Summary
"The named Amakusa side characters. (Continued from above.) On the other hand, side characters (especially male ones) do not require much thought in that regard, so I focus on having them make the main characters stand out more. However, since some of those characters end up completely betraying my expectations much further down the line and have more important roles, I really can't seem to let my guard down...Take Shirai, Hamazura, or Railgun's Uiharu for example! Tsushima and Nomozaki had actually already appeared in the Volume 11 color pages. However, the changes to my art from Volume 12 on make them look almost like completely different people." ― Haimura Kiyotaka
