What does being an idol mean to you, Kohakucchi?
wc: 2467
Despite being an idol for a few months going on a year, Kohaku doesn't really understand the concept of idols.
This was my piece for @alkakureizine ! You should check it out everyone did a great job ^.^
Read on AO3
----
“Hey Niki-han,” Kohaku started as Niki set a plate with his lunch in front of him. “What does it mean to be an idol?” 
Niki’s face took on a pensive look, like the question was hard to answer concisely. “Hmm, well I’m not too sure, Kohaku-chan. Why don’t we talk about it together over lunch? My break starts in a minute here.” 
“Sure.” Kohaku took a bite of his food as he let his thoughts surface again. He had been having doubts about being an idol, about what it meant to sing and dance on stage with Crazy:B (and to some extent, with Double Face). Could someone like him even call himself an idol? 
It was just a minute later when Niki set down an astounding five plates piled with food on the table and sat across from Kohaku and began eating. 
“So Kohaku-chan, what brought this on?” He asked between bites, not bothering to wipe the sauce dripping down his chin. Kohaku thought it was almost endearing how much Niki was “un-idollike” in these moments. Niki felt more down to earth than some of the other idols at ES at least. 
“I was just thinkin’ about a conversation I had with Rabu-han earlier is all,” he responded. “I know Rabu-han says we’re real idols but ‘m not too sure what that really means sometimes, and I don’t think he does either. At the very least, he didn’t care for my answer on the subject.” 
“Nyahaha! Is that all? Well, Rinne-kun would always say that idols bring love and joy to the world with their music when we were younger. He’d never admit to that now though.” Niki moved one of his plates to the side and began working on his second one. “Do idols have to be contained to just the music industry though? I think that Nagumo kid from Ryuseitai would consider me an ‘idol’ from my cooking show days.” 
“Huh, I didn’t know that Tetora-han looked up to you like that.” 
“Me neither, he just came up to me one day and started talking about how he used to watch my show when he was younger. He’s an enthusiastic one at least!” 
The two of them laughed at that. 
“Well I s’pose that idols could be anyone that someone looks up to. Even the man on the news could be an idol to someone out there, but I don’t think that’s what most people think of when you say ‘idol’...” 
“Hmm, yeah, TV personalities are being phased out to make room for musical idols more and more. Oh, how I wish I could still do a cooking show like I used to!” 
Kohaku knew that Niki was thinking about a specific set of events, though the details had never really been made clear to him. Rinne would always dance around the topic and Niki would just change it altogether. 
“Well then, I guess Rinne-kun was right for once about idols being people who make you smile and want to live! We wouldn’t be here without his love of them, after all.” 
“What d’ya mean, Niki-han?” 
“Oh, did we never tell you? Rinne-kun ran into an idol when I first picked him up off the street who inspired him to keep going or something. That’s how he tells the story anyway. I think he might have just seen someone on one of those TV displays on the street and got taken in by all the glitter.” 
“Kohkohkoh, you really don’t trust him, do ya.” 
“Nah, I trust Rinne-kun with a lot of things, but to not exaggerate his idol origin story isn’t one of them.” 
Kohaku raised an eyebrow. “You trust Rinne-han with anything?” 
“Well…” 
They laughed lightly as Niki finished another plate.
“Anyway, Kohaku-chan, I think you’re a great idol. You’ve got a lot of fans who love you and cheer you on, even as Double Face! We’re all a little awkward on stage but that’s part of our charm, isn’t it?” 
“I guess you’re right, Niki-han. Rabu-han always talks about how people think you’re cute and adorable on stage when you forget the choreography. He doesn’t like to tell me what they say about me online though.” 
“Hmm, I wonder why that is.” 
“I think he just wants me t’ focus on the people we see at our lives. He tells Otouto-han the same thing.” 
“Does that answer your question then, Kohaku-chan?” 
“I think I have a better understanding of idols now. Thanks, Niki-han.” 
“Nahaha, I’m glad! I have to get back on the clock in a minute here, but I’ll see you at practice later, right?” 
“We have practice later?” 
--- 
The next day, HiMERU and Kohaku met up at the cafe and slid into a booth in the far corner. HiMERU finished scribbling some notes on the paper in front of him and slid it to the boy across from him. 
“Here’s the notes from the meeting you missed yesterday. HiMERU recommends just skimming over it, as we don’t have any important work this week.” 
“Thanks, HiMERU-han. Didn’t we have that new song we were supposed to be learning?” 
“Ah, yes, thank you for reminding HiMERU. He believes it should be…here.” He points to a circled date on the schedule. “Try to practice your vocals before then. HiMERU is free this afternoon if you’d like to work on them together.” 
“Thanks again. You really don’t have to do that for me though.” 
“Nonsense. HiMERU needs to make sure his junior is keeping up with everything. Please let HiMERU know if you have any questions.” 
“Yeah yeah I got it you don’t have to keep repeating yourself like that.” 
HiMERU chuckled. “Of course, HiMERU will keep that in mind.” 
Their drinks were called out from the counter and HiMERU excused himself to get them, leaving Kohaku alone for a minute. The question he had asked Niki the other day tickled at the back of his mind, wanting to know what HiMERU thought about it. He would probably have a very different answer from Niki at the very least. 
