PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Hajime isn't a regular author. Hes a manga author.
He also illustrates his own manga, but with some help from assistances. Most manga artists get assistances once there work gets serialized and they become more popular.
Hajime Isayama's Works
- Attack on Titan (One-shot version)
- Heart Break One
- Attack on Titan (Series)
- Attack on Titan Special Episode
Attack on Titan is his most famous work and his only work that got serialized and animated.
Next I will show you translated bits and pieces of an interview that took place after Attack on Titan (One-shot) was released.
Why did you decide on giants as the theme of this work?”
ISA: Well, giants are kind of gross, aren’t they? That’s why.
“Has anything in your life changed since the series has become the focus of so much attention?”
ISA: I got a weird phone call from my bank. They were wondering about the sudden increase of funds in my savings, so they probably thought I was running some bank transfer scam. (LOL)
“Out of all the manga you’ve read, which has had the most influence on you?”
ISA: ARMS.
“Mikasa is always wearing the scarf she got from Eren. Doesn’t she get hot?”
ISA: She doesn’t wear it when it’s hot outside.
“Please tell me your basic one-month schedule.”
ISA: I take a week to storyboard and three weeks to draw.
There are a lot more questions in the interview but this presentation might be getting a bit long so...
