Author's Commentary #711:
Time to talk about Chapter 711: Convenience store product placement ad.
This only came to be simply because of what chapter number we're on. Other than that, there's not much here.
I feel as though I'll be taking a main story break from this for a bit in order to better refocus. With the new contest coming up, I want to get some work done on it, as well as finish up Volume 5 of EPGM, so I can get on to the start of the Chess Olympics in Volume 6. The volumes certainly have my attention span over this, but the good news is my focus will likely return once Chess Olympics is fully adapted as after that, I'd probably only have a volume's worth of additional content after. That, and I'd want to get the World Chess league arc done proper so that I have more stuff to adapt. The good news on that front is that the new games I add to the volumes, assuming they aren't repurposed games from cut chapters, will be showcased here. Currently in Volume 5, I've got 3 or so new games planned so expect to see those here. In the meantime, Mr. Filler will be taking over while I rest up. Don't worry, I'll edit him out when I'm rejuvenated and can write with more focus again.
That's all for this commentary. I hope you enjoyed it.