A bright pink drink with whipped cream was set in front of him, pulling him from his thoughts. 
“Here you go. Enjoy, Oukawa.” 
Kohaku nodded as he bent the straw towards his mouth and took a drink. It was really sweet, almost too sweet. Aira might like it more than Kohaku did, though Aira would also probably insist on sharing it. 
“Hey, HiMERU-han, I got a question for you.” 
“What is it, Oukawa?” 
“What does being an idol mean to you?” 
HiMERU took a sip of his coffee. 
“Such an interesting question, Oukawa. Why do you ask?” 
“I was just thinkin’ about it. Rabu-han asked me a few days ago and didn’t seem to like my answer so…” 
“Ah, HiMERU understands. An idol to HiMERU is someone who is perfect and yet down to earth. Someone that their fans can aspire to be some day.” 
The answer is so matter of fact that Kohaku takes a second to respond. 
“That’s a very HiMERU-han answer.” 
“What do you mean by that, Oukawa?” 
“It just feels like somethin’ you’d say. Which I guess is why yer sayin’ it.” 
HiMERU chuckles and takes another sip of his drink. 
“HiMERU is glad to hear that.” 
“Mhm. Anyway, do you have any idols that you look up to, HiMERU-han?” 
HiMERU hesitated and took a long sip of his coffee. 
“He would rather not talk about that.” 
Kohaku raised an eyebrow. 
“Maybe another time, Oukawa.” 
There’s an awkward pause as Kohaku tried to figure out what to say again. The mood had soured just a little bit and he wanted to avoid making it worse. 
“Forget about it then. You said you were free to help me later, right?” 
HiMERU smiles again and sets his cup down. “Of course. He finishes his job around three this afternoon if that works for you?” 
--- 
The music ended and everyone slid into their final position with the last beat. Their breathing was heavy and the stench of sweat filled the air, but they had finally mastered their newest choreography. Kohaku felt proud looking at himself in the mirror with everyone else. He really had come a long way since their first live all those months ago. 
“Alright! Great job everybody!” Rinne shouted, pulling everyone into a very sweaty hug. They all grumbled, but Kohaku could see the tiny smiles on HiMERU and Niki’s faces. This song had been giving them difficulty with all of the complex jumps and having to stay in sync so much, but they had finally gotten to something presentable. 
Just in time for their live, too. With just under a week left, they had all been worried about being able to get this dance down. Niki had even asked to simplify some of the choreography, but when they tried that, everyone agreed it wasn’t nearly as impressive as the original, and thus scrapped the idea. 
HiMERU and Niki were already out the door, yelling something about meeting up for dinner in a few hours. Kohaku tentatively approached Rinne who was packing up the rest of their gear to take back, sweaty towel draped around his neck. 
“Hey, Rinne-han, can I ask ya something?” Why did this feel so awkward? He didn’t really approach Rinne first, it was normally the other way around. 
“Aw, Kohaku-chan has a question for me? Shoot, little man.” 
Kohaku rolled his eyes. “I was just wondering what being an idol means to you?” 
“Where’s this comin’ from? Did little Ai-chan put something in your head again?” 
“Rabu-han has nothing to do with this.” Kohaku felt his face heat up. “Not in the way yer thinkin’ anyway.” 
Rinne laughed. “‘Course he doesn’t. But why do you want to know?” 
“It’s for a school project,” Kohaku lied through his teeth. He knew Rinne would see right through it, though the older man didn’t say anything to that. 
“Alright, if it’s that important, I s’pose you can get an exclusive interview with the Amagi Rinne.” Kohaku rolled his eyes again. Maybe this was a mistake. 
“Well, you already know how I ran into that idol on the street and it completely changed the course of my life, yeah? That’s also shaped my own philosophy on idols. I know the other bees probably told you some bullshit about making people smile and laugh, but it’s more than that. 
“Being an idol is about giving people a place to belong. Crazy:B is there for the underdogs, the people that society tries to crush under its thumb, telling them to get back up and fight back, to speak their mind. If nothing else, we’ll be there to support them. 
“It’s more than just those surface level emotions. Music should resonate with the soul.” Rinne pointed to his heart. “You want to feel the music in your bones, scream those lyrics and mean them with everything you have. Never back down and never give up.” 
Kohaku was entranced for a moment after Rinne was done speaking, expecting something else to come after. 
“That was…very profound of you to say, Rinne-han.” 
“Kyahaha! I’m full of surprises, Kohaku-chan!” 
“But uh, thanks a lot. I think I get it now.” 
“So what exactly is this ‘school project’ you needed this for?” 
“Uh…” Kohaku bolted for the door as Rinne cackled and chased him out, both of them abandoning their practice bags in the room. They could always come back for them later anyway. 
--- 
After thinking about all of the answers he had gotten, Kohaku met up with Aira in the cafeteria again. He set his plate of food down and slid in the booth across from his dear friend who was typing away on his phone. 
“Oh! I didn’t see you, Kohakucchi! You said you had something for me?” Aira tapped the enter key and clicked his phone off, putting it face down on the table. 
“Yeah. I’ve thought about what it means to really be an idol for me and--” 
“You didn’t have to take it that seriously, Kohakucchi! I was mostly just joking with you and Hiiro since you two don’t know anything about idols.” 
Kohaku felt his face flush again. 
