Chizuru; Yanagi--

Jin; It’s fine.

Yanagi; Hahaha, ha… You and Minato can make girls happy too, though?


Jin; ………

Jin; ...If you don’t intend to contribute to the recovery from this incident, at least look for a successor for H3. That’s the responsibility of the one who’s leaving their role, no?

Yanagi; Responsibility…

Jin; We need to end this chaos and restore peace to the school. Cooperate, okay?

A pressure I couldn’t say no to. That was exactly the same as when I was in black dorm. It’s funny, he’s so compelling it makes his opponent feel secure. Saying he’s giving me a chance to fulfill my responsibility, it seems he’s already decided that this is what’s going to happen.

Yanagi; ...I understand. Although I don’t think I’m qualified for recruiting.

Jin; Excellent. I’ll prepare an opportunity for you to search for a successor. This is a critical project to save not only the female students of Shinonome Gakuen, but the entire country!

--17:15. “Shinonome-based humanity sustainment plan” commences.

After Yanagi left the room, another took his place. Heaven’s flower garden, “Sucré Nuage”, Minato appeared. Chizuru showed him in, bowed and left the room.

Jin; What do you think of the current circumstances?


Minato; Mm~ I don’t really understand hard stuff, but… I’ll be lonely if I can’t hang out with Yanagi anymore. I can still hang out with girls, but I think it’s more fun when Yanagi’s there too.

Jin; Do you want Hanabusa to return to H3?

Minato; Hmm. If Yanagi doesn’t want to come back, there’s nothing we can do. If Yanagi found something else he thinks is fun, that’s what's most important~


Jin; Fu… I see. That’s fine, then. Aside from forcing him to come back, all we can do now is quickly look for a successor to sustain the peace. Ushiwaka, as a member of H3, I’d like to request your cooperation as well.


Minato; If that’ll make Yanagi happy, I’ll help out~
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
The next morning--

It’s unbelievable, but I’m running without anyone chasing me.

Touji; Hanabusa-senpai! You’re lagging behind! Come on, one, two! One, two!


Yanagi; Haa… haa… Wow, you’re really fast, Touji.

Touji; I train my strength and endurance daily. If you continue to run early in the morning every day, without losing your focus, you too could achieve this much before breakfast, Hanabusa-senpai!

Yanagi; Next up is meditation, then… push ups and sit ups, right? It’s probably going to be a lot slower with me here. Is that okay?

Touji; I usually complete this routine in 1 hour and 25 minutes, but…


Touji; An opportunity to train with Hanabusa-senpai is precious indeed. I will be content whether we are on schedule or not!

Yanagi; Thanks. I’ll do my best to catch up with you someday soon.

Touji; Haha, that’s the spirit, Hanabusa-senpai! Now, let’s give the last lap our all! One two, one two!
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
Scene; Second year classroom

Yanagi; yawn

Shinya; Ahaha, that was a big yawn. You look tired. Did you get enough sleep?

Yanagi; I got up early to work out today. I’ll probably go to bed early tonight, too. After school, I have to spread fertilizer for the gardening club, though.

Mikage; You’re maturing~ (What Mikage says here can either mean that a person is maturing, or that a flower is withering/dying.)

Shinya; Ehh, the club’s flowers are withering!? Yanagi-kun, let me spread some fertilizer too!

None of the flowers in the greenhouse were dying, though. But as I started to tell Shinya that, everyone’s phones started ringing. It sounded like a notification sound.

Shinya; Eh!? An invitation to “H3’s final breakup event… slash… new H3 candidate selection and cultivation tour”...?

Minato; Oh, this is what Jin-san was talking about the other day~ Yay, exciting~


Yanagi; (I see… Looks like Jin-senpai’s already started moving…)

Yanagi; Morning. Your lip gloss looks cute today.

Shion; ………

Yanagi; (Today, there were finally no ambushes from any honeys. Tomorrow I might be able to go to school using the main road instead of the back way.)

Once the aftermath of my press conference dies down, I can leave it behind me and forget about it. I thought I’d returned to my normal life, but…


Shinya; Shigure, give me a hand! Girls are passing out everywhere, from the gate to the courtyard!

Yanagi; (?)

Shigure; Inquiries about that have been flooding in since this morning. Although they’ve all been about female students…

Chizuru; Dragon King Corporation’s staff is collecting them as we speak.

Watching my flustered classmates from the corner of my eye, I whispered to Minato, who was actually in the classroom in the morning for once.

Yanagi; Minato, did something happen?

