| Quotes: |
The thing about getting rejected is that you reflect and think and analyze about why you got turned down. You learn a lot more from stories about getting rejected than stories about becoming happy. That's why I prefer those stories.

In most of the world today people are interested in communication. They don't watch TV or play games that much; communication is becoming more of AN Entertainment form in itself. So when the society in which I live has this tendency that communication is so important, it has naturally become a central point of interest for my works.

There is always a pendulum of desires: I made a realistic film this time, then I make a different film next time.

If I must say something about Mari Okada...I love Toradora! (2008), which she wrote the screenplay for, a lot. And I think that The Garden of Words (2013) is influenced by the way the characters express their emotions in Toradora. I really do think that.

The first thing you make is a story. Then you decide where the location of the story will be, and how the story will develop. And then, when you think how the visuals will be in this process, then you finally think about how you take something from the setting and use it, how to depict it, and how to make the setting beautiful. That's when you begin to think that. So the story always comes first. |
