The large electronic bulletin board that was currently widespread in Japan â âAme no Sagumeâ or â39 Sagu-chanâ â was operated by the government.
There were some privately operated bulletin boards, but they were small in scale. The reason for this was because the isolation of the country had made it impossible to use large foreign servers.
Most of the large servers in Japan were destroyed in the turmoil of 30 years ago.
Therefore, when reconstruction began 30 years ago, the government was the first to create a large-scale server and bulletin board system in order to create a place for citizens to exchange information.
And when the number of users exceeds 10 million a day, the cost and maintenance of such a large-scale bulletin board system were not trivial.
Perhaps, for this reason, government bulletin boards still dominated the market share even after 30 years.
The difference from the old bulletin boards was that users were required to register as members using their national IDs in order to post on the boards.
Even though the BBS had a high degree of freedom, it was still run by the government, so that might be the least that could be done.
Some people said it was about government surveillance or freedom of speech, but if you have a problem with it, just donât use it.
If you just wanted to browse, you didnât have to register. By the way, Tsugumi was basically a professional viewer of message boards.
âHagakure Sakura⊠Is it?â
Tsugumi muttered to himself as he stared at the computer screen.
â [C-class] Hagakure Sakura 15 [Thread User]
Among the many Magical Girl-related threads, he found such letters. He wasnât doubting Mebuki, but he was astonished to see that it was really there. Where on earth would there be a demand for it?
This thread started a week ago. It was around the time he defeated Manticore. Thatâs probably why the title was âC-classâ.
Tsugumi swallowed and clicked on the title.

According to the other discussion group, that was a dare to hit.
Apparently, she planted a huge amount of fine threads in the Manticore at the time of contact.

There was also one story that said she brought a lot of meat to the riverside and barbecued it by herself, and bought a box of yatsuhashi (in a big cardboard box).

We use âsanâ because sheâs not the âkyapi-kyapiâ type like other Magical Girls, and sheâs a hard-core type of person.
Also because some people shouted that calling Sakura is disrespectful to the legend.

I didnât mean it that way.
A friend of mine who was watching the battle through a mirror near the site told me that the barrier wasnât lifted even after the battle was over. Normally, the barrier would be lifted immediately, right?
By the way, I looked it up, and there are several similar reports on social networking sites and such.
During those ten minutes, what in the world is she doingâ?

Was I exposed?
â â â â
After seeing that much, Tsugumi closed his laptop with a slam. In many ways, he couldnât watch anymore.
ââŠItâs embarrassing.â
He held his face in his hands as he said this. If it wasnât night, he might have groaned and rolled around on the floor. It was as if a stranger had forced him to play a humiliating game.
He got it now, so âHagakure Sakuraââ was a reasonable-looking girl in other peopleâs eyes. He felt both happy and somewhat empty, a delicate feeling.
The other thing that bothered him was the âGluttonyâ thing. He had expected that the predation scene would have been a big problem for his reputation, but it seemed that part of the scene had not been preserved in the video.
That helped him, but he was a little afraid that one day it would be exposed.
âBut, he was more favorable than he thought he would be.
Maybe thatâs because what he saw was a thread dedicated to âHagakure Sakuraâ. But he didnât think heâd be able to see the general thread on Magical Girls, he was so scared. If they criticized him harshly, even the stoic Tsugumi would be depressed.
As Tsugumi was holding his face in the same position, Bell, who had returned from going out, spoke to him.
âWhatâs with that strange look? Did you hurt your stomach?â
âBell-sama. âŠI just looked into the abyss for a moment.â
âWhat?â
Bell made a noise saying she didnât know what it meant. But he honestly didnât have the energy to explain anymore.
âLetâs not look at the internet for a while. The damage to my psyche would be too much.
But the next day, when Bell looked at his online history, she revealed the contents of the thread to him, laughing.