Minato; The girls in our school don’t have any energy. I think maybe they slept with their stomachs uncovered last night.

Yanagi; ………

Mikage; Aren’t you looking a little uneasy, Mr. Lady-killer?

Yanagi; Of course not?


Minato; If you sleep without covering your stomach your body gets cold. We have to warm the girls up.

Mikage; Oh really~ We’re going to need a huge hot water bottle~

Yanagi; Mikage, why don’t you help them out?


Mikage; My body temperature is pretty low.

I didn’t feel like any more banter, and let out a small sigh.

Yanagi; I don’t really understand what the problem is, so I’ll leave any medical issues to our doctor, Shinya. Wouldn’t he be better-suited to that than me?

Suppose the girls’ deteriorating condition is my fault. By saying “let’s leave it to someone else”, everyone will understand I’m not taking responsibility without my having to give a reason why. However, if I do anything further I feel like I’ll probably become even more like someone who that person hates.

Chizuru; Yanagi.

Yanagi; Hm? Ah, it’s rare for you to start a conversation with-

Chizuru; Jin-san would like an audience with you. He requests your presence in the third year classroom after school.

Without waiting for my answer, Chizuru walked away.

Mikage; Ooh~♪

Yanagi; sigh
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
Scene; Third year classroom

Jin; 60%. Do you know what that number represents?


The moment I entered the third year classroom, Jin-senpai threw this question at me. I could tell right away this was going to be trouble, but Chizuru was standing behind me as though blocking the door, so I couldn’t run away.


Yanagi; Um, what could it be… Is it the percentage of time you and Chizuru spend together in a day?

Jin; According to a survey by my company, it’s the ratio of single women. Currently, our country’s birth rate decreases every year, and in recent years it’s dropped below 1 million. If it continues to decline at this rate, it will threaten the survival of the nation.

Yanagi; I see, that’s a problem. So, why are you telling me this?

Chizuru; Presently, roughly 80% of Shinonome Gakuen’s female population is suffering from abnormal thirst and a decline in estrogen, as well as strange hallucinations of all men appearing to be vegetables, root vegetables and fruits.

Yanagi; Oh, really…?

Yanagi; (That must have been the cause of the uproar this morning.)

Jin; Furthermore, along with the decline in couples, the school’s happiness index has decreased sharply. If this continues, it will have an effect not only on Shinonome, but on our society as a whole! And this strange phenomenon only began after your press conference. You’re the cause. Do you disagree?


Yanagi; ……

I’d been evading the question, glossing over the truth and dropping the issue, but Jin-san was pinning me with a reproachful look that said he absolutely wouldn’t allow that.

Yanagi; That’s an unusual opinion for you, Jin-san. What makes you think that?


Jin; Never mind marriage, there is an increasing tendency for young people to think that even romance is too much trouble. But that isn’t the overwhelming opinion at Shinonome. Why is that? It’s because of you… Not only you, but H3 as a whole allows this school’s female students to feel hope and warmth.


Yanagi; I wasn’t playing with my kitties with such grandiose intentions.

Jin; It doesn’t matter what your intentions were, you played a significant role in this phenomenon, so you can’t just ignore the situation like you’re not involved.

Yanagi; You’re giving me too much credit. The girls may be a little upset right now, but as time passes they should return to normal, right?

Jin; …Hanabusa. You have a talent for making women happy.

Yanagi; ……

Yanagi; Ha, ahahaha!

-Hanabusa Yanagi emergency press conference-

Mamoru; This press conference was suddenly announced overnight, so even we are not sure what news is about to emerge.

camera shutter sounds

Mamoru; --Ah! Hanabusa-kun has appeared! Facing a large number of cameras and female fans, he’s casually taking the podium! Some believe it may be an engagement announcement or something similar. All the female students of Shinonome are waiting with baited breath!

Yanagi; --Thank you for taking the time out of your busy lives to gather here today. I wanted to tell everyone involved all at once--


Yanagi; Starting today, I’m disbanding the Weekly Girls.¹

Mamoru; Wha…! Wh-wh-what does this mean!? Shinonome Gakuen’s esteemed pheromone three, H3’s Hanabusa-kun has...! The disbandment of the Weekly Girls, different girls that Hanabusa-kun dates depending on the day of the week, has been announced by the man himself!

Screams and commotion filled the auditorium. A security guard held up a riot shield to block a female student, lost in a state of confusion, who was trying to storm the stage.


Yanagi; Honey, sweetie, kitty, sugar… it's time for us to part ways.

