◆A sneak peek of the main story! “It’s a gas shop!!” Episode 7 synopsis
It has been three months since Kase Kiyu, a new graduate of the company, joined the gas shop, and Kiyu has become accustomed to the daily work and has been busy all the time.



In addition, Kiyu will be tasked with planning a new project for the ``Gas Exhibition,'' a large-scale gas shop event to be held in the fall.



At the height of his busy schedule, Kiyu remembers his roots. When Kiyu started job hunting, she was worried about her future. Where will I work? Why do I work?



At that time, I happened to pass by ``Hoshimi Seikatsu Facilities'' on my way home from a joint briefing session.



Believing that this was a memorable encounter, Kiyu decided to investigate.



I soon decided to visit the company for a tour. Kiyu and the gas store, and the encounter with Arika and the company president.



And intense encounters await us even in modern times. The environment surrounding Kiyu's 'work' will change further from here...!

◆Member-only materials: “Pull” is required for the last scene
Episode 7 of “Gas Shop!!” is mainly about flashbacks from the past, and reveals why Kiyu got a job at a gas shop called Hoshimi Seikatsu and the deep personality of Kiyu, who is bright and serious. It has been.

The final page of the initial idea for the name of Episode 7 looked like this: The ending is somewhat somber as you think back to your roots and reconsider where you are now. This was also a good atmosphere, but I felt that it wasn't as fun to read.



Therefore, the final manuscript has been changed as follows. Rather than a calming twist, it is a form that shows the new characters that will appear in the next development.



This character will make a full-fledged appearance in the next episode, episode 8. She is the only daughter of a local gas dealer, and is one year older than Kiyu. As Kiyu's rival in the same generation, he stands in the way of planning the ``Gas Exhibition''.



By showing the new character Mitsuki, who will make a big change towards the climax of the story, in the ``pull'' of episode 7, the intention is to give a sense that the story will move significantly from here after taking a run-up with past flashbacks. It has become. Episode 8, in which Mitsuki appears, is scheduled to be updated around mid-November 2023, so we hope you can look forward to it.



We have also provided some of the making-of information, from the name to what changes were made after repeated meetings, in the making-of commentary article .
