Introduction

From this volume, I directed book construction by myself (usually it is the work of editors, but T had no objection about it. Some artists do, this is not rare thing, though...^^;). So my behave getting more - how can I call it? Independent? Selfish?

Anyway, the manga in vol3, when I draw these part on Chao (monthly magazine) it was decided Wedding Peach went Anime. So there were many problem occurred. Limone=Yanagiba and Yosuke=Vient(demon), the facts had supposed shown the end of this episord, but we (manly I *laughter*) got "stop". "Don't be a spoiler", you know. So I change here and there of the story and eventually they became newborn Love Super Angel(What is that??? X( I never mentioned about "Super Love Angel", because it was made up just for the new costumes and Limone's late arrival ...*sigh*).

Why demon kidnapped Yosuke? ...no answer. I myself don't remember what we were going to do. Yosuke would have been under influence by Pluie and fight against Peach as a Vient, something like that, I suppose. Basically same as Anime, just Pluie switched Katusha.)

This is about Anime, the Sandra family(he and his fellows) and Igunis. I was asked it very early stage, when I was thinking very hard how I could arrange and transration the new costume (anime) to Manga. (It loosed a little bit hard as Shojyo manga. And of course you had to think about tone-work)

Then...at the first "Ignis" was supposed to be "Sandra". More accurately, he was "Sandra, The Fire demon Igunis trib". Well, this is a long story... but let me explain. ^^;

I complained about his name. '"Sandra'? Sound like female name. Not cool" (I know it was really really small trifle thing, I had no reason hang about this kind of things. Just a name!) and "We can take Igunis as a name" Hahah...RUDE!!! ^^;;

Then, his name became "Igunisu" but "Fire Demon Pule tribe/Igunis" (Manga didn't take this tribe things, as you know). But "Sandra" was also remained. Seems Tomita san loved this name. In this time, there was a producer from ad agency between I and the anime staffs). He said the designs I handed him were too complicated for anime, so they would give some changes about it. I had no objection, of course. But still they could be too complicated to move. I guess it could be one of the reason the Sandra's were vanished so quickly. ^^;

I had visit to the voice recording studio and see the guys did "afu-reco (voice recording)". It was really fun. And just only once, Tomita had let me in "scenario-meeting". All Wedding Peach scenario writers (4, Tomita was a Chief, and other 3) discuss about 3 months (I believe it was 3 months) story (episodes) and who would take which one. Tomita asked to me "would you like to come with me?" so I came. How could you have missed? In later, he told me he hadn't thought I said yes. Why? Anyway, I think I behaved myself, but it was the first and the last one they have me. XD

Chapter 1

Oh no, the scanning are horrible this time...don't know why, but the bottom of some pages are missing, and the gray is strong. maybe I did something wrong when I scanned. Still, it's not so big problem as long as you can see where these pages come from. Check your book, right? :D


Slapping a girl's cheek to make her calm down, this is a kind of formula, I suppose. But that is the reason THE WORK also has this kind of scene...I got some letters.^^; Honestly, I've not read it, just coincidence.

Dasy's line "ouch". It seems difficult for very young readers, I got a couple of letter "Why Dasy said 'ouch' when Peach was slapped? It doesn't make sense". Mmm...

Still, demons couldn't notice presence of this noisy party ... STUPID!!


"Think how it goes" ... what they did is very simple. It is the threshold my brainpower and the number of pages.


It seems to be very sexy. T(the editor) didn't say anything about ...^^;


I know, I know. The power(weapons) of Lily and Daisy can't - mustn't defeat Pluie. Still...