Female students A&B; ……!!!!!!

Girls collapse

Mamoru; Ah-------- Hanabusa-kun's sinful farewell wink is knocking girls down! Everyone, please be careful! Hanabusa-kun, please tell us how you came to this decision so suddenly! Could it be the rumours that you're engaged are true…!

Yanagi; ………

Yanagi; Until now, the smiles of all my kitties have made me happy. Thank you. I don't want you to feel betrayed, but… For everyone’s sake, I think we should stop trying to make up for one another’s loneliness.


Female student B; No way…… I hate this…!!!!!!

Female student C; If he doesn’t take away my loneliness, the world may as well end…!!!

Mamoru; The auditorium has descended into chaos! Everyone, please clear a path so those who have fainted can be carried out!


Yanagi; ………

Mamoru; H3! What will happen to H3?!

Yanagi; Mm… This is the world-famous Shinonome, so I’m sure someone can replace me.

It’s said that on that day, the agonized cries in Shinonome Gakuen’s auditorium were reminiscent of a scene in Hell.
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
“H3”.

Entertaining the female students of Shinonome Gakuen’s eyes, hearts, ears and bodies, the esteemed pheromone three - Heaven’s three.

Overwhelming financial strength! A champion’s aura he’s possessed since birth! If you’re under his protection, you’ll be kept safe by his family and followers for a lifetime! A magnanimity that implores you to entrust your entire mind and body to him! His baritone voice makes eardrums tremble, grants wings to all women who hear it. They call him--


The commanding leader, “Absolute Charisma”, Ryugasaki Jin!

Just looking at him improves your eyesight! His beauty is his strength! A beauty who makes even the goddess of beauty, Aphrodite, run away barefoot! The many selfish requests that fall from his lips awaken maternal instincts! They call him--


Heaven’s flower garden, “Sucré Nuage”, Ushiwaka Minato!²

If he’s standing, you’re enraptured! If he’s sitting, you’re admiring him! He opens his mouth and he’s a feminist! A natural Mr. Pheromone! If your eyes meet his for even a second, you’re in heaven! They call him--


The enchanting prince, “Decadent Stallion”, Hanabusa Yanagi!

But now, this H3 that provided mutual indulgence to the women of the world-

Is facing its demise.
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
Female students A&B; YNG! YNG! YNG! YNG!

The day after the press conference. Outside the second year elite classroom, a large crowd of girls was trying to force their way into the room in protest.

Mikage; Aha. The door looks like it’s going to break.

Shigure; You’re so easygoing… This is no environment to hold a class in.


Yanagi; ………

Shinya; Yanagi-kun, are you really retiring from H3?

Yanagi; Rather than retiring… H3 is just a name someone came up with at some point. It’s not like we intentionally formed a group.

Minato; Does this mean Jin-san and I are H2 now~?

Chizuru; Surely you’re not trying to suggest your charisma is on even remotely the same level as Jin-san’s?

Kasuka; It was strange from the start for Yanagi-kun, who dazzles everyone with his sublime spirit and goodwill, to be lumped together with such an incarnation of sloth as you.

Shion; ...Haa, how annoying.

Shigure; Speaking of which, what brought on the change of heart? No matter how many complaints we received, you were never willing to change your behaviour.

Yanagi; A certain person spoke to me. They told me that being kind to so many Honeys is wrong.

Minato; ……?

next → ✧༺♥༻✧

¹; Yanagi's Weekly Girls are explained in more detail in his character story. Minato tells the first years that Yanagi picked seven girls and nicknamed them Miss Monday, Miss Tuesday, etc. He got in trouble when Miss Friday got her important father to call the school and complain about him. Yanagi says she broke their promise, which was to not get serious about each other.
 
²; Sucré nuage translates to sugary cloud in French.

Scene; Gym, after the concert

Senri; Ushiwaka-senpaaaaaai! I’m so sorrrrrrrry!

Takaomi; ……Sorry. You were listening that time, weren’t you.


Minato; It’s okay~

Senri; Really? You’re not mad anymore?

Minato; No. I’m not mad.

Senri; As expected of a member of H3… He’s even an ikemen in his heart…!

Shigure; If the apologies are finished, I’d like to extend my thanks next. Ushiwaka, you really saved us today.

Touji; The tambourine at the end also echoed throughout the galaxy! The echo through Nito-kun’s microphone left a lasting impression; it was so amazing!

Senri; All the attendees were reeeeeeally into it too!


