“

The first thought to cross my mind is that I have to train my left arm, but it's not easy for a mangaka who, by drawing, trains only his right arm for hours. You won't believe it, but becoming left-handed in my everyday life is the only solution I've found. And here I am, lifting my towel, my umbrella, my toothbrush, my coffee mug, my TV remote, and my chopsticks with my left hand. I hope that I'll correctly train the muscles of my left arm. But there's another way to not suffer fatigue too much... (To be continued in Volume 11.)

単純に考えると…。『左半身にも筋肉をつけてやれば良い』。これが右腕ばかり使って毎日、何時間も仕事をする漫画家の対策である。…で大まじめに書くんですけど、日常生活では「左きき」になる。というのが対策である。

荷物を持つのから、傘をさしたり、歯みがきやお茶を飲む動作、リモコンとかまで、私の場合、箸を持つくらいが例外でほとんど全て左でやることにしている。これでけっこう左側の筋肉が発達してくる。

それと疲労を残さない方法がもうひとつある。（11巻につづく）
