Hey I just wanted to thank you again for all your hard work. We’ve talked a lil in the no.6 discord about it, but I seriously am blown away by your dedication to this book and the fandom as a whole. It means so much to me that you took this so seriously, and made it available for us as soon as humanly possible. These characters, this whole series, has been such a huge part of my life for so long…so the fact I got to read it as quick as I did after release…it just makes me emotional. And so fucking happy. Thank you. Seriously. It’s a beautiful translation of a beautiful book. I really hope you continue to have love for this series, and gain blinding joy from it like so many of us have. You’re fuckin awesome and don’t you forget that!!!!!
Thank you kaboku for your kind words!! I've really enjoyed getting to chat with you!! Just like you, No.6 was an integral part of my formative years, and has been with me ever since—I know that many fans have the same story. It was my goal to have the novel ready to go on release day so that none of us would have to wait a moment longer for a reunion that we've been waiting fourteen years for (only twelve years in my case, lol!). The shine of the world and characters Asano has crafted have truly not dulled one bit.
It honestly feels like fate to get to translate this novel!! It is my way of giving back to the fandom that has just as much love for this story and characters as I do. I don't have the words to express how meaningful the experience has been. It fills my heart with so much joy every time I see someone excited about this novel. All of my love to you and the rest of the fandom <3
