List of chapters in Akko-chan's Got a Secret!

*Note: Due to loss of manuscripts or otherwise prioritizing earlier reprints as a source, what is is seen in the eBookJapan edition may not always be the complete originals as seen in each Ribon issue. It would appear that some chapters are composites made up of copies of the originals merged with panels and pages from kashihon or other reprints.*

*In some cases, this extends to having a copy of the mirror or Kankichi's original head pasted back on over the previously-modified artwork, where the original art could not be used as-is. However, in some instances as with "Detective Akko-chan", some panels and pages from the Mushi Pro edition (such as her compact) may remain by accident without any edits done to revert them back to the original appearance.*

## Original Ribon run

### 1962

1. **"The First Errand from the Mirror Country"** (かがみの国のおつかい, June)- Debuts of Akko, Mama, The Man from the Mirror Country, and cameos of Moko and Chikako (the latter being an imported character from Ohana-chan). A re-arranged and colored version of this chapter was crafted for the Kinran kashihon, and a redrawn version (to give Akko her headband and update her face) was introduced with the Mushi Pro reprints and carried over to the Akebono "Complete Works" release. The Mushi version can be seen in the 2002 DVD-ROM digitization of the Akebono volumes, and the Kinran version could most recently be seen in the Kawade Shobo release. However, eBookJapan utilized the original Ribon printing for the first time since its publication.
2. **"Moriyama-sensei and Sato-sensei"** (森山先生と佐藤先生, July)- Debuts of Sato, Moriyama, and Moko's mother. Moko's full name is given as "Tomoko Ina". Also referred to as **"An Event on Test Day**" (テストの朝のできごと) in some editions, including Kawade.
3. **"A Stray Dog and House-sitting"** (のら犬とおるすばん, August)-
4. **"A Ghost and a Ring"** (よう精とゆびわ, August summer vacation issue)- Debut of Moko's younger brother Kankichi, as well as Sato's mother. The travel-to-country premise of this chapter and some panel arrangements are slightly recycled later in the series.

A multi-part story in the same magazine, sometimes counted as two due to its named parts; the other part is titled **"Mimiko-chan is Gone"** (いなくなったミミ子ちゃん). As mentioned in the disclaimer, the eBook edition can be seen to still retain the final modified page from print editions such as Mushi and Akebono.
8. **"Christmas with Friends"** (クリスマスの仲なおり, December)- Original colored frontispiece not restored for reprints. A multi-part story sometimes with its parts counted as entirely separate chapters, such as in the Kawade reprint: **"Merry Christmas"** (メリークリスマス), **"With Friends"** (なかなおり), and **"Good Evening to Santa"** (こんばんはサンタだよ).

## Ribon relaunch

*Many redrawn or minimally revised versions of chapters are not carried over to reprints due to redundancy with the originals existing, or the Mushi Pro tankobon versions with their own alterations were already reprinted instead. In the Kawade Shobo and eBookJapan releases, only the first chapter and those for September, November, and December 1969 are reprinted due to being the only all-new stories.*

### 1968

1. **"Mysterious Compact"** (ふしぎなコンパクト, November)- New origin story for Akko to start off the new run and showcase the new mirror compact. Taisho and Shosho are introduced, along with redesigns for other characters such as Moko and Kankichi. Reprinted for the first time in the Shogakukan Pika Pika Comics edition and given a new painted watercolor look; this colored version is included at the end of the following Kawade Shobo and eBookJapan editions.
2. **"Moriyama-sensei and Sato-sensei"** (森山先生と佐藤先生, December)- A redraw of the original second chapter with continued redesigns for Moko and Kankichi, as well as new designs for their mother, Moriyama, and Sato. Other changes include Moko's name now being "Motoko Naniwa" to tie in with the anime, and the presence of Taisho. The frontispiece is altered in reprints, changing from showing Akko, Moko, and Kankichi, to instead using the frontispiece for the following chapter.

### 1969

1. "**An Angel is a Liar"** (天使はうそつき, January)- A redraw of the original chapter, with Taisho and Shosho added into scenes of the plot. In the reprints, a cropped version of the frontispiece from the December issue is put in the title place instead.
2. **"Selfishness and Fine Clothes"** (晴れ着とわがまま, February)- Revision of the original chapter, with redrawn panels.
3. **"A 0-Point Test Score Desperation Party"** (テスト0点ヤケクソパーティー, March)- Revision of "A Doll Festival With Only 0 Points", with some minor edits in some places and more major changes in others (such as adding in Taisho and Goma). Moko is shown to keep her black eyes in this story, as opposed to having the newer styled ones of her initial redesign.
4. **"Anmitsu-chan of the Sweet Shop"** (甘いお店のアンミツちゃん, April)- Revision and redraw of the original chapter, with the usual changes like Kankichi's face/head replaced and Akko having her compact.

7. **"Three Rounds of Cowardice from Sato-sensei"** (こしぬけ三回サトウ先生, July)- Slight revision of the original chapter, with Kankichi's face/head altered and Akko having her compact instead of the full mirror.
8. **"Kankichi and his Blue-Eyed Friend**" (カン吉と青い目のお友だち, August)- Revision and redraw of the original chapter, with Kankichi's face/head changed, Akko given her compact, and the Police Officer with the Connected Eyes replacing the original cop.
9. **"Akko and Moko's Boyfriend"** (アッコとモコのボーイフレンド, September)- Introduction of Akko's cousin Sankichi. Though it has an identical title to the first run chapter, it is not a remake (although an edited version of that chapter was produced for the Mushi Pro reprint, to have Kankichi's face changed and Akko's mirror changed to the compact).
10. **"Martian? Moko-chan"** (火星人? モコちゃん, October)- Entire redraw and updating of the original chapter. This is not reprinted in the "Complete Works", with the Mushi Pro edit put there instead.
11. **"Kankichi's Savings and Present"** (カン吉の貯金とプレゼント, November)- The Police Officer with Connected Eyes guest stars as your standard cop.
