How come no one asks her the one questions that truly cause brains to tremble, namely, WHAT HAPPENED TO SAKAMOTO-KUN AT THE FINALE??? Is he really dying? Gong to Mars? An unemployed ninja jaded by his experience in a black market ninja company who was given a second chance as a high school student? I admit this question has been on my mind for quite a while.

I think giving an explanation to Sakamoto's origins/fate would've ruined it because no explanation would've been good enough. In fact, I think leaving it a mistery was the last touch of genius for the series to end in. I was actually expecting that they'd ask her about it, and how/why she decided to end it in a mysterious note, because that's the most fascinating aspect of the series to me. I sincerely hope Sano never reveals the "truth" about Sakamoto, that would kind of kill the magic

Great interview, some parts really make me laugh. The Monty Python, Kaoru Mori, Daimidaler, and that early concept of romantic comedy Laughing I didn't know Harta is the new name for Fellows! I'm glad the author ended up in Harta, her editor seems like a kind and supportive person.
