Part 4

    "What's wrong with you guys !!"

    The moment we sat across from each other in the coffee shop, she promptly exploded in anger.

    "You're sleeping or dozing off in your general education and major classes, and you're barely taking any classes at all!"

    Certainly, the falling asleep in class by the Kitayama members was not something that had started today.

    Kawasegawa pointed out the preceding lesson. In yesterday's classroom lecture on film shooting, all three of them, except me, were dozing off, which was not something we could show to others.

    "Sorry, there's a reason for this."

    "What's that"

    Anyway, I was thinking of consulting with Kawasegawa.

    This spring, when we’re in second year, we'll start filming a full-fledged feature film. She will be the core of the team as she has a wealth of knowledge that will require more specialized knowledge.

    We are taking a class for it now, but we are in this situation because we are working day and night on the game.

    Therefore, with or without her support, there would be a big difference in the way we would proceed with our work.

    "...Yes. I'm not sure what the solution is, but it certainly sounds like a priority."

    If you talk to her properly, she will understand, that is really good trait about Kawasegawa.

    "Because it's about you, I'm sure you've tried everything else you can think of, haven't you?"

    "Y-Yeah"

    "All right. So if you're working on something, I can help."

    Then she sighed lightly,

    "Apart from myself, I can't help about his parents."

    She was also aware of Tsurayuki's situation.

    "Then, it's about class..."

    For the time being, Kawasegawa will be reviewing the content of the class.

    She also showed me her notes on the classes she had taken so far, and as expected, they were neatly written.

    For the time being, I guess this will give me peace of mind about the class...

    "On top of that, I have one more favor to ask of you."

    "There's more?"

    There was a little bit of a gamble about asking her to do this.

    However, considering what she had created so far and its characteristics, I thought it would be a very interesting choice.

    "What's that, the opening movie?"

    "It's the first part of the game that shows the title and staff credits. It's sometimes used as a trailer for promotional purposes."

    "He~e, the game has some unusual specifications."

    I showed the movie made by Shinnichisha on the laptop I brought. Even now and in the past, this person is the creator of the most popular OP movies for Bishojou Games.

    "... It's pretty original."

    "Of course, I'm not asking you to make something of this quality. I'm just trying to give you an idea of what it's going to be like."

    Kawasegawa, who is enthusiastic about studying, made notes in her notebook while repeating and stopping the playback for each cut.

    "I see, you manage and move still images and objects of characters with keyframes, and compose them to music using kinetic typography."

     "...Etto, I think that's probably the case."

    This is why the ones who can study are... Well, that's why it's so helpful.

    "I will help. I'm willing to take it if Hashiba can give me some support."

    "Of course! Thank you, you saved us."

    "W-Well... you've been a great help. If you ever need help again, just ask. Don't come when it's too late or anything."

    Kawasegawa replied, her face reddening strangely.

    "So? I wonder if the production of the game is going well. I'm sure you're doing fine, since you're the one who's doing it."

    She looked at me as if to say that is natural.

    "Y-yeah... well"

    I slurred my words a bit, which was unusual for me.
