Doing the editing (clean and redraw) I'd love to tell you more about this new character, but I can't. Couldn't if I wanted to because I don't read Japanese. From what I've gathered by doing this, I can say he has an important role in the future. If I didn't read it here, I'd have no idea what the story was about.
I still have a few more chapters to clean, then the translators are doing their thing, as well as the type setters. I'm really having fun doing this, and to everyone that is enjoying this story, I can say thank you for your support. This is a labor of love. For me, I love being involved in it, and I'm learning new things and techniques.
Your thanks are appreciated. That's what pumps us up.
