﻿1
00:12:03,848 --> 00:12:08,769
During the anime boom,
animators were, how to put it...

2
00:12:09,145 --> 00:12:12,898
not stars, but something like that.
They were idolized.

3
00:12:13,524 --> 00:12:14,734
I am an animator in my roots.

4
00:12:15,401 --> 00:12:17,903
I started as an animator
and became a director among other things.

5
00:12:17,987 --> 00:12:20,364
Where do you begin creating anime?

6
00:12:20,781 --> 00:12:22,491
People call them good scenes.

7
00:12:22,575 --> 00:12:26,078
You first make scenes
that become the keystones.

8
00:12:27,037 --> 00:12:30,124
For Baki,
that's the fighters' special poses.

9
00:12:31,083 --> 00:12:32,126
Stuff like that.

10
00:12:42,136 --> 00:12:45,097
The best scenes in fighting are the KO's.

11
00:12:45,181 --> 00:12:47,850
It just looks good
when they have a clean execution.

12
00:12:48,434 --> 00:12:51,937
For anime, you first put images
like that in your head.

13
00:12:52,521 --> 00:12:53,773
And build around them.

14
00:12:53,856 --> 00:12:57,818
Since I'm an animator, I first think
about what I want to show the most.

15
00:12:57,902 --> 00:13:00,571
That's kind of how it goes.
After that, I glue everything else to it.

16
00:13:05,534 --> 00:13:09,580
When you're creating film based on manga,

17
00:13:09,663 --> 00:13:12,249
breaking it apart
and rebuilding is the way to go.

18
00:13:12,458 --> 00:13:16,712
But for Baki, we thought about sticking
to the manga. That part was set in stone.

19
00:13:16,796 --> 00:13:19,298
When did you decide to work in anime?

20
00:13:19,381 --> 00:13:21,884
I never wanted to work in anime.

21
00:13:21,967 --> 00:13:24,094
-You never wanted to?
-I wanted to be a manga artist.

22
00:13:24,386 --> 00:13:25,262
Is that so?

23
00:13:30,684 --> 00:13:33,646
So do you often visit Mandarake shops?

24
00:13:33,729 --> 00:13:36,857
I go occasionally,
as TMS is located in Nakano,

25
00:13:36,941 --> 00:13:39,860
and there is a Mandarake shop there.

26
00:13:39,944 --> 00:13:40,986
So it's like a mecca there.

27
00:13:41,070 --> 00:13:45,115
You have the studio,
and the original Mandarake nearby.

28
00:13:45,199 --> 00:13:47,117
-Yes.
-What do you look at while you're there?

29
00:13:47,201 --> 00:13:50,454
Well, I look at the figures
and used books.

30
00:13:50,538 --> 00:13:52,790
You see, there aren't
that many bookstores nowadays.

31
00:13:52,873 --> 00:13:53,707
Indeed.

32
00:13:53,791 --> 00:13:55,918
So for manga, you have to go
to manga shops to buy them.

33
00:13:56,001 --> 00:13:58,003
Or even look at them. So I just have to.

34
00:13:58,879 --> 00:14:01,131
And, the size
of their archives is staggering.

35
00:14:02,299 --> 00:14:04,844
When do you come up with ideas?

36
00:14:04,927 --> 00:14:06,387
Usually in the shower.

37
00:14:08,180 --> 00:14:10,724
Well, when you are,
you can't take notes, can you?

38
00:14:10,808 --> 00:14:13,727
Right. So I hurry out to jot things down.

39
00:14:14,311 --> 00:14:16,689
-Oh, really?
-Yes, or I'd forget.

40
00:14:17,356 --> 00:14:20,568
So you're drawing scenes buck naked...?

41
00:14:20,651 --> 00:14:24,530
Not really. I do dry myself. A quick work
of the towel, then off with the pen.

42
00:14:24,655 --> 00:14:25,489
Rough sketches?

43
00:14:25,573 --> 00:14:29,702
-More like short memos.
-Memos straight out of the shower.

44
00:14:29,785 --> 00:14:31,871
I'm used to being alone.

45
00:14:33,789 --> 00:14:36,166
What was the last word you Googled?

46
00:14:36,250 --> 00:14:37,668
"Netflix."

47
00:14:47,344 --> 00:14:52,850
And now you've become
the director of Baki.

48
00:14:52,933 --> 00:14:56,979
So was it fun drawing Hanayama
for the series?

49
00:14:57,062 --> 00:14:58,606
Hanayama doesn't have much screen time!

50
00:15:07,573 --> 00:15:10,993
If you had to fight against
one of those Death Row inmates,

51
00:15:12,494 --> 00:15:13,954
who would you pick?

52
00:15:14,038 --> 00:15:15,748
I can't fight.
They'd take me down instantly.

53
00:15:15,831 --> 00:15:18,959
What is your favorite line from Baki?

54
00:15:19,043 --> 00:15:20,169
My favorite line from Baki...

55
00:15:20,336 --> 00:15:21,503
"I don't give a fuck."

56
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,166
I'm immortal. Sushi like anime, what?

57
00:17:10,154 --> 00:17:12,364
I'm sure death metal is...

