| + | Q: Regarding the teaser poster for "Black Iron Submarine", in the rough drawing stage, Kuroda and Rum are depicted in the current position of Akai and Amuro, and there were some faces that looked like Inspector Shiratori and Detective Sato, but are they really important enough to be depicted in the original teaser? Also, why do the members of the organization have one eye closed or hidden in the final version of the poster?<br> | ||
Aoyama: That's right. When I first drew it, I thought there were too many characters (laughs), and I thought it would be too much of a hassle (laughs), so I narrowed it down. At first I drew Kuroda and Rum, but I thought that Akai and Amuro should take those prominent positions. Also, the inclusion of Professor (Agasa) was at the director's request. When I added Professor in as a request, Director Tachikawa replied, "Thank you very much for including him." Well, the thing about keeping one eye closed is that back then, keeping one eye closed was pretty popular (laughs), but it doesn't mean that much (laughs). | Aoyama: That's right.

| + | |||
| + | Q: I love Ai-chan, so please tell us about the highlights of this year's theater version regarding Ai from your point of view as far as you can say.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Highlights? The scene that I storyboarded. That's the highlight. Look forward to the amazing scene at the end (laughs). Isn't it too much? Is it alright? (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q: Conan movies often have explosion scenes, but is there anything you would like it exploded in future movies?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahahaha (laughs) Well, I think it's good to think that various things that come out will probably explode (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q: Please tell us the story (behind the scenes) of the movie “The Bride of Halloween".<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: That? Well, I wonder what happened this year. You suddenly ask me (laughs) I wonder what it is (laughs) "The Bride of Halloween", right? Hmm? I wonder. Even if you suddenly ask, I wouldn't be able to think of it... I wonder what it is. Hmm. There's definitely something...<br> | ||
| + | (Aoyama goes to the edge of stage for consultation)<br> | ||
| + | (audience laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah, there was a scene where Kazami tries to defuse the bomb on Amuro's neck, but it was cut because the movie duration was too long (laughs) That's about it? | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | (last question finished)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, I might forget that I said I'd think about it (laughs), so please don't get your hopes up too high (laughs) | ||

| + | '''Question by junior high school students and under:'''<br> | ||
| + | Q. Please tell us your favorite anime other than Conan and your favorite voice actor.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I wonder now, I like “SPY x FAMILY”. I like Anya (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: You like cute girls, don't you (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Her voice actress was in "Black Iron Submarine", right? (Atsumi Tanezaki, who played Naomi Argento) It was a completely different role though.<br> | ||
| + | MC: Voice actors can do a variety of voices | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. How can I draw well?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Imitate your favorite manga and illustrations over and over again, and just keep imitating and drawing. At first. I think if you draw over and over again, you'll probably get good at it. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Which case in Conan has left the biggest impression on you?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Case? Well, the one that comes to mind is definitely the one at Kiyomizu-dera... where Ran kisses on the cheek...<br> | ||
| + | MC: Big case? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: It's a big case (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Has Ai Haibara's birthday been decided?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: No, it's still undecided (laughs). Well, I think it'll be decided when the birthday episode comes... but it's not decided yet (laughs). Sorry (laughs). | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | '''General questions:'''<br> | ||
| + | Q. Do you have any plans to draw a specific story about the tea party at the Kudo residence in the future?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: It's still a long way to go (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Wow, there is one!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Of course there is (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Did Jinpei Matsuda own a car? If so, what model?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh? (laughs) I wonder if he drives one? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Or what car would you like him to drive?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I think Hagiwara drives one (laughs) but it's Matsuda, so isn't it a Mazda? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Mazda? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Please take responsibility (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Oh, that's bad (laughs) Sorry for talking nonsense (laughs) I'm sorry if I come out and say, "Oh, no, it's a Toyota" (laughs) For now, it's a Mazda (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I think you said in a previous interview that the climax of "The Time-Bombed Skyscraper" was originally an episode made for Magic Kaito, but what kind of episode was it, and who would cut what color, if it was Magic Kaito? I've been wondering about that for a long time, so please let me know.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Oh, I forgot about that (laughs) I think it was a choice between Aoko or Akako, and I had to choose between them (laughs). It was a red thread, so Akako was like... "Hey, it's me, isn't it?" (laughs)... I think it was something like that (laughs). I mean, really... (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: About 20 years ago... (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Right (laughs), right (laughs) Sorry (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. What do you do to relax?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Relax? (laughs) KanColle (laughs) I also play Animal Crossing New Horizons and New Leaf (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Do you actually have that much time?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: No, I have quite a bit (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. A variety of cars appear in the series, please tell me why you chose a car you've driven or one you want to drive.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: It's my favorite car, actually. Detective Sato's car is the same as mine.<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Oh, you drive one?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yes, I drove one on my way here today (laughs) RX-7 (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: That's amazing. You like cars, don't you?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I do. Like Porsches. I'd like to drive one (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Please tell us Hiro's (Hiromitsu Morofushi) favorite food.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Hiro? (laughs) Is it Hiro? (laughs) Hiro... It's Nagano... (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Eh, maybe you're not thinking about it right now? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I'm thinking about it right now (laughs) I wonder? (laughs) Hmm, I wonder, Hiro... I wonder... (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Because it's Nagano...?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Because it's Nagano... (laughs) I think he probably likes things that people from Nagano like... (laughs) I have to think of something (laughs) Sorry (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Please tell us if there was a character whose name you had the most trouble with or took the longest time to decide on.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh? Subaru Okiya (laughs) Casval... well, um... no, I don't know (laughs) Um, there's a Gundam character called Char Aznable, and his original name is Casval (laughs). He's voiced by Shuichi Ikeda, and since he is in disguise, I thought I'd play on the idea and made Casval into Subaru Okiya... (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | (TN: Casval (キャスバル) is pronounced as "kyasubaru" in Japanese)<br> | ||
| + | MC: It's interesting to hear that because it's a new discovery<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: But I think everyone already knows it (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I love Ai Haibara, are there plans to make another movie with Ai as the main character?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well... yes, I guess (laughs) Hmm (laughs) Let's think about it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: It's not easy to make her the main character<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, it's difficult (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Well, I can't really say yes, it's quite difficult | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Why did you decide to draw Detective Conan? (Question from a little kid)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Hahaha (laughs) At that time, "The Kindaichi Case Files" was popular, and the editorial department asked me if I wanted to do a mystery, and I thought, "If I were to draw it, it would be something like this."<br> | ||
