When Higashino Bi came to, he found himself a student at Shimokitazawa High School, in the same class as Yamada Ryo and Ijichi Nijika. Once he confirmed he had transmigrated into the world of girls' bands, a System called Love Simulation appeared as well.
"Before that, let me ask you something. Are your simulation targets all miserable, troubled, pitiful girls?"
[...They really are.]
Thinking of all the strange characters in the girls' band scene, Higashino Bi decisively rejected the System. "Get lost! I don't want weirdos and crazies clinging to me!"
Even though he had rejected the System, as time went by, he kept following his instincts in his dreams, spending day after day with the girls...
"From the very first moment I saw you, you stole my heart."
"I... I'll give you all my money. Could you be my friend for the rest of my life?"
"Don't underestimate a popular girl's ability to make a move first!"
"It's over... The Kessoku Band is finished..."
Higashino Bi jolted awake.
"What do you mean I'm the one being simulated? And isn't this supposed to be an ordinary world? What's with the supernatural stuff and urban legends?"
Author, since you've suddenly introduced the student council from Kaguya-sama: Love Is War into the realm of solitary rock, putting aside the question of whether the characters' backgrounds are plausible, which parts of the Kaguya-sama anime do you think are most popular among Hedgehog Cat readers? The main female character of the anime is missing, while other characters appear, right? That's why readers think you might want to keep the Shirogane-Kaguya pairing, but you're afraid readers will hate it, so you deliberately don't write about Kaguya and make her a photographer instead. As for having Baiyin handle the aftermath, it's really unnecessary. He'll disappear completely after a few dozen chapters (don't tell me you'll write more of his character later). Not many readers of crossover anime harem novels want to see supporting male NPCs. Friends, best friends, female characters' elders, the protagonist's parents, they are all just supporting NPCs. If they can avoid appearing, they should be avoided. You, on the contrary, insist on making it reasonable and logical to include a supporting male character who doesn't even have any screen time, so you create a character like Shirogane (along with Ishigami and Chika). You're writing a crossover anime harem novel, so please be careful. Harem, male supporting characters suddenly appear, and the female protagonist disappears—just like your name suggests, right?
This is the author. I'd like to ask why the author's backend doesn't allow direct posting of comments or book reviews? Or is it that it can be sent but I just didn't see it...? Then I wanted to post the book directly, but I found that my author account level wasn't high enough to post it... Wow, this system is amazing! It's like the Yamata no Orochi... But I'm not Susanoo, so I can't defeat it at all. I couldn't hold back and just switched to another account to post this... In short, because of the presence of supernatural and ghost stories in this book, I mixed in some characters from other slice-of-life anime to strengthen the human side (actually, if I didn't use them, I would have to write original characters, which is too troublesome, so it's better to just use them directly). One last thing: how could the Hakimi system be so wicked! This is making it so complicated for me to post a book review. I'm going to have to transform into a green-haired little girl, use the dialogue box to unleash a Musou challenge on it, and then trigger my Duel Dance!
Author... Where did you come from, you old fogey? After all these years, your writing style is still stuck in the same vein as 10 years ago? The three golden chapters were used as references, and even those were stale ones; Rainbow Summer's first simulation, besides letting the protagonist show off, only emphasized the alluring power hidden in the protagonist's eyes, forcibly pushing the plot forward; finally, the fifth chapter suddenly and inexplicably added the fear of women setting. Honestly, I won't even go into what a normal fear of women looks like, but if you don't introduce this setting from the beginning or hint at it through daily descriptions, suddenly throwing in something completely irrelevant, isn't this just setting up for the sake of setting up? Other writers who write about large breasts express the girl's grandeur through various descriptions, but you just keep writing about a washboard, and when you need to use it, you say she has two tumors, right?
I recommend the author check out "The Only Player in the Crossover World." That story is specifically about pairing Shirogane and Kaguya; it only includes Shirogane and Kaguya, no other pairings. Why did you include Shirogane, Chika, and Ishigami, but not Kaguya? What's your thinking? If you want to write pairings, just say so!
Do you guys have any abstract, funny storylines to recommend? We can chat about it here for a while. Also, are there any games that can be played by 5 people? Please recommend some.
After reading the first few chapters, I only have one question: in which chapter does the protagonist realize that his so-called dreams are caused by the system? If he still doesn't realize this after having access to the system, then this kind of brain-dead protagonist is probably a no-go; there are far too many examples of that.
At first, I thought your writing was a bit disjointed and didn't quite get to the point, but as I watched it, I found it pure enjoyment. It's been a long time since I've seen such a fun sitcom.
Will the scenes about Shirogane in Chapter 8 be left uncut? I'm watching the original version here. #(Dizzy)
What a sharp critique! (Laughing and crying)
So far, all the characters appearing seem to be comedic.
