SKB Short Story 5 - The Prodigal Daughter of Banryou-ji

summary of the final short story published in Dengeki Bunko, Mar 2019. starring tirol! takes place between volumes 3 and 4. contains very minimal main story spoilers.

OCHAGAMA TIROL: A merchant girl with a distinctive pink, jellyfish-like hairstyle. The great-grandchild of High Priest Ochagama. HIGH PRIEST OCHAGAMA: An old man with fuzzy white hair. A semi-immortal with great power who oversees Banryou-ji, and is currently over 140 years old. THES: A young boy shadowing the high priest. Despite his youth, he's a high-ranking trainee monk. STORY: In Iwate prefecture lies a sacred mountain - Mt. Banryou. The high priest who runs the head temple of all sects has come down with a 70-degree fever and is confined to bed. No remedies are working and his condition worsens by the minute. As everyone begins to lose hope, the high priest's great-granddaughter appears after having split from the temple 10 years ago.

As stated on the intro page, high priest ochagama is stuck in bed with a fever. the 70 degrees (CELCIUS) fever is no joke. the temple is full of people running around in a panic, all doing various things to try to help him like bringing food or changing the cold towel on his head. he seems to not be getting better no matter what anyone does.

The young monk Thes is making his way back after having gone to collect special herbs. thes is described as having superhuman abilities, like being able to run straight up the vertical mountainside. he wears a bright yellow robe with wide sleeves, and has a bob cut. like amli, he has straps on his eyes to keep them open (and on both, not just one).

Thes arrives and makes ochagama eat the herbs he brought. they're enbi's herbs* and are known for being a miracle cure-all, but even these don't help reduce his fever.

The priests argue over different ideas for what to do, but are stopped when a large man named Poclo walks in, who is a high ranking official. he gives a sarcastic greeting and states there's no point helping ochagama, since he's so old that he should have been expected to die any day now. because of poclo's position, he'd become the next head priest if ochagama were to die.

Tirol suddenly comes in and everyone is shocked. they all refer to her as "the young lady/milady." she points out their rudeness for not bowing to a descendant of the ochagama line and they all do so. however, she tells thes that he does not need to address her formally or bow to her.

Tirol says that the fever is being caused by a buildup of power inside the body, so they just need a way to absorb the excess power from high priest ochagama. this had happened to him before, and the cure was eating hellfire moss..... which only grows in weeping child ravine.

If high priest ochagama dies, thes must die as well as his shadow. because of this, he says he isn't scared to risk his life to do whatever it takes to save him. ...

Tirol and thes fly her new pink escargot plane to weeping child ravine. the plane is attacked by a swarm of umbrella octopi, but tirol blows some up with missiles and thes uses mantras (that sound like citymaker abilities) to explode them.

Thes thinks about their childhood together at the temple. since they were close in age, thes was assigned to be tirol's overseer. tirol would often drag him into situations they weren't supposed to be in. remembering it makes him feel a strange mix of emotions...

A pipe snake then bursts thru the clouds after them. thes says they need to eject and let the snake eat the snail shell part of the plane. tirol is very upset since she had just bought it and it cost many thousands of sols.

Thes has a dream where he remembers the night tirol ran away from banryou-ji. he wanted to come with her but knew he couldn't leave the temple. he wanted tirol to tell him to come along, but she didn't want him involved in her way of life. They hug, and he tells her to find new friends who will protect her on her journey.

He wakes up in a dimly lit cave with tirol. she tells him that they happened to land right on a spot where the hellfire moss was growing.

Tirol says that thes also broke out into a magic buildup-induced fever while unconscious, but she already cured it with the moss.

Thes asks how she knew about this treatment, and she explains how a boy with an impossible illness was once brought to their temple and high priest ochagama showed her the cure. the boy then turned out to have incredible latent powers, and became ochagama's shadow. as you'd guessed, it was thes himself.

Tirol has a dark spot on her skin from where she brushed against a poisonous plant. she pulls out one of milo's ampoules from her bag and uses it. she says she also has some explosives that bisco made.

Thes: "So you did indeed make some good friends after all." Tirol: "Huh?! ... It's just all happenstance. I don't think I'd call us 'friends'..." Thes: "I had heard whispers of it, but it seems it's true that you did make some truly incredible friends. ... To think that your first friends would be the man-eating Akaboshi Bisco and Nekoyanagi Milo... But I suppose you wouldn't have become friends with anyone if they were not like those two." Tirol: "The hell's that supposed to mean?!"

They return to the temple just in time to find poclo readying to kill ochagama with a poison injection. thes uses his powers to knock it away and it stabs poclo in the neck instead.

Tirol makes him beg for an ampoule to cure the poison, not letting up until he hands over 300k sols.

They give the high priest the moss and he starts feeling better instantly... but everyone rushes out of the room as they realize all of the stored up power in him is about to burst out.

A giant pink beam of light shoots up through the roof of the temple and into the sky. once it clears, thes rushes back in to check on ochagama, who seems to be in good spirits again.

Thes tells him that tirol came to visit and she's the one who came up with the plain to save him, but then they look around and realize she's gone.

Thes finds her at the gate. looking at her, tirol hasn't changed much visually in 10 years but it's clear how much stronger she's become as a person. Tirol: ".......Tell great-gramps I said hi..." Thes: "I will." Tirol: "...And you stay well too..." Thes: "I will." Silence. Thes: "Tell... Akaboshi and Nekoyanagi that I hope you all remain friends..." Tirol: "Ugh, tell them that yourself!"

After tirol leaves, some priests come running up to thes, saying they talked to ochagama about the issue of who his successor should be. they say he agreed to have thes become the official successor, which would prevent others like poclo from trying to assassinate him again to gain power for themselves.

Thes internally seems conflicted, as he understands why tirol would leave to see what's out in the world and not be confined to the area of the temple. however, he agrees to go talk to the high priest about the issue.

The priests take him away, thes giving one last look out to the desert and thinking that he'll one day see tirol again.

THE END

Other notes:

*Literally enbi-gusa, yet another mention of that fire god who mushroom keepers (at least bisco's tribe) worship.

It seems like most sect leaders don't think well of Amli and the Kusabira sect.

The citymaker command that thes uses is said to be a spell he learned directly from ochagama.

Tirol refers to her friendship with Bisco/Milo as "kusare en" just like Bisco did in the previous short story.

The way thes's POV of tirol is described, it seems like he's had a crush on her for a long time.

First impressions of Harvestella, Spring days 1-5 or so in game:

Note up front: I'm on day 11 now, and I actually really love it so far. I'm trying to avoid spoilers, because I only just heard about and started the game today.

