Joker's Band Game Story

Wait, why is Amamiya here? Why is he at this school? And when did he become Tendo-sensei's teaching assistant?!

Something's not right! Something's extremely wrong! How did he do that?!

"This is my teaching assistant, Ren Amamiya. He's been standing by the door since the beginning, when no one was paying attention. I don't know if any of you were recording this, but if you review the footage, you'll see that his posture was perfect throughout. Everyone must be mindful of their appearance, otherwise, a single photograph from a photographer could completely ruin your image at any time."

To put it simply, this means... one frame is enough to make people talk about it for a lifetime. As we all know, the video that should have been made was only a few seconds long, but that one scene was so unique that it became a classic.

Therefore, those who want to maintain their public image, especially handsome men and beautiful women, should adjust their demeanor to avoid the appearance of such images.

"There are many career paths, whether you are an artist, actor, or model, your demeanor can represent your image. Take the most basic modeling career as an example. Whether you are a professional model or a brand ambassador, this kind of demeanor is obviously the most suitable."

Anwa Tendo stood beside Amamiya Ren and began to measure him. She used a pointer to tap Amamiya's head, shoulders, waist, abdomen, hips, and other places, asking Amamiya to demonstrate how a male entertainer should face the public.

“These are small details that need attention. These details can make a person appear more energetic and have a more upright posture. Amamiya, relax your strength here. Yes, you see, if you don’t exert force here, it will look very sloppy, and the overall appearance will be quite ugly.”

Ren Amamiya, as a model, truly demonstrated to everyone the demeanor and qualities that a male model should possess, showcasing them to you here.

As for female models? Anwa Tendo is one. Although she is a bit older, she is a model of grace. So female students only need to learn from Anwa Tendo. She also shows some details of herself to let everyone understand the specific performance.

"After saying so much, you might think that this might not be useful. So next, I will give two actual performances to show you just how important demeanor is... Nowadays, love scenes are the most common type of drama, and more than 80% of TV series will have some degree of romance mixed in. So, the love scenes between men and women can also show you just how important demeanor is."

Anwa Tendo then stated that he would be performing romantic scenes with Ren Amamiya, a point they had already discussed in advance.

It's actually the simplest confession scenario, but many people consider it quite challenging.

Many actors are method actors. In general, romantic scenes feature handsome men and beautiful women on both sides, which helps the audience to better empathize and makes it easier for the actors to get into the mood.

But Ren Amamiya, who is not even twenty years old, is acting in a romantic scene with Anwa Tendo, who is an old lady... Many male students already felt that the difficulty level was very high - they couldn't get emotionally involved.

However, Amamiya's performance was so lifelike that every word and action of his seemed to be expressing his feelings to a young girl.

His words, gestures, and every other aspect made the female students in the audience blush and their hearts race.

To showcase her full charm, Amamiya even took off her glasses, and even Nekomura, who knew Amamiya, couldn't help but cover her face as she watched the two perform on stage.

Anwa Tendo, as expected of a veteran artist, portrayed a young girl's shyness, innocence, confusion, and slight excitement when confessed to by someone she liked, all while her back was turned to her classmates. However, Amamiya was not suppressed by her; instead, she did her best to show all her charm, displaying the proper way a young man should confess his feelings, capturing that naivety and nervousness.

"That was just a very common confession performance, but Amamiya and I were both very well-mannered, so it gave a good impression. So what if we performed it with terrible manners? That would be like this."

An and Tendo looked at Amamiya, who understood her meaning. The two of them repeated their performance from before, but this time the students in the audience could clearly feel that their performance was not as good as last time.

Although the plot is the same and the actions and lines are unchanged, the moment the two stand there, it makes people subconsciously feel a little hard to connect with the character.

Especially now, when I look at Amamiya again, I no longer feel the same sense of amazement as before.

Attentive students noticed that Amamiya's posture wasn't as good as last time. He deliberately stood a little crooked and slumped over. This kind of behavior could be felt even on set, let alone under a magnified camera lens.

