■ SUPER ROBOT CHOGOKIN Glen Lagan

――Please tell us about SUPER ROBOT CHOGOKIN Grenragan, which will finally be released in January 2013.

Saka埜:When yourself to see the animation, it's to really care about the drawing. This scene, "I wonder who is drawn," or, or "Do not have amazing good movement." It feelings Tteyuu as they want to three-dimensional is I'm lead to motivation. It was one of the video work that satisfies them Lagann is. So I was eventually thought that I would like to three-dimensional.

- Mr. Amemiya at the time production, How was it?

Amemiya:At the time, Lagann is it was a "" Ali "also depicts how" basically. At the time, I mainly have painted the original mechanical action, some of the story number is also responsible for such mechanical animation director. Among them, because the comparatively studio was free, I was not angry even if painted. That have done freely, was not quite connected to the motivation. At that time, it not in the setting screen in the face of Gurren Lagann was not angry even draw a "lips" is I was happy (laughs).

Saka埜:Can it is the charm of Lagann. Is it even there, the three-dimensional object of Lagann is a variety of interpretation until now is it because you have been commercialized.

Amemiya:Many of the three-dimensional object can be commercialized, respectively I also different direction of arrangement.

Saka埜:I agree. But is interesting, should be designed in late is pretty much (laughs). While thinking where to emphasize as a point of design, because I do not go unless we exceed the various Lagann already exist.

Amemiya:It's different from also glad every time in conjunction with the animation. Personally, I have a good feeling there is no correct answer. No, you will feel it ... that'll look the other each correct answer towards the fan.

Saka埜:SUPER ROBOT CHOGOKIN is a game for himself. I think I'm pretty naughty ......... How about looking at a three-dimensional object again?

Amemiya:It's detail is good where you are warped of this shin, wonderful Toka calf of the line (laughs).

Saka埜:Thank you!

Amemiya:This area is to interpretation that is not drawn in the main, I think that good. At the same it's this time of Gurren have adopted the skin color that conforms to the anime.

Saka埜:There is stuck from the original design.

Amemiya:If this part is commercialized, I roughly mechanic ish color ring often. The reason I do not even do not know, but I'm right now stone Hiroyuki director made want to do the "skin color of the face of the robot" was Lagann. Even though I thought I kana ...... not do that it is commodity, the same color of the product and finally in the play (laughs).

Saka埜:When you look at the face that is painted in metallic systems, I felt myself to something uncomfortable. But I look it is okay.
When I was in charge of designing the GUNBUSTER of the SOUL OF CHOGOKIN, I said that I wanted the body to be the same gray as the video work, but in order to give it a powerful and profound feeling as a three-dimensional object, it is a gun metallic color. It has also been commercialized in.

Amemiya:You might be restless when you see people who do not know the Lagann. But, actually it's a flesh-colored.

Saka埜:What I mean not enough, because I felt I Do different, had been especially face decided to try to do with skin color absolutely.

Amemiya:Nante anime color is allowed even in the three-dimensional object, it was a good age (laughs).

■ Crossover joint

--- One of the features of SUPER ROBOT CHOGOKIN Glen Lagan is "Crossover Joint". Could you explain this system first?

Saka埜:The crossover joint is a system that allows you to replace the armament and equipment of each robot beyond the work. With the so-called common joint, for example, the God Scrambler of SUPER ROBOT CHOGOKIN SHIN MAZINGER Z can be attached to Glen Lagann.

Amemiya:It is very good in the wrong way (laughs). In a sense, it is the play seems to Gainax work.

Saka埜:The combination of God scrambler holder and Lagann Among them, it has no sense of incongruity (laughs).

Amemiya:Where do you ideas that came out this? From the beginning?

Saka埜:When was it ...? I think it was in the middle of designing ... I don't really remember the specific time (laughs). We released SUPER ROBOT CHOGOKIN SHIN MAZINGER Z in May 2012, and the elbow joints and clicky joints that we used there were really good. Therefore, I decided to adopt the same structure for Glen Lagann and GUNBUSTER. There was also the merit that the design period could be shortened by sharing the mechanism (laughs).

Amemiya:So it's now in a common joint.

S:Or "it's be reclassified and rocket punch of Mazinger", "Well, also go God scrambler Dah? This, interesting Jan!" Climax is talk of and planning personnel, incorporate as a design, now in the form of a formal specification .

Amemiya:This I think the width of the play has been increased steadily in.

- The Amemiya's manner, you were Lagann, do you think fit When you have what the robot and the crossover?

Amemiya:No, if the Lagann, I hope better of guy that does not fit rather. Uncomfortable feeling is I want to see.

Saka埜:By the way, I guess I feel a sense of discomfort is likely out you were none?

Amemiya:Eh (laughs)? Fit, such is likely of ...... God Reideen I do (ultra's Reideen) Toka. Because it is elegant shade.

- When was the weapon, how about?

Amemiya:From a generational point of view, I like Brave Series, so wouldn't it be nice to have a sword or something? As expected, I didn't do it in the main story.

Saka埜:In fact, when to have a Buster home run (bat), I thought I Do not want to let a little have a sword.

Amemiya:(In Lagann) it's bat is got to feel a likely Gili (laughs).

Saka埜:There is no sense of incongruity something be provided with (laughs).

Amemiya:But the sword, I Naa not (laughs).

Saka埜:I attached two Buster home runs to the GUNBUSTER because I wanted to give it to Glen Lagann.

Amemiya:For example, do you get even two? Amazing!

Saka埜:Also, it has not been announced yet, and this time it will be released for the first time, but we are also designing a GUNBUSTER shield for gun buster.

Amemiya:This is No way ... !?

Saka埜:That's not true (laughs). In fact, the hidden theme of the design is "Defeat BROTHERS' MANTLE." Of course, this can also be equipped to Gurren Lagann.

Amemiya:It is cool!

Saka埜:Or rather "brainstorming" of the planners, in the early "evil Nori", I had the story that you want to be equipped with a Buster shield to Lagann. Well, back in the joint also trying to common, it looks like. Thinking many things seriously that play, there evil Nori also joined, I became this. Never it is not a paranoid feeling, such as "On top of that ... that was superimposed on the superimposed a dense computing" (laughs).

Amemiya:(Laughs) It is no sense of incongruity. This cloak positional relationship something also great when mounted on Lagann.

Saka埜:Of course, it was designed according to the shape and volume of the gun GUNBUSTER, but it was difficult to make fine adjustments to the height and depth of the joint so that it would not feel uncomfortable or broken when attached to other robots.

Amemiya:It is universal (laughs).

Saka埜:Purely, "play universal cloak" wanted (laughs). It looks like Makikomeru even before the cloak like this.

Although there is a difference between two-dimensional and three-dimensional, two-dimensional and three-dimensional, the arrangement of the creator, the talk of how to make the "face" and so on talk of this time Amemiya and Mr. Sakai. Mr. Amamiya had a deep knowledge in three dimensions, and he talked with him while touching SUPER ROBOT CHOGOKIN throughout. By the way, Mr. Amamiya brought "Fumuro Effect" and put it along with Gren Lagan while posing. Next time, we will talk about “Crossover Joint”, which is one of the features of SUPER ROBOT CHOGOKIN Glenn Ragan, and a crossover illustration drawn by Mr. Amamiya derived from this.
The second time the next time you will be released on December 4. looking forward to.
