When I was with Artmic, Mr. Suzuki (Artmic’s President) came up with the idea for a SF-genre film based on Shigoto-nin (“Fixers”, a samurai TV series), saying that ladies will be wearing armor that shows their bodylines. The first thing he showed me was a promo video for a band called ASIA, and it had images in it of a lady moving around wearing mecha-esque gear. I thought it would have been better and more futuristic if she had been wearing a full-body armor.

The armor images helped me to create the character images who would wear them.
