[TSSIM] Chapter 470: Airing Time Announcement

"Homura-kun is the dad, and we're the moms..."

Rin muttered in a daze, then got lost in thought.

'Wait, doesn't this mean those who don't voice their objections to being moms actually like Homura-kun?!'

Rin felt like she had discovered the world's most precious secret.

'But... since everyone already likes Homura-kun, that's not surprising, right?'

It wasn't just Rin, as everyone else also figured it out, but no one said anything against it.

Even Yukiho and Alisa just blushed a little but didn't say a word of objection. Naturally, this earned them some meaningful glances from the others, especially from Eli and Honoka, who were their elder sisters.

Both of them gave their younger sisters a deep look but said nothing.

Honestly, what was there to say?

With so many girls liking Homura, including themselves, it wasn't surprising that their younger sisters liked him too.

Were they supposed to act all big-sister-ish and say it was wrong for two sisters to like the same man?

If they did, their younger sisters would probably think they were being selfish, so taking things one step at a time was better.

"Homura! Hurry up and start!"

In this silent atmosphere, Elf suddenly spoke, sounding a little impatient.

"Huh? Start what?" Nico asked, curious.

"Announcing the anime's airing time on the internet." Megumi explained to the clueless girls.

Hearing this, the girls all nodded in realization.

Indeed, they remembered that the anime's premiere time hadn't been announced yet.

"Are you in a hurry or something? Fine." Homura shrugged, pulled out his phone, and started typing.

[Minamiya: Hey, guys, how's everyone doing? Has my manga made you feel something, maybe even brought a little joy?]

[Comment 1: Minamiya-sensei is back! First one here, y'all! C'mon, everyone, get in!]

[Comment 2: Hold up, bro! I'm on my way!]

[Comment 3: Let's go, guys! Don't let Minamiya-sensei slip away!]

Elf cracked up at these first few comments.

[Minamiya: I'm not running away, you see how excited everyone is.]

[Minamiya: Damn, who stepped on my foot?!]

[Comment 4: LOL, Minamiya-sensei's cracking me up again.]

[Comment 5: Minamiya-sensei is the only one who would mess around with us like this, LMAO!]

[Minamiya: Okay, no more messing around! By the way, is everyone still enjoying Takagi-san? I bet the teasing Takagi-san and the teased Nishikata have given you all plenty of heartwarming moments. Did any of you end up squirming in bed like a big worm, flashing a creepy smile while watching those two?]

[Comment 6: Yo, that's way too much! How'd ya even know, Minamiya-sensei?]

[Comment 7: Fr, did you plant a hidden cam in my house or something Minamiya-sensei?]

[Comment 8: Bruh, if you wanna watch, just pull up to my place. No need to go full spy mode.]

[Comment 9: LMAO!]

[Minamiya: Stop talking nonsense! I know this so well because I squirm more than you guys do!]

[Comment 10: LOL, for real!]

[Comment 11: You squirm more than me? Pfft, no way! Prove it with a vid!]

[Comment 12: Hahaha, now that's a solid plan!]

Not just the fans, but even the girls around Homura were laughing their heads off upon reading the comments.

"How come I didn't see you squirm?" Eriri asked with a mischievous grin.

"You think I'd let you see me squirm?" Homura replied with a smirk. "But seriously, every time Takagi-san goes on the offensive, there's no shortage of people squirming around."

"Huh? I didn't squirm." Elf said, unconvinced.

"Me neither." Utaha quickly shook her head.

Truly, squirming around like that would totally ruin her goddess vibe.

"Who said anything about you?" Homura raised an eyebrow. "Usually, it's us guys who squirm the most."

Girls: "..."

"Well, it's natural since Takagi-san is the one on the offensive." Homura added with a slight smile before going back to fiddling with his phone.

[Minamiya: Alright, enough squirming! We can save that for later. Anyway, I've got some good news for you all! Not only is the concept art for the anime adaptation of Fate/stay night done, but all our tasks in Another Dimension are also complete! Are you excited?]

[Comment 13: Alright, fine, I'm in! Let's just save that for later, cool?]

[Comment 14: Damn, that's some big news, but honestly, not really surprised. What's up with that?]

[Comment 15: Same, maybe it's because we're so used to the fast pace of Another Dimension?]

[Comment 16: Yeah, not shocked, but we're definitely hyped for the anime!]

[Comment 17: Let's fucking goooo! News like this deserves a couple of drinks to celebrate!]

[Comment 18: But for real, when's it actually dropping? I think Minamiya-sensei said it was around July, right?]

[Comment 19: Who knows? No anime company has said anything about it yet.]

[Minamiya: I heard a little rumor that it'll air this Saturday! I'm not sure if it's true though.]

"Pffft—Hahaha! Rumor my foot!"

Elf suddenly burst out laughing and rolled on the floor, clutching her stomach.

At the same time, the fans were laughing just as hard.

[Comment 20: LMAO, a freaking rumor? Is that the real release date though?]

[Comment 21: Is that rumor even legit? But hey, at least we got the airing time, right?]

[Comment 22: Saturday, let's gooo! Can't wait!]

[Comment 23: Ugh, come on time, hurry the heck up!]

[Minamiya: Attention, guys! Here's another little rumor! On the same Saturday, Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun is rumored to officially air! Anyone who loves Monthly Girls should be thrilled, right? By the way, that's just a rumor, okay? So, yeah, see ya!]

"Hey, are you done yet?"

Eriri asked with a grin, slapping Homura's shoulder playfully.

Truly, she could hardly hold back her laughter.

Homura let out a breath and put away his phone.

After sending that final comment, he didn't care about what people were saying online.

"Every time Homura-kun posts something, the internet gets so lively!" Honoka remarked with amazement.

"Heh, I like the excitement." Elf said with a grin. "You know, there are a lot of interesting people online. Even though there are tons of users, there are always a few standouts."

Homura shook his head, feeling helpless.

"By the way, Homura-kun, are we doing nothing this week?" Kotori asked curiously.

"For our new work... that can wait, but... you girls should be practicing, right?" Homura replied after thinking for a moment. "If I remember correctly, you have a concert on Friday?"

At this, Kotori nodded.

Homura was right, they indeed had a concert later, but it was mainly for the school, with students and their parents invited. As for outsiders, it was just a 'come if you find out' situation.

If someone noticed, they could come, but if not, it was no big deal since they weren't actively promoting their concert in the first place.

"We were actually hoping to find something to do..." Eriri muttered helplessly. "We're kind of at a loose end right now..."

"Ugh... we've really turned into workaholics, aren't we? Even when we have free time, we don't know what to do with it..." Elf grumbled with a frustrated tone.

Homura thought for a moment, then nodded.

"I understand but... what do you want to do, really? Do you want to try drawing some manga, or are you thinking about starting Kanon early?"

"Manga? Forget it for now." Eriri said, shaking her head. "I’m not expecting to reach even a third of your speed, but I've got to at least match Mashiro's. Otherwise, I won't be able to juggle both the manga and the work for the circle."

"Oh? You're surprisingly sensible." Homura chuckled.

"Hmph, don't underestimate me, okay?" Eriri snorted with a smile.

Seeing bored and listless expressions on some of the girls, Homura thought for a moment before coming to a decision.

"Alright, since you all want to work that much, let's start working on Kanon tomorrow!"

With a big grin, Homura declared the next work of Another Dimension.