I wake up in the midst of a chaotic event to an angel girl telling me I need to save the world, okay, this has happened to me before in games, like I Was A Teenage Exocolonist most recently, and I really loved that game, so I'm all for it. Same vibes for Harvestella's Quietus as IWATE's Glow season. Mysterious and dangerous to regular people so stay inside.

After I pass out again after talking to the angel girl, I'm awoken by a lady doctor atop a grassy knoll outside of town. Typical Japanese game where she's wearing ridiculous heels, but whatever, she makes sure I'm healthy after we go into town and that's all gravy.

Luckily the mayor swings by right as she's telling me I need to rest up and says, oh, I've got this abandoned shack on the outskirts of town just perfect for this. (I love a good abandoned shack, but let me tell you, this shack is nicer and bigger than my apartment. I need to find an abandoned shack to live in for real...) So we go to the shack and she teaches me to farm??? as any good doctor apparently recommends that you need to have something to live for in order to heal up?? Now I'm a farmer.

Suddenly, an explosion near by! Doctor Cres (actually just Cres), her brother Dim, and I go to check it out. Glowing meteor with a door in it and I go check it out, mostly because the angel girl told me I have to save the world so I'm playing earnestly like I'm listening to that sole guidance. There's a creature inside in a space suit! Dim doesn't want to help it because it could be the bad guys who cause Quietus, but Cres is with me that we should help. Serendipitously, I have this new abandoned shack that's perfect for this kind of situation.

Anyway, at the abandoned shack, we watch the alien sleep. I take quickly to the farming life and I also go outside and kill some local fauna nearby while collecting resources for creating. Big Stardew Valley vibes. Good good, that's what I'm here for. Combat is forgiving so that's a plus because I'm not here for a challenge, honestly.

After a day the space suit on the being disappears, and there's a pretty woman inside? Now I'm interested. She's not one of the bad guys, she's human, maybe from the future but she's not familiar with us, our clothes, our lifestyle so she just assumes something happened with the space time continuum. Okay, well the doc, the mayor, and I discuss what to do and I tell them that it's fine if she stays here to rest up and heal. In real life, I'm taken aback that they leave a mystery person with me alone in my cabin without securing her or anything. She might not be with the bad guys, but that's still highly unsafe.

To be continued.

re tags on the new pokemon game poll:

-HGSS were 2009 so it's been 15 years since the last Johto game. Still the region we've gone the longest without a new game for, though.

-Kitakami's real-world basis (Iwate Prefecture) is closer to Sinnoh than Johto. They're actually connected by the Almia region from Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia!

Crying, 15 years without real Johto the world is so cruel. Soul Silver was my first Pokemon game and I was like. 6 or something when I got it, so 15 years tracks. Feels weird though

That's so cool that it's connected to a Ranger game!!! I'm really surprised that the Ranger games would get that little bit of spotlight (rip Pokemon Ranger you will always be famous). I should really finish playing the original game.....

The reason I thought it was maybe connected to Johto is because before release, there were some rumors that it was. And I, not really paying attention and trying to avoid spoilers, kept that in the back of mind. Because I am desperate for Johto

I recently got Scarlet, so I guess this should just encourage me to get through the game so I can learn more about Kitakami. The DLCs are what finally made me cave and get the game anyway

Thanks for the info!

#answered #fun speech #actually i am standing by my statement that johto is the forgotten generation #like. every other generation has a large presence in the fan base #if not for their game then for their region or characters #not so much with gen 2.... maybe because its too entrenched with kanto that people just lump it in and ignore it idk #also the people who do like it all go nuts for heart gold and im over here clapping and cheering for soul silver #seems like everyone play hg like where did my fellow soul silver players go!!#I KNOW LUGIA HAS A BIG FAN BASE I'VE SEEN THE FANS

Spoiler about the result of that 'helped Tangeant' stat

Me after finally learning about the whole genocide plan Tangeant was working on after sneaking into the lab and then being given the responsibility of convincing her then LUM OF ALL PEOPLE to not: HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT

#I'm surprised it was that easy to stop but it definitely made me feel like I was defusing a bomb when talking to her about it #they did a really good job of making that scene of sneaking in and discovering it feel dark and horrifying and dread inducing #holy crap that was really dark #and the art from the card I got from it sends a chill down my spin #like Sol's imagination or what they thought of Tangeant in that moment #or like a weird creepy pasta art thing you'd usually see in the MLP fandom and brush off except she almost actually did that #not maliciously like depicted in the card but it still almost happened!#i was a teenage exocolonist #iwate #iwatex #iwatec #iwate spoiler #iwate spoilers #i was a teenage exocolonist spoilers #I'm just really good at making posts like this at 4 am aren't I?

[JJK 146 Spoilers]

This may just be my mind experiencing denial but I believe Kugisaki Nobara is alive and will be making an appearance during the culling game and here is my proof

At the beginning of JJK Nobara first arrived to Tokyo from Moriaka, which is in the Iwate prefecture. Let’s assume that Nobara is from this prefecture. One of the ten colonies is located in this prefecture (marked with an x)

It’s likely that Nobara’s childhood friend (Fumi) is still living in Nobara’s hometown. Both Fumi and Saori are shown in the same chapter that Nobara dies after fighting Mahito (Ch. 125). This specific scene between Nobara and Fumi may foreshadow their reunion if Fumi is one of the individuals w/an awakened CT

Saori might also have a CT and have to participate the culling game, but the last time we saw her was in Tokyo. Regardless, I think Nobara might eventually join Yuji, Megumi, Yuta and Maki to join the culling game and save her friends as well (either Fumi, Saori or both).

The fanbook also stated that Nobara’s grandmother is a sorcerer. If Shoko and Nitta managed to save Nobara, she might be back at home under her grandmother’s watch, which would mean she would be close to one of the colonies and could help Fumi if Fumi does have a CT.

This sounds like nonsense and it probably is but I’m so convinced she’s coming back she has to scare Yuji just like he did to her when everyone thought he was dead😭I refuse to believe Akutami killed a character w so much potential mostly for the sake of driving Yuji’s development/fueling his next decisions

#jjk spoilers #jjk 146 #jjk meta #kugisaki nobara #jjk manga spoilers #aka my plea to akutami to bring nobara back pls pls plsssss

Hitori-Escape Tour 2019, they're at the halfway point, so time to post reports!

消せます！

Disclaimer: These were all pilfered, ransacked, polished and ravished from my JP Twitter mutuals,,,, Who are all such kind souls,, Not only have they used their memory skills to seed Rie's words, but they even bothered to share the concert's happenings with the world wide web, AND they have urged me forward to keep on translating them... So I'll take the liberty to post them organized here... When you pass by any JP Rie fans on twitter, click hearts...💘 Shinoda’s name is shortened to SND, ygarshy’s to yg(a), and Yumao to Yu(ma) throughout...!

