Yamamura Misao Is Still Trying to Become a Popular Character Today

My name is Yamamura Misao. I'm currently the protagonist of an official spin-off manga, and my goal is to become a popular character.

[Let Bro Misao be the protagonist? Are you serious?]

[I'm out. I'd rather read the one next door where Masumi Sera's brother Kyogoku Makoto beats his way through everything like a Saiyan.]

[Hey, I'd rather see Ran. I love watching pretty girls, hehe~]

Thanks to the official creators' so-called philosophy of letting a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend, every other character has their own what-if manga where they star, besides my own.

And every one of them is more popular than mine.

My manga hasn't even started serializing, and my artist has already given up. So, to make sure the manga can go on smoothly...

I gained a mind of my own, and my artist became my personal System, keeping an eye on the forums and making plans so I could become a popular character.

[Get close to other popular characters! Ride their coattails!]

So I took my limited-edition Kamen Rider card and headed to Tokyo to find my original-story childhood friend and first love, Hiro, hoping to become familiar to readers.

To a certain blond with a dark complexion: your childhood friend is fine, but in the next second, he's mine. There's a term for it: the childhood friend who arrives later.

[Beat a popular character and show off what you can do!]

Because I'm Yamamura Misao, I come with a high-score buff and a lucky buff.

So I took the place of a certain blond with a dark complexion and became the top-ranked student entering the police academy.

[Show off the unique way you do things!]

I went undercover with the Public Security group. I was so ridiculous that Gin decided there was no way I could be a spy, and I became the first of the three to receive a code name.

On missions, my naturally unreliable buff tripped up my genuine Black Organization colleague, letting me stand out.

After I was exposed as a spy and made a run for it, the goose I raised managed to hold off most of my pursuers.

Ahem, I really wasn't doing any of this on purpose to make the story entertaining.

But when I finally came to my senses...

[Bro Misao is awesome!]

[Here to watch Bro Misao's antics again today!]

[My Bro Misao is on the way to becoming Conan's top-tier star! Go!]

I'd really become a popular character.

1. The story of Bro Misao cheating death and joining the police academy group.

2. Fun fact: Bro Misao met Hiro before the blond with a dark complexion did.

3. Important fact: Bro Misao passed the same career-track exam as the blond guys and became a police inspector. He's a cheerful, carefree idiot who studies well and is lucky.

4. This story was written purely for ridiculous antics. Please don't read if that's not your thing.

Theme: Even a happy-go-lucky idiot can become the protagonist.
