## **Summary**

Izumi has a thing for her new tutor, Takadou. However, Takadou is listless and spacey, and she only cares about things from the past. Izumi even goes so far as to cut her hair to get Takadou to look at her, but she doesn't even notice that anything is different with Izumi. Izumi asks her outright if Takadou likes anyone, but Takadou says that she prefers people from history who have accomplished amazing things.

Izumi toils over Takadou's answer and how to get her to like Izumi. She wants to make her look more at the present. So, she asks Takadou for a reward if she does well on her exams. Takadou absentmindedly agrees.

***Yuri-drill*** (百合ドリル Yuri Doriru) is a yuri anthology series created by Oku Tamamushi and published under KADOKAWA since March 2018.

## **History**

The series was originally based around "drill-style" manga, with each comic only being one page long. In the first two volumes, the stories stayed one page long and were sectioned by a theme. The third volume had a base drill page, along with a short story following it. The fourth volume ditched the single page concept, instead having four page long manga with an illustration. The fifth returned the single page oneshots. The original concept came from Oku Tamamushi, who had been doing a similar project on her website.

The first volume became very popular, so it became a series.

You put 3 Cards in a formation (or, line) and battle! when a card dies, it switches out to the next card in line. No cards left, you Lose!!!!

### Team Up Battle

Added as a part of Wave 2. This is the 3 v 3 where all cards are out at once. speed still applies here though. P.S. Supports are most useful in this mode!

### Battle Royale

Added as a part of Wave 3. This is the big battle one where it's a free for all with 4-20 people battling! you can only hit the people in your radius. and in this mode, you always have a apple that can be used to heal 20 hp. (one time use though.) When someone attacks you the speed rules (more speed = go 1st) still apply, and if 2 people were to attack you that would count as two turns.

"The original manga and spinoff novels are both complete, and I think I've drawn everything I needed to draw. So as of now, there's nothing left in the *Bloom into You* world that I haven't shared with all of you.

And now, I've has many talented creators draw stories of things that "might have also happened" on that completed *Bloom into You* world. I couldn't be happier. It's thanks to all of the readers' support that we were able to make a second volume. I truly appreciate it!

### Author

Nishio Shiori

***"Tears in the Clean Room"*** (クリーンルームの涙 Kuriinruumu no Namida) is the second chapter of the first volume of *éclair*, written by Nishio Shiori.

## **Summary**

Tsugumi spotted her very close friend, Kei, making out with an upperclassman after school. At school, she tries to forget about it or brush it off, but once again finds the two of them together during break.

During lunch, Tsugumi confronts the upperclassman, Miyanoki. Miyanoki, however, realizes that Tsugumi has a crush on Kei. Tsugumi is disgusted by the thought and runs off, but she can't get MIyanoki's words out of her head.

After school, she asks her friends what they would think of two girls getting together. Her friends have a negative response, which makes her try to further deny her feelings.

She runs into Kei afterwards. She reflects on her feelings, calling them purer than what she saw. She gets more stressed out being around Kei and eventually snaps at her and begins to cry. After consoling Tsugumi, Kei confesses that she is in a relationship with Miyanoki. Tsugumi says that she's rooting for Kei, secretly happy that her feelings can remain untainted.

## **Author Comment**

"Pleased to meet you. My name is Nishio Shiori. Thank you very much for inviting me to join this wonderful anthology. As I was coming up with this story, I thought about the nature of yuri and of female bonding. It was fun to draw a girl wavering between love and friendship."

Bruce Elm

> Bruce is a self-centred man, with finely honed instincts for self-preservation.
>
> -Bio from Summoners Not Included, The Blair Wisp Project and What Lies Over the Cuckoo's Nest?

> Being trapped in the woods with the Darkling has ravaged Bruce and driven him insane.
>
> -Beta version of the Bio from The Blair Wisp Project

**Bruce Elm** is a student at a Gravenville College. Along with his friends Sarah Knowby and Richard Getley, they have stolen Dr. Krauss research notes and learned about the existence of the Darkling, who they wish to summon and use for their nefarious goals.