1 Hitorie's Hitori-Escape Tour, 9/3/2019 at Takutaku in Kyoto! Report!

Yumao's tweet "Our tour starts today! I have cut my hair too short."

The first show, the first step….

SND looked back at both of the members to say “Let’s do our best guys.” Yg nodded back. Yuma started it up…

●SND played FAST guitar while singing, yg howled out harmonies on [a] chorus. Yu snickered at one of SND's slips.

SND used Leader’s jaguar on a [very very special song].

They did their best…

●SND “Its hoooot... We always came to Takutaku in the winter so now I’m experiencing Takutaku in it's true form.... Can I take a drink break, fwaaaaah, it's hot y'know? I'm even properly hydrated y'know? This water is gonna churn in my stomach, gehh I feel sick....”

SND: "RAISE THE AIR CONDITIONING!!!!!!!!!! I DON’T GIVE A DAMN IF ALL OF THE POWER IN KYOTO GOES OUT!!!!!! GIVE TAKUTAKU ALL THE ELECTRICITY!!!!!!!!!! LIKE IT'S OPERATION YASHIMA!!!! (*In reference to the wonderful Evangelion episode: https://evangelion.fandom.com/wiki/Episode:06).

●Shinoda’s band introduction was “On bass ygarshy, on drums Yumao, and on guitar and vocals is I Shinoda. Music and lyrics brought to you by wowaka.”

●SND “Umm…We have merch…But the towels? T-shirts? They all sold out… No seriously I’m just…. We really did bring a hefty load of stock…Thank you all… Also what else sold out?” Crowd “The cap! Pens! DVD! Pouch!!” Shinoda “‘OK, whatever..... Thank you…’” ←That is exact verbatim, SND spoke in English. All that Netflix watching is showing.

●SND “By the way ygarshy, did you know they’ve stopped selling HimoQ?" yg: ....... >>>*BWOON*<<< *responds with only the sound of his bass* *HimoQ is an old school gummy candy by the brand Meiji, and-

--yg turned away with a smile that couldn’t be concealed. While behind them Yumao was playing his drums while just repeating “HimoQ.... HimoQ..... Why HimoQ...”

●Lastly there were also many reports on people being showered on by SND’s sweat. Stay hydrated please sensei

●Nishimaki Taichi their cameraman’s comment: I was drenched in the sweat of Takutaku’s splintering heat until just a minute ago, yet now that I’m almost back home, this whole day feels like it could’ve been a dream. Lol

This is the start of a fabulous new year.

●Shinoda’s comment My ears are still pulsing,,, Takutaku of Kyoto, thank you so much. I’m glad I was able to come and be a part of your 45th anniversary, I’m happy I was able to see everybody’s faces. The journey begins. We’ll be in Okayama tomorrow, hope to see you there.

●The setlists I won’t repeat, just to avoid spoilers for any possible goers!

2 Hitorie's Hitori-Escape Tour, 9/4/2019 at CRAZYMAMA 2nd Room in Okayama! Report!

All members have interactions, I'm relieved..

●SND “Yesterday was so hot I thought I was going to puke, I’d only ever been to Takutaku in the winter not the summer… I came to Crazymama today shaking in fear but… Air conditioning is the BEST! The number one necessity for any venue is!!!! heavy-duty!!!! Air-conditioning!!!!!”

●As soon as SND started talking about yesterday, Yumao dashed up front in a rush to talk. He asked to borrow SND’s mic so he could join in on the MC,

The way they were standing next to each other got them called out for looking like a stand-up comedy duo.

●Yu “Yesterday I mouthed the words ‘Were concerts always this painful?’ to ygarsh 5 whole times and he didn’t understand me,” SND “Well of course not (laughing).” Afterwards when Yu did ask him, ygarsh responded with "They aren’t." Yu thought he was the only one dying, ah sweet relief~, he says.

●Yesterday did Yuma really get exhausted enough to collapse against the wall? Did SND slide atop speakers to then stick the landing, singing with his knees against the floor? It's out there...

●Yu and SND bickered with each other over who watches more Netflix. (They both praised the Netflix show The Naked Director etc. on Twitter recently also).

●SND “By the way ygarshy did you know that cicadas actually live longer than 1 week?”

ygarsh “BWOON♪”

(Cicada’s having only a life span of one week is a common myth in Japan. Also this interaction mimics yesterday, is SND subtly taunting yg in new ways the new staple for the Mannequin intro? Amen.)

●SND tweet: "Thank you Okayama, after doing 2 concerts in row, I see that I really am capable of singing. We'll be back,, until then,,"

●Katou Haruhisa, the founder of LUCK'A Inc. who’s produced Rie’s merch for so many tours, QRTed today's official backstage photo and strutted with pride: "They're all wearing great shirts lol #I made this"

3 Hitorie's Hitori-Escape Tour, 9/12/2019 at the five morika in Iwate prefecture! Report!

Yumao's tweet "Tomorrow is Morioka. The next day is Sendai. I hope to see you there!"

●In a small box with but a platform as the stage and a metal bar between the rockstars and the crowd, what happens if a SND sizzles up and sits down on the bar, gets up and gets down on the floor? FAN SERVICE. LOTS OF FAN SERVICE, THAT'S WHAT. SND was poked by fans, clapped by fan, had his head pet by a fan…. Amazing..

●SND praised the drama "Methanol” he watched on Amazon Prime. ●SND blessed the cool air of Morioka and rebuked the weather up in Tokyo. "I've still been walking around in shorts and sandals." *Looks down and checks himself out* "I ate such a ridiculous amount of grilled meat yesterday, I'm worried about my figure" "We all ate a ridiculous amount"

●SND "By the way ygarshy did you know that honeybees' body temperature can go up to 50 degrees celsius?"

　yg "....*BWOOON*" (goes into bass intro)

(The series...It's certain.. last time it was SND's provocative tidbits about a snack discontinuing.. then long-living cicadas, now..this.)

