Afterword

Hello, I’m Yoshino Origuchi.

I’d like to start off by telling you something important. Are you ready? I’m going to say it loud. Here I go…

THIS IS NOT THE LAST VOLUME!!!

I apologize for the large font. But seriously, though I think Glenn’s finally settled down a bit—both physically and emotionally—the story will go on. Actually, my editor’s trying to rush me to finish Volume 7. I’m grateful, but it’s not easy. I’m breathing hard.

There are still so many monsters I haven’t written about yet. Another of my works—Monster Girl Hunter: All the Monster Girls are my Wives!—will be published by Dengeki Bunko. Even if I have trouble coming up with new ailments for Glenn to examine, I never run out of things to write about the different monster-girl species, so it’s been really fun.

I’d now like to express my gratitude. To my editor, Hibiu-san, who always watches over me—thank you. Despite everything we’ve got going on, Hibiu-san suggested we start on Volume 7, so now I feel like I’m being put through my paces. I’m doing my best, though!

Z-ton-sensei, thank you very much for your illustrations. The cover represents the theme of each book, and Z-ton drew it slightly differently this time around. That’s something he can do because he’s been here for the entire series. It’s all thanks to Z-ton that we were able to make it to Volume 6.

To Thomas Kanemaki from Comicalize—there have been so many reprints of the manga, and I’m really happy with how it’s going. I’m sure I’ll continue to send you more books that are nearly impossible to transform into manga, so thanks for your patience!

Thank you to all the artists who talk to me—manga artists and illustrators on Twitter, 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’m forever grateful.

I’m working hard on the next volume, so please look forward to it. I think it might have a vampire in it to suuuck your blooood.

I somehow made it to Volume 6 of this series with nothing but monster girls in mind. That is, of course, all thanks to those of you who love monster girls, too.

Thanks very much for your continued support.

About the Illustrator, Z-ton

I’ve been really into bagel sandwiches lately. There’s not a lot of fat in them, so they feel healthy and delicious. I’ve also been tossing a lot of things into the rice cooker, trying out some culinary R&D…but I’ve been failing miserably.