58
00:17:12,698 --> 00:17:17,619
created from an overdrive
of rock elements to the limits.

59
00:17:18,162 --> 00:17:24,418
It's abnormal... something abnormal.

60
00:17:24,501 --> 00:17:28,130
There's something like that
in fashion too. It's called Gothic-Lolita.

61
00:17:29,673 --> 00:17:32,384
Motorcyclists have those choppers.

62
00:17:33,093 --> 00:17:38,265
Every industry has its abnormalities.

63
00:17:38,348 --> 00:17:43,604
Such abnormalities go by their own rules.

64
00:17:43,687 --> 00:17:48,692
They liberate people bound by the mundane.

65
00:17:48,776 --> 00:17:54,782
That's their function in this world.

66
00:18:21,433 --> 00:18:26,522
There's a character in Durarara!!
that talks using a smartphone.

67
00:18:26,605 --> 00:18:29,691
I had thought it was adorable,

68
00:18:29,775 --> 00:18:34,321
so I tried it myself
when the perfect app for that came out.

69
00:18:36,615 --> 00:18:38,992
My previous comment was just a joke.

70
00:18:39,076 --> 00:18:41,703
I use an app because I injured my throat.

71
00:18:42,371 --> 00:18:46,625
I previously recorded my voice
into the app for several hours,

72
00:18:47,167 --> 00:18:50,420
and now the app converts
the typed text into speech for me.

73
00:18:51,296 --> 00:18:53,882
What is Kengan Ashura about?

74
00:18:53,966 --> 00:18:56,510
Disputes and rules between companies

75
00:18:56,593 --> 00:18:59,638
are not fought directly,
legal or otherwise.

76
00:18:59,930 --> 00:19:05,185
Instead, each company hires fighters
who settle things with combat.

77
00:19:05,644 --> 00:19:08,772
It's a very simple story
about violence and politics.

78
00:19:10,232 --> 00:19:13,110
Mr. Kishi first explained to me

79
00:19:13,193 --> 00:19:18,282
that he wanted to create
an entire series from just CG.

80
00:19:19,074 --> 00:19:24,204
Basically, the main component
of Kengan Ashura are the fighters' bodies

81
00:19:24,288 --> 00:19:27,291
so I think it was something like:

82
00:19:27,374 --> 00:19:29,710
"How about we draw muscles
like how we draw armor?"

83
00:19:29,877 --> 00:19:31,044
I was sold.

84
00:19:32,004 --> 00:19:35,924
Mr. Kishi said that when people
were done watching Kengan Ashura,

85
00:19:36,008 --> 00:19:39,094
he didn't want them to think
they watched a CG movie

86
00:19:39,178 --> 00:19:42,014
but feel they watched
an ordinary Japanese anime.

87
00:19:42,097 --> 00:19:43,891
He wanted visual expressions
like regular anime

88
00:19:43,974 --> 00:19:45,434
so nobody would realize that it's CG.

89
00:19:45,517 --> 00:19:48,604
I believe that was his theme.

90
00:19:55,652 --> 00:19:58,322
This series is,
in one word, about fighting.

91
00:19:58,405 --> 00:20:01,200
It's uncommon for animation,
so you could say it's unique.

92
00:20:01,283 --> 00:20:02,534
My inspiration?

93
00:20:03,327 --> 00:20:08,582
They really come to me
when I'm least thinking about it.

94
00:20:08,874 --> 00:20:11,960
I get ideas during everyday life,
like when I'm taking a bath.

95
00:20:12,044 --> 00:20:14,213
Ideas really spring to life
during times like that.

96
00:20:21,220 --> 00:20:22,721
I do work out at the gym.

97
00:20:23,013 --> 00:20:26,683
I do make an effort to go and work out.

98
00:20:29,144 --> 00:20:31,063
Japanese animation is a hand-made 3D art.

99
00:20:31,146 --> 00:20:33,607
That kind of animation
is what the industry has developed into.

100
00:20:34,191 --> 00:20:36,610
So I wanted to try it out for this series.

101
00:20:36,860 --> 00:20:39,154
About whether or not
it's rough for my staff?

102
00:20:39,238 --> 00:20:41,698
Well, it's rough.
It really is tough for them.

103
00:20:41,782 --> 00:20:45,077
They hand-create the art
for each and every frame.

104
00:20:45,244 --> 00:20:48,705
In that aspect, I feel the final project
really screams out "Made in Japan."

105
00:20:49,081 --> 00:20:50,540
I met all the martial artists

106
00:20:50,624 --> 00:20:53,335
who participated for the first time
with this project.

107
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:01,426
We all went to the original Gold's Gym
in Los Angeles one morning.

108
00:21:01,510 --> 00:21:04,179
When we did, we just happened
to meet Schwarzenegger.

109
00:21:04,263 --> 00:21:08,016
We were able to shake hands with him,
and he okayed taking a picture with us.

110
00:21:22,864 --> 00:21:24,449
We went to Anime Expo.

111
00:21:24,533 --> 00:21:27,995
Our director went to Gold's Gym,
and was able to meet Schwarzenegger.

112
00:21:28,245 --> 00:21:29,705
Where were you at the time, Mr. Higa?

