"Miracle Lesson" is a documentary program in which professionals active in various fields provide special instruction to Japanese children for about a week. Tanaka, who has brought many characters to life, including the role of Luffy in the anime "ONE PIECE," faced 11 high school students who aspire to become voice actors. What I taught him was not the technique of being a voice actor, but the mindset of an ``actor.'' At first, the students were confused by Tanaka's instruction to ``speak one voice with full heart,'' but gradually they began to realize the difficulty and joy of acting.
