Some disappointing news, but also something very exciting!

Hello, everyone! I missed you all very much! My apologies for the lack of updates, life gets quite busy and things often don’t go as planned… Anyway, I have some updates about My Best Friend is Dense Harem Main Character-kun, But Why am I the Heroine?! to share, today!

First, Volume 4 has been delayed until the later half of October, quite possibly even dipping into early November. I’m really sorry about this and I know how agonizing the wait can be, but the cover isn’t finished yet and more polishing needs to be done until it’s ready for release.

On the bright side, I do have some good news to announce! As a result of all of the delays, an extra chapter was added to Volume 4! I made this decision with Volume 6 in mind (that is not a typo, I plan far ahead) and I really do believe that these scenes feel very much at home here in this episode. It just made too much sense to include them here, trust me! This puts Volume 4 at approximately the same word length as its predecessor and it might be the longest entry in the series thus far, depending on what happens during the final editing pass! …Though, most of you somehow manage to read all of that in like a single reading session…ahaha…

Ahem! In addition to this, I am also pleased to announce that the illustrations and physical paperback releases are official underway! Yahoo! Unfortunately, Alice will not be the one to draw them. Don’t worry, she will still continue to do the covers, character designs and some promotion stuff, so basically nothing changed! And based on the rough sketches that I have received; I have no doubts that this new artist (who I’ll announce soon) will do an equally incredible job of bringing these beloved characters to life! Tomo looks absolutely adorable in their style, I can’t wait to share their amazing artwork with all of you! The plan is to start with Volume 1 and work our way through the series until we eventually catch up. These are HD, fully colored (for digital) illustrations, and there will be at least 1 per chapter! Readers who own the books will get them in a free update just like I, Who Fell in Love with the Other You, and I will raise the price of the books once they go live, so please keep that in mind!

With that out of the way, I wanted to thank every single one of you for your readership and patience. The decision to go forward with the illustrations was only made possible by your wonderful support, thank you so very much for believing in my small series! T_T I promise to keep you posted when Volume 4 releases and you have my word that it will be worth the wait!

Well, back to work! Take care and see you in the next post!~

Aaron Mays Don't have the money to purchase any of your books at the moment, but I just wanna say they look pretty interesting. Keep up the good work! I do plan on supporting you once I have the funds.

That's so kind of you, Aaron! T_T No need to burden yourself, and honestly, it's much cheaper to use Kindle Unlimited to read the series (though buying the books does help me out a bunch). Either way, sorry for the late response, thank you for stopping by!

Haha, it's funny that you say that! I used to make games before I wrote books! And I do plan on returning someday!~ (*・∀-)☆
