Announcer Hisanori Yoshida sits down for a special series of conversations with manga creators.

For August 2026, we’re joined by Izumi Takemoto, creator of Aoi-chan Panic! and Nekome～Waku, as well as the character designer for the TV anime Apocalypse Hotel.

In the fourth installment of this five-part series, we dive into the long-running Nekome～Waku, Yumimi Mix—the work that first introduced Takemoto’s manga to Yoshida—and the world of digital drawing.

And what exactly is a “braided-hair brush”?
(Here, “brush” refers to the digital brush tools used in software such as Photoshop.)