“Well if you don’t wanna hear my answer then--” 
“Agh! No I didn’t mean it like that, Kohakucchi! Please tell me!” 
Kohaku flicked a piece of rice at Aira and took a bite of his food. 
“I s’pose I can tell ya then, since you asked so nicely.” Kohaku purposefully chewed slowly on his food as he put his thoughts in order. “Well, Niki-han said being an idol is about making people smile, and doesn’t necessarily mean yer in the music business. Anyone can be an idol in any occupation.” 
Aira nods with a curious look on his face. He almost certainly didn’t agree but found the answer interesting all the same. 
“An’ HiMERU-han said that an idol should be somethin’ anyone can aspire to be, someone’ untouchable but humble.” 
“HiMERU-senpai is kind of old fashioned, though I guess that makes sense.” 
“An’ Rinne-han was Rinne-han. He said idols have to give a voice to the voiceless or somethin’ like that.” 
“He’s more…idealistic than I thought he would be.” Aira took a bite from his snack. “But you still haven’t told me what being an idol means to you, Kohakucchi.” 
It was then that Kohaku realized he hadn’t actually thought of his own answer. He supposed it was probably a mix of the others but… 
--- 
Just like in practice, the music wound down and they all slid into place. Niki’s jump was a beat behind but everyone was able to cover for it, and honestly? It was still a very Crazy:B performance. 
The audience is cheering and Kohaku thinks about what Aira said. You still haven’t told me what being an idol means to you. His eyes scan the crowd and he lands on a group of people towards the back of the small venue. They’re excitedly jumping and yelling with everyone else, decked out in what looked like handmade merch (maybe they couldn’t afford idol merch? It was certainly a possibility). 
He recognized them from a few of their other lives. Did they go to one of their handshake events too? They must have. 
Everything clicks into place as Kohaku realizes why he’s an idol. There are people just like him out there, people who feel isolated by their families from the world, people who can’t connect with others easily who are brought together by Crazy:B’s music. By his music. Because he’s up on stage and having fun with his friends (his new family), people are finding a reason to keep going. 
He smiles and waves to the crowd, smiling brightly at the fans in the back row.

Little Kanata analysis! Puka Pukaaa
HAHihOhUHI, i'm back at it again!!!
Just kidding, I read like, the first half of the Meteor Impact and am mentally on the edge of insane.
But...ignore it for now...
I wanna talk about our little god Kanata today!!!
Is our boy Kanata silly? Yes!
Is he also smart as hell? Yes!
Is he strong? YES 👏 HE 👏 IS 👏
I think a-lot of people misunderstood Kanata characteristics.
He's not just a happy, friendly-looking, puka puka water god! He's more than that!
I know you're all thinking that, because he has been seen as a god for all his childhood and still slowly making progress about learning the world around him, that means he must be just one kind and cute little fish right?
Haha...
Clearly, that was never the case...
He's smart from the very beginning, and the things he doesn't know or can't understand don't mean he's completely stupid at it.
Kanata can sense things, and sense people's emotions, he's not a god who brought wishes to his people in all though years for nothing!
When Kanata meets Chiaki for the first time, he can sense something wrong with him.
And the next time they meet, Kanata also able to sense it very well!
Chiaki in the old time, once wish Kuro ( who was being beat up badly most of the time when they got a chance to face each other ) to be better. He wish all the one that bullied Kuro to be "serve by justice".
It didn't take Kanata long to find out about it. Heck! He doesn't even need a word from Chiaki to understand Chiaki's wishes.
Did I mention that Kanata at that time was really bad at communicating? He did not know much and only when you speak slowly and use easy words will he be able to talk back.
And yet! He was able to detect Chiaki wishes and did it in under one day!
Chiaki was dumbfounded when Kuro tell him that all the one that hate him is now being beat up so badly, they get scared and apologizes Kuro. ( boy did predict that on time... )
Also, Kanata is really smart, he didn't understand much but that didn't mean he couldn't do a thing with the knowledge he already had in hand.
There were many time when Kanata use the word "God" to describe other things.
Tumblr media
And just like Kanata, we'll do the same!
People's brains tend to use the old things, the stuff they already knew to help make up meaning for new things.
With that being said, Kanata is not used to the outside world, so it is normal for him to keep using the word "God" as a base/standard of view.
Later on, his view of mind is a little more open, going as far as taking advantage of his position as a "God" to help Chiaki track down Rinne and Niki.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rinne is also a smart-ass, but he himself has to admit that Kanata would use a move that he never be able to predicted.
Also, Kanata is really strong:
Tumblr media
If you already read the main story, then you'll have to remember the part when Kanata carried both Rinne and Niki in his arms, getting from some ramen shop a far whatsoever place to the DreamFes! WITH JUST HIS TWO ARMS!
Chiaki was with Kanata, yes, but he's busy with driving them from the shop to DreamFes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In both "Intersecting MotorShow" and "Leap into the Future"
We can see how Kanata was successful capture our Hero Chiaki and corner him right away.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kanata knew Chiaki well, and by that, he was helping the RYUSEITAI to grow.
Kanata wasn't just a little fish god, he was Chiaki biggest emotional support and the helping hand of RYUSEITAI.
