Stefan's interview with composers Manami Matsumae (Megaman 1 & 10, Mighty No. 9, Shovel Knight) and Takahiro Izutani (Metal Gear Solid 4, MGS: Portable Ops, Bayonetta 1 & 2). Also featuring Alexander Aniel to help with translating! All three of them are with Brave Wave Productions. They were asked about their composer work from the various games, including their presence in Smash Bros. Alex got his Switch Lite out to check which songs were in the game! Stefan was given 20 minutes with all three of them. Alex and Takahiro helped with translating Manami's answers. It was a fairly casual interview with many translations, so it required heavy editing to flow well. This edit includes a second of Manami talking in Japanese before Alex translated. Hopefully this makes it easy to follow. The music is captured from Alex's copy of Smash Bros, so hopefully it's fair use! Radio edit aired 14th October 2019.
