Skype "kiss" scene
>And then, Wednesday, late at night.
>"S-s-so, so, so"
>"..."
>"It's f-finally time for the k-k-kiss..."
>"You're just fooling around, aren't you Tomoka-kun."
>"Nope! It's just that I'm embarrassed so my reaction is a bit strange!”
>”Uh, quiet down, you’re bothering the neighbors.”
>I could see Megumi’s face and how she acted over Skype. A complete change from how she when we were on a date holding hands...when we were reading the script for the date for holding hands, she was back to being flat.
>Well, after all, the reason for that is how tense I’m acting and how the hurdle for each event keeps rising.
>”Besides, you don’t need to show every bit of an embarrassing scenario like that. Just write whatever makes you satisfied.”
>”No, even considering what we’ve done until now, it’s still that if I personally have you see it, we’ll get something better!”
>”But wouldn’t you, who has actual experience in kissing, be better for a kiss scene?”
>”You’re saying that, really saying that!?” (furigana: Y-you’re just admitting you’ve never kissed before!?)

Fourth best girl.
>...anyway, today’s script reading is about Meguri 19, where the protagonist and Meguri share their first kiss.
>It’s a crucial turning point where Meguri, who was once flat, has now fully recognized the protagonist as her lover, and it’s essential for it to capture the hearts of the users.
>Meguri 19 has to fully combine various things like descriptions to directly express the two’s feelings, situations that would make your mind melt with moe, and dialogue that makes you want to root for them without a second thought.
>”It’s pretty tough for me to do this script reading now though.”
>”We can’t have the main heroine doing that!”
>Despite that, Megumi ignores how important this meeting is, and her attitude just keeps getting more negative.
>...in the beginning, anyway.
>”I’ve been having some doubts recently. I feel you’re just having fun watching my reactions.”
>”You don’t get it all!?”
>”Besides, I think that your scenarios are pretty good, even if I don’t do ad-libbing.”
>”Really…?”
>”Yeah, it’s embarrassing for girls, to the point they pretty much can’t read it. That’s why I think it’s perfect for guys.”
>”...there are still things I’m stuck on, but for now I’ll take what you said as praise. That aside, open up the Meguri 19 file I sent you. It’s still rough, but I tried writing the part right before the kiss.”
>”...I guess no matter how much I resist, in the end I don’t have a choice.”
>”Hey hey, act instead of talking back.”
>”You’re really been getting carried away recently, Tomoya-kun.”
Well, no matter what you say of it, this is all for making our best (rest omitted), I can’t let myself be dispirited from something like this.
>No Eriri option
Wonder to myself why I'm playing this game at all.
>MC: Hey...Meguri.
>Meguri: What...stop the talking after I close my eyes.
>MC: But...is it really fine?”
>Meguri: What is?
>MC: Are you fine with the one being me?”
>Meguri: Hmm…
>Right before we were about to do it, I said those cowardly words.
>But, Meguri just sighs with a bitter smile and replies with her eyes still closed, us still being on standby.
>Meguri: You know, right now I’m thinking of something weird.
>MC: Something...weird?
>Meguri: As time passes and I become an old lady, right before I die…
>MC: ...that’s definitely weird.
>Meguri: That’s definitely when, as my life until then flashes before me like a revolving lantern…
>Meguri: I feel I can die with a smile,
>Meguri: If I can just remember, “Ah, come to think of it, my first kiss was with you...”
>MC: Meguri…
>Meguri: “I love you.”
>MC: ...
Megumi is too cute. How can he resist?
It means you played the game totally wrong and got yourself locked on the Megumi route.
Magnavalon just posted the full summary of chapter 1.
You mean chapter 2?
I will always maintain that this LN has some of the best illustrations I've seen. It feels like the artist is wasted on such a generic plot.
> generic
Hello, animefag.
>That illustration turned out to be a humongous drawing of Eriri, or rather, the character based on Eriri from Tomoya's current game.
>The illustration was described by Tomoya to portray the hesitation and the tenderness of her white skin—her feelings of shame, determination, and lack of joy; such combination of purity and perversion is all perfectly captured in that illustration.
>mfw no Eriri illustration in V11
...
>”A, aww...”
>”...”
>”I can cry to this! It’s moe but I can cry to this! Don’t you think this is just the best situation, Megumi!”
>”...putting aside if it’s good, I can guarantee these lines come off as overdone.”
>”Thanks, that’s the best compliment you can give! I gave a lot of thought into picking this, if someone told me this in real life I’d be fine dying on the spot!”
>”Ok, got it, got it.”
