August 4thInterview translation(by

GARO -Makai no Hana- event: BIKU NIGHT 2014.08.04 report
- Amemiya Keita, creator and director of the GARO series, actually offered Sayaka another role before. But back then her schedule can’t fit with the filming so they had to rejected it. And this time Amemiya director offered her again. And the role Biku was written for her.
Biku was said to be the strongest Makai Priestess ever appeared in Garo with not only magic power but also physical strength. Amemiya said “You can even see Biku as a Makai Knight”. Technically gender-wise, Biku is impossible to become a Makai Knight because there’s a rule written that female can’t become Makai Knight, so they become Makai Priest instead. But in Biku’s case, she’s closer to a Makai Knight than a Makai Priest.
Dang. Now I'm gonna be left hanging, wondering what other role Sayaka could've been.
But still, I think Biku suits her the most. She's so cool~~~
- About Biku personality, she’s a lone-wolf and doesn’t show feeling on her face. Sayaka said the most challenging thing is how to convey the character feeling without changing her facial expression. Amemiya director recommend the highlight of the episode: Biku’s way of walking. “It’s easy to make you look cool in action scene because you can somehow fake it with CG. But to look cool in ordinary scene is really hard. I want you to pay attention to her way of walking because she’s cool just by walking normally.”
- Nakayama Masei, the leading actor who played Raiga - Golden Knight, said that his first impression about Sayaka is that she’s a really stoic person. He watched the practice video of her first before meeting her in person, and he couldn’t believe that she had just practiced it the day before because the quality was too high.
During action scene, when Sayaka was flying, she kicked into the camera and broke the glass 
Masei-kun was like “My position is so dangerous…-_-”
OMG
That'll be hilarious in the blooper reel(if they have one...
)!!!
- About her costume (and the nipple thing)
Different with other Makai Priestesses, Biku is more genderless in appearance. She wears long trousers and high neck, which makes her look more masculine than others. To create her feminine side, they put a lot of effort into her accessories. Her necklace and rings all made from real silver (necklace is around 130.000 yen, ring is around 150.000 yen). The amount of work put into her costume is about the same with that of leading actors.
Sayaka said all the previous Makai Priests wore revealing clothes, showing their boobs and legs… But Sayaka don’t have boobs! So Amemiya director created them for her with the costume. (A perfect creation with nipples included )
Masei-kun said that when he first meet her in Biku costume, he couldn’t help but commented “Your boobs are out!”
Sayaka replied, “Yes, they are.”
Amemiya director thought that if she’s the real Biku, she wouldn’t get embarrassed about that. So he assumed that Sayaka would be like the same too. In fact when they did costume fitting, at first for a moment Sayaka looked embarrassed but the next moment she already came back to normal, and Amemiya director was like “See, I knew it!”
Not really surprised that Sayaka isn't embarrassed with that kind of stuff.
But, still, they really did go all out making her costume look good.
I mean, expensive jewelry and fake b**bs. People, this is TV magic.
(Sorry, I'll stop now.)
- When asked between the gentle Raiga and mysterious Crow, which one is Sayaka’s type.
Sayaka said she preferred Crow. Which made Raiga sitting next obviously disappointed XDDD
Sayaka love the cool mysterious type. She also like strong and silent type, it seems.
Better write that down...Poor Raiga..
