Materials
Yukito Ayatsuji wrote 'Y no Target' for the second season of 'TRICK×LOGIC.'
Target of the combined Y photo with Arisugawa
Ayatsuji co-authored a novel with Arisu Arisugawa for the first time in 'The Target of Y', and explained that co-authoring led to a treatment not adopted in solo works.
Sharing completed drafts to avoid overlapping ideas
Ayatsuji recalled that during the development phase, private boards would upload completed drafts. He first reads earlier submissions to avoid overlapping ideas with other authors.
Unaccepted sound novel commission
Yukito Ayatsuji recalls that after the success of "Kamaitachi no Yoru," Chunsoft invited him to write the third installment in the company's sound novel series. He felt he could not be as deeply involved in the production as Abiko Takemaru, so he declined the commission.
Participated in TRICK×LOGIC with novel manuscripts
According to Abiko Takemaru's recollection, because Ayatsuji was familiar with the Mystery Research Society's 'Guessing the Culprit' content, he prioritized inviting Ayatsuji to write for 'TRICK×LOGIC.' Ayatsuji explained that he still follows his usual writing style, completing the novel with reader challenges and guessing the culprit; Chunsoft and Abiko are responsible for organizing gamification, allowing novelists to focus on their strengths in writing.
YAKATA's post-production game work
Yukito Ayatsuji recalled that after participating in the 1998 production of "Nightmare Project (YAKATA)," he felt quite exhausted and played fewer games for a period afterward. TRICK×LOGIC focused his work on writing novels, allowing him to re-enter game development in a more accessible way.
