“Getting sentimental?” 😭 no, what gave you that idea? One of my favorite stories in the whole contest just came to a close, I’m not crying, nope! Nothing gets me more emotional in stories like these than graduation scenes. 🎓 Before I continue with my full review, congrats on completing your entry. 👏🎉 It ended like it began, with Haruhi enjoying his magical girl obsession 🧚♀️ the biggest difference is that now he can do it without wearing a crazy disguise 🥸 he’s come full circle and so has Ichika. Balancing character growth and pacing within a 75k window is tough especially since this is a one-shot presumably, but you managed to write a really solid contender. Even if you weren’t such a great person to interact with, I’m certain I’d have nothing bad to say about Secret Otaku. 💯 I truly enjoyed it from start to finish. Best of luck going forward in the contest, my friend. Kitsune out. ✨
