Chapter 5

On Thursday I stayed home from school. It wasn’t for battle preparations, but for a reason. childhood: I didn’t want to go to a school full of rumors.

Oddly enough, Kondou didn’t come to wake me up either. He’s so fickle.

I also stayed home during the day on Friday. I was bored and thought about playing shiritori with Harakiritora, but when he said “let’s play with yuri restrictions,” I threw him in the closet. I won’t reveal secrets even if my opponent is a stuffed animal.

And so night fell.

They say it’s the hour of the dead ox, but in modern society, where the light shines twenty-four hours a day, Even plants don’t have time to sleep. I have to go out like this too.

On my way to Seitetsu Academy, I ran into Akane. She had already become a Kämpfer. “Since it’s nighttime, we can let loose without holding back,” Akane said, biting into a Pocky and laughing. malice.

—You told me this time. Thanks to that, I can’t watch midnight anime. I’ll send you to the other world. to relieve my bad mood.

After transforming, this girl tries to fight for anything. If I could watch the anime, I would find another reason to fight.

—Natsuru, aren’t you going to transform?

—Oh? … Now that you mention it, that’s true.

Normally, when there’s a Kämpfer nearby, I transform reflexively. But this time it wasn’t like that. —Why is that?

—Change quickly.

—Don’t rush me. It’s not up to me.

—If you don’t change at school, I’ll abandon you.

Then I’ll go home.

Kampfer – Volume 2

Seitetsu Academy at night is something of a hidden place. During the day, security is strict, but He relaxes at night. There aren’t many valuables to steal, that’s why. Of course, the important areas They are securely locked.

That said, the doors to the women’s section were closed to prevent couples from doing anything inappropriate. inappropriate elements in the enclosure. A kind of iron barricade gave a feeling of silent intimidation. —Should we break it?

Akane, as always, said impulsive things.

—Either way, they’ll realize it.

—So, what do we do?

—We’ll sneak in.

If we used our ingenuity, we could overcome it somehow. I decided to go first.

—Go quickly. If a police officer comes, I’ll warn you.

—Will you just give a heads-up?

—Relax. I’ll disappear.

It’s not very useful.

I used the rope I’d brought and managed to get through the door. I slipped twice in the process, and Akane laume, pointing at me.

Akane entered more easily than I did and landed on the grounds of Seitetsu Academy. The digital wristwatch read eleven and two minutes past. I glanced around.

—It’s the first time I’ve come at night, but it’s quite dark.

“It’s to save electricity.” That’s what someone from the student council said.

—It’s dangerous. Although it benefits us.

—Then there’s no reason to complain.

Kampfer – Volume 2

163

Since I’ve had to come to the women’s section several times, even I know the inside. For now, I’ve walked towards the back.

—Natsuru, where is the enemy waiting for us?

—It wasn’t written to that extent.

—Now that you mention it, that’s true. So, the moment we walk in, does the fight start? -Probably…

We proceed with caution. We approach the building housing the first-year students of the women’s section. Suddenly, there was a sharp noise.

Since it was midnight and the place was deserted, it echoed loudly. It wasn’t the wind. Someone is here. —… It has appeared.

Akane waved her arm. A thick military pistol appeared. Then she made a gesture as if to shoo away a dog.

—Natsuru, step back a little.

-Because?

—Since you haven’t transformed, you’re useless. You’re in the way.

Damn it. But since she was right, I distanced myself from Akane.

She, in attack dog mode, cautiously surveyed her surroundings. I looked too, but aside from the noise Before, there was nothing else.

-Where is…?

Could that be the bush in the background on the right? The noise earlier sounded like leaves rubbing together.Probably. Akane seemed to think the same, as she was focused in that direction.

The enclosure was dimly lit. From a distance, nothing could be distinguished. Although it wasn’t completely dark because the stars shone in the sky, twinkling silently above

our heads.

Suddenly, the starlight disappeared.

Kampfer – Volume 2

164

I thought it was a cloud, but it wasn’t. Something had turned into a shadow and disappeared. -… Above!

I yelled at Akane. The next moment, something landed between us.

A slender figure in the sailor uniform of Seitetsu Academy. Enveloped in a murderous atmosphere and gun skills.

The right armband glows red. It’s an enemy Kämpfer.

-Damned!

Akane turns around. At the same time, she fires.

The enemy woman throws herself to the side. I throw myself to the ground. It would be fatal if a stray bullet hit The gunshots continue repeatedly. Akane is a gunpowder smoke maniac, always excited. Every time she fires a shot. She must be full of adrenaline right now.

