Finally here?
You're late, you know.
Uh... Kashiwazaki was it?
Call me Sena.
You call that witch by her first name too, right?
If you use my last name, then it's like you get along better with her than me.
Alright...
S-Sena...
Neighbors Club activities begin now.
Hey, Mikazu—
It's "Yozora"!
Yozora...
What do you mean by club activities?
I mean, making friends isn't as simple as—
To make friends, you need games!
まだまだずっとぎゅっとはじけてる

どうだいどうだいそこんとこ

How's that? How's that? You get one word
That only works when you're a kid...
You're behind the times, Kodaka.
This is what's mainstream these days.
PlayingStates Portable.
A PSP?
My sister has one too.
I went to a family restaurant alone yesterday—
Who goes alone to a family restaurant??
Shut up!
Behind me there were 4 high schoolers playing this game together.
Oh, Monster Hunter.
You've played it?
It's an action game set in a fantasy world where you hunt monsters.
You can play this came in co-op mode with other people and hunt monsters together.
You're supposed to rely on each other, so playing it like that helps deepens your friendships.
You can also trade items, so there are lots of opportunities to talk to each other.
So basically, if we practice at this game,
we can get lots of items and make friends that way!
Hey—
Don't touch it with your greasy fingers.
My fingers aren't greasy!
Are you even listening to me?
Quiet, you greasy Meat.
So, everyone is to bring their PSP and Monster Hunter next Monday.
Okay...
And so, the following Monday...
Did you learn the basics of how to play?
Yeah.
Yes. I was pretty busy, but I found time to play a bit.
That said, in the end games like this are really for kids.
What are your game ranks?
I'm still rank 1.
I have a hard time beating anything.
I'm rank 3.
Rank 3? Wow...
I'm rank 6.
6??
Isn't that the highest rank?
It looks like I'm a genius gamer, too.
Just how perfect can I be?
Didn't you say you only played a bit?
How much time did you pour into that?
I-I didn't really spend that much time...
Let's see your play time, Meat.
Hey!
Don't just look at that!
What? 53 hours??
And you've got really cute armor too...
You pretentious lump of half-baked Meat!
What was that for?!
You've got bags under your eyes.
Of course I don't!!
Which means that since you went home on Friday you've been playing this nonstop.
It might just be Monster Hunter, but even lions would put their all into it!
Loins?
Lions!
Geez...
Let's just start. I'll host.
I'll picked up some warmup quests for you, so get ready.
For all the fighting, in the end it seems like we're actually taking club activities seriously...
Alright, let's go.
Sorry for the wait!
What's with that look?
I can't do anything about that. I just started, after all.
I'm talking about your character, not your armor.
You look woefully different from your real self.
Do you want to be a long-haired foreigner that badly?
And with a lame name like "Hawk" to boot.
Leave me alone! It's fine if things are a little different from reality in games!
"A little"?
Whatever, let's go!
Let's go straight to the boss.
Which way do we go...
NIGHT has been incapacitated
What the hell are you doing, Meat?!
Ah, sorry about that.
My hand slipped.
Come on, let's buff up and get going.
There's no way a rank 6 character can miss like that...
Wait, don't tell me this is why she spent all that time...
Well, I guess a miss is a miss.
Let's go.
What was that for?!
Ah, I hit the wrong button.
You were clearly aiming for me!
Don't be absurd.
Please don't come up with groundless accusations.
Why you...
Woah, it's here!!
Watch me take it apart.
A mere lizard like you, challenging me?
You're a billion years too earl—
Sedative-coated shot?!
Hey, Yozora...
Whoops.
Objective complete
Quest complete!
Yes! We brought it down!
What was that?!
Well, I was going to back you up, but that was out of my control.
Sorry about that.
You were clearly aiming for me!
Come on, this is supposed to be co-op, so how about we actually help each other?
You're right...
I'll help you out even more on our next hunt.
I'll be going all out helping you as well.
You'd better prepare yourself.
And so the true hunt began.
It's unnatural for meat to be walking around like that.
How about I turn you into mincemeat?
The peasant has quite a mouth.
Behave and let me hunt you down.
Silence, Meat.
Shut up, stupid witch.
Hey, Dragonite Ore!
Lucky!
