章節 264: Teaser
"It's okay, Senpai... Let me handle Sakura."
Nayuta responded with a smile.
"I... should be more suitable than Utaha-san for depicting Sakura after all..."
Hearing that, Homura fell silent.
Looking at Nayuta's smiling face, he just couldn't bring himself to say that he didn't want her to take responsibility for Sakura.
"It's alright, Senpai... I'm the most suitable person to take care of Sakura's storyline, aren't I?" Nayuta continued. "Besides, I have Senpai and everyone else with me... I'll be fine, don't worry."
Homura couldn't help but pat Nayuta on the head.
"Alright, I'll leave it to you, but don't push yourself..." Homura said gently.
"Um! Gotcha!"
Nayuta grinned happily, having unexpectedly received a head pat from her beloved senior. What a pleasant surprise!
Seeing Nayuta's goofy smile, Homura felt completely at ease.
"Homura, I'm done!" Eriri suddenly exclaimed.
Taking Eriri's new drawing, he saw the design of Artoria, which looked almost identical to what Homura remembered from his previous life, except Eriri's version was much more gorgeous. Even the strands of hair were meticulously detailed.
"Everyone, take a look! Our King of Knights!"
The girls took turns examining it.
Muramasa nodded in approval at first glance, while Elf crossed her arms with a smile.
"Hey, not bad at all! Imagine the battle scenes with this design, it will be a sight to behold." Elf said excitedly.
"Amazing..." Izumi murmured to herself. "This is... Kashiwagi Eri's drawing..."
However, after saying that, Izumi slapped her own cheek and carefully observed Eriri's various techniques in the drawing, silently learning.
Homura watched her focused state, nodding in satisfaction. Only people like her could make progress.
Mashiro, upon seeing Eriri's drawing, quickly picked up her own drawing tools. In no time, a newly drawn Artoria dressed in modern clothes emerged!
When it came to drawing from nothing, Mashiro couldn't quite match Eriri. However, when drawing based on existing drawings, Mashiro's abilities far surpassed Eriri's!
After everyone was done seeing the drawings of Artoria, Homura grinned and spoke up.
"What do you say, should we give our fans a little teaser?"
"Homura-kun, are you suggesting..." Megumi immediately understood his meaning. "To reveal these drawings?"
"Umu." Homura nodded. "We've all said we're starting to prepare a new work, so we should release something to tease them, right?"
"Senpai, you're so bad! But... I like it... heehee~" Nayuta suddenly smirked.
Elf also had a mischievous look on her face, while the others appeared resigned but eventually agreed with his suggestion. After all, seeing people's reactions would be quite interesting.
"Eriri!" Homura turned to Eriri abruptly. "You're in charge of posting it!"
"Me?" Eriri pointed at herself.
"Of course, it's your drawing, who else should post it?" Homura retorted, then he turned to Mashiro. "Mashiro, you can post the one you drew yourself."
"Won't this confuse everyone? One in medieval armor and one in modern clothing, both supposed to be the same person. People might have a lot of questions, won't they?" Nanami asked with a confused tone.
Upon hearing her question, Homura, Utaha, and Elf exchanged glances, all wearing sly smiles.
"That's even better! We'll post it without explaining. It's good to leave people curious; spontaneous discussions generate a lot of buzz." Elf chuckled.
Hearing that, Nanami nodded in a somewhat understanding manner. After all, she was relatively new to this industry and had a straightforward mindset. Therefore, understanding even a bit was already a good start.
"It's just a simple psychological trick..." Utaha explained. "Having two different designs for the same character is bound to raise some questions, like what kind of work it is. If we don't explain it, curious people will start discussing it, and it will generate hype for our work. In this way... we can get more and more people to pay attention to our new work."
Nanami finally understood their tactic. They were using everyone's curiosity to grab their attention.
"With our already significant fame, this curiosity effect works really well. Of course, with such a perfect character, sparking discussions is inevitable..." Homura added.
"Eriri, Mashiro, let's get started!" Homura grinned.
'Speaking of which... it feels like he is getting more and more enthusiastic about this kind of stuff. Does it really bring that much joy? Obviously... it does.'
Thinking like that, Utaha chuckled, while Eriri rolled her eyes.
Without delay, Eriri and Mashiro began typing their posts.

[Comment 6: Nah, that's just how it is, y'know? Kashiwagi Eri-sensei handling the character design and the reveal herself is totally normal.]
[Comment 7: Yo, there's something off about Shiina Mashiro-sensei's version.]

"Homura-kun is up to his tricks again..."
Seeing people's comments online, Megumi muttered and sighed.
"Heh, I'm just interacting with everyone. Don't you see they're all happy every time I release new stuff?"
"That's right!" Elf also laughed. "My slaves are also happy and asking me for more info."
"Naturally, we won't tell them..." Homura added.
The two exchanged glances and chuckled mischievously.
The other girls had disbelieving expressions.
Homura and Elf's strange hobby was becoming more strange!
"Were the fans of Another Dimension always like this?" Izumi said with embarrassment.
"Ever since we formed Another Dimension, our promotion has always been on our blogs. It might seem simple, but it spreads really well..." Eriri sighed.
"Well, our fans are just cuties, y'know. As long as our work touches them, they'll spontaneously promote it for us." Utaha smiled.
"Yep, as long as the quality of our work is the best, of course."
Homura spoke firmly to everyone.
"In this internet era, you'll never be buried if your work is good enough."
