So for a long time, I’ve been attempting to do this, but I haven’t been very successful. And when the earthquake and all those disasters happened in 2011, Japan started to be filled with this social anxiety and the general atmosphere of worries, and that situation seemed to become very similar with my childhood in the 1970s... Because the social situation now has become similar to that, I felt that I could make a film with the monsters in it in a similar way. So because of this incident, the story now has a more reality grasp. In general, I wanted to portray the relationship between this Japan filled with social anxiety and the children.