| + | MC: I see, so you liked solving mysteries since you were young?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yes, I liked Holmes. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. What kind of clothes does Gin wear when he sleeps?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: What kind of clothes!? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: What kind of clothes do he wear, or he don't wear any clothes...<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I want to know too (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Is there anything else?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I wonder (laughs) I think he'd just sleep like that (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Just like that, in his usual costume...?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: In his costume (laughs) In the passenger seat of a car or something...<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Cool<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Cool!? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Yes, everything is cool!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Haha (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. If you were to go camping, Aoyama-sensei, please tell us three characters you would like to go with.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh? If I were to go camping? Amuro seems like he can do anything. And Conan seems like he knows everything. And who else would it be... Ran-chan! Ran-chan. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. In Black Iron Submarine, Vermouth ended up wearing Fusae Campbell's pearl ornament as her obi clip. Whose idea was that? And I want to know if it will be used in the future.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Whose idea was it to design the ginkgo ornament?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: No, the fact that she's wearing it<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: The fact that she's wearing it? Ah, no, that was me from the beginning. I proposed to Sakurai-san that, um, she want that Fusae Campbell's, and Haibara gave it to her... so she felt obliged and helped her... Isn't that the story? So, is that right? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Why did Vermouth want it... did she know Fusae Campbell in the first place?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: That's right<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Is there some kind of relationship...<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: No, there isn't, sorry (laughs)... Huh? Ah, I see, I see (laughs) No (laughs) It was just a coincidence (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Everyone is reading too much into it<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yeah, I was surprised (laughs) I didn't really get it (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I really like Gin and Kir, but have you thought of any episodes where they'll appear?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yes, I think so. But I can't really go into too much detail about that (laughs). | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. How do you decide on a character's personality and appearance?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh? (laughs) I guess it's just random (laughs) Who for example?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: For example... well... Soshi Okita... or something<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah (laughs) Okay okay, Okita. For Okita, I thought I'd make him a very cheerful character who speaks Kansai dialect, so I made him like that. I try to draw a lot of characters that aren't around us. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. In Black Iron Submarine, there was a memorable phone call scene between Conan, Akai, and Amuro. When did Akai, Conan, and Amuro exchange phone numbers?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yeah (laughs), right (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | (Audience laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I'm really curious.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: That's right (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I heard that you and Director Tachikawa had some kind of exchange about one of them knowing Shinichi's number...<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: That's right, Director Tachikawa came up with the idea for the scene where the phone is brought close. I thought, "What? Seriously? (laughs)" (laughs), but I thought it was funny, so I used it! That's how it was (laughs). That's just a guess... Ah, sorry (laughs) That doesn't really answer the question (laughs) I don't really know either (laughs) Yeah... (laughs) I think they heard it somewhere... sometime? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: It's not important? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: It's not important (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. What movies or dramas did you watch last year that you found interesting?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I saw "Godzilla" the other day, and it was pretty good. And there was something else, ah, "Blue Giant"! It was good. Ah, I liked "Brush Up Life". And, just recently, "Gekokujou Kyuji". The rival's name was Edogawa Kaito (laughs) and I liked it. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Is there a possibility that Shuichi Akai will meet Kid in the future?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh (laughs) That's right (laughs) Let's think about it (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I love Azusa from Poirot, but what prefecture is she from?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh?! (laughs) Tokyo, isn't it? (laughs) I think it's probably Tokyo. Was there some kind of countryside setting? No? Okay, I got it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Host: So it's decided, Tokyo<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: She's Edokko (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Why didn't Bourbon appear when the Black Organization and the FBI confronted each other on Umizaru Island?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Hmm, I thought it would be too much of a hassle (laughs). I was also working on the scenario for Black Iron Submarine, so I was heavily involved in that, and I thought I'd hold back a bit on this (Umizaru Island) (laughs). | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. In Bride of Halloween, I think Furuya asked Conan, "Who are you?" but does he still not know Conan's true identity?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: That's right. He doesn't know for sure.<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Does he have a vague idea?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yes. He do think he's suspicious. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Please tell us how Kazami spend his days off, other than with Yoko-chan.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Other than Yoko-chan!? (laughs) Eh, even if he was suddenly dumped (laughs) Eh? He likes Yoko-chan, so I think he's watching her, but to begin with, I don't think he has many days off. He's busy. Also, just like Arai-kun drew (Zero's Tea Time), he probably spends his time (laughs) choosing clothes for Amuro (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I heard that Aoyama-sensei also supervised the dialogue in the movie, and that you revised 100% of Gin's lines in particular, I think you said in a previous interview, but Gin got so angry in the Black Iron Submarine that he seemed to deviate from his usual poetic phrasing...<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah, it's a crappy system (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I was a bit surprised at first (laughs). What do you think was the main factor that made Gin angry enough to say such abusive things?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh? (laughs) Ah, I was the one who wrote that it's a crappy system, but I didn't think he would talk like that (laughs). I thought, "He's really angry (laughs)" (laughs). Maybe he'd say it a little more calmly? (laughs). I thought so, but it seems that way (laughs) I was surprised too (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Is there any meaning behind Ai-chan looking at Rum's car with a meaningful look?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: There might be a meaning (laughs) But I can't say (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Please tell us why you continue to draw for so long.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I guess it's the feeling that "if I do this, I'll entertain my fans"...? Sorry (laughs) I'm feeling a bit confused (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: But I think you've all noticed, the time you spend visiting your precious hometown, the time you spend with your family, treating everyone as family...<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Hahaha (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: I think the answer is that you spend time together. You spend your precious time for your fans. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Mary took APTX and became small, so I wonder if she would go to junior high school? What do you think?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Mary?! (laughs) Ahaha (laughs) I don't think she would go (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I want to see her in a school uniform<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: No?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: No (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I like Haibara Ai, also known as Miyano Shiho, and the Miyano family, but will there be any developments in the original work in which Ai returns to Shiho or the Miyano family plays an active role?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: There might be, but I can't say (laughs) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I'm a student preparing for exams. What should I do when I get stuck studying?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh? (laughs) Watch Conan! (laughs) It's a nice distraction, so just watch one episode.<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: What did you do during the break?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah, me? I used to watch anime and stuff that made my parents got mad at me (laughs) and read manga and stuff. It's still a distraction...all the time, you know. If I study all the time, things get messy. Take a break. It's better to watch movie, read manga, or watch anime (laughs) | ||

