This English-original collection contains stories originally anthologized in Maruo's first three Japanese collections: Barairo no Kaibutsu (and its later 2006 edition), Yume no Q-Saku, and DDT. All stories first appeared in magazines between 1981-1983, except the one from the newer edition of Barairo no Kaibutsu, which first appeared in 2000. Most stories premiered in eromanga publications.
