fall
You are so, even when falling." (Byakuya Kuchiki)
rain fall because-of-you
Thank you, Rukia... Because of you, the rain has stopped falling.
teacher sweet falling-in-love
I had a lot of things I wanted to do… I want to be a teacher…I also want to be an astronaut…and also make my own cake shop…I want to go to the sweets bakery and say “I want one of everything”, ohhhh I wish I could live life five times over…Then I’d be born in five different places, and I’d stuff myself with different food from around the world…I’d live five different lives with five different occupations…and then, for those five times…I’d fall in love with the same person…
hard love particular scene time
If I want to draw more in a particular scene that I think is important, because of time I cannot. That's hard for me. But I've always wanted to be a manga-ka, so I'm doing what I love.
hardest weekly
The hardest thing about being a manga-ka is that it's a weekly thing.
love
I've always wanted to be a manga-ka, so I'm doing what I love.
All the important drawings I do myself. Every single character is also done by me.
drawings single
I have three assistants, but there isn't a head assistant. All the important drawings I do myself. Every single character is also done by me.
draw scene time
When I draw the scene that I'd been dreaming about or had always wanted to draw, that is the time that I'm happiest.
death life
For me, life and death are very important themes. There is no life without death. That's why it's very important to me.
believe enjoyable message people talented
The message is that if you believe in what you create, it's enjoyable and people will follow. The talented mangaka should know that; otherwise, no one would read or enjoy it. So believe in yourself. Believing in yourself is important.
looks sulking enough
So stop sulking. You're not old enough for the cool, tortured look.
bleach do-not-fear
Those who do not fear the sword they wield have no right to wield a sword at all. ~Shuhei Hisagi
heart skulls tears
What is this "heart"? If I tear open that chest of yours, will I see it there? If I smash open that skull of yours, will I see it there? ~ulquiorra
