　　Personally I am very pessimistic. But when, for instance, one of my staffs has a baby you can’t help but bless them for a good future. Because I can’t tell that child, ‘Oh, you shouldn’t have come into this life.’ And yet I know the world is heading in a bad direction. So with those conflicting thoughts in mind, I think about what kind of films I should be making。

　　我个人非常悲观厌世。但是每当，举个例子，我的一位员工有了孩子，你会禁不住祝福他们有个美好的前程。因为我不能告诉那个孩子，“天，你不该来到这个世界上。”可是我知道，世界正朝越来越糟的方向驶去。所以我脑子里带着那些个前后矛盾的想法，我思考着我该拍什么样的电影。

　　I’ve become skeptical of the unwritten rule that just because a boy and girl appear in the same feature, a romance must ensue. Rather, I want to portray a slightly different relationship, one where the two mutually inspire each other to live- if I’m able to, then perhaps I’ll be closer to portraying a true expression of love。

　　我对不成文的规则变得充满怀疑，只是因为男孩和女孩出现在同一部戏里，紧接着就必须展开爱情戏、相反，我想要描绘一种稍有出入的关系，两个人彼此互相鼓舞一起生活的关系——如果可以的话，也许我能更好的描绘真正的爱。

　　Modern life is so thin and shallow and fake. I look forward to when developers go bankrupt, Japan gets poorer and wild grasses take over。

　　现代生活是那么的稀薄、肤浅和虚假。我期待看着开发商们破产，日本越来越贫穷，被杂草丛生所占据。

　　侧耳倾听

　　Many of my movies have strong female leads-brave, self-sufficient girls that don’t think twice about fighting for what they believe in with all their heart. They’ll need a friend, or a supporter, but never a saviour。

　　我的很多电影中，有着强烈勇往直前的渴望，自信满满的女孩，对于全心全意的信仰，她们不会再三踌躇。她们会需要伙伴，需要支持者，但是永远不需要救世主。