113
00:21:29,997 --> 00:21:32,040
At Gold's Gym, obviously!

114
00:21:41,842 --> 00:21:47,681
We actually have real martial artists
fight out the combat scenes on this floor.

115
00:21:47,848 --> 00:21:50,809
We then take their footage as the base
for drawing each frame of CG.

116
00:21:51,101 --> 00:21:54,730
We really had them punching and kicking.

117
00:21:54,980 --> 00:21:58,775
We then controlled the speed
to make it look more awesome.

118
00:21:58,859 --> 00:22:01,778
We're creating the CG by hand.
It's not motion-capture.

119
00:22:02,362 --> 00:22:04,948
We didn't put devices on the fighters
like you do in motion-capture.

120
00:22:05,032 --> 00:22:07,034
We create each combat scene by hand.

121
00:22:07,117 --> 00:22:09,369
That's the director's concept
we're running with.

122
00:22:13,623 --> 00:22:15,417
What I don't like about our director...

123
00:22:15,792 --> 00:22:16,835
Well, he's a bit...

124
00:22:17,502 --> 00:22:20,380
How should I say this? What should I do?

125
00:22:21,423 --> 00:22:23,425
What I don't like
is actually what I love about him.

126
00:22:25,385 --> 00:22:26,636
That man is just insane.

127
00:22:27,804 --> 00:22:29,848
Mr. Kishi really is insane.

128
00:22:30,057 --> 00:22:32,434
So everyone else around him
starts becoming dumber and dumber.

129
00:22:32,934 --> 00:22:34,770
Children are waiting for our anime!

130
00:22:34,853 --> 00:22:36,355
Sorry! Sorry!

131
00:22:43,111 --> 00:22:44,821
Seiji, Seiji! Telephone hello.

132
00:23:24,528 --> 00:23:27,280
Japanese animation,
that is, Toei Animation,

133
00:23:27,656 --> 00:23:34,413
started right after Japan lost the war.
It was based on Disney.

134
00:23:34,913 --> 00:23:38,291
It was a brand-new industry.

135
00:23:38,875 --> 00:23:42,170
It was a way to give kids hope
after losing the war.

136
00:23:42,379 --> 00:23:45,757
That's how Toei Animation began.

137
00:23:58,854 --> 00:24:00,147
Yes, I'll definitely be watching.

138
00:24:00,522 --> 00:24:04,025
I've watched Toei Animation
for a long time.

139
00:24:04,276 --> 00:24:08,113
For example, Slamdunk,
Dragon Ball Z, Digimon.

140
00:24:08,196 --> 00:24:10,240
I do some illustrating myself,

141
00:24:10,824 --> 00:24:15,912
so I watch it like a student would,
for my own drawings.

142
00:24:21,042 --> 00:24:24,296
Since they're making it with CGI

143
00:24:24,921 --> 00:24:28,758
there might be some former fans
who won't be able to accept it,

144
00:24:29,885 --> 00:24:33,597
but the way I see it, it's for the sake
of the younger generation,

145
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,807
so I'm interested to see
how it will turn out.

146
00:24:36,391 --> 00:24:41,229
That's why Toei Animation's
target audience is always kids.

147
00:24:41,688 --> 00:24:44,316
That's why they make anime
that makes them happy.

148
00:24:44,399 --> 00:24:47,110
And that's something
they shouldn't stray from.

149
00:24:47,194 --> 00:24:54,159
I really love the phrase
"Friendship, Effort, Victory."

150
00:24:54,326 --> 00:24:59,289
How to teach that to kids
is where the love in anime is.

151
00:25:05,086 --> 00:25:06,796
Do you have COSMO?

152
00:25:06,922 --> 00:25:10,509
I'm already 70 so it's almost gone,
but it's still there.

153
00:25:11,259 --> 00:25:13,178
When a movie is done,

154
00:25:13,261 --> 00:25:18,934
or when I finish a TV show,
I am liberated from stress.

155
00:25:19,434 --> 00:25:21,311
Until then, I'm a clump of stress.

156
00:25:21,394 --> 00:25:24,981
I'd guess it's the COSMO
that keeps me creating anime.

157
00:25:29,778 --> 00:25:34,449
Saint Seiya! Every young boy is...

158
00:25:34,574 --> 00:25:35,867
Saint Seiya!

159
00:25:41,331 --> 00:25:42,207
Something like this.

160
00:27:31,441 --> 00:27:34,110
When I first heard the melody
for "A Cruel Angel's Thesis,"

161
00:27:34,694 --> 00:27:36,738
I thought,
"Wow, this is such a difficult song!"

162
00:27:43,286 --> 00:27:45,288
I don't know how many times I've sung it,

163
00:27:45,372 --> 00:27:47,374
but I think the count
is in the tens of thousands.

164
00:27:47,791 --> 00:27:51,378
The audience reaction changes
with each country,

165
00:27:51,461 --> 00:27:53,838
but they all sing in Japanese with me.

166
00:27:53,922 --> 00:27:55,965
They surprise me every time.

167
00:27:56,049 --> 00:28:00,679
Today's costume was again designed
by my stylist Chica Hanashima.

168
00:28:00,762 --> 00:28:03,306
-What's your inspiration for the costume?
-This time, it's a queen.

