i randomly thought of a very old piece of hypmic trivia i thought would be very funny to roast myself with lmao, couldn’t find it tho, but finally found those old interviews with a hypmic producer i occasionally reference!!!! i read thru them and the answers there are pretty relevant to this blog actually lol
hypmic as a whole was inspired by the old school delinquent manga the producers all grew up on. hirano-san, our interviewee, even lists some lol. but we’d been talking about kuukou’s character likely being inspired from hajime no ippo, and ichiro making a reference to this genre of manga in h era reformation just made it feel relevant lol
i always say hypmic wants to give a shit about their male audience, here’s that exact quote lol
also lol!!!! throwback to when they put it out there that the drb results totally had impact on the direction of the story LOL
#this is vee speaking#the interviewer for one of these came off as a little misogynistic lol#but hirano-san responded that what’s popular in the shounen demographic is also popular with girls so kinda!!!! in reality!!!!!#i AM the target demographic for hypmic LOL#i think that def answers why hitoya looks as he does btw lol#like i’d say he’s even representative of those hypmic managers growing up on old school manga where that was the delinquent hair style lol#y’all should check those interviews out lol they’re very informative
