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

"Mr. Genkawa, please be prepared."

"..."

Genkawa Yu was slightly taken aback, then burst into laughter.

He looked at the girl in front of him, who had surprised him somewhat, and a hint of genuine appreciation flashed in his eyes, along with a hint of expectation that perhaps even he himself was unaware of.

"Ah."

He nodded, his tone equally serious.

"Oh, by the way, I'll prepare a gift for you later, Kurokawa, you can look forward to it."

"A gift? I understand, I'll look forward to it."

Akane Kurokawa got the response she wanted, and a bright smile immediately appeared on her face. Then she reached out and hugged the young man in front of her.

"Now, I should be able to accept Genkawa-kun's hugs, right?"

"Well, that's true."

Now, Akane Kurokawa is no longer as shy around Yu Minakawa. Having set her sights on someone, she wants to learn how to pursue her own happiness.

We're all smart people; there's no need to spell everything out.

"Goodbye, Jiuling Luqi Bayuanchuan-kun, I'm going back now."

After the hug, Akane Kurokawa nodded and turned to leave decisively.

The girl's fragrance still lingered on her clothes. Genkawa Yu simply smiled and then let out a long sigh.

"...Is it out of your heart?"

He looked at his system panel. The dating reality show had come to a perfect end, but the entry for "All Living Beings" had not yet been completed.

Production Sequence 1: The Masses

Experience points: 92/100

Experience points: 93/100

Experience points: 94/100

"Just a little bit more... I might need to take care of the next tasks."

Genkawa Yu touched his blond hair. If he were to play the lead role of Arisu Ryohei in "Alice in the Land of the Dying" next, he should dye his hair back to its original color.

The dramatic reversal on the final night of "Love is a Required Course in Life" swept across all social media platforms with nuclear-like speed.

All the previous overwhelming insults and boycotts crumbled and vanished in the face of truth and depth.

Instead, there was a tsunami of amazement, apologies, discussions, and... a crazy surge in popularity!

At this crucial moment when public opinion was turning around, Yuki Natsukawa once again demonstrated organizational and operational capabilities far exceeding those of ordinary fans.

She suppressed the urge to burst into tears or laughter to vent her emotions, her fingers almost dancing across the keyboard as she issued clear and efficient commands to various fan groups and social media platforms.

"Attention everyone! The time to fight back has come! Do not spam the chat mindlessly!"

"Everyone must seize this opportunity, not only to clear up those people's slander against Yu-kun, but also to make good use of this incident to make Yu-kun's popularity continue to rise!"

"Photo team, copywriting team, everyone get to work!"

Under her efficient command, the members of the 【Only Love Youjun】 fan group and their respective small groups began to operate at high speed.

Among them, the work of the photo retouching team was particularly impressive.

They quickly captured the moment just before the live stream ended, when Genkawa Yu was holding the microphone and making his final "werewolf" statement.

After careful color correction and angle selection, a photo that can be described as a "divine image" began to spread like wildfire.

In the scene, Yuu Genkawa stands in the soft light of the glass pavilion, with the background being the blurry night rain still drizzling outside the window.

He tilted his head slightly, casually holding the microphone in one hand, while the other hand hung naturally at his side. Facing the camera, he explained his identity and mission.

Under the lights, Genkawa Yu's face no longer had its usual formulaic expression, nor the intense emotions he displayed when performing on stage. Instead, it carried a gentle smile that was slightly tired but incredibly genuine, a smile that came from shedding all pretense.

Those eyes, which always held countless thoughts, now looked at the camera with clarity and honesty, as if they could penetrate the screen and reach the heart.

The curve of his lips was just right, a mixture of apology, relief, and a composure and wisdom that came after weathering the storm.

This picture perfectly captures the most complex and captivating aspect of his personality.

Keep your eyes open and fall in love wholeheartedly.

I hope everyone will take good care of themselves.

This amazing image paired with this caption instantly struck a chord with countless passersby and spread like wildfire at an unprecedented speed!

【Aaaaaah! This picture! I'm dead!】

[Your face is so small! You're so beautiful!]

[So gentle and wise! Teacher Genkawa is truly like a god descended to earth!]

[Positive values ​​and good looks! I declare myself a fan!]

[Those who have previously criticized him, please apologize!]

With the combined power of adorable images and memorable quotes, Yu Genkawa's Twitter followers began to grow at an astonishing rate.

Seven hundred thousand, eight hundred thousand, nine hundred thousand.

Within four hours after the show's final live broadcast ended, his number of fans kept climbing.