If not for him, Chiaki wouldn't have a chance to dance with RYUSEITAI in the "Intersecting MotorShow"
If not for him, we didn't be able to have the 5* Chiaki card in the "Leap into the Future" event
Because when Chiaki decided to leave Tetora and hoped that Tetora would be able to grow as how he did.
Kanata said that this is not that of a "dark era" anymore, the kids need you.
Tumblr media
So Chiaki got on with that advice, joining Tetora and the others to play game, helping Tetora to get some time to relax.
Ah...I think that all is for today.
I'm tired, but I hope that this analysis will help you to understand Kanata more.
I love Kanata a lot, and so does the love for Chiaki, and RYUSEITAI !
Thank you for take for time to read this, hope you'll have a good day.
Send a thank you to @collectorcookie for giving me the inspiration to make this whole-ass post.

Hello! that batch of confession hcs you did was so cute 🥺 hope you dont mind that Im asking for more! Midori and Tetora, please!
and maybe a little chiaki if someone hasnt already requested, as a treat
Tumblr media Tumblr media
☆—MORISAWA CHIAKI
Who confesses first: Chiaki!
How: during a tokusatsu movie!
As a way for you all to end the day with some much-needed R&R, you and the RYUSEITAI gang have a weekly routine of watching movies at the end of the week together. Or, at least, you used to.
The movie is supposed to be chosen on a weekly basis, since that makes it so that everyone gets to choose at least once, but you somehow manage to end up forfeiting your turn to Chiaki every time.
You can’t help it! His puppy dog eyes are so effective, it physically pains you to turn him down…
But the Ryusei kids decide to put their feet down after the fourth time you agree to watch another tokusatsu movie as per Chiaki’s pleading request.
They’ve had enough.
After that, you’re forcibly booted out of movie nights.
“Sorry, senpai. It’s for the greater good.”
Shinobu-kun looks apologetic, at the very least.
Of course, Chiaki can’t stand to see any injustice happen on his watch and instead offers to have a special movie night with just the two of you.
You’re not even torn up about it, but the hopeful look in Chiaki’s eyes and the way he seems to sparkle at the thought of being your hero, even for a day, makes you agree.
Chiaki asks you if you want to pick the movie, and you say no.
The kids are going to be so disappointed in you, you think despairingly, when Chiaki picks–big surprise–a tokusatsu movie.
All things considered, even though Mechanical Violator Hakaider isn’t too bad, it’s still not something you’d consider watching in your free time of your own volition. 
Though, Chiaki makes a rather nice snuggle buddy if you do say so yourself. He’s lithe yet muscular, supporting your body as you curl into his side, his arm around your shoulders, your face buried into him.
At the end of the movie, Chiaki turns to you with a somber expression and you wonder if you were that terrible a movie partner.
Instead, what he says next causes a blush to erupt furiously across your face.
“Is it…is it wrong of me to say that I’m…kind of happy that you were kicked out of RYUSEITAI movie night? Because I got to spend more time with you, alone… Sometimes I’m jealous that other people get to spend so much time with you… I love being your friend…so…is it bad that I want more? And I might be reading too much into this but…I think you want the same?”
You?
Goddamn.
You forget sometimes that Chiaki isn’t just the hero-obsessed meathead everyone likes to paint him as. That he’s actually pretty good at reading people.
You’re stammering, because he’s right, but it’s still really embarrassing to be found out like that!?
Chiaki frowns to himself. Was he wrong after all? Do you not like him the way he likes you?
Finally, you manage to choke out a simple, Y-yes, I like you too, and he’s all smiley again.
“Great ☆! So…can I kiss you, babe?”
Ooh, boy.
Tumblr media
☆—NAGUMO TETORA
Who confesses first: you!
How: after RYUSEITAI practice!
It’s the end of the day, and you’re ready to kick back and relax with your friend. Except you can’t, since said friend seems to be missing?
You know RYUSEITAI practice has ended, since you say Morisawa-senpai and Kanata-senpai a few corridors away, so it’s logical to assume that Tetora went back to his dorm. But you know better, so you keep going to the practice hall.
And lo and behold, what do you find but you find your friend sweating bullets as he runs through the choreography again and again.
As you watch, he stumbles over a particularly tricky piece of footwork, then curses loudly.
Why can’t he get anything right? He’ll never be a real man if he lets things like this overwhelm him. He needs to be better.
You call out to him and he looks up, a deer in headlights. What are you doing here?
You tell him you didn’t see him anywhere, so you came to check up on him.
Shame sinks in. He worried his precious friend and caused you to come all the way to the practice hall to make sure he was okay. He couldn’t even notify you that he was fine, or ask one of his senpai to do it for him… He’s a horrible friend, he doesn’t deserve you.
Of course, you notice right away that he’s feeling down, so you offer to stay and keep him company while he practices more.
Immediately refuses.
“No way! I couldn't bother you like that, you’ve been working so hard! You should rest! I’ll be fine.”
It’s because he doesn’t want to impose upon you he’s saying this, even though he’d rather you stay with him then leave him alone. But that’s being selfish, isn’t it?
You tell him outright he’s not a burden.
“Toracchi, I would do anything for you. I don’t mind worrying about you, because I love you.”
He blinks. You…love him?
You flush, realising too late what you said, but keep going. You love him and you want him to be happy, so if practising late makes him happy, you’re happy to just stay and watch.
