It’s not about gender discrimination, but my pride is totally wounded, man.” “Meow.” The batting cage showdown ended with me hitting nineteen out of twenty-five pitches, while Kirishima hit twenty.

Mei-chan only by chance, and Risa only ended up as my game voice chat partner because it happened to be me. It could have been anyone else, right?” “Chance… I suppose you could call it that.

Using that as reference, I compiled my own thoughts and submitted them to a reliable senior for now. Then I was told, “I hate minute-by-minute schedules, Irie-san,” so I … Read more
