Creation and Conception
Director Mitsuo Fukuda stated that initially the story from Gundam SEED was made from Kira's point of view, but also mentioned that onwards it was neither from the main characters of the series. Kira's personality and common sense was derived from what Fukuda considered to be Japanese thoughts. He commented that his story was about his forced wish to fight in contrast to Shinn Asuka who was set as a civilian in the start of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny. In retrospective, Fukuda emphasized a contrast between both Kira's and Shinn's characters to the point both were the opposite from each other regarding their opinions, with the former being easier to foresee his development. Nevertheless, as with Shinn's future role in Gundam SEED Destiny, Kira was also stated to have gone through a notable change across Gundam SEED. Fukuda also commented on both Kira's and Shinn's character as both were similar in not being difficult to voice. The staff from the series have also joked about Kira's personality with script writer Yuichi Nomura that during Gundam SEED Destiny, he was going to be highly observed and controlled by Lacus. An official guidebook from the series made an official count of the number of the times Kira had cried in Gundam SEED by the time the book was released. He was pointed to have cried over ten times, and thus a comical message of support was made towards him.
