===I want (them) to grow up looking only at beautiful things. (Essay)===

'''Note:''' {...} are used by the translator to write the Romanji version of the word in Japanese so that you can see the word-play. The rest of the notations are found at the bottom. Parentheses are from the original work by Takabayashi-sensei.

How are you doing? This is Takabayashi.  This is Takabayashi, who right now has stopped working {tomekiku} on her poorly written pieces. In this world there are many thrilling {tokimeku}, wonderful authors but there aren't other authors who have stopped working{tomekiku}. Takabayashi, you bastard! You're late to turn in the original, aren't chaa!? Stop-KICK {tomeKIKU} ! Gffffuu (bloody vomit)!!!  If you don't meet the deadlines you're getting another stop-KICK! Nnf nnf nnf nnf nnf nnf (echoes)<ref>Do you remember Charlie Brown's teacher talking? Well, that's what "Nnf, nnf" means.</ref> That's more or less how it feels. The TARGET is someone who has stopped working {tomekiku} and that person gets a wholehearted KICK. ...... GEG? GEG, was that you? I'm really sorry. Also, MERRY CHRISTMAS. It's cold. Outside, snow mixes in with rain as it falls.

Anyways, this doujinshi is R-15. Well, in other words, one could say that junior high school students and people younger than them are forbidden to touch(!?) it. The reason: indecency. I can't let you get ruined<ref>Spoiled, become dirty.</ref>. I want junior high school students (and if possible high school students as well) to grow up reading and looking only at beautiful things . .... And that's why, this will be a 'modest doujinshi from the author' of <maruMA>, although.... This is Takabayashi who needs to get used to writing the name of her series correctly<ref>MaruMA was not called maruMA for a while, she used to refer to her novels as KyouMA, KondoMA, etc. </ref>..... Well, that has something to do with "Ichitaro War Record"<ref>Another essay in this doujinshi where she complains about the word processor 'Ichitaro'.</ref> . At any rate, <maruMA>, which continues despite the many ups and downs (that I experience more than the main character), has a large percentage of readers who are female junior and senior high school students, which surprised me a lot. Even though this has not been confirmed independently, most of the readers of BEANS are young.
Of course, I also get letters from ladies in their twenties, thirties and forties. I get really happy when I read the comments of people my own age.
Actually, I turned 48 (my body's age)<ref>The "my body's age" clarification let's us know that she actually feels a different age. Also, OMG! SHE TOLD US!! SHE TOLD US!! Oh, but you can't tell anyone! Especially not sensei herself! Women never talk about their real age! This was published in December 2002. Enjoy, enjoy! Now you know!</ref> in August of this year. However, hearing from young girls (I sound like Mino Monta<ref>Japanese television presenter: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monta_Mino She was using the honorific before young and girl, it sounds like 'too much'.</ref>) is priceless. Even so, no one more than I is wondering why female junior and senior high school students like this story with an 'old fart' vibe. I thought that my target audience were women in their 20s who liked shounen manga, but... I wonder if the young ones understand my jokes?.... No, well, even if one doesn't understand the jokes that doesn't affect the main plot.  For a person with the liver of a 69 year old (it went up) to be known by female junior and senior high school students, is kind of insane. Is their SAVE button not working properly<ref>She probably means 'brain' by save button.</ref>? Drinking and smoking? No, no, no, you mustn't! FREE SEX?  N, nonononononononyou can't! Excess eating? No, no, no , no (why?). Since this doujinshi is full of these lowly things, it's a NO TOUCH for junior high school students, you know? So, please. And that's it. ■
