A major event has rocked Jujutsu Society!
The head of the Gojo Clan is joining a dating show!
Suguru Geto's verdict: "Ridiculous."
Satoru Gojo himself: "Doesn't it sound fun? I'll go give it a try."
Shoko Ieiri: "Your attitude is exactly what makes it even more ridiculous."
But why are the daily tasks on this dating show all about fighting monsters?
The strongest in Jujutsu Society doesn't really understand show business. Isn't this just working overtime in a different place?
The cat complains: "You tricked me! Give me back my romantic vacation!"
On this, Hoshino Kiyoshi, a famous slacker in show business, has this to say: "I arranged the whole thing."
*
Hoshino Kiyoshi is a junior of this generation's Six Eyes and a devoted fan. After graduating from Jujutsu High, her pretty face landed her in the entertainment industry's biggest pit. Ever since, she's led a double life of failure as a third-rate Jujutsu Sorcerer and a D-list actress.
But she has money to burn.
Money can fund a fan's dream project, but it can't make her senior join the show. That's a problem.
He agreed.
Money can buy all kinds of novel ideas from Jujutsu Society, but it can't make her senior get involved. That's a problem.
He got involved.
But Gojo showing up on a dating show with his usual carefree attitude is definitely going to be a disaster. That's a big problem.
Huh...?
No, he doesn't care at all.
Hoshino Kiyoshi clung to Nanami's leg in the middle of the night, begging him to be her temporary manager.
She: "The cat is so cute. Can you really bear to leave him to fend for himself in show business?"
Nanami: "corporate-slave swearing"
But for the high salary, he put up with it.
Great, money works.

After the show aired, Hoshino Kiyoshi watched Gojo casually taking down monsters on screen and slapped the table in praise. "Look, this is my strongest senior! People feel safe just knowing he exists."
A staff member glanced at Gojo, the head of the Gojo Clan, showing off on screen. "Um... weren't we making a dating show?" (The lowest of the low.JPG)
She: "Isn't that in the main show? It's so sweet."
A best-friends bond between a height-difference couple, with pink sparks flying all the time;
A high-ranking executive at the SPW Foundation and his lovesick celebrity boyfriend, oozing chemistry;
A patient, steady, beautiful diver and a "social burden" passed out drunk at her feet...
The other groups handle the romance. Gojo-senpai and I handle the variety show. It's a dating show, so what's the problem?

When Satoru Gojo realized that the main footage of his dating show was all fighting, he slapped the table and yelled, "How did you edit this?! I'm going to get mad!"
Ridiculous! All his sweet interactions with his adorable junior had been cut!
Suguru, who loves watching the drama unfold, sent him a taunt:
"Hey, people promote dating shows with cute moments from the couples. You? A battle montage."
*An alternate-universe story, with some changes to the plot setup and timeline. A light, sweet, everyday comedy. The heroine has money to burn. I'm letting loose and having fun. In this setting, ordinary people are gradually learning that cursed spirits exist.
*The romance groups (tentative): Anna Xu, Nozaki-kun x Chiyo-chan, Iori x Chisa. There are forum posts, with separate forums for Jujutsu Society and ordinary people.
*The heroine and the cat have mutual crushes... probably.
