What would happen if a new system different from marriage was established?" What is the answer of Shuichiro Umeda and Yui Ishikawa? Anime "Dusk Beyond the End of the World" Interview

Ishikawa, addressing the same question, said, "Initially, it was a value that I didn't have, so there was a bit of surprise or discomfort, but after seeing various forms of love through the work, I started to think that this kind of form is also possible. It's about living together with a partner, right?"

In this work, which depicts forms of love within different values from those of us living in the present, we want to focus on the two systems of marriage and Elsie.

Umeda commented, "It's a living community, isn't it? But it's difficult to understand properly, and I wonder how it's different from room sharing," while Ishikawa reflected, "Shouldn't it be a relationship that delves a bit deeper than room sharing?"

Umeda speculated, "If Elsie were a common practice, there might be a new sense of living with Elsie," which can be considered a highly insightful response even in the modern society where diversity is expanding.

Various forms of communal living and love, such as room sharing and de facto marriage, have been mentioned, but in a future world 200 years from now where humans and androids coexist, we look forward to seeing what kind of love story will unfold in upcoming broadcasts.