Enemy counterattack. Not as skilled as Akane, but he tries to shoot to stop ours.

movements.

Suddenly, he looks at me.

—Ah!

Our eyes meet. She kicks the ground and lunges towards me.

I get up quickly and try to escape hastily, but she’s faster. The Kämpfer are agile. when they transform.

He caught up with me quickly. He grabbed me by the neck and forced me to look straight ahead. His gaze, as sharp as before, was different from Akane’s; rather, he had the face of a Kämpfer-type rabid dog.

—…Haven’t you transformed yet?

The barrel of his gun was pointed directly at me.

—What are you going to do?

Kampfer – Volume 2

165

—… Yes. That’s why I’ll let you pass.

I’m sorry, but without weapons or anything, I’m worse than a normal high school student. -… No.

The enemy Kämpfer said coldly with a firm hand.

—It doesn’t matter if you’ve transformed or not.

—It’s-… Wait.

I saw him pull the trigger and quickly spoke.

—You already said you didn’t have time to fight again.

—So what about that?

—Why are you trying to defeat me now, and with a challenge no less, before I transform? It’s completely absurd. I was already lamenting my own misfortune.

—Well, that…

Surprisingly, she blushed.

-… What’s happening?

-Be quiet!

The enemy pushed me with all his might.

—The situation has changed. I will not forgive you. Prepare yourself!

—Wait, wait! At least let me ask you the reason. Is it for revenge against Shizuku? —That will be resolved later.

That one? Is this woman calling Shizuku “that one”? Why?

For just a brief moment, that question crossed my mind. But a canyon as black as night, fitting for the At midnight, he pointed the gun at me again.

—Hey, hey, stop!

Kampfer – Volume 2

166

Kampfer – Volume 2

167

—Do not beg for your life before the enemy.

—No, it would be problematic if you didn’t stop.

From even further behind the enemy, Akane’s authoritarian voice could be heard.

“Even if he’s not trustworthy, he’s my partner. Put your weapon down.”

Akane’s revolver was pointed directly at the enemy’s head. If she tried to turn the weapon away… Before Akane could fire, the firing pin would fall.

—…

—I don’t intend to forgive you if you suddenly go silent.

The woman seemed to give up and loosened her grip on the gun.

Suddenly, another gun appeared in his left hand.

—Two pistols…!

The enemy woman didn’t lower the weapon pointed at me, and with her other hand she pointed it at Akane. Sh

simultaneously.

—Ah!

—Oh!

I was the first. Akane was the second. The bullet grazed my head and deflected Akane’s gun. It seems The woman was also surprised, and her shot narrowly missed. Even so, the accuracy of her shots was… terrifying.

Akane twisted and with her left leg flung the rabid dog woman off her shoulder. One of her The pistols fell to the ground.

—Let’s escape!

The girl screamed angrily. I ran without looking back and soon found myself next to Akane. —Damn, I didn’t expect to be facing two guns.

—Can you only use one?

Kampfer – Volume 2

168

—Usually one is enough!

Thinking about it, Shizuku also used two daggers. Sometimes things are like that.

We rushed inside the freshman building. The door was locked, but Akane blew it open. lock and hinges.

We heard the enemy woman running towards us from behind. Since the door didn’t serve as a shield, We decided to go up to the second floor.

The girls’ section building has three floors. Each floor has only four classrooms. Furthermore, only two are in uof them regularly; the other two are used as changing rooms—what a luxurious story! In contrast, in the buildinFor the boys, all the classes are crammed into an old building.

For a moment, I turned my attention back.

—He’s following us.

—This is getting ugly.

We went into a nearby classroom. It was room 1-3. I think I’ve heard something about this before. The arrangement of the desks and chairs wasn’t very different from what it was in my classroom, 2-4. I supposIt feels a bit childish here, probably because there are younger people.

I crouched down and hid in a dark corner where I couldn’t see well.

Just as I ducked, the enemy came up to the second floor. He had stopped running and was now walking. There was a creak as he opened the sliding door. He was checking each classroom one by one. —…Why are you hiding?

I told him.

—With your skills, couldn’t you handle it alone?

—I can’t trust you!

Akane murmured softly.

—You have twice the firepower. If you had your magic, you could manage either way, but You’re still a man.

Kampfer – Volume 2

169

—I don’t care about that.

That’s fine, but I don’t understand why I can’t transform.

