Since yesterday’s battle against Satoshi, Kagura Hikari had felt unable to settle her emotions.
It wasn’t that she couldn’t accept losing—rather, there was a maddening itch, an inexplicable impulse surging within her body, as though yearning for something from that boy. Perhaps craving it, even.
Was it the thrill of battle? Or something deeper?
Or maybe just Flabébé pollen allergies acting up...? No, probably not.
In short, it definitely wasn’t something li...

Who exactly his fiancée was didn’t matter at all. What mattered was that until he became the Kanto Champion or a Pokémon Master, he had no desire whatsoever to go home.
There were still plenty of things left to do—promoting [Mega Evolution], destroying evil organizations, adventuring actively through this wonderful world, and having fun with his companions (both Pokémon and humans). If someone in his group ended up liking him, then sure, he'd gladly accept their ...

“Red-Hat Demon King, please join our team! I’m begging you—I’ll do anything!”
“Hehehe~ Satoshi-kun, our team is all girls! Are you sure you won’t join us?”
“For the last time, I’m really not joining other teams!”
As soon as Satoshi arrived at his classroom that morning, he was immediately swarmed by a group of classmates. After achieving the dazzling top-three result in the recent Cup tournament, combined with his unbeatable 50-win streak, his ranking i...

Inside his home’s training room.
After returning from the battle café, Satoshi and his Pokémon began their routine training right away.
After all, as a student, his first priority was obvious—training nonstop~!
Though the doubles match earlier had just been a casual event, it ignited his fighting spirit even more, filling him with a burning desire to challenge even higher-level competitions.
Satoshi was already itching to participate in the High School L...

Unexpectedly, Blue, Sabrina, and Cynthia actually managed to come up with a solution.
After hearing their incredibly absurd proposal, August was left full of question marks. “Are you all serious?”
He had thought himself already abstract enough, but now it seemed he wasn’t even the most abstract one in the Kanto branch.
“You refused to make a decision, so we had no choice!” Sabrina smiled sweetly.

Under Celebi’s healing, Iono’s complexion rapidly regained its healthy glow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
She even let out a quiet, comfortable hum, causing those nearby to glance curiously in her direction.
Realizing that her current appearance was rather embarrassing, Iono hurriedly covered her mouth.
But…
It really did feel wonderful!
It was like soaking in a hot spring…

August lightly tapped Mew’s head, rescuing the two Dreepy from Mew’s hands and returning them to Dragapult.
With August’s help, Dragapult regained its Dreepy and immediately hid them safely inside the launchers atop its head, watching Mew warily, guarding them tightly and leaving no chance for Mew to strike again.
In Mew’s eyes, however, Dragapult was just being stingy.
Just as August was about to say something, his phone rang.
He glanced at the screen—there ...

Might Guy’s eyebrows were thick. Really thick. His hairstyle looked like a watermelon. Beneath his jōnin vest, he always wore that green skintight suit.
His looks weren’t much to speak of, but he was the man who nearly ended the story with one kick. People called him “The GOAT.”

Question: if a guy in front of you suddenly, without warning, blurts out a perverted request to see that thing of yours… and that guy happens to have knowledge you desperately need… in that case, should you agree or refuse?
After the perverted homosexual Naruto, Uchiha Nii-chan Jr. had also become a damned homosexual.

Nii-chan Jr. was a very busy person.
Although Hoshino had always wanted to wring a professional, proper training plan out of Sasuke, he had never gotten the chance.
The first time they met, they weren’t that familiar yet.
The second time, Naruto confessed to him, and the whole scene collapsed into chaos.
The third time, Sasuke bolted from the temple fair and disappeared without a trace—no matter how they looked, they couldn’t find him.

In that suffocatingly awkward air, the three of them wordlessly headed together to the temple fair.
As long as they got to a bustling, crowded place like that, surely it would break the delicate tension.
That’s what they thought.

Morning. The first day of the new year.
Because he’d gone to bed early last night, Hoshino didn’t sleep until noon as usual. He opened his eyes, ready to wash up and eat breakfast—when suddenly, beside Naruto’s futon, he noticed a strip of orange cloth.
A triangular piece of orange fabric, wrinkled in places, with faint heat still steaming from it.
“…”
Hoshino pretended not to see anything and headed for the toilet. He hoped that in the time it took him t...

After he and Ino finished grieving over the tragedy of other people’s IQs—
Hoshino dawdled and chatted with Ino for more than an hour. In the end, there wasn’t much progress to show for it. The only real achievement was that the little girl who had been afraid of him was now barely willing to acknowledge him as an “acquaintance.”
To call her an acquaintance was generous, though. At most, it was the kind where if they ran into each other again, they might nod hello.

Yet even so, a faint trace of disbelief still lingered in her eyes.
Moreover, according to Nearl's understanding of Don Quixote, it was unlikely he was joking. He was never one for such things.
