OH AMANO.
Hey guys, I'm new to this community and I was wondering where I could find some good Spanner/Tsuna fanart sites--
Okay okay, April Fool's. I'M DONE NOW! Actually, I have far more interesting news! I know a lot of fans (myself included) had been following the translations of the Amano radio interview that came out months ago--you can check out this tag if you've missed it, because it's some hilarious crack.
A friend of mine over in Japan informed me of something I didn't know, though! This is actually not the only interview she's done. Early this year (uh I think January? FAIL ME I'll check up on this and edit in a few) she did a second radio interview. Some transcripts have popped up online (raw of course) and this friend skimmed through them for me and did some quick and dirty translation work of some bits. AND LOLOL. I HAVE TO SHARE, OKAY. Just this one question but OMG, WHAT. (If you're wondering what they're talking about, it's a follow-up to the BL question in this post.)
Fan: Hello? Amano-sensei, am I on?
Amano: Hello. Yes, you're on air.
Fan: Wow! I'm so excited! I'm so happy to meet you, I'm Takenori Namiko! I didn't expect to get through!
Amano: Hello, Namiko-chan. It's nice to meet you as well. Do you have any questions for me?
Fan: Yes! Um, I'm really sorry! I know you get asked this a lot! And it's okay if you don't want to answer! But you mentioned there was a BL pairing in Reborn! that you liked, and you didn't say what it was... now that your arc's drawing to a close, are we any closer to hearing what it is...?
Amano: *laughs* I do get that a lot.
Fan: I'm sorry!
Amano: Well, the truth is, it's honestly a little embarrassing. But, do you remember when I had Fuuta claim that Tsuna truly loved Leon?
Fan: Eh?!
Amano: Well, I think, being willing to change who and what you are for someone else, that's really love, isn't it? Especially if the other person accepts that without expecting it... Ah, but that's just my opinion! My assistants disagree! *laughs*
Fan: You're kidding!
Amano: Well, what do you think? Thank you for calling!
Fan: Thank you for your time...
The full interview (raw) is here if anyone else wants to take a crack at it: http://shuisha.co.jp/amanoakira_2008.shtml
ETA: APRIL FOOL'S if that wasn't obvious enough. And thank you to harukami for the AMAZING FAKE INTERVIEW. I-I'd never have been able to make it sound that authentic so she has my eternal love and awe okay. ♥
