If you could be any character from Anubis, who would you be?

"That’s a difficult question. They’re all a little unusual. But if I had to pick someone, I suppose it would be Dingo. He complains, but he still gets the job done, a job he can’t run away from. I keep saying I’m going to leave Konami myself, but I know I can’t leave. I like that part of me. I am Dingo (laughs)!"

If you could pilot any orbital frame, which one would it be?

"That’s easy – the one with the apron, the Mummyhead. I liked him in the first game as well. The Raptor inside remains behind even after you destroy his armor this time around. I was really happy with that."

Finally, where would you like to go from here?

"I would like to continue making games with messages, particularly to do with the future of our world."
