Hajimete, Kanojo to

This manga revisits the beginnings of several couples from the author's earlier works. It explores how Sarina and Sumi began their relationship and explains why they have never been officially together, concluding with Sarina realizing that while living with Sumi is not what she wants, traveling with her is. Shinobu and Lalaa have been cohabiting, with Lalaa content but occasionally nostalgic for the younger, more emotional version of Shinobu. The story then shifts to Sayaka and Ruri, where Sayaka's aspirations have evolved, though she remains at peace with her current path. Finally, it looks back at Mitsuki and Kaoru's school days, detailing their friendship, how they became a couple, and their experiences during their first relationship.
