This item is from my home collection. The contents are in like-new, excellent condition, but it is 23 years old, so there is some aging on the cover, etc. I would appreciate it if you could consider this, understanding that.

I was looking forward to Kaoruko Himeno, but I was also thrilled to see Hiroko Minagawa. I was disappointed that her personality was different from what I imagined, or I was happy, or I came to dislike her even more, or I came to like her because of this opportunity, or I was deeply moved to realize that this person is already dead. Some edgy authors might have this as a black history because it's a bit old.
