I really just want to grind for entries related to crossover anime/manga.

"Thank you, Morimoto-nii!"

At that moment, Genkawa Yu saw Asakura Toru walking over.

"Teacher Genkawa."

She stopped in front of him, her voice not deliberately intimate, but with a natural ease.

"I've marked out some routes for tomorrow."

Toru Asakura pulled a light-colored notebook from his pocket, in which important sights along the train journey were marked with colored pencils, such as the location of lighthouses and recommended picnic spots.

"If you don't want to follow the plan, you can wander around as you like."

Genkawa Yu took the notebook, glanced at the carefully marked details, and then looked at Asakura Toru's calm eyes.

"You drew it in great detail, thank you for your hard work."

He pointed to the lighthouse on the map, "Can you see the sunset from here?"

"Ah."

Asakura Toru nodded slightly, his gaze following the lighthouse marker, and said casually, "There might be a sunset tomorrow evening, and the wind will be pleasant."

She paused, looked up at Genkawa Yu, her eyes unwavering, "If there's anywhere you want to go, Genkawa-sensei, we can change our route. You don't have to accommodate me."

"It's okay, let's do it your way. I'm really looking forward to seeing the sunset."

Just as the two were chatting, Director Aoyama's voice suddenly came through the living room speakers.

"Attention, guests! The first episode will be broadcast soon, at 10:00 AM the day after tomorrow."

"Everyone can look forward to it."

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

This variety show is essentially filmed and broadcast simultaneously, lasting only two weeks in total, and the broadcast period won't be much longer than that.

Once enough footage is captured, it can be edited and produced, and with the addition of commentary from dating reality show observers, it will be officially released online.

"Is it finally going to start airing?"

Genkawa Yu glanced at the others present, his thoughts remaining calm.

As a "werewolf," he felt he wouldn't be targeted from the start.

perhaps.

Volume 1: The Shining Morning Star - Author's Note

As the title suggests, this book will be available tomorrow.

The timing of the book release was somewhat unusual, causing a delay of a few days.

Actually, the genre of crossover anime and entertainment isn't particularly popular on cats, and I did some thinking before starting the book.

However, the editor said it was entirely possible to write it. I prefer entertainment works, and many of my favorite characters fit this description, so this story came about.

I'm a pure harem fan, so don't worry about me being into stock trading or having any artsy tendencies; I'll take good care of myself and avoid those pitfalls.

The female leads have probably all been decided, and they will have their own storylines, which will then be integrated into the male lead's career and love storylines.

I initially chose Akane Kurokawa because I found the character very charming when I was watching the fantasies, but everyone has witnessed Akira Akasaka's abilities, and the ending was indeed hard to describe.

That's why I hope to give my favorite characters a better ending, and I hope everyone can support me.

This book will still be updated at the same time as before. I've been working hard to save up some manuscripts these past few days.

It will be available tomorrow, with a 10,000-word update!

I hope everyone will subscribe and support me. If you're going to "grow" a book, please don't keep it indefinitely. It's best to check it every few days, otherwise you'll kill the book. Thank you.

Thank you for your support.

Thank you.

Volume One: The Shining Morning Star: Chapter Sixty: The Train Tracks stretched as far as the eye could see.

The morning sunlight streamed through the villa's floor-to-ceiling windows, casting warm dappled patterns on the floor.

The living room was already bustling with activity. MEM was wearing a bright yellow hoodie and adjusting her devilish hair accessory in front of the mirror. When she saw Kurokawa Akane coming downstairs, she immediately jumped over and grabbed her arm.

"Kurokawa-san, let's go to that popular restaurant during our free time today! I heard their cloud soufflé is really photogenic, it'll definitely go viral for a vlog!"

Akane Kurokawa, wearing a beige trench coat and with her long blue hair loosely tied back, revealing her slender neck, smiled and nodded upon hearing this, "Yes, I don't need to go to the theater troupe today, so I'll go with MEM Chu-san."

"Okay, with Kurokawa-san appearing on camera, the vlog will definitely get a lot of views."

MEM smiled and looked at Nobuyuki Kumano and Kengo Morimoto sitting on the sofa, "What are your plans for today?"

Nobuyuki Kumano slumped on the sofa, looking utterly dejected. "What other plans could I possibly have? As one of the 'heartbroken duo' who got rejected, all I can do is accompany Morimoto-nii to the band's rehearsal room to do odd jobs!"

Kengo Morimoto leaned against the side, his tone somewhat helpless, "If you don't want to go, you can stay here."

"Then forget it. I'll go to the band with Morimoto-san. At least I'll have someone to play with."

Neither of them took the initiative to ask the girls who wrote the three plans from yesterday. After all, it was already embarrassing enough that no one had chosen them, and asking would only make things more awkward.

Just then, footsteps came from the stairs.

Everyone turned around, and sure enough, the person who got off was Genkawa Yu, who was going out on a date today.

Today he changed into a light gray turtleneck sweater, with a neatly tailored black short jacket over it. The hem of the jacket was tucked into the waistband of his dark work pants, and the cuffs were tucked into his fleece-lined Martin boots.

