Anime Crossover: There are a lot of beautiful girls who like me.

If there were only one Himegami Karen, she definitely wouldn't want Hakamada Sosuke to successfully form the light music club.

But Hakamada Sosuke, this 'three-timing' enthusiast, somehow got involved with Shirakawa Tsukiai.

At this point, she should have supported Hakamada Sosuke in forming the light music club.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to get involved at all in the relationship between Hakamada Sosuke and Shirakawa Tsuki.

Thinking of this, although Anzu felt a little annoyed, she still glanced at the teacher on the podium, then secretly took out her phone and sent a message to Sosuke Hakamada.

"Kusuke, what's wrong? Did you run into trouble when submitting the application for the Ministry of Construction?"

The vibration from his cell phone in his pocket snapped Hakamada Sosuke out of his aimless reverie.

Without much thought, he told Anna Yanami everything that had happened in the student council.

"What? The review is tomorrow!? Shikiya-senpai really hates Kusuke!"

Anzu first muttered something to herself, then couldn't help but think to herself, "With that delinquent high school student look of Kusuke, always staring at girls' fierce faces with that lewd look, it's more normal for Himegami and Shikiya-senpai to react like that! What kind of taste does Shirakawa-senpai have that she would fall for Kusuke? Is it really a case of a gyaru (gal) paired with a delinquent?"

Of course, after complaining, she also started thinking about countermeasures, and then... just like Hakamada Sosuke, she became frowning.

There's no way around it; if the review is done tomorrow, they really don't have enough time.

Even if Kitagawa Yu is really good, he simply can't carry those three newbies!

unless......

"Why don't we appoint Kitagawa as the department head? Let's submit the application!"

When Hakamada Sosuke saw the message from Hanami Anna, not only his brows furrowed, but even the corners of his mouth couldn't help but fall down.

But before he could type a reply, Bana saw Anzu continue:

"It seems like Shikiya-senpai really likes Kitagawa-kun. If Kitagawa-kun were the club president and submitted the application, she probably wouldn't be targeted like this!"

After reading it, Hakamada Sosuke couldn't help but feel conflicted again.

If what Anna Hachimi said is true, and Yumeko Shikiya really likes Yu Kitagawa, and given that Yu Kitagawa is also very capable, Yumeko Shikiya might actually allow them to wait until next week for the review.

But the problem is...

He's already 'become' the minister, so wouldn't it be too embarrassing to replace him with Kitagawa Yu now?

As a high school student, he values ​​his reputation and dignity very much!

However, if he fails to form a light music club due to Shikiya Yumeko's targeting, he will not only lose the opportunity to get close to Himegami Karen, but even Shirakawa Tsukiai, whom he just met, may leave him.

The thought that this outcome is very likely to happen...

"Oh well!"

After agonizing over the entire class period, Hakamada Sosuke finally gave in when the bell rang.

"Anyway, Kitagawa and I have already reached an agreement. I suppose even if Himegami objects, Kitagawa will agree to let me join the club for Anna's sake, right?"

Hakamada Sosuke secretly prayed.

Chapter 59 A Flash of Inspiration?

"What? The first club activity is tomorrow at noon, and we have to pass the student council's on-site review?"

"this......"

"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about it."

During the break, Hakamada Sosuke called Kitagawa Yu to the corridor and told him about what happened at the student council meeting that morning.

Because he still didn't want to lose his position as minister, he didn't immediately reveal the solution he and Anna had just come up with. Instead, he asked Yu Kitagawa if there was a way to get the student council approved directly the next day.

Unfortunately, Kitagawa Yu is not a god; how could he possibly meet the student council's review requirements in just one day?

Putting everything else aside, just getting the drum set and bass together and moving them over would take time, okay? Besides, he has to go to school during the day and then to extracurricular classes after school, so where would he find the time?

"That's all we can do..."

Hakamada Sosuke sighed and suggested that Kitagawa Yuu take over as the head of the light music club. He then went to Shikiya Yumeko to plead for a postponement of the on-site audition to next week.

"If you have a weekend to prepare, that should be fine, right?"

"..."

Kitagawa Yu felt that Hakamada Sosuke was being a bit too presumptuous.

A single weekend is enough for one pro to carry three idiots and put on a show that's enough to fool the student council? That's no easier than having Karen Himegami play "My Goal is to Be a Pokémon Master" at church!

And doesn't he have anything to do on weekends?

Of course, it wouldn't be good to just say he didn't have time, after all... he wanted to go on a date with Anna Hanami this weekend.

so......

"I'll give it a try, but I feel that Shikiya-senpai probably won't change her mind just because I plead with her." Kitagawa Yu thought for a moment and then agreed.