| + | Questioner : Yes, from now on<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well ～ no but, do you want to see it? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner : I do want to see it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Then I’ll think about it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner : Thank you (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | (Audience applauds)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | MC: Saying you’ll think about it is a good answer, isn’t it, Sensei? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Right? (laughs) It’s a good one, isn’t it? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. You appeared on the Kōhaku Uta Gassen (Red and White Song Battle). Will there be a case related to Kōhaku in the future? (Will you draw one?)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh~ (laughs) Yeah (laughs). Well ～ I wonder—NHK might not be too happy about that (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | (Audience laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: They might not allow it (laughs). But you know, I did think it might be interesting to do a case involving a music show, though it seems like it could get complicated (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: How about changing the title to something like East vs. West Song Battle?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh~ Music Show Murder Case (laughs). Yeah, well, I’ll think about it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. If Heiji-kun and Kazuha-chan start dating, what will happen to Momiji-chan?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh~ Well, from Momiji’s perspective, she hasn’t given up yet (laughs). I think she’ll keep trying her best in that area Something like that (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: So you’re going to have her keep trying. She’s the kind of girl who doesn’t give up, right?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: That’s right (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. How are you able to come up with so many different characters?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I don’t really know! (laughs) I just kind of think of them naturally. I guess I’ve watched a lot of movies<br> | ||
| + | MC: Didn’t you mention last year that even when many culprits appear, you don’t draw the same person twice? You always change something about them<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yeah, that’s right (laughs). I watch a lot of movies, manga, and dramas (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: So they just sort of come to you—that’s amazing<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: It’s just somehow (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||

| + | '''General questions:'''<br> | ||
| + | Q. Are there any plans to depict a story in which Chihaya-san and Furuya-san (Rei) meet or work together on a case, in relation to the Police Academy group?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: You mean like Chihayafuru? (laughs) Ahh~ well, it’s an interesting idea, so I’ll think about it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Did you maybe just now decide to consider it because it sounds interesting? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahaha (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Of all the stories you’ve drawn so far, which one is your favorite, Aoyama-sensei?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah, well, that would definitely be “Ran GIRL” and “Shinichi BOY” (from Detective Conan volume 87). I honestly think that turned out pretty well, even if I say so myself (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Every year, you say you love Ran-chan, you love romance stories, and you love lovey-dovey stuff.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: That’s true (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Why was Kogoro able to become a detective even though he doesn’t have any deductive skills? (Asked by a young boy)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahahaha (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | (Audience laughter)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, yeah… he doesn’t really have deductive skills (laughs), but he has other good points—like being good with a gun, or strong in judo (laughs). And, well… you know, he’s got Conan with him, right? Hehehe (laughs). The world runs pretty smoothly, doesn’t it? (laughs) Yeah (laughs). Thanks (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: That was a fun question (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. What day in September is Aoko Nakamori-chan’s birthday?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: September… ahh~ (laughs) I haven’t decided that (laughs). Do you have a preferred date? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Eh…?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: If you say one now, that might end up being it?<br> | ||
| + | MC: Wow, you might actually get to decide it!<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Umm… then… since Kaito’s birthday is the 21st… maybe the 12th…?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: September 12th? Are you okay with that?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Ah… uhh… yeah, that’s fine…<br> | ||
| + | MC: So you’re leaving it up to the sensei<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Alright then, I’ll think about it for now (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. What does Ran-chan usually talk about with her karate club members?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh~? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Do they talk about love?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I’m sure they do (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: That’s great to hear<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I bet everyone’s really interested in hearing Ran’s stories (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I’d love to join in!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahahaha (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | (Audience laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, if I come up with a scene like that, I’ll think about it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Is there a plan to depict the moment or reason when Kazuha-chan fell in love with Heiji?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ohh~ (laughs) You want to see that? Well, I’ll think about it (laughs). But… I might actually draw it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. In the scene where Heiji confesses to Kazuha at the Abeno Harukas, there’s a moment when they hold hands and come down together. Should we interpret that Heiji was the one who initiated the hand-holding? Is there a plan to depict that moment in the story?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh~ (laughs) Well, I think it was Heiji who initiated the hand-holding (laughs). Whether I’ll draw it or not, I’m not sure, but I’ll think about it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Please do!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, if you go to the Conan Detective Agency (Furusato-kan), you’ll find a colored illustration of that scene displayed there (laughs). Go check it out (laughs). Highly recommend it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: It’s fun (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Aside from aiko and B’z, was there anyone you saw live at the Kōhaku (Red and White Song Festival) who made you think, “Wow, this person is amazing”?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh~? Ohhh~? (laughs) Hey, hey, hey (laughs). No, no, no… okay, okay, okay… (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | (Audience laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: without Fukuyama-san either (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ehh~~? (laughs) I wonder who it was? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: You were spot on with your guesses!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yeah, that’s true (laughs). Everyone was great, though! (laughs) Ahaha (laughs). Anyway, B’z were just amazing. The stage was so dark from our perspective that we could only tell someone was there, but we couldn’t see them clearly. Then, when the screen showed “B’z,” we all went, “Whoooa!!” It was incredible!! … B’z, yeah (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | (Audience laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Thank you!<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Have you considered a spin-off where Heiji Hattori is the main character?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: A spin-off like Zero’s Tea Time?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Um, something like Hanzawa-san?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah, Hanzawa-san (laughs)! I wonder how it’s different (laughs). Ahaha (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | (Audience laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Not at the moment, no (laughs). Sorry about that (laughs). Did you want to see it?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Yes, a manga with him as the main character…<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh~ (laughs) For now, no one comes to mind, but… well, let’s just say that for now (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Last year, I think the couple that made the most progress was Heiji-kun and Kazuha-chan. If there’s going to be more progress in the future, which couple would you like us to focus on?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, maybe Kansuke and…? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: And…?