Q1:What kind of child were you when you were small?
A1: I was pretty introverted.
I always day-dreaming of traveling with space ship and going battle on robot.

Q2: What made you decide to pursue the current career?
A2: When I moved to Tokyo, I was planning to get some job in Tokyo, but I ended up in this field.
Fortunately, I was able to make enough money to live with this job, so I continued.

Q3: What are the characteristics of your drawing?

Q4: Which part of your image do you put the best thought into?
A4: I always hope my works stay in people's memory for a long time.

Q5: Among all of your works, which one do you like the best?
A5: I might be talking about different thing in terms of "favorite", but when I challenged to draw 16-bit image with my maximum creative ability, the feeling of accomplishment for completing that work was something I still remember now.

Q6: What program and software do you use to create your works?
A6: Photoshop 7.0

Q7: What is the ultimate art for you?
A7: I though about it for a while...but I don't think there is a definition for an ultimate art.
Though, if the drawing which I drew for only myself, and if it saves my soul, it could be an ultimate art.

Q8: Which part of the image do you start with? (Such as face line, background, etc)
A8: From eyes, or from face line.

Q9: Do you have any creator or artist you admire?
A9: There are many, but I am too scared to say their name because they are too great.

Q10: Where do you get your inspirations from? (Example: from books, TV, etc)
A10: I get inspiration from anything. When I see some nice scene, I always analyze and try to figure out what elements made me feel the scene nice.

Q11: Do you have a goal in terms of creating works?
A11: I hope there is, but I don't think so.

Q12: What animals do you like?
A12: Dog.

Q13: What is your blood type?
A13: I believe it was A.

Q14: How do you spend your weekends?
A14: There is no difference between weekday and weekend. When I watch weekend TV show on TV, it reminds me the day is a weekend.

Q15: Do you have any sites you check everyday?
A15: I visit around game related and hobby related news sites.

Q16: What is your hobby other than drawing?
A16: I can't say it is my hobby, but I sometimes take short trips.
...though, they somehow end up to be resource for my work.

Q17: Do you have any project you are currently working on?
A17: Within an extent I can say, I am participating in a Doujin software called "narcissu 2nd".
They have an English version too. If you are interested, please take a look.
