I have long wanted to translate this 1997 interview with Keita Amemiya concerning the production of Nanatsu Kaze no Shima Monogatari. I did my best to maintain the format in which it is presented in Enix's Picture Imagination Book. You can browse the translated pages here.

I also seized the opportunity to extract and compile Gaupu's dream sequences, consisting of unique stop-motion animation sequences which have, much like the game itself, remained in relative obscurity and beg to be enjoyed by a much wider audience.

Also, while I'm on the topic, here are some rare images of Gaupu's one-of-a-kind clay sculpture, part of Amemiya's private collection. It was photographed exclusively for the no. 11 issue of the Saturn Fan Magazine. I wonder if he still has it?
