"Senior Butterfly is so handsome!"

"Senior, I love you!"

"Nakamura-kun---!"

The crowd was in chaos, but Nakamura Cho remained looking down at Uesugi Yuichi.

Amidst the commotion, she smiled, pointed at Uesugi Yuichi, and shouted:

"Xiongyi, you blockhead, listen up! This song is specially written for you!"

"Cherish this sixteen-year relationship!"

"---Small Love Song!"

P. S. 1: It should be available for purchase this Friday. Whether you're a regular reader or not, remember to subscribe and support it! (I'll repeat this to myself every day before it's available for purchase to reinforce my belief.)

PS2: Ryza is finally coming out... My feelings are really complicated. As a long-time fan of the series, having gotten into it from the Eternal Mana series, I never expected that this series would become so popular because of the chubby legs.

Ten years of Alchemy went unnoticed, but one day, those fleshy legs became known to the world (laughing and crying). But those legs are really... time to go to work.

Okay, actually I'm here to recommend it.

Alchemy Ryza about to be released, let's go! Don't stop! (Referring to getting hooked)

Section 93, Chapter 81: Popularity Soars

The song that replaced the ending theme started playing, and the camera zoomed in on Nakamura Cho's hands as she nimbly played the electric guitar.

The background music playing was a drum and bass track she recorded herself.

The level of detail in this painting is clearly extraordinary.

As the song played, the production staff list appeared one by one.

Nakamura Cho's singing voice is so sincere:

"The only one in the vast universe,"

In the vast world of our blue planet,

It reminded me of my little love.

This is for you on this little island...

Viewers in front of their televisions were all captivated by the emotions depicted in the song.

This song was unusual from the very beginning.

Even though the universe, the earth, and the world are vast, this feeling of mine is only meant for you who live on this island...

Nakamura Cho sang her heart out on stage, her emotions practically overflowing.

Uesugi Yuichi was dumbfounded.

So... did Die... like me?

He recalled his past interactions with Nakamura Cho, still believing that Cho had always considered him a good brother...

Regardless of what Uesugi Yuichi thought, the singing continued.

When I met you,

The number of letters expressing longing increased day by day.

Unconsciously, the two influenced each other.

Sometimes intense,

Sometimes I feel sad.

As the song played, images began to flash by.

Scenes of the two playing together since they were babies.

A scene of supporting each other as they grow, running together towards their dreams.

There are happy times, and naturally there are sad times.

But as long as you're here...

"A gentle song,"

Echoing to the distant horizon,

Change the world---

This relationship changed everything for them.

Because of Uesugi Yuichi, Nakamura Cho was able to move towards her dream, because she knew that there was one person in this world, and only one person, who would unconditionally support everything she did.

Because of Nakamura Cho, Uesugi Yuichi was able to move towards his dream, because he knew that she was the only one in the world who would unconditionally believe in him and encourage him when he was insecure countless times.

In the noisy auditorium, Nakamura Cho and Uesugi Yuichi's eyes met.

"The people who are important to you,"

It means being able to stay by your side forever.

Nakamura Cho's smile was radiant, utterly captivating.

"But right now, what I most want to give you is..."

It's this love song.

ほら---

ほら- --

ほら---

Hibiki's love song---!"

The atmosphere was very lively, and when Nakamura Cho repeatedly sang "hora," all the students sang along.

They were still screaming even after Nakamura Cho finished singing.

But when they noticed Nakamura Cho and Uesugi Yuichi exchanging glances, they all fell silent to watch the show unfold.

Amidst the intense attention of the crowd, Nakamura Cho ripped off the microphone, pointed at Uesugi Yuichi with her right hand, and shouted:

"Yuichi, I like you!"

I've liked you since I was a child!

So---be my boyfriend!

"You have a problem with that?"

She wasn't shy at all; she was straightforward, brave, and direct.

Passionate and unrestrained

Super straight shot!

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!"

"Nakamura-senpai----!"

"Oh no! My Uesugi-kun... but I support you!"

"My junior, Nakamura... Damn it, how can I object in this situation!"

"Aaaaaaah!"

The crowd kept shouting something, and some people were even screaming meaninglessly.

But.

None of this could affect the two people at the center.

Uesugi Yuichi's surprise subsided; he felt relieved.

He smiled, nodded, and mustered his courage to say loudly, "From now on, I look forward to your guidance!"

"Yeah!"

Nakamura Cho cheered, put down her guitar, took two running steps, and then leaped off the stage.

"Whoa!"

Uesugi Yuichi difficulty, only to be tackled to the ground by her.

The two hugged each other and burst into laughter.

The people around them were laughing too.

Laughter and love filled the whole world...

---That's how it should be.

But at the very end, the mischievous Inoue Hikoo gave a shot of the corner.

There, Yuzuki Sasaki leaned against the wall.

She covered her face.

Long ago...

She burst into tears.

Episode 19 of Alien Baby Hikari-chan.

Shuya was silent for a while, then let out a long breath.

The scholar-officials applauded.

In this episode, they did their best in terms of plot, music, and animation.

Inoue Hikoo is showing signs of entering a state of post-coital reflection.

He sat listlessly in the chair, wanting nothing more than to rest for a day... but that was, of course, impossible.

The rest of the production is still pending.

Although I worked quite a bit during the week of airing the recap episodes, there's still a lot to do...

Let's leave aside the company's internal affairs for now.

The latest episode featuring the Alien Baby Hikari-chan has undoubtedly caused quite a stir.

The time travel technique is somewhat novel, and new characters and songs appear.

Two words appeared most frequently during the discussion.

Nakamura Cho.

Small Love Song.

The character Nakamura Cho, with her distinctive personality, became incredibly popular upon her debut.

At the end, I sang only half of the song Small Love Song, and it immediately became popular.

However, Inoue Hikoo has no plans to release the CD yet, so people can only wait anxiously.

Nakamura Cho's popularity soared exponentially, overshadowing all the main characters for a time.

Inoue Hikoo had anticipated this, and the new merchandise was released on time and sold very well.

Pre-orders for the Alien Baby Hikari-chan DVD have surged again.

Thanks to Nakamura Cho's sudden rise to fame, Hanazawa Sakura's popularity also soared, and she became popular again.

The voice acting industry really depends on luck. If you're lucky enough to land a good role in a good anime, and you're also quite talented, it's easy for your career to take off.

It would be even better if the voice actor were good-looking.

Hanazawa Sakura excels in all of these aspects.