4 Hitorie's Hitori-Escape Tour, 9/13/2019 at Sendai darwin in Miyagi prefecture! Report!

●All the effects smoke made Yumao, in the back of the stage, look like a mirage... Yumao got up and called himself a mirage... Yumirage bamboozle... From there the crowd was riled up into cheering: “Yumao~ Yumao~ You’re so cute Yumao~”

Yuma kept posing and hugging his hands against his chest* “Thank you...” SND “You pretty boy...” Yuma “I'm snatched everybody... My wig is like snatched...” SND “Snatched, snatched... What are you a Twitter fangirl.” (*Yumao was using the fujoshi term "尊い".) ●During encore intermission the electric fan next to the stage picked up yga’s shirt and blew it up, exposing yga. Laughter was induced among the crowd, and SND, who missed the whole thing, was left all confused as to why everyone was laughing—. ●SND “By the way ygarshy, it’s Friday the 13th but, did you know that Jason doesn’t actually use a chainsaw?”

　yg “*BWOOOON*” ●Someone dived during the last song... As in, a fan started climbing up on other fans and rolling around up there. Staff handled it, and their love for Rie is blazing but... Etiquette and respect for the show space is the best way to enjoy the best show!! Please... SND’s tweet: “Sendai performance complete. Thank you, thank you, thank you”

5 Hitorie’s Hitori-Escape Tour, 9/25/2019 at Koube VARIT in Hyougo prefecture! Report!

Yumao's tweet "Today is Koube, tomorrow shall be Hiroshima. I hope to see you there!"

●SND MC speech "Did you guys have fun today? I think there's a lot of mixed emotions right now. If you didn't have fun, know that we're coming back here again. And then if you still don't have fun again, we're still coming back here again." ●Encore intermission! Crowd as they were walking back out "ygarshy! Yumao! Shinoda!" Yumao, pretending to be a person in the crowd in a scheme for instigation: “Yumao~~!” The crowd “Yumao….?” Yumao “Yumao…? Yumao!!!” Crowd “Yumaooo~~~!” SND “You sound like a Pokemon, crying your own name as if you’re a Pikachu.” Yumao “Yumao!" SND "Can neither of you (or yg) talk normal on mic."

Yumao *Goes and sits down at his drums* Crowd "Yumao~" *Plays a drum trick* “Yumao~~~” *Plays an even more flavorful trick* “Yumaoooo~~~” *EVEN MORE* “YUMAOOO~~~~”

SND “He’ll keep doing that if you keep it up, so keep pampering him.”

●SND “Backstage, they have redbull right, so before the show I couldn’t get over how delicious it was and I kept glugging, and so I was ready to burp throughout the whole first song. SND tweet after: I was in danger of deranging into the wet pants monster. ●Also Shinoda was hopping around playing guitar and he bumped into ygarsh at some point, of who seemed super annoyed—. ●SND “Remember last show, I mentioned Jason, I said there's actually no chainsaw? Well I watched the second movie and, he gets attacked by a chainsaw in that one!” yg *Makes a face as if questioning if that gag was his queue* SND *Nods* yg *>BWWOOON<* (Into the Mannequin intro)

●In the post concert photo Yumao seems to be drinking a Chocola BB, a vitamin B2 supplement to help with acne, mouth sores, and overall exhaustion....

●SND tweet: Koube concert: complete, thank you all. Playing at VARIT is, truly, fantastic,,, I’ll meet y’all in Hiroshima tomorrow. Until then,,,

6 Hitorie’s Hitori-Escape Tour, 9/26/2019 at Second Crutch in Hiroshima prefecture! Reports!

●SND “By the way ygarshy-kun, did you know that Mocomichi Hayami started a youtube channel!”

yga *>BWWOOON<*

(*Mocomichi, dubbed “The olive oil fairy“, is an actor who gained internet fame after his displays on the TV show ‘MOMO’S Kitchen’ where he would dump HUGE AMOUNTS of olive oil over his food, ignore the recipe requested of him, and then praise his cooking like crazy in the end. He was a riot! And he’s truly skilled at cooking! He's won Gourmand cookbook awards, he loves olive oil, he has his own kitchen brand, he was in the Kamen Rider 555 movie where he got killed by monsters halfway through, he loves olive oil- Anyway his channel is here.)

+ SND used wowaka’s red jaguar guitar in today and yesterday's concerts. Introduced (W)HERE with "As Hitorie we only make good songs, we only make God songs. And this is a good one even out of the good ones".

●Crowd “What did you guys eat for lunch!” SND “For lunch I ate soba.” Crowd “Booo! Eat okonomiyaki!” (*Hiroshima is famous for it) “Screw that assholes!!!” “Whyyyy just try it!!!”

THEN YG TALKED

SND “And ygarshy gave Yumao an egg sandwich.” yg “… ...Uhm..” Crowd “!?!?!? Woooahh!!!” yg “Shut up for a second.” Crowd *Still bustling, not listening* yg “Over something so silly…. why are you all excited….” yg “… So uhm I just wanted to say that…. Yumao likes eggs.”

Post show Yumao tweeted “I like eggs.”

●SND tweet “The Hiroshima show: done. A rare event occurred today huh. Y’all were lucky… in a way? That aside I had fun. Thank y’all. I’m off to have a drink.”

7 Hitorie’s Hitori-Escape Tour, 9/26/2019 at Sapporo SPiCE in Hokkaido prefecture! Reports!

Yumao's tweet "Today is Sapporo. I hope to see you there! Ahh the first magnitude stars".

●SND ”Hokkaido, you’re so full of spirit! It’s ‘cause RSR had to cancel the first day, isn’t it!? How many of y’all missed out on seeing Number Girl?” *Hands rising all over* SND “Muahaha!!!! Well I already got to see them!!! Poor you!!!” (*Rocking Sun Festival last month was canceled due to Typhoon 10 hitting Hokkaido).

●Shinoda rued and revered the heat. Said that Sapporo’s been the second sweatiest show after Kyoto. Crowd “Let’s make it the hottest!” SND “No! You can’t beat it. That was a traumatic experience, I thought I was gonna die. But we can still make the excitement levels the hottest!”

●Encore intermission and the usual outfit change: SND “Aren’t you hot in that?” Yumao “Yeah, this sweatshirt is way too big for me. Oh, because it’s Shinoda’s” It was too hot for SND so he made Yumao wear and promo the official merch. SND opened his mouth to make a comment when the crowd slipped in with “Yumao you’re cute wearing that~~ so cute~~!” cheers. SND “Shut up I’m talking!!” SND “….I’m sorry for yelling!” ‘Apologizes before things go downhill’ Crowd kept the spirit high by asking ygarsh if he wanted to eat pizza, yg nodded his head, then scooted towards the mic as if to say something- but turned back... He tricked everybody! Rie weren’t going to let him get away with that, they had to pick on him for revenge!

Crowd “Hello! [At yg]” SND “What?! You’re resorting to teaching him the basics of conversation?” (SND and Yu laughing out loud) SND “He’s not an AI y’know??” (Yuma has his hands on his stomach at this point). yg *Still not talking* SND “Ahh what are we gonna do with him” SND “yga~rshy~kun~, have some fun with me~~!”

　yg “*>>>BWOOOOON<<<*

●SND tweet: Sapporo concert: complete!! That was way too fucking hot!! Damn ridiculous! That’s what makes it so good. Thank you.