Having his soul sucked out by the Darkling left him in a comatose state and completely insane, which let Dr. Krauss take him to power the astral prison he set up for the Darkling in What Lies Over the Cuckoo's Nest?.

## Cut Content

Originally during the events of Summoners Not Included, Bruce would have eventually gone against his group and stop them from performing the ritual once they would discover the ancient tome in the basement. He would then need to be scared away from the level in order to let Sarah and Richard perform the ritual themselves.

As a result of not participating in the ritual, Bruce Elm would have kept his soul intact. He would have however still appeared in The Blair Wisp Project, not in a comatose state as he does in a final version, but as a regular insane person after being stuck in the forest for too long.

A Comparison Between Bruce's Different Models
## Trivia

* Bruce Elm and Dr. Krauss are the only people who we can see "survive" having their soul sucked by the Darkling as everyone else just disappears.
* Bruce Elm is based on Ash Williams, a character played by Bruce Campbell in a 1981 horror movie *Evil Dead*.
	+ Bruce Elm breaks the usual mortal naming pattern, because the developers felt that 'Ash' in any context was too obviously an *Evil Dead* reference, so it was switched for another tree.
* The model of Bruce used in What Lies Over the Cuckoo's Nest? has differently colored hair compared to his regular model, being almost fully gray while his previous model had black hair with white spots on the sides of his head.
* Despite changing his model in What Lies Over the Cuckoo's Nest?, his icon remains the same.

## **Summary**

Miyu's mom arrives home in a panic. She figured that a fan had seen through her disguise, so she ran home. She's a very famous actress, but she still lives a low-key life with her daughter. Miyu thinks that the oridinary days she and her mom spend together are very important to her.

Just then, the doorbell rings. Miyu's mom sees that it's the person who was staring at her. However, when Miyu takes a look, she realizes that it's her homeroom teacher. She'd forgotten to tell her mom that she had a home visit that day, and on top of that, her teacher is a very big fan of her mom, so much so that Miyu doesn't think that she could keep the secret.

So, Miyu's mom has to put on a disguise. The teacher finds her clothes strange, but Miyu comes up with an excuse. Miyu's mom and teacher discuss Miyu's schoolwork over tea, with her mom managing to escape suspicion. Miyu's teacher even says that she feels at ease knowing that Miyu is able to live a calm life with a caring mom.

However, just as she's about to leave, the teacher asks to see Miyu's mom's face without the sunglasses on, as a part of protocol. Miyu fears the worst, but nothing peculiar happens after her mom takes off her sunglasses.

Miyu asks her mom how she was able to avoid suspicion, but when her mom turns around, she realizes that this person isn't her mother at all. Her actual mother appears from out of a side room, explaining that this person is her body double. She says that she would never want to endanger their peaceful life together, so she pulled out all her stops. Miyu feels reassured by her mom's dedication.

Before class, Chiharu demands to know what Rio and Yuki were talking about. Yuki makes up something, and Chiharu asks if she came up in the conversation. Yuki lies, saying that they talked about how hard Chiharu is training. Chiharu is excited by that, and Yuki notices how much she's "sparkling". She wonders if Rio knows this side of Chiharu and whether or not she'll fall for her. She hopes that Rio won't know, but also wishes that she never knew this side of herself.

In the library, Rio approaches Yuki after she sighs. She asks where Chiharu is, and Yuki says that she's training. Rio remarks how Chiharu will smile when she runs because struggling for air makes her feel alive. As she goes on, Yuki realizes how much Rio is sparkling.

Yuki bluntly asks if Rio likes Chiharu. Rio confesses that she does, but says that it's a secret. Yuki realizes that the two of them have grown closer without her noticing, and that their love shines bright. She will keep Rio's feelings a secret for now, and her own a secret forever.