>Megumi drew back from my self-praise, and she is now looking at me from the back of her room, having left the camera.
>”So, please go over this! Megumi-san!”
>”...I told you not to shout. You’re bothering the neighbors.”
>”If that’s what you want, come back to the camera. Go back!”
>”Aww, sheesh.”
>Fed up with my pressuring, Megumi reluctantly went back to the MC. She glares at me with a sour look.
>Even so, in the end she peers into her PC screen and earnestly starts reading my scenario, looking for faults...going over it.
>”Putting aside how it’s packed full of your delusions and so embarrassing I can’t look at it straight...”
>”Do you have to give criticism every time you talk about it to feel satisfied?”
>”Isn’t this heroine too ready?”
>”Too ready?”
>”Like, no matter how much you’re going out, wouldn’t you normally think more about the future? Something like “am I really fine with this guy?”
>”I’m sorry, but does a galge heroine really need that kind of mentality?”
>”Even so, they already assume they’ll always be together. They don’t think about ever breaking up...it’s like they’re already husband and wife.”
>What Megumi said seems negative…
>”Husband and wife...that’s it!”
>”That’s what?”
>But it shook me in the completely opposite way, like a divine revelation.
>”They already assume they’ll always be together, and they don’t think about breaking up at all...that’s the viewpoint of two people married, having decided to walk their future together!
>”Well, a real couple would think like that at first and then quickly divorce.”
>”Yeah, a married couple...that’s right, that’s how it’s going to go, Megumi!”
>”Agh, I really don’t like this.”
I withstand the cold coming from her with my passion, and with that passion I declare to my monitor.
>”Try saying these lines more like a wife!”
I highly doubt the LN has anything to surprise me with.
The prose is bad, but the dialogue and series composition is good. It's why Saekano only got success once it got an anime adaptation, even now the LN sells relatively poorly.
That sounds erotic and pure at the same time. A beautiful and terrifying contradictions.
Now I'll have to hope for a bonus material of that from.
Close the game. Immediately refund it.
Wait, is this actually legit from vol.11? If so, curse it all for no illustration of that drawing.
>it’s like they’re already husband and wife.”
So Tomoya finally realizes that's how he and Megumi already act?
It's legit, Tomoya said it himself.
Probably no illustration because all slots are full for the Megumi moments.
Oh but he had the space for an Akane shot. I get it now.
New fuel for Eririfag's tears.
“You’re fooling around...Tomoya-kun, you’re definitely using me to fool around.”
>Even though she was across the camera, I can tell her eyes are like a dead fish’s. She was glaring at me with resentment.
>However, I’m not one to back away just because of something like this. I know no shame, even if it doesn’t make sense I’ll get by somehow through enthusiasm. Blessing Software is a circle that draws out the heroine’s charm and makes her moe.
>”Okay, start from the “as time passes” part.”
>...anyway, I totally gnore Megumi’s complaints. Like how a believer worships a goddess, I stare back at Megumi.
>”Really, lately haven’t you been pretty ecchi towards me?”
>”Can’t help it. When I’m writing a scenario, I want to feel like how the protagonist feels.”
>Well, recent scenarios for the Meguri route have had the protagonist being aggressive with her, with the idea that the more I try to write their lines and feelings, the more I’d understand the feelings he has for Meguri.
>I’m not actually following Kousaka Akane’s advice in “masturbate so you feel good”...I think.
>”Like a wife...wife, huh...”
>”As I was racking my head trying to come up with some cringeworthy excuse, Megumi seemed to have already accepted it. She was practicing her acting to get into Meguri’s character.
>I stop my needless chatter, take notice of her every action, and earnestly wait for her words.
>”Uh, as time passes and I become an old lady, right before I die…”
Meguri drips from Megumi’s lips.
>”That’s definitely when, as my life until then flashes before me like a revolving lantern…”
>”...”
>”If I remember, ‘Oh, my first kiss was with a total otaku’...then I’ll think, ‘There is no way I can die like this.”
>”CUUUUUUUUUTTTT! NO GOOD!”
None. Megumi a shit.
Here.
>...that’s what I expected, but what came wasn’t Meguri but black Megumi.
>“Umm, is it really that bad for me to ad-lib by mixing in what I’m really thinking?”
>”Absolutely! The flat acting and tone is also bad! Everything is!”
>I pretend not to notice the contents of what she said (furigana: my first kiss was with a total otaku!!) and, in an unnaturally forced way, coach her on her act.
>”You can ad-lib, but no jokes. Only do ones that make you cry or are so moe they give heart attacks!”
>”Aghh, I don’t want anyone but the person I’m actually kissing to know what I say when I kiss.”
