BREAK

Naruto stood outside the school gates, talking to Ririsa and Mikari, both of whom were buzzing with excitement after getting approval to reopen the Manga Club.

"I can't wait for tomorrow to come!" Ririsa said, beaming with enthusiasm before looking down with a sad smile. "It's been a month since the Manga Club was shut down after the Student Council President investigated that incident..."

An ear twitched hearing the words Manga Club when the owner, a blonde-haired gal with an ombré transition to pinkish-red or citrus orange at the tips, walked toward the gates.

"But it's also your fault, Ririsa," Mikari added, causing the pink-haired girl to flinch. "You are too much of an airhead. You undressed yourself the first time you met senpai, even allowing him to touch your chest and even take a really risky picture of your nether region from behind!"

"I-I'm sorry...it's just...I didn't believe everybody that loves Liliel would become like this..." Ririsa said with a small voice.

Mikari groaned. "Of course he will! You dressing up as his most favorite character then posed for him, allowing him to take underboob shots, pantyshot even a closeup one, no wonder he'll snap. He wouldn't want anyone to see his Liliel seen that way by other people!"

"B-But, I didn't put the risky ones in my Cosroms..." (Cosplay DVD)

"E-eh? You didn't?" Mikari asked, getting a nod from Ririsa.

"I'm still under 18...I really want to go full ecchi but I'm still underage..."

"Ahem!" Naruto cleared his throat, surprising the two girls. "Seems like you two are having fun." He deadpanned as the girls blushed, now realizing how open they were talking. "Anyway, hopefully I can be a good replacement in his place." The Uzumaki finished, causing the two girls to widen their eyes.

"Wait! Who said you're his replacement!?" Mikari asked, a bit too loudly.

Naruto deadpanned.

"Duh, you're in need of a third person to officially reopen the manga club and I'm only joining since Hanyuu-sensei's selling speech was really good." He shrugged before turning to Ririsa, ignoring their downtrodden look. "Speaking of which, I'm not cut out to be the club president, so that's all on you, Amano."

Ririsa's eyes widened in surprise. "Me? Really, senpai?!"

"Yup. While I do enjoy reading manga and watching anime, my knowledge doesn't hold a candle to yours or Tachibana's—"

"Mikari!" Mikari cut in, her voice sharp, causing both Naruto and Ririsa to blink in surprise. "Call me Mikari or Mikarin, senpai! And you're not Okumura-senpai's replacement!"

Naruto blinked before shrugging. "Sure, whatever you said. That makes it easier for me. Using your last name is a bit mouthful anyway."

"Then, you can call me Ririsa too, senpai!" Amano chirped in.

Naruto teased, "Nah, I'll call you Eggplant-chan."

"Ah! It's because of my hair and glasses, isn't it!?" Ririsa pouted, her face turning slightly pink as Naruto and Mikari burst into laughter, the latter knowing what Naruto referenced her to.

Some of the boys watching from a distance glared in envy at the casual banter Naruto had with the girls, while nearby girls exchanged glances, equally jealous of the two first-years' easygoing banter with him.
