“Sorry, I’m going out with my friends today.” This was what Tendou Susumu, the popular protagonist, told the girls. That voice woke up something in me, Jimichi Ikuto, someone who was simply leading an ordinary life, and spurned me to action. I got my hair done and dyed it a bit, switched from glasses to contacts, then finally made the most out of my parent’s connections. I, who had changed a lot in both appearance and personality, had gathered people around me. However, I wasn’t interested in them at all. What caught my attention more were the four female students that surrounded Susumu Tendou. Although apparently, all of them took a liking to Tendou. But you, why the hell are you like that? If you just kept your mouth shut and had let the things stay as it was, it would be a normal, happy ending. Ah, you were the one at fault, weren’t you? Those girls came to me because you kept on making choices like that. This was the first time I had come this far…hmm? What was I talking about? I didn’t even know anymore. But for some reason, I just felt compelled to say this. “Welcome, to the Bad End Route.”

“Cuz I looooove you, Senpai!” I’m Tomoki Yuuki, a normal second-year student in high school. Perfectly normal, if not for the fact that everyone avoids me like the plague because I look like I’m out for blood. The only exception is the typical novel protagonist chad Ike Haruba. But one day, his sister Ike Touka confessed to me! This chick just met me yesterday, what’s she going on about?! In any case, I decided to be her fake boyfriend on account of my friendship with Haruba. But now even Haruba’s idol-tier childhood friend and a smoking hot teacher is getting involved with me?! Hold up, this ain’t a romcom wet dream! I mean, there’s no way a sidekick like me could be popular, right?
