引用

  • Visuals have become fashionable, and it seems the lives and emotions that should be portrayed have become distant. The mission of TV drama should be to stay close to everyday life and carefully depict the feelings of those who live there and their bonds with others — a song of encouragement for life.
    出典: Agency for Cultural Affairs Monthly (feature 'Culture Figures', 2011) (2011年)
  • A good drama has the stylistic qualities of good suspense.
    出典: Mainichi Shimbun (interview) (2003年)
