[Tokyo Revengers] Bro, Why Don't You Just Study?

??I dig pits and never fill them! But don't you dare rush me for updates!??

??Extremely OOC, Mary Sue, elementary-school-level writing!??

??A 1vN story that won't break up canon couples! No underage sex!??

??For now, this is only at the setting stage. I'll start digging once I feel the enthusiasm. I'm not around often, so it may update once a year, if that.??

.

I have an older brother.

A twin, actually.

We have the same face.

We're the same height.

Our weight... well, I'm a little lighter.

My brother doesn't act like an older brother at all.

He's always throwing childish tantrums.

He steals his little sister's food.

And he takes over her bed.

He's always out fighting and street racing, and when he's at school, he's either skipping class or sleeping.

Apart from being popular and good at fighting, my idiot brother basically has no good qualities.

I once told him disdainfully that a delinquent like him might end up in the yakuza when he grew up, so I should cut ties with him early. To make sure nobody mistook me for a delinquent girl, I even went and dyed my hair the same black as our eldest brother's.

Don't ask. The point is, I can't be like my brother. I'm going to be a good student.

Study hard, improve every day. I have to believe that I'm the hope of the future.

So, after all that effort

"Why are you bothering me while I'm studying?!"

In the middle of a chaotic brawl, I kicked away some delinquent who'd appeared out of nowhere, squeezed my eyes shut, and let out that anguished cry.

Oh, right, I forgot to mention something.

My idiot brother is really good at fighting.

I don't want to fight, but as someone who's trying to be a good student, I'm actually about as good as he is, though I'm no match for him.

Because he's such a good fighter, my brother has a very chuuni nickname.

He's called "The Invincible Mikey."

"Um, Ichiichi..."

"Get lost. Don't tell anyone I'm your sister."

I shoved away that smiling face. He was my twin brother, Sano Manjiro.

He's so annoying. It's bad enough that he became a delinquent, but why won't he let his little sister study in peace?

Still, I have to keep an eye on him, or who knows what kind of trouble he'll get into.

Besides, there's something I haven't told him.

"...Because no one would believe them, right?"

I turned around. The space behind me was empty, but I could see someone there. His expression was actually quite similar to mine. I gave the black-haired man a helpless smile. "But no matter what, he's still my brother, right?"

"Shinichiro-nii."

.

I've always been single.

I wish I could say something like, "I'm going to be a good student, so I won't date this young," but unfortunately, the truth is that nobody has ever confessed to me. I've seen plenty of boys blush around me, and I've even seen love letters in their hands, but nobody has ever confessed to me like they do in manga.

"...That's strange."

"What's strange?"

"It's nothing to do with you, big brother."

I fell into thought, completely missing the way my brother's smile had turned cold as he looked at someone else.

There's something else that's strange.

"Please, Ichiichi, don't call me your brother. Not even with a suffix."

Right, there's that, too.

I still can't understand why Takashi, who really does act like an older brother, would clasp his hands together and beg me like that.

.

I'm Sano Ichiichi, Sano Manjiro's twin sister.

I'm pretty good at fighting, but right now I'm doing my best to move toward an ordinary, peaceful life as a good student.

The only unusual thing about me is that I can see some of the dead.

And I know there's a way to let them return to our lives.

"Let the story end in peace."

That's what the voice told me.

And when I finally understood what "end in peace" meant, I suddenly started crying and grabbed Takemichi's hand. "Please, Takemichi, let's get my brother to study properly together!"

Suddenly being saddled with a responsibility like "saving the world" is a heavy burden.

Otherwise, honestly, I'm going to lose it

Even without physical bodies, my bedroom is still going to be too crowded!

Why do all of you older brothers have to stay in your little sister's room? Emma's already gone back to her own room!

In the end!

If you just become a good student, you can avoid all your troubles!

So if this story can't end in peace, it's all because

Why don't you study properly, big brother?!

If you studied properly, none of this crap would happen!

"What's wrong, Ichiichi?"

I looked at the culprit lying on my bed, eating taiyaki and scattering crumbs on the sheets, his face an innocent picture of purity. I just clenched my fists.

...Damn it.

It's my fault for being unable to beat him.

.

Just jotting down some settings. Whether I'll start this story is undecided.

If I do, it'll be another huge, long-running pit, so we'll see.

The heroine has blond hair and black eyes. She started dyeing her hair black in middle school, but it grows quickly, so sometimes her roots turn blond again if she doesn't touch up the dye in time.

The romance is 1vN, with a spiritual pseudo-incest element, but with the characters who have clear canon pairings, their relationship is strictly that of siblings.

It's a everyone-loves-the-Mary-Sue kind of story, but nobody can beat Mikey with his extra-brother-obsessed attributes, so everyone gets to be happily single.

All the characters who died exist as spirits. They don't have to stay together all the time, but some force requires them to meet the heroine from time to time.

It should be the kind of story with a lighthearted, happy ending and settings that go wherever I please.

That's all for now, I guess.
