Onmyoji who mingles in the world of anime

They weren't in a hurry to go home, but they also had no intention of going on a date; they just wanted to take a leisurely walk together.

……

At the same time, with the vigorous promotion of the All-Star Idol Campaign, various academies began to recruit and establish all kinds of school idols.

In society, many people have formed idol groups of all sizes for various reasons, such as liking idol activities or being able to become famous quickly.

With the establishment of these idol groups, idol management companies sprang up like mushrooms after rain.

Of course, while many small companies have emerged, the truly powerful ones are still the large idol management companies that have been established for many years.

However, while large companies may have the resources, their strength is limited to cultivating idols; they are not powerful enough to interfere with the outcome of a competition.

Moreover, this idol project was spearheaded by high-level executives and involved major conglomerates and families, forming a nationwide event. Trying to pull a fast one would cost far more than the eventual gains.

Therefore, people who are not mentally ill generally wouldn't think about engaging in shady dealings.

Because there's no profit to be made!

Besides, do those big conglomerates and families really need your little bit of money?

All you want is a share of the pie, while the higher-ups and big conglomerates want to make the pie bigger so they can divide it up.

And those so-called brokerage companies only get some superficial scraps.

So how could they possibly give up on expanding the whole pie over such a small scrap? That would be harming their own interests!

We've gone off on a tangent.

With the start of the new school year at high schools across Japan, the number of school idol groups being formed is naturally increasing rapidly.

Let's go back to the morning.

Chiba City.

Private Yuqiu Girls' High School.

This school was just established this year. Its predecessor was the Jingu Music School, and then a new school was built here.

This school continues the musical tradition of its predecessor, and has set up a music department in addition to the general studies to specifically train music students.

The entrance exam for the music department requires an assessment of musical abilities, such as singing.

In the first year, the ratio of music students to general students was approximately 1:3.

Today is also the first day of school for this school.

Early in the morning, Tang Keke excitedly put on her school uniform and prepared to leave.

For breakfast, she planned to buy some bread on the way, but getting to the new school was naturally more important.

Not long after, as she was passing through a small alley, she suddenly heard a beautiful song coming from not far away.

She quickly walked forward, and then she saw an orange-haired girl wearing the same school uniform as her and white headphones walking past her, singing and dancing like a princess from Disney.

Hearing the other person's beautiful singing voice, she was immediately shocked. Is this a student from our school?

Your singing is amazing!

And she's so cute, I definitely want her to be my idol too!

Chapter 1276 The Place Where Dreams Begin (Second Update)

At the intersection, Tang Keke saw the orange-haired girl from before waiting for the traffic light. Excitedly, she went over and happily said in Chinese:

"It sounds so good!"

"W-what are you doing?" Shibuya Kanon was startled by Tang Keke's sudden appearance and quickly took a few steps back, asking in confusion.

Tang Keke leaned closer to her again and said, "You sing so well! Absolutely!"

"Huh? Chinese?" Although Shibuya Kanon didn't understand what Tang Keke was saying, as the child of a translator, she still knew which language it was.

"I just heard you singing! Shall we sing together from now on? Let's sing together! Let's become school idols together!" Tang Keke said excitedly.

"Your face is too close." Seeing that Tang Keke was almost touching her face, Shibuya Kanon quickly took a few steps back and said in all the Chinese she had learned, "Hello, thank you, xiaolongbao, goodbye!"

After saying that, she took off running, shouting as she ran, "How scary, how scary!"

What's wrong with this girl?

"Please wait a moment!" Tang Keke quickly chased after her. At this moment, she finally realized that she had used the wrong language and hurriedly called out in Japanese.

However, given her poor stamina, she soon lost track of the person. After looking around and not finding Shibuya Kanon, she had no choice but to walk towards the school with regret.

……

at the same time.

Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo.

National Otonogizaka Academy.

"Look at this!" Honoka Kousaka excitedly told her friends, pulling out an idol magazine.

"Honoka Jam, what is this?" Minami Kotori asked curiously.

"Idols! Idols!" Honoka exclaimed happily, "This is a high school in Osaka, and this is a school idol school in Fukuoka!"

I've heard that the number of school idols is increasing recently, and the number of students enrolling in high schools with popular idols is also increasing!

So I thought...

Before Honoka could finish speaking, she suddenly realized that Umi Tani had disappeared. She quickly ran out of the classroom and, sure enough, saw Umi Tani walking down the aisle.

