>!Taken and translated from the flashback that’s part of the current ongoing story event. When the MC says that her design creeps him out, Izanami says the above line about the origins of her design and prototype. And also, this is confirmed through the entire flashback to be a branch of the Unlimited timeline.!<

>!And later, they mention the BETA. Not just make offhanded references to, for the first time in story they actually mention them by name. They completely reveal what the garden is, and dispel any and all of the random little rumors floating around about BETA girls and trying to breed the MC.!<

It’s downscaled for Reddit of course, but it should still be usable for the intended purpose.

Both books primarily promote Kimi ga Nozomu Eien while also advertising its sister work, Muv-Luv. âge Official Book 01 was published April 28, 2001. Book 1.5 followed on August 3, 2001, the same day Kimi ga Nozomu Eien was released.

There's the cover, the two original pages, and the reconstructed logo

Angel Marimo (before alcohol) and Devil Yuuko

One of the postcards that came with my most recent haul. Text on the side reads “Wishing you well in the summer heat”

Lilia, Will, and Daryl from TDA 00. The artist is Azusa Maxima

This comes from a 2025 JP promotional packet for Kimi ga Nozomu Eien ~Enhanced Edition~, shown here is the manila folder (complete with Ayu’s catchphrase), the faux acceptance letter, the cover to the inner information about the game, the envelope with the bromides, and the three bromides which are in-game arts of Mitsuki and Haruka.

From the 11/2001 Colorful PureGirl magazine

Where did the name “Muv-Luv” come from?

Yoshida:
It was just something that came up during a title brainstorming meeting (laughs). We had all sorts of weird ones flying around—“Rainbow on the Sprinkled Water,” “Sadness Lies Beyond the Clouds,” “The World Below Shoku,” that kind of thing. There was even a suggestion to just go super straightforward and call it something like “âge Academy.”
We were all standing around a whiteboard, throwing titles out in front of everyone.

“So which one are we going with!? Whatever it is, it has to stand out. It has to leave an impression!”
Then, completely off the cuff, I said,

“For example… ‘True Love’—Muv-Luv…”
and just scribbled 「マブラヴ」 across the whiteboard.

Miya the Carpenter:
Everyone just went, “Ehhh!?”** *****(laughs)***

Yoshida:
We left it written on the whiteboard for about two days.
After that, Baka Ōji Persia started saying,
“You know… ‘Muv-Luv’ might actually be pretty good.”
Then Spindrill chimed in with,
“To be honest, I thought it was good from the very beginning!” in that typical smooth-talking way of his. (laughs)

Interviewer:
(laughs) Regardless of how it was decided, “Muv-Luv” is certainly a catchy title.

Yoshida:
I’m praising myself a little here, but I’m really glad we chose that name.

Once you’ve reached the end of the story and look back at the title, I honestly don’t think any other name could fit.
Because this game is about true love (真剣恋愛). (laughs)
I also really like that the title and logo have a feel that’s unlike anything âge had done before.

While doing some scans, I happened to come across this interesting bit along with a bit from Bou himself. Even before she was dubbed the "Green Devil" by fans, Homura Manami was already infamous!

Sakaki Chizuru

She's a class representative who excels both academically and in sports, serving as the captain of the lacrosse team that's on the verge of disbanding. Trusted by teachers and classmates alike, she carries herself as serious and dependable... but what lies beneath that composed exterior? She's a character that fans of girls with glasses just can't ignore!

Comment from Bou

The scythe-shaped bangs and tentacle-like braids both highlight her aggressive nature. Originally, she had green hair, but since she looked like she'd imprison and discipline the protagonist, I changed it to brown instead.

I’ve uploaded some of these in smaller images before, these are easier to see

What does Girls Garden have to do with Muv-Luv? Well, here’s three words.

And here we have two of the four Disciplinary Committee members!

Lilly Lavoie
School: LOC (Liberty Online Campus)
Team: Student Council (Disciplinary Committee)
Hometown: Liberty
Birthday: July 24
Height: 160 cm
Hobby: Watching hero shows • Collecting merchandise
Likes: Gadgets

Originally a shy, withdrawn girl, that changed when Lilly became fascinated with the series Super Machine God Justion. Inspired by its heroes, she transformed into the cheerful, justice-driven person she is today.
Heroism runs in the family, and whenever she finds someone who shares her passion for heroes, she simply can’t stop talking.

Xiaohua Jiang
School: Scalar
Team: Student Council (Disciplinary Committee)
Hometown: Scalar
Birthday: March 20
Height: 157 cm
Hobby: Calisthenics
Likes: Books

Born into the prestigious Hualian community of the Scalar District, Xiaohua comes from a distinguished family with connections in many circles, though the full extent of her influence remains unknown.
She reveres the Student Council President Kagura Shioten and won’t hesitate to push herself to the fullest for her. Although she tries to hide it, she’s not very good at dealing with spicy food—a fact that’s become common knowledge.

Julia Barnes
School: Scalar Academy
Team: Chaos Maiden
Hometown: Scalar
Birthday: February 22
Height: 163 cm
Hobby: Sunbathing
Likes: Oddly designed trinkets and animals

Leader of Chaos Maiden. A gifted pilot blessed with natural talent and instincts, though her personality is another story entirely.
She has an infectious, charismatic energy, but beneath it lies a surprisingly childish side.
Rumor has it there’s a secret behind her origins…

Liu Cuilan
School: Scalar Academy
Team: Chaos Maiden
Hometown: Scalar
Birthday: June 20
Height: 155 cm
Hobby: Collecting tea leaves and teaware
Likes: Clean places

Born into the influential Hualian community in the Scalar District, Liu Cuilan is the daughter of a prominent merchant family.
Though she comes across as strict and somewhat distant because she knows the world of business, she’s genuinely kind and always willing to look after others.
She hopes to avoid being tied to the family business and instead dreams of finding a stable position at a respected company in the future.

Explorer
Classification: Maze Guarder
Overall Height: 18.3 m
Affiliation (Manufacturer): Scalar

Designed with low production costs as the highest priority, the Explorer is a Maze Guarder built for versatility. Because the environments within the Maze vary so widely, existing MGs often proved unsuitable for unexplored regions. Instead of producing expensive specialized machines for every environment, the Explorer was conceived as a modular platform that could be quickly adapted through cost-effective modifications. Its true strength lies in that flexibility. Rather than treating new environments as simple upgrades to an existing machine, the Explorer was designed from the outset to accommodate more extensive configuration changes.
Though compact, its distinctive design gives it a strong presence, and it never comes across as a “cheap” machine.
