        Q&A

        Q: How did you get into this career?

        I liked drawing since I was a kid. I started liking manga, anime, and games as a student, and decided I wanted to go into this field in the future.

        Q: Do you have anything you're picky about?

        I try to focus on the little habits that characters have to bring out their uniqueness. Other than that, I'm trying to develop my skills by drawing a wide genre of things such as accessories, background, SF, and fantasy, not just characters.

        Q: How long does it take to produce your artwork?

        If it's just the character, it'll take about 2 to 3 days, but with the background, it'll take 4 to 5 days.

        Q: Where do you get your ideas for your work?

        Ideas come to me when I'm listening to music and walking outside, or when I'm riding the train.