—Don’t make any noise. He’ll find us.

—Damn, I feel like shooting you in the head first.

You were the one who said you would abandon me if I didn’t transform immediately. But it seems Akane has no intention of leaving me, since she didn’t tell me to go anywhere. No I don’t understand this reason either.

—Don’t come this way.

—He’ll come, for sure.

Akane was checking her own gun.

—Hey, Natsuru, why don’t you use that hand like last time?

-What are you talking about?

—You used the spray bottle, didn’t you?

When we fought Shizuku, it was an improvised tactic. I used a large amount of water to slow down the movement of his dagger.

—You can scare her with that.

—I don’t have a lighter.

Without a spark, it’s pointless. Now I’m completely disarmed, even without my wallet. Akane clicked her tongue in an obvious way.

-Useless.

-I’m sorry.

“What can you do? If he comes in, I’ll shoot. If I hit him, you’ll go to hell.” The fierce woman pointed her gun towards the entrance.

Kampfer – Volume 2

A while passed without anything happening. The silence dragged on longer than waiting for ramen to cook. instant.

The door moved slightly.

—Die!

Akane fired a shot. Her intention was to pierce the door completely. There was no one around. of reserve. With a tremendous roar, the freshman classroom became something like a machine of make popcorn.

The door was riddled with holes, wobbled, and finally fell.

Then, silence reigned once more.

—Is she dead?

-No…

I approached cautiously, nervously glancing around. Although it was dark and I could barely see, Had someone fallen over there? I squinted and slowly crawled forward.

In the hallway, there were only doors.

—He’s not here!

At that moment, a girl in a sailor uniform jumped towards me. She was holding two pistols. Akane fired. The woman crouched down, firing with one hand while the other pointed at me. What situation! And I’m unarmed.

I acted quickly, kicking the desk to use it as a makeshift shield. I couldn’t stop the bullets, But it served as a visual obstruction. Dictionaries and books tumbled down from inside the desk. Text and printed sheets. Upon closer inspection of the printed sheets, “Mikoto Kondou” was written on them. which class did he/she belong to?

—Come out, Natsuru!

Akane fired as she moved down the corridor. I hurried to follow her.

But before that, the enemy woman stood in our way.

Kampfer – Volume 2

171

This is bad. She had separated Akane and me from the beginning. She probably had us in her sights. From the beginning. That’s why he had limited himself to just shooting and returning fire. —Hey, Natsuru!

Akane screamed, turning around.

“Don’t move,” the fierce woman warned me and me at the same time. However, both guns were pointing at me.

—I won’t let you escape.

A low, terrifying voice echoed. Oh, it sounds like it’s coming straight from hell! —I’ll send you to the afterlife… Prepare yourself.

I couldn’t let that happen. I raised both hands above my head, trying to prolong my life. even if it was just a little.

—Please don’t shoot me. I’m unarmed.

-It doesn’t matter.

—No, it does matter to me. Why are you trying to kill only me?

—Because I hate you.

He said it clearly.

In the hallway, Akane shouted, “I can’t hear what they’re saying!” It seems the enemies aren’t around. willing to be so helpful.

I have no idea why she hates me. I don’t owe any money, and I haven’t bullied anyone. A week ago, I gave herto a stray dog; that should be a good deed.

—No, you should know.

The woman said.

—Because of you, someone was hurt. Let me make it up to them.

—Huh? Did I do something?

Kampfer – Volume 2

172

—Yes. That person was in shock.

The woman’s gaze became even more severe and she clenched her teeth tightly. —Because you said you had a boy you liked, Kaede-san got hurt… You!

…Huh?

—Kaede Sakura got hurt because of that!

-That?

—What on earth is going on here? Why is this woman yelling about Sakura-san? To my surprise, the woman in front of me had tears in her eyes.

—Kaede-san loves you. And yet, you… prefer a man… Don’t you realize how much you hurt her…? —Hey hey, wait a minute, I don’t understand any of this! Why are you-…?

—I’ll investigate everything concerning the person you like!

Hmm… so, is this woman in love with Sakura-san?

Her arm was trembling. It was probably from anger. Her face was tense, and she was staring at me like a

Demon mask. It’s incredible how humans can get so angry at others and not just at themselves. same.

From my point of view, this is completely unfair.

—Kaede-san is a wonderful person. If she were happy, I would be content. That’s why I had no intention I can’t say anything about you. But seeing her so upset and hurt like this is unbearable for me. —You should be over that by now.

