Yoneda Kou Poll: Translated Questions

I finally got round to translating the ten winner questions of my little Yoneda Kou Poll. Sorry for the wait, I had a busy weekend. You can send Sensei these questions by answering the 10-Year Anniversary Survey until July 31st. It wasn’t specified anywhere if the number of questions per person is limited, so it should be okay to ask more than one. If you ask all the questions at once though, that might be considered spam, so choose your favorites below and then copy & paste the Japanese translation into the specified field in part 3 of the survey. Maybe there’s a word limit once you try, but I don’t know since I haven’t answered it yet.

At the end of the post I’ve also added some questions I translated for @lustfulcat as a bonus. She’s always working hard for the fandom, so I thought that’s only fair. I also included my own questions, in case someone else wants to ask them too.

On to the Questions:

(1) If Yashiro had outright confessed to Kageyama, would they have dated? How long would it have lasted for?

もし高校生の矢代が勇気を絞って景山に告白してたら、2人は付き合うことになったでしょうか。なかなか想像がつきませんが、2人の関係はどれくらい続いてたでしょうか。

(2) Why Yashiro have a change in his color hair? I see a lot of posters and in them his hair changes.

矢代の髪の毛の色は絵によって違う気がしますが、先生はなぜ時々髪の毛の色を変えたりしますか。

(3) If she could pick actors to play Saezuru characters, who would she pick?

もし「囀る～」の映画化が決まって、先生は世界のどの俳優でも選べることが出来るのなら（あり得ない前提ですみません）、誰が「囀る～」 のキャラに一番イメージが近いと思いますか？

(4) What are your top ten yaoi manga by other mangaka?

先生の一番好きなBL漫画を10作教えてください。もし答えにくいのであれば、どういうBL漫画が個人的にお好みですか？

(She might be hesitant to directly name titles as her favorites since she has many BL mangaka friends who she might be afraid to offend with her answer. So I’ve added : If it’s difficult to answer this question, what kind of yaoi manga do you like in general?)

(5) Which of her couples are reversible? If none are, would you ever draw a reversible couple?*

先生は リバーシブル についてどう思いますか？先生のカップルの中にはリバCPがいますか？小野田と出口ならリバあり得るかなと思いますが、もし違うのなら、いつかリバカプを描きたいと思いますか？

(What do you think about reversible couples? Do any of your couples like to switch? Onoda and Deguchi kind of seem like they would, but if I’m wrong, would you ever draw a reversible couple?)

(6) What’s a detail in one of your works that you think most people don’t notice?

今まで描いてきた漫画を振り返ってみると、こだわったわりにはなかなか読者に注目されていないところ、又はあまり気付かれていないところなどありますか？

(7) Do you get *feels* when you read your own work?

先生はご自分の作品に萌えられますか？

(8) Is there a Yoneda Kou “universe” in which all or many of her works take place? Now that we’ve seen Shark and Whale from “Saezuru” in “Op,” I really want to know whether Masaki from “Nights” (police, drug division) and Ryouji from “Why do you love me anyway” (police, organized crime division) know Yashiro’s sex friend … (No. 1)

ヨネダ先生の多くの作品の舞台になった「ヨネダコウの世界」みたいな設定がありますか？鮫と鯨は「囀る～」にもOpにも現れますが、NightSの真崎は「俺に恋して～」の良司や「囀る～」の矢代の（警察の）セフレとの知り合いですか？とても気になります。

(9) Does Yashiro have any particular feelings about his birthday? Did any specific event happen that might have soured the occasion for him?

矢代は自分の誕生日について何か特別な気持ちを抱いていますか？昔、その日には何か嫌なこととかありましたか？

(10) Who is Yoneda-sensei type of man among all the characters she has created, and why?

ヨネダ先生が考えたキャラクターの中から、個人的に誰が一番タイプですか？こういう人がいれば気になるというキャラはいますか？ 理由も教えてください。

Bonus Questions:

1. How does Yoneda Kou feel about the love she gets from foreign fanbases? (@lustfulcat​ )

先生は海外のファンもたくさんいるかと思いますが、そのことについてどう思いますか？もし何か伝えたいことがあれば教えてください。

2. Would she consider a Saezuru OVA / is that something she eventually wants? (@lustfulcat​ )

もしそういう機会があれば、先生はご自分の作品のアニメ化を望ましいと思いますか？どの作品が一番アニメに向いていると思いますか？

(Worded more generally: Do you like the idea of one of your works to be made into an anime? Which one of them do you think would be suited best?)

3. We know why Kageyama fell in love with Kuga, but what is it that attracts Kuga to Kageyama? What are their dates like?

