Interesting perspective on the creative process for Minus One in addition to teasing a third film.

“It would’ve been very easy to ride that wave, and I was very tempted to at certain moments. But we didn’t set out to capture a worldwide audience [with Minus One], and that was what made it quite unique,” Yamazaki says. “So I wanted to cherish that origin point, and instead of selling out, for lack of a better phrase, by making a film tailored toward the U.S. or American fans of Minus One, I wanted to tell a story that felt important [at home] right now.”
