What kind of story is 'Master smells like garlic!'?
A beautiful woman with beautiful mint green hair and fiery eyes, Mint Floral is a vampire. As a vampire, Mint possesses the highest abilities among demons and is said to live eternal life by sucking human blood, but he is not good at 'garlic'.
Garlic-loving maid Kaori, who takes care of Mint, proposes 'a garlic dish that even vampires can eat' so that Mint can overcome its weakness.
The first item that Mint tried was “fried garlic”, which is fried in oil without cutting garlic. It seems that if you heat it without cutting it, the smell of garlic will weaken. If this is the case, even vampires who have a keen sense of smell and are overwhelmed by the smell of garlic can eat it deliciously.
When I actually ate it, the mint lost its power and became smaller due to the taste of the garlic dish. From this day onwards, Mint begins to fight with garlic gourmets to regain her strength, or Kaori, who wants to see Mint transform into a cute figure, begins to seduce her with garlic dishes.
Garlic gourmet tasted by mint will appear in the comics with a total of 8 items + 1 extra item, such as ahijo and peperoncino using garlic flavored oil, beef bowl topped with garlic, and rich mixed soba. Full-color, high-quality drawings, and mint's meal scene will make you think, 'It looks delicious.'
Also, if you succumb to the temptation of garlic gourmet and eat the mint after it has shrunk, the power of the weakened vampire will go out of control and transform into various forms. Also pay attention to Mint's transformation scene, which is funny and too cute.

The cover that opened the comic looks like the following. In addition to mint looking at garlic, the sub-characters that appear are gathered as mini-characters.
The table of contents of the comic shows the theme of garlic gourmet, so you can read from the menu that interests you.
Also, when you open the table of contents in the Kindle app, you can jump to each episode or bonus page.
The main page looks like the following. Depending on the type and settings of the terminal, it is also possible to read on a large spread screen.
The comic includes all 7 episodes of the serialized version, as well as 'Garlic Love Maid's Holiday' drawn for comics. Kaori, a relative of Mint, is basically always Mint's caretaker, although she sometimes goes out of control in the main story. However, the bright hours when Mint, a night-owl vampire, is asleep, is a holiday for Kaori. How is Kaori spending her time? It's a bonus manga, so check it out.
As a comic privilege, character making with commentary is also included. The process and ingenuity up to the design of the main characters Mint and Kaori, as well as the character design charts for the sub characters, are all posted, so not only can you learn more about the work, but you can also ask 'How do you think about character design?' Do you know the know-how?
In addition, illustrations and rough collections are also included at the end of the book. We have collected all the things that were drawn during the serialization, such as illustrations that are not in the main story and rough drafts that have not been adopted, so be sure to check them out.
Comic cover making
As a draft of the cover, 5 roughs were created. Plan A is Kaori the maid and Mint the vampire lined up back to back.
Plan B also has Kaori and Mint lined up back to back, but the two are sitting on a big garlic, and there are lots of garlic in the background.
Plan C is a rough draft that gathers the sub-characters that appear with Mint as the main character in the form of cute mini-characters. This proposal was adopted because 'the feeling that it seems to be fun is overwhelmingly high'.
Rough draft D that makes it easy to understand the color of the work, Kaori chasing mint with garlic-filled ramen.
Mint's stance and the position of some of the mini characters were adjusted when the draft was finalized.
Line art for the cover illustration. The pink color in the image below is the part that will be cut off in the actual comic size. Considering the case where you want to move the mini character and place it in the comic table of contents design, etc., I also ask you to draw the parts that would be trimmed.
The whole of the completed cover illustration looks like the following. Amazon product pages use full, uncropped illustrations.
