I was really quite nervous when I started drawing “Chronicle of Char and Sayla” as I was to depict parts of the story which had previously remained untold. I believe I am still very capable of contributing in those areas. On the other hand, some aspects of it remain mostly unchanged. It is now completely digital, and full of surprises and curious things for me. I thus thought that if it were going to be animated as an OVA, I might be able to get involved, and decided to take on tasks such as main character design and storyboarding.ĭuring my long absence from the anime world, animation production had become very different. As such, it is the part to which I feel most strongly attached. “Chronicle of Char and Sayla” which is now being animated, is a “prequel” to the foundational “MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM” (First Gundam), and is also a completely original part of “MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM THE ORIGIN”. Through the production of “MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM THE ORIGIN,” I became involved with anime again for the first time in 25 years – a quarter-century.
