The entire time Claus gave his ever-so-interesting lecture about the "Art" of Shonen manga, Rei simply nodded and pretended to listen, instead paying closer attention to his surroundings as they walked. After all, that's what a tour was for, right?

Yet, when it came to the end, he did not find himself sighing in relief as he had expected, but rather wanting to counter it with a short and simple statement of his own:

"Claus, I'd like to point something out to you. The standard formula of that genre is for the hero to be an ordinary individual that is given or born with some kind of special power. After this occurs, every major arc follows the plot of 'get defeated by the villain, train, win in some spectacular fashion.' I've read only three Shonen manga volumes in my life. The first Yu Yu Hakusho, the last Dragon Ball Z, and the third Bleach. Yet, the only differences are the mechanics used."

And then, there was silence. Sweet, sweet silence (if only for a moment before Claus responded, anyway.)

Claus looked a tad dumbstruck.
"That... is a really limited palette." He said, scratching his head.
Just then, an idea popped into his head.
"Hey, how about this? I've got a pretty good collection. If you want, you and I could just hunker down and watch shows some evening. Because trying to explain this stuff isn't exactly easy to someone who hasn't seen much." He reasoned.

The idea Claus came up with was received rather poorly in Rei's mind. Great, anime, hanging out with another male, and worst of all... a seemingly spacey one that owned a cat. However much he wanted to say no, however, the original bond regarding literature seemed to resonate. Maybe this was a chance to build off of that.

"I suppose we could, sure. Anyway, I suppose I should go, this tour is taking too long and I need to get to work."

And with that, the bluenette left.
