Modeling writer Asakuma Toshio interview harboring the soul of the character to the animals
The animals have taken on the appearance of ONE PIECE characters!
Facial expressions and gestures while comical, its modeling, texture is realistic ......
Meanwhile, no one figure series that did not imagine
"Figuarts ZERO Artist Special".
"ONE PIECE" creator Eiichiro Oda and anthropomorphized animal figures
I was born in collaboration with the famous modeling writer Asakuma Toshio Mr.
"Artist Special" is, in the large-scale model of about 20 ~ 30cm
Following the series expansion, easy is now collected in a compact
New series one after another in the line-up of about 10 ~ 15cm size.

We asked Asakuma to look back on these new and old lineups and talk about his commitment to animal design and ONE PIECE characters.
- Are you on how the concept of animals of each character?
Especially impressive ones and, if such an episode of the Oda sensei, please tell us, including a few examples.
I've always been a ONE PIECE fan, so I thought it would be fun to turn the crew into animals, and I had the animals decided to a certain extent.
When I received the invitation of collaboration from Mr. Oda is, It was another happy to come true that I had imagined.

Is when the first of the gang of production will be provided with a meeting with Mr. Oda, went decided to consult from unbiased I was thinking animal.
Troubled have been Usopp (chameleon), was determined to stunning at the suggestion of Oda's.
Robin image of How can bird was considered in the panther, and the thing to falcon in.
This is also It was tried Once satisfied that "aha" to make, I think that it was good because I could have shed Kurohyo later ace.
Frankie, rhino is good to out to work I decided to start gorilla! Was the immediate answer and "It is a rhinoceros Speaking of armed" contact the place to Oda's thought.
   
I asked to leave for a little bit after the character.
For some reason, I easily imagine ONE PIECE characters as animals, and so far I haven't had any trouble deciding which animal to make them.
Almost, it has been produced in the first to float's animal.
- In that animal of up to now, please tell me a fondness character (favorite character).
Brook is the minute you have a hard time it takes even the most time, I like.
White beard and ace is rice also the meaning of the memorial, went into considerable feeling.
   
MONKEY.D.LUFFY as Monkey released in July, new sizes have been adopted, but how about it?
 
  Collected I think that it is a good size to align with.
Labor itself of production does not change, but it is good that the scale is easy to reproduce between the characters.
White beard is what was very too large. (Lol)
After production this time of Luffy, it was interesting and quite scale the match and align with this white beard.
New and old contrast image
- Please tell us a commitment point of Don Quixote de Flamingo as flamingo and Shanks as Lion.
Don Quixote de Flamingo as Flamingo

Anyway, evil seems to!
Although wings was Ru's is very work, is the sunglasses of the most obsessed with.
I think that it has become quite Rashiku Doflamingo in sunglasses and tongue.

  Shanks as Lion

We try to be the stately standing figure.
Also in that respect Lion was the best.

--When transforming ONE PIECE characters into animals, is there anything you pay particular attention to in terms of design compared to Asakuma's original works?
Usually a lot to make a carefree animals, also from Oda's, but it's also what was said, "It is Luffy monkey may be something like sipping a cup of tea in the Table in", in this series aims to sportiness you.
In particular, in the expression to consciousness, it will be similar to the considerably character in the inner end of eyebrow and eye.
- Is there a character you want to try to future animal of?
I have a lot, but ...
By force is a buggy to name.
I want to make right away, but looking forward to the re-emergence of become more flashy plays a Nanabuumi entering.
Nanabuumi is I want to align all!
- Finally, do you have a message to the user of everyone.
The concept of this series, as previously illustrated on the cover, is that animals borrow costumes from characters and play ONE PIECE Piece.
Because so it is not to fight weapons are expressed, such as a tree.
If you enjoy the way animals are fully made to cosplay hard, and I think.
