GARNET CROW (vol.22)
word scope in m.f.Es

Hello, everyone. This is Yurippe, who failed to take a summer vacation (laughs).
Autumn, the season of harvest, has arrived again this year.
The food is delicious, the breeze outside feels wonderful,
and now that the weather is comfortable, it is a season that makes you want to try all sorts of things.
Isn't it the best season for settling down and devoting yourself to something?

GARNET CROW will be releasing our new album, *Memories*!
Autumn means garnets, and garnets mean autumn.
It is an album made to be listened to carefully on long autumn nights.
With a wide variety of songs, from ballads to upbeat numbers,
I think you will have a lot of fun listening to it.

At the end of the year, we have our annual countdown live to look forward to.
This is the once-a-year GARNET festival!!
We are planning to perform songs from the album as well,
so please come and join us at the live show.
Now, let us make this another fruitful autumn!!

GARNET CROW (vol.23)
word scope in m.f.Es

This is AZUKI Nana. It has gotten completely cold, hasn't it?
I am determined that this winter I will not catch a cold!
Lately, even in summer the air-conditioning dries everything out, and then when I go outside I am hit by intense heat;
once winter begins, the coughing that refuses to stop makes me miserable.
I heard that honey is medically proven to be more effective than □ cough medicine,
so I tried various things...
When I looked into it, honey is incredible. There are all kinds of varieties, and all kinds of effects.
For coughs, □ honey; for H. pylori and stomach ulcers, manuka honey.
Apparently it can even kill *Streptococcus mutans*. Really!?
That was what I thought, but apparently the □ part is what you eat.
So should I eat □ before bed!? Exactly,
I ended up buying lots of different kinds.
It is a mystery how such miraculous honey is made in the first place...
Until recently, people said that honey that did not crystallize white was impure.
It did seem that inexpensive honey tended not to crystallize,
so I had been rushing to buy only the more expensive-looking kinds.
Then the other day, someone at a nearby shop told me, “According to a theory people have been talking about lately, pure honey apparently does not crystallize.”
What do you mean, a “theory”! It still has not been properly explained! Honey, that is.
Then what about the claim that it kills all kinds of bacteria—how much of that is really true!?
And apparently enzymes in bees' saliva (invertase, or sucrase) get mixed into nectar and turn it into honey...
What? So it is not just flower nectar after all?
Then has bees' saliva itself been fully explained?!
There are so many mysteries, it is all far beyond me.
So these days I am licking different kinds of honey and conducting experiments on myself.
Well, whether it works or not... it is subjective, just my personal impression.
For now, the cough still will not stop. It tastes good, so I do not care about the effects anymore.
See you.
