“

Manga editors generally only work during the afternoon. Twenty years ago, I brought my script to the Shueisha building in the morning and showed it to the only person who was working at that hour. That person became the very first editor-in-chief of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and his impressions and suggestions were very important to me. If I had gone there during the afternoon and met another editor, I would have produced a very different work.
Fate isn't founded on chance, and it has its reasons. Within JoJo, this viewpoint is taken as a fact. Not because it makes sense scientifically, but because that's how I feel about it.

“

マンガ編集者は普通、お昼過ぎから出勤する。20数年前、ぼくが原稿を集英社に持ち込んだのは午前中だった。だが、たまたまひとりだけ出勤していて、その人に原稿を見てもらった。彼は『ジョジョ』の初代編集者であり、彼の意見と影響は、あまりにも大きい。午後に行っていれば、きっと違う編集者で、その人の影響を受け、違う作品になっただろう。

「運命」は偶然ではなく理由がある。『ジョジョ』の中では、この考え方をとる。

科学的には証明出来ないかもしれないが感覚がそうだと言っているのだから。