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, yeah (laughs). There’s a couple I really shouldn’t mention that’s in my head right now… (laughs). It’s kind of dangerous, (laughs). So yeah, that’s about it, (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I want to ask about Gin. I think he’s being chased by the FBI, including Akai-san, and he probably travels all over the place. Does he have safe houses across the country, or does he move around like Mary and the others, staying in different hotels? I’m curious if he avoids using hotel amenities to leave no traces—does he bring his own stuff? Also, does he wear hotel bathrobes?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah~ (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I’m really curious about whether Gin wears a hotel bathrobe, so if you could tell us, that’d be great<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah~ (laughs) is that so (laughs) eh? But aren’t they sleeping in their car ? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: They don’t stay at hotel?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: As for where they stay, it seems like they’re probably staying in a place no one knows about (laughs). And then maybe like some sort of organization’s apartment or secret hideout-like places scattered all over the place, I think (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: So they move around without the FBI finding them…<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yeah, they probably aren’t being found (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Do you think he wears a bathrobe?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Gin? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Yes!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah~ (laughs) Well, of course, he would wear it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I think it would suit him!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: He probably has a hard time washing his hair, though (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I’m from Hokkaido. I think last year’s movie featured Hakodate as the setting, and the clock tower appeared. I’d love to see tourist spots from Sapporo in future stories. Will that happen?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, it might be a little while before that happens (laughs), but maybe it could happen. Do you have any recommendations?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Well, there’s Odori Park…<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah~ (laughs) Yes<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: There are also romantic spots, like the TV Tower<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yes, I’ll think about it then (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I have a question about Azusa-san. Could you tell us how many years she has worked at Poirot in total?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Azusa? How many years has it been, I wonder? (laughs) I don’t really know (laughs). Well ～ hmm, but maybe she’s been working since high school, after all ～<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Since high school… Thank you<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Thanks (laughs). I just randomly said that, though (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Everyone has interesting things they’re curious about, huh<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I was born and raised in Tottori. Are there any plans to set a movie in Tottori Prefecture?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh~? (laughs) Not at the moment, no (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: If possible, I’d love to see one!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, I once tried using the Tottori dialect in a work, but people said they couldn’t understand it (laughs). It’s tricky, you know? Osaka dialect, Hakata dialect—they’re easier to understand. But Tottori is difficult. If I were to use it, I’d want to use the Tottori dialect, though. So, I’d have to figure out how to do it well. I’ll think about it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. (Following the previous question) Heiji and Kazuha ended up together, but Momiji said she would still keep trying. Will Iori-san, Momiji’s butler, continue to stay by her side, or—because of his previous profession—will there come a time when he has to go somewhere else?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah~ no, I think he’ll stay with her for a long time. He’ll probably be there until Momiji dies (laughs). I think he’ll continue to protect her<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Thank you<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I have a question about the Conan Café. I know that you love curry rice, but are there any other menu items at the Conan Café that you’d like to try?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: What kind of menu items do they have at the Conan Café again? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: They change every year<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I’m not really sure about the menu right now, but I generally like things like Napolitan pasta or stuff that kids tend to like (laughs). Like hamburgers or hamburger steak (laughs), I like those (laughs). Sorry for being kind of vague<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I wanted to ask about the planning for aiko’s tranquilizer gun scene, but it seems like some behind-the-scenes details have already been revealed…<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Oh, we had a lot of discussions about it! At first, we were like, Should we go with a funya sound? (in a soft voice), but even so, that was a bit much (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I’m a fan of aiko, and I go to her live shows. I also watched the behind-the-scenes video from the NHK’s Kōhaku. Did seeing Aiko-san ever inspire you to come up with a murder case?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: No, hahaha (laughs). No, not really (laughs). You want that? (laughs) I mean, it’d be kind of sad to have a singer commit murder, so… yeah. Maybe I’ll think of something where she’s just involved in a case or something (laughs). Aiko-san was really cute<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Since Akai-san was raised in the UK, did he do any sports other than Jeet Kune Do?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Hmm, I wonder but Jeet Kune Do… he probably learned it from his father, so he probably didn’t have much interest in other sports (laughs). But he does seem like he’d be good at cricket (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Maybe… baseball too, in America?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yeah, true (laughs). I think he’d be good at cricket<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I live in Kurayoshi. The city’s area code appears to be significant in the works. How do you see Kurayoshi being involved in future Conan stories?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah~ that’s just a coincidence (laughs). I’ve been a bit careful with using Kurayoshi in the story, as I might upset people from there (laughs). It’s a coincidence, sorry about that (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Could you share a New Year’s Day memory from when you were little?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: A memory? Well, my family would say, “Let’s go do hatsumōde (New Year’s shrine visit),” but I’d be like, “That’s a hassle, I’ll stay home,” and that’s kind of what my New Year’s Day memories were like (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | But these days, I absolutely go. For my health (laughs). Like, “Please take care of me again this year,” and I go to pray (laughs). I go for hatsumōde. That’s how it is (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. In a recent issue of Sunday, there was a scene where Hiro confronted the culprit. Did he already have experience in martial arts or something?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: At the police, they probably learn self-defense techniques and martial arts, so he might not have had any experience originally, but Hiro’s actually pretty strong. Though not as strong as Kyōgoku (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I’d like to know about Inspector Ayanokoji’s private life in Kyoto. Could you tell us about his hobbies or what he usually does?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah~ (laughs) Well, isn’t he probably just feeding Maro-chan? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Does he have any other hobbies?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Hobbies? (laughs) He really loves Maro-chan, that guy (laughs). Hmm, do you have any suggestions?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Maybe something like kyūdō (Japanese archery)…?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Kyūdō!? (laughs) Archery!? Wow! (laughs) Well, I’ll think about it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Are there any plans to depict a triple date story with Shinichi & Ran, Heiji & Kazuha, and Kyogoku & Sonoko?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I hadn’t thought about that at all (laughs). A triple date, huh? (laughs) Well, I guess so (laughs). I’ll think about it (laughs). Ahaha (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: This, you haven’t thought about it, right? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Sorry (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I watched the Professional broadcast, and I noticed you eat quite a bit of curry. I also went to Bondy and enjoyed it. Are there any other foods you’ve been eating while working or any current food recommendations?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Hmm, I wonder if there’s anything? (laughs) I mostly just eat cheap stuff (laughs). Lately, I’ve been pretty into the mini beef bowl packs from Yoshinoya (laughs). They’re small, healthy, and really nice<br> | ||