169
00:28:03,598 --> 00:28:04,599
Queen!

170
00:28:26,329 --> 00:28:29,290
I don't make that many phone calls
before concerts,

171
00:28:29,457 --> 00:28:31,876
but if I do, I call my daughter.

172
00:28:34,587 --> 00:28:35,588
Oh, she hung up on me.

173
00:28:40,593 --> 00:28:42,846
My favorite episode in Evangelion
is the final episode.

174
00:28:42,929 --> 00:28:48,852
I like the last episode of Evangelion
despite having mixed reviews.

175
00:28:48,935 --> 00:28:50,603
Everyone has their opinions.

176
00:28:50,687 --> 00:28:53,773
I felt that those scenes
were the most philosophical,

177
00:28:53,857 --> 00:28:59,154
and for me, it felt like an awakening.

178
00:28:59,738 --> 00:29:01,364
That's why I like it.

179
00:29:08,913 --> 00:29:11,916
Philosophy in the song lyrics...

180
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:16,713
I think it depends
on how you interpret them.

181
00:29:16,796 --> 00:29:20,967
In my head, the part,
"Young man, become a myth" ultimately...

182
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,180
feels very profound as I sing it.

183
00:29:31,352 --> 00:29:33,605
Well, I'd like to call my manager now.

184
00:29:34,189 --> 00:29:35,023
Hello?

185
00:29:38,777 --> 00:29:40,487
Where are you now?

186
00:29:41,154 --> 00:29:41,988
I'm outside.

187
00:29:42,989 --> 00:29:44,783
Where is outside?

188
00:29:45,325 --> 00:29:47,368
Eh? Outside is outside.

189
00:29:47,452 --> 00:29:48,995
Do your best in the actual performance.

190
00:29:49,078 --> 00:29:50,747
Yup, I'll do my best!

191
00:29:51,498 --> 00:29:53,208
-Bye. Take care.
-Thank you. Bye.

192
00:30:05,553 --> 00:30:09,265
I never wanted to be
a professional singer.

193
00:30:10,266 --> 00:30:12,602
I get extremely nervous
before going on-stage.

194
00:30:51,850 --> 00:30:53,309
Doraemon.

195
00:30:53,393 --> 00:30:54,853
Aikatsu Friends.

196
00:30:54,936 --> 00:30:56,604
Pretty Cure!

197
00:31:48,698 --> 00:31:49,782
So cute!

198
00:31:53,453 --> 00:31:54,829
Such a big head!

199
00:31:56,706 --> 00:31:59,375
There are rumors that there's an old guy
inside Rilakkuma.

200
00:31:59,459 --> 00:32:00,627
Those are just rumors, right?

201
00:32:00,710 --> 00:32:03,963
I've heard people say
it might be Kaoru's father inside.

202
00:32:04,047 --> 00:32:06,341
Rumors, right?

203
00:32:20,563 --> 00:32:24,108
This is how we go about creating
stop-motion animation.

204
00:32:24,901 --> 00:32:28,404
The first thing we have to do is

205
00:32:28,488 --> 00:32:31,032
assemble everything
that appears on camera.

206
00:32:31,115 --> 00:32:35,328
First we make the puppets,
create the artwork, create the rooms,

207
00:32:35,411 --> 00:32:37,830
in this case, create the puppets
for Rilakkuma and the humans.

208
00:32:37,914 --> 00:32:40,833
And then, we start moving the puppets.

209
00:32:45,004 --> 00:32:48,633
As for how long it takes
to create stop-motion animation--

210
00:32:48,716 --> 00:32:54,430
It takes a whole day for a single animator
to shoot 10 seconds.

211
00:32:55,932 --> 00:32:59,018
I love the zipper on Rilakkuma's back.

212
00:33:07,110 --> 00:33:10,613
The reason why Kaoru needs Rilakkuma

213
00:33:11,114 --> 00:33:17,620
is because he's so soft and warm,
and I think she can't give him up.

214
00:33:19,122 --> 00:33:23,626
I don't think
that Kaoru's really struggling in life.

215
00:33:24,002 --> 00:33:27,255
I think there's a time
when every one of us

216
00:33:27,338 --> 00:33:29,799
feels like nothing's going right.

217
00:33:29,882 --> 00:33:34,679
So, I think it goes to show
that Kaoru is just normal,

218
00:33:34,762 --> 00:33:36,848
like the rest of us.

219
00:33:37,515 --> 00:33:40,768
I think it's important to take it easy

220
00:33:40,852 --> 00:33:43,354
because if you keep yourself too busy,

221
00:33:43,771 --> 00:33:48,735
you might end up forgetting
to be nice to others.

222
00:33:49,068 --> 00:33:54,032
If you don't relax,
food won't taste that good anymore.

223
00:34:04,208 --> 00:34:07,503
Sweet dumplings? I love sweet dumplings.

224
00:34:07,587 --> 00:34:09,338
My favorites are the ones

225
00:34:09,422 --> 00:34:13,885
in a sweet-and-salty glaze
of soy sauce and sugar.

226
00:34:13,968 --> 00:34:17,055
Those soy sauce ones
are my favorites, too.

