Ken Kaneki fanart I finished after SO much time!

i haven’t drawn this guy for so long

i realized ive never drawn ayato in my life and it needed to be remedied immediately

you are nothing but a dream in my sleep your salvation lies

I rooted for you to survive for a year. Somewhere along the way, I realized I had begun rooting for myself.

Ishida Sui’s tweets

Please take translations with a grain of salt.

The last chapter has been published on Young Jump which is now for sale.

I would like to thank the readers, Young Jump’s editorial department, people from the printing offices, people who were involved in this work, and all the staff from the bottom of my heart.

Including the preparatory period, I have been drawing from June 2011 up to June 2018, for 7 years, with barely any breaks.

Despite it being such a crude work made by an unskilled hand, I’m quite proud of myself for being able to draw until the very end.

For the past six months, I’ve been drawing while mentally preparing myself that it was going to end. However, once the end was right around the corner, I was suddenly overcome with the feeling of being omitted/removed/collapsing.

Until the very end, I’ve placed such a huge burden on the editorial department, as well as the printing office. But I’m very thankful for the fact that they have accepted my absurd requests/absurdity.

Being able to accomplish many challenges, this has been my sustenance.

I am deeply grateful to my editor. He worked like… a cushion…? between me and the outside.

It’s his fault that I’ve become like this, but it’s also thanks to him that I’ve become like this. I believe that the person responsible for creating Ishida Sui is my editor.

10 years? 11 years? Thank you for all this time. And I’m sorry for a lot of things.

I’ve received a lot of encouragement from other authors who are serialized in the same magazine. Thank you very much.

Especially Hara-sensei, a master who created Kingdom, who was such a big existence to me.

I will be going ahead. Everyone who’s being serialized, I’ll be cheering for all of you.

I’m also grateful to the staff who worked along with my crazy schedule as well as hung out with me during fun times. Everyone’s so nice so I want all of you to live long.

I’ve caused problems for all of you but I’ll give you money, so please forgive me. Still calculating for the final month’s pay so please wait for a while. Also, please bring your receipts.

It also makes me glad to hear thoughts from the readers. I’ve happily read all the letters I’ve received.

Characters’ birthdays… even on days where nothing’s happening, a mountain of gifts were received which made it fun all-year round.

It’s highly appreciated even you just stood and read*. To me, it counts as support. I’m very, very thankful.

*stand and read = go to the bookstore/convenience store just to read without buying

When I absentmindedly did some drawing while I was bored yesterday, I ended up filling up 31 pages of a B4 Croquis sketchbook in one day. (Even though I still had a few stuff to do…)

How do mangakas spend their time after their work ends…?

For now, I’ll spend time relaxing by drawing.

Once again, I’m deeply grateful to everyone who have been involved. Thank you, thank you very much. Let’s meet again somewhere.

Thanks*. Have a nice day.

* can also mean bye

The following is quoted and tidied up from my conversation with her :

“The line in Japanese is 養父らに引き取られ”
