Hello! Yoshino Origuchi here.
Welcome to the before-times, Monster Girl Doctor Zero. What did you think?
It has the sort of bittersweet ending that I wouldn’t be able to get away with in the regular series. I know some people won’t like this. I’m sure there are many different ways the story could have gone, but please, take this as a bit of spice to add to the Monster Girl Doctor universe.
Lime is the heroine of this story. At first, it was a lazy name for her because she is a slime but, thanks to Solopip B’s designs, she turned out pretty cute. Thank you very much! He also designed young Glenn, young Sapphee, and the other patients. He has the best eye.
I really like Draconia. Alligators are so cute, don’t you think? I love it when they sunbathe with their huge mouths open. It’s not like I want to pet them, but I don’t think the only way to love animals is by petting and doting on the fluffy ones. I know I’m in the minority.
I announced that MGD Zero would be a manga as well, but that’s running behind schedule. I can’t give you any details right now, but I think the editing department will make an announcement if things go well. Please be patient!
As for this book, I hope you noticed how adorable Cerve, Bellmer, and Fuso were.
The anime is progressing well, too. All of the staff are helpful, and since it’s my first anime, I was surprised and impressed with the writers. It’s an interesting world I never knew about. I even went to the auditions. I was blown away by the voice actors and their skills. I came to the acute realization that when your work is adapted and animated, it leaves you and grows into something new…
I would also like to say thanks to some people.
To my editor, Hibiu-san, who is always watching over me. Thank you. The anime world is new to me, so I’ve needed a lot of help. I look forward to continuing working with you.
Also, to Z-ton-sensei, thank you for your illustrations. I’ve caused you a lot of trouble with the anime. I know you have to do a lot more work now, but let’s get through this together. Also, thanks to Thomas Kanemaki from Comicalize. I think this book is coming out around the same time as the second manga. I hope that the Monster Girl Doctor manga releases will come more quickly.
Also, thank you to Solopip B for your work on this book. Thank you for making the Zero characters so attractive. It’s thanks to you that this book turned out so well. I got a little too excited when writing Fuso’s chapter (oops!).
And thank you to the entire anime staff. I always need a lot of help there. I hope it becomes a series that fans love. I know it’s a lot of work, but thank you for doing it.
Also, thank you to all of the artists who speak to me. I’m talking about the manga artists and illustrators on Twitter, etc. S-B0W, the owner of Jingai Only, and the entire staff. Thank you to everyone working at bookstores throughout the country. Thank you to the Comic Ryu reps and editorial staff, and my family, whom I haven’t seen much since I left home. Thank you to the proofreaders who find every teeny tiny mistake. And to all of you readers, I am forever grateful.
The next book will probably be Volume 8. Glenn goes home and tells his parents he’s getting married.
Who will be the star of that book? Huh? The lecherous plant monsters? Really?

Right before I wrote this comment, the Volume 7 reprint was decided upon, and things are moving at a fast rate. This is all thanks to those of you who continue to support me.
I will continue to work diligently so that I can continue to fill the world with monster girls.
About the Illustrator, Z-ton
Lime appeared just briefly in a previous book, but she was the star of this one. I always imagined her having arms and legs like gelatin, but it turns out she’s a cute girl. Sorry, Lime…
