"Hmm... I don't really remember Kinjo-kun, so it feels a bit strange to even talk about dating him."

"If you refuse, you might get knocked out and taken home." Masamune on the other end of the phone couldn't help but laugh.

"Please don't joke like that, I'm asking you very seriously."

"I'm sorry, but if you really can't make a decision, why not try going on a few dates to get to know each other better before deciding? Give yourself a chance, and give her a chance too. Or perhaps, you prefer Naru?"

“That makes sense.” Handa Kiyoshi put down his phone and asked hesitantly, “Let’s go on a few dates first. Maybe you’ll start to dislike me. Is that okay, Kinjo-kun?”

"I will never hate Handa-kun. Please take care of me from now on!" Miyoko Kinjo bowed very seriously.

Chapter 141 Everyone Wants to Join the Light Music Club

Hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Masamune, who was already prepared to call the police, quietly hung up.

Although I'm a little curious about what will happen to the two of them, no matter what, this isn't a bad thing for Handa.

As they pondered, a phone suddenly rang inside the game company "Flying Eagle Leap".

Turning his head, Masamune saw Hirasawa Yui frantically answering a phone call.

Because she pressed the speakerphone button, a noisy sound came from the other end of the phone, mixed with Azusa Nakano's cries for help.

"Senior Wei, help me!"

"What happened, Azusa?"

As Hirasawa Yui was speaking, Tainaka Ritsu and the other two curiously crowded around.

"Isn't today the first day of school at Sakuragaoka High School? I just posted the recruitment notice and a whole bunch of people came to apply to join the club."

"At first I was very happy, thinking that it would be lively with a lot of people, but one after another new students applied to join the department. In just a short while, about fifty people came, and there was a long line of people behind them."

"Why……!?"

Hearing Nakano Azusa's cries for help, Hirasawa and the other three looked at each other, unconsciously recalling the scene from last year.

At the time, the five of them recruited new members together, but no new students joined.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Akiyama Mio couldn't help but say.

"But there are too many people! Our club office simply can't accommodate everyone."

? ?

Akiyama Mio tried to imagine the scene: a small club room filled with chairs, with members crammed together one after another.

Thinking of this, she shook her head repeatedly.

While a large crowd can make things more lively, too many people can be a bit problematic.

"Azusa, don't worry, let's call Sawa and see if there's any good solution."

Upon hearing this, Ritsu Tainaka understood and took out his phone to call Sawako Yamanaka, quickly explaining the situation.

"...Sawako-sensei, we've already entered university, and we still have work to do today, so we can't come over to help right now. We'll leave Azusa-nyan in your care."

"No problem, I'll go talk to the principal right away and see if we can change the club room or make it harder to get in."

"Excuse me."

After hanging up the phone, Ritsu Tainaka noticed that Yui Hirasawa was still comforting Azusa Nakano on the other end. She smiled and remarked with emotion:

"Unexpectedly, after we graduated, the Light Music Club suddenly grew into a large club with hundreds of members."

"That's a good thing, it's more lively with more people."

Kotobuki Tsumugi smiled, took out her phone, and started contacting Saito Sumire.

"Xiao Jin, what's the situation with the light music club right now?"

"Sister, there's a whole bunch of girls surrounding Senior Azusne, and they're all very enthusiastic."

"how many people?"

"Well... I didn't count them exactly, but there were at least two or three hundred people."

"There's more than I expected, Sumire. What do you think of the Light Music Club?"

"Azusa-senpai is so cute. The place where she stayed, the scene exactly the same as in the anime, touched me a little. Yu-senpai is so kind... Sister, I love this light music club."

"Thank you for liking the Light Music Club."

After ending the call, noticing the curious looks from Akiyama Mio and the others, Kotobuki Tsumugi hesitated for a moment before explaining:

"Koyuki is Saito's daughter, and we grew up together. A few days ago, when I heard that she wanted to join the Sakuragaoka Academy Light Music Club, I was actually a little worried. I wondered if she was doing this because she was worried about me."

