Blaster Q&A with Hajime Kanzaka Vo 2, July 1993
Original Japanese link here.
TAMIKI: "If the serialization of SP continues for a long time, Lina's age is calculated to be different from the main story, isn't it?"
KANZAKA: That's right~. ...... SP's are not as time-consuming as the main series. ......
DUST: It's like "Sazae●san" (laughs).
TAMIKI: "Please tell me the status of Lina, Naga, and Zelgadis.
KANZAKA: Lina is probably "Fire". Naga is Water to Ice. Zelgadis is Earth, and Amelia is exclusively Fire.
TAMIKI: "Is it intentional that the long version alternates between "Red-Eyed Demon King," "Seigram Relationship," and "Red-Eyed Demon King?"
KANZAKA: No, it was a spur-of-the-moment thing.
TAMIKI: "What is your favorite spell?"
KANZAKA: If it is a spell, it would be ...... "Ragna Blade" or "Giga Slave (complete version)".
TAMIKI - "How good is your eyesight?"
......The question is suddenly off the subject. ......
KANZAKA: About 1.0 with glasses, and about 0.01 with the naked eye.
TAMIKI: Next is the most popular question this time. Is there any plan for Sylphiel's reappearance?
KANZAKA: Not at the moment. But there is a possibility that she may appear in the future.
TAMIKI: "When Lina refers to Gourry as Leon when she runs away from Rahannim, is that in anticipation of the appearance of Leon later in the manga version of Slayers?"
KANZAKA: ...... No, I wasn't thinking about it at all. It was only now that you mentioned it that I thought, well, I must have used it before (laughs).
DUST: ............ haha haha ............
TAMIKI: That's a scary story ............
KAGURA: ............ Is that how it ends? ............
KANZAKA: This story left the biggest impression on me, but the world is in a recession right now, so I can't publish it in the afterword (laughs).
DUST: I think the ghost story itself is out of season. ......
TAMIKI: No, it will be just right by the time the members read this interview, you know.
KAGURA: What kind of fan letters are you happy to receive?
KANZAKA: Fan letters are always nice, though.
TAMIKI: It is even better if there is a gift enclosed. ......
KANZAKA: I am certainly happy to receive a gift enclosed with a letter, but I feel as if I should give something back to the recipient.
It would be easier to just send a letter saying, "Good luck.”
