Comment
"When your page numbers are limited,the story is directed so that the characthers and settings are also limited.This is a work that began from that sort of thinking.My editor at that time went as far to say :

''I love cats so much. Their the hope of my heart in my daily life .'' and my reply was : But i bet you would eat them if you got lost on the andes mountain. My little teasing gave birth to this work."