Oh, it's not Shojyo manga but Shonen, totally! Actions and actions, fights and battles. Still, I tried as much as I could put "doki-doki" scenes in it. I'd learnt it from M. Why Peach doesn't care about Lily and Daisy who are fighting with Pluie? Don't ask me!! ^^;

Tomita put "kiss scene" in here. He might have thought too much fight as a Shojyo manga, I don't know. But, I rejected it and made a completely different sequence. The result is ..."Pants" I think it suit Yosuke's character. (manga vaesion. Anime's Yosuke is softer and gentler than Manga, I think) I love this scene. =^^=

He has two left hands. IDIOT!!! * blush *
Is there anyone who has read Devilman by Go Nagai? It has the scene very like this. Yes, I got it from this manga. I love this series both Manga and Anime.

Memory again! Because there are not so many "Yosuke I really like" scene, I had to use same one again and again. ...rice ball could be first? Deferent from Anime(and from original story ^^;) Momoko can see only Yosuke, from now on. You know, in Anime, Momoko still thinks about Yanagiba-senpai...

"It is my fate" She said it very determinedly way, and she is desperate within just a sec. T urged me put this line so I remember it very well with malice. * giggle *


What kind of things could destroy the house completely like this? Daisy blizzard? Yes, I admit I did it, but...it seems like bombed.





Syojyo manga tankobon has "some free talk pages" like this, I learnt it so I made it. You can introduce the characters at the same time, so I thought it was very convenient. The profile of characters were ...part of them from me or Tomita, and part of them from the peach team... so they might be confusing sometimes...^^;

Do you know Yanagiba Senpai's hobby? Bird watching (and fishing) I don't know who made this up...anyway, he usually used to be in sky (or somewhere) and be watching Momo-p and all, so maybe he was able to enjoy seeing birds, anyway.

Chapter 2

The first appearance of "wave of love"

"Wave of Love" Yes, you can say it's a key when you talk about Wedding Peach world. But it had never come out till the team made the concept of the anime completely. As the result, it was in vol.3 the readers (and I) said "nice to meet you" to Love wave(愛のウェ〜ブ). Till then we used something ? like "holy-energy" words. So we had to explain why the love wave hadn't been shown before, and made up the story "<wave of love> was something special, and because love angels reached to the next stage, they are able to get it" ...something like that. When it made into anime, all the designs are re-do for anime, and...we accepted some, ignored some, as you know. What is wave of love? Demons suck it, but they hate it sometimes. Very confusing, and no one can explain. So...OK, if you don't know what it is, I'll do what I'd like. Don't you think so??? ^^;;

Made a determination, and lose it at the next moment. ^^; Well, it's a determination of 13 years old girl, after all, right? She was also discouraged in the scenario, anyway. Just ...I'd like to say you should be shy to Yosuke, this is not your character...but it was a kind of emergency, not time to be shy, maybe.(an emergency for running out of page) -.-

Honestly, I didn't want to be hanging around "the true identity is" thing. I know this is a formula of this genre, but it is obvious who they were, anyway...

This cheeks business, I intended to use it in next chapter, but I had no idea I would use it again, "promise it" in Vol.5. These kinds of things happen sometimes, and make me surprised and happy! J


Why Peach's power could be so strong, enough to produce "Wave of Love"? She found the purpose to fight, got a new motivation. Protecting people she loved, keeping the promise she made with a boy she loved. ...something like that, I made up a reason.


We had decided to keep Yosuke's identity in secret, but he still had mysterious power.XD Sadly, he had fainted till the end. There was no place for him in the story from this point, I had to eliminate him.

So...well...I mean, he is half human, right? So he can have it, anyway. It means Wave of Love can be had everyone, not exclusive power of Love angels...there there, a contradiction has come. "Wave of love", this power is something very special and exclusive, the difinition was only valid within this chapter. Afterwards, it fall down the power which can be had by everyone, angels or humans, ...even demons. XD


When my editor T saw this storyboard, he said "Plui gives Peach a lariat, right?" Well...

