This diary comic details the complexities of Nagata Kabi’s fraught relationship with food, from eating disorders and habits to food preparation, with unflinching and detailed honesty. This short manga (originally 50 pages long) was written after My Wandering Warrior Existence and was only released on digital platforms in Japan. Seven Seas initially published the manga in English as an ebook exclusive before the release of the book written after it – My Pancreas Broke, But My Life Got Better– in order to preserve the chronological timeline of new entries in Nagata Kabi’s powerful autobiographical series. Now, the anticipated release of the printed edition is here!

After 18 months, I decided to start living alone again, and with the determination "I'm gonna try hard to cook for myself!” a girl appeared before me. Her true identity was, believe it or not, a “former doodle”! I named her “Anko,” and we ate butter rice with seaweed late at night, had picnics in my room, and gorged ourselves on oden with lots of ingredients... If only every day could be like this forever.