景山は久我のことをギラギラやイケイケと言いますが、久我は景山のどういうところに惹かれてますか？2人のデートはどんな感じでしょうか？

4. Will there ever be a continuation of Yorube Naki Mono?

「寄る辺無き者」の続きがとても気になります。いつか続編が読めるでしょうか。

Notes:

*@wouldnt-touch-you-anyway kindly reminded me that Sensei had once said in an interview that she liked gentle semes like Doumeki and Onoda who ultimately wouldn’t mind being uke if their partner asked them to. She also said that Togawa probably wouldn’t switch.

囀る鳥は羽ばたかない 5巻＆20072017好評発売中！ on Twitter

“イベント限定グッズ「囀る鳥は羽ばたかない」の指輪2種、缶バッジ（ブラインド）、ミニ色紙（ブラインド）が好評につき通販が決定しました💞💞 販売日程：8月28日（火）14：00〜9月10日（月）23：59 商品発送時期：10月上旬〜中旬頃予定 販売場所：ザッキャラ本店通販（https://t.co/Ulq97fL9te）”

Great News everyone!

Because the Saezuru rings were so popular at the Hertz & Craft Exhibition, it was decided that they will be sold online after all, despite initial plans to keep them event exclusive!!

You can order them from August 28th, 2 p.m. (JST) till September 10th, 11:59 p.m. (JST). They will be shipped in October.

There probably won’t be an international shipping option, so you would have to rely on a proxy service like Tenso oder White Rabbit Express.

The rings are both made from 925 Sterling Silver and are quite pricey at 10854 yen each (price including tax), but they look absolutely gorgeous! The gold one is Yashiro’s and the silver one is Doumeki’s.

I will post the link to the shop site as soon as it becomes available, so stay tuned!

Edit: At the event you could order them in your size if none of the three sizes they had available fit. I suppose it will be the same for online orders, so make sure to google your proper Japanese ring size if you’re planning to get a ring.

Btw some fans also seem to have ordered them in Yashiro’s and Doumeki’s respective ring sizes which are 15 and 19 according to Yoneda-sensei on Twitter. Because Sensei forgot to mention in her first tweet that she was talking about the rings, she added another one clarifying that those numbers didn’t refer to D & Y’s dick sizes. They’re finger rings, not cock rings. LMAO

@evilpixiea

I read this yesterday just before heading to the gym, and I wasn’t going to write anything and leave the ideas to my head, but then it stuck the whole time at the gym and still this morning... so here it very humbly is:

All I thought when I read this ask is: “Mana-sama.” Now few will know who Mana-sama is, but he is an important influencer in the early visual kei Japanese rock movement.

Not that The Trinity should dwell into androgynous visual Kei, but Mana-sama was the co-leader of his group, Malize Mizer, despite never speaking in public. In interviews, he would occasionally whisper to the ear of his lead vocalist who would then speak out his words, or more often than not, simply blink or tilt his head. Actually, he was awarded for many years the “best nails of Japan” award and his acceptance speech essentially consisted of him looking cold and giving looks to his interpreter, who would then speak his words.

So that’s how imagine The Batman in The Trinity band: the cold leader who never speaks in public. Occasionally smirks.

But physically, The Batman would obviously not be the originator of the Gothic Lolita. There, I imagine more the like of Toshiya, the bassist of the Jrock band Dir en Grey.

Cold, beautiful, angular and dark bassist of The Trinity. Dressed perfectly (see below) and dark makeup around the eyes. Astonishingly beautiful, but darkly so.

Clark would rather be the lead vocalist, perhaps occasionally dwelling in electric, or even more rarely, acoustic guitar. Bright, energetic, and oh so loved by the limelight. He is not the leader, not even the co-leader. But he speaks all the time to the press and he’s really who you have to ask if you actually want an answer.

(To be honest, maaaaybe a part of Gackt’s new, current persona matches Clark... but for the purpose of this post, since I am apparently on a visual kei reference mood, Gackt would fit the more masculine good looking lead vocalist type for sure)

And Diana? She’s at the drums of course! Beautiful, strong, powerful behind that elaborate piece of instrument. Her dark hair is all loose, curls flying around her face, held back by her golden tiara (what is it called, anyway?) while she executes that solo to perfection. She occasionally lends her voice to the lead vocalist, but mostly it’s all about how her arms move around creating those strong percussion sounds, muscle taunt, golden bands on them and at her wrists catching in the light. She’s also the co-leader. And in interview? Sometimes you’ll get a word out of her, and it’ll be strong and phylosophical, and probably too deep for most fans, who will love to analyze all she says post priori.