| + | MC: So the portion size is just right for you?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yeah, that’s right. Also, I like regular curry from CoCo Ichibanya (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Sensei’s easy on the wallet!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, yeah (laughs) it’s delicious<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I live in Saitama. Despite being close to Tokyo, there haven’t been any detectives appearing from there…<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahaha (laughs), sorry about that (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I’d like to see a case that takes place in Saitama.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah, okay (laughs). Someday (laughs). Yokomizo actually first appeared as part of the Saitama Prefectural Police, but then… he got transferred to Shizuoka (laughs). Sorry about that (laughs) | ||
| + | At one point I thought about having Yokomizo move around to different prefectures, but I was told that kind of thing rarely happens (laughs) | ||
| + | So… well, Saitama… eventually (laughs). I’ll draw it (laughs). I’ll think about it (laughs). Sorry (laughs). | ||
| + | MC: Which one? Are you thinking about it or planning to draw it?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: I’ll think about it! (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Does Kazuha-chan have any interests besides aikido?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh—well, what she loves is Heiji (laughs). Let’s see… I think she probably likes cooking and such. Umm… cooking and… I wonder what else… I honestly haven’t thought about it (laughs). That question really came out of nowhere (laughs). Like, what she might like… If you have any ideas, I’d be glad to hear them<br> | ||
| + | MC: What do you think she might like? Just based on your own imagination…<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: …<br> | ||
| + | MC: (The person asking the question) said that that’s what they wanted to ask<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Right? (laughs) They handed the decision over to me (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: yeah, thinking about it, it would probably end up like that<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Do you have anything in mind?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: …<br> | ||
| + | MC: Well then both of you think about it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, it’s fine (laughs). I’ll think about it myself (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I’m a Taiwanese person living in Japan. Conan has only been to the UK outside of Japan in the movies. Does he have any plans to go to other countries? Like Taiwan, maybe…<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: His passport situation is kind of a mess… (laughs) That guy, you know? (laughs) Um… he doesn’t really get to go overseas very easily, so… yeah, the only way is to get stuffed into Kaito Kid’s suitcase or something (laughs). So yeah, going abroad is pretty tough for him (laughs). If he went back to normal, sure, he could go… but as Conan, it’s kinda hard right now (laughs). Plus, I can’t just keep reusing the same gag over and over (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: You mean the feeling is, We want him to come to Taiwan!, right?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah, I see. Yeah, I’d like to visit Taiwan! (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Really? You, sensei?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yeah, yeah, yeah (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Please go! Make the time for it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I really love the Black Organization’s code names—they’re so cool! I’d love to see more members with code names. Are there any new characters planned for the future?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: What kind of alcohol would you like to see show up?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Honestly… something like ●● (a type of alcohol), maybe…? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: ●●…? Wait, do you mean ●●-san?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: What!? You got it!?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Seriously!!<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Wow…! Thank you so much!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Wow! You got it right—you’re the one who likes Takaaki, right!?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Yes…! That’s me!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: That’s great (laughs). Takaaki is going to be super active this year, so look forward to it (laughs)!<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Thank you so much!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Do your best! (laughs) — Ah, I’m the one who has to do their best, (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: ?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: This person always sends me fan letters… (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Ah, I see! So that’s why you got so excited?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Exactly (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Kinda feels like everyone got left behind (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh ～! (laughs) Sorry! (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: I’m so happy that Sensei noticed me (laughs). Sensei… please (let me win) the next drawing…<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh oops! (laughs) I was totally caught up with ●●-san! (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | (Audience laughter)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Will there be a story where Shinichi and Kaito Kid fight in the future?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ah, yes, I’d like to draw that! (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I’m looking forward to it!<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahaha (laughs) Shinichi, huh<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. My name is Hattori. Thanks to Detective Conan, I’ve come to like my last name.<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahahaha (laughs). No, no, no (laughs). I mean, there’s also Hanzō, right? (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Is there a last name in your works that you personally really like or one you’d want to have yourself?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh… it’d have to be Kudo, I think (laughs). After all, I really liked Kudo-chan from Detective Story, the one Yusaku Matsuda played. If I could become Kudo, I totally would (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. In the latest volume, there was a development between Heiji and Kazuha at Abeno Harukas (Naniwa Harukas). Was this idea planned even before Abeno Harukas was completed?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Before it was completed…?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I mean, before Abeno Harukas was finished, did you already plan a story where they confess their feelings or express their love from a high place…?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh, well, of course, after it was completed… (laughs) When was it completed?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: So it’s not like you’d had it planned from way back, right?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Yeah, after it was completed… And, when I decided to do it, I definitely wanted to involve Kazuha’s mother. I thought, “I’ll trick everyone!” (laughs) I wanted to make everyone think she’s going to confess to Kazuha’s mother, but then do a twist— that was something I had in mind for a long time! (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Who is stronger, Ran Mouri or Kogoro Mouri?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Stronger!? (laughs) Ahh, wow… that’s a great question (laughs). But well, Kogoro’s actually pretty strong too (laughs). But Ran-chan is like destructively strong (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | MC: Destructively strong, indeed (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Well, they’re about the same, I guess (laughs). But you know, if they fought, since he’s her father, I think he’d go easy on her. That’s the punchline (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I’m from Kyushu, and when I go to Tokyo for work, I feel the differences between the regions. Could you create a case that incorporates these regional distinctions?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh, yeah, I’ve wanted to use dialects and things like that, but it’s a bit difficult. I’d like to do it someday, though<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: It’d be great if it could be set in Kyushu…<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Kyushu, sure! (laughs) Are you talking about Hakata dialect?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I speak Saga dialect<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Saga dialect?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Yes, Saga dialect<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Oh, is Saga dialect different from Hakata dialect?<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: Yes, it’s a bit more rustic<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Hahaha (laughs) okay I got it (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. There is a mystery tour in Tottori, and I would like to know if there are any tourist spots or buildings in Tottori that you would like to include in the mystery tour based on your memories<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Eh~? where would that be? It’s been a long time since I moved to Tokyo (laughs). There’s a place nearby called Odaiba, and I’ve used that before, but… I’m not really sure. As for Tottori, maybe crab? Hmm… and pears, I guess… something like that (laughs). I’m not sure how I’d use them, though (laughs). But it’s all delicious stuff, that’s for sure (laughs)<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Who is the tallest character among all of them?<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: The tallest? Ah～Gin or Kyogoku<br> | ||
