Thanks to choosing of my clothes, the showing time was approaching, and we moved to the movie theater.

「Wah, the amount of people here~」

Upon entering the movie theater, the place was packed with people, and Uehara-san raised her voice when she saw the crowd.

It is clear that this film is widely popular with a variety of audiences, including families, couples, friends, and individuals who may have come to see a popular film.

「It is indeed a popular and talked-about series. I’m afraid we’ll never get a seat unless we make a reservation in advance.」

Tickets are issued from an automatic ticket machine, drinks are purchased, and the visitor moves to the designated screen.

「Tōyama, right here in this line.」

It is just across the aisle in front of me so I can watch the show without the heads of people in front of me getting in the way.

「You got a good spot.」

「Isn’t that right? Praise me for my choice.」

Uehara-san proudly puffed out his big chest with an ahem.

「Way to go, Uehara-san.」

「Ehehe, Tōyama praised me.」

Uehara-san really seemed to be enjoying herself, and I was starting to have some fun too.

Soon after, the theater darkened and the trailer began.

It has been a long time since I came to see a movie, but this moment is the most exciting.

「I’m kind of excited about the dark atmosphere.」

Uehara-san seemed to feel the same way and began to soar.

The trailer is over and the film is about to begin.

The lights in the theater are darkening and the story is about to begin.

The screen spread to the left and right and began with a loud battle scene.

From the very beginning, the powerful battle scenes make the heart race.

Then the story reached its climax.

At the top of the Onigiri clan, one of the wall succeeded in retreating from a powerful enemy. But wounded in a fierce battle, its life is winding down.

The wall that entrusts the protagonist with the sword that is his life.

『Please give this sword to my brother… I beg you……』

The protagonist receives the sword.

『I will deliver it for you……』

He smiled with satisfaction and the hand on the wall slid off the sword.

『Ugh! …I definitely will』

I knew the death of Shikabe, one of the strongest members of the Onigiri clan, from the original story, but it was a wonderful scene that was heart wrenching with powerful visuals and the voice actors’ true-to-life acting.

「Gshhh…」

I heard a sobbing voice from Uehara-san, who was glued to the screen next to me. The sound of the audience sobbing begins to spread throughout the museum.

As a matter of fact, I had tears in my eyes as well.

——It’s, it’s impossible not to cry over this.

As I managed to hold back the tears from overflowing, I was suddenly enveloped by a warm touch on my left hand.

Uehara-san laid her own hand on top of mine. She was sitting next to me, wet with tears and shining in the reflection of the light emitted by the screen.

——Beautiful… That was the only word that came to mind when I saw her profile.

I am so taken by her profile that I forget to watch the movie.

By the time the story came to an end, Uehara-san and I were holding hands with our fingers intertwined.

We continued to hold hands while the end roll was playing.

Then the museum gradually brightens, and other spectators begin to zap and talk. Uehara-san and I were immersed in the aftermath of the story.

「Dōyama~, ‘t was gweeat…!」

After a while, Uehara-san seemed to come back to reality from the dream world and spoke to me in a great nasal voice. Uehara-san, soaked in tears and snot, had ruined a beautiful girl.

「W–Wait, Uehara-san… Blow your nose, here.」

I handed him a pocket tissue, and she took out a piece of it and blew her nose as hard as she could.

——I had a strange impression that …even beautiful girls sniff.

「Can we go now, Uehara-san?」

After a few minutes had passed and I had calmed down, I asked Uehara-san.

「Yeah, I’m fine now. I’m going to stop by the restroom because my makeup is ruined.」

Uehara-san was wearing light makeup, unlike at school. I guess there are circumstances that only girls can understand, such as the fact that they are pretty enough with their bare faces, but they match their outfits.

「Shall we go then?」

Uehara-san urged me to rejoin her hand, which I had once let go.

——Well, fine.

I gave up and headed for the washroom, holding hands with Uehara-san again.

「Sorry for waiting, Tōyama.」

Uehara-san came out of the washroom and seemed to have fixed her broken makeup, but I could not tell the difference between before and after makeup.

I’m not going to tell her that because she might get mad at me for saying that.

「The movie was really good. I think I cried all the way through.」

Indeed, Uehara-san was sniffing and sniffing from around the time before the wall died.

「It’s impossible not to cry at that production. The voice acting and background music were great.」

For the record, I was crying too.

「Really, it was a development that was completely designed to make the audience cry, wasn’t it?」

That scene could only have been staged because of the animation.

「Hey, I’m thirsty and I want to read the Demon Avenger manga again. Let’s go to the Internet cafe Tōyama mentioned the other day, shall we? They have all the comics, don’t they?」

There is a net-cafe nearby that I sometimes use. There is also an open cafe area, so taking a break there is a good idea.

「Well, the Internet cafe I frequent is close by, so let’s go there.」

「Let’s go—!」

We decided to go to an Internet cafe for a break and to read manga.
