Kio caught COVID at the beginning of the month. He went to the hospital (which is a very normal thing in Japan), got some medicine, and his fever broke around the 5th. He also thanks all the fans who wished him well. 

Kio is drawing swimsuit art for the release of a volume next month—appropriate for the heat.

Kio impressed with a well-endowed lady from Chapter 14 of the manga Dekapai Kishi Makari Tooru!, or The Big-Boobed Knight Goes Unpunished.

Kio finds the design of the manga Isshinjo no Kaii to be really appealing.

The last of the Rakuen web extras for the period are up. Kio encourages everyone to read them.
