1. "Wow! This came out amazing!"
3. The cuteness of her façade.
4. There it is.
5. "I'm sure sensei's gonna love this! ★"
6. "Everyone really gave it their all here!"
9. "Sorry that we had to ask you to make it all over again, mamiya-san."
10. "...when we found out that the signboard had been destroyed."
11. "I was worried about how it was all going to come out..."
12. ...is all an act.
13. I'm the only one who knows that Shiraki-san's cuteness...
Loading…Loading…
1. "Everyone else helped out, too."
2. "...it's... All right."
3. "..."
5. "We all really should've pitched in from the start!"
6. "I'm not really worried about it, so..."
7. "Seeing it smashed up like that really ticked me off!"
8. "Looks like you pulled it off a bit today, mamiya-san."
Loading…Loading…
1. "I'm glad to be able to let down my façade when it's just the two of us..."
2. "All I did was say just what you taught me to, though..."
3. "You can do it when you put your mind to it."
4. "A façade."
5. "Th..."
6. "That's not true at all...!"
7. "...I don't think I'll have much left to offer you."
8. "But if you keep it up like this and learn to form a façade all on your own..."
9. "...and if you weren't here, I don't know what I'd do..."
10. "There's still so much more that I want to be able to do for you..."
11. "I've only been able to get this far from being around you..."
12. "And earlier, I was only able to manage because I saw your face..."
2. Thank you very much!
3. "Looks like volume 3 got here before I even realized it!"
4. "Salutations! Miman here!"
5. Gyaru-senpai and Kanoko's Fated Meeting
6. "I finally got to share one of those: Sumika's backstory...! Please let me talk about it!"
7. "In the afterword of volume 2, I touched on some "things I wanted to do that got postponed.""
9. This set the stage for Kanoko's meeting with gyaru Sumika.
10. She knows her when she's "On," but she has no idea who this gyaru is.
13. Sumika is a fantastic character, with her gyaru -> intellectual transformation. She was created to fill an interest gap in Liebe's cast.
14. I had to make sure that Kanoko never saw Sumika in gyaru-mode...
15. "..."
16. But it kept getting postponed...
18. This was accomplished pretty early on while I was plotting. (*Before the start of serialization)
19. "Let's have this happen in Shift 4."
1. I want to set up Sumika's character, but I can't even draw it!
2. After Shift 1, I didn't get the chance to introduce it again until all the way at the end of volume 2, in Shift 11!
3. "What? Whaaat?"
4. I had no chance to draw it, even though it's one of the most interesting parts of Liebe!
5. "There's no chance to fit in gyaru Sumika anywhere!"
6. Before I realized it...
7. "I see..."
8. This is the story of the first time that Kanoko sees so-called "gyaru" Sumika.
11. Perhaps because of that, Sumika's gyaru form still left somewhat of an impression...
13. Still, I had to continue to resist. I was only able to get a bit of her "gyaru" impression back with Hime calling her "Gyaru-senpai."
14. "...put off drawing gyaru Sumika the whole time just for the sake of this story!!!"
16. "I've..."
17. "Still..."
18. "...we'll have to double check that Kanoko hasn't seen gyaru Sumika even once before this."
20. Until the day that we might meet again!
22. So from here on out I'll keep setting those surprises up, for as long as my strength allows me!
23. Having things that I really want to do already laid out is like the giddy feeling of knowing you've hidden a present away.
24. Anyway, that was how I was finally able to draw one more plot point that I had laid out.
2. Salutations.
3. It's the season of green new beginnings,
4. and the Blume selection period has begun.
5. Even if you can't cast your own vote,
6. I would love for everyone to cheer their favorite students on.
