Supernatural/Anime Crossover: Where Did My Romantic Comedy Go?

After all, the distance and posture of the two of them are no different from those of other couples traveling around them.

"Nothing much, just some very ordinary... um, essentials for going out."

After thinking for a moment, Kujo Toru gave a more tactful explanation.

After all, for him, the Divine Blade and the newly acquired Heavenly Cloud were indeed essential items when going out.

In other words, you don't need to go through security checks to take the tram here. If it were his previous life, he would never have been so careless as to stuff a knife into his bag and go out.

Kirino Kousaka didn't pay much attention to it, assuming it contained only things like toilet paper, umbrellas, and sunscreen.

At most, I just sighed in my heart that everyone was living a very refined life.

I was thinking of finding another topic to chat with him about when the tram arrived at the station.

A boy rushed up from the platform and, right before Kirino Kousaka's eyes, crashed into Toru Kujo's back.

Kujo Toru remained motionless, while his opponent collapsed to the ground, looking completely bewildered.

Kirino Kousaka's eyebrows furrowed.

Because she could see it clearly: the boy had charged straight at her.

Their objective was clear; they were obviously there to cause trouble.

"You bastard..."

Before he could speak, the boy quickly got up from the ground and bowed deeply to Kujo Toru in apology.

"Sorry, sorry, I didn't notice you and bumped into you by accident."

Kujo Toru glanced at him, then looked away.

"It's okay, just be more careful next time."

"sorry Sorry."

The boy apologized repeatedly and then walked towards the back of the carriage.

Kirino Kousaka was still somewhat indignant:

"Kujo-senpai, you're being too easy on him. That person was clearly doing it on purpose."

"No, he really didn't see me."

Kujo Toru watched the boy's retreating figure, offered a brief defense for him, and then fell silent.

I was thinking about some things.

The tram started moving again, and the announcement of the stops came over the loudspeaker:

"Next stop, Akihabara. Passengers who wish to disembark, please prepare to proceed."

Volume 1: Chapter 182 (4K) The Gradually Emerging Divine Qualities

"It's Akihabara!"

Kirino Kousaka stood excitedly in the middle of the busy pedestrian walkway, raising her arms high towards the sky and shouting loudly.

The summer sun shone on her, making one feel the youthful vitality emanating from her.

Her beautiful face and fashionable attire attracted the attention of passersby, bringing her back to reality from her initial excitement of arriving in Akihabara for the first time.

A slight blush rose on her face, and she quickly ran back to Kujo Toru's side.

Kujo Toru, on the other hand, curiously observed his surroundings.

This was also his first time visiting this famous electronics street.

To be more precise, this was his first time in Tokyo, even though Chiba is actually right next to Tokyo.

However, although Akihabara is known as the holy land of otaku, it is not actually as common as one might imagine, with cosplayers everywhere.

Instead, people dressed in normal clothes were strolling around everywhere.

Although the vast majority of these people are still dressed in the "dark shirt and casual pants" outfit that conforms to the stereotype of otaku.

It makes you wonder if you're actually in the streets of Shinjuku or Shibuya.

It was only when he saw the girls standing by the roadside in black and white maid outfits, handing out flyers and soliciting customers, and the various game and light novel advertisements that could be seen everywhere on the street, that Kujo Toru felt that he had truly come to Akihabara.

What is the exact address of your offline meet-up?

Kujo Toru looked at Kousaka Kirino, who was hiding behind him.

"Let me see. (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated to the initial statement.)"

Kirino Kousaka moved the handbag from her waist to her chest and began rummaging through it.

The stylish design and the Kitamura logo on it are completely out of place in Akihabara.

She took out a slip of paper, glanced at it, and her expression turned somewhat strange.

"Ok?"

Kujo Toru looked at her, puzzled, and leaned closer to take a look.

After what happened on the train, Kirino Kousaka had begun to get used to such close contact with boys, though her complexion had become slightly rosier.

"Oh, it's a maid cafe."

He spoke thoughtfully.

Well, the meeting place wasn't really unexpected for Kujo Toru, since there are only a handful of places in Akihabara that can be used for gatherings.

He's now thinking about something else very important that he needs to confirm.

"In that case, let's go over there first. But I'm not a member of your club, so I'll just watch from the side so as not to disturb you."

Kujo Toru revealed his plans.

He had no interest in participating in Kirino Kousaka's offline meet-and-greet.

It was simply to ensure her personal safety.

On the contrary, Kirino Kousaka seemed a little embarrassed, twisting her fingers together and speaking softly:

"Wouldn't that be too much trouble for Kujo-senpai?"

"No, I'll take this opportunity to review as well, since final exams are coming up soon."

