Finally read V5 of this, which the anime was faithful too, even if production wise it struggled a little bit. These are short volumes in general, but think it might have been basically 1.5 episodes of the anime.

The omake at the end was both really cute about the zoo date, and depressing.

#Egatae Takizawa is such a good mentor. She knew that this spinoff was both what Nashida needed at this time to grow, and what Futami did not need at this time to grow as well, as she continues on with her own manga.

#Egatae Nashida, no NTR with Nekonote, bad girl.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae The power of Nekonote's childish gentleness and gratefulness is making their inner mommies swoon lol.

#Egatae Nashida, stop worshiping her for now and ask her out. You can worship her later in bed as she takes you to heaven.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Takizawa has gotten Nashida to work so hard she can't drink, so that's a good thing, but also nice that the others are offering to help get this spinoff manga done as well.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Unfortunately doing the storyboards as a more yuri oriented manga is not what Takizawa needs for this spinoff.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Nashida, she is begging you to ask her out again for a full date. I know you're all loving her over here, but you do need to actually ask her out.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Between the plushie and taking the sakura pedal from Toko's hair, Nashida has some game as well, but she's all weak and swooning to the effect that then had on Toko.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Wow, how flustered and happy Nashida got when Toko went in for that hug. Also good for them (and Nekonote) in getting the crane prizes they sought.

I also caught that it was a doggie plushie that Nashida won for Toko, something to remind her of their date.

#Egatae Nashida being flustered by some incredibly lewd hand holding (and more Amano stalking them in the background).
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Nashida...she keeps giving you hints. It doesn't matter if the movie is boring, she is enjoying herself because she is out with you.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Toko's powers include making the others go crazy for her as well. Also, pretty sure you just have to ask her out Nashida, and you would score that girlfriend that is actually her, not just like her.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Toko is so damn smooth, and Nashida is incredibly gay and down bad for her.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae The "observation" of this date by Futami and Ha-san, further corrupting Nekonote (and really should be taking her out on a sightseeing visit on her trip), along with as pointed out by others, Amano watching Toko having this date as well
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Takizawa knows that there is a shallowness to Nashida's writing, and knows the only way to get that is with lived experiences, so time for Nashida to go out on a (work) date with her crush Toko.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae There is probably more to it than she thinks, and I would assume Nashida is talented, but definitely went into the romance genre very shallowly.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae This also feels like of rude to Sato, assuming she has so much free time at work as to be able to have a new meeting right away, but at least Nekonote can call and try to set up a new meeting, to go over her storyboards at least, then get feedback on where to go next.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Definitely good advice to ask for help when needed, but also the angel editors in the background, as the ones who provide that helpful salvation.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae When factoring in Sato's personality...that was one awkward first in person meeting lol. Though this is also on Futami as her mentor. She should have prepared Nekonote on what to do in these meetings, as someone who has gone through this process in the past.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae This feels like a disaster, having Nekonote come into contact with Nashida, but they had no choice. At least she can flatter Nashida as a fan who has all of her books.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae I want to gripe at "only 25", but that is probably a bit on the older side within that industry for someone without having their first successful work.

...Also sensei, I see that box on the left. You may want to lay off the smoking just a bit.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae This series has quite a bit of Kuzushiro's self insert venting, whether the callous impersonal attitudes of editors, or just the anxieties of how precarious your livelihood is within this industry.
December 16, 2025 at 10:58 PM
#Egatae Also this probably shouldn't be a shock either lol. I'd assume almost every mangaka has had something either rejected or cancelled at one point or another.