—Although I’ve tried to hide it and act cheerful, there are still wounds in my heart. I can’t bear it. further!

—Hold on a little longer!

—I wish you would disappear!

—Don’t talk nonsense!

Kampfer – Volume 2

173

Two cannons are pointed. So enraged that she seems to have forgotten even to fire. —Do you have the right to make Kaede-san unhappy… or to have Kaede-san with you? “It’s not that I want to make her unhappy. Really!”

Even I get angry at those who hurt Sakura-san. But in this case, it’s more like a accident.

I thought about escaping stealthily, but there’s no chance. Even the slightest tremor made us… The cannons will react.

—Don’t run away. If you do… I’ll kill your true love.

—Who the hell is that…?

—Don’t pretend. That one in the hallway.

-It just can’t be!

Akane has nothing to do with this. I have no interest in a furious woman like her. Just to be a little Close, what do you think?

The enemy Kämpfer seems to harbor a deep resentment towards me. He ignored my attempts to

explanation, almost as if he were shouting.

—This is where I defeat you…

She aligned the barrel of her gun with my forehead.

—That’s how I’ll free Kaede’s heart… Shizuku will come later.

That?

A slight question that crossed my mind disappeared when I saw the tremor in the finger on the trigger. Wait, this is really serious!

Suddenly, the palm of my hand felt warm.

Well, not exactly the hand. It was near the wrist. And it wasn’t that it was hot. Rather, it felt like as if I were filling myself with strength. Gradually, that feeling of fullness increased. It was at the same time that the enemy pulled the trigger and I forcefully thrust my wrist forward.  Kampfer – Volume 2

174

Inside the hall, flashes and loud noises echoed.

When the light faded, I had transformed into Kämpfer.

It wasn’t difficult. I just tried to transform into Kämpfer. Then I activated my magic and deflected the bullets. With just that, I had learned to transform myself on my own.

—Natsuru, duck!

Akane screamed. Immediately afterward, gunshots sliced ■■through the air. Each one struck the shoulders of enemy.

She gritted her teeth and resisted. Just when she seemed to be backing down a little, she suddenly started runI threw a fireball. She didn’t fight back and ran to the window. She crossed her arms and lunged at the glass.

—He’s escaping!

Akane screamed. There was a sound of impact. My fireball, which had reduced its power. By a hair, the The figure of the enemy disappeared into the night courtyard… it was gone.

She didn’t fall outside, but on this side of the window. She fainted from the impact of the fireball. The chain became entangled around her ankle, literally pulling her down. That’s why she couldn’t escape. I remember this chain. The swordsman. Expert in the use of chain daggers.

—Letting her go will be problematic later, won’t it?

At the entrance to the hall, Shizuku, the student council president, muttered that way. Akane and I didn’t let our guard down at all. Rather, we increased our vigilance and faced Shizuku.

The student council president’s lips curled slightly.

—Please, don’t look so scared. I have no intention of fighting.

—What have you come here to do?

Kampfer – Volume 2

175

Akane pointed her gun.

—I have business to discuss with that girl.

He approached the girl lying unconscious on the floor. He turned her onto her back. —Look closely. His transformation will unravel.

The girl’s figure was enveloped in a dim light. Her face slowly began to change.

-This…

—Don’t you remember her?

I’ve seen her two or three times before. She was that freshman standing outside the council office. student. I think his name was Kazuhara.

—She’s a useful girl for many things. She always did exactly what she was told, but it’s a shame. —She’s your ally, right?

I asked Shizuku. This girl is a Kämpfer with a red armband.

—That’s right. But it seems she wasn’t happy with what I was doing. She was watching me and reporting back. All the time. It was a nuisance.

—Reporting? To whom?

—To the moderators.

I remained silent. I was responsible for converting Kämpfer without even asking him to. —That’s why I wanted him to withdraw. But I can’t defeat my allies, can I? So I asked them for help. you.

—Nobody asked me to.

Akane said.

—The result is the same.

—Ah, I see. Probably for forcing Natsuru to join the female section and spreading strange rumors. Is that why?

Kampfer – Volume 2

176

—Stating that could cause problems.

—The fact that female Natsuru likes male Natsuru could also make that idiot Kaede…

Shake it and bring it out. Isn’t that right?

—Having student council officers who are gay, too. I’ve turned a blind eye to that, at least. a bit.

Shizuku seemed determined not to commit to her statements.

She pulled the unconscious girl down and hoisted her onto her shoulders. What strength she has. —Thank you very much. I’ll take care of the rest here.

