2. Sakuragi here. Thank you very much for reading Anemone wa Netsu wo Obiru volume 2. In volume 2, there's a slow but visible change in the relationship between the characters. How did you enjoy it? I think that the yuri picked up the pace, at least. Nagisa, Mashiro, Uda-chan, Nanjou-senpai, the teacher, and Riri-chan. Lots of girls are showing up. How will they influence the story from here on out? I'd be happy if you joined me in volume 3. This time around, I drew an omake manga. It's about Nanjou-senpai and the nurse (with their first names finally being revealed here), depicting a typical exchange between them. As this is without Nagisa and the others, it allows for a more detailed look at the two of them, and an omake is the perfect place for something like this that usually wouldn't be in the main series. Of course, I'd be happy if you enjoyed the two's relationship as much as Nagisa's and Mashiro's!
3. Special Thanks! My editor Ootsuki-san, The designer Ito-san, My assistant Sato-san and their little sister, Everyone involved with this volume, And my dear readers! Sakuragi Ren
4. Being able to draw stories like this truly is a blessing, and it is all thanks to everyone's support, so I'd love for you to read the continuation!
5. "Thank you very much!"
1. "Akari-sensei..."
2. "Good work today."
3. "I still have some more work left to do."
4. "Hey, sensei."
5. But we can't be together until everyone else is gone.
6. "What is it now?"
1. "Why did you decide to become a school nurse?"
2. "Why are you asking me that now?"
3. "Why not? I'm curious."
4. "...I forget."
5. "Really?"
6. "Well..."
7. "What kind of person were they?"
8. "It's probably because of a former teacher of mine who I owe a lot."
9. "Someone who gave off a lot of warmth."
1. "So did you...?"
2. "Every day has been busy."
3. "So I went with the flow and became a teacher."
4. "It forces me to look after bothersome students, you see."
1. "So do you dislike me?"
2. "Of course not."
3. "Teachers don't hold any special feelings for their students."
4. "How cruel of you!"
1. "Sensei..."
2. "Nanjou..."
1. "Just kidding! Did I manage to surprise you today?"
2. "...I suppose you did."
3. "I'll be taking my leave for today."
4. "But I'll stop by tomorrow."
5. "Oh right, I have some more work left for the student council."
6. "Sure."
2. But in the end, I guess I'm still just a student.
3. I thought I could get closer to her as an adult if I became the student council president.
4. "Sigh"
5. "This whole thing was a huge waste of time then, huh?!"
6. "Sensei..."
7. "I want to become an adult soon."
1. "Hahh..."
2. "Geez."
3. "Hurry up and graduate already."
3. She's exactly the same as how I drew her back in Chapter 1.
4. Back then she was wearing a coat with nothing inside visible, so I went with that here too.
5. I really like her long, black hair.
7. A simple sailor uniform isn't half bad.
8. The innocent look suits her quite well.
9. I also drew her with hair that's a bit shorter.
