* [Message from Osamu Suzuki] *
* Happy news 3 days before I quit my job as a broadcast writer. I am truly grateful that so many people have picked up and read this book on the second day of its release.
Honestly, I’m relieved. This time, all of the author’s royalties will be donated to the Noto Peninsula Earthquake Relief Fund.
My hope is that this book will reach as many people as possible and that the landscape of the future will change even just a little bit. Thank you.
