On August 15th actress Kitagawa Keiko and popular child actress Ashida Mana went to a studio in Tokyo to dub the movie version of �Magic Tree House�. This will be Kitagawa�s first time voice acting and she stated about Ashida Mana, �Mana-chan is such a sweet and lovely girl, when it comes to work she is so focused. I think it�s a bit rude to call her a child actress, I feel she is a professional actress.� It is Ashida�s second time voice acting and she replied with a big smile, �Oh that�s not true.�
Ashida is a big fan of the original animation, she commented on her role as Annie and the troubles of dubbing, �I like adventures. It was fun, since I think I�m a lot like Annie�, �Also, whenever I read �hooray� in the script I would clap my hands together and they kept telling me not to do that.�
Kitagawa also expressed her thoughts on dubbing, �I�m usually in dramas where I can use my body (to act), so it was difficult for me to express things through my voice.�
Ashida answered a few questions from the press, the first question asked her where she would want to go if she had a Magic Tree House. Ashida�s eyes sparkled as she answered, �I want to go to a world that has mammoths and I want to try riding a mammoth. I also want to try eating mammoth meat�. She was also asked what her plans are for summer vacation, �I plan on going to the river and fishing for crayfish. I also like reading books, so I would like to read a book for everyone�.
�Magic Tree House� will hit theaters nationwide on January 7, 2012.
