I had been looking forward to meeting Sasaki as I had hopes to acquire a sketch to make a set with the sketch I already had by the mangaka. But, no. Aniplex being Aniplex, they put the clamp on Sasaki. And then he would start drawing at odd intervals in the line, and I always seemed to either be before the time when he started to draw or just afterwards. I had hoped that he would have donated a sketch for the charity auction, but AX royally messed up in 2013 and there was nothing.
