Kubo and people who voice the anime Jump Festa 2012 interview
How Kubo named Ginjou
Kubo: Tsukishima's solitude is an important point.
----
Kubo sensei creates powers by their images/impressions.
-Tsukishima's solitude is a key.
The book that Tsukishima is reading is "The Return of Aion" by George Kirian
-He thought of it when requested by the anime staff for "even just the cover...". He thought of a title for a book Tsukishima's most likely to read.
-Aion (ancient Greek) refers to a period of time, a generation a century, a person's lifetime.
- Kirian is derived from an actual person.
Ginjou came to Sensei first by his looks.
There's no meaning in Tsukishima's name. Tsukishima came to Sensei by his looks and name at the same time. With an imagery of "he wields a beautiful sword", so he thought he was a shinigami but he made him appear here.
The panel of 477 that was shown was of Ichigo looking at the fallen Ginjou.
Search for the great artist corner:
- Morita san draws Ichigo's mask stylishly.
- Orikasa san draws new hair Rukia fussing cutely, in chibi-ish style (deforme). It was very good and she was so cute.
- Touchi drew Ginjou (er.. he looks like "GORGO", and looks like in realistic comics)
- The unexpected twist was Ono D. He draws 20 heads tall Tsukishima thin and loooong.
Kubo says, that the lost shinigami substitute arc was always dark and was a tiring story. He thanks the readers for sticking even though it is like that.
The clear files were the same as the ones sold on Harajuku Bankai event.
How Kubo named Ginjou
"Why he chose this member as the shinigami who came to the real world? Sensei says 'Those who have a deep relationship with Ichigo. I thought, the only ones who will come to save Ichigo are these guys only! But I've had confusions about putting Ikkaku (laugh)'"
"'Kuugo's was named as a pair to Ichigo. Tsukishima-san was truly created many years ago. He could've appeared as a shinigami."
What sensei means by "to match" is the pronunciation "Ichi-go // Kuu-go"
Because the meaning of their name is totally different :Ichigo / 一護 --> One who protect // Kuugo / 空吾 --> Empty (hollow) self
