Release Day!

They didn't know what to say, they could only say that Homura really spoils Haru too much.

"Haru-chan is after all the Logo! She'll make frequent appearances!" Nanami comforted him.

"Haha! I knew Haru's charm couldn't go unnoticed by anyone!" Homura suddenly laughed upon hearing her reasoning.

The girls ignored him and refreshed their internet browsers page repeatedly...

"Huh? Am I the only one who finds this cat so adorable?" Homura wondered as she observed their reactions.

Speechless, they shook their heads, thinking that he was beyond saving.

Eriri walked up to Haru and touched her cat's head, saying, "Haru-chan, you're still the best! Look at how much he cares about you..."

Utaha's lips twitched uncontrollably. She coldly snorted, "Hmph! I didn't expect Homura-kun to be such a hardcore cat slave!"

"That's not true! If I were a hardcore cat slave, I'd have a bunch of cats at home by now!" Homura retorted with a face of disbelief.

Utaha: "..."

'Why do I feel like that makes sense?! I can only say that this cat, Haru-chan, is too special.' Utaha helplessly exclaimed in her mind.

Megumi spoke up and asked, "Homura-kun, the circle has already been announced, when will we start promoting the game?"

"Half an hour later... let them have some fun first! When we attract more attention, I'll blow them away all at once!" Homura replied.

Time passed as everyone refreshed their browser page repeatedly...

"OK! Let's get started!" Homura called out, "As soon as I post it, you guys repost it!"

Homura was referring to everyone, including Megumi and Nanami because they also had a considerable number of followers!

Minamiya: To all my friends who follow me and Another Dimension, it seems that our simultaneous appearance has brought a lot of surprises to everyone! Haha, so get ready for the next one! A more surprising, even delightful announcement... is coming!

The latest work of Another Dimension is here! First of all, I apologize to all the friends who like Yamada Elf, because she joined us too late, and by the time she joined, our work was almost finished! But don't worry, there will be no shortage of work from us! She will definitely make an appearance later!

Now, without further ado, our latest masterpiece is a visual novel called 'Your Name.'!

Your Name. will officially go on sale this Saturday! Can you guess where? Ahem! Okay, I'll just tell you. It's at Manke Bunko Store! Yes, you read that right! It's Manke Bunko!

Here's what I can reveal about the game:

Script and Scenario by Kasumi Utako, Original Art and Character Design by Kashiwagi Eri, Game Codes and Programs by Kato Megumi, Voice Over by Aoyama Nanami, and for the rest... borrowing your words, the All-Rounder: Me. Yes, I participated in everything! Surprised, aren't you?! Aren't you thrilled?!

What? You're not impressed? Well, as for Shiina Mashiro-sensei, she has another task, which you'll find out about next Saturday!

Alright, enough chit-chat! 'Your Name.' at Manke Bunko Store this Saturday! Please come and support us! We hope you'll buy it!

Following this, the girls repost the announcement...

Whoosh! The internet exploded! It brought forth a large number of active users, a large group of inactive users also emerged, and even a significant number of industry professionals!

It was impossible not to be excited! Even though they had suspected it, they never expected it to happen so quickly!

"Hurry! Hurry and find out about this Another Dimension and their game!"

This sentence echoed in many places at the same time.

This included the circle Rouge en rouge...

At this moment, Kosaka Akane was also stunned by this news!

"What the...? The number of people has increased again... There are now Eromanga and Yamada Elf in addition to last time." Akane pondered for a moment. "And, in this short period of less than a month, they have already released their work!"

"Judging by Minamiya's previous works, the quality of the works they jointly produce will surely be even higher!"

"They're coming on strong..." Akane muttered to herself.

"It looks like the collaboration can't wait any longer."

On Saturday, to the anticipation of many, Homura and his group, along with a cat, once again arrived near the Manke Bunko's Store as per usual.

Elf also came to join the fun!

This time, Utaha, Elf, and Mashiro may be recognized, so they simply dressed up a little bit.

Mashiro wore a hat, while Elf and Utaha covered their mouths with scarves, as they didn't want to give away their identities. On the other hand, the others didn't receive the same treatment as the three. They made only minor changes, as covering up too much might have the opposite effect.

"This is really amazing, so many people!" Homura exclaimed.

Eriri nodded and was also surprised, "Half a month ago, I said there might be people camping out in line in the future, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon!"

Megumi said, "There are so many people, it should be because the fans trust you all, right?"

Utaha also said, "Yes! Because they trust us too much, they believe that only good works will come from us, and that's why they come to queue."

Elf estimated the crowd, "It looks like there are at least several thousand people! And more and more people are still joining!"

Turning to him, Elf said, "Remember, this is just one store! There will be tens of thousands of sales today alone!"

Those who didn't understand, such as Sagiri, Megumi, and Nanami, were all shocked when they heard this.

"Tens of thousands?" Nanami couldn't help but exclaim.

Elf nodded and said, "And that's just for today. Once word-of-mouth spreads, sales will continue to increase!"

Sagiri tugged on his sleeve, "Nii-san, let's move away a bit! There are too many people."

"Okay!" Homura rubbed her head, "I didn't expect our joint promotion will cause such a big stir to this degree!"

As more people gathered, he quickly retreated with the girls to a more secluded area.

After everyone had stopped and stood in place at another selected location, his phone rang.

"Hmm? Why did Ayano suddenly call?"

Ayano's voice sounded somewhat worried, "Homura, do you think this commotion might be a bit too much?"

He understood. She was worried that the commotion would cause unexpected situations. If something like an accident were to happen in the crowd, it might have the opposite effect.

Homura smiled and reassured her, "Don't worry! I'm right here at the scene! It looks like there won't be any problems for a short while."

"That's good..." Ayano breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, don't worry. I'm keeping an eye on things here, and if there are any problems, I'll ask my dad to lend a hand! Isn't that also a problem that he should worry about?" Homura's mouth curved up slightly.

Ayano let out a breath.

"Alright, I was just overthinking things."
