Editing Mushi Uta:Volume 8th Afterword

== Afterword ==

Hello, this is Iwai Kyouhei.

The “Mushi Uta Bug” series has finally been concluded.

Was the shape of the goal we reached as you expected? Or perhaps different?

Especially to those of you who read the main “Mushi Uta” series, I believe I made you imagine all sorts of conclusions here.

Bug is only an event from the story’s past.

However, its conclusion was unknown.

If I caused you to feel things like “definitely”, “maybe”, “I want it to happen like this”—I would be really happy.

And this story moves from the world that lost its “bug” that shouldn’t have existed toward “Mushi Uta”.

Finally, we’re heading toward the real goal, connected to the present and the future.

The year’s ending, so I will do my best so you’d be able to read the sequel next year for sure.



It has been more than four years since the “Bug” series started serializing. An author so new he never even wrote short stories was supported by many people.

Onnai-san that was in charge of me, and Yamaguchi-san that is in charge of me right now.

llo-san, who always draws such wonderful illustrations.

I have the feeling that rather than being helped I was actually a burden on everyone involved, but all’s well that ends well. …No, I really do regret my actions. Please help me in the main series as well.



And to you the readers.

Being able to arrive at the goal after telling everything I needed to tell was above all else due to the support of the readers. If not for that, I doubt if I would have reached here.

I am most happy to be able to thank you in the afterword.

Thank you very much.

I would like for you to also read the story ahead of this conclusion. I would be happy if you kept watching over it.



Iwai Kyouhei

Hello, this is llo.

Nice to meet you, those who buy the books. I’m the one drawing the illustrations.

Alright. Mushi Uta Bug has ended. Dear me, we’re done.

Bug’s serialization and the work on the books was tough, but it became a good experience.

Iwai sensei, the editor, the readers who tagged along, thank you very much.

Personally, I’m happy that Mari-san managed to reach the goal safely.