8 Hitorie’s Hitori-Escape Tour, 10/10/2019 at UMBER in Shizuoka prefecture! Reports!

Yumao's tweet "Today's Shizuoka!"

●A wild cockroach appeared before Yumao and SND backstage during the intermission.

It was a huge one, scurrying across the stage walls throughout the end of the show regardless of its own size.

●yg offered Yuma the rights to his front stage mic for Yuga and SND to be able to talk about it together, so he pulled at his mic in front of him…. Only for the cable to come spiraling out, yanked from the jack, off went the XLR connector, and all. yg's power move left him laughing hysterically. yga laughed!!!!! He laughed as he gave Yumao a powerless mic!!

●With the power move to piston off of, “Professor Yumao” was on the case to give a “lecture” with his cockroach wisdom! He told us about how the ones with the perfect figures come from the outside and live under trees, german cockroaches like to stay inside and come from the inside...

SND “Back when I used to live in a rundown apartment in Nagoya, there was 2 perfect cockroaches always waiting for me in front of my apartment”. Yu “Outside, right!!”

yga *Frozen up and now hiding against the wall*

●Prof. Yumao also gave another lecture about Shampoo from the anime Ranma 1/2, complete with “Ne!” imitations, SND piped in also until he realized something- and then got angry at Yuma because only few will know who he’s talking about....

SND “So tell me, what time is it?” Yu “Time to talk about things everybody will understand!” SND “No it’s encore time!” Yu " :O "

●Hasegawa-san, the drummer of SND’s past past band “Dr. Right” from around 2007 (See video of youngin SND and crew performing: https://nico.ms/sm11604475?ref=share_others_spweb…), he also payed a visit to the show!!!!

●The stage at the venue is one that shook like crazy from everyone’s vigor, Rie seemed to enjoy the ride.

●SND “I left Nagoya, went up to Tokyo, and now I’m back in Nagoya, singing nonetheless... I’m not embarrassed carrying the mic to sing non-guitar songs anymore."

●SND "After 9 shows doin’ this, it's really hit me. Hitorie really make great songs! But even among all of them this one is peachy… Wait no one says that? This one’s at the tippy-top. ….Wait no one says these words in Tokyo, nor Nagoya?? Ah whatever let’s go” (The original words were ドンズバ and ダントツ, both old niche words).

●Encore intermission, Yumao came out in front of the mic then… Clenched his fist up into the air and stood stout! SND “You’re not gonna talk, now, what are you doing?” Yu “Freddie Mercury, is in the house!!”

●Rie wished everyone safe travels home through Typhoon 19! They even cut the MC short to ensure swift departure- SND “I bet y’all would go off tweeting “Their chitchat was so long I couldn’t get home! Fuck them!” Well we’re fortunate, one day later and it would've been cancelled.."

●Then, the usual Thing.... SND “ygarshy, ygarshy! A fly seems to have sorta, landed on your bass over there!” yg *>BWWON*< (Interrupting SND’s sentence with a rushed note).

Post-Episode 4 PD48 Top 12

Alright so I have no idea how often I’m gonna do this. Right now I’m basically just doing an updated one after every episode, but that might change later on to be just doing one after every elimination instead. Here’s a link to remind you of what my previous Top 12 looked like. I’m honestly not even sure what the new one will look like, I’m gonna go through my notes as I write this (yes, I take notes during the episodes, fight me). With that said, find my new list (and potential spoilers) below the cut~

A disclaimer: Jurina would be my rank one, far and away, because I’m honestly just in love with her. However, because she’s leaving the show due to her health, even though she hasn’t done so yet technically, I won’t be including her on this list. I hope she takes a good, long rest and recovers well!! Health is the most important thing.

Takeuchi Miyu (AKB48), Main Vocal - So I said I wouldn’t be talked down from Kaeun as rank one, but here we are, literally a week later. I can’t help it. Miyu’s voice does things to me. She absolutely killed it in the High Tension performance. Miyu has the most unique vocal tone in the show, and for my money she’s also the most vocally talented overall. She has great stage presence as well, and seems a competent dancer.

Yabuki Nako (HKT48), Vocal/Dancer/Visual - Nako is the complete package as an idol already, which is incredibly impressive. She’s capable of handling lead vocal responsibilities, a quality dancer, and she’s got visuals off the charts. Literally the cutest thing. I adore her, and she deserved that record-setting amount of live votes.

Lee Kaeun (Pledis), Leader - Same things I said last time, she’s just great at everything, has shown remarkable leadership ability, and deserves to re-debut. She probably fell on my list mostly because she didn’t get to do much in the Peek-a-boo performance.

Lee Chaeyeon (WM), Main Dancer - Not much has changed here. Still strikes me as the best dancer of the participants, handled main vocals on Very Very Very quite admirably, has great stage presence.

Miyawaki Sakura (HKT48), Sub-vocal/Dancer/Visual - She rises on my list this week mostly because of how hard-working she is. She switched positions/parts twice over the course of like three days in preparing for the group battle, and worked her ass off for both. I think the mentors were probably overly harsh on her as center (Mnet playing up the drama, imo), but the fact that she switched off of center and only had one day to prepare and still did everything very well when it came to the performance further proves that she really would be a benefit to any group.

Muto Tomu (AKB48), Sub-vocal/Dancer/Visual - Same as what I said last week. She has a unique vocal tone that I want more of. She’s a stable vocalist, good dancer, extremely cute. One of my (unexpected) personal faves.

Honda Hitomi (AKB48), Lead Dancer - Still the next-best dancer in the show, for my money. Great dancer, learns quickly, teaches the others, is v cute. A+ international girl group material.

Takahashi Juri (AKB48), Lead Vocal - Juri replaces Jang Gyuri on my list at the lead vocal position. She won me over with her performance of Short Hair. That is not an easy vocal song, and she absolutely killed it. She wasn’t the main vocal in her group, but she grabbed my attention with her voice more than her group’s main vocal did. She also just seems like a great person, always willing to help or to sacrifice to do what’s best for the group.

Lee Sian (Stone Music), Vocal/Visual - So I actually spent most of the past couple episodes wondering to myself why people on the show kept talking about Sian as if she was the ace of a group, because I never saw much from her. Well THAT changed. She really grabbed me with her Short Hair performance (on the opposite team of Juri). She has a powerful voice, and strong visuals, and overall seems to be a balanced performer.

