Its that day again this year.
(I used a text generator to make this, sue me.) A black-and-white manga page about Kikuri’s birthday and her uncertain age. The large top panel shows a smiling young woman with braided hair, closed eyes, and an open mouth, raising a can of sake. A speech bubble says she is celebrating another year, while a boxed caption identifies September 28 as Kikuri’s birthday. The page has dotted halftone shading and decorative circular patterns in the background. The middle-left panel shows two characters discussing conflicting age information: one source says Kikuri is 25, while the sleeve of volume 5 says she has turned 26. Another speech bubble explains that the manga’s timeline differs from the real world and from the “Heavy Drinking Diary” series. In the middle-right panel, Kikuri and two other characters discuss how old she is. The large bottom-left panel shows Kikuri again, smiling with her eyes closed and holding the sake can, with speech bubbles reading “In any case, cheers!” and “Oh well!” The bottom-right panel shows three characters holding books and discussing the timeline of the series, including a reference to “Sazae-san time.” The sake can is labeled with Japanese text, including “おにころ” and “日本酒.”