I asked:

—What will happen to that girl?

Kampfer – Volume 2

177

Kampfer – Volume 2

178

—He will live.

—What are we going to do now?

—… By the way, you didn’t know what was going to happen to the Kämpfer he lost, did you? —Aah.

—She’s going to disappear from this world. Beautifully.

Both Akane and I remained silent.

Shizuku’s voice wasn’t joking. It was the truth. Could the defeated Kämpfer no longer exist? What a disaster. To disappear without understanding what we fought for. Is it just luck that I’m here? Shizuku changed her tone of voice slightly.

—By the way, Senou-kun. From now on, you’ll be in the girls’ section, okay? -What are you saying?

—You don’t need to return your student ID.

The student council president calmly left the classroom, still carrying the girl. I collapsed, exhausted, and sat down on the floor.

—Ugh… They made me work.

From being taken to the women’s section to being shaken by strange rumors and forced to fight, everything She was following Shizuku’s plan. She really has a nerve, no doubt about it.

“That’s why you can’t trust the office of president. I’ve hated that damn woman for a long time.” Akane also spat out those words. Leaving aside the position, I also agree with the lack of trust in Shizuku. Just because we didn’t fight this time doesn’t mean we can’t fall into a trap. horrible if we follow their orders to the letter.

—Hey, haven’t you managed to transform yourself?

Akane said. I looked at my own right arm. I felt as if the bracelet’s saturation had changed. slightly.

Kampfer – Volume 2

179

-Maybe.

—You won’t know that way. Try to figure it out yourself.

Wanting to return to normal, I applied a little force to my arm.

I was immediately enveloped in light, and became a man again.

—You can do it, okay?

-It’s true.

Involuntarily, I found myself gazing deeply at my own body. This was the figure of a Man, without a doubt. I had achieved it of my own free will.

—You did it.

—I’m happy, but… will I be able to master it so quickly?

—You’re much faster than me.

Harakiritora mentioned it, but normally you’re supposed to need experience for this. Shouldn’t it? Have I also gained more experience?

Okay, fine. The problem of transforming against my will has been solved. Now I can sleep. quiet, especially during classes.

I felt relieved and stood up.

—One of my problems is gone.

—That’s good for you. But I bet your rumors haven’t disappeared at all.

—Ah…

—You’re a lesbian and you also like boys, right?

-Yeah…

I felt dizzy and fell back again.

The following week.

On Monday morning, it wasn’t Kondou who visited my house, but Akane. Apparently, she had been passing thrfirst-year building of the female section on Sunday while I was in the library.

—Nothing strange has happened there.

And she informed me.

—As the president said, there are no signs of combat.

Shizuku always keeps these kinds of promises. It’s unsettling that we don’t know how she resolved it. —And Natsuru-san?

—I tried it several times. It worked well.

I was able to complete the transformation entirely at my own pace. It’s still too early to say what would happen There were other Kämpfers.

—I was doing it in front of the mirror.

Harakiritora said something unnecessary.

—She turns into a girl over and over again, nodding. Natsuru-san is a narcissist too, isn’t he? I grabbed Harakiritora and threw him in the trash can, closing the lid with a magazine. Now it doesn’t matter whIt will not be heard.

Noises were heard at the entrance.

—Natsuru, let’s go to school.

It was Kondou. He was coming upstairs again without permission. The bedroom door burst open. —Have you woken up? … Ah, Akane-chan. We meet here a lot, don’t we?

—… Y-Yes, it seems so.

Although slightly, Akane seemed tense. Kondou didn’t seem to mind.

Kampfer – Volume 2

181

—I’m going to prepare something, so eat quickly.

—I’ve already eaten. Akane-chan prepared my food.

Probably feeling bad about coming empty-handed, Kondou brought the ingredients. His culinary skills Akane’s were no less than Kondou’s, and the food was exceptionally delicious.

Kondou looked surprised. Akane lowered her head apologetically and murmured “I’m sorry…” under her breath—… W-Well, that’s fine. If someone else can cook, I’ll be happy not to have to do it myself.

—If you don’t come to my house in the morning, you could sleep in longer, you know? —Y-yes, that’s true. I could sleep more.

As he said this, he nodded several times.

Three people decided to go to school together. Due to the strict security at the school gate Initially it’s different, in the end they separate along the way, but oh well, it doesn’t matter much. The weather was cloudy. Better than rain. Although I had one worry that’s gone now, so I can start to accept the weather.

