Author and Manga Artist Comments
Masuo Kinoko (Author)
I’m truly grateful to see A Gatherer’s Adventure in Isekai become an anime. The idea for Takeru, the protagonist, came from my desire to escape the monotony of everyday life. Seeing things I’ve never seen, touching things I’ve never known, tasting foods I’ve never heard of—this is the kind of adventure I wanted to experience. And I hope that, even if only in imagination, readers can embark on this journey too.
Now, let’s travel together with Takeru and his fun companions. Enjoy the adventure!
Tomozo (Manga Artist)
