First, the "author" is not Fujishima Kousyke, but Karasu
Yasatoshi, a mangaka having some of his work serialized
in Comic Afternoon

Apparently sharing the same editor with Fujishima
Kousuke, as he is the chairman of the "Club of the
Victims of T-da", with Fujishima Kousuke as the vice-
chairman.  For those who do not know, Koudansha's
editors are always nicknamed using their surname,
changing the first kanji to a single English alphabet.
For example, for editor Yoshida, his nickname would be
Y-da.

It's just one of the feature to celebrate the 20th anniversary
of the series.  Very useful for us to locate the name of these
minor characters.

Hild got ambushed, frozen, and locked up by Hagaru, but her
1/1000 split is still out there.

Meanwhile in Whirlpool, Chihiro and Megumi were striping K1
to celebrate his birthday, when Bell-chan bumped in, wanting
to give K1 his present, a very nice watch used in the NASA
Mercury project.

Bell-chan said that the watch will accompany K1 to walk
through his life, and K1 immediately asked if Bell-chan
will do the same.  Just when Bell-chan is replying, the
1/1000 Hild crash landed in Whirlpool.
