The original work depicts the high school life of the five Nakano sisters (quintuplets) and their classmate and tutor Futaro. The childhood of the quintuplets appears frequently throughout the story. One of the important elements of the story is the pancakes that their mother made for them when they were children.
The picture book uses the “memories of pancakes and mother” as a hook to develop a completely original story.
The story is set before the quintuplets started elementary school, when they were much younger than they were in the original novel.
In depicting a time period not found in the original work, this work was supervised by Negi Haruba in order to faithfully follow the image of the original, not only in the storyline, but also in the appearance of the house where the quintuplets lived, the quintuplets’ clothes, pajamas, and the outfits they wore at their mother’s house.
The quintuplets live together under one roof. This work depicts the brilliance of a certain scene from their childhood in detail. It is like a memory album of the quintuplets.
As a bonus, the Nakano family’s secret pancake recipe will also be revealed for the first time. Furthermore, this picture book is full of gimmicks that will make fans of the original manga say “Ah!” Please look forward to the release.
