AFTERWORD
Hello, this is Yu Shimizu. Volume 10 of The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy is out for your reading pleasure.
After crushing the Queen of Shadows’ conspiracy and defeating the Spirit King, Leonis makes his way to the Rognas Kingdom to ascertain the truth about the Void world. What will he find there?
The series has now entered the double digits. With new Dark Lords popping up like characters in Smash Bros. announcements, the fighting will definitely pick up steam, so please look forward to it!
Now, for some thanks.
To Asagi Tohsaka, thank you so much for this volume’s wonderful illustrations. I’m especially grateful for the color image of the eighteenth platoon girls performing onstage during the Holy Light Festival. When I got the rough draft for it, I danced with joy over how lovely it was. And the design of that one Dark Lord who shows up at the end is fantastic, too!
To the author of the manga adaptation, Asuka Keigen, I look forward to getting the storyboards every month. The third volume’s depiction of the Third Assault Garden arc is so cool, stylish, and cute (not to mention pervy every so often). Thank you for working on it!
The manga’s fifth volume should be out this month, so please give it a look!
Thank you to my editors, proofreaders, and designers! And the biggest thanks goes to the dear readers who picked up this book!
The anime’s production is well underway. I’ve been attending the production meetings, and I’m simply overwhelmed by the staff’s passion. I can already promise it’ll be a wonderful show, so I hope you look forward to it!
Let’s meet again in Volume 11! What will the future hold for Arle after all she’s been through?
