Echoes

When the doors opened, customers poured in all at once.

This is a common sight at Comiket.

And in the blink of an eye, there was a huge line at the Lugh booth.

And the object of attention was me and Rio.

“Rio, can I take your picture?”

“Please give me your autograph!”

There were many fans like that.

“This is great.”

I was surprised at the response, which was more than I had imagined.

And because of the high quality of Rio’s cosplay, there were many requests for photos.

After lunchtime, when the line had settled down, we were finally released.

“Since you’re here, why don’t you two go check out the other places?”

Hiyama-san said to me.

“Are you okay now?”

“You two have worked hard enough, and we’ve settled down.”

The inventory, which had been so large, was now on the verge of being sold out.

Once again, I was reminded of the greatness of Pro-hopple.

“I understand. Thank you very much.”

I started walking around the venue with Rio.

“Ryo, do you have somewhere you want to go?”

“Well, I didn’t do any research at all.”

I hadn’t done any research on who was going to be at Comiket.

“I should have done my research.”

I felt a little bad that I hadn’t done any research.

“Ah, um, it’s Takamori-san and Rio-san, right?”

I was suddenly approached from behind.

“Yes, that’s right.”

There was a beautiful girl with black hair down to her shoulders and glasses.

“My name is Yumi Misawa. I’m a fan of you two!”

The name sounded familiar.

“I think it was the manga artist’s name.”

“You know me?”

“Yes, she’s famous.”

“I’m so glad!”

She said, grabbing my hand.

“A little too close”

Rio gets between me and Yumi and pulls them apart.

“I’m sorry. I just got so excited.”

“No, I’m fine.”

“If you want, you can take my new book.”

Yumi took her new book from her booth and handed it to me.

“No, I’ll be sure to buy it.”

I reached into my pocket for my wallet.

“No problem! I’m happy just to have you two read it!”

“I’ll take advantage of your kindness this time. Let me thank you next time.”

“By all means!”

Yumi smiled as she said this.

“Then we’ll take our leave.”

“Yes! I’m sorry for holding you back.”

We parted on the spot.

“Ryo is a bit of a jerk, isn’t he?”

“What?”

“He’s a womanizer.”

“Are you mad at me?”

Rio is walking a few steps in front of me.

“Nothing!”

“You’re mad at me!”

After that, I had a hard time convincing Rio.



The next day, SNS was abuzz with talk about the Comiket.

Among them, the trend was the topic of me and Rio alone.

The second to fifth places are all related to me and Rio.

“It’s going to be great again.”

That day, I received a call from Rio.

“Yes, it is. The response to my cosplay has been great.”

On that day alone, my SNS followers increased by more than 10,000.