His signature blond hair was styled to be fluffy yet not messy, with a few wisps falling across his forehead, making his eyebrows and eyes appear even more profound. The cool winter air intertwined with the gentleness in his eyes made him so handsome that it was impossible to look away.

"Wow! Mr. Genkawa is so handsome!"

The first person to speak was MEM啾, "You have such a great outfit today! That blonde hair with a black coat, you're like a male lead from a manga come to life!"

Both boys were somewhat surprised, since Yuan Chuan You hadn't dressed up much in the past two days.

"Yuanchuan, your outfit is just too outrageous. If you go out for a stroll, it will definitely attract a lot of attention from passersby."

Kengo Morimoto smiled and said, "Very cool! But you should still be careful, after all, you're not amateurs."

Looking at the meticulously dressed Yuu Minakawa, Akane Kurokawa couldn't help but feel a surge of intense emotion. However, she knew that she wasn't the one who could stand beside him today, so she forced herself to suppress her feelings, followed behind him, and smiled as she offered a few compliments without saying anything more.

After a while, a soft sound came from the stairs again.

Asakura Toru wasn't wearing a scarf today. She had a silver star hair clip behind her ear, and her short, light purple hair was very smooth. The fine strands of hair that clung to her neck added to her heroic air.

She wore a cream-colored chunky knit sweater on top, a light oatmeal-colored duffle coat with buttons, a plaid wool skirt and warm tights on the bottom, and a pair of small brown leather boots on her feet. She looked both sophisticated and fashionable, befitting the center of a girl idol group.

She walked to the center of the living room, her eyes and brows under her short hair were incredibly bright, and she wore a light pink lipstick, making her even more outstanding.

"Asakura-chan looks so good today, it's amazing..." MEM, who loves idols, had her eyes light up even more when she saw Asakura Toru than when she saw Genkawa Yu, and immediately went over to her.

"What a stunning outfit! You're lucky today, Genkawa-sensei."

"I am also honored."

Genkawa Yu smiled and looked at Asakura Toru's face, noticing a subtle light in the other's eyes, a breathtaking beauty.

The two waited for the director's vehicle to pick them up, because they were both extremely good-looking and looked very well-matched from a distance.

Seeing how well-matched they looked standing together, a complex emotion flashed in Akane Kurokawa's eyes, but she quickly regained her gentle smile.

"Be careful on the road, and remember to take lots of photos so we can see the scenery of Chiba when you get back."

"Okay, we'll take pictures."

Asakura Toru nodded slightly, his tone filled with polite gratitude.

After a while, the director sent a prepared text message: a special car arranged by the production team was parked in front of the villa, and the driver was already waiting there.

Seeing the two of them approach, he smiled and opened the car door: "Good morning, you two. Let's head to Chiba first; it'll take about an hour's drive."

The car slowly drove away from the villa, with Genkawa Yu and Asakura Toru sitting in the back, the atmosphere was very quiet.

The car still had cameras inside, and the film crew sat in a car behind. This was the first date between the male and female guests, and Director Aoyama attached great importance to this filming.

Yuan Chuan You thought for a moment and chose to take the initiative to start a conversation.

"Asakura-san, why did you choose to take a train trip?"

Asakura Toru turned his head, a hint of anticipation in his eyes: "I saw it in a magazine before, saying that this railway offers views of endless fields, so I wanted to come and see it."

She paused, then added, "I'm usually very busy with rehearsals, so I rarely have the opportunity to go to places that are far away."

“Then we can relax today,” Genkawa Yu said with a smile. “I just checked, and the Isumi Railway one-day pass covers the entire route, so we can take our time exploring.”

Asakura Toru nodded slightly, a very faint smile playing on his lips. "Let's start with the places I've noted in my journal."

"it is good."

An hour later, the car arrived at Chiba Isumi Railway Station.

There weren't many people on the platform. The retro-style green train was quietly parked on the tracks, with the words "Yiyu Railway" printed on its body, giving it a particularly vintage feel.

Sunlight streamed onto the train, reflecting a warm glow. In the distance, the fields were lush and green, with the occasional bird flitting by, creating a tranquil scene.

"so beautiful."

Asakura Toru couldn't help but sigh, took out his phone from his bag, and took pictures of the train and the fields. He pressed the shutter button very lightly, as if afraid of disturbing the tranquility.

Seeing her taking photos intently, Yuan Chuanyou took out two one-day travel passes from his pocket and handed one to her: "The ticket is already bought, let's get on the bus first."

She lowered her head, looked at the picture on the ticket, and said softly, "Thank you."

The train slowly started moving, and the scenery outside the window kept rushing past. Genkawa Yu and Asakura Toru had good seats and could see the tracks ahead clearly.

"I used to think that trains were magical things."

Asakura Toru suddenly spoke, his voice as soft as the sea breeze, "It moves along a fixed track and can take people to faraway places. Although the scenery outside the window is constantly changing, it always moves and turns back along the same path."

She turned to look at Genkawa Yu, her eyes filled with a hint of confusion.

"Sometimes I wonder, do trains ever get tired of this? After all, they can only ever travel along the tracks in the same repetitive way."

"Tired?"

Yuu was somewhat surprised. She thought Toru Asakura wanted to represent the train's unstoppable progress, but she didn't expect the final destination to be here.
