This is an episode of limited focus and unparalled depth, half on Otomo, half on Chip Kidd. Two topics, and all of comics must be contained within them...or, at the very least, a proper amount of venom. Let's get it on.

I've got the 2008 French edition of Memories. I'm guessing the afterword is a translation from the original Japanese edition, since he still remembered the guy's name at the time. Rough translation:
"First story I did with Young Magazine. My Friend Takadera was a big help, he drew the rose on the double page spread. I wasn't happy with the title page, I've tried to fix it but failed. If I remember right I tried to flesh out the story too, but..."
