Translation credit thanks to onkei and With the Will forums ! ( POSSIBLY THE MOST IMPORTANT BIT[S] OF THIS INTERVIEW ):
“ Since their world in 2028 is already depicted in the last episode of "02," we think of that [last episode] as the end goal while adding in details of what else could have happened before arriving there. ”
“ We were able to apply ideas to the theme that we had all discussed and agreed on together. Since the main audience who will watch, and who we want it to be watched by, are adults now, we wanted to make a story that would encourage those people to wake up the next day and keep trying. I remember that we wanted [the movie] to have the message of “ let’s keep living strongly . ” ”
