The questioner’s entitlement… this question is the ultimate example.
Do you really think that if you ask a question, you’re automatically entitled to an answer…?
Why would you think that way…?
You fool…! That’s a completely absurd misconception…!
When it comes down to it, society never answers anything truly important.
It’s not just companies or government agencies—even individuals are like that. Adults don’t answer questions.
That’s the basic rule. It’s precisely because you’ve misunderstood that
you’ve ended up here, asking questions in a box like this.
Of course, there are some adults who do answer questions.
But they only do so because the content is convenient for them to answer.
Trusting something like that simply means you’re being taken in.
Why can’t you see that…?
Sure, I don’t mind. Answering your question would be easy.
But if I were to tell you something, how would you determine whether it was true…?
Would you say you want to hear it regardless of whether it’s true or not?
You, who have already come here to this question box, have no way to verify it.
In the end, your only option is to blindly believe whatever you’re told…
That’s all it is: nothing more than empty reassurance.
I agree with Kazu. Asking questions in a place like this in hopes that someone will share unreleased, unofficial information makes me think, “What kind of unemployed shut-in does that?” (I’m not trying to insult anyone—I’m just honestly describing how it comes across to me.)
If you have friends or acquaintances in the real world, you’d normally hear at least some of that kind of information. Though even then, since it hasn’t been officially announced, it’s still just a rumor.
The questioner may not realize it, but it looks like they’re shouting, “I don’t have friends like that, and I have no connections, so stop being mean and just tell me!” It comes across as pretty pathetic, so even if it’s meant as casual conversation, you should probably stop. This is advice offered out of kindness.
Also, one thing to add for Kazu: just because a place is “black” doesn’t mean you can blatantly try to pry unofficial information out of the staff. Obviously, they’ll dislike you for that, so be careful. They have risks and stress to deal with too. Building a good relationship with them comes first. If you have a good rapport, they might let something slip themselves when you casually ask—that’s all I mean.
P.S.
This is completely unrelated, but Shingori-san posted a new column with the line, “If you have any questions, please feel free to leave them in the comments section below.” Yet, as usual, the comments are still closed.
In WordPress, you have to open “Quick Edit,” rather than “Edit” on the post screen, check the comments option yourself, and click “Update,” or they’ll remain closed. Also, if you make changes under “Edit” and click “Submit for Review,” the checkmark gets removed, so you have to go through the same process again.
It’s obvious from the article that they want to open the comments, so I wish the staff member in charge of the column would take the initiative and open them.
Kazu’s comments are closed too, but is that Kazu’s choice?

If you’re that interested, why not look into it yourself?

As for the affiliated establishments, people in the industry can simply interview them themselves, while everyone else can just wait until the information is announced.
If you’re an ordinary person who wants to hear pre-announcement information and act like you’re in the know, I suggest starting by building relationships with people involved（笑）
If you join Universe Club at the Black level and make plenty of offers, you’ll probably get to know at least one staff member who’s willing to help you out.
Adding this after reading Mac’s answer:
> Kazu’s comments are closed too—is that what Kazu wanted?
I hadn’t written anything in a while, and when I did, I found that the comments were closed. I’m pretty sure they used to be open when posts were first published.
I received a notification saying it had been published, but when I checked, there was no comment section, so I opened it a little while ago.
Thank you for taking the time to look.
