Afterword

Bear: “Heyo! Time fur another afterword! (Been awhile since the last one.)”

Cat: “And so, volume 2 was able come out without any probleems.”

Bear: “This is all thanks to the readers who bought volume 1, the stores that sold it...”

Cat: “...the editors, and Taiki and all the wonderful illustrations he drew!”

Bear: “Now, you might be aware of this, but a lot has happened between the releases of volume 1 and volume 2.”

Cat: “First, there was the great Dendro festival on Twitterr!”

Bear: “It had all this unbearably good Dendro art drawn by a whole fifty illustrators!”

Cat: “You can go and check it out in the gallery of the official Dendro siite!”

Bear: “Also, it was announced that Dendro is getting a manga adaptation.”

Cat: “The one working on it is none other than Kami Imai of Needless faame.”

Cat: “Though that still wasn’t revealed at the time this afterword was written.”

Cat: “However, when volume 2 comes out, the first chapter should already be ouut.”

Bear: “It’s highly recommended that readers of these novels get their paws on that!”

Cat: “Search for it on Comic Firee!”

Bear: “Now, a word from our author.”

Hello, this is Sakon Kaidou.

First of all, I would like to thank you getting your hands on Infinite Dendrogram volume 2.

Because of everyone involved and the audience, volume 1 sold well and we were able to release volume 2 into the world without much trouble, and I couldn’t be more grateful for that.

Now, as you might be aware, the first volume had some typos and mistakes (in the Japanese release) which — unlike with webnovel uploads — couldn’t be fixed after they were done. That made me painfully aware of my own lack of experience.

Releasing books into the world and having an audience buy them involved a level of responsibility completely unlike that of a webnovel author. I will try to become familiar with it and continue publishing Infinite Dendrogram to the best of my ability.

With that settled, it’s planned that in the upcoming volumes 3 and 4, you’ll be presented with the climax of the first part of Infinite Dendrogram.

New characters, a great event in the city of duels, Superiors making their moves, and the first clash between Ray and a certain person who’s been involved with him since the very beginning.

I would be a very happy author if you, the readers of volume 2, became reasonably excited for what’s to come.

Thank you once again, and I hope this continues.

Sakon Kaidou

Cat: “...I suuure hope volume 2 doesn’t have any typos.”

Bear: “Well, according to head editor K, ‘typos happen.’”

Cat: “And with that, it’s time to end volume 2’s afterwoord.”

Bear: “It was brought to you by Brother Bear the bear...”

Cat: “...and Cheshire the caat!”

Bear: “Volume 3 is set to come out this year, so bear with us until then!”

Cat: “...It would be pretty surprising if it doesn’t come out in 2017, right?”

Bear: “I-I’m sure it’ll come out just fine.”
