Talking about Space Battleship Yamato<\/em><\/h3>\n

Space Battleship Yamato<\/em> is the first animation I worked on. Up until then, I had always said I wanted to work in animation, but I never got the opportunity. I thought the chance would come eventually. I wondered when that would be, and then Yamato<\/em> came along.<\/p>\n

When I heard of the theme for Yamato<\/em>, I was a little taken aback, wondering why I had to work in the world of \u201cBattleship Yamato<\/em>,\u201d which has a war story image. The animation I wanted to create was something with a new, more fairy-tale-like design. In terms of my previous works, I think Galaxy Express 999<\/em> was closer to what I had in mind.<\/p>\n

When I heard the word Yamato<\/em>, I thought about something more in line with my own tastes. It’s a story that belongs to the hobby category, like airplane mania, battleship mania, tank mania, etc. In terms of my feelings about animation, it had to be something that I would enjoy myself.<\/p>\n

However, there aren’t many opportunities to actually get involved with animation. I started out thinking \u201cOh, this is so troublesome,” but Yamato<\/em> was the ship I boarded. I don’t regret it, but it’s been a very long voyage. I’m a little tired, and I sometimes wonder if it’s time to call it quits.<\/p>\n

Space Battleship Yamato<\/em> is an important work that gave me the opportunity and place to make animation. It has given me a world of sensory samples, struggling against the intense impression I had of animation as a boy. It is a fundamental question of whether I am walking together with the people who watch anime.<\/p>\n

This is a theme that will never leave my mind, no matter what I create in the future. For me, this is an important work in the sense that if I had not done it, there would have been no future. I also put a lot of passion into it. It was the gateway to my other animation works. If you think of it in terms of training, Yamato<\/em> was elementary school, Galaxy Express 999<\/em> was junior high, and Harlock<\/em> and Queen Millennia<\/em> are college.<\/p>\n

I think Space Battleship Yamato<\/em> could be better if we could think of a direction that allows it to be interpreted a little more freely. Animation should not continue to deprive the viewer of the freedom of their senses. I also have some regrets that I didn’t make it in a way that was was relaxed, fun, and warm, not just about love and justice. I should have made it in a casual way either for good or ill.<\/p>\n

Because it is a very important work to me, I think I need to know when to quit, or when to move on, so Yamato<\/em> doesn’t end up in a sad way. Parental instincts begin to arise, since parents don’t want to leave their children to fend for themselves.<\/p>\n