Brightens immediately after you say this.
His energy levels have risen up! He is invigorated by your confession of love!
“I’ll do my best this time, for you!”
Tumblr media
☆—TAKAMINE MIDORI
Who confesses first: Midori!
How: by accident! Poor baby…
You’re selling some Valkyrie merch that you created yourself, and you’re proudly displaying your wares at a booth near the gardens. Mika, standing next to you, clutches your sleeve, a little embarrassed by the large sign he’s holding that proclaims, Come support Valkyrie, the most amazing unit ever ☆!
Most of the merchandise are pins, keychains and the like, but there are a few stuffed mascots you’ve painstakingly taken the time to create: a black kitten with two-toned eyes, a pink fox with a haughty expression, a smaller blond fox situated next to it, and a small white and pink bunny.
Midori stumbles accidentally upon your booth, but his attention is immediately grabbed by the adorable plushies seated primly in front of him.
Oh…so cute…
You notice where his eyes have drifted off to and smile brightly.
“Hi, Takamine! Do you want a plushie! I’ll give you a discount, 50% off for cute boys only ☆!”
He flushes a light pink and mumbles, sure, because you’re being unbearably nice to him and if you could turn that blinding smile away from him that would be great, thanks
You give him the pick of the pile, surprised when he goes for the bunny before anything else. He snuggles it close to his chest and a faint smile comes over his features.
Cuteeee, you think to yourself. +10000 damage to your heart!
That’ll be ¥500, you chirp. Thank you for your purchase, and be sure to support Valkyrie more in the future! because you can never resist the chance to promote your most favourite unit ever (though, RYUSEITAI is a close second!).
Midori means to say, thank you, I love it, and then hopefully leave so he never has to see your perfect smile directed at him again but his brain has turned to mush when he sees you run your fingers over the spines of the plushies like…you’re petting them…
So instead, what comes out is:
“Thank it, I love you.”
There’s a moment of intense silence, where your stubborn attempt to make eye contact after that bombshell clashes with Midori’s equally stubborn refusal to look up. Mika’s eyes swivel between the two of you like he’s watching an intense badminton tournament.
Kill me now, Midori thinks balefully. If the Gods have any mercy they will strike me down right this instant and let me rot in the hollows of the Earth.
The Gods, of course, do not respond. Stupid fucking Gods.
“Aw, thanks! I love you too!”
Midori cannot fucking believe his ears. Neither can Mika, if the wide-eyed look on his face is anything to go by.
Oh dear, this is too much. Midori nearly falls flat on his face as he runs out of the area as fast as he can. Love you, babe~☆, your voice trills out behind him, and he feels his heart race.
Hnnnggg. He buries his head into the plushie’s stomach. You were way more trouble than you’re worth.
Oshi-san’s not g’na be happy, y’re fraternisin’ with the enemy, Mika warns. You giggle.
“Don’t be silly, Mikkun. Takamine’s too cute to be the enemy. Now…Amagi on the other hand…”
☆—notes!

Saga: Rivals - 15
Writer: Akira
Season: Winter
Characters: Tori, Hokuto, Chiaki
Proofreading: moricchiichan (JP) & Peace (ENG)
Translation: kotofucius
Tori: I have to ask in a way that won’t drive him further into a corner — Eichi-sama has been hurt enough.
Tumblr media
[Read on my blog for the best viewing experience with Oi~ssu ♪]
Location: Soundproof Lesson Room
Tori: …Mm. I got it. Thanks for telling me everything.
Hokuto: It’s not everything, though. Just the general summary of what happened. The war last year was chaos, involving many different factions.
I don’t think anyone had a bird’s-eye comprehension of the whole picture. But the same could be said for the present… Only God knows the truth.
Tumblr media
Tori: ……
Hokuto: …What’s wrong, Himemiya? That was a chance for you to chime in with a “God's nose is loose?”, you know.
Tori: I'm not in the mood… But in any case, yeah, I get it.
I've heard bits and pieces from Yuzuru during Starfes, and it's not like I’m stupid or anything…
I’d already picked up on a lot of things from rumors going around, and with your explanation I more or less understand the whole thing.
Chiaki: Is that right? All the same, what Hidaka and I told you were stories from our own points of view, so I think you should hear it from Tenshouin, too.
I’m sure he won’t gloss over it or justify himself. He’ll tell you everything, if it’s what you want, Himemiya.
But keep this in mind — The main character of the revolution last year was fine, Tenshouin. He was at the heart of it, fighting the longest, and that had certainly left him with scars.
He achieved a brilliant revolution at the end of it, but it’s probably not a fun story to tell…
So if you want to ask him, I hope you’ll be as nice as you can about it.
Tori: Yeah. If it’s now, I’m sure Prez will tell me the truth, without trying to look good or lying.
But speaking the truth means he can’t tell lies that protect himself.
I have to ask in a way that won’t drive him further into a corner — Eichi-sama has been hurt enough.
…Ehehe, but I feel like a weight's been lifted off my shoulders. I dunno if it’s because they take me for a fool or what, but nobody would explain it to me until now.
Only hinting that something happened… That only annoyed me and gave me more questions, you know?
Chiaki: Mm… I guess it would.
I’ll probably have to tell my juniors in Ryuseitai about the past too, one of these days.
