As expected, it has been more than a year with no updates, and high-ranking Shougakukan people came and were angry with me. I do want to mend my ways. And since nothing comes to mind when I try to write, I have decided to do a statement of regret every week.
Recently, I can't become genuinely touched by things. I think I'm forgetting my original intention. This is a true story... I was aiming to be like Adachi Mitsuru. No, this isn't a dumb joke, it's for real. So when did I become like this, I wonder. Yes, that's right, in the beginning I was thinking that I wanted to create works that could be turned into anime, but it's enough of that now. Won't ever happen. It's impossible. I thought stuff like "I want to live in a luxurious mansion", but no. We should just hand it over to him.
Recently, when I see young people's straight-forward works, I'm sorry, but I want to crumble to nothingness.
