Q1. How is Chichiri's mask possible?
Translation by Tasuki no Miko
A. Actually, the mask is a kind of spell. By a special method it can harden or soften. And as for the changing facial expressions, only when attached to the face will it become his true face. However he has also taken it off to use other spells. For other people to put it on would require Chichiri to will it.

Q2. Can anyone use Tasuki's tessen?
Translation by Tasuki no Miko
A. After the power up from Taiitsukun, it can only be used by Tasuki. (So it was made into another ability) In reality, flaming only something he wants takes extreme powers of concentration so it's difficult to do. That's why Tasuki has those "Damn you Tamahome" feelings inside. That was a joke

Q3. How come the dead Seishi can use their powers?
Translation by Tasuki no Miko
A. Because their powers are not of the body but of the soul (Mind?)

Q4. In part 1 they could understand each other because the book was a translation, but in part 2 it's the original book, so how can they understand each other?
Translation by Tasuki no Miko
A. This time they're able to speak over there though "Suzaku's power". Suzakuseikun also knows how to speak Japanese, so wouldn't he lend power to Miaka and Taka? (Or at least his spirit) Also, Tasuki doesn't really speak in the Kansai dialect (If you go too far into that then the manga's no fun!)... Think of Konan country as Japan. The capital would be Tokyo and the province where Tasuki was born would be the Kansai area.

Q5. What about Taka's real family?
Translation by Tasuki no Miko
A. Parents, one younger brother, one younger sister. The oldest son of a long line of country farmers. Food is no problem. Good for Miaka, right? His family is surely similar to Tamahome's family.

Q6. Why do Taiitsukun and Suzakuseikun have the "-kun" ending?
Translation by Tasuki no Miko
A. It's not the present day's way of referring to a boy as in "Yamada-kun". It's a respectful way of saying "You ~" to a great person.

Q7. Why did you name him "Taka"?
Translation by Tasuki no Miko
A. Because I wanted something with "Oni" and in ancient China it was a name of a country (Gi). During ancient Japan's Himeko era there was a cultural exchange that brought "The 4 God's Mirror" which attached the era name "Seiryuu Sannen".

Q8. The greatest question!! Why isn't Miaka fat when she eats that much?!!
Translation by Tasuki no Miko
A. It's because she's very active and she gets very excitable.
