*The following is the usual list of acknowledgments.
To my editor, who has to put up with my constant nonsense at all times, Mr. Papio. To managing editor Suzuki and the rest of the editorial office.
To the proofreaders, whom I give a hard time by being so late with submissions. To all the designers involved with the production of the book. To all the people at Media Works involved in marketing, publishing, and sales.
To my family who do so much for me in so many ways, my friends, fellow authors, and illustrators.
To Director Omori and the rest of the anime staff, and Akiyo Satorigi and Editor Kuma for the manga adaptation.
To the anime writers, starting with the series writer Mr. Takagi, Ms. Ohta and her idea for Kaztano’s background, Mr. Nemoto who depicted a part of Shizuo’s backstory, and Mr. Murai and Ms. Yoshinaga whose ideas served to influence even my writing process.
To Suzuhito Yasuda, who took time out of his busy schedule to provide the thrilling and enticing front cover and interior illustrations, as well as some design work for the anime.
And to all the readers who checked out this book.
To all the above, the greatest of appreciation!
