章節 124: Interview
"Are we starting right off the bat?" Utaha was a bit speechless, but still adjusted her posture formally, looking quite cooperative.
Homura also began to ask questions after typing an introduction on the document.
"Speaking of which, 'The Metronome in Love' has already ended, so it's worth paying attention to what Kasumi Utako-sensei is up to lately. So, can you give a brief explanation to the readers?"
After a brief pause, Utaha spoke up, "This question is not really important right? Doesn't everyone already know?"
Homura raised his eyebrows and continued, "Yes, readers who have been following Kasumi Utako's work should have some idea about that. So could Kasumi Utako-sensei explain the experience to us?"
"Well, because I was deeply attracted by a 'certain' work project of a 'certain' someone, I was pulled onto the pirate ship and began working with them."
Homura's eyes twitched, "This work is probably the widely circulated 'Your Name.', right? So, 'The Metronome in Love' just ended and you've working on another work, serving as a scriptwriter. For Kasumi Utako-sensei's fans, it's certainly a great joy."
"Ara~, it's a bit too much to say it's a great joy, but for an author, being involved in such a captivating work is also a kind of ultimate happiness, isn't it?" Utaha modestly said, sounding very much like a social nicety.
Homura continued, "Although everyone must be curious about Kasumi Utako-sensei's numerous collaborators, this special interview is focused on Kasumi Utako-sensei. Hence, we might not be able to satisfy everyone's curiosity. The work that Kasumi Utako-sensei is involved in is currently selling like hotcakes. Do you have any special expectations for it?"
"I can only say that 'Your Name.' will not disappoint buyers in terms of both plot and visuals. The overwhelming comments and reviews all over the internet lately have fully confirmed this. It's a work that won't make anyone regret their purchase." Utaha answered confidently.
"Great, thank you very much, Kasumi Utako-sensei. That concludes our discussion on your recent activities. Next, can we talk about your enthusiasm for your next work?"
Utaha smiled, "My debut work, 'The Metronome in Love', has happily come to an end, and the circle work I'm involved in is currently selling well. It's fortunate that the circle's leader has countless ideas in his head, which is also a very lucky thing for readers because they don't have to worry about not seeing or running out of good works."
"As a new author, I cannot do without readers' tireless support. To repay everyone, I will infuse the same... no, even more soul into my future works."
"Please continue to support me in the future!"
Homura exclaimed, "Yes! Thank you for expressing your gratitude through your work, Kasumi Utako-sensei!"
"Well, that concludes this interview! Thank you, Kasumi Utako-sensei, for taking time out of your busy schedule. Let's look forward to Kasumi Utako's brighter future!"
Homura closed the laptop and turned to face Machida, who was smiling at him. "How was it? Does Editor Machida satisfied?"
"How could I not be satisfied?" Machida walked over and patted his shoulder. "I didn't expect that Minamiya-sensei would unexpectedly be so familiar with interviews! You are so professional on this."
"It's just me messing around. No need to praise." Homura replied humbly and thought in his mind. 'Professional my ass, it's just 'copying the cat and drawing the tiger', I can still manage that much.'
"I'm also quite surprised. Homura-kun, who usually seems careless about details, is actually quite decent during interviews." Utaha also chimed in.
Homura glanced at her and said, "What about your initial answer? Was there a purpose behind it?"
Utaha smiled and said, "Your expression was so formal, I just wanted to see if I could break that."
Homura: "..."
"It's quite unexpected, though. This is the first time we've seen you so seriously. Who wouldn't be curious?" Elf said to Homura with an impressed tone. She was also getting restless with this serious atmosphere, but seeing that this was a formal interview, she had no intention of playing around.
"No matter what, this interview went quite smoothly. It's surprising how quickly we finished," Homura said, somewhat surprised.
"Ah, that's because you were the one who conducted the interview!" Machida laughed. "Previously, Shi-chan didn't accept any interviews. Even if she did, she would just brush them off like a child. So, we really owe it to Minamiya-sensei this time."
"Hmm... is that so, then I've decided. I won't accept any more interviews in the future." Utaha's temples were throbbing.
"I'm sorry, Shi-chan. I won't say it again!" Machida clasped her hands together and winked at her.
"Isn't all of that because of this 'Shi-chan' thing!" Utaha always felt that communicating with her editor was too difficult!
"Hahaha!"
Homura laughed as he watched the two interact. He thought that having editors like this was quite good, as long as they weren't like Maeno from 'Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun'.
"Machida-san, is there anything else?" Homura asked.
Due to his unexpected encounter with Muramasa, he was now running out of time. He needed to hurry up and finish the project plan for the work.
"Hmm..." Machida held her arms and thought for a moment. "Nope!"
"Then... shall we go back?" Homura turned his head and asked the two girls for their opinions.
"Eh~~ I still want to play around a bit!" Elf just cried out.
"Going home directly?" Utaha said disappointedly.
Elf and Utaha could fully understand each other at this moment.
However, Elf still felt that she really had bad chemistry with Muramasa. Since meeting her today, many things have made her unhappy.
"Now there's nothing fun to do, right? We can only take a walk or buy something..." Homura actually considered what they could do for fun, but he ultimately decided, "Let's save our playtime for the Golden Week. There will be plenty of time to play then."
"Alright, that's a good idea." Both girls nodded in agreement.
"Let's go then." Utaha led the way.
"How heartless, you didn't even say goodbye to me..." Machida grumbled quietly.
He chuckled to himself. Utaha probably didn't have much choice to deal with this editor, so she decided to assert herself a bit by acting like this.
"Machida-san, we leaving."
After bidding farewell, the group left the publisher building. They didn't see Muramasa again, perhaps she hadn't come out yet, or maybe she had already left.
But since they had made the promise, she would come tomorrow, right?
Tomorrow they would decide whether she would join Another Dimension or not, and then it would be time for Muse's performance!
And now... it was time for him to step up his game!
