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

"..."

Kitagawa Yu silently looked at the bulletin board in front of him, which was covered with various club promotional posters and looked like graffiti on the wall. He couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard Himegami Karen and Hachimi Anna shouting and yelling beside him.

Given the prevalence of club culture in Japanese high schools, with over a thousand students in their school, there must be more than 950 people participating in clubs, right?

In addition, many people are likely to participate in more than one club, so the number of clubs in their school is definitely not small.

Although the Light Music Club has a relatively high entry barrier, it is still considered one of the mainstream clubs.

This is evident from the fact that there are at least a hundred high school bands in both the underground and mainstream band scenes in Tokyo.

But their school doesn't have a light music club?

This was completely unexpected.

"So what do we do now? Should we form our own light music club?" Himegami Karen turned to look at him.

Kitagawa Yu almost couldn't help but twitch his lips as he looked at the eager look flickering in her pale purple eyes.

"No way? This guy actually wants to join the light music club!?"

"No! Women will only slow me down the speed at which I draw my sword! Beautiful girls are no exception!"

"Even if there are female members in my band, they can't be completely clueless and just there for the fun of it!"

Kitagawa Yu mentally scoffed, then said with a straight face, "I still need to study arrangement and arrangement keyboard for a while longer, so I plan to join the piano club first. As for forming the light music club, let's talk about that after I finish my studies~"

Kitagawa Yu thought to himself, "Now that I've joined the piano club, it's impossible for Himemiya Karen to follow me here, right?"

After all, this is a piano club! You can tell it's super professional just by the name!

Himegami Karen doesn't even know how to play the piano, so why is she here to join in the fun?

However, he forgot that a simpleton with a lack of boundaries cannot reason or reason with him.

Moreover, Kitagawa Yu's understanding of the club is clearly somewhat flawed.

Many people join clubs not because they particularly like the club or have any professional skills, but simply because they want to be with their good friends.

For example, in the original story, didn't Anna Hanami and Lemon Yakishio, who neither write nor read novels, join the Literature Club, which was actually a 'Light Novel Club', because of the male protagonist, Kazuhiko Nukumizu?

Himegami Karen has a strong liking for Kitagawa Yu, who is sunny, handsome, and very 'gentlemanly'. Kitagawa Yu is currently her only friend, so it's only natural that the simple-minded Karen wants to join the same club as him.

Most girls might have been more reserved at this point, but she's a straightforward and somewhat naive girl.

"Then I want to join the piano club too!" Himegami Karen said with a charming smile, giving the impression that she spoke without thinking.

"But Himegami-san doesn't seem to know how to play the piano, does she?" Kitagawa Yu couldn't help but remind her.

“But I can be a piano enthusiast!” Himegami Karen said, extending her slender, fair finger to the bottom of the promotional poster, where the words “Piano enthusiasts are welcome” followed by “Requirements for New Members”.

This startled Kitagawa Yu for a moment, and then it seemed as if crows with a string of black dots flew overhead.

"Are all piano clubs these days... so unprofessional?!"

The strangest one in Chapter 11

"I go first."

"Bye~" ×3

As soon as the school bell rang, the homeroom teacher, Kanatsu Konami, stepped out of the classroom, and Kitagawa Yu followed closely behind, slinging his already packed schoolbag over his shoulder, waving goodbye to Himegami Karen and the other two before quickly leaving the classroom.

Only after he walked out of the teaching building did he breathe a sigh of relief and slow his pace slightly.

There was no other way; in the last bit of time before the lunch break ended, he and Himegami Karen successfully joined the piano club.

Even Anna Hanami, who was originally just there for the fun, was invited to join the club by Yumeko Shikiya, who temporarily became the president of the piano club after the previous president graduated because the piano club could not be disbanded. She did so on the grounds that she could "raise the average appearance of the club".

Only Hakamada Sosuke was "politely rejected" by Shikiya Yumeko on the grounds that she "didn't want any weirdos in the piano club."

Hakamada Sosuke's gaze towards him was filled with resentment.

In addition, Hakamada Sosuke wanted to 'peek' at Himegami Karen, so his gaze had to pass over him as well, which made him feel really uncomfortable.

He felt like Hakamada Sosuke's gaze hadn't left him all afternoon! Even his thick spring school uniform couldn't stop him from getting goosebumps!

"Seriously! So what if Hakamada Sosuke has dark skin and looks a bit like a delinquent? It's not his fault! Besides, compared to Hakamada Sosuke, Shikiya Yumeko is the weirdest one!"

Kitagawa Yuto couldn't help but feel indignant on Hakamada Sosuke's behalf.

As one of the three "superhumans" in the student council, Shikiya Yumeko, this "zombie-type gal," is definitely the most bizarre character in "My Heroine."

His usual behavior is like that of a zombie, with a hunched back and drooping arms, making people worry that he might fall at any moment when he walks.

His facial expression was always listless and like he was about to die. He spoke haltingly and weakly, just like a rusty old machine.

Yet she dresses like a hot girl, with long, light blonde wavy hair, and her shirt is always unbuttoned up to the third button, revealing half of her breasts, comparable to Himegami Karen's Devil Fruit and deep valley.

Her control over boundaries is even worse than Himegami Karen's; she's always giving everyone a treat.

In the original story, she even had Wen Shui and Yan, whom she had only met twice and could barely remember by name, feed her water, help her button her shirt, and hug and cuddle her.

You should know that as a 'standard gyaru' (a Japanese term for a glamorous woman), Shikiya Yumeko's skirt is only high enough to barely cover her panties, and she probably also has a habit of not wearing a bra!

Compared to her, both Himegami Karen and Hakamada Sosuke are obviously much more normal.

