Because I love you all, I've used the WayBack machine to unearth these rare pieces of Turn A Gundam art from Akiman's old blog circa 2005. These aren't scans from a book, these are copies made directly from the original source files!

It's immediately apparent that Akiman was incredibly inspired when working on Turn A Gundam! You can FEEL his excitement! This is some of his finest work for both character design and illustration!

How did you start in the manga business?

"The trigger was the manga Hatarakiman, which made me want to become an author too. I then showed my first works to an editorial manager of Young Magazine (weekly magazine specialized in seinen)" - 2019 (Glénat)

vou ter que repetir Shinkiro, embora goste muito também dos trabalhos de Akiman e Kino Nishimura, mas essa arte do Shinkiro diz TANTA coisa de uma forma tão simples...... embora não seja a mais bonita dela, é a que mais me impacta.

:-D always a pleasure! Big fan of this kinda box art, it's so much fun. And Akimans work from that era is super fun too.

Continuing with the Capcom love, today I've got a wonderful interview from 2000 with designer Akira "Akiman" Yasuda! It's a rich, wide-ranging conversation and he goes pretty deep on his experiences making Forgotten Worlds, Final Fight, and SFII. https://t.co/mBQz70muGC

As you can see, his right eye was already damaged before his fight with Dan's father, Go Hibiki. Illustrations by the masters, Bengus and Akiman.

The outfit most commonly-associated with Dianna is this white & blue dress. Akiman describes it as a "sexy" outfit that emphasizes the female figure, because of the bolero-style jacket and high-waisted long skirt.

When discussing Dianna's character design, Kihel also has to be considered. Tomino insisted that they have blonde hair, and Akiman used Reika Ryuuzaki ("Madame Butterfly") from Aim for the Ace! as a model to create his own ideal upper-class lady.
