Zero no Tsukaima was one of my favorite harem, romance stories.

Hope he gets well.

Guy is so hardcore, continuing the novel and apologizing to his fans while his health is deteriorating.

i dont like his ZnT series but as a fellow anime fan, get well soon!

I can't say I enjoyed ZnT, I loathed Louise. However, that only applies to the character, not the author. No one should have to suffer with cancer.

though I doubt he will ever read this.

You are a true hero to many for undergoing what you are and still thinking of your loyal fans. We as Fans salut you and hope that you do get better. Health is more important and we as fans should understand that.

Isn't his cancer terminal? I don't hope he gets better 'cuz I know he won't. I just hope that he dies without regrets and suffering.

Nov 19, 2012 1:14 AM by CataOrShane

stay strong! true fans won't hate for not releasing a novel for a serious reason.

Nov 19, 2012 12:52 AM by Clouded-Flame

This guy need to give up the idea of ​​publishing ZnT for a good time

Nov 19, 2012 12:11 AM by Ketsura

Christ, to apologise, even though he is seriously ill shows a lot of character. I hope he recovers soon, not just as a fan, but as someone who has seen people go through what he has. Its not nice, thats for sure, and I hope he recovers to full health ^^.

Serpenter said:
Some people here are saying that he should drop his manga, and just focus on recovery, but I think in his situation, its such a thing that'd keep me going. It sounds like he's passionate about his writing, and that he does want to finish it. For a dying man, the thought of passing without completing his legacy must be equally painful, no?


Sometimes having a reason to live is more important than the treatment itself, you are absolutely correct.