227
00:34:17,138 --> 00:34:19,140
I would love some. May I?

228
00:34:20,475 --> 00:34:22,769
Please bring me some yummy dumplings, too.

229
00:34:31,194 --> 00:34:36,699
In the script, we included the main events
from each month

230
00:34:36,783 --> 00:34:41,996
celebrated in Japan from April to March.

231
00:34:42,663 --> 00:34:44,707
About the seasons,

232
00:34:44,791 --> 00:34:51,547
we calculated the sun's position
over 12 months to create the lighting.

233
00:34:51,631 --> 00:34:55,093
We also used snow and cherry blossoms
to illustrate the seasons.

234
00:34:58,262 --> 00:35:02,517
I wanted everyone to be able
to relate to her.

235
00:35:02,892 --> 00:35:07,063
This was the first time we used
stop-motion animation

236
00:35:07,230 --> 00:35:12,276
so I knew we could do things
that we never could with live-action

237
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:17,240
so I wanted to let my imagination
run wild... to explode.

238
00:35:17,323 --> 00:35:21,244
And have it lead me
to a totally different world.

239
00:36:32,940 --> 00:36:37,737
The name "Rarecho"
is from my amateur days.

240
00:36:37,820 --> 00:36:43,159
I was using it as my internet screen-name.
It doesn't really mean anything.

241
00:36:43,451 --> 00:36:45,870
It's something I randomly came up with.

242
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:50,541
And now that I'm 46,
the fact that I still go by that name...

243
00:36:51,626 --> 00:36:54,086
does make me think,
"Well, isn't this a problem!"

244
00:37:03,554 --> 00:37:08,100
I am the character designer,

245
00:37:09,018 --> 00:37:13,439
who chooses how characters look
and how they act in Aggretsuko.

246
00:37:16,067 --> 00:37:19,528
I'm wearing this mask because...

247
00:37:19,987 --> 00:37:21,113
I'm a bit shy.

248
00:37:29,330 --> 00:37:31,332
When I first made my presentation
to Sanrio,

249
00:37:31,666 --> 00:37:34,919
instead of voicing everything myself
like I usually do,

250
00:37:35,002 --> 00:37:39,257
I asked my wife
to voice the lead female instead.

251
00:37:39,340 --> 00:37:42,468
Sanrio fell in love with her voice
and wanted her in the cast.

252
00:37:42,551 --> 00:37:45,137
I was like, "Really? Seriously?
We're doing this?"

253
00:37:45,221 --> 00:37:46,764
My name is Retsuko.

254
00:37:48,224 --> 00:37:51,602
25-years-old and single.
A Scorpio, blood-type A.

255
00:37:53,396 --> 00:37:57,233
Retsuko is made of many people's stories.

256
00:37:57,984 --> 00:38:02,488
She is a mixture of several people I know.

257
00:38:04,448 --> 00:38:07,368
An example of inspiration
from experience...

258
00:38:07,451 --> 00:38:11,747
Take the story where Retsuko went to work,
wearing her sandals in episode one.

259
00:38:11,831 --> 00:38:13,666
I've done that several times already.

260
00:38:16,377 --> 00:38:18,963
This was how Retsuko started out.

261
00:38:19,297 --> 00:38:26,012
Director Gori and Washimi
were much more realistic.

262
00:38:26,804 --> 00:38:31,517
My body wasn't made to sing death metal.
It's been a struggle.

263
00:38:33,311 --> 00:38:38,941
I started singing because
I didn't know anyone I could ask.

264
00:38:39,358 --> 00:38:41,861
So I thought,
"Oh, well, guess I'll do it myself."

265
00:38:42,194 --> 00:38:45,740
I Googled how, and practiced for a month.

266
00:38:47,742 --> 00:38:53,122
"Death voice" isn't made for microphones
like these.

267
00:38:57,126 --> 00:38:58,210
Tea.

268
00:38:58,919 --> 00:39:00,087
Excuse me?

269
00:39:00,671 --> 00:39:02,715
Why Death Metal?

270
00:39:03,132 --> 00:39:06,802
When my friend grunted while griping
it sounded like death metal.

271
00:39:06,886 --> 00:39:12,016
So, I thought death metal
would fit right in.

272
00:39:12,475 --> 00:39:15,061
That's why Retsuko started singing.

273
00:39:15,144 --> 00:39:18,481
The themes in Aggretsuko,

274
00:39:18,939 --> 00:39:22,526
like when Retsuko
gets sick of serving tea,

275
00:39:22,610 --> 00:39:28,199
have been in Japanese comedy
for the past three decades.

276
00:39:28,282 --> 00:39:32,286
I was surprised people overseas
found it funny.

277
00:39:32,370 --> 00:39:36,874
But, then, with the recent #MeToo movement

278
00:39:36,957 --> 00:39:42,380
perhaps the world hasn't evolved
as much as I had thought.

279
00:39:42,671 --> 00:39:46,342
It's part of your job, too.
For the women, that is!

280
00:39:50,721 --> 00:39:54,642
Shitty boss!

281
00:40:00,815 --> 00:40:03,025
If I had free time...

282
00:40:05,444 --> 00:40:06,737
I would like to sleep.