Scum like you should just bend over and lick my feet!
Shut up and go to hell already, Meat!
Help me!
Sorry, I got taken out—
I only feel alive when I'm killing someone!
I'm going to slash open your sides and rip out your guts, witch!
Die!
Stop dodging!
Time up!
Quest failed!
I guess games won't work.
That was a waste of time.
And actually, I hate the fact that all recent portable games have multiplayer modes.
Why do I have to play games with other people?
That was the whole point of today's club activity!
Exactly how I feel.
Why do I have to bother with other people's feelings even in the games I play?
Exactly.
When do you two ever bother with people's feelings in the first place?
What'd you say?!
N-Nothing...
Want to stop by somewhere on the way home?
Sounds good.
How was Monster Hunter last night?
I beat Jinrouga but he just won't drop a plate.
I had enough tails too...
Okay!
Give me some tails if you've got too many.
Sure.
Hey...
I play monster hunter too.
How about trading with me if you have any dosujagira frills?
Of course we can!!
Is there anything else you'd like?
We'd be happy to give you anything!
Oh? That's nice of you!
The next day, the rumor went around that I had been extorting classmates in broad daylight.
What's that?
I guess a delinquent wouldn't know.
These are modern amenities called a "television" and "PlayingStates".
They run on "electricity".
What, I'm a Neanderthal now?
I was asking why they're in the clubroom.
To play games, of course.
And where did you manage to get your hands on such a big TV anyway?
And why did you bother bringing it all the way to school?
I discovered a game that seems much more useful than that stupid Monster Hunter thing,
so went out of my way to bring this here.
Be grateful, commoners.
Shut up, Meat.
You're making my coffee taste bad.
Hey! Don't just go around using my tea set!
Kirameki School Life 7?
One of those so-called "girl games"?
An appropriate game for this club, right?
I guess this might be good conversation practice.
Isn't that meant for guys though?
Aren't there games made for girls based around hot guys as well?
Huh?
Why on earth would I want to be friends with a guy?
I see...
Ka... Ka... Kashiwazaki...
Hold it, Meat. Why are we using your name?
What?
As the leader of this club, we should use my name.
Since when are you the leader of this club? Dumb witch.
Hey, the main character is a guy, so why not use my—
Hell no.
You get along perfectly on points like that, huh...
Well, Sena brought the game, so isn't it fair to let her enter her name?
Fine then.
See, Kodaka understands.
Let's see... Kashiwazaki Se—
I don't like it.
What the heck are you doing, dumbass!
My name is Kashiwazaki Semoponume.
What? Who's Semoponume?!
Well, it's a good name.
Why don't you change your real name to that?
"Sena" makes me want to vomit when I say it.
Hey, Semoponume!
This is Suzuki Masaru, my best friend from middle school.
What the hell??
You already have a best friend?!
And you still want more friends, damn you!
Kodaka, that's scary.
And gross.
Hanging around with cute girls is the only way to enjoy high school!
He's a cheap guy, but he knows what he's talking about.
That's the kind of friend I want!
Nice to meet you.
I'm Fujibayashi Akari.
I was kind of nervous about how high school would be, but it looks like everyone around me is really nice.
I hope we can get along, Kashiwazaki-kun.
Same here! Nice to meet you, Akari-chan!
Yeah. Nice to meet you, Fujibayashi-san.
Don't act friendly with me, woman! Get lost!
Huh?
Oh, I guess we pick how we respond.
3.
Why 3?!
Don't act friendly with me, woman! Get lost!
That's obviously the wrong choice!
There's no way I can trust some woman who can talk to some random guy she doesn't know on the first day of school.
Yeah, this woman's probably said the same thing to all the guys in class.
Wait, wait, wait. She looks like a nice girl...
These are the kind you know are slutty bitches.
There's always at least one in your class.
She looks pure and innocent at first, but behind the scenes, she's taking every guy she can find.
There aren't any people like that!
There definitely are.
They say that high school girls these days are all slutty bitches on the Internet.
You're one of those "high school girls these days".
So we agree on 3.
Don't act friendly with me, woman! Get lost!
I'm really sorry, Kashiwazaki-kun...
I guess I was a bit too friendly for someone I just met.
