Informes de Misato 30 preguntas a Ai Yazawa Nana 7.8 (2003)

PLEASE READ THIS NOTES BEFORE READING THE INTERVIEW

NOTE 1: I'm not a professional translator, i did this the best i could, english is not my first language so there may be misspelled things

NOTE 2: This interview is from the 7.8 fanbook published between volumes 7 and 8 of Nana, when Yazawa talks about the characters you have to keep in mind what we knew about them at that point and not what they did or became latter in the story

Thank you

MISATO REPORTS - 30 QUESTIONS TO AI YAZAWA (9 to 19)

Okay, we already know more or less the author's position regarding the series, let's continue with the interview

Question 9: Which band would you prefer to play in: Blast or Trapnest?

Uh, i don't see myself on a punk band (laughs) better with Trapnest.

Question 10: And what instrument would you play?

I use to play piano, so i would play the keyboard

Question 11: Tell us about an experience at a concert

I once won tickets to see a rock band that I loved. I got first row, just in front of the guitarist i adored. Since i know what it feels like, I was inspired by that experience to draw the scene of the girls front row at the Trapnest concert.

Question 12: Do you believe in horoscope?

Normally i don't. I ignore the typical predictions that come out every end of the year. But i like that typical Japanese thing of guessing someone's personality based on the blood type they belong to.

Question 13: What do you prefer? Long or short hair?

I like both. I don't like common things (laughs) I like originality. Yasu is original.

Question 14: Which three objects would take to a desert island?

Tobacco, paper and pencil. How crazy going to a desert island to draw (laughs) Oh, and CD! I can't live without music! Oh, only three things... this is so difficult...

Question 15: If you opened a business, what would it be?

A decoration store like Sabrina, second hand items from the 60s and 70s.

Question 16: What novels do you like?

"Good moorning , sadness" by Sagan. It's my inspiration, i also like the mystery novel "Eien no ko" by Arata Tendō. I cried too much

Question 17: What films do you like?

So many...! The ones i rewatched the most are "Gattaca", "Death in Venice" and "Velvet Goldmine"

Question 18: And TV shows?

I barely watch TV. Well, i don't have time.

Question 19: Do you surf the internet?

Sometimes. Since there's a fanpage, i visit it to read the comments

Misato: There is so much new information for me too.

Part 3 of 3 coming soon

MISATO REPORTS - 30 QUESTIONS TO AI YAZAWA (1 to 8)

Hi, this is Misato. Today i've the pleasure and the great opportunity to interview Ai Yazawa, author of the series. Next you will discover things that were not known until now.

Question 1: Who is your favorite character?

I don't have a preference for anyone. I love them all. < i don't know how to translate "que no se diga" but it means that no one can tell her anything for preferring one character or another > (laughs)

Question 2: Which character is more difficult to draw?

Hachi. But lately she's got a sweeter expression and a more femenine body, so it's getting easier every time. Before se had a mix between a small-town girl and lack of femininity that made it more complicated. Regarding characters that I find it difficult to draw for personality reasons...nobody

Question 3: What character would you like to be your lover?

Um, as a lover i don't know, but to fall in love I would choose Takumi. Love, the more complicated it is, the more you fight for it. To get married, instead, maybe I would choose Kyosuke, because he has a < here it says "machista" which means "misogynist" but i think it could be a translation error and really meaning "masculine"> side (laughs). See, he gets his girlfriend to cook him fried eggs (laughs)

Question 4: Who would you have as a friend?

Shoji and Hachi. I would love to take care of Hachi. Well, I couldn't stop looking out for her. Shoji is the typical guy with whom you have a good time and that never gives you a bad face. It's important not liking i'm as a boyfriend (laughs)

Question 5: Who would you like to be family with?

I would like Ren and Reira to be my older siblings. And as younger siblings i would have Shin and Misato. Imagine what a scene of beauties! If Junko was my older sister, maybe she would be scolding me all day and it could be a bit annoying (laughs). I prefer taking care of others.

Question 6: Which boyfriend do you like the most for Hachi?

Well, i think it would be Takumi. You are going to think that I have a predilection for Takumi (laughs) Asano, Shoji and Nobu don't fit my ideal man idea.

Question 7: If you were a man, who would you have as a girlfriend?

Hachi without hesitation! I would gladly take care of her. Even if she put me in the middle of her hurricane, I wouldn't have a problem. I wish I could became Takumi so I could date Hachi (laughs)

Question 8: Is there a character with whom you feel identified?

There are parts of me in each one of them. People aorund me say that i'm like Junko, but i think i'm not. I'm too soft with everyone (laughs)

Misato: This is not over yet!

Part 2 of 3 coming soon