Shitao Miu (AKB48), Rapper/Visual - Here’s another one that caught me by surprise. She just wrapped me right around her finger during her Peek-a-boo performance. She nailed the rap verse (which is especially hard being that she had to rap in a second language for her), served looks up and down the stage, and then turned out to also be extremely precious and cute.

Ahn Yujin (Starship), Rapper/Visual/Vocal/Dancer/Everything - Yeah, okay, I can’t justify leaving her off anymore, she forced me to pay attention in Very Very Very. First off, how in the world is she so pretty? Second, how is she so good at literally everything? I already thought she was a good dancer and vocalist, but then she rapped like THAT?? Not fair, y’all. Not fair.

Huh Yunjin (Pledis), Vocal/Visual - Yeah she won me over. I mean, I already liked her from her intro video, but I didn’t have much else to go on. Then she owned High Tension and grabbed me. She’s got good stage presence, very stable vocals (with more potential than she even got to show in High Tension, imo), and she’s a solid dancer, with those good Tall Genes™ and visuals to boot.

So that’s my Top 12 after episode 4! This was a bit harder to do than my last one. Jurina was tough to replace on my list, and there was also a lot more talent on display in episode 4 than there had been before. Other names that just missed the list for me: Jang Wonyoung (Starship), Jang Gyuri (Stone Music), Cho Ahyoung (FNC), Cho Sarang (Million Market), Iwatate Saho (AKB48), Imada Mina (HKT48), Nakanishi Chiyori (AKB48), Kwon Eunbi (Woollim), Park Haeyoon (FNC), Han Chowon (Cube), Chiba Erii (AKB48) (YES I FUCKING LOVE HER, SHE’S SO PRECIOUS AND WONDERFUL AND SHE TRIED HER BEST DESPITE ALL ODDS BEING AGAINST HER AND IF YOU SHIT-TALK HER OR BOOMBAYAH TEAM TWO I WILL FIGHT YOU IRL)

Hoooooo boy that was a lot of writing again! If you read all this again this week for some reason, thanks again, and I love you again~

#personal #Takeuchi Miyu #Yabuki Nako #Lee Kaeun #Lee Chaeyeon #Miyawaki Sakura #Muto Tomu #Honda Hitomi #Takahashi Juri #Lee Sian #Shitao Miu #Ahn Yujin #Huh Yunjin #PD48

Inazuma Eleven Revival Festival - Review!

WARNING - I will mark SPOILERS for Reloaded and the 2 Ares episodes below!!

Personal Reflection: I’ve been an Inazuma fan since roughly 2010, but TRULY became obsessive from 2013+ when I saw Kirino and fell in love. Inazuma has a special place in my heart because it’s one of my strongest connections to Japan. I learnt Japanese through watching, reading about, listening to and eventually translating for this anime. To actually get to go to an event which marks the start of a new Inazuma series was a dream come true. Being SURROUNDED by a sea of fans wearing cosplays, badges, scarves, uniforms… To know what we have in common is a love for this dumb sakka series - it felt amazing. It would be an even bigger dream come true to make friends with EVERYONE who also loves this series. I hope IE EXPLODES over the next 3 years and I 100% believe IT WILL. And I will do whatever I can to help the JPN-ENG translators!!

Apologies if I’ve forgotten anything important.

Okay! Let’s go!!

Attendees: There was about 2,000 people at the live event.

Before the Event: The merch went on sale from 10am, and you didn’t need a ticket to the event to queue to buy it. I arrived at 12ish and the queue looked to be about 2 hours long, so I decided I wasn’t interested in buying anything for once in my life. I’ll post a list of the merch later.

There was an area to trade merch and take photos with the cosplayers.

The doors opened at 2pm and the event began at 3pm.

START

It began with Endou explaining the rules: no filming, photography etc… during the event.

Then a ‘memory reel’ where they showed screens of all previous characters. Endou CHEER Gouenj CHEER Kidou CHEER Kazemaru HUGE CHEER Atsuya and Shirou HUGE CHEER Reize HUGE CHEER Go Raimon HUGE CHEER (and Araceli cries) Kirino and Kariya ENORMOUS CHEER Shindou CHEER Torb SILENCE… then laughter… Alpha, Beta, Gamma CHEER Fei CHEER Galaxy HALF ASS CHEER

Opening Songs

Preformed by pugcats and King Cream Soda. During the song, the characters came to the audience to dance. There was Endou, Gouenji, Kidou, Fudou, Fubuki, Hiroto, Kabeyama, Asuto and Kazemaru. Unfortunately they never went on the stage so we couldn’t see all of them. Endou high-fived a few people.

Introduction

Hino and Mo appeared. Hino said he’s so happy to see so many people gathered here to celebrate Inazuma Eleven, and the huge crowd is proof Inazuma is Avery loved series. Mo adds it’s been 4 years with nothing yet still so many people are here or watching the live-viewing. They introduce themselves formally - Hino as president of Level 5 and Mo as an employee - and Mo said she will do her best with Japanese today too (Mo, PLEASE your Japanese is AMAZING)…

Hino says this event marks the start of a new Inazuma series.

All-Star Cast Line Up

Guest stars were Nojima Hirofumi (Gouenji Shuuya), Terasaki Yuka (Matsukaze Tenma), Tomatsu Haruka (Nishizono Shinsuke/ Kudou Fuyuka, Hattori Handa) and Kamiya Hiroshi (Haizaki Ryouhei).

Tomatsu’s outfit was really pretty, like a long white dress-shirt and blue jeans. Kamiya wore a black and red jacket that looked really cool. By the way, he seems like a very funny person, so I was surprised he’s playing so many last boss characters.

Before Reloaded, there’s a recap of the story so far. Reize’s opening monologue. Fans went wild.

Hino says this will be the first time the voice actors (minus Nojima) see the completed episode, so they will watch it together on stage with everyone. The sit around their own TV. Tomatsu says it feels like being in a living room. Nojima comments there’s no drinks. Mo and Hino sit with them too. Hino says the reason they made Reloaded is because they had to have a reason to connect the original series to Ares.

WARNING! BELOW HERE CONTAINS SPOILERS!

Inazuma Reloaded Opening: Remastered Stand Up Tachi Agariyo

Raimon return after the FF. The whole school is so happy to see them. They’re crowded by fans. There’s a scene of Miyasaka hugging Kazemaru and the audience went nuts. Endou is so overwhelmed he runs to the toilet as an excuse. Kidou and Gouenji call him into the clubhouse.

Comment - Their body language is WONDERFUL! It’s so realistic the way Endou can’t sit still, or Kidou leans forward to speak.

Gouenji/ Kidou say next is the world as Endou gets excited over the idea of playing new opponents.