After calming down Kirino Kousaka, Toru Kujo's gaze subtly swept across the street corner.

A dark figure was hiding there, only peeking out its small head, watching him furtively.

It is Gokkou Ruri.

However, since the girl was clearly avoiding him, Kujo Toru did not directly reveal her whereabouts or go up to greet her. Instead, he went to the maid cafe with Kousaka Kirino, as agreed.

I'll go in first.

Kujo Toru glanced at the shop name, confirmed it matched the one written on the note, and then called out to Kousaka Kirino.

They agreed to meet at the store entrance, so the girl had to wait for everyone to arrive.

"Ah."

Kirino Kousaka nodded, took a deep breath, and looked a little nervous.

He took out the book "Summer Fireworks," which Kujo Toru was very familiar with, from his backpack and held it to his thin chest so that the members of the fan club could recognize it.

This was her first time attending such an in-person meeting, so she couldn't help but overthink it.

I feel somewhat uneasy.

Her fair legs under the pleated skirt unconsciously rubbed together.

Fortunately, through the glass window, she could see that Toru Kujo had already found an empty table and sat down, nodding at her, which finally calmed her down a little.

Fortunately, Kujo-senpai was with me.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, playing with her long, light brown hair with her right hand, and waited quietly.

As time passed, a girl dressed in a black Gothic Lolita outfit walked over, and the beauty mark at the corner of her left eye added to her mysterious aura.

Seeing that the other person was holding the same book as her, Kirino Kousaka instinctively wanted to go up and say hello.

But before she could speak, the other person spoke first:

"I saw it all."

"what?"

Kirino Kousaka asked in return, somewhat bewildered.

"You came with your boyfriend, right?"

Perhaps because she had spent a lot of time with Kujo Toru, Gokou Ruri had also picked up the habit of speaking in a flat tone, though it subtly revealed a hint of coldness.

His gaze was as sharp as a knife, staring directly at the other person.

"As a member of the Otaku Girls Alliance, I can't stand seeing someone like you, a popular girl with a boyfriend, infiltrate our ranks."

His expression was very serious, as if what he said came from the bottom of his heart.

However, Kirino Kousaka wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she always felt that the other person seemed to be hiding something.

However, at this moment, she realized what the strange girl of the same age had meant earlier.

Turning her head to glance at Kujo Toru, who was sitting alone in his seat and hadn't even had a glass of water yet, Kousaka Kirino suppressed her slight displeasure and patiently began to explain:

"Kujou-senpai is not my boyfriend, he's just here to protect me."

"Huh?" A mocking smile appeared on Gokou Ruri's face:

"Oh, she's just a bodyguard. She's quite the young lady, no wonder she's dressed so fashionably."

Kirino Kousaka is now truly at the red-hot level.

He clenched his fist.

She had no idea what was going on with this hateful woman in front of her.

This was the first time I'd ever met her, wasn't it? I hadn't offended her at all, so why was she treating me like I was an enemy?

He took a deep breath, just about to retaliate, when he was interrupted by an excited voice:

Are you two members of the Otaku Girls Alliance?

A shadow fell over the two of them, and a very tall woman stood beside them, also holding a book in her arms.

Kirino Kousaka felt like a child standing next to her, so she subconsciously took two steps back to create some distance.

Coincidentally, that annoying woman did the same thing.

"Let me introduce myself, I am Sayebagina."

Seeing the other person extend their hand, Kirino Kousaka glanced at Ruri Gokou, forcibly swallowed back the words she was about to say, and gave her online name:

"Xiao Tongtong."

"Black Cat".

Another voice rang out almost simultaneously with hers.

The two girls looked at each other.

Clearly, they recognized each other through their online nicknames.

It was that guy who was constantly picking on me in the LINE group chat.

With both old and new grudges combined, the atmosphere didn't soften; instead, it became even more tense.

Only the girl with the online name Sayebagina was completely baffled.

Inside the store, Toru Kujo was somewhat surprised, not expecting to run into an acquaintance at a simple offline meetup with online friends.

Isn't that Saori Makishima? The one who played the substitution game with her friends in the cursed building and ended up trapped in the Yomiyama Middle School's Tokoyo?

Whether it was her unusually tall stature for a girl or the electronic candle playing the Cyber ​​Great Compassion Mantra, everything left a deep impression on him.

Moreover, Ruri Gokou's performance was quite unexpected for him.

Because it was the first time he had ever seen her so aggressive.

Kujo Toru glanced at Suzumoto Mayu, who was tiptoeing to unzip her backpack, trying to sneak to the door to eavesdrop on gossip, and flicked her back into the bag with a single finger.
