Taki still had a slight impression of the girl in front of her.
Mainly because she was a bit similar to Tomori—both the small-animal-type cute kind.
Of course, in Taki's eyes, Tomori was definitely the cutest in the world.
But she hadn't expected that this classmate of hers would confess to her.
Not just her—none of the surrounding classmates had expected it either.
To be able to say something like that, she must really like her!
What is this—did we just watch an extra episode?
Coming to school today was seriously worth it!
The girls all turned their gazes toward Taki, wanting to see how she would respond.
"Sorry, I don't like girls."
Taki's answer was naturally rejection—what else could it be?
"I understand. Sorry for disturbing you, Taki-san!"
The girl, whose first confession in life had been rejected, naturally turned around with reddened eyes and ran off.
The classmates watching nearby all revealed expressions of "as expected."
"So if it's not Tomori, it just won't work, huh?"
"Well, it is Taki after all…"
Some people also went to comfort her.
"Don't be sad. It wasn't going to succeed from the start—getting rejected is normal, right?"
As a result, the petite black-haired pseudo-loli's expression looked even more upset.
"In fact, even if you don't count Tomori-san, Taki probably wouldn't agree anyway, right?"
"How do you figure?"
"Even if there's no Tomori-san, isn't there still Umiri-san?"
"Now that you mention it, that's true!"
"Taki-san and Umiri-san do seem to have a pretty good relationship!"
"Anyone want to join the Taki x Umiri side?"
"Count me in!"
Umiri: ?
No, how did the topic even get dragged onto her?
What does this have to do with her?
Umiri refused to join the yuri game.
As for Taki, she was already too lazy to even refute them anymore.
Forget it—no need to mind them!
Taki sat down at her seat and casually picked up a carton of milk, intending to ask Umiri if she wanted one.
However, to her surprise, when Umiri saw her movement, she actually took a subconscious step back.
Taki: ?
No, what's with you too, Umiri?!
-----------------------------------
As MyGO!!!!! aired up to episode five, its highest ratings finally surpassed the 20% threshold.
This also meant that it had officially stepped into the ranks of a phenomenon-level anime.
At the same time, the popularity of the band girls naturally kept rising steadily.
However, in episodes four and five, aside from Anon, Tomori, and Taki, the other girls truly didn't have any particularly memorable scenes.
So it was merely that more people were asking for their autographs—there wasn't much difference compared to before.
After school, the girls naturally gathered at RiNG.
Kamijou Mutsuki went there as usual. Just as he arrived, he saw the cat eating candy.
Rarely, she wasn't having Taki feed her—she was doing it herself.
The other girls were gathered together, seemingly discussing something.
"Kamijou!"
Anon was the first to notice Kamijou Mutsuki and greeted him. However, Kamijou Mutsuki had no time to respond.
Because the cat was about to stuff the candy into her mouth.
Fortunately, Kamijou Mutsuki reacted quickly and snatched the candy away at the very last moment.
Daily mission, complete.
Cat: ?
Feeling the emptiness in her mouth, a question mark couldn't help but pop up above the cat's head.
Where's my candy?
She subconsciously turned her head and, sure enough, saw that familiar figure.
Wow, this time you're just grabbing it straight from my hand, huh?
The cat wasn't Soyo—did he think she wouldn't get angry?
Watching the cat pounce over, the prepared Kamijou Mutsuki tried to use the same trick again.
But as everyone knows, Raana's speed is seven times that of a cat.
Due to physical reasons, Kamijou Mutsuki's hand speed wasn't fast to begin with, so when the cat got serious, he was very easily pinned down onto the sofa.
Just how much does this guy like stealing the cat's candy?
Seeing Kamijou Mutsuki pinned down by the cat, Anon thought speechlessly to herself.
She had eaten the cat's candy before too—she could only say that matcha-flavored candy really wasn't to her taste.
On the other side, Taki glanced over once and then withdrew her gaze. This guy never learns his lesson.
He deserved to be properly taught a lesson by the cat!
Anyway, with her reminder, the cat probably wouldn't be like last time.
However, this time, as Kamijou Mutsuki was pinned down on the sofa, he didn't feel any soft, fluffy cat-paw attacks.
Wait, Cat, why are you prying at my mouth? Σ(° △°|||)
Although Kamijou Mutsuki tried his best to resist, the agility of a feline was simply not comparable to that of a human. Therefore, the candy he had just snatched was quickly snatched back by the cat.
However, after retrieving the candy, the cat felt that the taste was slightly different from before.
Forget it—getting it back was what mattered!
The cat chose to stop thinking and focus on eating the candy.
"Stray cat, you…"
Looking at the cat who had climbed off Kamijou Mutsuki and was now happily eating candy, Taki couldn't help but reveal a puzzled expression.
"Where did you get that candy?"
If she remembered correctly, wasn't that the last one?
"Raana, super amazing!"
However, to Taki's surprise, upon hearing her question, the Persian cat actually put her hands on her hips with a somewhat proud expression.
"I snatched the candy back from the bad guy!"
Taki: ?
But hadn't that candy already been eaten by Kamijou Mutsuki?
How did the cat snatch it back?
Wait… could it be that the candy in the cat's mouth is…
Taki: ???
Looking at the cat smiling back at her, Taki finally understood the truth, and her temperature instantly rose.
"Stray cat, spit out the candy!"
Taki directly grabbed the cat's shoulders and started shaking her.
She felt like her whole body was going numb—how could this cat dare to eat anything?!
Cat: ?
Feeling Taki's actions, the cat felt wronged.
She had worked so hard to snatch the candy back—why did she have to spit it out?
However, recalling how Kamijou Mutsuki had repeatedly snatched her candy before, the cat looked at the anxious Taki in front of her and suddenly made a guess.
Could it be… Taki wanted to eat it too?
Although somewhat reluctant, since it was Taki, she still took the candy out of her mouth.
Seeing this, before Taki could even show a relieved expression, the cat directly stuffed the candy into her mouth.
Taki: ?
Kamijou Mutsuki, who had just gotten up nearby, frowned when he saw this scene.
Giving candy to Taki but not to him—bad cat!
As for Taki, she had already completely lost the ability to think.
Where am I? What am I doing?
"This candy has a taste it didn't have before."
Perhaps because it was the first time she had actively shared candy, the cat became more talkative.
"There's still a lot left."
Because of Taki, she hadn't eaten much just now.
That flavor that didn't belong to matcha still remained for the most part.
Such a special candy, and she even shared it with Taki.
Cat, good!
