• ... that the creator of Punks Triangle came up with the story's concept because she thought men wearing punk fashion were "cute"?

• Source: Hon Hikidashi (link): "パントラは完全にキャラクターデザインからできた漫画です。パンク系ファッションの男の子同士ってかわいいなとぼんやり思っていて、その二人が登場するなら服飾系学校を舞台にするといいんじゃないかという感じでできました。[Punks Triangle is a manga that I created completely from character designs. I was vaguely thinking that men wearing punk fashion was cute, and if the two characters were going to make an appearance, I felt that a fashion college was a good setting.]"

• • ALT1: ... that the creator of Punks Triangle set the story at a fashion college because the characters wore punk fashion? Source: see above

Overall: I prefer ALT0. The order of events in ALT1 sounds weirdly circular. I understand what it's saying based on the origin of the manga, but it sounds a little off to me. The problem I have is with the author's pronoun being "she". I have trouble finding sources on this as the author has no article and mangaka are known for being secretive about their personal lives. If there's no information about this, it might be easier to just fall back to "because they thought". --Gert7 (talk · contribs) 18:37, 20 June 2026 (UTC)

• @Gert7: Thanks for reviewing. The author's first name is Yuho (有帆) which is a girl's name in Japanese. lullabying (talk) 20:47, 25 June 2026 (UTC)

• In that case I approve. --Gert7 (talk · contribs) 20:51, 25 June 2026 (UTC)