>”...imagine something. You can make it different from what you’d actually use.”
>But Megumi gives a retort, like she’s seen how troubled I am and is playing around with me. I don’t know if it is conscious or unconscious, but those words have some nuance to them. Lately, when we do this script reading, it always turns out like this…
>”No matter how I look at it, doing it ‘like a wife’ is pretty hard...Tomoya-kun.”
>”Well, then, let’s drop it a little, how about we make it someone you’ve been going out with for a long time?”
>”Ok, got it. We’ll put it at that amount of ‘love’, alright?”
>”Uh, sure...”
>Even though she was complaining just a while ago, Megumi sees my intentions and assertively steps into this embarrassing world of mine.
>She takes a deep breath, closes her eyes, wets her lips with a lick…
>She did all that so close to her camera, in other words, right in front of me.”
>”Alright, let’s go.”
>”Oh.”
>”...”
>”...”
>”...So?”
>”’So?’” What?”
>”I wonder if the protagonist is going to start talking...”
>”Huh...”
>She does it again.
>”Like, it’s a conversation, right? There’s dialogue.”
>”Yeah, but...”
>”If it’s a one person act, then the feelings won’t come...they just won’t, Tomoya-kun.”
>”Could you even act with emotion in the first place!?”
>”Anyway, from now on I won’t do this without a partner.”
>The retorts once used on “Katou” won’t work anymore.
>”But, but, I’m not the protagonist. I’m the writer.”
>”...so this is the only time you say that.”
>”Megumi...”
>”Megumi” is filled with emotion...she’s overflowing with it. She won’t let me run away anymore.
>”Are you ready? Then...I’m starting.”
>Because of this sudden attack, I’m nervous, my heart beating and cold sweat running.
>Without warning, I’m pulled into this embarrassing roleplay.
>“H-h-hey...Meguri...”
>”Hold up...you’re too nervous.”
>”S-sorry. But, you know, this is so sudden...”
>”This is my first...and yet, if you’re so nervous, I won’t know what to do.”
>”Huh? Uh...”
>She wasn’t criticizing my poor acting.
>”But like, this isn’t something to be nervous about. For both of us.”
>”...why?”
>”Because, there’s no way this will be a bad memory.”
>”Umm...”
>”Even if our teeth clash, or we laugh or get into a fight...no matter what happens, it’ll definitely be a wonderful memory.”
>She had totally become Kanou Meguri. A total ad-lib.
>”Megumi, ah, Meguri...are you fine with the one being me?”
>”Jeez, are you still asking that? I gave the answer so long ago.”
>”S-sorry.”
>I’m the only one unable to follow her ad-libs, just reading off the script and trying to put us back on course but making it worse instead.
>From the lack of clarity of where the conversation is going, the way the story is developing, and her feelings, my discomposure and heart’s beating won’t stop.
>”...”
>Meguri, no, Megumi stops her words and actions. From across the monitor, she’s staring at me.
>But it isn’t because she’s waiting for instructions or out of material or even embarrassed…
>”...Meguri”
>”Yeah.”
>She was just waiting for my...no, the protagonist’s words.
>In other words, it meant “I’ve already told you how I feel, so you’re up next.”
>”Show me more of your face.”
>”Sure.”
>Megumi gets close to the screen.
>Her face is now as big as the one I always see in real life.
>”Meguri...”
>So to follow her resolve ––– acting, I close the distance between her.
>Even though it’s just virtual, it feels like we’ve gotten closer in the real world…
>”You’re close...”
>”Nothing we can do about it. We’re...”
>”Going to kiss, after all.”
>We’re both drunk.
>My face is so close, and it’s such a disgusting situation, but I could see that Megumi’s cheeks are bright red on the monitor. I hear her sigh from the speaker.
>”U-um...should we close our eyes?” (Japanese quote brackets show it’s Megumi speaking here)
>”No way...I want to see it all the way through.”
>”That’s against the rules.”
>”So what?”
>”Aghh...”
>Megumi’s face is so close. A situation like this is so hard to get. I don’t want to let go, so I refuse to close my eyes.
>Embarrassed by my staring, Megumi can’t stand it anymore and turns her face away.
>”Look over here.”
>”I just don’t like this.”
>”You can’t kiss after all.”
>”We can’t kiss anyway. Not at this rate.”
>”That’s not the problem here...”
>Megumi finally broke the rules.
>She threw away this scene where we were so close to each other.
>”That is the problem...even though we’re not doing anything, don’t stare at me like that.”
>”I can’t let that happen. I want to write down your expression into the scenario.”
