5. "But don't they say that falling in love brings unease...?"
6. "Do you think that might be what's going on here?"
7. "I'm no expert,"

4. On what was said to be the hottest day of the year,
5. I and the editor in charge of my work, U-mura-joshi, were in Kamakura.
6. Our ultimate objectives were to go to the Kamakura Literature Museum and to eat curry at a restaurant that U-mura recommended. However...
7. "Oh! Let's go to the Yoshiya Nobuko Memorial Museum."
8. "Come on, let's go, let's go!"
9. "Soooo hot!"
10. Eating soba for lunch.
11. It was closed that day.
12. We're sorry, Yoshiya-sensei...
13. "Since we came all the way here, let's offer up a prayer to her!"
14. "Well, I'll at least get a picture of the outside."
15. "Well, the gate, really..."

2. "This would be a nice spot for a date, wouldn't it?"
3. I took tons from the bottom of the stairs too.
4. after asking permission,
5. "Excuse me..."
6. And
7. I took tons of pictures from behind the couple that was relaxing there.
8. Why did I set the story in Kamakura anyway...?
9. but most of them turned out terrible because I took them against the sun...
10. "Ha. Haha."
11. I kept on taking pictures, acting like I was a real photographer or something,
12. Even after they'd left.
13. I guess I really shouldn't just take pictures at random.
1. "What should I name the schools?"
2. "That hill has a wonderful name.—"
3. "Oh, this might be good for the road to the school."
4. It's fun to think of this and that
5. "I'll have them stop by a milk hall all the time!"
6. —with a guidebook in hand.
7. "Hunh."
8. "That's all."
9. "I guess I just thought it seemed like a really great place."
10. "I'm sorry."
11. I started whining right away,
12. and saw places that held beauty beyond imagination.
13. I got disappointed when places didn't look like I'd expected them to,
14. "My feet hurt. It's hot. I'm thirsty."
15. "Right, pictures, pictures."
16. "Oh...? It's just a normal residential area..."
17. "Yeah."
18. "Could we have come to the wrong place?"

22. "I feel like"
23. "I could draw forty pages...!"
24. "I have a lot of ideas."
25. "There's no way... I can do forty pages."
26. "Come on— on to the next place!"
27. "I had a nasty vision just now."
28. "That's the spirit!!"
29. The first installment was forty pages long.

3. It ended up just turning into a commemorative photo album...
4. barely any of the ones I took ended up being usable as references.
5. but because I'm so bad at taking pictures,
6. I decided to make the Kamakura Literature Museum the model for Fujigatani.
7. "It was really hot out that day..."
8. Make sure you draw proper backgrounds.
9. and my family tried to call and email me because they were worried about me, but I didn't notice at all and ended up causing them even more worry.
10. Apparently there was a murder near my house that day.
11. The next thing I knew, we were sitting around woolgathering at the Tsurugaoka Hachiman Shrine¹.
13. "We'd like two of those, then."
14. Unfortunately, the restaurant we went to only had curried rice...
15. "I don't care what it is, as long as it's curry..."
16. "I wanna have curry after all!"
17. But the instant we arrived in Fujisawa², our burning desire for curry returned.
18. And so we quietly left Kamakura