In the scenario of this chapter, Yosuke keeps calling Momoko Peach, because she transformed Wedding peach. And I scribbled a note in the script; "Yosuke must call her MOMOKO, NOT PEACH"

Mami Tachibana saw it and lol, so I remember it very well. In fact, I scribble a lot of notes in scenarios ?something like ideas, alternative episodes, so on. I did such stupid thing means I really hated to make Yosuke call Momoko Peach. XD


Her grandmother was a French, I made one episode from this, later. In short, Yuri is in the position of "Sumire-chan"(Sally the Wich). Hinagiku's position is same as Yoccyan, and she has triples little brother like Yoccyan. (I didn't take this idea, because simply there is no page for it.) About "Christmas pudding", I don't think Yuri like it if she has French blood, but "Christmas pudding" sounds smart for children. Irresponsible. ^^; By the way, Yanagiba's favorite foods are pudding, too.(Custard pudding, I think)

Incidentally, this fish-story is true, from my experience. The anesthesia was not enough.

Chapter 3

Bit different from Pluie's Demon Vortex, Raindevilla's was. Because I had a tone just fit for it. ;D

I was stuck here; it's difficult to chew up. "Poor thing", Peach helped Pluie because his mistress checked him, and he impressed the sympathy of her, then down into the vortex by himself... This is the task. But I couldn't accepted "he accepts the fact Peach thought he is pity". He was not pity, he wouldn't help love angels. He would die (or floating in the vortex) with the proud as a demon, believing the victory of demons. So I gave it a little modification. But in anime, I admit the last of Pluie was done very impressively and I remember how the producer and Kazuki Yao talked about it passionately at the job-well-done party of WP. :D

m-e-m-o-r-y♪♪ It was just a few minuets ago...

I love this Lily's buttocks. I think I drew it cute, didn't I?

The first appearance of the new costumes. Very awkward. You need some time, draw several time till you get whole image, that's all. ^^; Tell you what, I remember the day I was asked to come to Shogakukan to make drawings for new costumes(for anime). We, guys from the Peach team and I discussed at a meeting room, and drew many screeches. The final drawings went to TENYU and Kazuko Tadano, then...anime designs came to me, and they were very different from one we made, I believe. ^^;

I, Mamip and I tried to give it more dressy and frilly essence, put some stitch works at fringes, made fluffy one ribbon(one ribbon???), and so on.

"What is a super love angel?" Don't ask me!! laughter

Daisy kindly said my thought here. XD
Sis Celeste maintains the shield of Angel world, the concept was not yet at this point, I believe...

You know, he can't lose his memory. It must be a huge loss for a girl the guy she loves lost the memory with her. Especially the memory was like that, don't you think so? And erasing someone's memory means kill his existence at that time. It might be tough, might be sad, but you can forget and that's OK, ...I don't think so. I don't want children think so.



Making "free talk" page became to be troublesome for me, so I took this one instead. The last panel's drawing would be back shot of Momoko and she screams "Kadaaa" this is the rule. Kyadaa is the word Tomita made(I think ...might be wrong, could be someone else), Kya +Yada(NO). In this volume, there is not so remarkable 4koma, except the last one (something blue. I really love it!!! XD).

Chapter 4
I'd got a script yet. I was getting bolder and impolite, though. But still we had meetings, and I picked some points from the script. "Look at me, I am trying..." ??? XD

You know, Momoko's true love is Yosuke, period. She crushes on him, and she knows. In this point, I have no hesitation ignore the script. That's because, you know, think about what they did....

Around here, all the characters became childish, shrink...5-4 head figure >.< Like Chibi. Compare with this, how cool Takuro in Anime!!! But the base was my design, surprisingly. XD Tomita told me "I said Anime staff I asked Yazawa made Takuro a good looking boy." ...not cool at all. Funny.

