Humorless, inflexible person should avoid this book! This manga over the bounds of common sense. Decryption of ciphered afterwordAuthors afterword was written as ancient Palepoli letters. Decryption of ciphered afterwords are as follows;First edition Afterwords Four-frame cartoons which 2 years ago are drawn for the first time became the acceptance work, and before I knew it, they are regularly serialized in magazine, and now all drawn pages became this book without any pages are dropped. Tezuka sensei was said to be drawn 1000 pages of manuscripts for his 400 pages cartoon Kitarubeki Sekai (Upcoming world). That's God of Manga. The scale is different from the bourgeois like me. In Palepoli, though they are four-fram cartoons, I wanted to together each peace into the world filled with malices, irreligions, parodies or delusions and would face to ruin gradually. But, I was not good enough to do. The method of ending might have been force one. In Death Comi, I could draw them very peasantly so that I could openly draw parody. Appreciates goes to Eguchi sensei who gave me a chance. Lastly the people of the reader, everyone especially who deciphers this ancient Palepoli letter, thank you. Also Chikao Shiratori who accepted every selfishnesses of mine, and Tanabe who had supported, thank you so much! Usamaru Furuya Revised edition Afterwords revised edition First edition of Palepoli was so luxurious making that they knew the more they sells, the more they lost. What a loveable company, Seirindo, because they notice it after they made the books for 4 years from first edition! Usamaru Furuya Ohta publishing edition Afterwords I am extremely pleased with re-released Palepoli from Ohta Publishing Co. This is my debut work. It was one and a half year of joys and sorrows. because almost the first time I had ever drawn manga. While drawing it, I prepared even the death when I finished. I poured everything of vigor into this book. Therefore I love this manga and I think this manga itself is even one miracle. I thought I was happy and glad to be alive, because I just could send this book out to the world. I feel ashamed to blow my own horn, but I confessed honestly because none reading here. This time, Oka-san of Ohta Publishing Co. helped me so much. thank you. And you, who deciphered this letter, I love you. Usamaru Furuya Reference ArticlesJinzou Ningen Bidaisee (artificial droid Mr. Art Student) (p.127) was drawn with my mixed emotions. We (Note: Usamaru Furuya was Art scrool student) might have seeked the most sophisticated one, so if we gather together, we begun to exchange of criticism like a summary of student movements. We didn't have prospect after our graduation, and we had assumed that we could not alive withoutthis closed community.