>So I revise the rules up until now.
>I switch the roles of Meguri and the protagonist.
>”You can just use your imagination for that. That way you can really be creative.”
>”Nope. After all, this is a game, not a novel.”
>”And?”
>”As long as there are drawings, describing people’s expressions simply affects the readers more than describing it in a complicated way that stimulates their imaginations.”
>”...that explanation was complicated and fit for a novel.”
>”Stop running away like that. Hurry up and look here, Megumi.”
>”Honestly...you really have been getting carried away lately, Tomoya-kun.”
>No, you're wrong, Megumi.
>It's not that I'm getting carried away. I just can't stop.
>When you're reading the script, your main heroine act is perfect.
>...no, you're becoming my main heroine.
>You're beautiful, cute, and moe.
>I just can't take my eyes off you. I don't want to let go of you.
>”...”
>”...”
>Our eyes open, our faces super close, we stare at each other.
>Those lips seem close enough to touch, but sadly, they’re just images on a screen...
Where are the other options?
It's not rape if it's consensual.
>”Hey.”
>”What is it?”
>”Why aren’t you here...”
>”Uh...”
>A lament comes form the speaker.
>”Why won’t you be here, right in front of me...”
>It wasn’t my voice.
>”Me-Megumi...umm, what was that just now...”
>”~~~!”
>”Ah.”
>But, before I could figure out the meaning…
>Suddenly, the screen shook, and with the sound of a slam, the image disappeared.
>...by closing the notebook PC, she had sealed the words that were to come after.
That's an old illustration, user. It's nice, though.
>Megumi gets a whole volume worth of spotlight
>not even an illustration of Eriri
Sad.
Eriri is for anal.
...
>Saekano has become worse than Nisekoi
My fucking heart
But OP, Tomoya's pussy and he can't see those options yet.
Eriri a shit
What series are you reading?
This.
Turn 360 degrees and walk away.
Came back to see Eririfags' tears, what a time to be alive.
>wanting to play a bad and inferior route
Egoistic Lily was shit.
>rough around the edges, but a great route
No.
Where's the choice that will let me pick a non-boring heroine?
There's 3 of them.
He's already picked the "fuck Megumi" option.
Kazuki, please stop this already.
Kazuki who?
Fpbp.
Childish just like their girl. We Utahafags take it easy.
>”Look over here.”
>”I just don’t like this.”
>”You can’t kiss after all.”
>”We can’t kiss anyway. Not at this rate.”
My God, she wants it bad.
>Further investigations hinted that Megumi put the gum syrup, maple syrup, and six sugar sticks from the table inside the coffee.
What was her problem?
Megumi wishes you a Merry Christmas.
Run away
She's only playing a role. Pay attention.
Saekano meme of the year
>Megumi's just acting
Yes, slamming her laptop was all for a role.
literally >>>/reddit/ the girl
One through three.
She is only acting. She isn't that thirsty for Tomoya cock.
Just because she isn't a caricature that externalizes all her feelings doesn't mean she doesn't have them.
They are literally acting out the game.
But she is already my wife.
>>>/reddit/
>my nigga!
The one who goes Bang! Bang!
Megumifags and Utahafags get along, unlike the retarded Eririfags.
She needs a big dose of vitamin D.
She's jealous of Iori getting all lovey-dovey with Tomoya.
Not to mention Michirufags.
Her recent parts have been rather fun.
But it's not like he's gay.
...
She should have gotten more screentime.
Megumi is such a great actor, her jealousy goes completely unnoticed. She has been good at jealousy scenes as of late.
Megumi does realize that touching Tomoya results in a broken Eriri and an ocean of drama right?
utaha > megumi > sonoko > michiru > band > shit > eriri
Yes. She's trying to get around it by avoiding Eriri seeing them together.
>"Anyway, I'm going ahead. Also, don't talk to me too much at school. People might spread rumors if they see us leaving school together."
>Keeping the low tension until the very end, Megumi tries to leave me behind and head to school.
>"It's no big deal. Up until now no one ever cared about us being together."
>"That can't happen anymore..."
>"Huh, why?"
>"Because...I don't want her to see us as we are now."
>"...I see."
>Who do you mean by "her"?
>"Like, it'd just be kind of hard to explain..."
>"Uh-huh, I guess."
>Really, who?
>"Anyway, later."
>"Yeah, later."
>Who!?
Eriri will smell his seed on Megumi. Girls are more sensitive, all Eriri would need is one gaze at them.
She's lucky Tomoya decided to do the kiss scene over Skype instead of doing it personally. He would've fucked Megumi on the spot.
Megumi would have let him though.
