Foreign businessmen say that the names of Russian females have a stout and courageous image and the reason was that it won’t be well-received in the West. When I checked it out very carefully after that, there is the name Origa even among the European princesses, and I was angered twice, knowing that what those guys said were their mere personal impressions. ^_^;

The name of the Princess of Soleanna in Sonic the Hedgehog was Origa in scenario phase. Of course, she was named after the singer Origa, and I did so, but it met with various oppositions and I was unable to realize it. In my own way, I wanted to reflect her transparency and things like the real strength inside that.

I heard that Mr. Chikao Otsuka has passed away.

He was a really hardworking person, and if necessary, he would even fulfill the absurdity of a rookie like me and always face the mic with his full effort.

We won’t be able to hear that Dr. Eggman’s voice anymore. Respectfully, may his soul rest in peace.

Shedding tears.

I went to the bar which the voice actor of Mazinger Z’s Baron Ashura is running. That person [Hidekatsu Shibata] also acted in Sonic series before, so I was filled with deep emotion.

L, did you know? The main part (except Chao) of Sonic Adventure 2 was made by only 17 people. Moreover, there were only three people including director for the planning.
