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

He suddenly spoke, his tone becoming much calmer, "What's done is done, there's no point in scolding you."

Yamamoto looked up in surprise, hardly believing his ears. He was quite unsure of himself after being suddenly summoned by Suo Shogo today.

If I were to be punished and transferred to a small subsidiary to do menial work, my life would be over.

Shogo Suoh took a sip of his sake and looked out the window again, as if talking to himself.

"Hayabusa... is more proactive than I expected. He managed to persuade Minakawa Yu so quickly. It seems he made a significant promise."

He paused, a half-smile playing on his lips.

"Yu Genkawa...is indeed an interesting person. Facing such great public pressure, he was able to stand firmly on the show and even put on a stage play performance?"

"That's actually quite interesting."

The tentacles of the "burning" genre are almost everywhere, so the information about "Love is a Required Course in Life" going to the LALALAI Theater Troupe was delivered to his desk almost immediately.

"Let them keep playing their game, I'd like to see..."

Shogo Suo's voice was calm, "Let's see what tricks my good younger brother and the 'sword' he chose can pull off, and whether they can withstand the real storms."

He looked at Yamamoto, his eyes becoming deep: "Let's leave it at that. There's no need to escalate the conflict. Let's see how Genkawa Yu plans to turn the tables."

Yamamoto was completely dumbfounded, unable to keep up with the president's train of thought, and could only nod and agree.

"Yes...yes, Vice President!"

"Go out."

Shogo Suoh waved his hand and turned his back again.

Yamamoto felt as if he had been granted a pardon and left the office almost bowing.

The office returned to silence.

Shogo Suo stood alone by the window, looking down at the bustling yet cold city below.

His pride and confidence made him not really take his brother's challenge seriously. He even felt that this was a good opportunity to observe his opponent or even "train" him.

Let Suo Shun and Genkawa Yu cause trouble and make a ruckus; that way, he can see their true colors and methods.

The position of father will definitely be his.

Volume 1 The Shining Morning Star: Chapter 77 The Drifting Rain Falls on the Night of Confession (5K)

Amidst the ongoing uproar online and the persistent slander and attacks against Yuu Minakawa, the third dating episode of the dating reality show is finally about to air.

As a die-hard fan of Yu Minakawa, Yuki Natsukawa had been waiting in front of her computer for a long time.

The past week has been a fierce online war for her.

As a core administrator of "We Who Love Yu-kun with All Our Might" and a major supporter of "Yu-Chi CP", she has almost exhausted all her energy leading the Yu-kun fans scattered all over the country in a fierce battle against organized and premeditated trolls and online trolls in the quagmire of various social media platforms.

Her chat window kept flashing, and her fingers were practically sparking as she rubbed them against the keyboard.

Copying, pasting, refuting, reporting, and calming down other group members—she repeated these actions to fight against the tidal wave of accusations of "manipulating emotions" and being a "hypocritical writer."

Every time she saw those meticulously crafted malicious comments, her heart ached as if it were being pricked by needles, but she couldn't give up. Yuki Natsukawa believed that the innocent would clear themselves, and she also believed that the man who always appeared calm in front of the camera could never be so despicable.

"Hang in there, sisters! The truth will come out when the show ends!"

"Those analytical posts are all taken out of context! Don't believe them!"

"Focus your efforts on reporting the accounts with the most obvious malicious intent!"

Finally, the third dating episode of "Love is a Required Course in Life" aired amidst much anticipation.

This time, the dating selection process was different, and when everyone saw that Yuu Minakawa had chosen Akane Kurokawa, Yuki's heart immediately jumped into her throat.

A barrage of doubts and sarcasm flashed across the screen, and her fingers curled up nervously.

However, all of this buildup was to highlight the power of the final bombshell.

"Huh, is it a stage play?"

Inside the observation room, actress Nana Suzuki looked puzzled. "Mr. Genkawa and Mr. Kurokawa chose a stage play for their date? Are they going to perform on stage?"

Actor Kitagawa Akira had seen the information cards of the six members, so he knew that Kurokawa Akane was a stage actor. "Kurokawa-san is indeed a stage actor. It's quite a special choice."

"Maybe I'll get to see Genkawa's acting skills, after all, I've seen '49' before."

Screenwriter Saori Honda ignored the comments and chose to speak up for Yu Minakawa.

Upon hearing this, the others realized that Yuan Chuanyou was not only an emerging writer, but also an actor, so they stared even more intently at the scene on the screen.

