<h4>Volume 12 – Gamers and Youth Continue, Prologue</h4>
Trantor: your_pingas
I’ve never felt the same as those in protagonists that love their ordinary lives.
It’s because their so-called “ordinary lives” are incredibly blessed and sessful.
< Roms with a cute girl, chatting happily with a handsome friend, cheered on by a reliable master, and even ying with friends that sharemon interests sometimes. >
If this is called ordinary, then my life-
< Friendless, not belonging to anywhere in ss, wandering around the school during the break, keep repeating mistakes that can’t make peopleugh in PE, people say they are “carrying” me when we’re splitting into groups. >
How should I call this kind of life? Hell? A lonely hell? Seriously, even I don’t want to ssify my high school life as hell.
Anyway, from my perspective, no matter what, I don’t understand how those protagonists feel. They are already satisfied with their environment and abilities.
…This thing, indeed, even if my daily life right now is-
< Roms with a cute girl, chatting happily with a handsome friend, cheered on by a reliable master, and even ying with friends that sharemon interests sometimes. >
-which is your so-called “an asshole protagonist that makes people jealous.”
It’s because I can’t call this kind of daily life ordinary, nor do I want to.
I can confidently announce that a daily life like this is the best treasure to me.
It’s just that, even if my daily life has already evolved into its current state- I, Keita Amano, am still a pretty mundane person. This year, no special abilities were awoken inside me, and my gaming skills didn’t improve. I didn’t be manlier, nor there’s a sense of noble justice within my heart.
In the end, I’m still just a lonely passerby high schooler.
However, if you still have to point out my features, there are two.
The first one is that I have the exact same name as the MC in < Youkai Watch >. Also…
“I love games.”
That’s all. …Indeed, I still really love games right now. There’s no ridiculous backstory or special reason. I’ve just always loved it unconditionally.
Whether it’s the remarkable sound effects, adorable bitmaps, detailed illustrations, strategy systems, amazing plot, or ssic adventure tales, I love them all.
Anyway, it makes me happy. ying a well-made game is the most blessed moment for me. So, I can forget most of the bad moments in high school as long as I have games.
This is how much I love games.
…However, recently, something as important as games, if not more, appeared in my life too.
That would be my current girlfriend- Karen Tendou-san.
…What the hell? In the end, you’re just showing off like a normie. I bet you’re thinking about that. But, please rx.
Yeah, I’m showing off.
Having a girlfriend is super amazing. If you ask me how great it is, I’ll tell you that I’m soaked in happiness 24/7. Doesn’t it feel great to level up in RPGs? I get 10x as much pleasure from just thinking about her, okay? Nothing is more valuable than this, right. She’s an infinite happiness generator. That’s what we call lovers.
…Hmm, I can show off forever if I can, but let’s stop it here.
Anyway, you’re asking what I want to say? I want to say that I, Keita Amano, have another thing to love aside from games.
So, finally, here’s the story I want to talk about.
Unfortunately, it’s not a story that I love. In fact, I’m feeling quite regretful.
It’s because of the ending of the story.
It’s about a protagonist that acquired the best daily life possible. After so many plot twists, he finally started going out with a beautiful girl. It’s so sweet that you can’t resonate with it.
-In other words, it’s a story about games.
