"Please tell us some of your happy memories as an editor and some of the not-so-happy times.
Yokoyama: The most important time is the editorial meeting with Takahashi-sensei. Every week, I speak with her about "what kind of story would be interesting to tell next...?"
I'm always delighted when she says, "That's a good idea," after hearing one word or idea that I casually mentioned. The image that came to my mind was then shaped into a story by Takahashi-sensei, and then into a manuscript. As someone who has loved reading Takahashi-sensei's works since I was a child, there is nothing more enjoyable than this.
On the other hand, there are times when she'll say "no, not quite like that," and I find myself in meetings where I am at a complete loss as to what to do and then my head would go blank and I think "what should I do?"
The other happy moment, I know this is cliche, but it's when I get to see Takahashi-sensei's name for the first time. When I read the completed work, I laugh and tell her, "It's funny!" Then I'd get to go home with a relieved look and a smile on my face. I think moments like that are irreplaceable."
And per Furinkan, a reminder what "name" refers to here:
"A "name" (γγΌγ /neemu) in manga parlance is a "rough sketch", a quick layout of a page which is then inked over. The images shown in the articles are not "name", rather they are the finished images that were published. However they are framed on Takahashi's personalized paper that has her famous Maison Ikkoku piyo-piyo chick emblazoned on it. This is what her pages look like when they are submitted to the the publisher."
