The original writer of the light novel Magical Warfare , Hisashi Suzuki , recently participated in an interview with Shinbashi , an editor at MF Bunko J , the publisher of Magical Warfare. Since an anime adaptation of Magical Warfare recently premiered, questions have been swirling around him, and Suzuki's answers were very candid.
When asked how he felt when he heard his work was being animated, he said it was complicated. “In general, I’m not that interested in mixed media, to be honest. I said, ‘I think there are other good works. Don’t do that.’” He feels the anime is quite interesting, however, and is surprised by how much they’ve been able to do with the material.
Suzuki also revealed that the project began when Shinbashi encouraged him to write about magical girls. Suzuki agreed, but took the story in a different direction, making him antisocial. As for his favorite characters, Suzuki chooses Mui (“she’s just easy to write”) and Gekko magical girl story .”
Shinbashi notes that he responded “selflessly.”