I can’t keep trying to look cool; it’s a rule that a hero’s transformation must come with a time limit.
But you know… However I try to wrap it, it's just really gloomy and embarrassing, and a bit too grisly as a tale to tell.
I really don’t like exposing my kids to that, if I can help it.
Tumblr media
Tori: See? Always treating us like little kids. We’re not even that far apart in age. The upperclassmen in this school are all like that.
Anyway, Sagami-sensei already told us about the history of the idol industry before. If that was like the history of this country, then what you told me just now is probably contemporary history, right?
The story that’s directly connected… with the times we’re living in now.
We’re included in that history, and the future will be written according to the actions we take from hereon, right?
Maybe that’s plain as day, but it’s still so strange to think about~ ♪
Anyway, I wanna organize the facts, so I’ll be summarizing them in my own words. Correct me if I say something strange or get something wrong.
Hokuto: Alright. My father and Sagami-sensei went to the chairman’s room by themselves, for coverage on the show today or whatever it was they said…
The academy probably thinks just having those two, the key people of Project-Saga, would be enough,
But I don’t like it. It’s like they think we’re not worth their time.
Well, let’s not talk about that… We’re excused from afternoon classes to focus on practice, so we still have much time to spare.
Chiaki: Yeah. When the members of Lilith arrive and the teachers come back, we’ll do some greetings to start with and have a joint practice, right?
It’s great that we’ll get to feel the strength of our greatest rival from up close.
Hokuto: I agree. But from what I heard, that Lilith group is basically my father plus Eve — so it’s making my head hurt, personally.
I still haven’t won against Eve, and my father is a constant nuisance.
Tori: Eve… So Hiyori-sama will be here too.
He kinda insulted me around Summer Live, so I don’t have that good of an impression of him…
I was a bit disillusioned, since I’d been his huge fan before that…
Though it was my own fault for mistaking my own idealization of Hiyori-sama for the truth.
Hokuto: Hmm, so Tomoe-senpai insulted you, Himemiya? On the other hand, I don’t have such a bad impression of him —
I was confused at first — he got on my nerves a lot, too — but the things he said were in themselves right…
He wiped us out unsparingly onstage too; it was an admirable feat, and a great lesson.
Tori: Yup. I get that he’s admirable as an idol. It’s just something regarding our families, you see…
Let’s just say we rich people have a lot going on, okay? Commoners like you probably won't understand, senpai!
Chiaki: Yeah. I especially don’t get it. But Hidaka’s plenty wealthy too, so he can probably see where you’re coming from somewhat?
Hokuto: No… My family is a bit unique, we’re not really involved with the others that dominate the area. We’re completely unfamiliar with their conflicts and history.
Tori: Mm, alright. I’ll tell you a bit about it later, then! In return for telling me about what went on in Yumenosaki Academy.
Anyway, we’ve gotten sidetracked. I’ll summarize what you just told me.
The original super idol was a godlike man who created everything in the idol industry…
The many super idols in history tried to succeed after him, by ruling over their respective eras like kings.
But none of them held a candle to their God, the first idol —
Then that God vanished from the public eye, and even passed away, losing his influence…
There was that terrible scandal too, pushing the idol industry to a long winter.
Hokuto: Ahh… SS was a nationwide broadcast, so you also know about that case, huh, Himemiya?
Tumblr media
Tori: Yeah. …I wonder how Akehoshi-senpai manages to always laugh like a fool despite his background.
If I’d been in the same position… I definitely wouldn’t be able to recover.
Just imagining that kind of tragedy happening to my dear Papa and Mama… Just the thought of it makes me wanna cry.
Hidaka-senpai, you have to be Akehoshi-senpai’s support.
Chiaki: I ask you the same thing, Hidaka. Of course, I also plan to be a good support for him.
Hokuto: You don’t have to tell me, I will be. …Let’s stop talking about this. I don’t want to pretend it never happened, but I don’t think we should gossip so loudly about it, either.
Tori: Okay. Continuing on… In the wintry times, Sagami-sensei appeared and revived the idol industry for just a moment.
This achievement was the reason Project-Saga kicked off — they expected him to revive the industry once more.
But at that time, Sagami-sensei retired prematurely, and there’s no longer anyone to stop things from going downhill…
Both the idol industry, and Yumenosaki — which stood at the center of it — entered a dark age.

In need of a break.
———————————————————————————
Tumblr media
I wrote this extremely fast tbh since i’m not ready to be pumping out masterpieces yet.. but this was still fun and gave me a bit of motivation!! 🥹
Ler! Rei x Lee! Chiaki
( interpret as you wish )
No CW’s or TW’s apply other than tickles ❤️
———————————————————————————

Quickly gobbling down the food before him, Chiaki practically slammed the fork onto his plate before getting up. The hero had been running back ‘n forth for the past few days between jobs and live shows. Finally having time, some time, to quickly grab some lunch back at ES. Within a matter of minutes he downed his food and drink, prepared to rush back out and continue to the next job. Hopefully he looked good, it was a part in a movie after all!
Cleaning up his plates and silverware, Chiaki turned to run back outside, only to slam face first right into someone's chest. Stumbling backwards with a yelp of surprise emitting from him.
“AH-!! I’m sorry! I’m in a rush right now– …Sakuma?”
