Interview with Tsurune's anime director from the October issue of Otomedia magazine.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...ABiQRwIQs/edit

Some interesting trivia:

- Tsurune's author practices Japanese archery herself and has indepth knowledge of it. As such the novel has indepth discussions of how archery works.

- The director prefers to focus on the boys' feelings and how it affects them as archers; he feels focusing too much on archery mechanics will make the series too textbook-like.

- The anime team visited high school archery clubs and top-rank archers to record their bowstring/tsurune sounds. This was to give each character their own unique tsurune/bowstring releases.
