At the same time as some are in the middle of awards and things and even are becoming anime, I am on the left behind island. The left behind island is also a pretty good place.
Mangaka. Aah, however, I am an unknown mangaka, with no great joys, and no great sorrows either. No matter how great sorrows would come after this, it doesn't matter, and even if I would wish for wild, great joys with all my most impatient, true feelings, my current self's joy is a simple grappling game only.
