Long time no see, it’s Tsukasa.
This time the volume Unlimited Fafnir EX Infinity World consisted of short stories collection + prequel + side stories. Thank you very much for getting this volume.
To think that the SS that I wrote for special perks of the previous volumes will ever become a volume like this. Especially the SS for volume one until three, I thought that they would never become a book anyway──because of that I remember that I wrote them really freely.
This time I reread them once more but……they are even wilder than I perceived and I was really troubled of how to revise them.
But my editor Shouji-sama said that wild part is interesting, so in the end I didn’t change them at all except of changing some vocabularies and they were compiled almost exactly the same like the original.
And then there was the impact from the illustration of Korie-sensei for those SS……! To think that I’m able to see illustration for this scene──I was really moved.
Actually I experienced being allowed to write this many special perks SS for the first time in this series. I believe that they were extremely good experience for me.
And even among them, the game meeting (the series that were compiled as Brunhilde Gamers) that became a regular for the special perks was something that I myself really enjoyed writing. It became a hint to depict the daily life episode of the main story in a charming way.
I was also happy to be able to write SS for the main story that was mainly about the ordinary days, like the school festival or the firework festival.
I added 『~Side Story』 at the title so that those chapters are easier to understand, so I think that perhaps you will be able to enjoy them even more if you also read the main story at the side.
But, these special perk SS, including the other SS were written as “something that is fun to read, but doesn’t has any effect to the main story even if you don’t read it”.
The main story was fundamentally depicted in the first person view of “Mononobe Yuu”, so I removed him from the stage and paid attention to separate the “experience” of the main character and readers from there. The stories don’t affect the main story at all, so of course you can also enjoy them as side stories only.
That’s why, even for readers who don’t read the main story until the end and only know of Unlimited Fafnir from anime or manga, you can also read the side stories casually. That will make me happy.
Fafnir Zero that was compiled in the second chapter is a story that depicted the events before the main story’s first volume.
Unlike the first chapter, it also contain a lot of serious parts, but I was able to have fun in a different meaning from the SS when writing it.
Mononobe Mitsuki is one of the main heroines of the main story, but at the same time I also think of her as the other main character. By obtaining the chance to thoroughly depict her “beginning”, it felt like I myself was able to understand her deeply.
And then the third chapter, Christmas Panic is the after story that was especially written for this volume. It depicted a part of the path that Yuu and others are going to walk from here on. I hope everyone can enjoy them.
Then for the thanks section.
Korie Riko-sensei. Not only for the after story, you also drew the illustrations for the SS compilation and the prequel, thank you very much! I’m really happy that I can see the lovely figures of Iris and Mitsuki and the others again!
My editor Shouji-sama. I’m really grateful that you created this chance for me to write this EX volume. I could also grow together with Fafnir was thanks to Shouji-sama.
And then last but not least, my greatest thanks to all of you readers! Thank you very much for reading Unlimited Fafnir!
Well then, until next time.