"It's okay, if it still doesn't work... then we can wait until next month!" Hakamada Sosuke forced a smile.

But the worry in my heart did not lessen in the slightest.

After all, waiting another month means enduring another month of the agony of not being able to be 'with' Himegami Karen and Shirakawa Tsuki Ai!!

The time soon came to noon.

Kitagawa Yu, Yanami Anna, and Himemiya Karen, as always, took their bento boxes to the piano club.

Even though Shikiya Yumeko usually walks as slowly as a zombie, she arrived at the activity room earlier than the others, just like always.

Don't know how she did it.

However, Kitagawa Yu's concerns were valid; Shikiya Yumeko may look like a zombie, but she is actually quite intelligent.

And she's quite intelligent.

Even though Hakamada Sosuke had withdrawn the original application form and filled out a new one with Kitagawa Yu as the club president and applicant, Shikiya Yumeko still saw through it at a glance; forming the light music club was still his idea and thought.

So when Kitagawa Yu pulled her aside and whispered his pleas, Shikiya Yumeko shook her head and refused without a second thought.

"If...it really is...Yu-chan...wanting to form...a light music club...that's fine...but if it's...someone who wants to use...forming a light music club to pick up girls...no way..."

Although Shikiya Yumeko's voice still sounded weak and listless, her attitude was very direct and resolute.

This made Kitagawa Yu smile bitterly to himself.

Having already found his perfect partner, Tsukimi Eiko, if he still wanted to form a light music club, then his only remaining goal would be to pick up girls.

"How about it?"

When Anzu saw him return, she tugged at his sleeve and asked in a low voice.

Kitagawa Yu looked at her nervous and anxious expression, and although he kept a straight face, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

"This guy still cares so much about Hakamada Sosuke... But then again, he's been secretly in love with his childhood friend for twelve years..."

Kitagawa Yu sighed inwardly, then shrugged and whispered, "Just as I guessed, Shikiya-senpai refused outright."

"What should I do?"

Bana asked Anza instinctively.

Of course, she didn't expect Kitagawa Yu to give an answer, so after she finished speaking, she lowered her head, ate the rice ball in her hand, and racked her brains to think.

Unfortunately, even a professional like Kitagawa Yu couldn't come up with a solution, so what could she possibly do?

"Yu, try it! I made this tamagoyaki myself today!"

The oblivious Himegami Karen didn't notice Kitagawa Yu and Banami Anna's earlier little actions. With a sweet smile on her lips, she picked up a piece of tamagoyaki she had made herself and fed it to Kitagawa Yu, looking at him expectantly.

After receiving Kitagawa Yu's "sincere" evaluation, he immediately beamed with joy and felt a surge of happiness.

At that moment, perhaps it was because Himegami Karen's smile was just too sweet and too radiant.

While still racking her brains for a solution, Anna was subconsciously drawn to her, her gaze lingering on her face in a daze. Then, after what seemed like an eternity, a sudden flash of inspiration struck her.

"Oh right! Didn't Kitagawa say he could also play the guitar?"

"If we let the cow... no, I mean Himegami-san play the piano and Kitagawa-san play the guitar, then Kusuke and I can just sing, right?"

"Would a performance like this pass censorship?"

Having finally come up with a solution, Anzu Hachimi felt as if the wooden floor beneath her had turned into a scorching hot grill plate, and she immediately couldn't sit still anymore.

However, considering that Shikiya Yumeko was right next to her, she knew that if she spoke out directly, she would likely be targeted by Shikiya Yumeko again, so she forced herself to hold back.

Then, he made an excuse to buy a drink, and only after leaving the activity room did he send a message to tell Kitagawa Yu about his plan.

"...Do you think this will work?"

As Kitagawa Yu ate his sandwich, he looked at the message from Hanami Ana and fell silent.

"Are you really that keen on helping Hakamada form a light music club?"

"Of course!"

Without a second thought, Anna replied.

If she doesn't form a light music club, how can she stop Hakamada Sosuke and Shirakawa Tsuki from getting together?

Upon receiving the reply, Kitagawa Yu felt as if he were shrouded in an invisible dark cloud, and a sense of disappointment welled up in his heart.

However, after taking a deep breath, he quickly rallied and began to consider the feasibility of the plan.

Then he had to admit that, as long as the song chosen was simple enough, the method that Anna Hanami came up with did have a high probability of success.

At least, this line of thinking is correct.

"We could try having Hakamada prepare a guitar or bass."

"And what about me? Am I in charge of singing?"

"Hehe...you should stick to playing the drums~"

Standing in front of the vending machine, Banami, who had just been delighted that her method had been affirmed, froze on Anzu's face. Then, a big question mark popped into her head.

Chapter 60 Full of Confidence?

What the heck? She's in charge of playing the drums?