283
00:40:07,863 --> 00:40:10,699
Last thing I Googled?
I think that would be an "ego-search."

284
00:40:10,866 --> 00:40:11,700
My own name.

285
00:40:12,368 --> 00:40:17,748
But, well, since you can skip intros
and endings on Netflix,

286
00:40:18,165 --> 00:40:20,000
not many people know who I am.

287
00:40:30,219 --> 00:40:34,390
End of the world Karaoke all alone
Heal all the pain from my office job

288
00:40:40,855 --> 00:40:43,107
Choke on my rage!

289
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:50,674
7SEEDS is about a world
where humans went extinct

290
00:41:51,008 --> 00:41:52,426
from catastrophic natural disasters.

291
00:42:04,772 --> 00:42:11,403
The connection between the world of 7SEEDS
and our own?

292
00:42:11,487 --> 00:42:13,531
Actually, the conditions are different,

293
00:42:13,614 --> 00:42:19,119
but I feel similar things are happening
in our world and their world.

294
00:42:19,370 --> 00:42:21,872
During the creative process,

295
00:42:21,956 --> 00:42:25,793
as we draw out
how the protagonists behave,

296
00:42:26,335 --> 00:42:29,922
and as I'm directing their movements,
it felt like this was actually present day

297
00:42:30,005 --> 00:42:34,552
and that their situation was similar
to the one that we've been put into.

298
00:42:45,187 --> 00:42:49,650
I think it's a great series
with characters that stand out.

299
00:42:49,733 --> 00:42:52,278
7SEEDS is a really interesting series!

300
00:42:52,361 --> 00:42:54,029
I really love 7SEEDS!

301
00:42:54,113 --> 00:42:56,073
7SEEDS is so interesting! It's the best!

302
00:42:57,241 --> 00:42:58,450
7SEEDS!

303
00:42:59,034 --> 00:43:03,581
The reason why 7SEEDS
is so popular among females

304
00:43:03,664 --> 00:43:08,502
is because each female character
is powerful in different ways

305
00:43:08,586 --> 00:43:12,172
and the male characters can be either kind
or strong.

306
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:16,135
I believe each character is very appealing
in their own way.

307
00:43:18,220 --> 00:43:22,016
The meaning of "7SEEDS"
is literally that of seven seeds.

308
00:43:22,099 --> 00:43:27,479
Each of the boys and girls
sent to the future is a "seed."

309
00:43:27,563 --> 00:43:30,983
Where 7SEEDS differs
from other girls' manga is how,

310
00:43:31,066 --> 00:43:34,111
unlike most girls' manga
that focus on romance,

311
00:43:34,194 --> 00:43:35,904
this series takes a different approach

312
00:43:35,988 --> 00:43:39,533
and talks about a deeper theme
of survival.

313
00:43:47,207 --> 00:43:50,044
If I was not a part
of the animation industry

314
00:43:50,127 --> 00:43:53,255
I believe I would be
doing something related to astronomy.

315
00:44:09,772 --> 00:44:12,733
I used to want to be a chef.

316
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,613
I think I'd be really good at it.

317
00:44:18,197 --> 00:44:20,741
If I wasn't in the animation business?

318
00:44:21,033 --> 00:44:22,409
That's a very dangerous question.

319
00:44:49,311 --> 00:44:56,110
Since I was a student,
I'd be working 20 hours straight every day

320
00:44:56,193 --> 00:44:58,445
making movies
while running myself into the ground.

321
00:44:58,529 --> 00:45:04,410
Creating anything in film
turns you into a clump of stress.

322
00:45:04,827 --> 00:45:08,455
If I had free time,
I'd sleep six hours a day.

323
00:45:11,959 --> 00:45:14,169
If I had free time...

324
00:45:16,547 --> 00:45:17,631
I would like to sleep.

325
00:45:19,007 --> 00:45:20,259
Your next step?

326
00:45:23,011 --> 00:45:24,388
To live an easy life?

327
00:45:58,046 --> 00:46:00,966
When I was singing Ultraman's song
for my son,

328
00:46:01,049 --> 00:46:03,051
he asked me, "What's that song?"

329
00:46:03,135 --> 00:46:07,055
I said this is Ultraman's song.
Then, he started loving Ultraman.

330
00:46:07,848 --> 00:46:10,559
We watched old series and new series.

331
00:46:10,642 --> 00:46:13,228
We both love Ultraman. Ultraman pose.

332
00:46:15,689 --> 00:46:18,233
I used to want to design cars.

333
00:46:20,611 --> 00:46:27,034
I think I'd like to have done that
for a living.

334
00:46:32,623 --> 00:46:37,878
The first thing I ever directed
was Madox 01.

335
00:46:37,961 --> 00:46:44,468
It was a short, 40 minutes
Original Video Animation, OVA.

336
00:46:47,179 --> 00:46:51,141
The first show I directed
was Patlabor Minimum.

337
00:46:51,225 --> 00:46:56,271
These short movies that accompany
the OP for a show called Patlabor.

338
00:46:56,355 --> 00:46:59,775
I did hand-drawn animation for decades.

