Anime Crossover: My Online Romance is Megumi Kato

It seems that not only he forgot their agreement, but Hai Meng forgot as well. However, he was too busy to remember, while Hai Meng... must have been having too much fun.

Kitagawa Kaimu immediately shook her head, her peach-pink eyes meeting Kijima Yuta's gaze, and defended herself, "I...of course I remember, these sketches aren't even enough for me to warm up!"

"is it?"

Kijima Yuta gave her a strange look and said, "It's okay. You should finish these drawings first. I promise I won't let you have any free time later. And even if I can't do it anymore, I'll ask Eri for help."

"..."

Kitagawa Kaimu felt that she shouldn't have been so arrogant, or rather, she shouldn't have mentioned Kijima Yuta when she informed Megumi. Who knew that Megumi, who had never been involved in cosplay before, would actually agree.

As for Yuta Kijima, he wasn't really angry. The main reason was that he felt he could start the next phase of his plan, since the semester was about to end.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely go home during the holidays. Before that, he can take some time to finish the light novel and manga, and then hand over the rest to Haimeng when he gets home.

We can even call Shoko and the others over to help out.

After all, it's just a job as a comic artist's assistant, and anyone with patience can get the hang of it quickly.

"Alright, alright, I promise I won't treat you badly in the future."

Seeing that Kitagawa Kaimu almost turned into dust at the slightest touch, Kijima Yuta said, "After you gain more experience, I'll find you other helpers..."

"Really?" Kitagawa Kaimu's attention was drawn, but not to the reward: "Then will I become a senior in the manga industry!"

Kijima Yuta: "..."

Silent all night.

I drew back the curtains, and warm sunlight streamed into the room, setting the tone for another pleasant day.

Nothing unexpected happened last night, except that Hai Meng didn't enter her room until very late because she was excited about an event the next day.

After washing up, Yuta Kijima went to Panda's cat bed and added an appropriate amount of cat food to his bowl before slowly knocking on the guest room door.

"Hai Meng, wake up! You can't sleep in this morning!"

"Hmm..." A low murmur came from inside the room before silence returned.

Yuta Kijima knocked on the door again, feeling helpless.

"Hai Meng, if you keep sleeping, today's comic convention will be over."

"What! It's already this late?"

A commotion of rummaging through drawers and cabinets suddenly came from the room. After a while, Kitagawa Haimu, with dark circles under her eyes, finally opened the door.

"Yuta, you almost scared me to death." Kitagawa Kaimu was still a little dazed and sleepy as she spoke, yawning every now and then.

"Tell me, what time did you finally go to sleep last night?"

Yuta Kijima asked incredulously, "Is it really necessary to stay up all night for just a comic convention?"

Since Kitagawa Kaimu had already been woken up, she had no intention of going back to sleep. She waved her hand gently and said, "It's not that late... I was mainly chatting with everyone in the comments on X last night."

At this point, she became inexplicably excited: "You know what?! One of my favorite cosplayers actually left a comment last night!"

Yuta Kijima didn't know much about the cosplay community before, so he didn't understand why Haimeng was so excited. He just nodded calmly and then pushed her to wash up: "Okay, you should go wash up first. Hui and Haimeng will probably be here soon."

It has to be said that Hai Meng's choice to stay at his house was truly prescient. Not only could she sleep a little longer, but she also avoided the pain of dragging her suitcase on her way early in the morning.

Kitagawa Kaimu's excitement hadn't diminished at all. As she was pushed to the sink, she kept saying, "It's Lady Tama! Lady Tama really likes my cosplay!"

Yuta Kijima pushed her to the sink and walked out. "Pearl-sama? Is this the CN that Haimeng mentioned?"

He shook his head and went back to the kitchen to start preparing breakfast for this morning.

"what……"

After a while, the sound of the living room door opening came from inside. Kijima Yuta guessed that it must be Yukino Yukinoshita. He felt that his home was becoming less and less guarded towards them.

Yuta Kijima was intently watching the fried eggs in the pan when a calm, unassuming voice suddenly rang out behind him.

"Yuta."

Yuta Kijima looked back in surprise and saw that it was indeed Megumi Kato. "Megumi? You're here so early."

"I just ran into Yukinoshita-san who was coming to your house when I was at the door, so I didn't ring the doorbell."

Kato Megumi slowly walked into the kitchen and stood next to Kijima Yuta, speaking softly.

Chapter 244 The Comic Con is in Progress

"do you need my help?"

"No need, I'll have it ready soon." Kijima Yuta shook his head. It was just breakfast. "You can wait outside for a while... It would be best to give Kaimu a good scolding again."

"It's alright, I'll just bring you breakfast here," Kato Megumi said casually. She raised her delicate eyebrows slightly and looked at Kijima Yuta, asking, "Why? Don't you want to see me in a maid outfit, Yuta?"

"..."

Yuta Kijima wisely remained silent.

"It's okay. Anyway, I don't think wearing a maid outfit is anything strange. Actually, I find it quite strange that no class set up a maid cafe at this year's school festival," Kato Megumi said calmly.

It seems my awareness is not as high as Hui's.

……

After breakfast, Yuta Kijima picked up Kaimu Kitagawa's suitcase and said to the three of them who were already ready, "Let's go then."

"Yay!" Kitagawa Kaimu regained her usual enthusiasm, raising her hands in response to Kijima Yuta.

Kato Megumi remained as calm as ever, while Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her cherry lips and nodded, indicating that this event was quite a challenge for her.

Get on the tram.

