Artist's commentary
This was the color preface to "Ami-chan's first love" which was even made into a movie (awesome!). I never in my wildest dreams imagined that this manga would become a movie. At a private showing, all the fans watching it gave it a big reception, and I was very happy, but also a little embarrased. In the picture, the book that Ami-chan is reading is an ecchi book.
