■Hisaka's Commentary This is a folded booklet of Memories Leading Up to the Encounter, a kind of epilogue. It's the one where the two of them go into a cafe for tea at the very end. I don't think there was any particular description in the original work that Merry loves sweets and eats a lot of them, but it's a common trait of Merry in our works. Hiyori-san came up with most of the ideas for that part. Incidentally, the reason this particular booklet has a different title is because, just like with the desserts, Hiyori-san named it herself. It's hard to describe, but the atmosphere emanating from the title is different, isn't it? It gives off a sweet feeling.

■Hiyori's Side Note A story about what happened after Memories Leading to the Encounter. It's a bonus folded booklet. I came up with the title myself, but now I'm wondering if blueberries would have been better for Merry than strawberries. Now of all times! Merry eats a parfait at the end. A really big one.
