As far as I’m concerned, the return match is Download: Namida-Amidabutsu wa Ai no Uta, but…
Shinsaku Kôzuma: A lot of things happened on Download as well. I only helped out on it. Kanada did the character designs, Noda did the animation direction, and Rintarô was the director. The three of them were really kind – way too kind for this industry, actually: the kind of people that never fought with everyone in their careers. But then, Tatsuyuki Tanaka and Kazuyoshi Yaginuma were in the staff, right? What Kanada told me is that they caused an incident.
They ignored Noda’s corrections and swapped the corrected drawings for in-betweens. Kanada told me the one who did this was Yagi. Later, I asked Yaginuma himself why he had done that, and he said it was because the girls in Noda’s corrections weren’t cute enough! It’s the same thing that happened between Otsuka and Miyazaki on Future Boy Conan! (laughs)
Apparently, there was a cult installed on the floor just above Download’s studio – I think it was Aum or something like that. Yaginuma and Tanaka sneaked into the studio at night and did the in-betweens themselves instead of applying the corrections.
