Sidu (Mekakucity V’s Interview re: Outer Science Q&A) [August 2014]

(bolding / italics / line breaks for spacing mine for emphasis):

In the last cut for “I’ll sneer”***

*** 「嘲笑しよう」'choushou shiyou’

the scenery, which looks like a pile of rubble Kuro Konoha is standing on top of was manufactured and thoroughly smashed.

That stuff which is piling up is the ruins of what once was

hundreds and thousands of iterations

Trivia from Jin & Sidu (Spoon 2d1 magazine Vol. 44) [2013]

Sidu and Jin really [get] along well with each other and haven’t really had any kind of conflicts before.

Jin also mentioned

that he took

A LOT OF SIDU’S IDEAS

Sidu; Kagerou Project music videos animator; 2014 Interview

Interview(er): What’s working with Jin-san like?

Sidu: Jin-san will come to me with his ideas for the story, and I’ll usually comment with a word or two of feedback; sometimes,

I might make a suggestion on how he could improve it, as well.

Sidu (interview; 2017) [official artist contributor to Kagerou Project]

in response to the question:

“──From this point on, I think the repercussion regarding “KagePro” began to broaden all at once due to the release of “Kagerou Days” four months later, so how did you take it back then?”

and:

“──It felt like the phenomenon was overtaking you.”

Sidu (interview; 2017) [official artist contributor for Kagerou Project] in response to the interviewer’s question:

Hahaha. By the way, Jin-san said that “KagePro” was “meant to seriously deceive children”. And that “it wasn’t made to please adults”.

Sidu: That’s right. (continued in quote above)

I have often heard people commenting with disdain, “that thing is aimed at children”.

But I believe that everyone makes stories influenced by things they liked as children

Sidu (interview; 2017)

Interviewer: ──I see. Indeed, after listening to this, it does feel like the movie is filled to the brim with Sidu-san’s interpretations.

Sidu: That’s why it might feel different from the light novel to the viewers. ──Jin-san said in his interview that it was something like an “official anthology”. Sidu: I think that definition hits close to home.

“The Konoha as I see him is completely detached from Haruka”