Hibiki arranges an exhibition match against Barcelona Orb - the team came from Spain to Japan for this match. The match starts and Gouenji tries Fire Tornado right away. It fails when the goalkeeper stops it with his finger then throws the ball back to Gouenji. They next try the Inazuma Break, which also fails. Kazemaru, Gouenji and Ichinose perform the Phoenix, but that doesn’t work either.

It’s shown Hakuren, Zeus, Sun Garden, Teikoku etc are watching the match. This got a huge reaction from the crowd.

Barcelona’s captain the rest f the team start to attack. The captain scores without using special moves. The score becomes over 8 (to zero) and Barcelona’s teammates tell the Captain to give them a taste of their real level. The Captain uses his special move - Diamond (don’t remember the second word, possibly ball) where he carves the ball into a diamond. It’s very beautiful. He scores before Endou can even react. Endou seems reluctant to pick up the ball after that shot, like he’s almost in fear - but that doesn’t last for long.

Raimon lose, exhausted, as Endou lies back and laughs to himself, reflecting on how great soccer is.

Raimon are called into an office to talk. I didn’t catch the guy’s name, but an official looking person tells them that Raimon vs Barcelona proves that Japan’s soccer is not at world level. He wants them to join soccer teams around Japan and strengthen Japan’s soccer as member of the strengthening committee. Endou agrees to it.

Raimon are gathered outside their club house, seemingly worrying. They don’t want to split up. Kurimatsu says it’s okay for the Captain and the others but some f the weaker members don’t feel they have what it takes. Kidou says no matter what happens they will all be connected by their hearts.

Domon and Ichinose are going to America, and the managers see them off at the airport. Aki’s wearing a cute pink hoodie. She’s mad that they’re going to America and tells Ichinose that he should represent Japan. Ichinose says he needs to gather strength in US before returning. He doesn’t know yet if he’ll play for a Japanese team or an American one.

Natsumi, along with the managers, are also given roles as members of the strengthening committee but it’s not revealed what they are. Natsumi has her laptop in any case.

Final scene - Break Trio are on top of the hill talking. Endou still doesn’t fully understand what a strengthening committee member is, and Kidou asks if he was can listening at all. Endou seems to have just heard the word soccer and agreed to it.

They say the next time they meet on the pitch they’ll be rivals. None of the 3 plan on losing. They part ways.

Closing theme:

Remastered Seishuu Oden showing scenes from the Raimon kids’ school life. E.g., Kazemaru and Makksu in class, the kids eating lunch, Kabeyama doing science, the team playing soccer…

There’s a chat session with the voice actors - their thoughts about the episode. Pretty predictable - it was very interesting and great and the animation and remastered moves were great. It’s commented that the leg movement for Fire Tornado is very different, because Gouenji is longer.

They talk a bit about the Captain of Barcelona Orb and the rest of the team. He’s not good-looking but still kind of cool - that’s the kind of character Hino wanted to make. Mo comments on his ‘bear eyes’.

It’s the new characters’ turn to be introduced. The voice actors Ayumu Murase (Inamori Asuto), Michinari Tatsumi (Kimura Ryouhei) and Hanae Natsuki (Okuiri Hiro) come to the stage.

A picture is shown of Baddap, Haizaki and a character from another anime he plays. They all have grey hair and tanned skin and are Last Boss type roles. Kamiya says Baddap was his first villain role and then his second Inazuma role is Haizaki. He wonders just how does Hino see him since he keeps getting villain roles?

Since the topic of villains comes up, a pic of all previous enemies is shown. Terasaki points to each GO character and says alien (Ozrock), future boy (Saru), ghost (Shuu) and human (Hakuryuu). There’s only one human, compared to the original series.

They go through the new 11 members. Some notable comments were:

Michinari - Hino says Michinari is a Captain like Shindou from GO with many worries.

Okuiri - He wears glasses like Megane’s but he’s a much more serious character.

Iwate - He and his voice actor look alike to the point it’s scary.

Mo and Hino say they feel like something is missing from this voice actor chat session - oh yes, Endou! Junko has left fans a message that will be played on the screen.

A word from Junko: She really wanted to come but couldn’t. She says she assumes Hino is talking and talking and talking. She gave her own proverb: everyone, please enjoy today’s event!

There’s a break for 30 mins where they showed Outer Code eps Hakuren, Teikoku and Sun Garden. Fans screamed for Shirou, Atsuya, Someoka, Hiroto, Midorikawa, the group of Sun Garden kids, Sakuma, Genda, Fudou and Kazmaru.

Inazuma Ares 1 (note - some scenes may be out of order)

Opening Theme: Teppen Mezasou! It was epic! The start focused on Inakuni Raimon, we see Haizaki’s GORGEOUS school uniform!!! Like a blue blazer ~ Sakuma, Aphrodi, Hiroto etc appear~

It opens with the Inakuni kids playing soccer. Goujin makes a shoot but Norika saves it. She said he’s getting better. Sasuke is watching them. They take a break. Norika says soccer is great: it can let you forget about all your worries. I think it’s Hattori who is surprised that Norika has worries. Asuto and Michinari decide to ask the principal if they can play a practice match against another team. The principal (Fuyukai) says instead the soccer club will be demolished because they have no sponsor)

Workers are demolishing the pitch. Asuto runs to stop them but they forcefully push him away. Eventually Michinari had to hold him back. Later Norika is bandaging him up. She said she understands his worries but he was too reckless. Asuto asks her is she okay with not being able to play soccer? She says, of course not. Kirina runs over saying there’s bad news about Asuto’s Mom.

Asuto runs to hospital. His Mom apologizes and says she can’t stay with him. Asuto is upset to lose not just soccer but his Mom too. His Mom assures him he won’t lose soccer - soccer will be there as long as he needs it.

Kirina wonders if Asuto will be okay as he runs off. They guess he is going to the highest point in the island. Asuto reaches the top of the hill and screams.

The next day the Inakuni kids are called into the office where they ware told if they can win one match they can get a sponsor if they transfer to Raimon. That means leaving the island and moving to Tokyo.

It’s revealed Sasuke is a recent transfer student.

The kids are shown wondering about their decision to go to Tokyo.

Hiura tells his Grandma he’s going and she comments things will get lonely around there. By the way, she calls him Ki-chan.

Hattori rides on top of Iwate’s back as he rides a bike. Hattori wonders if the food will be good in Tokyo.

Michinari is walking with his father. He feels like his Mom will protest if he goes to Tokyo, but his Dad assures him he’ll talk to her.

Mansaku is at his Dad’s sushi restaurant. His Dad gives him his specialty sushi, and tells him to eat. He says he won’t lose to the food over in Tokyo.

