Volume 21, Afterword

To those who have continued reading from Volume 1: welcome back.

To those who bought the 23 books all at once: welcome.

This is Kamachi Kazuma.

It’s been split in two!! ...You’re probably wondering what that was all of a sudden, but this book was split in two. Originally, this was to be the halfway point of A Certain Magical Index Volume 21 and there would be just as many pages following this part, but my great editor gave me the sage advice that the book would be a bit too thick that way, so it was split in two on short notice. This afterword was put together fairly quickly, too.

Because it was split down the middle, this volume ended up prominently featuring that girl who appeared in Volume 4. A lot of different characters stood up to her in succession and I am quite moved that the people of this series’ world have come so far.

One person is heading for the resolution of his problem, one has yet to find the clue to solve his problem, and one has been thrown into an even more chaotic hell. The protagonists have been dropped into very different situations, but I think you will enjoy what happens regarding them in the next volume.

I give my thanks to my illustrator Haimura-san and my editor Miki-san. I think the intensification of the war made my illustration requests that much more difficult. I am very thankful that they stuck with me this time, too.

And I give my thanks to the readers. 23 books is quite a lot and it’s all thanks to you that I’ve come this far.

It is time to close the pages for now while praying that the pages of the next book will be opened.

And I lay my pen down for now.

But Misha is not the only archangel in the world of this series.