| + | Questioner: I heard that Date is over 2 meters tall…<br> | ||
| + | Aoyama: Ahh~! maybe Date!? (laughs) Date and Gin might be pretty close in height. Kyogoku might actually be a bit shorter. Anyway, those three are all really tall. It’s not Kazami, though (laughs). In my mind, Kazami is about the same height as Amuro (laughs). So, it’s Gin, Kyogoku, or Date. The top 3! (laughs)<br> | ||

| + | Q. After appearing on Kōhaku Uta Gassen ''[T/N: A music show that traditionally airs around New Year’s in Japan]'', do you have plans to write a case based around it? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah.. (haha) Right. (haha) Well… I wonder, there’s NHK to worry about. Ahaha… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''[The audience laughs.]'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' They might not allow it. (haha) Well, I did think something like a music show case might be fun, but it might also be troublesome. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' What if you changed the name? Like, a West vs. East tournament. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Right… a music show murder case. (haha) But yes, I’ll think about it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. What will happen with Momiji now that Heiji and Kazuha are dating? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Right… Momiji herself hasn’t given up, so. (haha) I’m sure she’ll be doing her best in the background somewhere. Something like that. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' So you’ll have her do her best. She’s like, a woman who doesn’t give up? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' That’s right. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Why can you think up so many different characters? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I have no idea. (haha) It kinda just pops up in my mind. I guess I’ve uh, watched a lot of movies? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' If I recall correctly, last year you mentioned that a large number of criminals have appeared but you’ve never drawn the same person twice. That you change them in some way every time. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Mm… yes. (haha) That’s right. (haha) I watch lots of movies and dramas and manga. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' So it kinda just pops up in your mind. That’s amazing. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' It kinda just pops up. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''Questions from the Entire Audience''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Do you plan to write a Police Academy-related case where Chihaya-san and Furuya-san meet, or cooperate to solve a case? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah, so Chihayafuru, you mean. (haha) Right… it does sound a little interesting, so I’ll think about it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' “It sounds a little interesting”? Don’t tell me you stole that idea just now. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ahaha. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. What’s your favourite case among those you’ve written until now? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah, that would be Ran GIRL and Shinichi BOY of course. [Detective Conan Vol. 87] Not to toot my own horn, but I do think it came out well. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' Every year you talk about how you love Ran-chan, romance, and love comedies after all. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' That’s right. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. [Asked by a small boy] How did Kogoro become a detective when he’s not good at deductions? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ahahaha. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''[The audience laughs.]'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Yes, well… it’s true he’s not good at deductions. (haha) But he has all sorts of other things he’s good at, like Judo… (haha) And like how he’s strong at Judo. And… well, he’s got Conan with him, heh heh. Everything works out. (haha) Yes. (haha) That’s all. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' That was a fun question. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. When in September is Nakamori Aoko born? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' September, right… (haha) I haven’t decided. (haha) When would you want it to be? (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Huh…? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' If you give me a date, it might become true. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' Amazing, it’s your choice. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Wait a sec… then… Since Kaito is born on the 21st… maybe the 12th…? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' September 12th? Is that good with you? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Ah… um… yes… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' They say that they’ll leave it to you, sensei. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I’ll think about it at least. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. What does Ran-chan usually talk about with her karate club friends? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Huh…? (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Do they talk about romance? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I’m sure they do? (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' I’m happy. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I think everyone is interested to know how things are going with Ran’s love life. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' I almost want to join them myself. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ahahaha. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''[The audience laughs.]'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Then I’ll think about it including that kind of scene if anything comes to mind. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Do you ever plan to draw the moment Kazuha-chan fell for Heiji? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Oh…? (haha) Do you want to see it? Then I’ll think about it. (haha) But this… well, I might just actually draw it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. After the scene where Heiji-kun confesses to Kazuha-chan at Abeno Harukas, they come back down holding hands. Should we interpret this as Heiji-kun taking the initiative to hold hands, and do you plan to ever draw how that happened? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Right… (haha) Well, I think Heiji was the one to try and hold hands. (haha) I don’t know whether I’ll ever draw it, but I’ll think about it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Please do. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Um… if you go to Conan Tanteisha [the hometown museum], you can see a coloured illustration of something similar. (haha) Please go see it. (haha) I recommend it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' It’s very fun. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. At Kōhaku Uta Gassen, were there any artists that made you go “Woah, this singer is amazing!” other than aiko and B'z? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Huh…? Oh…? (haha) Hey hey. (haha) No, no… yes, yes… (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''[The audience laughs.]'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Fukuyama-san is also forbidden. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Huh…? (haha) I wonder who I can go with…?? (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' They’ve zeroed in on all of your answers. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' That’s right. (haha) I liked them all? Ahaha. The main thing is that B’z was amazing. The stage was pretty dark to us in the audience, you know. It was pitch black, and I was thinking “I wonder if anyone’s there? I can’t tell…” and then B’z showed up on the screen and I was all like, “Wooooooah!!!” (haha) It was amazing!!! …My choice is B’z. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''[The audience laughs.]'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Thank you very much. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Are you thinking about a spinoff featuring Hattori Heiji? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' A spinoff? Like Zero’s Tea Time? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Um… more like Hanzawa-san. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah, Hanzawa-san. (haha) H-How are they different? Ahaha. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''[The audience laughs.]'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' We don’t have any plans for that right now. (haha) I apologize. (haha) Did you want one? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Yes, a manga where Hattori is the star… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Right… (haha) We don’t have any plans for that right now, so I’ll leave it at that. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Last year, Heiji-kun and Kazuha-chan were the main ship to have romantic developments. But if you plan to have romantic developments for any other characters moving forward, which ones should we keep our eye on? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' That would be Kansuke and…? Something like that? (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' And…? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Well, um. (haha) A ship I shouldn’t mention just… floated up in my head… (haha) It’d be bad to say. (haha) Well, that’s about it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I’d like my question to focus on Gin. I imagine Akai-san and the rest of the FBI are constantly on his tail, so he must travel around to many different places. Does he have safehouses across the nation, or does he stay in hotels like Mary-san and Masumi do? But it might be bad to leave any clues behind, so he wouldn’t use the hotel amenities, and would pay for everything himself of course… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' I really want to know if Gin-san would wear hotel bathrobes, so please tell me if you can. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… (haha) Is that so? (haha) Um…? But I think they’d sleep in their cars or something, right? (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' They wouldn’t look for lodging? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Lodging… right, they probably stay somewhere no one would know about. (haha) Else, maybe Organization-controlled apartment buildings, or getaway houses. I’m sure they have them all over the place. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' So he flits from place to place to keep himself from being caught by the FBI… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Right, without being caught. He’s probably not caught. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Does he wear bathrobes? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Gin? (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Yes! | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Right… (haha) Ah, well, of course he does. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' I think it fits him! | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I think he probably struggles to wash all that hair too. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I came from Hokkaido. Last year’s movie was set in Hakodate and if I recall correctly, even had the clock tower show up. I’d be happy if Sapporo tourist attractions showed up next. Are there any plans for that? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Well, it’d need to be a long time from now. (haha) Right? (haha). We might. Where would you recommend? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Right, um… maybe Oodori Park? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… (haha) Yes. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Um… we have romantic spots too… like the TV Tower, yes. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Yes, then well I’ll think about it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I have a question about Azusa-san. I’d like to know how long she’s been working at Poirot. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Azusa? I wonder? (haha) I don’t know. (haha) Well, hm, but maybe since her high school years…? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Since she was a high schooler… thank you very much. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Of course. (haha) It was totally off the top of my head though. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' It’s interesting to find out what people want to know about. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I’m born and raised in Tottori. Are there any plans for a movie set here? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Huh…? (haha) None right now. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' I’d love to see one if ever possible. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I used Tottori dialect in one of my works before, but I was told it was incomprehensible. (haha) Osaka dialect, Hakata dialect, etc. are pretty easy to understand, but Tottori dialect is hard. If we did do a Tottori movie, I’d want to have people speaking Tottori dialect, right… so… (haha) I’d have to find some kind of solution. I’ll think about it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. [Per a previous question] you said that Momiji will do her best even now that Heiji-kun and Kazuha have gotten together, but will her butler Iori continue to stay by her side? Will he have to leave perhaps because of issues related to his old job? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… no, well, I think he’ll be by her side forever. I think he’ll stay by her side until the day Momiji dies. (haha) I think he’ll keep protecting her. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Thank you very much. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I’d like to ask about Conan cafés. I know that you love curry rice, but is there anything else you’d like to eat at a Conan café? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' What do they serve at Conan cafés again? (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' It changes year by year. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I don’t know what the current menu is, but I like dishes like naporitan spaghetti that children like, so. (haha) Also, hamburgers and hamburg steak. (haha) That’s what I like. (haha) Sorry it’s so vague. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Did you meet in advance with aiko-san to plan for the moment where you shot her with a tranquilizer watch? ''[T/N: Aoyama mock shot aiko-san with a tranquilizer watch at the end of her song on this year’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen.]'' Or at least, that’s what I wanted to ask, but there might be stuff you need to keep secret… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' We had a lot of meetings about that! At first, I uh asked whether I should say “Funya?”, but that was shot down. (haha) ''[T/N: I don’t know enough about aiko to say what “Funya?” might mean. Maybe a catchphrase?]'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' I’m a aiko-san fan so I’ve gone to a fair number of her concerts, so I’ve watched the video of her song on Kōhaku Uta Gassen. Did any murder cases come to mind after seeing aiko-san? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah, well, hahaha. No, I can’t say any did. (haha) Do you want to see one? (haha) I’d feel too bad to kill off a singer, but, well, I’ll think about it a plot that would have a singer involved. (haha) aiko-san was very cute. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Since Akai-san was raised in England, were there any sports he was forced to play aside from Jeet Kune Do? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I wonder? But Jeet Kune Do… he probably learnt it from his father, so I think he wouldn’t be interested in any other sport. (haha) But he seems like he’d be good at cricket. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Maybe baseball in America…? Too? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Right, right. (haha) I think he’s good at cricket. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I live in Kurayoshi. The Kurayoshi phone number area code is fairly important in your work, but what kind of role will Kurayoshi play in Conan in the future? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… no, it’s just a coincidence. (haha) Kurayoshi, well… Kurayoshi residents would get mad at me, so. (haha) It would be difficult to use the city. (haha) It’s just a coincidence, I apologize. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Do you have any New Year’s memories from when you were little? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Memories? Usually my family would ask me to visit a shrine with them, but I’d stay at home since it was too much of a pain. ''[T/N: In Japan, it’s tradition to visit a shrine on the first day of the new year.]'' That about sums up my New Year’s memories. (haha) But I always go these days. For my health. (haha) “Um… I’m counting on you this year again.” (haha) That’s what I go to the shrine to pray, basically. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. There was a scene in a chapter the other day where Hiro faces off against a criminal, but did he always have experience with martial arts? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I’m sure they learn uh… self-defence techniques and martial arts at the police academy, so he might not have any experience originally. But Hiro is strong. Though he’s weaker than Kyogoku. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I’d like to know about Kyoto’s Inspector Ayanokouji’s personal life. Please tell me his hobbies, or what he does in his spare time. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… (haha) Maybe he feeds Maro-chan and such. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Does he have no other hobbies? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Hobbies? (haha) He loves Maro-chan, so that. (haha) Hey, what do you think would be good? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Maybe archery… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Archery?! (haha) A bow?! Huh… (haha) Well, I’ll think about it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Do you have any plans for a triple date with Shinichi-Ran, Heiji-Kazuha, and Kyougoku-Sonoko? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Not at all. (haha) A triple date, huh? (haha) Ah, well, I see. (haha) I’ll think about it. Ahaha. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' You aren’t thinking about it at all, aren’t you? (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I apologize. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I watched your Professional interview. Since you were eating a lot of curry, I went out to eat at Curry Bondy too, and it was good. I’d love to hear about any other meals you enjoy while working, or food you’d highly recommend. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I wonder if I have anything to recommend…? (haha) All I eat is cheap stuff, so. (haha) I’m really into the beef don mini-pack from Yoshinoya- it’s a pretty small portion, so um, it’s good. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' The portion size is good? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Yes. Oh, any curry from Coco, of course. (haha) I like it. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' Sensei, you’re very economical. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Well, yes. (haha) It tastes good. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I live in Saitama. Even though it’s so close to Tokyo, no Saitama detectives have made an appearance… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ahaha. I apologize. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' I’d like you to draw a case set in Saitama. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… yes. (haha) One day. (haha) Yokomizo did show up in Saitama at first, but um… he transferred to Shizuoka. (haha) I apologize. (haha) So, I thought to have Yokomizo transfer all over the place, but I was told that almost never happens. (haha) Right… then, I’ll draw Saitama… one day… (haha) I’ll think about it. (haha) I apologize. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' Which is it? You’ll think about it, or you’ll draw it? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I’ll think about it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Does Kazuha-chan have anything she likes aside from aikido? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… she does like Heiji. (haha) Right, I think she’d like cooking [like others like her would.] Um… also cooking… and uh, I wonder… I hadn’t thought about it at all. (haha) You sure asked a tough question. (haha) What would she like… do you have anything in mind yourself? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' What she would like? It’s up to your [the questioner’s] imagination… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' … | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' The questioner says that they wanted to hear it from you. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Right. (haha) But well, I handed them the power to choose, so. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' If they think of anything, it might become true, after all. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Does anything come to mind? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' … | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' Then, please think on it, both of you. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Well, then, it’s fine. (haha) I’ll think about it. Me. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. I’m Taiwanese, but I currently live in Japan. Aside from the movies, Conan-kun has never been to any country but England. Are there any plans to have him visit other foreign countries? Like Taiwan… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' His passport is an issue for him, so… (haha) Um… so he can’t really go overseas, um… because see, he doesn’t have any options aside from being stuffed into luggage by Kaito Kid, so. (haha) Um… going overseas would be difficult. (haha) Well, if he returned to his original body, he could go, but well, in his current situation it would be hard for him to go. (haha) I can’t use the same plot twice, so. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' It’s more about [the questioner’s] feelings of wanting him to go to Taiwan. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah, is that so. I’d like to visit Taiwan too. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' Huh? You do? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Yes, yes, yes. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' Please do. (haha) Make some time. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Organization codenames are so cool. I love them. I’d love to see new codenamed members appear, but do you have any plans for that? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' What kind of alcohol would you like to see appear? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' To be honest… ●● [the name of an alcohol] or something, perhaps… (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' ●●…? Don’t tell me- are you ●●-san? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Huh?! You could tell?! | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Really?! | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Yes…! Thank you very much. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Amazing! So you managed to win a Q&A slot in the lottery… you’re the one who loves Koumei…?! | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Yes…! That’s right! | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' I’m happy for you. (haha) Koumei will play a big role this year, so. (haha) Please look forward to it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Thank you very much! | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Please do your best. (haha) Ah, wait, I’m the one who needs to do their best. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' ? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Amazing… they’re someone I always receive fanmail from. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' Ah, I see! So that’s why you got so excited? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Yes, yes. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' I feel like everyone was out of the loop there. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah…! (haha) I apologize. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' I’m sure they’re happy they were noticed by you. (haha) Sensei, onto the next question… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah, right. (haha) I was too focused on ●●-san. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''[The audience laughs.]'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Do you plan to draw Shinichi and Kid facing off? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… right. I’d like to draw it. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' I’ll look forward to it. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ahaha. Shinichi, huh… | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. My name is Hattori. I grew to like my name thanks to Detective Conan. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ahahaha. Wait, wait, wait. (haha) What about Hanzō? ''[T/N: A famous samurai was named Hattori Hanzō.]'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Please tell me what last names you like, or would like to have, in your works. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… Kudo. (haha) I do really like the Kudo-chan that Matsuda Yuusaku played in Tantei Monogatari, so if I could I’d love to become a Kudo. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Heiji and Kazuha deepened their relationship in the most recent chapters at Abeno Harukas. Had you already decided to an extent what would happen even before Abeno Harukas was made? ''[T/N: The building opened in 2014.]'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' From before it was made…? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' From before it was completed… did you already think of… a story where… he confessed, or well conveyed his feelings, somewhere high up…? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… no, I thought it up after its completion. (haha) When was it completed? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' So essentially it wasn’t a plot you had planned for a long time. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Yes… right, it was after it was completed… But well, I did think that I definitely wanted to include Kazuha’s mother. I thought I’d trick you all. (haha) I wanted to make everyone think, “He’s gonna confess to her mother, right?” then pull the rug under you when he actually confessed. (haha) I had that planned for a long long while. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Who’s stronger between Kogoro and Ran? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Who’s stronger?! (haha) Right… (haha) I wonder… hm.. A tough question. (haha) But well, Kogoro is strong! But, Ran is catastrophically strong too (haha). | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Moderator:''' Catastrophically, huh? (haha) That’s true. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Well, I think it’s hard to say. (haha) But well… if they did fight, Kogoro would probably hold back since he’s her dad. That would probably be how it ends. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. My hometown is in Kyushu. When I go to Tokyo for work, I can really feel the cultural differences. Could you write a case related to that kind of thing? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah… I do want to write a case that incorporates dialects somehow, but it’s tough. I do want to do it one day though. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Please do it in Kyushu. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Kyushu, huh? Right, right. (haha) With Hakata dialect? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' I speak Saga dialect though. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Saga dialect? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Saga dialect. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah, so there’s a difference? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' Yes, it’s a little more hickish. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ahahaha. Right, yes, I understand. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Tottori has a Mystery Tour. If you have any memorable locations or tourist spots you’d like to include in that tour, please tell us. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Huh…? I wonder? It’s been a long while since I moved to Tokyo. (haha) Odaiba is quite near here, so maybe something that used that… I wonder. Aside from that, hm, Tottori makes you think of crabs, and uh, apple-pears. That kinda thing, I guess. (haha) I have no clue how you’d make use of it though. (haha) All I talked about was good food. (haha) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Q. Who’s the tallest among all your characters? | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Tall characters? Right… Gin or Kyogoku. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Questioner:''' I heard that Date-san is over two metres tall… | ||
| + | |||
| + | :'''Aoyama:''' Ah…! Date then, maybe?! (haha) Gin and Date might be close in height. Kyougoku might be a little smaller than them. Well, the point is, the three of them are big. Um… it’s definitely not Kazami. (haha) In my heart, Kazami is about the same height as Amuro. (haha) Well, Gin or Kyogoku or Date. (haha) That’s the top three. (haha) | ||