Ignis can hide Takuro's body, I made this sequence to show Takuro's negative personality, I believe. You can't put a weird and rock-like bracelet daily. I thought it when I saw this scene in the anime. Didn't realize it.... Still, when the bracelet moved creepy...that's definitely not fit the world of Wedding Peach! (Yes, I know I did it, and the tree monster Yosuke had been captured, too)

I think everyone knew from the first, Takuro is fated to be Hinagiku's boyfriend. It was decided from the plot had started. So ...? Then we need a reason why Hinagiku is going to love Takuro, instead of Yanagiba senpai. I need, at least then had thought. He is nasty, but it could come from his feeling to Hinagiku - he knows how Hinagiku looks and think him, that makes him a cynical boy. He really loves Hinagiku since childhood, and when Hinagiku knows it, how he loves her, her mind can be touched and look Takuro in different way. Right? - right, I thought at least. Anyway, Hinagiku's "I love Yanagiba senpai" has no depth at all, just "I like a good looking boy", so she doesn't change her mind, she is falling love with him. :)

Hanazono junior high had been a publish school so far, but it was wrong! The fact was turned up it was a Christian school with a chapel, when it went anime. So I made a sequence up to introduce the chapel to readers and pushed it in the story. BUT...if it was so, the school has from primary to high (not university, according from the setting of anime), how could Momoko and friends hadn't known Yanagiba & Yosuke till junior high first?? Both of them must be very famous. All of them had entered the school from junior high? Anyway, already a man said "Hanazono junior high" at Mimiko's wedding. Well, ...who cars? No one.

I'd done lot of things what I wanted, and deleted lot of scenes...but I couldn't cut this line...I couldn't find any good alternatives for this. -.- Surprise, surprise...stunned. 

They climbed one step high, being super love angels in manga. BUT in anime, it was different, so anime's love angels had fought with old items for a while. That means there is no new attacks, new items...more accurately, no toy-designs. Yes, they make toy designs in advance, very ahead. But in this stage- the series had just started - no. Too early. This is a kind of excuse ? till the new items arrival.

Tomita loved the character design of Rampo and he put her in the anime. Much much cuter than manga, tough. ;) The outfit of her must had given lots of trouble to anime staff... * Wedding Peach's ribbon; one, two, three...four...four??? " ><;;

Then, a quite hazy attack had been done, and along with it, mysterious light came out from the ring and pointed THE BOOK. Wanted some relevant with ss4, at least.

Chapter 5
The final conception of SS4 came to me at this point. The final chapter of vol.3 - yes, it's late, very late, but I got it, anyway. XD They had been in the chapel since one hundred year before, …blah blah blah. You don't need to look for it at all, because you are born the place they has been. But the goddess asked love angels to search. Why? Of course I hadn't had no idea about SS4 in that point, so just wrote as the script said. Although it's a contradiction, I didn't care such trifle(??) things by that time. XD One more, the church Momoko's mom had a wedding at was not this chapel at all, it's obvious from the drawing. (The setting was introduced by the anime team) I didn't care, too.


Umbro, this is the brand Yosuke likes, because this brand is cooler than puma or addidas for boys who play soccer; that my friend Mana told me. In addition to that, it's easy to draw ^^. …What a extraordinarily coincidence is, he happened to come there.


When I came across the part I couldn't chew it up. Everytime I came across such situations, I used to look for an escape way. In this part - Yosuke stuck in laughter by what he said, it was. "You played the flirt with him/ all cute and sexy" Does Yosuke call Momoko Sexy? Even if it was a joke…?? Mmmm


Blackie. When I designed Igunuis, he had no pet-demon. I thought he should had have, like Pluie had Jama-p, so I did and sent the drawing to Anime team. At that time, he had not named. I thought anime staff gave him a name something like **ma, such as Oman-ma, Pajya-ma. But they took a tempolaly name we (Mamipi, precisely) gave him - we didn't mean it - never thought the name would be picked.


I love this sequence. Cemetery ->Yuri's grandma ->SS-blue, when I found this way, I thought I got the whole perspective. A kind of "aha experience"? Once you got the concept, it is not so difficult that you track the way to go. That meant I was going to take the (more) different from the Tomita Skechiro's idea. *Where Takuro's glasses are~??? , btw" ><


So, I do love this 4koma XD Flies is flying...