339
00:46:59,942 --> 00:47:01,318
Then something came along

340
00:47:01,401 --> 00:47:04,071
that would bring out both our designs
and worldviews even more.

341
00:47:04,154 --> 00:47:10,494
Like computer graphics.
It was all over the news,

342
00:47:10,577 --> 00:47:15,499
and I thought,
"This is the way to go from now on."

343
00:47:15,582 --> 00:47:18,293
Without a doubt, that would be
the first APPLESEED movie.

344
00:47:18,377 --> 00:47:22,506
It was my first time using motion capture,

345
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:24,883
and rendering everything in 3DCG.

346
00:47:24,967 --> 00:47:28,762
I think I've been involved with
Ghost in the Shell the longest.

347
00:47:29,054 --> 00:47:31,640
There were two series, after all.

348
00:47:31,723 --> 00:47:34,768
I also made
one feature-length theatrical film.

349
00:47:34,852 --> 00:47:40,566
Eden of the East
was my first completely original title.

350
00:47:40,649 --> 00:47:45,779
One of the films that I spent
a lot of time on was Captain Harlock,

351
00:47:45,863 --> 00:47:47,948
a full CG film.

352
00:47:48,031 --> 00:47:54,454
I think it took more than five years
to complete.

353
00:47:56,540 --> 00:48:00,002
I don't remember all the details,

354
00:48:00,085 --> 00:48:04,882
but I think Mr. Aramaki initially wanted
to create

355
00:48:04,965 --> 00:48:08,552
a different Ghost in the Shell series.

356
00:48:08,635 --> 00:48:10,554
It was at a party,

357
00:48:10,637 --> 00:48:13,640
and producer Ishikawa
happened to be sitting next to me.

358
00:48:13,724 --> 00:48:16,351
I thought I'd just ask him
for the heck of it,

359
00:48:16,435 --> 00:48:17,477
since he was right there.

360
00:48:17,561 --> 00:48:19,938
So, it was decided that Mr. Aramaki and I

361
00:48:20,022 --> 00:48:22,566
would make
a Ghost in the Shell series together.

362
00:48:23,233 --> 00:48:29,031
But, we were both directing
other projects,

363
00:48:29,114 --> 00:48:35,037
and we couldn't get started right away,

364
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:41,084
but there was another project
in the works.

365
00:48:41,293 --> 00:48:46,882
It was Ultraman and they offered it to us.

366
00:48:56,350 --> 00:48:58,060
Since we're both from the generation

367
00:48:58,143 --> 00:49:00,312
that grew up watching
the first Ultraman shows,

368
00:49:01,021 --> 00:49:03,273
we were both really passionate about it.

369
00:49:03,357 --> 00:49:06,693
In terms of visuals, sure...

370
00:49:08,111 --> 00:49:12,783
jaw-dropping action scenes
are great and all,

371
00:49:12,866 --> 00:49:16,578
but since the CG is motion capture-based

372
00:49:16,662 --> 00:49:22,209
the humans look more human

373
00:49:22,292 --> 00:49:25,337
as well as more raw.

374
00:49:25,420 --> 00:49:30,425
It's that fusion of human rawness
and anime's deformé style

375
00:49:30,509 --> 00:49:35,097
that I want to pursue to the limit.

376
00:50:06,336 --> 00:50:13,051
I really can't stand the repetitive tasks.
I wish we could use computers

377
00:50:13,135 --> 00:50:14,177
for all of that.

378
00:50:30,402 --> 00:50:34,448
3DCG involves numerous processes

379
00:50:34,573 --> 00:50:39,494
and elements to produce visuals.

380
00:50:39,911 --> 00:50:43,540
Now, I'd like to explain each process
to you.

381
00:50:47,002 --> 00:50:50,505
This is part of an animatic.

382
00:50:50,797 --> 00:50:56,595
This raw data allows us to experiment
so we can figure out

383
00:50:56,678 --> 00:50:59,598
how we can create the powerful scenes
we have in our heads.

384
00:50:59,681 --> 00:51:02,601
Then, you start the modeling process.

385
00:51:11,693 --> 00:51:14,905
I wanted the fist to get smashed more
and sink into the flesh.

386
00:51:15,238 --> 00:51:19,201
And I wanted the place where it landed
to bulge out here.

387
00:51:20,077 --> 00:51:22,662
This is an effect.

388
00:51:22,746 --> 00:51:27,000
Here you can see the impact of the punch
is so powerful

389
00:51:27,084 --> 00:51:32,756
the steam inside this muscle
is leaking out.

390
00:51:32,839 --> 00:51:34,633
I really want it to come out from
the crack,

391
00:51:34,716 --> 00:51:38,553
but it would be so much work
to make it come out from the crack.

392
00:51:38,637 --> 00:51:40,263
So, the steam emerges from the surface.

393
00:51:40,764 --> 00:51:42,849
You can tell
that we're cheating this shot.

394
00:51:45,894 --> 00:51:47,145
As for the lighting,

395
00:51:47,437 --> 00:51:52,109
the reason I have so much light
hitting the ring

396
00:51:52,192 --> 00:51:57,656
is because I wanted to create a sense
of flashing during the characters' fight.

397
00:51:57,739 --> 00:52:02,202
The characters' emotions are linked
to the color of the light.

