Thank you for another wonderful year in 2019! I wish everyone a great New Year!

The Promised Neverland

Kaiu Shirai

Every time I see Andrew, I think of Ando Ryu and laugh. Thank you so much, Miyazaki Sensei!

Agravity Boys

Atsushi Nakamura

Thank you so much for the comment, Tabata Sensei! I dedicate the space here this week to you!

Jujutsu Kaisen

Gege Akutami

The recent Jujutsu Kaisen chapters have been all about “how many times did you say Satoru Gojo?”

One Piece

Eiichiro Oda

Looking back on it, what a fun year it was. I’ll try my best again next year. Happy New Year!

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Koyoharu Gotouge

I messed up which side Kanao’s sword is supposed to be on the volume 18 cover. I’m so sorry for always messing up. (sweat drop)

ACT-AGE

Tatsuya Matsuki

I saw the short film Pandane to Tamago Hime at the Ghibli museum and have become a big fan of Pandane.

Black Clover

Yūki Tabata

Two of my staff members have come down with the flu. When they were healthy, they were shining with brilliance.

Zipman!!

Yusaku Shibata

The preview to next year’s MCU movie Black Widow was so cool! Can’t wait!

My Hero Academia

Kohei Horikoshi

It’s gotten really cold. I’ve gotten sick a lot this winter. My throat still hurts.

Dr. STONE

Riichiro Inagaki

This year had an anime adaptation, two serializations and more. I’m grateful to everyone! Have a happy New Year!

We Never Learn

Taishi Tsutsui

I was so honored to get to draw a poster with all the Shonen Jump heroines! Thank you to everyone who helped me out with the coloring!

Chainsaw Man

Tatsuki Fujimoto

I got scared because the oil I was using had expired a while ago.

Tsurun Hatomune

I had trouble getting out of bed this morning. I chose to go back to sleep instead of getting up…52 times! Ba-dum tish!

Samurai 8: The Tale of Hachimaru

Masashi Kishimoto

I saw The Irishman. It made me think that I want to live a full life while still being careful about things.

Mission: Yozakura Family

Hitsuji Gondaira

Yuzuru Hanyu and Nathan Chen were amazing, but my personal MVP was Kévin Aymoz in the kiss and cry area.

Dr. STONE Reboot: Byakuya

What a wonderful experience this was. I cannot thank you all enough!
