◇Comment from Tsuyoshi Kusanagi
This book is a compilation of the serialization I have been doing since March 1996 in the monthly magazine The Television. It is the third volume. In terms of dramas, I have the "Boku Series" and the "Senso Series" - it seems that I have a connection with trilogies. "Okiraku" is also 1, 2, 3, hop, step, jump. It's getting more and more exciting (laughs). I'm very happy that the footprints of my life that I have lived in this world remain. When I open the pages, I can go back to that time. I think of it as my own "door to anywhere."
