Isayama’s Monthly Q&A in Bessatsu Shonen Magazine February 2019 Issue

Q: Why did Mikasa cut her hair short?

A: She used to keep it long and make a ponytail. Due to some unexpected accident, the knot part was chopped off.

Character Nickname for Sasha is: “花より肉 Meat over Flower”. (T/N: This is a reference to an idiom ‘花より団子 Sweet Rice Dumpling over Flower’, which means one would prefer practicality over elegance/taste/aesthetics.)

Reader’s reasoning: She is a foodie character, so I think she would even prefer “meat” over “sweet rice dumplings”.

Editor’s comment: Thank you for sending along an illustration of Sasha as an angel!

Bonus: This is my question submission I sent in May 2018! I’m so happy that Isayama and Kawakubo picked my postcard! Even happier that I contributed a question about Mikasa!
