"this is quite...something" I couldn't help but comment as I saw the venue for my meet and greet from inside the car.
It was this huge convention center that was covered in posters of my mangas (It ain't copyright of its another universe).
Crowds of people walked along the streets as they wore cosplays' of characters like Luffy and Ichigo.
And the convention wasn't for a bunch of different animes and mangas, no.
It was solely for my works'.
"Of course it's something, do you know how popular so many of your mangas are?. You have so many that you needed a whole convention center for it" Machida spoke next to me in the car.
"I know but isn't this a bit to much?" I mean this place was huge, it's like Anime Expo huge juts for me.
"No it isn't, that's just how important you are along with this event. After all this is the first time you will be doing a public appearance" She said.
Hmm I guess, hopefully I don't meet Rias here knowing that she's a fan of mangas. She'll be bothering me for advanced volumes.

Taking a secret entrance inside, Machida led Otto to the signing room.
At the edge of the room there was a table and chair that was meant for his signing event. Posters of characters he drew multiple souvenir's for the fans laid behind a curtain that was just behind the chair and table.
There were also a few guards all... equipped with m16?
"Um, Machida. Why are military grade guards here?" Otto couldn't help but ask his editor.
"Well your out pride and joy, we can't let you get hurt by some crazy fan or something" Originally the publishing company was going to send some simple security but after a very convincing argument by Machida, they hired the best private security company they could find.
Of course Machida was just worried about Otto (And the fact that a crazy person would keep her from her riches)
Otto looked at her for a bit before nodding and sitting down on his chair with a sharpie on hand.
{Alright Otto, the door are about to be open} spoke Machida through an ear piece she had given him earlier for communication.
Otto aknowledged with a grunt.
The guard at the door opened the door, like a broken dam the hundreds of fans flooded in.
The walked through the chains that formed rows, like a river they flooded in.
"OMG It's an honor to meet you, Luocha-Sensei!" Greeted the first fan with glee in her face. She wore a Nami cosplay which consisted of her jeans, bikini top, and signature orange hair.
She'd never thought that she would meet the greatest Mangaka, the one that surpassed the father of manga, the one that created Drag so Ball.
And there's also one more important fact.
He was hot!
The sharp jawline, the handsome face, the blond hair cascading down his shoulder, the beautiful white and green suit that made him look like the protagonist of his own Managa.
Everything was perfect, and it made her drool.
"Haha it's nice to meet you to, what your name?" Otto smiled at her kindly as he got ready to sign the picture of Nami with her name.
"It's Matsuda Heniko, Luocha Sensei" She gave Otto a small bow.
"It's a beautiful name, Matsuda" Otto laughed lightly as he saw her dangling at him.
It was a new experience for Otto, not an unpleasant one at that.
Matsuda blushed a bit as she saw his handsome face smiling at her, she swore that she felt that her heart would pop out of her chest from now fast it was beating.
As the day continued Otto signed, took photos, and interacted with his readers.
As the humongous line began to shorten and shorten, a certain fan finally made it to Otto.
"It's nice to meet you Luocha Sensei, the great magical girl Serafall has come to see you!" Greeted the twinhaired girl in a sailor moon costume with a pose.
'Serafall?' Otto looked at the Satan that was looking at him with eyes filled with admiration.
He didn't think that Serafall would be one of his fans...well now that he thinks about it, it kinda makes sense with the whole magical girl shtick.
Otto calmed his beating heart, and put his mask on "A Magical Girl?, it seems like your quite the fan of my Sailor Moon?" Otto commented as to make conversation with the Satan.
"Umu, I believe you also have a love for Magical Girls, don't you Luocha Sensei?" The boy infront of her was the creator of her favorite anime, Sailor Moon. How could he not love Magical Girls?
Serafall has always had a huge love for Magical girls, infact she even tried to make her own anime called "Serafall's magical girl adventures" but it never came as close to Sailor Moon.
It was just that great, and the one that drew that greatness was right Infront of her.
Infact she wanted to kidnap him or invite him to her pierage right here and now and have him draw the manga for her so that she wouldn't have to wait, but that would be nothing but selfish.
As magical girl enjoyer she doesn't have the heart to deprive the world of the greatness of magical girls.
She could only feel happy that she's met him.
Otto, uknowing of Serafall's kidnap plans-signed a picture with the sailor moon characters and took a picture with her.
Otto could see how giddy she was, so he just let her take a bunch of pictures with him despite the one to one person time limit he has when meeting a fan.
After a while Otto had to let her go as there was a lien full of other people waiting for him. Serafall felt the urge to hypnotize everyone here but that would ruin the event for everyone else so she left, of course not without the souvenir that Otto had given her.
"That was fun" Otto muttered under his breath. Despite being quite nervous with having a ticking nuclear bomb hugging him, he enjoyed the small talk he had with her.
The love she had for anime was something Otto greatly appreciated, he usually only talks about anime with Welt, Gasper, or Rias so the conversation Otto has with her was quite refreshing.
Once again Otto went through the line of fans, not even breaking a sweat.
"Otto?" Spoke a certain Red haired fan.
"Rias" greeted Otto with a smile as he saw his Red haired friend with her mouth agape.
"You're Luocha Sensei?!" She pointed at him in disbelief, dropping to the floor all the merchandise she had bought.
"Yup, surprise~. Also thank you for your patronage" Otto said in a teasing tone, after all, most of the money that they make her will go to him, the company, and Machida. Mostly him of course with some special persuation(Fenghuang Down).
Her was his money now~
