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

What does this mean?! What's going on with the werewolf?

[Is Yu Genkawa... a 'werewolf' arranged by the production team?!]

[Is he not here to find love? Is he here to break everyone up?]

So his multiple relationships with girls were just a persona?

[It was a script; it was all acted out!]

After a brief, extreme shock, the barrage of comments exploded with a speed and density even more frantic than when they were angry before!

However, this time it was not just a barrage of insults and condemnations, but a fierce discussion filled with immense astonishment, disbelief, and a complete upheaval of values!

Wait a minute! So he wasn't really interested in dating from the beginning?!

[This is incredible! This plot twist! I'm completely stunned!]

[Director Aoyama is so bold! This idea is absolutely amazing!]

So… he was right not to choose anyone? Because it was originally a 'werewolf' mission?

[So, calling him a scumbag before...wasn't that a mistake?!]

[I knew it! How could Mr. Genkawa be that kind of person!]

[Yu-kun's fans! It's time to fight back! Quick, spread the word!]

Inside the glass pavilion during the live broadcast, the expressions of the other guests were also quite varied.

Kumano Shinyuki's mouth was agape, wide enough to fit an egg. He looked at Genkawa Yu, then at the director, his face filled with shock, as if to say, "I can't believe I've been living with a werewolf for so long."

Kengo Morimoto was stunned at first, but then he laughed. He just found it amusing, but then he thought that this way the attacks on Yu Minakawa on the Internet could be completely reversed.

MEM covered her mouth, her eyes wide, staring at Kurokawa Akane's face, her mind racing.

Asakura Toru had already recovered from her surprise, but she couldn't help but glance at the young man standing there again.

Since Akane Kurokawa had already guessed it, she wasn't as surprised. Besides, the live stream was still going on. When the camera panned to her, the girl's face also showed an expression of extreme surprise.

That's how she cooperated; she was going to act until the very end.

Just then, Director Aoyama's voice rang out through the venue's sound system, carrying a hint of relief and barely suppressed excitement.

"Ladies and gentlemen, as you can see."

"Yuanchuan-kun's participation in 'Love is a Required Course in Life' does indeed carry a special role, which is to act as a 'werewolf' in the dating reality show. All his actions are not out of malicious manipulation of emotions, but to better serve and interpret the new theme that this program wants to explore!"

The camera immediately zoomed in on Yu Minakawa.

He stood in the center of the pavilion, rainwater sliding down the glass exterior, creating a flowing, shimmering backdrop.

With a gentle smile on his face, the young man took the microphone from the staff member, looked calmly at the main camera, and his voice, transmitted clearly through the microphone, reached every corner.

"Yes, I'm sorry for keeping it from everyone for so long."

Genkawa Yu bowed slightly first, then straightened up, his gaze sincere.

"As the director said, I did participate in the show with the mission of 'observation' and 'prevention'. The production team hoped that I could break some of the established routines of dating reality shows and participate in and present the whole process from a perspective that may not be so 'correct' or even controversial."

He paused, his voice becoming more steady and powerful, carrying a thought-provoking strength.

"The production team and I both hope to convey a message through this—love is not always like a fairy tale, where you fall in love at first sight and can't live without someone. It may be filled with hesitation, comparison, uncertainty, and even misunderstandings and pretense."

"In reality, very few people can be sure that the other person is the one for them in just a few weeks."

"More often than not, it's about getting to know each other gradually through interaction and confirming things step by step through the details."

His gaze swept over the three female members present, and with sincere apology, he said, "My 'werewolf' identity may have amplified this uncertainty and even caused some harm and misunderstanding. I am deeply sorry for this."

"But its core purpose is to help all viewers understand this."

His voice suddenly rose, becoming incredibly persuasive.

"Love requires you to open your eyes wide, feel with your heart, and let time prove it."

"Don't be easily fooled by temporary fame, tricks, or sweet words, and don't easily dismiss someone because of a brief period of indifference or hesitation."

"More importantly, we must learn to protect ourselves and make rational judgments."

"Perfect love may not exist in a few days of infatuation, but in long-term companionship, careful management, and sincere confirmation between each other."

His words were clear and sincere, instantly elevating the entire incident to a discussion of values ​​in relationships.

After he finished speaking, the barrage of comments exploded again, and the sentiment completely reversed 180 degrees.

So that's how it is! I misunderstood Genkawa-kun!

He makes so much sense! In reality, there aren't that many cases of love at first sight that last a lifetime!

[Dating reality shows are all scripted! But this time, I'm impressed by the script.]

Therefore, Yuu Minakawa is not a scumbag; he was just being professional in his role.

[Waaaaah, I wronged you, Yu-kun! I'm so sorry!]

This plot twist is incredible! Director Aoyama's masterpiece!

[#YuuMinagawaIsSorry#]

[#The pinnacle of werewolf-themed variety shows#]

This show will definitely go down in history!

