A note from the creator

Tite Kubo

BLEACH original creator.

A mangaka who got a dog for the first time at the beginning of spring.

A man who hadn’t had any interest in animals whatsoever and had once thought, “Why do people with pets have phones filled with pictures of their pets and want to show off those pictures at every possible opportunity?” until he also got a pet for the first time and immediately ended up with a phone full of photos of his pet and spends his days battling the desire to show off those pictures to other people and has an iron will that stops that desire.

Dogs are great!!

A note from the author

Ryohgo Narita

BLEACH novelization author number two.

A simple novelist who loves videos of animals and is easily healed by watching footage of hedgehogs and such.

A snake-loving man who would love wrapping pythons around his neck at the zoo and always wanted to get a pet snake someday, but never had the confidence to care for living animals to begin with and has the will of tofu.

Snakes are great!!