Takaomi; ...If the tambourine generates that much enthusiasm, I guess it’s not too bad.

Shigure; We’re going to celebrate the performance now. You’ll be joining us, won’t you?

Minato; Yeah. Thanks everyone.
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
Scene; Hallway

Mikage; Ah, welcome back.

Minato; Mikage…? What are you doing by my door?

Mikage; You dropped this in the gym, and a struggle broke out over it among the girls.

Minato; Ah, my disguise…

Mikage; Are you still going to use it?


Minato; ...No, it’s okay.

Mikage; I thought so. Your face is your talent.


Minato; My talent… --That’s right. I had something I was able to do, too.
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
Scene; Light music clubroom

Minato; So, although it wasn’t for very long, thank you for taking care of me-

Senri; Ushiwaka-senpai… Are you really quitting the light music club?

Minato; Yeah, I quit.

Because I understood something at the concert the other day.

Minato; (I don’t want my face to get fans excited, I want it to be the music performed by everyone in the light music club. So for everyone’s sake--)


Minato; (Because the light music club’s music is really amazing. They sparkle together.)

Touji; I thought I’d finally found a disguised brother-in-arms… It’s too bad.

Shigure; Please come hang out with us sometime. Just like watching the clouds, you can come here to listen to us play.

Takaomi; As long as you don’t get in the way.


Minato; Thanks, ehehe. I found one more fun thing to do ♪
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
Scene; Minato & Kasuka’s bathroom

Minato; Hmhmh~mHow many~ nights and~ ♪ how many~ ♪ ¹

Kasuka; ...What are you doing.

Minato; Ah, morning Kasuka~ Um, I thought I’d clean the mirror I painted black.

Kasuka; That’s fine, but please stop singing weird songs to yourself so early in the morning on a day off.

Minato; Eh~ isn’t it cool? It’s the song the light music club performed~ ♪ How many~

Kasuka; (...Just when I think he’s finally settled down, it’s like he comes back to life again.

Minato; --There, sparkling clean.

My own face was clearly reflected back at me. My talent. I don’t dislike this face anymore.


Minato; Maybe I’ll go look at the clouds in the courtyard.

-STORY CLEAR-

Female student D; I was thinking the same thing. Without Minato-kun here, I just feel kind of tired.

Female student E; I was at their last concert, so I was looking forward to this one whether Ushiwaka-senpai was here or not… what a shame.

Senri; (Aaaah… Aah no way, so many people are leaving…! But I don't know if I can stall anymore…!?!?)

Minato; (--What I'm capable of…)

I had an idea, drifting through my head.

Minato; (But I don't want to get in everyone's way again… But, but, if I don't do something, everyone will-!)

[Mikage; Why don’t you just do what you think you can? Without thinking too deeply.]

Minato; (--!)

Minato runs onstage

Takaomi, Senri & Touji; !?

Shigure; Ushiwaka…

Before I realized it, I was up onstage, face still covered. My body was moving freely--


Senri; (That’s!? The “prayer dance” I did in front of Senpai’s room…)

Female student A; Eh…? Wh-what’s that person doing…

Female student B; They came out all of a sudden and started dancing….

Minato; (This turned into quite the scene… But, for everyone’s sake, I will--)

I want to do something. As that feeling grew, I raised my tambourine and hit it harder-- and then.


Minato; --Ah.

The paper bag covering my face gently floated to the floor.

Female student A; No way! Minato-senpai!!

Female student B; Oh my god, he’s so hot~!!!

My face… has been exposed. But now I can see everyone’s smiles.

Minato; (So many people. So many voices. I’m getting used to being in the spotlight. What I can do now--)


The sound of the tambourine echoes. I’m moving my body “like I think I can”.

Senri; Ushiwaka-senpai…

Takaomi & Touji; ………

Female student A; Haa… Nice. Graceful limbs… A beautiful face and beautiful expressions… I’m being charmed by Minato-senpai…

Female student B; Minato-kun’s dancing reminds me of a contemporary dance I saw with Father in LA the other day.

Female student C; Even though the concert hasn’t started, we’re being treated to a performance.

Mamoru; (The equipment is fixed! You can start playing whenever you’re ready!)

Minato; (I’m glad I could make everyone excited again~ Oh, it looks like Shigure’s trying to say something?)

Shigure; (You saved us, Ushiwaka.)

Minato; !

Shigure; (We’re going to start the concert. ...Can I ask you to accompany us on the tambourine?)


Minato; --Yeah!


Mikage; C’mon, we're waiting ♪
