Fu “Is Ikki Kajiwara drawing manga?”
Fu “XX Phenomenon” and many other things come up, so I wrote “Manga for the exam” (laughs).
E “When did you decide to become a manga artist?”
Ara: “I think it was after I entered design school. After graduating from high school, I entered design school, and since I didn’t have a job, I thought I was in a great place, so I decided to become a manga artist and started bringing in manga. ……
Small “But I really thought that, I really thought that. I wondered how someone like him became a manga artist (laughs).
–Oh, this was also on a postcard, but I heard that when you sent New Year’s cards to manga artists and musicians at New Year’s, you got a reply from Mr. Araki, and a quick one at that.
Araki: It’s already been 2 years since JoJo has begun being serialized. However, without forgetting what it was like to be a newcomer, I’ll press on!!
Why did I decide to set Part 4’s story in 1999, the near future? (Note: JoJo 6251 was released in 1993.) Well, it’s suppose to continue after Part 3, and I figured “1999” could add some type of “turn of the century” feel to it. I was also originally thinking of depicting a world after death, but didn’t think anybody could relate to it.
At times I’m on a roll when it comes to coming up with ideas, and other times, it’s hard for me to come up with anything. So whenever I am on a roll, when the ideas start cascading, I take advantage of that moment to try to write down everything for later use. I’ve never experienced a “slump” (the time a mangaka cannot draw anything, and gets nowhere), but there are times where I don’t FEEL like doing anything. Everyone feels like that at some point, right? I always have so much work that if you ask me it it’s tough, I’d say it very much is.
