Kaki no tane
Here’s a packet of regular-flavored Kaki-P:

There’re Kaki-P where the crackers are coated in various flavors of chocolate (milk, strawberry, cafe-au-lait, etc.), which helps offset the spiciness. There’s a wasabi-flavored Kaki-P which is pretty hot (but good with beer). There’re also the occasional sold-for-a-limited-time-only flavors. Last year there was a black-pepper-flavored one.

Harisen
The big fan Shukotan whacks Taikobo is is harisen, a prop used in comedy skits and in manzai (two-person standup comedy).
The fan makes a loud noise when you whack someone with it, but supposedly it doesn’t hurt as much as it looks.

I usually listen to Kalafina’s lacrimosa/gloria while working on this series. And occasionally serenato.

The Japanese tankobons have the chapter titles in both Japanese and English. FYI, here’re the translations of the Japanese titles:
I – The Innocent Calmness
II – The Tempest of Conviction
III – The Lost Child and the Black Rabbit
IV – The Place where Morning Light Shines

flat 3 came out last Saturday. To commemorate this, a bunch of Yurindo bookstore branches are exhibiting her manuscripts. So I went over to the Kawasaki branch, because I’d be able to a calendar card if I bought the tankobon there.
6 pages of actual b&w manuscripts were displayed, 3 double-spread pages. I was impressed that her manuscripts were so clean. I’d seen manuscripts with correction fluid all over, but her manuscripts didn’t have a drop of correction fluid on them.
flat is by Aogiri Natsu, and the series is running in monthly Comic Blade Avarus.
