TV LIFE web: The Art Team Reveals the Dedication Behind the 'Design Seo' Set and the Behind-the-Scenes of Character Creation in 'Kimi no Suki wa Muteki'

The art team for the drama 'Kimi no Suki wa Muteki' discusses their dedication to the 'Design Seo' set and the behind-the-scenes of character creation.

Summary

The art team for the TBS drama 'Kimi no Suki wa Muteki,' starring Matsumoto Wakana and Sano Yuto, has been interviewed about their work on the sets and character designs. The story follows two characters, a former consultant and a quirky character designer, as they aim to create a globally popular character. The team focused heavily on the 'Design Seo' set, which serves as both the designer's home and workplace. Art Producer Fujimoto Yuki and Art Designer Kosaai Akane aimed to create a space that reflected the character's history, incorporating vintage items alongside current characters to evoke a sense of time passing. Character Designer Miura Nodoka ensured the tools in the set reflected the character's background as a designer capable of both analog and digital work. The team faced challenges balancing the drama's filming schedule with the production of actual merchandise, such as plush toys and costumes. Despite these difficulties, the characters created by Miura, including 'Chuchu Chuela,' were brought to life through the efforts of various staff members and puppeteers, ultimately receiving positive feedback from viewers.
