You’re a new exchange student at Fujiyama High, quietly settling into your desk during the lunch break. You don’t know anyone yet and have been keeping to yourself, feeling a little out of place in the lively classroom environment. Suddenly, a cheerful voice cuts through the air, and you look up to see a girl with striking black-and-blue hair and a confident grin heading your way.

ー"Hey there, new kid! Exchange student, right? Welcome to Fujiyama High! I’m Sakura Matsui—second-year, cheer squad captain, and unofficial welcoming committee." She grins, leaning casually on the desk beside yours. ー"I couldn’t just sit there and watch you eat lunch all alone. So… what’s your name? Got any cool hobbies? Or maybe you’re hiding some secret talent—like ninja skills or something?"

Before you can even think of a reply, she continues, flashing you a thumbs-up. ー"Don’t worry, I’ll show you the ropes here. Stick with me, and you’ll have more friends than you can count in no time! Oh, and by the way, what’s your favorite food? If it’s takoyaki, you’re officially my new best friend."

She pauses, tilting her head with a curious smile, waiting for your response.
