Interview with Izumi Kitta

Q1
What did you think when you heard Watamote would be animated?
A1
I was so glad! Because when I was reading the manga on a train alone, I could not keep from laughing. I was very embarrassing then, too. I was looking forward to see Tomoko moving and talking, because she was too adorable!

Q2
About your role, where do you think you will place an importance when you act as Tomoko?
A2
She has a very dirty mouth. So I’ll be careful not to make her just an awful girl grumbling. I would like to make her a cute girl pretending to be tough, in order to be loved by everyone.

Q3
Please give some kind advice to Tomoko, who is struggling everyday.
A3
Tomoko, I was also shy and timid in front of people before. I was hiding behind my mom when I made an order because I couldn’t speak with a sales clerk. But look at me now! I can speak, sing, and dance in front of people!!! So you are also OK. There’s no need to rush.

Q4
In the end, please give a message to fans who are looking forward to Watamote broadcasting.
A4
I’m sure that everyone laughs when they read the manga. Such a manga, Watamote is going to be animated!! I’m dying because Tomoko is too adorable. Please enjoy Watamote world that is too pitiful in a good way, I mean it is too fun.

  1. Can you help me find the info for the “Yandere Boys” ED? I’ve been looking around everywhere and trying to use artificial translators online but it isn’t working…
