"This time, the cosplayers invited to the convention are all really high quality! Especially since Kitty-chan is among them—I came here just for Kitty-chan."
"May-chan is great too. Iya, whom May-chan cosplayed, is so adorable! If I can get a photo with May-chan, the trip will have been completely worthwhile! I could even brag about it in front of my friends."
"Yimei-chan is here too! The songs she covers always sound even better!"
"I heard that *** game discs will be sold at this convention. There are fewer than a hundred copies, so I hope I can grab one!"
The visitors around them eagerly discussed the guests who would be appearing shortly and various limited-edition goods... because they were about to enter.
"Yamashita, do you think... Teacher Rita and Teacher Shiina might come? Compared to those cosplayers, singers, and dancers, I'd rather meet the two teachers in real life. They're just so beautiful."
Sada, dressed in an Enma Ai cosplay costume, stood in front of Yamashita Tokiguchi, unable to suppress a flicker of anticipation. He had spent half a month's living expenses to have this costume custom-made because he loved Xiao Ai so much.
Likewise... he was extremely curious about the two teachers. But he had only ever seen photos of their real appearances online and had no idea what they were actually like in person.
"Don't get your hopes up. There hasn't been any official news, so they can't possibly show up. Unless the two teachers weren't invited and came to visit the convention on their own."
Yamashita Tokiguchi did not hold much hope for that idea, though he also wanted to meet the two teachers.
"All right!"
Hearing that, Sada had to admit that Yamashita Tokiguchi was right. There was practically no chance!
Second by second, time