"Forget it, whether the club president is normal or not doesn't matter to me anyway, I'm just a figurehead in the piano club. As for Hakamada Sosuke... he probably won't stay like that forever, right? If it really comes down to it, I'll just switch seats with Himemiya Karen. That 'back row by the window, the king's hometown' seat should have been mine all along..."

Looking up at the clear blue sky, Kitagawa Yu's mood brightened again.

Perhaps because of their similar proximity to the sea, Tokyo's sky on a sunny day is just as blue as Izu's.

Nakano Ward, where Saganomiya is located, is adjacent to Shinjuku Ward, one of Tokyo's three core wards.

It only takes 20 minutes by train from here to Shinjuku Station without any transfers, and less than half an hour to get to Shibuya, but you can hardly see any tall buildings.

It looks like a crowded, bustling small town.

Here you can see a bustling shopping street, rows of detached houses, and old-fashioned two-story apartment buildings without elevators.

There was also the open-air tram station and the tram tracks that ran right through the street, with rising and falling barriers on both sides.

It felt like stepping into a scene from a Makoto Shinkai film.

Although he initially chose to study here simply because the rent was cheap, it wasn't too far from places like Shinjuku, Shibuya, and Shimokitazawa, and it was only about a ten-minute drive from Takadanobaba, where the performing arts school he was going to attend was located, now, after a week, he has started to like the environment here.

However, his relaxed and cheerful mood was soon ruined.

"Class doesn't start until 4:20, so there's no need to rush. Shall we grab something to eat first?"

Just as he was looking at the dazzling array of restaurants and snack shops along the roadside, wondering whether to grab something to eat first or wait until his extracurricular class ended at eight o'clock before going to the supermarket or convenience store to buy various discounted foods, his cell phone suddenly rang in his pocket.

"I've already joined the vocal club!"

"hey-hey!"

Looking at the message Miyamoto Honatsu sent on LINE, Kitagawa Yu's smile unconsciously faded.

Just like the sun overhead, which was just blocked by a drifting cloud, a slight chill appeared in the air.

To be honest, he doesn't want to, and can't, sever all ties with the past and draw a clear line. He also can't forget the bits and pieces of the past ten years, those memories that are incredibly precious to him.

But right now, he really doesn't want to see any news about Miyamoto Honatsu. He just wants to temporarily seal away everything about Miyamoto Honatsu, Okita Sawa, and Sakai Kazuna.

However, Miyamoto Kazuya is just that 'reckless' and 'annoying'. She always appears unexpectedly in front of him, suddenly showing up to assert her presence.

Fortunately, after so many years, he has long since gotten used to it.

"Congratulations"

Kitagawa Yu stopped walking without realizing it, and after a long silence, he replied to her message.

However, the mere words "congratulations" were not enough to satisfy Miyamoto Benxia, ​​who was happy and excited.

"What? All you said was 'Congratulations'? That's so perfunctory!"

Miyamoto Motoka, who was waiting at the school gate for Okita Sawa and Sakai Kazuna to leave school together, immediately showed a sullen expression when she saw Kitagawa Yu's reply.

"Huh? What happened to you?"

Just then, Okita Sawa and Sakai Kazuna walked over and, seeing her expression, couldn't help but ask curiously.

"It's all because of that guy Yu!" Miyamoto Natsumi complained unhappily.

"That guy always said I couldn't hit the high notes and was always off-key, that I could never be a singer. But now I've successfully joined the vocal department! And what did he do? He just gave me a perfunctory 'Congratulations,' it's so infuriating!"

Sawa Okita's pretty face paled, and she subconsciously gripped the shoulder strap of her backpack tightly.

Looking at Miyamoto Mokuharu, who was still muttering to herself, she recalled how Kitagawa Yu had praised her singing more than once, saying that he would form a band with her after high school and become a big star.

But now, just as they have finally graduated from junior high school and are about to enter high school together, Kitagawa Yu suddenly ran off to Tokyo alone.

We once promised to go to high school together and form a band together.

Is going to Tokyo really that good?

Poor Sawa Okita.

Because Sakai Kazuna, the only one who knew the truth, chose to remain silent, she still doesn't understand why Kitagawa Yu suddenly left.

"Alright, let's not talk about that guy anymore. He's already left us all alone. Let's hurry home!" Okita Sawa said coldly and stiffly, as if she wanted to forget Kitagawa Yu.

However, fifteen years had already imprinted that figure firmly in her heart. Could she really forget it just by wanting to?

Sakai and Kanade, like detached observers from the world, glanced at Okita Sawa indifferently.

"If you had to choose between forming a band with Yu and developing your career in Tokyo, or going to Kyoto to attend an equestrian school and becoming a female jockey, what would you choose?"

Chapter 12 The Blunder on the Platform

Sakai Kazuna really wanted to ask Okita Sawa, but she ultimately suppressed her impulse and curiosity and didn't ask the question.

Meanwhile, Kitagawa Yu glanced at the angry emoji that Miyamoto Motokazu had sent again, put his phone away, and walked for about three or four minutes before finally arriving at the tram station.

The open-air platform, paired with the blue sky and white clouds overhead, gives it an anime-like feel.

Saganomiya Station is not a major station, and since it was a weekday and only a little past 3 p.m., it wasn't during the morning or evening rush hour. So, apart from him, there was only one other man and woman on the platform.

However, when he subconsciously turned his head to look at the man and woman, his brows furrowed instantly, and an angry expression appeared on his face.

The man appeared to be in his forties and was wearing a black striped fitted suit.

Underneath the suit jacket was not a neat white shirt, but a flashy T-shirt with the neckline pulled low.
