• Wakaki's own life story is pretty heartwarming too - after being given the Shogakukan Comics Award grand prize and being told his future for the next ten years were anticipated, multiple oneshots of his were shot down. He tried to work as an assistant, but it didn't get him anywhere, so he returned to his hometown of Osaka depressed. He then began to start a life as a hardcore shut-in. Thirteen years after the prize, one of his oneshots, "Holy Crystal Albatross", got published, and got quickly cancelled because of "low popularity". His bank balance dipped to below 10,000 yen - if he didn't get any money soon, he'd fall into debt. Finally, he submits The World God Only Knows and it becomes a smash hit online. Though it came close to being cancelled, it struggled through - and Wakaki managed to save his own life.
