Skebのギブアップに関するお詫び
Added 2025-10-16 11:50:15 +0000 UTCいつも作品をご覧いただきありがとうございます。mirudoraです。
この度4ヶ月ほどお待たせしていたskebのリクエスト2件について、
大変申し訳ないのですがギブアップという形を取らせていただきました。
リクエスト承認後に休止していた商業案件の再開が決まり、
スケジュールの管理がうまくいかず、
ご依頼頂いた漫画を最後まで描き切ることができない状態となってしまいました。
ご依頼くださった2名の方には、長くお待たせした上で、
私の力不足によりこのような対応となってしまい本当に申し訳ございません。
現在は商業および同人の執筆作業が重なっているため、
次回のskebリクエストの募集再開は未定ですが、
同リクエストを再度頂いた場合は最優先で真摯に対応させていただきます。
ご理解のほど何卒よろしくお願い致します。

Hello, thank you for the very detailed explanation, it must have been hard for you to juggle your schedule. Regarding your suggestion, I actually prefer it if you didn't post it on pixiv, since I like to keep my request private. I also prefer to receive a complete version of my request, so I don't mind waiting until you open Skeb again. I also want to properly pay you for your service, since I believe your art is worth the expense. Thank you and I very much appreciate your transparency.
Thanks
2025-10-18 06:12:11 +0000 UTCI have one suggestion. Since I don’t know when I’ll be able to reopen Skeb, rather than keeping you waiting with nothing for a long time, I was thinking of posting the character illustrations and the storyboard (it’s a simplified but fully readable version) of your manga on pixiv. However, I believe it would be wrong and disrespectful to post them without your permission, so I wanted to ask you here first. What do you think? I’d like to proceed in a way that aligns with your wishes. There’s no rush to reply, and if it’s troublesome, please feel free to ignore this message. I truly regret how things turned out this time. I’m very sorry—and thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment.

But because the commercial offer came right after I had accepted your request, I thought I could manage both if I worked hard enough. In the end, I couldn’t make it, and I’m deeply sorry. I apologize for the long explanation. From your perspective, this may sound like nothing but an excuse, but I believed that explaining the situation in full detail would be the most honest and sincere way to handle this as a person.

2025-10-17 23:53:02 +0000 UTCAt the end of last year, I released my first commercial book, and afterward, I temporarily paused my commercial projects to focus on my doujin work and Skeb requests. At that point, my schedule was manageable. However, soon after that, my commercial work was resumed. I can’t go into much detail about the nature of the project, but at first, I explained that I would be able to start working in November. Then it was decided that, rather than doing nothing until November, I would begin progressing little by little within the range of what I could do. Although the pace was very gradual, the work did begin—and as a result, it ended up taking more time than expected. (Of course, this was a perfectly reasonable decision from the editor’s side, so the responsibility lies entirely with me.)

2025-10-17 23:52:03 +0000 UTCThis message was translated from Japanese using ChatGPT, so I apologize if any of the wording sounds unnatural or incorrect. Hello, and thank you very much for your comment. I sincerely apologize for disappointing you after you had waited for four long months with such anticipation. Since Skeb doesn’t allow direct messages, I had been hoping to apologize to you directly, so I truly appreciate you reaching out here. Regarding the manga you requested: I had already completed the character designs and decided on their outfits, names, and personalities. The storyboard (rough draft) was also finished, with the layouts, paneling, and total page count all determined. However, as the deadline approached, I realized that I wouldn’t be able to finish it in time. Because your request involved a significant payment, I felt it would be more respectful to cancel and issue a refund rather than rush through the work at the last minute and deliver something incomplete.

2025-10-17 23:51:24 +0000 UTCHello, I am one the the users that had my request about the personality extraction comic cancelled. I'll be honest I was very disappointed and upset when I received the news that you had given up on my request after waiting for 4 months. I assumed you didn't like the content of my request and delayed it till the last minute before cancelling it. Thank you for posting this apology and explaining your situation. I'll hold you to your words and give it another try the next time mirudora-san open Skeb again.
Thanks
