It feels like the author themself has close friends who love to drink. Because the way they writes Kikuri's interactions with her friends is incredibly realistic lmao.

According to this Vol 1 release interview, yes.

He's the one most sober among all his friends and usually be the one that take care of their drunkness, and that because Kumicho himself can't stand much alcohol to be drunk with.

Probably only in Japan can you wear a clothing from one religion and do some pretend religion stuff in another religion’s place of worship, and yet everyone who comes will be just as happy anyway.

And so the author is pretty much Shima.
Makes me wonder how much Shima’s stress relief can be associated with the author’s.

I'm starting to love this spin-off more than the main manga. Hiroi (and other chars) is painfully relatable sometimes.

So, all this time the main author avatar was Shima?

Isn't author a woman?

Kumicho is a man I think (not sure on that), Hamazi is a woman, yes.

Hiroi is my wife. She is so cute and beautiful. I love her. I love her so much.

I feel like the standard manga format instead of 4-koma helps a lot with telling a story that doesn't have to rely on gags too much, it's not like 4-koma hadn't dealt with serious plots from time to time but the format itself is built around putting a joke every 4 panels so it's not like so dealing with less funny topics, even without any drama, becomes harder.

I kind of would like for the main manga to adopt a standard format for more serious or important episodes, like what we had for the sisters' backstory.

It must be nice to have strong internet reception everywhere where you can video call your family anytime.
