Summary
As a continuation of Rozen Maiden, the story starts with an older Jun, who is now a university student. While working at a bookstore as his part time job, he finds an unaddressed copy of the first issue of a weekly magazine “How to Make a Girl” containing a spring. He brings it home, and soon starts receiving further issues of the magazine by post, each issue having one part of a doll’s body as a gift. One day, after putting much effort into assembling the fifth Rozen Maiden doll Shinku, he receives a notification that the publication has been cancelled, leaving him with an incomplete doll. Suddenly, he receives a mysterious text message from his old number, claiming to be the Jun Sakurada asking for help against the seventh Rozen Maiden doll Kirakisho… Note: The official title of this Shueisha edition in Japanese is ローゼンメイデン in katakana, in order to set it apart from the title of the “original” Gentosha edition, which was “Rozen Maiden” in Latin letters while katakana only served as a pronunciation aid (furigana).
