Time’s just about up so I’ll make my words of gratitude simple! abec-san, who displayed the charm of new characters constantly taking the stage in this volume, Miki-san, who came to LA with me as my editor, Tsuchiya-san, who took on the role of a guard and served as deputy editor in Japan while we were away, and everyone who has read to this point, thank you very much!
