Shinchan: Chaos of Anime Multiverse

'Buy a phone?' Shinomiya Kaguya wasn't very interested. Because ever since she was young, she had never come into contact with such things. Clearly a youthful and beautiful girl, yet she knew absolutely nothing about electronics, just like an old person from a past era.

This also indirectly showed that Shinomiya Kaguya normally had no entertainment activities. Other than archery and tea ceremony, those traditional manners, there was nothing in particular she was interested in.

'If it's a club activity… would Shin-chan participate? If he did, this might be a good opportunity.'

Hayasaka Ai, beside her, thought for a moment and then looked at Kaguya and nodded.

"Young lady, we can rearrange the weekend's schedule. We absolutely have time to go buy you a brand-new smartphone. This will be your first step toward gaining friendship."

"If that's the case, then I'll trouble everyone."

Kaguya slightly bowed, her manner perfectly elegant. "Then, I'll take my leave for now. About the weekend, you can discuss it with Hayasaka."

After saying that, Kaguya left the Service Club with Hayasaka Ai.

"I didn't think the Shinomiya family's eldest daughter had it so rough. She even looks tired."

Watching Kaguya leave, Eriri couldn't help but sigh. Among all the young ladies, Eriri was definitely an odd one.

Her parents doted on her too much. Eriri had no pressure at all, she was even more childish than the average girl and had no scheming thoughts.

"Aren't you a young lady too, Eriri? Don't you have these kinds of worries?"

Kasumigaoka's family was also very warm, so she didn't know much about these big-family issues.

"Nope. Mom and Dad really love each other and treat me great. They don't ask anything from me. It's just… Mom always likes to tease me."

Looking at Eriri's happy expression, Yukino's heart felt a bit sour. That kind of family dynamic was something to envy. If only her parents could get along like that.

Yukino had never doubted the love between her parents, but that love had long been warped by reality. For the sake of the family, her mother had become the very person she once hated most.

Still, compared to Kaguya, it wasn't so bad. At least she still had a sister who cared about her.

"President Yukinoshita, you suddenly told me to become friends with President Shinomiya, that's asking a bit much, don't you think?"

Megumi looked troubled. Although she wasn't opposed to being friends with Kaguya, thinking about the Shinomiya family's background still made her uneasy.

"It's just trying to be friends. Even if you don't succeed, it's fine. I just really want to know, if Kato-senpai becomes friends with President Shinomiya, will your presence change? If not even that can change your presence, then this request might be too difficult."

"I get it, of course I do. But… how am I supposed to get along with someone like that?"

"You really don't have to worry, just think about what Shin-chan would do."

'When you don't know how to interact with rich young ladies like that, just think about what Shin-chan would do. You can't go wrong!'

'Think about what Shin-chan would do? Come to think of it, no matter who he faces, Shin-chan's attitude never really changes. That's something to admire.'

"Oh, right! What about that novel? I want to see it!"

Mentioning Shin-chan, Eriri suddenly remembered, wasn't Utaha writing a light novel based on her and Shin-chan's relationship?

She wanted to see her sweet love story with Shin-chan.

"You really leave me no choice… fine, I'll let you read it."

Utaha handed Eriri the manuscript she had put together. She had already submitted it to the editors at Fushikawa Publishing.

Because Fushikawa Publishing had been bought by a major company, they'd improved benefits for new writers. If she could place in this year's Newcomer Award, she'd get not only a huge cash prize, but also a full-scale promotional campaign. That was pretty enticing.

However, when she handed the manuscript to Eriri, Kasumigaoka's expression was a bit strange.

"By the way, Kasumigaoka-senpai, what's your novel about?"

Yukino was also interested in the novel, but since the manuscript was already in Eriri's hands, she could only ask Utaha directly.

"It's obviously about my love story with Shin-chan! Hahaha!"

Eriri answered for Kasumigaoka with a big grin. Her words immediately caught Yukino and Megumi's attention.

"What?"

"A love story?"

The two of them scooted over to get a look at the manuscript in Eriri's hands.

"Don't fight over it! Let's just read it together!"

Eriri still didn't realize that these two girls were her rivals. Nor did she realize that her words had already ignited the flames of war.

Next to them, Utaha's eyes were practically glowing. 'Fight! Start fighting already! I want to see blood flowing like a river!'

Unfortunately for Utaha, the three beautiful girls didn't fight. Instead, they sat down together and started reading the manuscript, drawn into the story.

As Eriri kept reading, something felt off. Sure, there was a blonde twin-tailed half-Japanese beauty in the story, but why did she feel like such a loser?

"Kasumigaoka!! You evil fat woman! Who the hell is this girl named Sayuka?!"

"Black stockings, great figure, long straight black hair! That's just you!!!"

Eriri finally exploded. Why couldn't she win even in a novel?! Wasn't this story based on her and Shin-chan? Why was there suddenly some new character like this?

"Eriri, calm down, okay? That girl named Rika, she's clearly based on you."

Seeing Eriri all worked up made Utaha feel super satisfied.

"And besides, this is just the beginning of the story. There'll be even more female characters appearing later on."

"Like a senpai with super low presence… or a beautiful neighbor with long black hair and a cold face."

Yukino, '???'

Megumi, '???'

"No! What I want is pure love! Do you even understand pure love?!" Eriri just couldn't accept it. Why couldn't she get a clean win, even in a light novel?

"And besides! This male lead is nothing like Shin-chan!"

Kasumigaoka didn't really know Shin-chan all that well, so the male lead she wrote didn't have a strong presence. Most of the novel focused on the subtle emotional changes between the girls.

"Setting all that aside, what do you guys think of the story?"

"It's definitely compelling… but that thing you said earlier about a cold-faced, long-black-haired neighbor… what's that about?"

Yukino wasn't happy. After all, the male lead Kasumigaoka wrote didn't resemble Shin-chan at all. Just the setup was similar, but personality-wise, it was nothing like the real Shin-chan.

"As long as the story's engaging, that's what matters. Light novels are made for the readers, aren't they?"

"As an apology, if there's a dinner for this weekend's club activity, how about I treat?"
