Author Notes

I’ht this book I’ this novel, Inoue Kenji

If we count the total, this book is the 13th book If we count by the short stories, this is the 4th volume Before I realized it, I was really shocked to find out that this work beca series The reason why this work can continue like this is all due to the readers’ support and the assistance of the related personnel I really want to thank everyone

Then, because of the nues, please allow me to insert my customary thanks

Haga-san in charge of illustrations, everyone looks so cute when their hairstyles were changed in the color illustrations in the beginning! Now the characters of Baka Test have experienced a change in clothes, hairstyle and gender (?) I feel really fortunate to see the faces of all shapes

K-sa, the term ‘work’ can’t describe how you continued to toil so relentlessly and I really have to show uess the reason is 80 because of Baka Test while the other 20 is due to drinking and diet I’ trouble for you…

Kagaya-san who’s in charge of design, I feel really sorry that the cover design gets a little le volume You were always able to perfectly complete the job within the extremely constrained time, and your technical skills really helped me out a lot

To the a, I couldn’t help out at all other than the discussion for the script, so I’ forward to the ani to be serialized Once everything’s over, I want to have a good meal with everyone

And most importantly, the readers! I’m really happy that everyone could support this stupid story with a slow pace release I will do my best in response to everyone’s support! Also, to my readers who sent fan letters, I’m sorry that I could respond to everyone Also, I even received a letter saying ‘Because of this book, I got more chances to talk with my son’, and that really touchesto talk to her son about the ‘sou-uke’…I just feel a little horrified thinking about this I hope both mother and son won’t feel aard about this…

Then, it’s now time for the useless chat part What should I talk about here?

—Before that, I have to apologize

The last ti the toilet incident, so I’m really sorry Even I had to blush when I reread it To be honest, why did I write such an e…even I can’t really comprehendcalled self-respect I’m really sorry

Then, I want to discuss about underwear this time

No, this is ato talk about so that feels criminal It’s just that…well…how to put it? For all sorts of reasons—erm, I think I used this excuse before If I remember correctly, it was in the afterwords of 65

Speaking of which, I haven’t written about theI wrote before I always had a lot of things I wanted to write in the afterwords, so the page lies I can write, I’ rather hard

So, how about this? This book has a questionnaire that investigates the readers’ view, so please write the topics you’re interested in To e to sort, please write so houses’ or ‘toilet’ Then I won’t have to worry about what I should write in my afterwords

Person in charge: “Then, let’s sort the readers’ views according to the authors Eh, the thoughts are…”
