Added 2021-06-08 10:25:10 +0000 UTChttp://shmuplations.com/irem/
In 1989 renowned Gamest editor Zenji Ishii ran a large special feature on Irem, of which these two developers interviews were a part. The first is a roundtable interview with several Irem planners, mostly focusing on their planning process and including some interesting design notes about Ninja Spirit and Image Fight. The second half is a candid chat with then-President Yoshiyuki Takashima. It too contains a few design tidbits about R-Type and Spartan X, but mainly focuses on Irem’s unique approach to arcade development.

I'm afraid not. :( It seems they've wanted to maintain their anonymity, since the R-Type music box set released just this year, with brand new developer interviews, maintains the same psuedonyms --> https://clariceshop.com/products/m_r-type
