Dear readers, first of all, I would like to apologize for the delayed release. Because of the current circumstances, people canât go out much, and that has led to my daughterâs kindergarten being closed. In addition to that, my wifeâs long term heath isnât good, and our second child was recently born. All these things coincided with each other, so I gave priority to supporting my family rather than writing.
Thanks to everyoneâs collective efforts, everythingâs started to calm down, and so the time I spent writing gradually increased.
Then I realized once again that because I was in the midst of this remarkable period of time, I could not forget the many people who look forward to my work as their source of entertainment. I will definitely find a way to fill the hole left by the delay in the release of the 2nd volume. For now, please wait for a bit.
Thus and so, Iâm Kinugasa Shougo. Is everyone still full of energy? Iâm ravaged right now.
Because of the stuff that has happened, Iâm tired, and I have accumulated a great deal of dissatisfaction.
In the past, when I had time to spare, my heart got frustrated with my work with the pen, but this time, I experienced the opposite. I cried out from the bottom of my heart, âPlease let me write!â Once again, I realize that being able to work when I didnât have time should really be appreciated.
While the world is in chaos at the moment, there are some small blessings as well. For example, as the days of not going out continue, many restaurants have started selling bento boxes. When business is back to normal, Iâd like to visit a few restaurants that prepare good food.
On a side note, the 2nd volume of the 2nd year on sale now is a prelude, and the 3rd volume is a continuation of that. I basically write one special exam per volume, but this isnât the case this time.
Each yearâs groups are fighting seriously to achieve victory, that alone would make the book much longer. This volume, more than any other, feels like thereâs âmore to comeâ, and in that sense, I want to get the next volume to you as soon as possible.
Iâd like to publish 2 more this year. Will I be able to do it or notâ¦
Please keep an eye on this kind of information from time to time.
Donât expect too much of me, yeah? â