398
00:52:02,744 --> 00:52:06,206
I was hung up on using the flashing

399
00:52:06,289 --> 00:52:10,252
in an effective way.

400
00:52:11,086 --> 00:52:16,550
My goal isn't so much about
reproducing Japan's anime in 3DCG.

401
00:52:16,716 --> 00:52:19,219
But, rather, I'd like to take
the American comics, graphic novels,

402
00:52:19,302 --> 00:52:21,179
bandes dessinées that I love so much...

403
00:52:22,180 --> 00:52:26,017
and find a way to somehow set them
in motion in that style.

404
00:52:26,101 --> 00:52:28,436
That's my goal.

405
00:52:31,189 --> 00:52:36,486
A director has three jobs.
Three truly basic jobs:

406
00:52:36,570 --> 00:52:41,366
To have a vision. To choose. To decide.

407
00:52:54,087 --> 00:52:55,881
-Name?

408
00:52:55,964 --> 00:52:57,841

00:52:57,924 --> 00:52:59,467

410
00:52:59,801 --> 00:53:02,220
-Dislikes?
-Getting older.

411
00:53:16,193 --> 00:53:18,320
What did you eat for lunch?

412
00:53:19,279 --> 00:53:21,239
-I haven't eaten.
-Why is that?

413
00:53:21,323 --> 00:53:22,449
Because I don't have time.

414
00:53:23,074 --> 00:53:25,327
-Who do you work for?
-For myself.

415
00:53:25,410 --> 00:53:28,747
-How did you get here?
-By car.

416
00:53:29,372 --> 00:53:31,333
-Any pets?
-No.

417
00:53:31,875 --> 00:53:33,335
-Dogs or cats?
-Dogs.

418
00:53:33,418 --> 00:53:34,961
-Favorite food?
-Crabs.

419
00:53:35,045 --> 00:53:38,673
-How long have you lived here? Same place?
-Forty years.

420
00:53:38,757 --> 00:53:40,050
-Favorite color?

421
00:53:40,133 --> 00:53:42,510
-Favorite movie?
-Ghostbusters.

422
00:53:42,844 --> 00:53:44,679
-Where are we?
-I.G.

423
00:53:45,138 --> 00:53:46,056
What is your job?

424
00:53:47,724 --> 00:53:49,142
Your first anime title?

425
00:53:49,226 --> 00:53:50,143
Kill Bill.

426
00:53:50,435 --> 00:53:52,479
Number of anime titles you have produced?

427
00:53:52,562 --> 00:53:53,813
Over 20.

428
00:53:53,897 --> 00:53:55,523
Your favorite among them?

429
00:53:56,191 --> 00:53:57,108
B: The Beginning.

430
00:54:10,121 --> 00:54:11,248
Who do you respect?

431
00:54:12,457 --> 00:54:14,668
Who do I respect?

432
00:54:20,465 --> 00:54:21,383
My father.

433
00:54:23,093 --> 00:54:24,636
Where does your inspiration come from?

434
00:54:25,512 --> 00:54:27,138
The brains of other people.

435
00:54:28,348 --> 00:54:30,058
What does your family think
about your job?

436
00:54:30,141 --> 00:54:31,351
They take pride in it.

437
00:54:31,768 --> 00:54:33,186
What was the last thing you Googled?

438
00:54:33,561 --> 00:54:34,521
Stan Lee.

439
00:54:36,314 --> 00:54:38,149
The hardest project you worked on?

440
00:54:40,986 --> 00:54:41,945
Kill Bill.

441
00:54:45,156 --> 00:54:46,283
Your favorite author?

442
00:54:46,658 --> 00:54:48,702
My favorite author? William Burroughs.

443
00:54:49,202 --> 00:54:50,412
Your ultimate goal?

444
00:54:51,329 --> 00:54:52,998
Going to heaven.

445
00:54:53,081 --> 00:54:55,375
-Your next step?
-To live an easy life.

446
00:54:55,458 --> 00:54:58,378
-Should we be worried?
-I don't think you need to be worried.

447
00:54:58,461 --> 00:55:00,422
-Are you Keith?
-I am not.

448
00:55:00,505 --> 00:55:02,507
-Are you Koku?
-I am not.

449
00:55:02,590 --> 00:55:04,926
-Are you Killer B?
-I am not.

450
00:55:05,010 --> 00:55:06,803
What is the climactic moment in season 2?

451
00:55:08,096 --> 00:55:09,264
I cannot tell you.

452
00:55:43,548 --> 00:55:47,469
I get ideas during everyday life
like when I'm taking a bath.

453
00:55:48,053 --> 00:55:49,512
Bath time.

454
00:55:50,597 --> 00:55:52,432
It can be when I'm in the bath...

455
00:55:52,515 --> 00:55:54,225
Usually in the shower.

456
00:55:54,309 --> 00:55:59,939
They hit me at all times,
like when I'm taking a walk.

457
00:56:00,023 --> 00:56:01,900
The commute home.

458
00:56:03,026 --> 00:56:05,153
...or just strolling around the area.

459
00:56:05,487 --> 00:56:09,616
Ideas don't pick a place or time.
