Author’s Note
          	
          	I will be honest with all of you—this is a more serious author’s note than usual.
          	
          	For some time now, I have been pushing myself harder and harder in pursuit of quality, consistency, and a better overall experience. But I have also come to realize that working with images in this way is deeply exhausting, especially when trying to maintain the level of quality I have been aiming for.
          	
          	Because of that, I have decided on something important.
          	
          	So that I do not keep delaying posts when the chapters themselves are already written, I will now limit the use of illustrations to the covers only. Even so, I still feel I owe all of you an apology, because I proposed something ambitious and, in truth, I have not been able to sustain it through my own lack of skill. The main problem has always been consistency.
          	
          	Some chapters may even be released without covers for now, as the tool I use has been malfunctioning, even after days of trying to fix it and experimenting with different methods, including official references.
          	
          	For that, I sincerely apologize. I know this may be disappointing.
          	
          	Still, I hope that, at the very least, my writing will be enough to make you care for the stories I wish to tell.
          	
          	With care,
          	Arisu Taka

@KnoxLugiel Thank you, truly. Your words carry a kindness I do not take lightly.
          	  
          	  I am very glad to know that, with or without pictures, the writing itself is still enough for you to enjoy the story. That means more to me than I can easily express, because the heart of all this has always been the story first.
          	  
          	  And thank you as well for your concern for my health. I will try not to push myself too far. Support like yours makes the road feel gentler.

@SirVidet I know you've worked hard, so whether or not there are pictures doesn't matter, after all you always do your best in writing and that's more than enough, so thank you very much for what you've done so far, I will still be happy to read the stories you upload.
          	  
          	  Of course your health is also important, so don't push yourself too hard .

@MientraSduerme It was less a matter of the tool failing outright, and more a matter of me no longer being able to sustain that level of quality after so much work. Even so, yes—for now, I will try to preserve the charm of my own stories through the writing alone.
          	  
          	  Thank you for your kind words.
          	  
          	  And prepare yourselves, because today all of my stories will be receiving a rather significant update.

How do you feel when you complete a story?
          For me, I thought "This may be the only time I finish something because I know from the start there will only be a handful of entries. Now what is the next thing I will pioneer since because the story category doesn't exist yet on the platform(s) I use?"
          
          How do you feel about the potential of COTE x SMT? I see the potential, but don't really care if I do it or someone else does it. If I did do one, then it be a local incident at a specific point of time and would intentionally be short in terms of number of chapters. I'm anime only, haven't read the LN of COTE.
          
          I would also like to recommend a writer if you're interested. I primarily read their material on FFNet, but this writer also has their material here. NimtheWriter.

Just a thought that Ichinose might be like Yuno from Mirai Nikki/The Future Diary.

@TaytonJohnC Yeah, most people's love for the anime was Yuno.

@TaytonJohnC It's glorius, i love Yuno, hate the protagonist but yeah. She made me love yanderes.

TaytonJohnC

I'm sorry, what is the name of Act 2? Did you introduce zombies into this?! Is the yandere pathogen an airborne disease?

SirVidet

@TaytonJohnC It's a Yanderedom! AHAHAHAHAHA IT WILL BE GLORIUS! Man i am so hyped for Chapter 13, Ichinose POV will be the PEAK of this fanfic.

Hello author, I have two questions:
          
          1. Could you write a story about Kiyotaka in Zenless Zone Zero?
          
          2. Are you familiar with the author Marioramrez025? If not, I recommend reading his stories; they're very good.
          
          P.S.: I like his stories and his writing style.

ato543

That's great, I'll be eagerly awaiting it.

@ato543  1 - Yup, i have the interest, i haved this idea some time, but yeah, i'm holding priorities on feelings first. I will write definitly, but is not the next, maybe the next after that? Well, i have the fic prepared.
            
            2 - Nope, thanks for the recommendation, i will look in his books! I love to read here and see more author's doing what they love, is a beautiful thing.

Well, I did question your ability to post 5 chapters daily and I think i was of the opinion saying it way unrealistic, but I still encourage you to try anyway.
          
          You got two optionsif you wish to continue with a daily upload plan.
          1. Continue with the output, but less images. Some chapter my not have any images in the middle of them.
          
          2. Reduce your output to something more manageable. You can keep the same amount of images you may post within a chapter with the reduced content output.
          
          You could also abandon the daily plan and focus on a handful of uploads every few days. You just adjust what your doing to match this time frame instead of getting everything done in one day. This could help mitigate some issues you may have with development. Can even help with your work vs daily life flow.
          
          Side note, apparently Wattpad allows to schedule when your uploads release with it scheduling tools. Yes, I looked this up as I was typing. I wish FFNet and AO3 platforms had this feature. Royal Road may have, but I'm not sure. Last time I actively looked up Royal Road, I found out they released a mobile app after being a web only platform intil October 2023 when the app released.

@JL_xen0tensei of course dude do what you think is best

@JL_xen0tensei I have been leaning more and more toward letting the images go, even if they may have been part of what made me stand out—or at least, that is what I believe. Even so, I have faith that my writing alone can be enough to make people stay for the content itself.
            
            I do not truly have a problem with writing five chapters a day, or even more. My life is relatively unoccupied aside from caring for my grandmother—which, in truth, is my work—so I remain at home most of the day with the freedom to devote myself to these stories.
            
            And to be honest, I would rather keep moving the stories forward than continue holding them back because of the images.
            
            Still, thank you very much for all the kindness, concern, and advice you placed into your message. I truly appreciate it.
