Halfway There!
Hey everyone! First things first, let’s talk updates.
I plan on releasing updates to both Volumes 1 and 2 of the ‘SPROUT!’ online chapters. These updates are purely for continuity purposes and will not reflect all the changes in the upcoming definitive editions (Such as professional editing & exclusive Art Work). As of today Volume 1 is updated and an update for Volume 2 will be coming in the near future!
Speaking of Definitive Editions, I know everyone is waiting for the official Volume 1 release. The initial plan was for Volume 1 Definitive Edition to be completed by end of Summer. Unfortunately it does not look like that will be happening. I and a few others are hard at work to putting together a great product so please just wait a little while longer. Make sure you're subscribed to the newsletter HERE so you don't miss when the release date is announced!
Now, let’s talk Volume 3! I think it’s been the most exciting arc so far, especially with all the fighting. ‘SPROUT!’ was always meant to be a story inspired by Battle Shounen such as Dragonball and One Piece but writing so many fights really pushed me to stay creative, I hope everyone really enjoyed it and tolerated my need to give this story a tournament arc!
As you can see from this blog title, with the end of this volume we’ve reached the halfway point for ‘SPROUT!’ I always had a clear estimate about how long I wanted this story to be and from the beginning which is 6 volumes.
So what does that mean as far as getting new chapters? Well, due to some things coming up in my personal life (marriage, yay!) I’ve had to put ‘SPROUT!’ on the backburner for a bit. Do not worry though! These next two months will be spent planning the second half of the series and preparing chapters for Volume 4. Let me just take a look at some of my notes so far;
…Hmm. Wait, this person is locked up? And this person is now working with them? And this is that person’s sister!?
Sorry I couldn’t resist! But yes, expect a lot of twists and turns in Volume 4 and beyond. Weekly Chapter releases coming soon so keep an eye out for any updates! See you in Volume 4!
