Anime Crossover: The people the Saniwa knows are all over Japan

"so cute."

As the bird crouched down, Karupin immediately jumped into her arms, letting her pat his head, scratch his chin, and stroke his fur, looking completely comfortable and content.

Rinko: "?"

Is Karupin like this all the time?

The last guest who came to our house happened to like cats and dogs. He saw that Karupin was cute and wanted to hug it, but he almost got a swipe of his claws from the cat.

Now he's nestled in that pretty young girl's arms, behaving like a little cat toy.

Could Karupin actually be a cat with a beautiful face?

After thinking for a moment, Rinko decided to give up on further consideration and bring the child into the house first.

"I'm back."

With Karupin in her arms, Asuka followed Rinko through the entryway and into the living room.

The man, who was propping his head up with his hand and reclining on the tatami mat watching TV, glanced at the door and exclaimed "Huh?"

"Rinko, do we have guests?"

The short-haired boy with dark green hair, who was sitting cross-legged next to him, also raised his cat-like eyes and looked over.

You can spot Karupin at a glance, cuddling with a pretty girl.

Huh? Did I see it wrong? Let me take another look.

The boy looked away, this time choosing to turn his head to look.

Then we discovered—

...It seems to be true.

"Yes, this is the little guest I brought back."

Rinko explained, "I was just robbed on the street, and this young girl helped me subdue the robber and came with me to the police station."

"Eh--"

Before helping with cooking in the kitchen, Nanako poked her head out and looked at her aunt with concern.

Nanjiro jumped up and rushed to Rinko, his face full of anxiety: "Rinko, are you alright?"

"It's nothing. The girl is very capable. We owe her a lot of help."

"That's good." Nanjiro visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Little Asuka, this is my buddy, Echizen Nanjiro,” Rinko introduced.

"This is Mononobe Asuka, a very cute little girl."

It's rare to see such a carefree man be serious; he solemnly thanks the bird.

Feiniao quickly waved his hand: "It was nothing."

She just tugged at him, and he plopped down on the ground.

She was really frail and weak.

"Speaking of which, was Nanjiro looking at something just now?"

Nanjiro's face stiffened, and just as he was about to explain, Rinko, with a gentle expression, grabbed his ear.

He immediately started howling.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! I didn't mean it, Rinko! Believe me, I was just watching a tennis match with Ryoma!"

Rinko kindly reminded him, "Nanjiro, you dropped your book on the floor."

Nanjiro: "..." Oh no!

Asuka blinked and sure enough, she saw an open book on the floor, filled with photos of swimsuit beauties with mosaics exclusive to the world of anime.

Nanako smiled helplessly and went back to the kitchen to keep busy.

The boy who had just sat next to Nanjiro also walked up to Asuka.

"I am Ryoma Echizen. Thank you for helping my mother."

The boy seemed unaccustomed to saying thank you, and his speech was somewhat awkward.

Asuka: "..." I just said it was "no big deal," so how should I reply this time?

"You're welcome~"

This statement should be universally applicable, right?

Ryoma did not notice that the girl was at a loss for words.

"Will Karupin be heavy? I'll carry it."

"Hey, okay."

Actually, it's not heavy at all. Compared to the cat teacher, Karupin is quite slim and slender.

But since the owner has said so, let's return the kitten.

Ryoma reached out, trying to scoop the cat-like creature, Karupin, out of the girl's arms.

As soon as his hand touched the chubby, white body, Karupin started meowing incessantly, clinging tightly to the pretty little girl's clothes and refusing to let go.

Longma withdrew his hand, and Karupin pretended to be obedient again.

Reach out and call out.

Stop now, put on an act.

Reaching out, "Meow meow meow."

Stop, sweetheart.

After several rounds of back and forth, Longma realized that he had fallen out of favor.

"Karubin, you don't want to sleep in the same bed with me tonight."

The brown and white Himalayan cat nestled in the bird's arms, giving its owner a haughty glance.

Karupin: "Meow meow meow." Whether or not Lord Karupin sleeps in the bed is not something his human can decide.

Ryoma, as if understanding the look in Cardin's eyes who had a new love interest: "..."
