I've realized that I've reached my mid-40s. If I'm to live to the age of 70 or 80, then I've already passed the halfway point. This is a bit of a difficult topic to write about, but I'm starting to wonder if I'm alright the way I am. Am I walking the right path? One needs satisfaction on that front, and both Gyro and Johnny are seeking that satisfaction in this race. That is the theme of this manga. (To be continued in Volume 8.)
わたし(飛呂彦)も気付いたら40代半ばになってしまっていて、仮に人生70歳とか80歳まで生きるとしたなら、とっくに折り返し地点を過ぎてしまった事になる。で、ちょっとこムズかしい事を書くけど、最近良く考えるのは、自分はこんなんでいいのか? という事だ。自分は「正しい道」を歩いて来ているのだろうか?
「納得」する事が必要で、ジャイロもジョニィも「納得」する為にこのレースに出ているわけで、それがこのマンガのテーマってわけで……。(8巻に続く)