Norika, Hiyori and Okuiri are together that evening. They comment going to Tokyo would be Norika’s first time to ever leave the island.

Raimon vs Seishou. Sasuke makes the First Goal with Fire Tornado. This wakes up the Devil of the Field, Haizaki. He goes wild, scoring again and again. Their are 2 special moves - Overhead Penguin and the Death Zone. Kidou does not appear in this match.

Proverb: Soccer will be there as long as you need it!

Inazuma Ares 2

Haizaki and Seishou are beating Raimon. Agirls are watching the match from a box, making fun of Raimon being from the countryside. Anna tells them to be quiet.

Flashback to 1 week before Raimon vs Seishou.

Inakuni Raimon at outside the clubhouse. Norika tries opening the door but it won’t budge. They comment that Raimon/ Tokyo is very different to their island.

The group of girls come over (perhaps members of the student council? Managers?) with Mikado Anna, who introduces herself as president of the student council. The girls are dismissive of Raimon winning their match against Seishou, but Asuto says they will.

Next the kids meet Ootani Tsukushi (do you remember her? A game only character!) who is very bubbly and friendly. She shows them around the school.

The team get their uniforms and are very excited. Ootani is so excited she’s about to cry. They also get the Inazuma Band - a wristband that measures their exercise levels. It’s also a communication device - the coach can use it to contact them. He does so immediately, summoning them to the field.

They are surprised their Coach is from China. He said he prefers Kung Fu to soccer. He made them a crazy training schedule (think: worse than Kidou from GO). Like 100 laps, 100 push ups etc. He asks them what they have to do? Goujin/ Asuto say train and win their next match. Coach says no - they have to NOT LOSE.

The start with laps through Inazuma Town.

Back to the match. Haizaki’s still demolishing them.

Flashback to a new scene.

Haizaki is showering. Another boy comes in. You see the infamous goggles and Haizaki calls him by his name, so we know it’s Kidou. We only see the bottom half of his face and legs by the way.

Back to the match. Seishou win. Raimon are disappointed but Asuto says while they’re in Tokyo they should do something fun like go to Sky Tree.

Inakuni Raimon are at Tokyo Sky Tree. Suddenly Asuto starts crying. He wanted to play soccer more. The others start crying too, except for Sasuke who is annoyed they are crying in public.

A man walks over and introduces himself as a member of Island Travel - a famous travel agency. He says he he would like to sponsor Raimon. Asuto is surprised because they lost. The man says that the fact they were able to score even one goal against Seishou and the way they fought their hardest to the very end of the match moved him emotionally. There’s more than just winning and losing.

Asuto reflects. They may have lost but in the week before the match they trained all over Inazuma Machi, getting to know the local community.

So Raimon get a sponsor. The kids are so happy they start dancing and hugging each other.

Proverb: I can’t fully remember but I THINK it was something like, you’ll make your own future out of the path you choose to walk??

Closing Theme: All of Inakuni Raimon jump out of a scales in different poses. Then we see everyone’s ‘battle’ suits. Asuto - knight Nosaka - mage Hattori - Robin Hood/ Cupid Okuiri - Some kind of wizard Sasuke - Shirtless gladiator (by the way everyone laughed)

2 Questions from fans

Boy: Is it relevant that in the ending theme all of the players are divided into 3 'sets’ to showcase their battle armor? Hino says it might be.

Girl: She was very excited. First she said she loves Mo. Her question is - what’s up with Kudou’s redesign/ why is he coach for Seishou? Hino said, history has changed!

Voice Actor Talk: The VAs were asked to draw their most memorable scene.

Nojima Hirofumi: Gouenji didn’t appear! He is literally like… So… Gouenji didn’t appear??? Why am I here again?? I was looking forward to seeing him! He does add the episodes were very exciting, with no boring parts.

Kamiya Hiroshi: OVERHEAD PENGUIN and Sasuke. He said he wants to know what the balance of Ares is.

Kimura Ryouhei: Sasuke’s Fire Tornado. Mo comments Sasuke shoots Fire Tornado with his right leg but Gouenji used his left.

Hanae Natsuki: The ending theme where Okuiri jumps out of the scales, he makes a cute pose like 'kyaa’ waving his arms and legs. His VA is surprised because it seemed unlike him.

Murase Ayumu: Hattori riding on Iwato’s back

Terasaki Yuuka: Kogarashi Manor is brand new!

Tomatsu Haruka: The scene where everyone cries together! OR ~shower scene~ she drew a questionable picture of Haizaki showering. The way she drew his legs were awkward and looked like something… else lmao.

Mo comments that the pose Haizaki makes while he showers is very strange (head down, hands against the wall)

Terasaki comments that it’s strange Kidou took his goggles off in the shower of all places. She thinks they would be useful to keep shampoo out of his eyes.

Apparently Hino argued with staff over whether or not the shower scene was necessary. Hino felt it was.

Kamiya comments that he was watching the fans react to that scene, he’s like - I heard you! I saw your reaction to that! I know you liked that!

Hino reveals that since Ares is a parallel world he wants to redo the whole series up to FF International. He says he really wants Inazuma to run for a very long time.

Terasaki asks Hino to please make a new GO. Hino said he wants to. But this not an official statement, more like ‘if possible I’d like to do that’. Personal opinion - if IE becomes very popular I would say there’s a 40/60 chance of a new GO.

Future of Anime Preview:

Two picture were shown that showed future plans for the anime. One was young Hiroto and Tatsuya. It’s implied there will be an episode with them as children (personal speculation - possibly all the Sun Garden as kids??). Second was Haizaki getting very worked up over trying to win a stuffed bear from an arcade game (personal speculation - it’s not actually for him, but the girl in the flashback).

Game Info: It will be released on Switch, PS4, IOS and Android.

The showed gameplay: Inakuni Island, Raimon Chuugakkou, Match vs Seishou, Kidou running and tackling, Sasuke’s Fire Tornado. Quality was very high, like Breath of the Wild.

Mo made a comment that the story mode map looked very big and it seemed it would take ages for the character to run far distances. Hino said they are working on that.

Next Walker: March 10th 8PM

Closing Words (that I remember):

Nojima: He said he can’t wait for Gouenji to appear. Why does Gouenji always keep us waiting?

Terasaki said she’s so happy to stand on the stage and play an Inazuma character again.

Mo said it’s an honor to stand on the same stage as Hino as a foreign Inazuma Eleven fan (Mo is from China).

Ending Live: Ryuusei Boy by a two girl idol group (name??). Then pugcats and King Cream Soda joined them to sing Saikyou de Saigo and Maji de Kansha. The voice actors joined in and the character suits too. Confetti exploded. Fans waved their glow sticks and cheered.
