Axanael: Script
In 'Axanael,' Bio Shitakura was responsible for the script.
Steins;Gate linear binding tree-like diagram related creation
In 2013, the original official website credited the script as the script in the chapter introduction for 'Scan Line のジキル'.
Two leading ladies and the weight of choice
Bio Shitakura talks about 'Kimi to Kanojo and Her Love.' The project focused on the changes in the relationship between the two female leads. He hopes that choices will force players to take the other seriously, rather than easily switching preferences; Reducing the number of characters also allows the story to depict their relationships more deeply.
Production began with Santaru Jinji
Shitakura recalls that this idea was discussed around the time Axanael completed its master album. When production began, he and Tsuro Santai initially led the script, character design, and event concept art, with other staff gradually joining later.
Encouragement during planning discussions
Shitakura recalled in a conversation on the official website that when discussing the project for "Kimi to Kanojo and Her Love" with staff, he received encouragement to push forward with even bolder ideas.
The first time facing written specifications
Shitakura said that the systems of "Smaga" and "Azanael" were formed without detailed specification documentation; When he was asked to write documentation for 'Kimi to She, and Her Love,' he was confused about what to write.
Special content entertainment targets
In the conversation, Shitakura emphasized that even if the content is special, it needs to be entertainment for the audience to enjoy.
The writing rhythm after the outline is finalized
In a 2025 interview, Shitakura said that once the outline is clear, he usually rewrites less and completes it at a fixed pace. When new problems arise in the story, the established theme helps him decide what should be depicted at that moment.
Use heartfelt words for narrative mechanisms
When Shitakura talks about 'The Child of the Beautiful Mojika,' it explains that the protagonist can read minds but meets a character who can lie in his inner words; He designs narrative mechanisms using credible premises in written narration, without using loops or metastructures.
Communicates with Jinji about Akebono Yutaro
Zai: 'Kimi and Her, and Her Love.' During key animation communication, Shimokura noticed that Tsuro Santai was influenced by the previous character's impression and repeatedly corrected it. He referenced Rensaku Enoo from 'Moeyo Pen' with his passionate image of seriously doing foolish things, helping Tsuji finalize Yutaro Akebono's design.
