Afterword

There is a famous saying, ‘Knowing you know nothing’, but:

“After studying this much, I'm sure I've already figured out about 80% of the mysteries that make up the world, right?”, Is what an ordinary person would begin to think.

“As I learn, I wonder if we’ve even arrived at the entrance to the mysteries of the world.” Is what a wise person would think.

That was my interpretation so far. But in fact, I recently realized that there is no difference in the quality of being an ordinary person or a wise person; there is just a difference in the imagination of the "world" itself. Depending on whether you see the world as "the world itself" or "a part of the world," your perception of it changes drastically, and I, as an ordinary person, have finally come to think that the latter is somehow more exciting to live in. I wonder if that's why it’s important to broaden our horizons.

I still don't know which one is right: Do ghosts exist or not? Do aliens exist or not? But I think they are still "faint" beings that are behind a wall of knowledge, they are white and hazy so that’s why I think they stand out . Since ancient times, they have been a constant source of fear and at other times, a source of fascination for many people. I published this book here today with a keen awareness of the difficulty of capturing that "faintness".

Mr. Yoshitoshi Abe, who grasped my poorly written expressions with a keen sensitivity and expressed them visually in a wonderfully way. The person in charge Mr. Katsushi Ota, whose hot words managed to get me through to the last line. I thank you so much. And to the person who holds this book in their hands: To the "writer", the "reader" is still a "faint" existence, who may or not exist. It’s always scary facing people through my work – but despite this, while reflecting on the wonderfulness of being able to have a chance meeting like this, I’d like to express my deepest thanks to you.