"Does everyone understand? This is the importance of demeanor. One minute on stage requires ten years of practice off stage. Maintaining this state on stage is quite tiring, which is why it's essential to cultivate good habits off stage so that the body can subconsciously produce the best posture. Demeanor is very helpful both on and off stage. I hope everyone will pay more attention to their demeanor and make themselves stand out."

The Anhe Tiantong class came to an end, and the students below the stage applauded enthusiastically, all of whom had benefited greatly from the class.

If it were someone else talking about etiquette, they might not take it seriously, but since it was a heavyweight actress like Anhe Tiantong who said it, they naturally felt it was important.

Moreover, a comparative performance was also conducted on site. Whether it was a static model or a dynamic emotional scene, it proved the importance of demeanor and allowed these students to learn something real.

Some people may think that good manners are common sense and don't need to be talked about, but it is precisely because everyone thinks it doesn't need to be talked about that many students don't understand its importance.

The course was a success, and Amamiya helped Anwa and Tendo. After class, Amamiya said goodbye to Anwa and Tendo, as she had other things to attend to and Amamiya no longer needed to follow along.

As for how much benefit one can gain from helping this time... the favor, the favor of a popular actress, is important enough. It's normal in interpersonal relationships, and Anhe Tiantong's favor carries considerable weight; such connections will make it easier to get her help in the future.

However, some people cannot understand why Amamiya would become a teaching assistant.

"So what exactly happened? Why are you here?!"

This was the last class, and after class, the students all went home. So Amamiya was grabbed by Nekomu, who had been sitting in the first row, and dragged to the coffee shop for a good interrogation.

"I happened to run into Senior Anhe, and she hoped I could come and help, so I came."

"Wait, wait a minute, how do you know Master Anhe?!"

At this moment, Meow Dream had countless questions to ask Ren Amamiya. Before this, she could say that today was her lucky day, but this time she was really confused. When she saw Ren Amamiya appear on the stage, she even felt like she hadn't woken up yet, and that this might just be a dream.

She never expected Ren Amamiya to be so talented. Wasn't he in a band? How could he act?

Chapter Thirty-Five: Li Xi: I Don't Care

Miao Meng has always believed that as long as you have perseverance, you can accomplish many things in this world.

She traveled alone from Kumamoto to Tokyo to attend high school, hoping to soar to great heights, become a famous person, and then return home in glory.

But there was one thing she had to admit: compared to her hometown, there were far too many extraordinary people in Tokyo, one after another, challenging her worldview.

There are many ordinary people among her seniors and classmates at school, but even more geniuses. She has always been trying to follow in their footsteps, hoping to become an outstanding member herself.

With this mindset, she had been studying diligently, but today Ren Amamiya's performance on stage was a huge blow to her.

Amamiya's extraordinary talent even shocked her more than her seniors at school. Amamiya was not an actor, he was just a band member, but he not only knew Anwa and Tendo, but he could also act with them.

He could even confess his love to an elderly woman with white hair as if he were a young girl; his acting skills were enough to make Miaomeng feel hopeless.

She, a performing arts student, couldn't even say "I like you" so sweetly to a man in his sixties, but Ren Amamiya said it so casually.

It was terrifying, absolutely terrifying.

Sitting in the audience, Miao Meng and Ling Jiuling were all unable to accept or understand this. She never imagined that the gap between herself and a genius would be so large.

"I never knew your acting skills were so amazing..."

Meow Dream murmured helplessly as she looked at Amamiya, completely surprised that Amamiya could be so powerful.

"You'll learn by being toughened up by society."

Amamiya remained unmoved. He genuinely didn't see anything wrong with it. After experiencing so much in society in his previous life, he knew that everyone could act.

Living in a big city for so long, how hard is it to become a seasoned veteran? Who says only actors can act?

Of course, Amamiya himself knew that his acting skills were not actually that perfect, and that he was able to act so affectionately with An and Tendo simply because he had a good mindset.

In his eyes, this acting was more like a joke. He was more open-minded in his past life. Let alone an old lady, he could even confess to the old man at the next table when he was forced to choose the dare in a game of truth or dare. So what's the big deal?

As for deep affection... even if he hasn't eaten pork, he's seen pigs run, right? Recalling all the confessions he's witnessed, learning from them in school isn't that difficult.