The brunette questioned in surprise to see Rei up at such an hour. Nonetheless standing so close. The ravenette before him has his mouth covered, though judging by trembling shoulders, he was stifling a bout of laughter from Chiaki’s previous reaction.
“Fufu~ Indeed.. Where are you running off to in such a rush? Another job offer?”
The self proclaimed vampire questioned as Chiaki gave a quick nod. Moving to brush past Rei shortly afterwards.
“Yes! And, it's an important one too! So I really must get goi– Hey!?”
Chiaki exclaimed as Rei swiftly grabbed onto the shorter idol's arm. Pulling the hero back and wrapping his arms around the other's torso from behind. Sighing heavily as he rests his chin atop one of Chiaki's shoulders. The brunette growing a tad flustered, he turned his head.
“My dearest friend Kanata has been mentioning how you have been working yourself to the bone recently. Even Kaoru has spoken up on such a thing, and I know those two are quite close friends to you.”
Rei pointed out as Chiaki remained silent for once.
“If those two are concerned, then I am as well~ You should take a break for the rest of the day, Morisawa. I can easily have it arranged for your work to be moved to the next day, or a day later.”
The undead leader explained as Chiaki gave a small huff, wiggling a little as he tried slipping out of the others arms.
“Sakuma! I have to get going! I’m usually all for games but I'm fine! If I don’t get through these jobs then how else am I going to keep supporting Ryuseitai, HUH??”
Chiaki questioned in turn as Rei gave a small huff. His grip around the hero is surprisingly firm.
“There are five members in Ryuseitai, Morisawa. Not all of the workload has to be dumped onto you. Kanata can take care of his own, and surely those kids are more than capable.”
Rei pointed out as Chiaki tried ducking down to slip out of the others arms. The sight was rather amusing as Rei practically hoisted Chiaki back up. The brunette practically yelled in frustration.
“Those kids don't deserve such a burden though! They're only kids, and I know how much they enjoy spending their hard earned funds to afford the things they enjoy! Kanata can take care of his own, but if I can bear most of the burden then I will!”
Chiaki exclaimed before nearly crumbling as Rei squeezed at his sides. Just so suddenly out of the blue..
“Do we have to do things the hard way then, Morisawa? You have fallen into the demon king’s clutches after all~ I will inform Tenshouin to take care of your workload for the day.”
Rei stated as Chiaki grabbed onto the others arms. Struggling to push Rei back against the counter behind them
“No, no! I can finish it all and take a break tomorrow– AH!?”
The hero yelped once again as the vampire's fingers slowly began wiggling against his captives' sides. Chuckling in turn as he listened to Chiaki begin to frantically giggle and wiggle around within his hold.
“If you don't agree then I guess I'll have to convince you another way. After all, the hero couldn't break free from my hold before. How on earth will he do so now that i’ve discovered such a weakness?~”
Rei teased as he dug his fingers in a bit harder. Alternating between scratching along Chiaki’s sides, and squeezing them. The brunette was rather quick to begin laughing,despite his struggle to keep the giggles in earlier, face burning as red as his typical Ryuseitai color. He struggled to push Rei’s arms away, or slip from his grasp. But, in all honesty, he was already completely exhausted from working so frequently. Not to mention struggling with his low blood pressure more than normal. Rei of course knew this, not from Kanata, nor Kaoru, but because he could tell how weak Chiaki seemed from the start. And, compared to Rei, Chiaki should have easily been able to break free from such a grasp.
“S-Stop Sahahakuma l-let gohoho!”
The hero laughed and stomped his foot against the floor a few times. A few snorts even escaped him from how hard the giggles were bursting out. Rei of course couldn't help but laugh at this. Chiaki truly was adorable. He could very much see the appeal.
“Oh? Is the hero admitting defeat then?”
Rei questioned before Chiaki quickly shook his head in turn.
“Kuku~ I was hoping you’d say that. Guess you’ll have to endure it some more, won’t you? Let's see… Perhaps a different spot will change your mind.~”
Rei practically hummed against the other ear as he moved his arms up a bit higher. Just enough so he could begin attacking at the hero’s ribcage. That was practically flipping a switch within Chiaki. Bursting into a loud laugh and lurching forward, he shook his head a little before pressing back against Rei’s chest.
“GYAHAHA-!! NOOHOHO SAKUMAHAHA!”
The brunette practically squealed as Rei whistled with surprise. What a far different reaction than before!
“Oho!~ Did I find a weak spot? Hm? Can’t the hero take a little tickling? Surely he can since he wants to break his bones working so hard.”
The vampire chuckled as Chiaki shoved at Rei’s hands, only for the other to grab Chiaki’s wrists in turn. Pulling them behind the hero’s back, and gripping them within one hand. Moving his free hand back around to continue his work.
Chiaki couldn’t believe how easily this was working in Rei’s favor, and he could feel himself growing more, and more, tired by the minute. At this rate, he’d end up collapsing before even returning to work! Though he knew that wouldn’t be happening. He’s basically screwed.
“O-OKAHAHAY OKAY QUIHIHIT-!”
Chiaki exclaimed through his bubbly laughter, only to yelp with his knees giving out below him as Rei’s hand had worked its way upwards. Slipping just beneath the hero’s arm..
