車田正美先生が画業40周年を迎えられた。本当に凄い事。40年間もの長い間熱血少年マンガを書き続ける事はとんでもない偉業。お会いする時も相変わらず物凄いオーラで圧倒される。だが先生はいつも優しく接してくださる。僕みたいなマンガ家の端くれでもいつも力強く握手してくださる。

僕はパーティなどには殆ど顔を出さない。だからきちんとした場所で車田先生とお会いする事が無い。じゃあどうやってお会いするかと言えば車田先生が何かしらの会を開いてくださる。つい最近も開いて下さった。エピソードG10年間での完結記念の会。本当ならこちらが40周年をお祝いする立場なのに。

お祝いの会に直筆色紙にお酒まで頂いてしまった。一生の宝。お酒は勿体無くて飲めないので飾ってある。会は内輪なので人数は少なく僕は先生の正面に座らせて頂いた。乾杯の音頭で先生から握手をして下さった。「10年間お疲れ様、本当にありがとう」そう言って下さった。報われた瞬間だった。感激。

先生の右手を見て愕然とした。同じ漫画家としてすぐに分かる。指があり得ない形になっている。40年間闘った指だ。僕は指に触らない様にでもしっかりと握らせて頂いた。先生はこの時も笑顔で真っ直ぐに目を見て「本当に大変だったと思う。でもよく描いてくれた、ありがとう」と言ってくださった。

感謝するのはこちら。先生の大切なキャラクターをお借りさせて頂いた。色々なアイデアも頂いてしかも自由に描かせてくださった。最初に思いっきり好きに描いてよいと言ってくださった言葉に嘘は一切無かった。こんな僕がエピソードGを描く事が出来たのは車田先生が精神的に支えてくださったからだ。

会は楽しく和気あいあいと続いた。男同士の内緒の話も。笑って飲んで幸せな時間だった。数時間ずっとご一緒させて頂いた。エピソードGの10年間の想い出を笑いながらお話出来た。嬉しい時間だった。でも何事にも終わりがある。エピソードGも終わった様に楽しい会も終わりがある。その時間が来た。
Citer
最後にお話させて頂いた。大切なキャラクターをお貸しくださった感謝を。10年間と言う長い間支えてくださった事。途中休載した時も応援して下さった事。全てが感謝しかない。ありがとうを言うのは僕の方なのだ。僕の話を先生は黙ってでも真っ直ぐ僕の目を見て聞いて下さった。ただただ感謝を伝えた。

先生は僕の話を全て聞いて下さった。それが会の最後だった。それは本当の意味でエピソードGが終わった瞬間でもあった。車田先生と共に走らせて頂いたゴール。聖闘士星矢に関わらせて頂けて幸せだった。先生に憧れて漫画家になったのだから。先生はもう一度右手を差し出してこうおっしゃった。

「星矢に関わる中で岡田君はトップバッターだった。色々大変だった筈だ。よく分かっている。大変なプレッシャーだった筈だ。理解を得るまで必死だったよな。本当にありがとう。でも岡田君、もしも俺がもう一度エピソードGを描いてくれと言ったら描いてくれるか?」先生の右指はやっぱり曲がっていた。

僕は先生の指を触らない様にしながらもう一度しっかり手を合わせて一言答えた。 Masami Kurumada the master saw the arrival of his 40 year career. It's really amazing . Continually draw Nekketsu shōnen for 40 years is an incredible achievement. When I saw him , he always exuded such an impressive aura. But the master is a very nice and friendly . He shakes hands with force , even an insignificant mangaka like me .
I realize I rarely festivities . And this is why I rarely get to meet the master Kurumada in such places . So you will ask how I met the master. In fact it is when he is organizing a meeting and asked me specifically to come . And this happened recently . On the occasion of a party celebrating the 10th anniversary of Saint Seiya G. While the period should rather be to celebrate the 40 year career of the master.
At this party, I got an autograph on colored paper and a bottle of sake. Treasures of a lifetime. This would be like drinking sake of mess, I placed as an ornament . As it was a private party , there were only few people , so I was sitting directly in front of the master. The master shook my hand when we drank . " Congratulations on 10 years of hard work . Thank you very much . " me he said. It was a reward for me , I was very moved .
I was surprised looking al right hand of the master. But as I understand mangaka . His fingers have an unusual shape. Fingers have struggled for 40 years. I shook his hand firmly and avoid touching his fingers. The master smiled and looked me straight in the eye and saying "I think it was really difficult. But you 're well out to draw you this. Thank you. "
I was very moved. The master had given me his precious characters . He also gave me many ideas while leaving me free to draw this manga . He told me at the beginning that I would have the opportunity to create this manga as I wanted with all my determination , and it was definitely not lying. If I could draw the episode G, it is because the master has supported me mentally .
The celebration continued in harmony. We talked about men in our lives. We laughed , drank . It was truly a joyous moment . And we stayed together for several hours. We also laughed when recalling various memories of those ten years Saint Seiya G. So much joy . But everything has an end . Just like Episode G ended , the celebration was also finished. And that moment arrived .
I talked to him one last time, and told him my gratitude for lending me his precious characters . For supporting me for 10 years. For continuing to encourage me even then that the publication was suspended. I unpacked my emotions. I was only thanks to him. The master remained listen in silence while fixing my eyes. I told him how much I was moved .
The master listened to everything I had to say. And the party came to an end . It was also the end of Saint Seiya G. The finish of this race conducted in the company of the master line . To work on Saint Seiya was a great joy for me. For I am become mangaka by admiration for the master. The master me again extended his right hand and told me this:
" Okada -kun, you were a top batter ( ndt : baseball) among people who worked on Saint Seiya You probably encountered many difficulties I know very well and you probably had a very large . . . pressure on your shoulders . thou hast redoubled efforts to be understood. I sincerely thank you. But Okada -kun, if I asked you to start drawing Saint Seiya G, would you do it ? "
The fingers of the right hand of the master were really bent .
I said a word , shaking his hand firmly , while again taking care not to touch his fingers. |
