Summary

A set of comics released in two parts within special issues of Dengeki magazine titled 牧場物語 ほのぼのファンブック (TL: The Bokujou Monogatari Heartwarming Fanbook). The first part is within volume one, with the latter half residing in volume two. It is set up in 4koma (four panel) style for comedic value. The comics take place in Hidamari Village, a village that possesses magical properties and is quite in tune with nature. Leading the readers are the Magical Melody protagonists Adam and Amanda (named Tito and Tina in JP), who end up involved in wild scenarios with many familiar faces. New characters are shown that aren't in the games, but can be found within other Bokujou Monogatari supplemental comics (such as those in official guides).
