i like the first story, but its annoying that he keeps mentioning the mishap.

Typical sign of a magazine publication~ The publisher assumes you haven't read the story or anything related to it for a month, so there's usually a recap or the repetition of the last scene of a previous chapter. Usually, the recaps are omitted or replaced in tanko releases; buuut, sometimes the artist can't be bothered and some very interesting continuity issues can crop up--The enthusiastic recap certainly prevents that here ^^;
