Akadot: What's the status of the Trigun Game?

YN: Ahhh... That's still far off. Please forget about it for now.

Akadot: Are you working on any other projects right now?

YN: Gungrave is coming out on September 17th. I'm the one who started the project. I wanted to do it on my own, because I love games.

Akadot: Is there anything you would like to work on?

YN: For the moment, I'm really busy. Trigun has almost reached the end. I can't think of anything else right now.

Akadot: Is there anyone you would like to work with?

YN: I have no idea. I never thought about it.

Akadot: I heard you like WWE. Is that correct?

YN: Yes, that's right. I like it a lot

Vince MacmahonAkadot: Who are you a fan of?

YN: I like Vince Macmahon.

Akadot: In Trigun, was there a wrestler you used as model for "Monev the Gale"?

YN: No, there wasn't. Please read his name in reverse. This is from "VENOM".

Akadot: Which wrestler would you want to play him if it becomes a live action movie?

YN: I never thought about that. I would say Brock Lesnar...?

Akadot: Do you have any message for your American fans?

YN: The support of everyone in America for the Japanese figures and other works makes up a very large part of my current success. I'm very grateful.
