Honestly sad to say im dropping this, had fun but this whole newspaper club arc has just been utterly pointless to me. Condemn them on one end, acknowledge that they are doing something fucked up, and then.... help them avoid any rammifications and backlash?
It feels like we are suddenly stuck in a linear storyline where mc has to do the quest assigned by the teacher and not think for himself, get that for some people this is gonna be fine, but if its an indication of plot lines to come, id rather just get out early.
Are people really not paying attention? The MC is helping them out strictly for his own ends. Him and the girls.
If the newspaper club gets downgraded to a more informal hobby group or society, they'll keep chasing scandals and gossip. Both because it's all they can think to do, and out of desperation to be a club again. And with paparazzi prowling the school at all times, the three would have to be perpetually watching their backs; it would only be a matter of time until their relationship gets outed.
So instead they're helping the club with the intention of making the school newspaper a
proper newspaper again. Doing that will encourage them to stop chasing gossip and scandal,
and it will make the club indebted to the trio. Meaning
much less likely to write anything nasty about the trio without their knowledge. Especially if the one sister actually gets invested in the club and decides to stick around.
