Synopsis
A word from Artist Natsuki Takaya
“First of all, I’d like to offer my sincere congratulations to the staff for bringing us to this announcement day.
Natsuki Takaya
I may be the manga author, but at the same time, I’m only the manga author.
So I think this announcement is a long-awaited recognition of the efforts of all of those directly involved in the anime’s production, and that’s a relief to me.
As for how I felt when I was first approached about this new series, to be perfectly frank, my reaction was, “What?!”
As for the reason why, well… It’s a bit of a long story… It’s a personal thing that goes back to when I reached my 20th year as a professional artist.“
