In addition to the main story, we’ve also included short story and +α story.
So please enjoy Mr. Kawasaki being teased by everyone.

This is the menu list on the table of Yamaha-chan and her friends.
I personally really like this kind of handwritten style of izakaya(Japanese pub) menus, so I wrote it this way this time. What do you think of this menu list of my desire, imagination, and momentum? Is there anything on the menu that you like? If you like alcoholic beverages, please take a look at the menu list and fantasize about various things.
I actually struggled a lot with drawing this suit I wore for my university graduation in the short manga.
The reason for my struggle was because it brought back memories of conversations I had with the guys from the same seminar when I graduated from university. At the time, they were discussing, ‘For graduation, it’s better to wear a suit that’s not a job-hunting suit.’ As they talked, I vaguely nodded, thinking, ‘Ah, so there’s a culture where girls wear hakama for graduation, so there’s also a culture for guys to participate in good suits,’ or something like that.
Right…
Isn’t now the perfect time to put to use that conversation I heard back then, which felt like it had nothing to do with me?!
So, I searched ‘university graduation men’s suits’ on Google, went back and forth between suit shop websites and Instagram, dug up the group photo from when I graduated from university… and ended up spending a whole day on just this one panel.
It’s tough when you’re working alone and the workload piles up, but well, having this kind of freedom is really nice, isn’t it? ☺
I’d be happy if you could feel the difference in atmosphere between the current Kawasaki and his friends and the Kawasaki and his friends at the time of university graduation, even with the same suit.
By the way, I participated in my university’s graduation ceremony wearing the job-hunting suit I used for job interviews. It’s because I thought, ‘Hakama or suit, they’re definitely going to get dirty…’ since I was planning to go straight to a drinking party after the graduation ceremony.
It was very refreshing to finally depict the reason for the distance between Suzuki-Kun and Kawasaki-Kun.
I would be happy if you could keep an eye on what they have been doing and what they will be doing in the future.
I wonder if it will turn out to be a good thing or a bad thing that I am good friends with Suzuki-Kun, who is from IS DEPT (the customer), so please look forward to the future developments~👋
