Toaru Majutsu no Index

Volume 7, Afterword

To the studious readers who read seven volumes in one go without feeling painful, nice to meet you.

To the readers who continued to buy the books ever since the first volume was released, it\'s been quite a while.

I\'m Kamachi Kazuma.

Writing these books one at a time, I\'ve unknowingly written seven books. The day this volume is released is the 8th of September (Note: This is when the Japanese version was released.), and time continues to move so slowly. Most of the battles in this work were mostly one-on-one fights, so this time, there\'s group interaction involved.

The key word related to magic here is \'magic book\'. Since the female lead of this work has the responsibility of being the \'magical library\', it seems that I should have added more to this idea. Anyway, the term \'magic book\' comes up quite a lot in this volume.

Besides that, I tried to emphasize many characteristics of various groups. If I can induce your imagination and you\'re able to think of numerous powerful moves that several groups use and the thoughts and culture behind them, I\'ll be very honored.

I\'ll like to thank these two people: Haimura-san, who is in charge of illustrations, and Miki-san, who\'s in charge of printing. I\'ll leave myself, who hasn\'t made any self-improvement, in your hands.

I\'ll also like to thank the readers who bought these books. Although I\'ve been going around the same spot without improving at all, I\'ll continue to struggle and roll on the road to improvement from now on. I hope that everyone will continue to show me some compassion.

Then now, let me be thankful that this work is able to last all the way to the seventh volume.

And I look forward to continuing on with this work.

At this moment, let me sign off first.

Once the story revolves around magic, Mikoto and Komoe-sensei have no involvement at all!
