Recently, the creation experience of Kamachi Kazuma, who is known as the "human typewriter", was exposed. Compared with Yoshihiro Togashi, this person is simply writing with his life. However, when will the third season of "A Certain Magical Index" appear in heaven?

Kamachi Kazuma is a Japanese Dengeki Bunko author. His work passed the third review at the 9th Dengeki Novel Award. Although he did not win the award, he was noticed by the editor in charge. He made his debut in April 2004 with "A Certain Magical Index". By 2014, the cumulative sales of the "A Certain Magical Index" series exceeded 15 million copies, and the original novel is still popular. Since his debut, he has maintained a publishing speed of 3 to 4 books a year. Since "和马" in Chinese sounds the same as "河马" in Chinese, some people in the Chinese circle jokingly call him "河马".
