Yeah it's looking pretty creative!

[Q.]

Q. First off, I'd like to say hello to you, Take-san!
Before we get started, you should know, you're one of my favorite artists, and I've followed your work since about 2006, when I saw this article posted about you online: LINK

A. Hello.
Thank you for always seeing my artwork. I didn't know about that website where you found me. Wow~~!!


Q. Let's start with something easy. Can you tell us a bit about yourself? Your favorite color?

A. I'm just a chubby guy who likes to draw. My favorite colors are pastels.


Q. Now, 'Itatigokko' is the name of your circle. I believe this translates to the English idiom "Cat-and-Mouse Game," yes? Can you explain why you chose this name?

A. When I was trying to come up with my circle's name, I found the word 'Itatigokko' in the dictionary by chance. I thought it sounded interesting, so I decided to used it as my circle's name.


Q. How did you come to work with Dudedle Studio?

A. Punipen came and talked to me when he saw me tweet about wanting to make a game.


Q. You have such a unique style! How would you describe your various works?

A. If I had to sum up my artwork in one word, it would be "fancy".
It means "Kawaii-Kei" or cute style. That's what my boyfriend and my friends often say about my work.

Q. An older work of yours called 大魔王化計画・改, roughly, "Great Sataning Project," in English, features a character resembling Prince Satan! Can you tell us about this doujin, and about Satan's early incarnation in your works?

A. "The Great Satanize Project - Kai," literally, "Reform," is a remake of a comic of mine published in a gay magazine ten years ago. The Satan character in this comic is from the land of sex. It's a story about his journey to the human world in order to become a master of sex.

Q. I've noticed Frey popping up in this and other works of yours pre-dating Sugar Shooter. Can you tell us about his roles in this title and "landmark"?

A. Frey was first featured in the original "Great Satanize Project". I like his design, and other people like him as well, so I decided to make him Itatigokko's mascot.

He had special powers in "The Great Satanize Project," but now, other than his role in Sugar Shooter, he's just a mascot character.


Q. Can you tell us something about the original bad-guys of "Sugar Shooter," now Satan's "wives," we might not know yet?

A. Sugarless and his friends are from a land where sweets are strictly prohibited. Sugarless is actually a prince, and the others are his subordinates.


Q. Same question for any of the characters in "Sugar Shooter 2"!

A. Thanks to Satan, after the events of "Sugar Shooter 2", Kibi quit the life of a thief; he is now living as an honest, good man. For the other characters, they are still working under Fuuma.


Q. There were some sketches you posted on twitter of possible character designs for "Sugar Shooter 3". There was a character with glasses, and there was a character in a kilt! Do you already have a theme in mind for SS3, like how you had a Japanese theme for SS2?

A. I've talked about this with Punipen. We're thinking about 'outer space' as a theme for the next "Sugar Shooter".

Q. Right now you're working on a different game, though. You've posted some early artwork for it already! Aside from the fact it's a puzzle-game, are you willing to tell us anything about it?

A. I'm really sorry, but I'm afraid it's too early to say anything right now.

Early artwork for the new game.

Q. Although this is gay eroge, early on there was a picture of a girl posted for "Sugar Shooter 2". Can you tell us why she didn't make it to the final version of SS2?

A. I also like to draw women, but there wasn't really a role for her. In the end, Punipen and I decided that she didn't seem to suit SS2's world.

Q. Let's lighten up, and talk a bit more about you! What got you into drawing gay doujin?

A. When I saw gay drawings on the internet, they inspired me to do the same thing.


Q. Any favorite artists?

A. I think I have too many to list.


Q. If you could have a harem like Prince Satan, would you?

A. A harem sounds like a lot of trouble, so I don't really want one.


Q. What's your biggest wish?

A. To continue drawing what I love.


Q. Finally, if you could have superpowers, what would they be?

A. I'd love to teleport anywhere I want in a split-second.


I'd like to thank Take-san for being an awesome interviewee. This interview took a while to happen, but a special thanks to Punipen for working on translating it from start to finish, and Dudedle Studio for being awesome in general. I'm KinkyKinniku (a.k.a Alex) as of late, and I hope you enjoyed the read!

Here's some mug shots! Sorry, most of the shots are busted quality because my digital camera is busted quality. xD




And my camera's date stamp won't go away and is obviously WRONG. LOL

These should be turned into pillows =w=
(The one in the shop are not as good as these ♥)

Whoa-Ho! Thank you very much! @w@

May I use one as an avatar here? I'd love to have an Oni Papa!

You may! Let me show you how!

First, hover over Profile on the top navigation. Then click Forum Profile at the bottom of the drop-down menu.

Next, check the bubble that says Upload an avatar, on the left. Then click Choose File and navigate to the image file.

To finish, go all the way down the page and click Change profile, and your settings should save.

And on another note, I've attached the original icons in their state before editing took place. I manually entered the hex codes for the colors through the generator to make editing easier. It took long even to make these goofy things! Also added a compiled pic of the Final versions for easy comparison.

Using icon Generators square mace icon maker as a starting point, I've made icons for all of the characters in the series. I'll also post what they looked like just from the generator, before I redrew them, they're pretty goofy so people'll probably get a kick out of them:

Frey;


Prince Satan;


Tarosuke;


Arthur;


Souffle;


Lord Sugarless;


Saionji;


Kibi;


Toryu;


Aka & Ao;


Oni Papa;


Agyou & Ungyou;


King Fuuma;


I'm doing some variations too!
The first set of variations is the whiskers set. Sometimes certain characters are drawn with scratchy marks on their cheeks I'm gonna go ahead and call whiskers, cause they're that cute! It's just for preferences sake;

Prince Satan;


Tarosuke;


Arthur;


Lord Sugarless;


And I've already started on the stache set! Everyone will get a fancy moustahce;

Frey;


Prince Satan:


I'll create a tutorial later on how to change your avatar/icon on the forum. It's easy, and the resizing is automatic! To be edited~ Feel free to use them now!

I already ordered me that mug! I now have a dudedle mug collection. xD

I liked the first and the second one

These are my Summertime Favorites:

For some reason the automatic link to video isn't working for some, it seems. Just follow how the code works here. You can see it in a quote!

[I love it!]

Love the facial hair

This isn't me because I'm too chicken to post a picture of myself.

Haah! I love it! Anyone feel free to post dilfs. But shiiit- I think he one-ups my 'stach-itude!

SELF PICTURE THREAD
AKA Attention Whoring AKA This hot DILF's Pic I found on Tumblr

If you're too afraid to post a selfy, just post some hot DILF. We'll all go along with it.
Or even your fursona if that's "the real you". LOL

Edit: Everyone was too chicken! lol

Post pictures you wanna share:

Such as;


Or maybe;

I was going to purchase Take-san's newest papa comic but then I figured I'd wait for you guys to release it instead.

I actually wanted to make some Minecraft skins of Sugar Shooter characters. lol

I bet it could be done in Second Life, but it would probably be hard. I would love to see it done though! Making 3D models of anime-characters seems to be a difficult thing to do.

Did he complete the game with the husbands ending?  They're really hard to get.

I haven't had as much time to play as I wanted, but I will admit they were too hard for me to get. Maybe I'm just that bad. lol It sucks because I'm missing out on a portion of the game.
