I’m always asleep whenever he tweets...boo for time differences 😭 Included some relevant comment chains, the commenter is in italic font while Ishida’s responses are regular font.
Translated from Ishida’s side twitter (1/2/3/4):
I want to confirm the inevitability of me creating a story about comparing self against the world.
I want to properly prepare for it if I do so again.
And if I'm making preparations, I want to undertake the research necessary.
I've already accepted the current circumstances, and will make assumptions for it until next time.
I think I've said it before, but I wonder if the world will gradually adapt to this situation and be able to create new jobs and services and such.
I pondered over it yesterday while I was watching Mikasano's YouTube stream yesterday.
I wouldn't exactly call it progress, but I've thought about the title of the manga, the general setting, the pattern of combinations for a few characters (for instance, boss and subordinate, partners, 3-person party, 4-person party...), and an overarching structure of about 15 volumes worth.
This is what’s on my mind.
As for how I'm doing, I've been quietly working on my part for JJ.
It's on display somewhere* if you want to see what it looks like so far...
[T/N: I’m assuming he means the Jack Jeanne gallery here.]
I personally thought you'd try not to get too involved with the world [events]...
But I'd love to see a story about "self versus the world!"
Please take care not to get too consumed by it 🙏🥺
So that's what you're thinking...!
Whenever I create something I'm constantly thinking about the world [events], it's just I usually don't get anxious about it...
I'm sure you watch the news, but I just thought you had no interest in it since I never saw any reactions to world events...that's what I thought.
Comment chain #2 with Mikasano Chuuji, the scriptwriter for the TG anime. Actually, I don’t wanna do the entire conversation since it’s too long but I’ll include this bit from Ishida (X):
At the same time, I came up with all sorts of wild ideas, like an ultra social distance theatre that can be enjoyed with a telescope and earphones, or livestream improv channels.
Can you give even just a single letter of the title lool
“X”