I'll be careful next time, so please don't hold it against me.
I'm sorry, Fujibayashi-san.
As you choose activities and raise your statistics, you meet girls and unlock events.
You can't meet girls unless you have actual skills?
The game world is pretty rough.
It's almost like reality.
Either way, I don't want him to be an idiot.
He's studying before he does anything else.
Agreed. I hate idiots.
And your intelligence rises as much as you study?
Just how stupid is this guy?
Well, it is a game...
Oh? Someone's here.
Oh, I'm sorry...
"No, it's my fault." Hand her the book.
"I touched the book first!" Take the book
without hesitation.
Another selection...
They're going to pick 2.
So, which is it now?
1.
Huh? Why?!
If you have time to read a book, spend it studying, Semoponume.
I'm shooting for 200 intelligence before the next test.
No slacking, you pile of living trash.
Go figure...
No, it's my fault.
Thank you very much!
Would you mind telling me your name?
Sure. I'm Kashiwazaki Semopunume, class D.
Kashiwazaki Semoponume-san...
That's a nice name.
Something in her brain is just sad.
Scary.
You can now ask Nagata Yukiko out on a date.
I'm thinking we should make friends with this girl first.
Any problems with that?
It's better than making friends with that slutty bitch Fujibayashi.
Go for it.
Yukiko...
Yes...
Oh man, she's just too cute!
She's way too cute!
Having a girl that loves you is the best thing ever!
Well, she's a pretty nice girl.
Yukiko, let's go home together.
No...
I'm sorry!
Why? What's wrong, Yukiko?!
I see. That's why Nagata Yukiko is suddenly avoiding you.
What do you mean?!
You've been treating Fujibayashi-san like crap every time you meet her.
If a girl doesn't like you, bad rumors spread and affect other girls.
In other words, Yukiko is avoiding me because Fujibayashi is badmouthing me all around school?!
That rotten bitch!
No, that's not exactly...
It says here that if you hurry and apologize, everything will go back to normal.
What?!
Why do I have to apologize to that slut?!
Apologize?! I don't remember getting along with that pig-headed slut in the first place!
Agreed.
By no means am I lowering my head to a stupid woman who decided to talk to me,
and ended up hurting herself even though I haven't done anything wrong.
Looks like we agree.
I won't let up.
And I know that Yukiko will figure out that it's all a misunderstanding.
Give up on Yukiko.
Believe in Yukiko!
Give up on Yukiko.
Believe in Yukiko!
Yukiko...
I—
I'm sorry!
Good bye!
Wait!
Yukiko...
I believed in you...
Seriously? Just how into this game are you?
Hey, where are you going?
To find Fujibayashi Akari.
And kill her.
Are you okay?
Yukiko!!!
Kodaka, Kodaka!
Over here!
Here!
I'll lend it to you, so get started on it as soon as you get home.
Especially Fujibayashi Akari's event in third year!
I cried so much!
You know, you spent most of yesterday calling Fujibayashi Akari a slutty bitch and a pig—
Don't badmouth Akari!
Huh?
Listen up.
Akari lost her parents when she was young, and she's been working hard all alone ever since.
But despite that, she doesn't hate the world and instead wants to spread smiles all over it!
I see...
And you have to finish the Yukiko route, too!
And Aina and Miho and Natsumi and Mizuki and Karen!
They're all good girls!
Did you finish all of them after you got home yesterday?
Of course!
You have to see all of their endings, too!
Got it?
Well, I guess I will when I feel like it...
No!
It doesn't matter if you feel like it or not, you're playing it.
It's your duty!
KiraSuku is a work that everyone in the country should play!
This isn't just a game!
This is, yes...
Life itself!
I think.
Oh no! We'll be late for class!
You have to play it!
Shoot!

Did you know, Meat?
If you pull an all-nighter clearing a galge, your brain will give its control to the galge.
What? Seriously?!
Those whose brains are controlled by galge are unable to make conscious decisions or make any friends.
Stop!
And even worse, your hair will turn completely blond,
and you'll develop excess fat on your chest and turn into a cow.
Is that true?!
Of course it's not.
Yozora, you idiot!
You're the idiot.
Next time: There are no Flags at the Pool (；´Д｀)
What's this about a pool?
