I Wanted To Convey The Message To

Modern Life Is So Thin And Shallow And Fake. I Look Forward To When Developers Go Bankrupt, Japan Gets Poorer And Wild Grasses Take Over.

I Find It Pointless Sitting In My House Not Working, Though I Like To Go On Extended Vacations From Time To Time.

Personally I Am Very Pessimistic. But When, For Instance, One Of My Staff Has A Baby You Can't Help But Bless Them For A Good Future. Because I Can't Tell That Child, 'oh, You Shouldn't Have Come Into This Life.' And Yet I Know The World Is Heading In A Bad Direction. So With Those Conflicting Thoughts In Mind, I Think About What Kind Of Films I Should Be Making.

Its Not A Story In Which The Characters Grow Up, But A Story In Which They Draw On Something Already Inside Them, Brought Out By The Particular Circumstances. I Want My Young Friends To Live Like That, And I Think They, Too, Have Such A Wish.

I Don't Like Games. You're Robbing The Precious Time Of Children To Be Children. They Need To Be In Touch With The Real World More.
