Volume 3Afterword
Hello everyone, it's been a while. Somehow, spring arrived without me noticing, and I, Hajikano, thought, "This winter feels very warm (staying at home)."
In the closing section of the previous volume, I mostly filled it with words of thanks, so this time, I'll include a lot of content related to Yamanashi. I'll mention a few things about the real locations that inspired the settings in the story, so please be careful if you're sensitive to spoilers or if you're looking forward to finding out which locations in Yamanashi appear in the story (is there anyone like that?).
First, let's talk about the cafe 'DRAGON CAFE.' The cafe's real name is 'DRAGON COFFEE' (published with permission). The nearest station is Ryuo Station on the JR Chuo Main Line, and the cafe is about a 20-minute walk from there. If you're driving, the cafe is right near the Futaba Smart Interchange on the Chuo Expressway. The cafe also has several parking spaces available. The rest is the same as described in the main story, so why not check it out for yourself (I'm not even trying to hide the fact that I'm promoting it again). Enjoying coffee while picnicking in the nearby Dragon Park is also fun!
Next is 'Maisagi Castle Park.' It is based on 'Maizuru Castle Park (also known as Kofu Palace).' It is located right in front of JR Kofu Station, so you can easily see it from the train window and won't get lost. Admission is free, so if you visit this area, please stop by. The view from the top is truly amazing! As for the 'Central Shopping District,' this area covers the southern part of the palace. There are many traditional stalls, and you can enjoy the charm of a traditional shopping street. You may want to combine a visit to the palace with souvenir shopping. This area is also close to the station. In addition, a certain Italian family restaurant is located in the station building, and the bakery where the two of them went crazy and did something (I'm trying to avoid spoilers) in Volume 1 is also there. If you're curious, please visit. ...Yeah, I think I'll fill this closing paragraph with more Yamanashi-related content, so I'll stop here.
Now, let's move on to the acknowledgments! God, Kuro-san, who always perfectly responds to the unreasonable requests of a slow author like me. And Daikome-san, whose signature line is, "I somehow knew this would happen (white eyes)." Thank you very much. I'll give you some Yamanashi peaches, which have the highest production in Japan, so please forgive me (I'm promoting Yamanashi again, aren't I). And finally! The manga version of 'Love is a Loser's Game' will begin serialization in 'Monthly Big Gangan Vol. 07 (Square Enix)' to be published on June 25th! For those who want to see various 7-ban-san that have only existed in your imagination until now, please check out the manga! Of course, there's also an electronic version! Alright, see you in the next volume! Will we finally see ♥♥♥♥ in the next volume...?

So Hajikano
Spring is the perfect time for outdoor activities! Grill meat over a campfire, brew coffee with mountain water, and get to work! Let's get to work!!
TL Note: Sorry for the delay, and we're also going to apologize that we're going to announce the cancellation of Volume 4, since there are already other groups that handle the translations, but don't worry, maybe we're going to come back with Volume 5 or 6 or Short Story Collections, who knows? Btw, Tomorrow's Our 4th Anniversary.
