Another collection of short stories that fill in some information from gaps between books and prior to the series starting. A bit better than the last one of these, and at least more humorous, but still can't give me more than 4 stars

Weird timing in the series to have a prequel. Overall, not a bad story line. It was interesting to hear Emi's side of the story of when she first arrived in Japan.

More short stories, but with one really good one!

Of the five stories in this volume (some that feel like "bonus scenes" cut from previous volumes, the last 2 are my stand-out favorites, worth the price of admission! The fourth story delves into Ms. Kisaki's history and how she became the type of MgRonald's manager she is today, including a brief glimpse at her future plans.

The last (and longest) story is probably the one most fans have been wanting to read, and that is what were Emilia's first days in Tokyo were like after she chased Satan and Alciel through the gate! Slight spoiler: her experience is quite different than the Devil's experience.

A must read for "Part-Timer!" fans!

Boring short stories. Meh.

Some short stories detailing what happened between books and how some relationships and situations came to be. Overall, enjoyable to read.

A bit of a wierd timing for a collection of short stories, but it was about time we got the tale of Emi when she got to Japan, so I'll take it.

At first, I was confused due to this book being composed of out of chronology short stories, with the first few being filler. After volume 13, which was basically about reorganizing the entire narrative, this doesn't make a lot of sense. Even Emi's first days in Japan are not that interesting. The book is as skippable as volume 7, to be honest.
