individuals from various fields, but..."
"But no one likes a bnd story, and among these actors pying their natural roles, there aren't any jobs that particurly stand out, right?"
Pucci voiced the staff member's .
He tinued, "Normally, that's true. But what if I told you that Part 4 of JoJo isn't like "Stardust Crusaders", a road movie, nor is it a hot-blooded adveory like "Phantom Blood" or "Battle Tendency", but rather, a situational edy?"
High school students, bikers, milk delivery men, guitarists, chefs, beautis, ic artists...
If we view these newly hired actors through the lens of traditional performers, it's only natural that people would question the odd professions they e from.
And they'd probably arrive at the clusion, "What the heck is all this?"
Even if we're aiming for authenticity, having these etric actors pying roles that reflect their actual professions still requires a plot that makes their jobs relevant.
Otherwise, what's the differeween casting any random person for an unimportant role and hiring a professional?
No one would notice them anyway.
But what if this were a situational edy?
A show set within a siy, where people live their lives, enter each other, and experience various stories?
Then these actors, pying their natural roles, wouldn't just be backgrouras.
They'd bee key characters, triggering oorylier another!
Having them py themselves would be perfect!
In fact, if they weren't pying themselves, they wouldn't be able to capture that feeling at all!
But sihis is already Part 4 of "JoJo", surely this Part 4 will i the Ripple teiques from earlier works or the Stand system from the previous part.
Imagine a group of Ripple warriors or Stand users starring in a situational edy set in a small town...
It's like martial arts experts abandoning their duty to fight evil and save the world, instead quietly colleg rent from other martial arts experts... It might seem like they're filming "72 Tenants" rather than "Kung Fu".
"This obviously isn't an ordinary sit," Pucci said.
So of course, the Axe Gang or something like that would still be necessary.
But the Axe Gang is a bit extreme.
They could to down, maybe to something more... gentle.
"Have any of you seen aionally heavy works?" Pucci asked.
"I've seen a few..."
Though they didn't uand why Pucci was suddenly switg topics, many staff members raised their hands to respond.
"So, when you watch these emotional works without knowing their genre, don't you often find the story rather heartwarming at first?" Pucci asked.
"Kind of... I guess...?"
The staff members answered uainly.
"What do you mean, 'kind of'? Of course it's heartwarming!" Pucci said, dissatisfied with their vague answers. "If the story doesn't start out warm and fuzzy, how do you think it's going to trick you into feeling safe before the iable tragedy hits?!"
In this area, Pucci, with his memories of a past life, was quite experienced.
Take "Puel Magi Madoka Magica" for example, a cssic that established the 'Three-Episode Rule'.
In its first three episodes, wasn't it portrayed as a sweet magical girl story?
Before knowing who the writer was, who could've imagined how devastating it would get ter on?!
"versely, when you're watg a work full of daily life ses, could you ever imagi turning out to be a suspenseful detective story?"
"Or to take it further, imagine you're living your ordinary life with family and friends, believing everything is normal, while in the room over, a murder is taking pce silently. The victim is desperately g out for help, but no sound escapes… How would that make you feel?"
"Huh?!"
The same "huh," but with a different meaning.
Where they had once found Pucci's words inprehensible, and Cujoh Jolyne's pns meaningless, now it was like a match had been stru oil, setting their thoughts abze in a single explosive moment.
"Director Pucci, are you suggesting..."
"My name is Kira Yoshikage. I'm 25 years old. I live in the northeast part of Morioh, in a vil district, and I'm unmarried. I work at the Green Dolphin Studio, and I make sure to return home han 8 PM. I don't smoke, and I only drink in moderation."
Ign the staff's reas, Pucci tinued, his voice calm and indifferent: "At night, I make sure to get eight hours of sleep. Before bed, I drink a warm gss of milk and do 20 minutes of stretg, which helps me sleep soundly until m."
"Like a baby, I wake up pletely refreshed without any stress or fatigue. This is how I start my day."
"That… is all I know about Kira Yoshikage."
