Morio: Oh, sorry. I'm Morio. I was a bit oblivious... Oh dear. I was hit by Kobayashi-kun's wave of happiness. Morio: Did any of you reading this story feel things were a bit off; like " Huh? This is a school story by Morio"? There probably are! Right! Actually... Morio: What I've done this time is a 'street clothes' school! Even though I'm a woman that loves uniforms. Morio: It's not as extreme as a 'promotion'. ... not even a 'ta-da'.... Then it's my own game...? ... oh well. Narration: From a casual comment by my previous editor, it carelessly became 'street clothes'. It flowed out of a plan for a 'street clothes' contest. T: The street clothes are cooler. Narration: And so, you could say, just the street clothes were left. (laugh) Narration: To what was supposed to be a 3 story serialization was added 3 more episodes, with each person in each episode needing 2 garments. Times 4 Kobayashi. Last time I was panicking while making them. I was long awaiting the time with exercise clothes... but this jersey is also a pain. Sign: Model - Yuri-chan. ~~~~ Sign: And so here's a part of the street clothes templates. Narration: For me, the worst accessory to do is SHOES!! They're one of the things I have to look at a picture to draw well. ..... there's lots of things I'm not good at... (laugh) [Fubuki's clothes (top)] Shirt: Check 2 C-215 Belt: black Jeans: IC ami 50 Shoes: black. Narration: This kind of work takes me half a day each time. However, the difficulty doesn't show in the manuscript... (laugh) Please forgive my mother who has no fashion sense. Morio: I give this page to my assistants and leave it to them. Good work guys. ... It figures. I would be grateful for uniforms.

[Translators note: not sure on this ] Shoes Narration: The most fun, of course, was Fubuki's clothes. Many of Yamato's clothes came from a children's clothing catalog. (laugh) Yamato: Children's clothes...? Morio: Hey, my 'mail order' hobby is coming in handy. ~~~~~~~~ Narration: I drew this while thinking that if "Saint Hyper Guard" is a 'work to make one cheerful', it'd be nice if "The Extra-Kobayashi-kun" is a 'work to make one happy'. Fubuki: Why you- Narration: Even if it's just while you're reading this book, it'd be nice if you'd feel like you've become a member of 1-A and are playing together with them. If you've had fun, please let me hear your opinions. If you're interested in Morio's works, there're many others, please take a look. Then let's meet again. See You Again. Thanks, see ya. [Translator's note: send letters to the address in the box - it's printed a bit clearer on the next page. It'd probably be easier, though, to use e-mail] ------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not use this translation without permission!
