An anime adaptation! I didn’t think it would come to this when I exposed my idea three years ago to the owner of a cafe in Yokohama Chinatown. Chewing sunflower seeds, I told him, “Nobunaga is a gun, so how about calling it Nobunagun?” The title is very important. When we have meetings with the anime staff, the world and the settings, which were limited when I was thinking about it alone, expanded in an instant. I can feel the whole thing coming to life, and I enjoy it very much. I want to see how Shio and the others move around freely after being released from the pages, and I would like everyone to see it as well. Although in this show, there are no tanuki, giants, swimming club members, or thirteen handsome brothers, there are monsters!
