The Miracle Club—that's the name of Kathy Yang's team. Let's start by introducing the members.
Chubby kid, goes by Max. Miracle Club's number one muscle (debatable) and heavy lifter (definitely). Rumor has it his dad is a hardcore mecha model collector, so he's pretty chill about Max messing with gadgets. As long as Max doesn't dismantle his dad's Supreme Gundam, everything's cool. That's how Max became one of the first members and a key conduit whenever the Club Leader uses her powers.
Glasses kid—real name Hao, nickname Mickey. Miracle Club's top strategist (questionable) and wallet (for sure). Born into a rich family; his parents are business whizzes but too busy to hang out, so they shower him with cash to make up for it. His allowance is way more than a college student's monthly budget, and as long as he doesn't blow it on drugs or gambling, he's got unlimited funds.
One brain, one brawn (sort of), both were Kathy Yang's classmates back in elementary. If Kathy's a Pokémon trainer, these two are her Squirtle and Charmander—the Miracle Club's right-hand duo.
Now for Kathy Yang—the Club Leader, wielder of mysterious powers (allegedly), and certified taskmaster (definitely). She built the Miracle Club from scratch, hustling since elementary school, growing the team with help from her muscle Max and financier Mickey.
At its peak, the Club had over fifty members with all kinds of costumes and props. They even joined major cosplay events and built up a fanbase. That website? It was launched during this golden era. The homepage flashes 'Miracle Club' in giant letters, with a long list of names like Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, Luffy, Nami, Robin, Gai Nie, Chilian, Li Xiaoyao, Princess Taiping—all key members from back then.
"So it's a cosplay club?" Jill glanced at the little girl. "Not bad, kid. Running such a big group at your age—pretty impressive."
"Heh, of course! But we're not just any cosplay club—we're the Miracle Club!" The little girl, clearly proud, still tried to act cool, coughing twice. "We just use cosplay to spread our message and ideals, that's all."
"What ideals?"
"Told you already—Miracle Club's mission is to bring miracles to the world!"
A year ago, the Miracle Club was just a bunch of well-known kids from Jiping City's elementary and middle schools. But not long ago, things took a wild turn. To put it simply: some quit, some betrayed, some went solo and started their own thing.
The biggest drama came after moving up to middle school, when the school started meddling with the Miracle Club’s leadership.
"Pfft, so suddenly they sent in some so-called guidance teacher, thinking they could replace our Club President and take over the Miracle Club? Dream on!" Kathy Yang, the Club President, crossed her arms and looked thoroughly unimpressed.
Yep, the school followed its usual routine for student clubs and sent a teacher to manage the Miracle Club. Naturally, that teacher saw themselves as the boss and put every member in the position of being led. To them, Kathy Yang was just another class monitor or committee member to supervise.
The teacher handed out tasks, the committee members nodded and followed along, then dutifully carried out the teacher’s instructions—just like the school’s original idea of club management.
But what the school didn’t expect was that Kathy Yang wasn’t having any of it. From casting roles and planning performances to costumes, props, and club activities—she insisted on calling the shots herself. No way was she letting some outsider boss her around.
The school tried everything to talk sense into her, but nothing worked. So before long, the Miracle Club went from being "an exemplary student society representing the spirit of modern youth" to "a disruptive clique undermining school discipline that needed strict control and punishment."
Still, the Miracle Club was a pretty influential team. The school couldn’t just shut it down—that would stir up a ton of drama. Plus, Kathy Yang’s dad was the police chief in Jiping City, so they couldn’t just punish her for no reason. So the grown-ups took a grown-up approach: split them up, scare them, suppress them, and let the club rot away.
With the school’s heavy-handed tactics, division and betrayal naturally followed.
Some folks from the Miracle Club were recruited and joined the school’s official fold, becoming part of the "glorious student society." They kept the Miracle Club name, claimed to be the real deal, and labeled Kathy Yang—the original president—as the oddball to be excluded. The school backed this group all the way, even throwing money at them, so lately they’ve been living it up.
