We haven\u2019t seen each other since Crunchyroll Expo. How has it been with all the excitement from <em>Kino\u2019s Journey to Sword Art Online [Alternative: Gun Gale Online]<\/em>?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Sigsawa-sensei:<\/strong> I\u2019m very happy because last year I was able to come here for Kino\u2019s Journey and I was hoping I could come back to the US with the main character of GGO and I got my wish.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Regarding GGO, you put a lot of detail into the guns, the caliber, and especially creating this world. What was it like being able to see this world come to life in the anime?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">There actually is a lot more I would\u2019ve liked to see. However, the top priority for the anime staff and what the audience was expecting to see was LLENN. So in that context, I think the show was done properly and overall a success. Of course, as a gun nut, I would\u2019ve loved to see more of the firearms aspect, but as an anime writer, I think this show was done properly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Speaking of a gun nut, you made a cameo appearance in episode three. There was a light novel author who sponsored the Squad Jam. How did that come about? Did you write that self-introduction in the novel as well?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">When I was writing the novel, the sponsor was in fact my alter ego. During the anime\u2019s production meeting, they asked me \u201cSince we\u2019re putting this character in, would you be interested in performing? Maybe in voicing the character?\u201d and that\u2019s how that happened!<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4097\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4097\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"4097\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/anitrendz.net\/news\/2018\/11\/12\/interview-sword-art-online-alternative-ggo-ft-llenns-va-author-producer\/img_8346\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8346.jpg?fit=3024%2C4032&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"3024,4032\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone X&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1530910011&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.25&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_8346\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8346.jpg?fit=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8346.jpg?fit=696%2C928&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-4097 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8346.jpg?resize=225%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8346.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8346.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8346.jpg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8346.jpg?w=2088&amp;ssl=1 2088w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4097\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">via Aniplex of America<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Anime Trending to Kusunoki-san: You played Karen \u201cLLENN\u201d Kohiruimaki which was your first major role in the industry. Was it hard playing the main character that\u2019s a part of a very large franchise?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Kusunoki-san<\/strong>: I did get to play the main character in a different show one cour before, so this would be my second main character role. I always have been an SAO fan, and I also knew that everyone loved the franchise so there was a bit of pressure there. However, I was very happy going through all twelve episodes with Karen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>On the topic of LLENN, was it difficult to voice two seemingly difficult characters? One being Karen Kohiruimaki; the stoic, quiet girl, and the other being LLENN; the hyperactive cute bunny girl<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">It was a challenge because LLENN and Karen are practically polar opposites as characters. In addition to that, I also performed P-Chan as well, but it was really fun as a challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>We of Anime Trending are aware that you sang the ending theme song \u201cTo See the Future\u201d for <em>Sword Art Online [Alternative: Gun Gale Online]<\/em>. Interestingly enough, your song was ranked first on our charts as well as our website! We wanted to know what it was like singing that song as well as how the opportunity came for you to have this single.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">This was actually supposed to be the character song for LLENN, and was also my first time doing a solo character song. I discussed it with the song writer a lot because I really wanted Karen\u2019s personality within LLENN to really show up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Just to clarify, the character, Karen \u201cLLENN\u201d Kohiruimaki, along with your character song dominated our charts for the duration of the Spring 2018 anime season! Congratulations!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Kusunoki-san<\/strong>: Thank you so much!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Sigsawa-san to Anime Trending<\/strong>: Is it a female character poll?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Yes, it is a \u201cTop 10 Female Character\u201d poll in which her character dominated the charts.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Kusunoki-san<\/strong>: I\u2019m honored to hear it. Thank you very much!<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Anime Trending to Suzuki-san<\/strong>: <em>Sword Art Online<\/em> is such a huge franchise and the studio that spearheaded the project in the beginning was A-1 Pictures. However, this time around the project was animated by Studio 3Hz. What was it like producing this anime? Did you interact with A-1 Pictures?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Suzuki-san<\/strong>: Actually this was a parallel production to <em>Sword Art Online Alicization<\/em>. It wouldn\u2019t have been practical for one studio to work on both projects at the same time, so Studio 3Hz was tapped in to handle Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online. Studio 3Hz is different from A-1 Pictures, in the fact that it\u2019s a smaller studio. They do put in a lot of love into their work and it was actually my first time working with Studio 3Hz. They definitely did not disappoint as they made an adaptation that was very faithful to Mr. Sigsawa\u2019s light novels as well as having a high production value for an anime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Have any of the past anime projects under Studio 3Hz had any influence on Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online project?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Yes, actually they did have an influence. It was a coincidence of sorts but before <em>Gun Gale Online<\/em>, Studio 3Hz worked on the animation for Kuroboshi Kouhaku-sensei&#8217;s (the illustrator for <em>Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online<\/em>) character designs for another anime called <em>Princess Principal<\/em>. It had a positive influence on the execution of the GGO project. I was also impressed by the thorough and high quality work Studio 3Hz did on projects like <em>Sora no Method (Celestial Method)<\/em> and <em>Dimension W.<\/em> It was for this reason I thought &#8220;if we went with Studio 3Hz for the GGO projects, I trust they could do the same.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4098\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4098\" style=\"width: 715px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"4098\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/anitrendz.net\/news\/2018\/11\/12\/interview-sword-art-online-alternative-ggo-ft-llenns-va-author-producer\/img_8345-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8345-1.jpg?fit=3823%2C2505&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"3823,2505\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone X&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1530909886&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.16666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_8345\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8345-1.jpg?fit=300%2C197&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8345-1.jpg?fit=696%2C456&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-4098 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8345-1.jpg?resize=696%2C457&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8345-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C671&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8345-1.jpg?resize=300%2C197&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8345-1.jpg?resize=768%2C503&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8345-1.jpg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/anitrendz.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_8345-1.jpg?w=2088&amp;ssl=1 2088w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4098\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">via Aniplex of America<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Anime Trending to All<\/strong>: Any final remarks you\u2019d like to say to fans across the world?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Sigsawa-sensei<\/strong>: Thank you very much for enjoying it!
