These were scanned, cleaned, translated and typeset by me, so the download will include both the original RAWs, and the English scanlated version, in different folders within the zip file. The interview was split in half by Kit and I to make translating quicker and easier.
The original title of this volume is "ウィード 誕生 (Uiido Tanjou Hen)" which is "Weed's Birth - Compilation" or "The Birth of Weed - Compilation." It was released March 4th, 2015. This book starts at the very beginning of the series and ends at seventeen chapters, right as soon as Daisuke is going to Ohu to look for Weed, whom he is sure is Gin's son. This is right before P4's debut. It contains a page of a little story summary, with another page of character bios right next to it. In the back, the end of the story, there are preview summaries about the next upcoming volume that begins at P4's arc. There are then advertisements for Ginga Densetsu Akame, GDW:Orion, and other stories that are being distributed by My First BIG Special. "My First BIG Special" is the name of the releasers, not the publisher. The "Special Interview" is called the WANderfull Life in Engrish; it's a pun because WAN is the Japanese onomatopoeia a dog makes for a bark. The interview with Yoshi is four pages long, and flanking it are two pages for dog breed info: Weed as the Akita Inu, and GB as the English Setter.
You may use these scans as you want, but please link people to us and give credit so people know where to look for this and the next volume collections.

It must have been really hard to translate this interview, but it was SO fun and interesting to read. So according to Yoshi, he got good at drawing dogs at the end of the Ginga series (I assume GDW). But considering the character, I'm not 100% that... What he says is aligned to what he thinks. 
Still, it was really nice to know a little more about Yoshi's story and background.
) I'm a little confused though, the description of the book said it has 17 chapters, it that a summary of them or does it actually have 17 chapters in the book? (it's a pretty big book to hold 17 chapters) 
sry had to