"Oh, I see. Don't worry, with Azusa and Yu around, she'll definitely like the Light Music Club," Hirasawa Yui said with a smile.

"Ah."

Kotobuki Tsumugi nodded slightly, snapping out of her reverie, and turned her gaze back to Masamune:

"President Hayase, I'm sorry, let's start over."

Although today is also the first day of university, unlike high school, university students have a lot of free time.

With nothing to do in the afternoon, a few people came to help improve the music for the CLANNAD game.

"Is everything alright on Nakano's side?" Masamune couldn't help but ask.

"With Ms. Sawako's help, there shouldn't be any major problems."

As they were talking, they noticed that Ryoufu Aoba had brought over a lot of tea. Kotobuki Tsumugi thanked her softly, then said:

"I'll contact Azumi again tonight. If it's still not resolved, I'll go over tomorrow and see if I can come up with a solution."

This is also an effect of the anime. Although it's not a bad thing, there are just too many people applying to join the club. Masamune can already imagine Nakano Azusa's expression right now.

However, in this situation, there are indeed only the two methods that Yamanaka Sawako mentioned earlier.

Either move to a larger club room, or add more classrooms to distribute the participants, or raise the admission threshold.

While pondering, Masamune became curious about the situation of the others.

Sakuragi Academy's student council doesn't recruit people casually. Although Amakusa Shino and Nanajo Tenku have already graduated, with Tsuda Takatoshi serving as the student council president, there shouldn't be too much of a problem.

What's the situation with Togashi, Hikigaya, and Arima?

With that in mind, Masamune tried dialing Hachiman Hikigaya's number.

"What's wrong, President Hayase?"

Have any new students applied to join your Service Department?

"Many new students came over just now, wanting to experience the club, but they were all scared away by Yukinoshita's cold gaze."

"I see, now I can visualize it."

"Are you asking this because... have other people encountered a surge of new students?"

"Hmm, the Light Music Club is overcrowded."

"That's normal. Just now, a few freshmen came up to us and asked if Soubu High School had a light music club. This is the case in unrelated schools in Chiba, not to mention the real light music clubs in Tokyo."

"That's true. These days, animation is having a growing impact."

"Yes, this is the current trend."

"As a result, we need to be more careful when making animations to avoid having a negative impact on the growth of minors."

"I'm not interested in such broad topics, so please don't discuss them with me."

"I didn't really discuss this topic with you; I was just making a casual remark. Since everything's alright on your end, I'll hang up now."

"Ah."

……

Inside the private Ginkgo Academy.

Just as Yuta Togashi had expected, before even enrolling in school, they had already become well-known celebrities.

Whether it was herself, Rikka, or Dansuke, they all became the focus of everyone's attention.

Wherever he went, people would gather around him, and some would even ask to take photos with him or sign the title pages of his light novels.

A few months ago, Yuta Togashi would have been thrilled and excited, but now he just felt incredibly embarrassed.

On the contrary, Rikka was completely unashamed, taking photos, signing autographs, and posing with people with ease.

"Ugh……"

On the roof of the teaching building, Yuta Togashi stood behind the safety net, sighing repeatedly.

If I had known earlier...

I've said this to myself hundreds of times today, but hindsight is always 20/20.

At this time, the cell phone ringtone suddenly rang.

After hesitating for a moment, Yuta Togashi tried pressing the answer button.

The next moment, an unfamiliar voice came from the phone:

"Hello, are you Yuta Togashi?"

"That's right, I am, I am Yuta Togashi, the Black Flame Master," Yuta Togashi said weakly.

My classmates kept asking me to pose all day, and I've almost made it my mantra because I've said it so many times.

"Hello, Togashi-kun, I am your voice actor, Karasuma Gojo."

"Why……?"

Voice actor?

The other party's self-introduction made Yuta Togashi's expression brighten.

Come to think of it, this is indeed the voice of the character in the animation.

"Oh, it's Mr. Karasuma. Your acting is superb; I couldn't tell you were embarrassed at all. But what brings you here?"

"I'd like to borrow your clothes from when you were going through a rebellious phase."

"Huh...? You... want to wear it?"
