CATDOLL: Yoshiki Tanaka's novel "The Heroic Legend of Arslan" will be completed and the characters will die.

The anime "The Heroic Legend of Arslan" has now been successfully completed. This typical story of a prince restoring his country has attracted a lot of attention from anime fans since its launch, and the original novel written by Yoshiki Tanaka has also attracted much attention. Recently, Tanaka's secretary revealed that the author is currently working on a new book, and that characters will continue to die.

"Just in case, I'll write it down first. Mr. Tanaka is working hard. He's currently creating a new issue of The Heroic Legend of Arslan. The story is coming to an end, and now is the time when more and more people are leaving. As for Mr. Tanaka, he will also consider 'how to create a way of death in his own way' that readers can accept."

"In the final analysis, a chivalric story like The Heroic Legend of Arslan is structured like King Arthur, where the characters gradually exit the stage. What's important is how to make the readers feel that the 'exit scene' is something that 'Tanaka could have written'."

"People often say, 'It's Tanaka anyway, in the end, everyone will die in The Heroic Legend of Arslan,' and unfortunately that's true, but on the other hand, do people really want to see 'Arslan, Narsas, and Daron all die happily of old age'? I think that's too idyllic and lacks appeal. (laughs)"

“Since I heard about the concept of The Heroic Legend of Arslan 20 years ago, the concept of the work has not changed much. The order of the characters’ exit is basically the same as what I heard. Mr. Tanaka said: ‘The Heroic Legend of Arslan will not have a formal structure like Legend of the Galactic Heroes.’ But it has not changed much.”