So she said somewhat angrily, "Umi-chan, I haven't finished speaking yet!"

Meanwhile, Minami Kotori watched Tenzou Umi's retreating figure with a delighted expression. As her childhood friend, she knew her too well.

Tian Yuan Hai, startled by not hearing Honoka's voice, quickly explained, "I...I have something to take care of..."

"I've got a great idea! Listen to it!" Honoka said excitedly.

Umi Tani sighed, turned around and said seriously, "You'll definitely say, 'Let's become school idols.'"

As a childhood friend herself, she knows Honoka all too well.

Honoka looked at Umi in shock upon hearing this and said, "Ah! Umi-chan, are you a psychic?"

"Anyone could probably guess that!" Tian Yuan Umi said speechlessly.

“Then this makes things much simpler. Let’s go to the teacher now and apply to establish the Idol Club,” Honoka said confidently.

"I refuse."

"Why?" Honoka asked in surprise, "Look, they're so cute! So sparkly! I would never normally have the chance to wear these clothes!"

"Do you really think you can recruit students based on this?" Tian Yuan Umi retorted.

"Well... that depends on whether I can become famous," Honoka said somewhat uncertainly.

She came up with this idea on a whim, and whether it will work or not, we'll only know after we try it!

"The school idols in that magazine, like professional idols, have achieved their success through hard work and dedication. Someone like Honoka, who started out of mere curiosity, will not have a good outcome."

Tian Yuanhai reprimanded, "Let me make this clear: idols are not acceptable!"

"Hey! How could this happen!"

……

Shizuoka Prefecture, Izu Peninsula.

Uranohoshi Girls' Academy.

This academy is located on a mountain on the Izu Peninsula. Because it is a rural high school, the number of students is small, and there are occasional rumors that the school is going to close down.

Today is also the first day of school for this school. Unlike other schools that have special recruitment days for clubs, this school keeps everything simple.

As soon as the new students entered the school, the senior students had already set up booths on the playground and started recruiting new members for their clubs.

Although the school doesn't have a large student body, there are still more than a dozen clubs, and it's quite lively when everyone gets together.

Meanwhile, in an open space, an orange-haired girl, wearing a victory headband, stood on a wooden crate, holding a megaphone and a club nameplate she had written herself, and shouted loudly:

"We're talking about the school idol club, the school idol club that was established in the spring. Please take good care of us!"

Whether it's you or someone else, would you like to become a school idol? A shining school idol!

Unfortunately, no matter how much she shouted or how many flyers the silver-haired girl below her handed out, no one paid any attention to them.

"Chika-chan," Watanabe You said with a hint of helplessness.

Chika Takami lowered her head in disappointment, her voice no longer as energetic as before, and shouted with a pained expression, "We are the school idol club, the most popular school idols right now!"

……

Odaiba, Tokyo.

Nijigasaki Academy is a nationally renowned and popular high school known for its free-spirited atmosphere and diverse academic programs.

This school offers multiple disciplines, requiring students to take specialized courses in addition to compulsory ones. Currently offered disciplines include General Studies, Music, Life Design, International Exchange, and Information Processing.

This school may not be the best in all these majors, but compared to many other high schools, it probably has the most diverse range of subjects.

Moreover, in terms of academy size alone, Soubu High School and Shuchi Academy combined cannot match it.

After all, it's jokingly referred to by students as Nijigasaki Airport, and the campus is even larger than many universities.

Soubu High School and Shuchiin High School are just like regular high schools.

As for the hardware facilities, they are comparable to those of Shuchiin.

After all, both sides have invested capital, so the hardware has to be good!

For example, the Kurahashi family owns 5% of Shuchiin Academy and 10% of Nijigasaki Academy, shares that they acquired by spending money to snatch from other powerful families.

The Shinomiya family, for example, only owns about 5% of the shares in Nijigasaki Academy.

At this moment, two students from this academy, Uehara Ayumu and Takasaki Yuu, were standing outside a shopping mall, watching with shock the blue-black-haired girl dressed in idol costume dancing on the stairs, along with other passersby.

Not long after, the other person's performance ended, and they left amidst the screams and applause of the fans, who then dispersed.

At this moment, Yu Takasaki exclaimed in shock, "That's amazing!"

“Hmm!” Uehara Ayumu said blankly.

"Right! That's amazing!" Yu Takasaki excitedly grabbed Ayumu Uehara's hands and said excitedly.