Because it was the weekend, the tram wasn't very crowded. The group even saw some cosplayers on the tram, who were probably also going to an event.

The group sat down side by side. Kato Megumi and Kitagawa Kaimu sat on either side of Kijima Yuta, while Yukino Yukinoshita sat next to Kaimu.

"So all you cosplayers are seasonal warriors?" Looking at a fully armed cosplayer in the distance, dressed from head to toe, Yuta Kijima asked Kitagawa Haimu in a low voice.

Kitagawa Kaimu followed his gaze, chuckled, and shook her head, saying, "Yuta, you're making it sound like we're naturally good at cosplaying."

She lowered her voice to the middle of the group and continued, "Actually, this kind of event is not only about us wanting to showcase our hobbies, but it's also like a gathering for us enthusiasts."

"In reality, many cosplayers don't show their hobbies, mainly because there are very few like-minded people, and secondly because there are a lot of negative rumors surrounding this community. If friends find out, some unpleasant comments are bound to come out..."

"So even though everyone is very tired, they are still willing to participate in these kinds of activities. You can think of it as a gathering of like-minded people."

Yuta Kijima hadn't expected there to be so many twists and turns in this industry. He chuckled and said, "So, Haimeng, you've always been attending anime conventions by yourself?"

“Yes…” This is the first time Kitagawa Kaimu has come with so many friends today. “Although I’ve always been alone before, everyone I met at the anime convention was so welcoming, so I didn’t feel too bad.”

"But this is the first time I've ever come here with my friends like this, and I'm really happy!"

Kato Megumi and Yukino Yukinoshita were surprised to hear that Haimeng had put in so much effort in the cosplay community. Is this what it means to persevere in one's hobby?

Kato Megumi looked past Kijima Yuta at Kitagawa Kaimu and said softly, "It's okay... If Kaimu wants to participate in events like this again, I'll accompany you."

At this point, she seemed to remember something and paused, then added, "However, I can't accept those...daring cosplay outfits."

"Mei-chan!"

Kitagawa was overjoyed by Kato Megumi's words. If they weren't on a train, she probably would have rushed up and hugged Kato Megumi!

She's such a gem!

Yukino Yukinoshita's lips parted and closed, but she still didn't say anything like she would accompany Kato Megumi. In the end, she was still not used to this way of getting along.

As the tram swayed and rocked along, the group arrived at their destination.

As they walked off the tram platform, cosplayers gathered on the road at a visible speed, and seeing all kinds of cosplay really broadened Kijima Yuta's horizons.

He even saw the main character from Eri Kashiwagi's manga in it.

I wonder what Eriri's reaction will be if I can go up and take a picture with her and send it to her.

"Um... Haimeng, where are you and Hui changing your cosplay outfits later? Is this really the place for you to change?" After hesitating for a moment, Kijima Yuta asked the question that had been bothering him.

Seeing that the crowds on the street were all converging in the same direction, he was really unsure if it was safe to change into a cosplay outfit here.

“Oh, right…” Kato Megumi turned her head to look at Kitagawa Kaimu.

Kitagawa Kaimu laughed at the expressions on their faces and stepped forward to lead the way, saying, "Don't worry, I've already made preparations. I've reserved a room outside the event venue in advance. We'll just go there to change rooms later."

"Speaking of which, I used to come here a day early to prepare, and I would get up at five or six o'clock to start doing my makeup. Today was a relatively easy day for me."

Yuta Kijima can finally relax; the arrangements made by Haimeng in this regard are truly impeccable.

Kitagawa Kaimu waved to them, "Let's go, it's not far from here, just ahead."

She looked at Kato Megumi with a smile and said, "I will definitely dress Megumi-chan up as a very cute maid. Don't be too surprised, Yuta."

Yuta Kijima awkwardly began to look at the cosplayers passing by; this guy was even making fun of himself now.

But Hui has always been adorable.

Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Megumi Kato, who was standing calmly beside her, and compared herself to her. Although she didn't care much about these things, it was inevitable for girls to have such thoughts.

After carefully looking her over from top to bottom, Yukino Yukinoshita was surprised to find that the girl didn't seem particularly outstanding at first glance, but after looking at her a few more times, her unique qualities became quite apparent.

Kato Megumi said softly, "Actually, you don't need to worry about me too much, Haimeng. I just wanted to experience what cosplay is like this time..."

Yuta Kijima nodded quietly. What if it was too amazing? What if a bunch of people came looking for Huijiyou later? Should he be angry or not?

What a nuisance...

Chapter 245 Megumi's Maid Outfit

As a result, Yuta Kijima and Yukino Yukinoshita stayed outside the hotel waiting for Megumi and Yukino to change their clothes.

The two stood silently by the roadside for a while. Kijima Yuta looked at the vending machines outside the convenience store in the distance, then turned to Yukino Yukinoshita and said, "Let's go rest on one of those seats over there. Umi and the others will probably be gone for quite a while..."

"Hmm..." Fine beads of sweat had already appeared on Yukino Yukinoshita's fair forehead. Fortunately, Yuta Kijima made the suggestion, otherwise she would have been worried that she would have to stand like this forever.

Standing in front of the vending machine, Yuta Kijima turned to Yukino Yukinoshita and asked, "What would you like to drink, Yukinoshita-san?"

Orange juice will do.

So Yuta Kijima decisively bought two cans of orange juice and handed them to Yukino Yukinoshita.

The two sat down on a bench that was out of the sun.

After a brief silence, Yuta Kijima, admiring the cosplayers hurrying along the road, broke the silence by asking, "Yukinoshita-san, how are your club activities at school going?"