To put it bluntly, the more you see, the more you know. Amamiya may look 17, but his past life experiences have given him far too much. How can anyone possibly win against him?

Teacher Da Miao was unaware of Amamiya's special nature; she simply thought Amamiya was a demon, which dealt her a heavy blow.

In her opinion, Amamiya only plays in a band because he enjoys it; otherwise, he could make a lot of money doing anything and live off the popcorn.

We lost, we lost completely. Students from art colleges can't even compare to students from regular colleges. It's so embarrassing to say that out loud.

Others might not know Ren Amamiya's identity, but how could she not? Others probably thought he was Master Anwa's apprentice or something, but only Nyanmu knew that he was just a band member.

Are all people in bands this scary?

Clutching its head, the Meow Dream sank.

Amamiya didn't understand why Meowme had suddenly become lost in her own world, but he didn't care. After all, everyone has their moments of madness; maybe she was thinking about something and felt hopeless, so she just hugged herself and cried.

"Calm down?"

Amamiya sipped her coffee and watched as Nekomu raised her head again; it seemed she had recovered.

But seeing the complex look in her eyes, Amamiya felt that the other person seemed to be thinking something else entirely.

"I guess so... phew..."

Teacher Oobi stared at Ren Amamiya again, wanting to know just how terrifying a youkai Ren really was.

But then she remembered that it was he who had recommended her to Mujica, so her gaze shifted elsewhere: "Um... thank you. About the band."

She invited Ren Amamiya for coffee not just because she had met him, but also to express her gratitude.

Joining the band Mujica did indeed bring her a considerable amount of expected income. The contract with the agency included details about performance fees. If she could truly achieve fame and fortune alongside Xiangzi, she would certainly have a bright future and financial prospects.

Therefore, she expressed her gratitude to Amamiya for recommending her. Gold will always shine, but it is completely different to leave it in the sand and wait for someone to dig it out versus to have someone pick it up and show it to others.

"It's alright. The main thing is that you have enough ability, otherwise I wouldn't have recommended you."

Amamiya seemed somewhat indifferent. When Shoko needed a drummer, Amamiya's first thought was indeed Nyanmu. Her drumming talent was outstanding, and her earnestness and hard work also earned Amamiya's approval, which is why he recommended her to Shoko.

"Besides, if you yourself are not capable, recommending you won't be of much use."

That's true. When Xiangzi first looked at Miaomeng, he said he chose her because of her face and her number.

Without these things, she wouldn't be able to get into Mujica.

Although she didn't know what Mujica was at first, she later realized how big a scheme she had fallen into after learning the actual situation.

Hehe, she definitely has to become famous!

It was this hope that kept her going and allowed her to persevere.

As for her gratitude towards Ren Amamiya, it couldn't just be a simple thank you in words, but she didn't have anything to offer right now, so she just said that she would repay Ren Amamiya in the future.

Ren Amamiya didn't seem to care; he simply waved his hand to indicate that he understood. He had work to do that evening supporting the band, so he didn't stay any longer and left the café.

Today's support is in RiNG, so Amamiya went straight to RiNG's cafe and ordered a coffee with milk.

Sure enough, he preferred coffee milk to coffee.

"Drinking this stuff again?"

Lixi brought over the coffee milk with a helpless expression. She always thought that this was something only children would drink, but Amamiya Ren always ordered it whenever he came over.

This thing isn't even on the menu; she has to have it specially made every time, so she finds it a hassle.

If he weren't a regular customer of this shop, he wouldn't be able to get this kind of drink.

"What's wrong? Is it not good?"

"Hmm... I have no comment."

Riki chose not to ask Amamiya about the drink; she wasn't curious about it at all.

She's washing cups at the front desk right now, and she's quite relaxed.

Today is another day with hardly any customers~

RiNG's café has never been very busy. Basically, no one comes here specifically to drink coffee. People come here to sit while waiting for their teammates, or to find a quiet place to find inspiration or write songs. Therefore, there aren't many customers.

"Doesn't your band plan to perform on stage again?"

While drinking her beverage, Amamiya asked Riki and the others for their thoughts.