(I don’t know whose gif to add for this one.. sorry. EDIT: added a visual.. it’s probably a guy but.. heh. It’s visual kei. Meaning it is probably meant to look like a girl anyway)

If the trinity were a band, who would be the drummer, lead singer, and guitar/bass player? (Also, side thing that Bruce and Clark come off as players but are really hiding a secret relationship) (side-side thing that Diana's the only one who knows about it)

Haha! This ask made me so happy because… can you imagine the Trinity as a band? Seriously. They’re the most un-band-y people you will ever meet. The broody silent type that doesn’t like to be in the spotlight, the ultimate ‘dad’, and a warrior woman who (while a lover of music) is more of a wild dancer than anything else.

If they did somehow organise and take to the stage it would be a thing of… well… not quite beauty.

Especially as they enjoy very different music. Diana we know from the comics likes rock and roll. So she’s up there attacking her electric guitar like it’s strings are the strings of her bow.

Beside her Clark is trying for something slow and country on his normal guitar.

And there, pushed to the front with a I-don’t-want-to-be-here look on his face is Bruce… who can sing. He can sing well and will if he really has to. But, by god, he never thought he would be on stage let alone between these two manics.

Meanwhile the charities that convinced the Justice League to put forward and act look on in horror…

Still, no matter how bad the trio are they book out the venue every time they get on stage and donate all the money to charity. So no one can really complain that much.

@f1-stuff you’re so good

I miss them so much 😢

Ha, I just sent @evilpixiea an ask about Rebirth, and came back to read this.

My problem is, I actually like New 52 Supes, but finding answers is not so easy! Haha how in the world did he go from leaping to flying??

I know he’s dead now.. but I liked it.

I’m gonna start into rebirth in 2018... does anyone even remember him?

Hi! I just finished reading the fourth part of your omegaverse series on ao3. It was soooooo good. Your characterizations are really realistic and I love the way you write. I've never been into the DCU fandom before, but after reading your fic, I've been sucked in! I'm not really sure where to start because there's so much. Could you possibly point me in a direction?

You have a few options.

First… comics.

If you’re looking for Batman a good beginner-friendly place to start would be Scott Snyder’s work on the New 52. It starts with Batman: The Court of Owls and continues with some other really good stories after that. You can buy it in trade paperback from any good comic book store or online. Also in the New 52 and by Scott Snyder is Superman: Unchained which is, likewise, a good comic for people just getting to know the universe and the characters.

In fact, while there is a lot of criticism of the New 52 one thing it did do well was make the universe accessible to new readers. I would also recommend Geoff John’s Aquaman and Brian Azzarello’s Wonder Woman (if you’re a fan of Greek Myth) from the New 52. Green Lantern was also amazing but might not be a great place for beginners.

A lot of Superbat fans started shipping with the Superman/Batman series by Jeph Loeb which I personally am not hugely into but because so many people in this fandom are I would still recommend it.

Stepping back a bit I also enjoyed the 90s Nightwing Series by Chuck Dixon and back even further the New Teen Titans by Marv Wolfman is absolute gold once you get over the way comics were written in the 80s.

There are a lot better comics than that but I am trying to think of stuff which inspired my writing which would be good for someone starting out.

If, though, you would rather not do comics there are other options.

Like the animated series and movies.

This is probably a good way to jump into the bat family as they have some simplified versions of famous bat stories. The best in my opinion is Batman: Under the Red Hood.

There is also a whole chain of movies with Bruce and Damian. I personally am on the fence about them as they are VERY simplified but they’re actually a pretty good place to start if you’re a bit confused as to how Damian fits into everything.

If you’re getting bored of movies and want something longer then the Justice League Animated Series is the place to be. That for me was really where I fell in love with the universe ad with Clark and Bruce. Yes, it’s a kid’s show, but I would highly recommend. It is also a really good place just to get to know other members of the DCU. The series eventually evolves into Justice League Unlimited which has a really diverse cast of characters… but it starts slow with just seven iconic heroes.

Finally you can always just read more fanfic.

Here are some of my favourite DC fanfic writers:

FabulaRasa

Skalidra

Mithen

BuckinghamAlice

ohmcgee

Plus there are heaps of others out there that I either can’t remember, can’t find, or haven’t discovered. If you hunt around I am sure you’ll be able to find some cool rec lists to hit up.

Otherwise, I am really glad you liked my work and thanks so much for leaving such a lovely message. It’s always a treat to come back from work to see another pair of thumb up aimed in my direction. <3
