Limited Girl (FIN)

I want to take this opportunity to thank you for reading Hatsukoi Limited Vol. 4.
Since this is the last volume, I want to give you some afterwords.
The story
Talking about the story, most of the stories in this manga are about brothers and sisters. Well, maybe I was a little bit carried by my first plan of making a manga about siblings. That plan was sadly rejected. If I think over about it again, it was obvious that the plan got rejected.
So, my manager got somehow the idea of making this manga into a compilation of short stories. The fruit of the thought that we put together was Hatsukoi Limited. The serialization of this manga wasn't very long though. The following is some review about the characters.
Arihara Ayumi
She appeared in the first chapter already. Actually I wanted to make the story to be focused on her. And Yuuji, her brother, was planned to be the main character (Changing the story into girl's point of view was a suggestion from my manager).
Originally, I was thinking about a love-comedy story inside a family.

Name : Arihara Ayumi
Birthday : 3rd July
Blood type : O
Hobby : Thinking about her future together with Zaitsu-kun
Favorite food : Yakiniku

However it ended to become a school-life story. Though the manga has been altered into this (?), for me, the main characters are still Arihara siblings. I don't care what the others may say !. I love self centered girl, a girl who act first before she thinks, that's why drawing Ayumi was a great fun for me.
Bessho Koyoi
I have mentioned earlier that I wanted to write a manga about siblings. Koyoi is the second character who came to my mind and that's why her initial also begins with "B". By the way, during the announcement of the serialization of this manga, the character design of Koyoi and Chikura-chan hasn't had been completed yet. At first, I wanted to make her to have long hair and the tip of it is curly with a flat noodle - like shape (TN: Maybe like Hiro in Hidamari Sketch). Due to lack of popularity, my manager one sidedly changed the design and because of that I was once fell out of love with her (Oi !). As I continued to draw her, her stupidity came more and more on surface (In the new year - chapter in 2nd Volume, her stupidity came into perfection). After turning into her third character, she is the one I like the most within this manga.

Chikura Nao
Chikura-chan, that's how I call her since the first time I begun to draw her. She is a quiet girl, diligent and also rather plain. That part of her seems to make her pretty popular. Will she always keep her feeling for her Renjou-sempai in her heart ? Or will she finally accept Sogabe-kun's feeling ? I'm afraid the answer will remain a mistery forever. Speaking of Chikura-chan, she also has a brother. Actually I already have finished the main plot regarding him. However, my current manager insisted "Chikura-chan must come from a normal family !" and therefore my plot of making them to have a rich family background was rejected. Well, that was just a stupid matter, so I think it was the right thing not to write a story about him, yup.
Dobashi Rika
Also her, I call her "Doba-chan" since the beginning. My plan at first was to make this girl a rough girl, a tomboy and has a lively atmosphere around her. And then I wanted to give the impression "This type of girl will unexpectedly make the fastest progress" and she ended up to have a boyfriend at the first shot. But even so, Doba and Terai are lacking of communication that often lead into a crisis between them.

Will this crisis get worse and become a disaster !? I was intending to write some episodes about that kind of critical situation ! seriously. Well, it's already over and I want now to hear what you all are thinking about their relationship. If possible, please make Terai become a stronger man ....
Enomoto Kei
Drawing her hair is so tiresome !! Why did I give her such a hairstyle !? But curly hair was popular, wasn't it !? (Year 2007). That is my impression about Enomoto-san.
"She is beautiful and she will fall in love with a boy who doesn't have any good looking side at all", from this basic idea, the girl was born. But still, at the time we reached the story about Kusuda in the second chapter, I didn't really feel like making Kusuda to be her love partner. I just got remembered about that time (Though I actually don't want to look back at my old manuscript). I'm now regretting that I drew him with such an ugly face. If I have the opportunity to draw his adult form, I swear that I will draw him as a tall young man with a long hair and he has the eyes that make him look like a bad person. Enomoto-san will then fall more and more in love with Kusuda. That kind of future is what I'm hoping from them.

Enomoto Yuu
Next is the high schoolers to have their turn. She is Kei's older sister, Yuu. The girl was created to have a love affair with her teacher. However, it will be only her teacher who gets madly in love with her. This plan was also rejected and only her character remains. She appeared as a little devil who makes every type of men fall madly in love with her. Sadly, she didn't get any role anymore after the third chapter and became a side character only. She is the kind of girl whom I really like to draw a lot. If someday Yuu appears again with a different name in my other manga, please don't think "Ah ! She is just her copy !!". By the way, Enomoto sisters are a quarter englander, their grandmother come from England. Well, it's not really that important.
Watase Meguru
Among the 8 girls-main-characters, she is the last one I created. The person she loves looks her as his rival. Her situation is rather complex but all of the sudden she could come back to her old daily life, a life with her swimsuit on.

I was thinking that maybe her story could become a separate serialization as a sports-love-comedy story ? Now that the manga turned out to be like this, in my heart I kinda feel like a waste that I have included her in the story. I made her become the class representator and also the manager of swimming club, but I didn't have the chance to draw her much (*sob* *sob*). At first, I was intending to draw her Takei-sempai like a normal sportsman, but my current manager said "He looks better as a hot blooded and heroic character !". That's the story behind his thick eyebrow and somehow he became a favorite between the girls-assistants at my work place.
Yamaoto Misaki
It would be the best if the opened page of her love story could be closed neatly at the end of this manga. Having her love story to have such a rush end made me feel really uneasy .... right Yamamoto-san !?. Within this book, I was given the chance to make some revisions to her story with Arihara Yuuji (TN: there are 8 extra pages for chapter 31, please read below). Yamamoto is really hard to draw .... in many aspects. Beside her, Sogabe-kun is also as hard to draw as her. Their personality, their hair, Yamamoto-san and Sogabe are in general very hard to draw ! (What's with all the complains !?). To be viewed as whole, I think Yamamoto-san is very popular.

And about Sogabe .... I believe that his popularity was rising a little bit within the last chapters !!
Fudounomiya Sumire and Kyuuma Nanoka
Sumire was actually born when I was thinking about another story. At that time, I was holding the position vice-head in the manga club. My previous and current manager seemed to have some affection for her. We made a change of plan and put her as one of the characters in Hatsukoi Limited.
Q(Kyuu)-chan is taking the role as shorty girl. At first, she was planned to have long hair but that long hair looks pretty annoying when it comes to swimming. If I make her hair short, it will overlap Chikura-chan's hair and Meguru has also short hair, and so I came up with her present hair style. For the other characters who came afterwards, there is no other way but to dispose them. I myself think that the name Nanoka suits her well. I always have trouble when I have to give a character a name, but for this girl and Meguru, I came up pretty quick to their names.
Andou Soako
She is the "Limited Girl", the girl whom I thought out as a supplement for this comic.
181
Name : Watase Meguru
Birthday : 12th May
Blood type : O
Speciality : Swimming
Favorite food : Chocolate Parfait

How many percent of the readers who keep buying this comic because of her is a secret. Basically, I like to make this kind of idiotic story and therefore drawing her was so much fun. However, it will be soon out of the border if I continue making a story about her. To end her story only in 4 chapters is maybe the right thing to do .... ha ha ha
And lastly ....
There are some characters who didn't come into scene. They are all my precious and beloved sons and daughters. There are parts of this serialization that reflect some of my incapabilities, but if reading this manga can fill your heart with joy and make you cheerful even for a little bit, that will be the greatest pleasure for me as an author.
Until next time
