Jin: "I hate summer." {"Kagerou Daze" lyric reference}

Kagepro creator and writer Jin WAS AND IS involved with writing for the Kagepro manga.
from this interview, 2k16: http://x0401x.tumblr.com/post/178499525294/
Ene: Now, Jin-san, //about the fact that /you are in charge of the manga/ "Kagerou Daze"//... speaking frankly, aren’t you slacking?
Jin (2k16): No, it’s not like I’m slacking. /In order for us to continue with the series named “Kagerou Daze” in an even more interesting way, we’re going through all sorts of preparations./
Ene: Hoho. What would that be, specifically?
Jin: “Kagerou Daze” has related works beside the manga. For example, in the novel, anime, etc., /the stories have developments completely different from the manga/. I’m //aiming for a means to have people enjoy them through /delicately/ /interconnecting/ these series /and the manga/ "Kagerou Daze"//, which is why we’re taking a publication break (*this was in 2k16). The latest novel volume will also be released at the end of August (2k16), though...
Ene: Heeh~. I don’t get it all that well, but you’re being pretty damn complicated with that novel and anime stuff, huh?
Jin: Yes. I’m often told so.
Ene: By the way, //is this work something you couldn’t have done while /maintaining the serialization/ of the manga//? //Isn’t /YOUR WORK PACE/ a bit too slow!?//
Jin: I have no words to reply with.
Ene: Hey, is there anything you want to say to the readers?
Jin: I am really sorry...
CERTAIN PARTS OF KAGEPRO FANDOM, 2k19: anyway, Jin isn't involved with the manga at all ,,,,, ,,,,, ,,,,,,
those of us who knew ALL ALONG that HE IS:
those of us: STOP. SPREADING. MISINFORMATION. /PLEASE/
I’ve been kind of thinking about this lately, but I believe that there’s nothing as ordinary or formated as the rock music of nowadays. For example, I think that VOCALOID and anime songs are very much rock. Looking back on time, rock has been heavily criticised and people have said that it wasn’t music, but a lot of people were wildly enthusiastic about it. I really like this sort of culture, so I was burning at the fact that there are people who hate anime songs or VOCALOID, or who don’t even listen to them in the first place. Like, “No, there are good ones, y’know?”

Jin had THE ENDING OF THE STORY DECIDED FROM THE BEGINNING.
Due to this, he couldn’t introduce new characters even though he’d always wanted to.
He’s been writing the sequel while thinking that if it turns out impossible to publish, then so be it. Kagerou Project Japan-only event information compliation; 2019 - event information from a Japanese native fan
Jin also mentioned that he took a lot of Sidu’s ideas into KagePro.
Trivia from Jin & Sidu (Spoon 2d1 magazine Vol. 44) [2013]
Sidu and Jin really [get] along well with each other and haven’t really had any kind of conflicts before.

Ene: All right, this is an arrangement due to /the manga "Kagerou Daze"/ being in the middle of a publication break.
Shintarou: Yeah.
Ene: The two of us were put in charge of an interview article, so to say... Huh? Master, your face is somewhat restless. Having diarrhea?
Shintarou: No! By the way, this is weird, isn’t it!? A publication break means we’re on vacation too, right? Why did we have to be called over when it’s so damn hot?
Ene: It can’t be helped! This is a reduction of personnel cost. Everyone is at their wit's end everywhere, so please understand.
Shintarou: T-That’s how it is...?
Ene: That’s how it is! Look, look, time is short, so I’ll just start it up already.
Shintarou: Sure, sure.
Ene: That being said, //author Jin-san//, we will be in your care today!
Jin: Yes, I’ll be in your care too.
Shintarou: Got a moment?
Ene: Aaah! Geez! What’s gotten into you since earlier?! I told you we’re short on time, didn’t I!?
Shintarou: I mean, eeh!? We’re gonna interview this guy!? Us!?
Ene: You don’t have to call him "this guy", do you!? Even though he’s rotten, /he’s the original creator of "Kagerou Daze*" [*indicating the manga, spelled specifically as 'Kagerou Daze'!]/! In other words, he’s our rightful parent. Our rightful parent.
[from 2011 to 2012], all of the characters had been made. I had suddenly been told by Jin-san, “These characters will come out next, so please make as many prototypes as possible for them” and from then, we made “Konoha no Sekai Jijou”.

This is Jin, the writer. We've now made it to the illustrious ten-volume mark in the Kagerou Daze manga. It's all thanks to Mahiro-sensei's hard work and the support all of you provide. Here's hoping that you'll continue to wonder how the story will turn out. I'll keep working hard on it.
