Talk:Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria/@comment-14.161.35.126-20131018044327

Since I always get asked when the next volume of Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria comes out whenever I release a different novel, I'll elaborate on the current progress withing the bounds of my authorization. The 7th volume will be the last one, and I'm currently working on it in parallel to other projects. I definitely want to complete it, as it's my first long series and as such a valuable experience. Also, I am not forced to stop the series because of its sales or anything of the like. In fact, the first volume has run through 10 print runs (I think). It's entirely my fault that my pace is slow. To be honest, it's much more time-consuming than my other projects, which is why it's not the kind of novel that I can write at one focused stretch. I really do want to release it, so it would be much appreciated if you could have some more patience with me...