Besides online viewers, countless colleagues in the entertainment industry who witnessed this scene through the live stream were also stunned by this incredible feat, and they all posted messages expressing their amazement and admiration.

As Mai Sakurajima looked at the calm, composed man on the screen who seemed to have the whole situation under control, a knowing and appreciative smile finally appeared on her lips.

The trending topics list was completely dominated by related entries for "Love is a compulsory course in life".

However, the content has changed from previous insults to expressions of amazement, apologies, and discussions about the depth of the program.

#Yuu Genkawa Werewolf#

#You need to be discerning when it comes to love#

#A divine plot twist in the history of dating reality shows#

These terms firmly occupy the top spots, enjoying unparalleled popularity.

The live broadcast of the finale concluded successfully amidst tremendous excitement and discussion, or rather, it reached the highest peak that the production team had anticipated.

That evening, Yu Genkawa took the initiative to host a celebratory banquet at a high-class restaurant in Tokyo, inviting all the guests, directors, and core staff to officially conclude this special period.

The atmosphere inside the private room was subtle and complex.

Genkawa Yu raised his glass first and once again solemnly apologized to everyone, especially the three girls.

"Thank you all very much for your understanding and cooperation during this time. Due to my special mission, I may have caused some trouble and unpleasant experience for you. I am really sorry."

"I toast this glass to everyone, and also as an apology."

His attitude was extremely sincere, and his explanation during the previous live broadcast had already gained the public's understanding. Although the people present had mixed feelings, most of them expressed their understanding.

Nobuyuki Kumano and Kengo Morimoto were the first to say they were fine and even found it quite exciting. MEM Chu quickly regained his energy, laughing and teasing Yu Minakawa, and curiously asked about many details.

Asakura Toru nodded quietly, indicating that it was alright. Kurokawa Akane exchanged a knowing glance with him and gently raised his glass in acknowledgment.

Director Aoyama was beaming with excitement, stating that this was his most successful and daring attempt since he began his career, and thanking Yu Genkawa for his perfect performance and everyone else for their hard work.

After a few rounds of drinks, the atmosphere gradually relaxed, and everyone began to talk about the interesting things that happened on the show and their outlook for the future.

As the banquet drew to a close, everyone gradually left the restaurant.

While waiting for the car at the entrance, Asakura Toru slowly walked to Genkawa Yu's side, his voice still soft but clear, "Genkawa-kun."

"Asakura, what's wrong?"

Yuan Chuan You smiled. Just now at the party, he took the initiative to offer an important suggestion to the other participants in the program.

The six of them have formed a bond through this encounter, so they will be good friends from now on, and there's no need to use honorifics anymore.

"Was what you said during the live stream true, or was it just for the sake of the show?"

"Of course it's true."

She slightly raised her head, her hazy gaze seemingly clearing for a moment in the night, "Then, Genkawa-kun will definitely come to our group's live performances or concerts in the future, right?"

"Of course, I will definitely go. I'm really looking forward to your performance, Asakura."

Looking at the girl in front of him, who had few emotional fluctuations but always expressed herself very casually, Yuan Chuanyu found it particularly easy to get along with her because of her personality.

"That's good."

Asakura Toru got the promise he wanted, and they had already exchanged private numbers, so they wouldn't have to worry about not being able to contact each other in the future.

Thinking of this, a very faint but genuine smile appeared on the girl's face. After nodding slightly, she turned and got into the car that had come to pick her up.

After a while, Akane Kurokawa came over. She stood under the eaves, looking at the traces of drizzle remaining in the night sky.

“Kurokawa.” Genkawa Yu walked to her side.

Kurokawa Akane turned her head, a gentle smile on her face. "The plan was a success. Congratulations, Genkawa-kun. Public opinion has completely reversed."

"This wouldn't have been possible without your cooperation, Kurokawa. I never expected you to keep performing until the very end."

Genkawa Yu looked at her, his tone of praise very serious, "Especially that surprised expression at the end, it was really spot on."

"Isn't this our original plan? To help Genkawa-kun's plan succeed."

Akane Kurokawa smiled, then suddenly whispered, "I actually thought a lot about the content of my confession during the live stream just now. This kind of format can't really be considered a true confession."

Genkawa Yu didn't speak, he just looked at her quietly.

"If it's a real confession, I only hope that the only people present are me... and the person I'm confessing to. I want to convey this to Genkawa-kun."

Her voice was soft, yet carried a clear determination.

"I don't need that kind of public, potentially interpreted in various ways. My intentions... have been repeatedly confirmed."

"Uh..."

Yuu Minakawa was somewhat surprised, because while Akane Kurokawa was usually very gentle, she could sometimes use her analytical skills to say some very insightful things.

Now that the dating reality show has ended, her attitude has also changed somewhat.

Moreover... Yuanchuan Yu had already sensed something about the matter of feelings.

"Although the show has ended, my 'action' may have just begun."