The program continued playing, and on stage, the lights gradually dimmed, and melodious music slowly began to play, creating a romantic yet slightly melancholic atmosphere.

Genkawa Yu was dressed in gorgeous medieval-style clothing. The fitted robe made his figure appear even taller and more slender, and the delicate lace trim at the collar and cuffs exuded elegance. His blond hair shimmered with a soft luster under the light, as if he were Romeo himself, who had stepped out of that ancient story.

Akane Kurokawa, on the other hand, resembled a sleeping fairy, her white dress spread out on the platform, the folds of the skirt as delicate as flower petals, her skin as white as snow, her eyes closed, her face carrying a faint sadness, perfectly interpreting the tragic beauty of Juliet.

The next moment, Genkawa Yu transformed into Romeo and began his most perfect performance.

"Ah, my love! My wife!"

"Oh, dear Juliet, why are you still so beautiful?"

"Alright, alright, that's good now, now we can all rest in peace."

He kept reciting his lines, and every move he made was filled with unimaginable emotional turmoil.

The comments kept flashing by. Besides those attacking Genkawa Yu, some people were also shocked by his acting skills.

My goodness, that acting is really something...

He's truly captivating; I almost forgot he's an actor.

I've seen Yu Genkawa's debut work; it was really impressive.

【Yujun! Yu-kun! Yu-kun! 】

[Perfect acting skills!]

When Akane Kurokawa awoke, she saw her "dead" lover.

Then, her face immediately began to portray a range of emotions, from disbelief and horror to immense grief and silent collapse, before finally settling into a calm acceptance of a resolute suicide for love.

This restrained yet powerful performance, capable of tearing through everyone's psychological defenses, left everyone stunned.

[Kurokawa Akane!!! This is amazing! Who said she's just trying to ride on someone else's coattails? She's clearly a treasure of acting talent!]

[Her acting is terrifying; is she really a newcomer?]

I've seen other versions of Romeo and Juliet, but this one is truly amazing—both visually appealing and featuring superb acting.

【Yuichi! It has to be Yuichi!】

[Yuchi's soul resonates with mine; I suggest locking it up! Throw the key into Tokyo Bay!]

Throughout the performance, the four observers in the studio remained completely silent, their expressions mirroring one of shock and disbelief.

After the performance, everyone in the studio applauded.

"What an amazing performance! I'm sure Kurokawa-san will receive a lot of script offers after this show ends."

"Yes, and Mr. Genkawa's acting is also amazing." Suzuki Nana stared at the blond young man bowing in thanks on the screen, a look of amazement flashing in her eyes.

"Indeed, this is probably what genius is all about."

The other two male observers, Kitagawa Akira and Mochi-kei, had collaborated more often, so his praise was louder, while Takahashi Ryosuke simply echoed them calmly.

Off-screen, Yuki Natsukawa stared intently at the program content.

As she watched the praise and exclamations flooding the screen, and saw comments like "Yu Minakawa's acting skills are amazing," "Akane Kurokawa is stunning," and "Yu and Akane are the best," a huge sense of relief welled up in her heart, making the girl's nose tingle.

She held back her tears, releasing the pent-up frustration and grievances of the past few days in an instant.

Sisters, did you see that?! Yu-kun is just that amazing!

[Kurokawa-san is just that amazing! Our persistence was worth it! Counterattack! A full-scale counterattack! Delete all those vile comments!]

The "Yuchi CP" group has been swept up in a sea of ​​celebration. CP fans are feeling triumphant, and the number of group members has seen another surge, making it a new force that cannot be ignored.

After the third date episode ended, instead of the discussions about acting skills and the continued attacks on Yu Minakawa, the production team of "Love is a Required Course in Life," under the direction of director Aoyama, dropped another bombshell on the internet.

The final confession night will be presented as a live, unedited broadcast!

[Tch, I'd like to see how Genkawa Yu chooses. Someone who plays with girls' feelings won't be able to keep up the act during a real live stream!]

[The market is open! Place your order now!]

[Are people actually looking forward to Yuu Minakawa's choice? I'm not watching anymore, he's a scumbag!]

[Whatever! I'm staying in the livestream room all night!]

Various discussions continued to increase the show's popularity. Although attacks against Yu Genkawa still existed, not everyone paid attention to these comments. Some people were just casual viewers who were looking forward to the final confession night.
