Hehehe... Hello everyone, 2016 has arrived just like that.

Looking back, I find that the Monthly Preview has also crossed its second year. Since I started writing the preview in November 2014, more than ten malicious articles have been born into the world.

And it continues to this day...

The emergence and continuation of this phenomenon cannot be separated from your support and indulgence.

Here, I sincerely invite you to reminisce about the past and mourn for seven seconds for your past moral failings.

Okay, I've reflected with you, so let's turn the page on 2015.

Now let's talk about 2016...

If I were to summarize the plot of January—it's roughly similar to the Namek saga of Dragon Ball. We can see many different characters constantly transforming and the pia~pia~pia~ scenes, as for which two will be in the final showdown of the s2 stage, I believe you all know...

Since the plot preview has been compressed by my incisive summarizing ability to within one hundred words, let's talk about something else.

It's almost been a year since my wife and I got our marriage certificate, and we're having a wedding on January 9th, so the update speed in January... you know.

Of course, this can't be considered the main reason for my fewer updates.

Because the physical books of Thriller Paradise are still being released, the "Second-Rate Detective and Cat" included with the books is indispensable, and the manuscript for "half a case" each month is also a burden.

In addition, the physical book of *Vendetta* is also in the planning stages, and I have promised to produce a large pile of side stories before February (yes... really a large pile), which is also quite rushed...

I have never been a writer who excels in the amount of updates. It is true that many things have come together in these two months, and I am a little stretched in all aspects... I hope you can be considerate.

So, finally...

Let me mention again that there are still double monthly votes these days.

The ancients (me last year) said—Cast your votes when you can, lest it be too late when they expire.

Okay... it doesn't seem very interesting to just say that.

To make things more interesting and exciting...

Starting this month, every time I get the first place in the monthly category votes, I will be fully diligent the following month.

Vote, or don't vote, mAke~your~ChoiCe...

What are you saying? I'm betting on something that is commonplace for other authors?

Um...
