CATDOLL: The father of Gundam: Want to find a way for humans to survive in the next 100,000 years

The question of human survival is an eternal topic. After all, it is related to our own survival. Who would not study it carefully? Recently, Chiaki Ishikawa had a discussion with the father of Gundam, Yoshiyuki Tomino, and mentioned Yoshiyuki Tomino's question about human survival: if we want to find a way for humans to survive in the next 100,000 years, in order to find the future of mankind, we must keep having children so that the genes can continue to be passed on.

Ishikawa Chiaki: “It is true that Director Tomino’s remarks may not be accepted by society, but it is also dangerous to leave everything ambiguous without explaining anything.”

Tomino Yoshiyuki: "I want to find a way for humans to survive in the next 100,000 years, but unfortunately I still haven't found it, so I want to make my will immortal."

Ishikawa Chiaki: “How do we do this?”

Tomino Yoshiyuki: "In order to find the future of mankind, we must continue to have children so that our genes can continue to be passed on"

Chiaki Ishikawa: "Having children is a very important thing for women. Children are their own treasures and are irreplaceable. There is nothing wrong with that. However, whether to have children is a very sensitive topic. The living and production environment will involve many problems in real society. From the perspective of feminism who want to work, I would not say that a woman's mission is to have children."

Tomino Yoshiyuki: "There are definitely various social problems, but these problems have nothing to do with having children"

Ishikawa Chiaki smiled bitterly and said, "It doesn't matter."

Tomino Yoshiyuki "If you were to explain why it doesn't matter, it's because Ms. Ishikawa, what you say now is definitely different from what you said 10 or 20 years ago, and the language and thoughts 10 or 20 years from now will be different from today, so this matter cannot be explained in a fixed way. I'm wondering what the mission of men is, which is to ensure that the next generation will continue to have the will to survive for another 100,000 years. For men, it is necessary for women to give birth to children. It is necessary for the construction of a hermaphroditic society. Only men and women can achieve immortality in the biological sense by giving birth to children. My words are very straightforward, so I will fall into very dangerous thoughts. If I were a politician, I might be killed by people who hate me, so recently I feel that I am just Tomino who is making Gundam. It's great."

Ishikawa Chiaki: “It is true that Director Tomino’s remarks may not be accepted by society, but it is also dangerous to leave everything ambiguous without explaining anything.”

Tomino Yoshiyuki "People live by being troubled by all kinds of broken and heavy things in reality. There are many such trivial matters, but they cannot be completely solved by themselves. They can only be handed over to the next generation to deal with these problems. At that time, the ambitions of the next generation of children will probably be half or 1/3 higher than their own, but the reality is... (bitter smile)..."

Just as Tomino Yoshiyuki said, he is not a politician, but just a founder of Gundam. His words will not make people particularly sensitive like those famous politicians; it is more like talking about something with a friend. I wonder what you think about this?
