Akg sat on the porch, chewing slowly on the last pancake Shizuka had brought over. The sun had started to dip behind the rooftops, casting warm gold across Nerima's quiet streets.
He couldn't stop thinking about this world. Shizuka. Nobita. Doraemon. He'd watched them all growing up, but now he was in it. Living it. And yet, there was something odd.
This wasn't just a carbon copy of the show. Things felt... more vivid. The people more alive. The stakes, somehow, higher.
Then it happened.
A sudden beep echoed in his mind, clear as a bell.
> DING!
Anime King System Activated.
Welcome, Host: Akg.
Mission: Conquer the hearts of key female leads to become the ultimate Anime King.
Primary Target 1: Shizuka Minamoto
Sub Goal: Increase "Heart Points" through charm, actions, and bonding.

Akg nearly dropped the plate.
"What... the heck?" he said aloud.
> System Online. You died heroically in your previous world. Your soul resonance qualifies you for a rare system class given by god. This world may seem peaceful but filled with adventures so ,emotional strength creates real power here.
Begin earning Heart Points (HP) now.
He stared into the air, where a translucent interface hovered like a floating game menu. His name, a simple status bar, and one line blinked in bold pink:
Target: Shizuka Minamoto – Affection: 50/100 (Friendly)
"No way... I've got a dating sim system inside Doraemon?" he muttered.
> Correct. However, this is not a shallow harem system. Building genuine bonds earns greater power, story control, and deeper emotional insight. Choose wisely.
He blinked.
"…So if I win hearts—I win the game?"
> Winning hearts may change destinies.
Unlock hidden arcs.
Overwrite canon.
Possibly... become the true main character.
Akg sat down hard, the weight of it all hitting him.
He was just a orphan. No family. No gadgets. Just a quiet house and a second chance. But now—he had the one thing most people in this world didn't.
A way to change everything.
The system beeped again.
> New Side Mission Unlocked!
"First Impression Matters"
Objective: Make Shizuka genuinely laugh within 24 hours.
Reward: +10 HP, Minor Stat Boost (Charisma) , 10 million youn.
He stared at the screen, then at the street where Shizuka had disappeared.
"…A laugh, huh?"
A slow grin spread across his face.
"Challenge accepted."