—Natsuru-san, do you know…?

Kondou began to speak.

—You’re really popular, aren’t you?

—Huh? What are you talking about?

—Girls really find you attractive.

She said it without thinking. Talking nonsense as usual. Akane also seemed surprised.

—I’ve known you since you were little, but I never thought you’d become such a popular guy. —I am not.

—It’s happening. A stunning beauty was interested. That person who’s in fashion now. Doesn’t that refer to me, as a woman?

Kampfer – Volume 2

182

I wouldn’t call that being popular. At best, it’s an act of narcissistic self-admiration. It’s frustrating, isn’t it? to be able to communicate it.

Kondou sighed.

—I thought I was the only one interested in you…

—Exactly. You’re the only one who does such peculiar things as trying to wake me up every morning. You come to my side with the same feeling as seeing animals in a zoo. Don’t treat people as if they were rare species.

—…Besides, now I even have competition for meals.

Glancing sideways at Akane, the shy library committee member shrank back a little. —And besides, this Sakura-san, right?

-I’m sorry.

These past few days I’ve faced several problems, but my feelings for Sakura-san haven’t changed. I live for her.

—It doesn’t change much, does it? She really only sees you as a friend.

—It doesn’t matter. Someday he’ll understand.

—Lately there have also been rumors that she has found someone she likes.

That’s me. A girl.

Sakura-san is still madly in love with me as a woman, but she has no interest in me as a man. But I don’t care. I believe things will eventually change. Although I was hurt because of Shizuku’s plan, It seems I’ve gotten over that. I think there will eventually be a change. Although I was hurt because of the plan

Shizuku.

In general, it should be obvious that it’s strange for me, as a woman, to like myself as a man when I am calm. As a woman, I am on medical leave and a sudden presence. There is no real connection. with me as a man. I hoped Sakura-san would think about this again. The same goes for Kondou. It’s time for Seitetsu Academy to open. The number of students is also increasing. —Well, Natsuru-san, it’s time…

Kampfer – Volume 2

183

—See you, popular kid.

—I’m not a popular guy.

I waved to them as they walked towards the door of the girls’ section of the school, but their gesture He stopped halfway.

This was because a student came running towards us.

And that girl was Sakura-san. She headed towards me and walked straight towards me.

It stopped right in front of me.

She was staring at me. I felt nervous.

What could it be? A confession? There was a similar situation before, but this time it’s different. Akane and Kolooking, and there are other students too.

She inhaled gently.

—Natsuru-san…

—Y-Yes…

—That person belongs to me. I won’t lose!

And then he turned his back and left.

This is the last straw.

Without a doubt, the worst thing this century has been.

My mouth opened wide and I couldn’t move from the spot for a while.

Author’s Words

I’m in Tsukiji. This is the second consecutive volume of Kämpfer. Hooray!

Last time, from the very first line of the text, Natsuru-kun turned into a girl, and this time too he did. She looks perfectly like a girl. Plus, there’s an added bonus: you never know when she’s going to transform. PBecoming a girl whenever you want isn’t something you can enjoy so easily. Hahaha! Our protagonist has been even more unlucky this time than before. First, an environment that is always Different. Then, strange classmates in a strange class. Enemies plotting to bring him down. The The student council president’s intermittent shadow. A classmate who’s not thinking about anything. It’s not yetEnough, right? We should make him take on some debt too.

I don’t think much about happiness. It’s okay because I’m popular. That’s enough.

So, as I mentioned in the previous afterword that I wanted to increase the number of classmates, I did exactly that. From the female perspective. There aren’t any specific models, but I borrowed a little from m

Friends. During my high school years, there weren’t people as strange as them. To say there were people Close is also a strange story. Talking about money, it felt similar to the main text.

I like to blend the characteristics of people I know into the characters I create. It’s a proportion of One to ten compared to imagination, but still, that makes a big difference. Gestures without Thinking and using somewhat peculiar names makes them feel more familiar. Humans seem to be without personality, but in reality each one is completely different, seriously.

Of course, there was never anyone who said, “I suddenly realized I’d become a woman.” But there were Men who liked skirts. Of course, to wear them. That person preferred to wear skirts even In her daily life, she would sometimes say things like, “Today I’m wearing my favorite skirt.” By the way, I don’t He was Scottish. Someday I also want Natsuru to say something like, “The skirt I bought yesterday has…” “Disappeared!” Don’t you think a skirt would suit her?

See you again.
