[Anime Crossover] Princess Mei and Her Seven Doomed Brothers

[Writer's Block. Enter at Your Own Risk.]

The Upper Rank Six siblings, who were supposed to die and become demons, suddenly took a different path at a crucial point in their lives.

When they opened their eyes, the two siblings found themselves in a mysterious place called Beika Town. The pleasure district where they'd lived was gone, and their sister Ume, who should have died in a sea of flames, had somehow returned to her lively, healthy self.

"For your sister's sake, are you willing to stay?" the man who found them asked the older brother.

Under Ume's expectant gaze, Gyutaro slowly nodded.

And so, with her real brother included, Ume ended up with seven older brothers.

Among them were:

The emotionally detached Six Eyes, heir to the Gojo family;

A bandage-wrapped runaway with a belly full of malice;

The King of the Sheep, betrayed by the family he trusted;

A pineapple-haired guy trapped in a cycle of reincarnation by an experiment;

The head of the Star Religious Group, about to defect and kill his closest friend;

They all looked like strange, dangerous people. But little by little, Ume realized that every one of her new big brothers, including her real one, was a complete idiot.

One kept bringing strays home;

One had a sharp tongue and didn't know how to talk to people;

One was hopelessly obsessed with all things sickeningly sweet;

One smiled as he tried to kill himself every day;

One was extremely insecure;

One laughed like a weirdo, "kufufu," all day;

One was a freak who wanted to brainwash people;

Ume (hands on hips, laughing): You're all idiots! I'm the only one who's pretty and smart, and I even help Crane-chan with the housework!

The big brothers, who'd finally managed to do something right only to mess it up by accident (opening her blank textbook): So, Miss Ume, who's both pretty and smart, have you finished your homework today? Have you studied for the exams coming up in a couple of days?

Ume (her smile freezes as she starts to panic)

--

Ume: I understand the logic... I just don't get it...

Ume: They all came later, so why do I have to call them big brothers too? It's not fair! I'm the older sister! [Throws a fit]

Her hapless big brothers lovingly pat her on the head.

The last task Crane Baoliang received before retiring was to take in characters with unhappy childhoods, raise them, and give them a sincere sense of family.

Like Upper Rank Six, born in the pleasure district and bullied from a young age;

Like the bandage-wrapped runaway, who'd always been on the streets and seen nothing but cruelty;

Like the "King of the Sheep," betrayed by his own group;

Like the "Six Eyes," who was targeted for assassination every day;

But as he raised them,

Crane Baoliang realized things weren't so simple.

Upper Rank Six learned to do housework and became hardworking and adorable;

The bandage-wrapped runaway tried to earn extra money to help with household expenses;

The "King of the Sheep" resolved to become the family's bodyguard;

The "Six Eyes" helped everyone else with their studies every day;

Crane Baoliang: ...It seems I've become unnecessary.

#What to do when the kids are too capable#

#The stay-at-home dad is out of a job#

[Bonus Scene]

One day, Crane Baoliang was accidentally injured by the Black Organization while out of the house.

Upper Rank Six, with his exceptional combat instincts, tightened his grip on his chopsticks. The bandage-wrapped runaway, skilled at scheming, looked thoughtful. The "King of the Sheep," who could control gravity, furrowed his brows.

All the kids watched as the police academy squad followed the Black Organization to their door, and came to an agreement.

#We need to figure out how to take down this organization#

++++#That's them!#

+++

++++The police academy squad had hit a dead end while tracking the Black Organization. Then they saw clues and evidence pouring in, and their pupils trembled: What a deal! All we have to do is be big brothers, look after the kids, and play with them? Easy!

++++What, we have to bring Zero too? No problem, no problem. We'll decide for ourselves. We'll sell him out.

++++Mr. Furuya Rei, currently undercover (half-lidded eyes): Seriously? Is this how people behave?

1. The police academy squad's tragic fates are averted, and they become honorary members of the big family.

2. Just cats snuggling together. Family-focused, no romance, and no pairings outside the canon couples.
