#IzuSeri is the easy mode pairing bc they're responsible adults

Anna, being mature for her age, quickly realized who liked who around her (mikorei, izuseri, sarumi, + other ships) and since everyone else (minus izuseri, maybe?) are being kinda childish, she'd help them all get together discreetly (after all, who would suspect what a kid like her actually wanted?)
Assuming this is Everybody Lives AU, imagine Anna post-ROK happy that all her important people are alive and well but also aware that they’re having various relationship issues that no one can be honest about. Maybe her first matchmaking is something unintentional, like she helps Kusanagi and Awashima (who, being mature adults, have already kinda realized their feelings they just haven’t fully acted upon them) get together and realizes that as a kid she has opportunities that adults don’t to try and get people together. Like Kusanagi was supposed to take her to the museum one day and they spot Awashima on a day off while on the way there, when she stops to talk to them Anna asks if Seri wants to come with them. Awashima’s surprised and so is Kusanagi, Awashima tries to be polite and turn her down but Anna looks crestfallen so she decides she can come along. When they get to the museum Anna gets entranced by a very red painting and she doesn’t notice until a bit later that Kusanagi and Awashima keep blushing and almost holding hands. When she spots them kissing beside a decorative fountain Anna feels this odd sense of accomplishment and realizes that she was able to help Izumo find happiness, and now she wants to do that for the rest of her friends. 
She probably tries with Fushimi and Yata next, because they’re stupider than Munakata and Mikoto and easier to trick. She could even use the same tactic as with Awashima and Kusanagi, waiting until Fushimi comes into the bar to meet Yata one day before shyly asking Yata to take her to like an amusement park or something. Yata’s surprised that Anna’s asking him but he isn’t going to say no, Fushimi walks in at just that time and Anna says ‘Saruhiko too.’ Fushimi’s all ‘Eh?’ and trying to refuse but he can’t say no to Anna’s hopeful face and she knows it. Luckily the Tunnel of Love ride is very red so Anna has an excuse to want to look at it, but she can’t ride it alone so she tells Misaki and Saruhiko to ride it and she can watch from outside. Yata gets all red and Fushimi says this is stupid but they do it anyway (unfortunately they come out of the tunnel arguing rather than kissing because Fushimi teased Yata for being too much of a virgin to go on this ride. Anna eventually has better luck making them go around the ferris wheel a few times, insisting on going on her own around as many times as it takes until she finally spots Yata and Fushimi in the car below her making out). 
Munakata and Mikoto are definitely the most difficult, because I think Mikoto would suspect her of an ulterior motive, he knows Anna pretty well. Even so Anna knows how to use her hopeful face to its best advantage so she denies having any secret plans and asks Mikoto to take her to the bookstore. The one easy part of her plan when it comes to Munakata and Mikoto is that she doesn’t even need to make up an excuse to get them together, she just needs to get Mikoto out of the bar and then wait patiently for Reisi to show up. Once Munakata makes an appearance she grabs his hand and Mikoto’s and has them read her a story together, looking like a cute little family. Every time they start to argue she jumps in with a question about the story and tries to get them to talk, excusing herself to go to the bathroom at very calculated moments in order to leave them alone together. It takes a few day trips before they finally get on with it and stop arguing long enough to confess their feelings but Anna’s patient, as long as everyone is happy in the end that’s all she wants.
