#DrSTONE Behind Story 09
#SAI #サイ
“SAI”
Inagaki-sensei, the original creator of Dr. STONE, is an excellent artist!
When I read his storyboards(ネーム), I often thought, “He could draw the manga himself!”
Because of his strong drawing skills, his storyboards communicated everything with remarkable clarity.
I could immediately understand what he wanted, and there was never a moment when I thought, “What is this supposed to be?”
He also occasionally sent character designs.
Of course, I rarely used them exactly as they were, but they were incredibly helpful references.
A creator’s design contains elements essential to the story, so I always approached them with great care.

For Sai, he sent a rough design along with something unusual—photos of a Bollywood actor, saying, “Sai is this is the kind of feeling.”
In Sai’s case, I followed both his design and the reference photos very closely, adding only a few symbolic elements of my own.

These were the elements I added:
1. Since he is Ryusui’s brother, he shares some of Ryusui’s qualities
2. A sense of the “coolness” associated with Indian figures
3. Black and white to symbolize computer circuitry
4. The petrification marks on his arms representing circuit diagrams
5.Simplified hands (for a reason that will appear later)
6. Symbols of 0 and 1 on his belt, along with “C+” as a reference to programming languages

Some people ask what inspired SAI’s first appearance.
It is, in a way, my tribute to Indian culture.
I’ve loved Hindu philosophy and Indian thought since high school, and I think I’ve read around 50 books on it—Hinduism, Tantra, Kundalini, Yoga, and more.
I often draw inspiration from them when building fantasy worlds, and also when developing science fiction concepts.
Not just me—many traditional sci-fi and science enthusiasts are fascinated by Hindu and Indian philosophy.
Even in films like Avatar, you can see Sanskrit influences and names like “Garuda” used for a flying vihacle.
So when I heard that Dr. STONE would include India, my “This is exhilarating!” button immediately pressed.
As a sign of admiration and respect, I incorporated the image of Lord Shiva into SAI’s first appearance.
In the referenced image, the upper left is Shiva, and the upper right is his consort, Goddess Kali.

The image of a many-armed deity was not just for his first appearance.
I had planned to use it in his key scenes.
When Sai, a mathematics and computer genius, performs calculations, I imagined him gaining multiple arms like a Hindu god.
That’s why his hands are black—because I knew I would have to draw many of them.
To meet deadlines, you need strategies that consider workload.
In those scenes, you can also see multiple hand gestures—these are inspired by MUDRAS from Hinduism and Buddhism.
They represent that Sai’s programming and calculations are something spiritual and mysterious.
That is also why the circuit-like petrification patterns on his arms
extend outward.
This is how I approached Sai’s design.
And once Sai appeared, the story moved into “build the computer.”
That arc became the greatest challenge—and the biggest crisis—I faced while working on Dr. STONE.
