Postscript

Thank you for reading the second volume of our newly published edition! The author, Kurone Kanzaki, here. By the time this volume is published in Japan, we should be in 2019 already. The era of Heisei is over! I hope everyone is doing well in the new era. As for myself, I’m working on volume 3 (as of Nov. 2018). By the time you are reading this, I will have finished the next volume and enjoyed a leisurely soak in a hot spring. That’s what’s happening... It has to be... Please...

In volume 2, we saw some old characters, characters I’m sure you never expected to see again, and some new characters. I hope you enjoyed them all. As the Demon Lord’s life gets busier in the book, I’m busy at work writing and working on the anime, commuting to Tokyo quite often. Thanks to the anime adaptation, I have had the opportunities to meet with various people in publishing, and many creators of various professions. Every day is really exciting! These are all experiences I never would have had if I had never put my pen to paper. I can’t help but acknowledge that Demon Lord, Retry! has completely changed my life. It’s a miracle. It’s magic. It’s destiny. (What am I saying?)

In the new year, I’m looking to go as hard as I can on publishing the next volume and completing the anime adaptation. I hope you can come along with me for the ride.

For those who have suffered all the way through the postscript, I have good news. The voice talent for the anime is absolutely incredible! I almost keeled over seeing the cast list. Maybe I was blessed with a cheat code by the Goddess... Or ensnared in one of the Demon Lord’s schemes...

Now that I’ve given my usual spiel, I’ll wrap it up nicely.

Thank you to everyone at Futabasha, everyone working on the anime, Mister Ino who draws me gorgeous illustrations, and Mister Minotake who is turning this story into a wonderful manga!

See you again in volume 3!
