Found this interview dated on the first week of September, ABe talks about Despera, Lain, the current technology to express his art, and his illustration works. Unfortunately, the interview is in Japanese, hope someone could translate it all. And plus: Ryushika Ryushika will be serialized on Gangan Online from October onwards, in full color 12 pages!
