SHIN MAKOKU DAILY NEWS[edit]

Interview, Asuka magazine (2014-01-24)


G(GEG[1]): As an excuse to celebrate the 100th manga chapter drawn by Temari-san, I'm having a reunion with a person I haven't seen in a long time. This bring back memories...

T (Takabayashi): Are you Captain Okita[2]? .... Ehm, how are the ASUKA readers doing? I don't even know what my job is anymore but I'm Takabayashi.

G: But seriously, a pig that doesn't fly is just a pig, and a writer who doesn't write, is just a waste of a human being.

T: Wai..., GEG! You're insulting every writer in the nation who's in a writing-slump!?... I mean, it's fine to say that about me, because without a doubt, I'm a waste of a human being. (tears)

G: Well, of course. My harsh words are only for you, Takabayshi. Good grief, stop saying stuff like that this early in the year! And on top of that, we're here to celebrate the 100 chapters of the maruma manga.

T: Yeah? And who started it?

G: No, but you see, it's 100 chapters! Isn't that awesome!? While you're just spacing out, Temari-san is little by little trying her best to make this series really successful. Ah, enough, I want to remove the dirt from under Temari-san's fingernails, boil it and serve it to you as a drink.

T: Temari-san! Next time, give me the nail dirt PLEASE... wait GEG, lately you've been really mean to me.

G: No actually, it's not "lately". I've been like this for a long time.

T: It's worse now.

G: Well, since we came here to celebrate, and so that I don't have to say this again, as a celebration comment, please write a new manuscript. Come on, come on , come on, do it right here and now!

T: ...EH? Can't I write it while hiding at home?

G: It's just that you lock yourself at home and don't even pick up the phone. No, no... you write it now. C'mon! Right here! Now!

T: ... I've never seen an editor who's such a tyrant...

G: Alright, while Takabayashi writes it, Kadokawa bunko will make a Kyou Kara Maou advertisement. With the latest book: Kyou Kara Maou Caloria Hen II, that has been in stores since the second half of January, we have made it up to 5 books. With these 5 books you get the same amount of chapters as with 10 of the Beans Bunko books. The books have been edited and some strange jokes have been changed into new jokes. There's also new stories, that can only be found in the Kadokawa Bunko edition; stories that had not been published in the Beans Bunko books ♪ Right after these two Caloria Hen books, is where the story of the manga begins to be different from the original story. By the way, if you put those two Caloria hen books standing one next to another, you get one single landscape. The one on the right is Caloria during the afternoon, and the one on the left is nighttime.

T: Ah! So is the glowing snowflake that appears in new cover over the ruins that seem to be the Gilbit mansion ruins after what happened with the Tea Genie, Shibuya?

G: You shut up and keep writing....

T: I'm the author and you treat me like this... Ah! It's done! Hey, look, look it's done.

G: Ah, good job, ... WAIT! this story, has nothing to do with celebrating 100 CHAPTERS!

T: But you didn't tell me to include anything about 100 chapters! Well, just write 100 chapters as part of the title! Temari-san congratulations ♥!
