He currently works for Kodansha on Pandora, the Kodansha Box magazine, and Faust, a literary magazine containing the works of other young authors who similarly take influence from light novels and otaku culture. He was also publishing a 12-volume series over 12 months for the Kodansha Box line; fellow author Ryusui Seiryoin was matching this output, and the Kodansha Box website stated that this is the first time in the world two authors have written 12-volume monthly novel series simultaneously for the same publisher.
