	1. Volume 8's afterword was disguised as the end pages of a novel (author's book listing, copyright page, publisher's contact information, etc). It would really escape the reader's attention at first glance because the layout of the pages were preserved, but the text actually contains Sigsawa's ramblings. I couldn't think of a way to convert to English and preserve the trick at the same time, so I just scanlated the pages, and added explanations.		1.

	The characters in the names were played with. "Keiichi Sigsawa" became "Waruichi Shigueki". Two characters were replaced by similar-looking characters in the author's name, from '時雨沢恵一' to '時雨駅悪一'. So the 'sawa' was changed to 'eki' which means station, and the 'kei' was changed to 'aku', which means evil, but this can also be read as the 'waru' in 'warui' to mean bad, etc. Meanwhile, "Kouhaku Kuroboshi" was changed to "Hakuboshi Koukuro". The characters in the name of the illustrator was jumbled from '黒星紅白' to '紅黒白星'. This is most likely not a correct or usual reading of this name. The syllables were jumbled simply to get the point across.		The characters in the names were played with. "Keiichi Sigsawa" became "Waruichi Shigueki".

''Anison'' parodies the title of another work by Keiichi Sigsawa, "Allison". This one has received 3 volumes, the 3rd one divided into 2 parts. ''Anison'' is also a slang for "anime song".

''the Beautiful Socks'' - the original kanji for 'tabi' in the title (which means 'journey') was changed to the character for 'socks', which is also read as 'tabi'. The titles were left untranslated because the subtitles in English are self-explanatory.

''ICBM'' numbers - parodies the ISBN numbers of the book. Don't bother getting your calculators. ICBM may mean 'Intercontinental ballistic missile'. Not far-fetched, considering the fact that it was Sigsawa who wrote this.