With the influx of countless new fans and the return of old fans, that number suddenly jumped.

Twitter followers have officially surpassed one million!

This is a landmark figure, signifying that Yu Genkawa has completely shaken off the shadow of the previous public opinion crisis. His popularity and influence have not only fully recovered, but have also reached an unprecedented new height!

Meanwhile, inside Hoshino's office, a completely different scene unfolded.

Seeing the dramatic reversal of public opinion online and the soaring popularity and buzz surrounding Yu Minakawa, the manager, Kazuya Nakahara, was so excited he almost burst into tears. He was overwhelmed with congratulatory calls and business negotiations from various media outlets and partners.

President Kato Arashi, on the other hand, was much calmer. She picked up her teacup and looked at her niece, Kato Megumi, who had been sitting quietly on the sofa next to her.

Kato Megumi's face was expressionless as she looked down at her phone screen, which was constantly updating with positive news and data analysis about Genkawa Yu.

"benefit."

Kato Arashi spoke, his voice carrying a hint of inquiry.

"Now that you've graduated, if you really want to work at a firm, which direction do you plan to start with?"

"Artist assistant".

"...If you were to work as an artist's assistant, do you have someone in mind?"

Kato Megumi raised her head, her clear and calm eyes looking at her aunt.

"I want to choose Genkawa-san."

"..."

The stunning reversal on the final night of "Love is a Required Course in Life" will have far-reaching and lasting effects.

Like a tsunami, although the waves gradually subsided, they completely reshaped the coastline.

Online discussions about Yuu Genkawa's "werewolf" identity continue to escalate, quickly shifting from initial emotional reactions to in-depth analyses of his proposed "rational view of love" and admiration for his wisdom and courage.

His reputation rebounded almost overnight, and his popularity soared to an unprecedented level of national recognition.

The phone at Hoshino's agency has become a hotline, and his manager, Kazuya Nakahara, has been experiencing a bittersweet mix of pain and joy these past few days.

On his desk, there were piles of collaboration invitations, and his mailbox was overflowing with offers from fashion magazines, brand endorsements, major variety shows, and even NHK documentaries. Each name was enough to drive an ordinary artist crazy.

“Genkawa-kun, look! There’s an invitation to cover the magazine ‘MEN’S NON-NO’, a big-name endorsement, and even a movie script consultation from Toho.”

"Now, your era has truly begun!"

Kazuya Nakahara, clutching a stack of folders that nearly obscured his view, excitedly rushed into Yu Genkawa's artist lounge at the agency.

Genkawa Yu has now become a pillar of Hoshino Agency. President Kato Arashi generously granted him a spacious lounge so that he could better rest at the company.

Genkawa Yu's fingertips danced across a thin laptop screen, displaying the second half of the manuscript for "Love Like a Bouquet".

He was diligently revising and polishing, the bright sunlight streaming through the window casting a serene and focused silhouette on him.

"It's not that exaggerated. I'm just a newcomer. What do you mean by 'my era'?"

Genkawa Yu smiled, looked up, took the documents handed to him by Nakahara Kazuya, and quickly flipped through them, his face showing a tired but composed smile.

"Thank you for your hard work, Zhongyuan-san. Let's do a preliminary screening first, eliminating those that are obviously unsuitable or have conflicting cycles. We can discuss the rest later."

"Ok."

Kazuya Nakahara nodded repeatedly. Looking at the man in front of him, who had become even more reserved and powerful after experiencing a storm of public opinion that could have destroyed most people, he felt a strange sense of admiration.

Just a few months ago, the other person was a struggling actor who couldn't get any work.

Just then, the screen of Yuan Chuan You's personal cell phone, which was on the coffee table, lit up and emitted a rapid buzzing sound.

The caller ID showed Zhou Fangjun.

Genkawa Yu gestured to Nakahara Kazuya, then answered the phone.

"Mr. Yuanchuan, congratulations! The other day I witnessed a textbook example of public opinion manipulation and image reversal."

Suoh Shun's voice came through the receiver, filled with undisguised admiration and a hint of barely suppressed excitement.

"The current online trends and public opinion in the entertainment industry are perfect, making it the best time for us to press our advantage and expand our gains."

"How does Mr. Suoh plan to press his advantage?"

Genkawa Yu spoke calmly as he walked to the window and looked down at the bustling traffic below.

"That idiot Yamamoto, he left too many clues behind because of his cleverness. A simple search will reveal them."

Suoh Jun's voice turned cold, carrying a hint of ruthlessness.