“Whoops-!” Rei gasped as he quickly caught Chiaki before the other had hit the floor. Scooping the brunette up into his arms, Chiaki panted as he lay limp against the taller idol. For a moment he hadn't even cared.. Only until Rei laughed and cradled Chiaki within his arms.
“Look at you! All red faced and exhausted like that! You shouldnt be showing such weakness around villains like me, Morisawa.~”
The vampire teased as he moved a hand to skitter his fingers across Chiaki’s stomach teasingly. The hero was quick to jolt and grab at the other's wrist.
“GAH-! Stop! I’ll take a break! Just enough..” The tired idol huffed as he dropped his head against Rei’s shoulder. The ravenette gave an amused smile in response.
“Good, I'll take you back to your dorm then and inform Tenshouin about your break. You truly should take care of yourself more, Morisawa. It wasn’t hard to tell how exhausted you are from the start.”
Rei pointed out as Chiaki gave a small huff in complaint. Eyes closed as he allowed Rei to carry him with a surprising amount of ease.
“I know.. I’ll try to focus on it more. Kanata and Hakaze are allowed to wack me on the head if they so wish..”
“Or they could simply tickle you til you agree.~” Rei commented with a grin, just for Chiaki to quickly glare in turn. “Don’t start giving them ideas or anything!!”
Not that they don’t already know..
Chiaki was a bit grateful despite the embarrassment received. He felt exhausted, and was really looking forward to getting some well deserved rest. Though he was positive he’d be hearing about this from both Kanata and Kaoru sooner or later..

my animal crossing island might be named after onisister but there is another team in my heart. so i spent a normal amount of hours designing a ryuseitai-themed upstairs for kid cat in hhp
Tumblr media
and it is
Elaborate
so allow me to. well. to speak further in depth on this topic
Tumblr media
first off, the centerpiece of the whole room, the media center. they dont all get to gather in the a/v room like last year so they get this.
behind the projector is a patchwork sofa chair in the 'leaves' colorway, which combines with the loveseat, the cushion, and the barstool to form the seating arrangements. its not actually a hard and fast arrangement, chiaki radiates heat which kanata can only stand for so long, so he'll switch with one of the juniors or just kick chiaki off the couch entirely if feeling particularly puckish.
also visible here is the sushi on the kitchenette, the fries and basil-y tomato-y pizza margherita on the coffee table, and the "galbi" (carpaccio di marlin blu) and "hyorogan" (coconut cookies, i couldnt find anything that looked like shinobus actual favorite food, umeboshi. i think if i had cherry jam? closest legal relative, but still more of a stretch than the coconut cookie-hyorogan stretch. like, hyorogan does actually look like that.)
so, from here, we go to the specific areas
Tumblr media
a pond for pukapuka, some fish, what more could you possibly need?
though the glow stickers on the wall were probably not put there by kanata himself but rather by the person who put the rest of the glow stickers up,
Tumblr media
shinobu! froggie chair. another one with not a lot to point out, everythings pretty self explanatory. i was going to make this space more enclosed, because, you know, ninja, but i was running out of space. i couldve maybe done better if there wasnt a doorway in the middle of the other wall and it could be off to the side or something.
also the middle thing on the wall there is a switch lite, because im not sure how much of a gamer shinobu is but i know he was really excited when he learned hasumi-dono knew about p*kemon....
the keroppi snack could belong to either shinobu or the person on the other side of the divider,
Tumblr media
midori! this is an awkward photo. i dont actually very much sanrio furniture despite having the cards, otherwise i wouldve used it more here, im too lazy to scan them in. otherwise the posters of the sanrio villagers would be on the wall next to jack, who stands at the precipice of midori's chill out zone to scare off chiaki, which otherwise contains nothing but plushies, a futon to take a depression nap on, and a tv to secretly enjoy things on (which is apple shaped because midori is the produce boy).
and then across the doorway is
Tumblr media
see, this is a much larger space, i couldve used fewer tiles, but because i wasnt trying to replicate a set like i was for the crazy anthem one, i was actually minding the doors and windows of the space.
ok so the. the cross-stitch. ok. i thought there was like a folding fan or some framed embroidery or something, but there is NOT, so. tetora's prized gift from his beloved taishou is. cross stitch (cock (manly)).
Tumblr media
this is another area which is mostly self-explanatory. the thing next to the basketball is a pile of model kits, no idea if chiaki actually does those, but it is more toku merch, so.
the picture frame in the shelves is a customizable thing and i didnt vibe with any of the options so thats a. custom design i made to spice up my beaches. its transparent, so. lets just call it a shadow box displaying a shell chiaki recieved as a gift or something.
also theyre like switching leaders every project now but you see that stack of papers? you know whos probably doing like, the most of the paperwork. probably wont even let anyone else do it even if they ask. what paperwork. theres barely any paperwork theres no paperwork what are you talking about.

Featherary day 3: Tickle spot
This is based on the 2nd chapter of the sanrio scout story 'cause I just loved that scene sm and decided to tickly-fy it x3
Plus I wanna write for other Ryuseitai members soo yeah- (rip Tetora)
Tumblr media
___________________________________________
Shinobu x Niki (+ Midori & Mayoi) platonic
Lee: Niki
Ler: Shinobu
Warnings: Tickles!
___________________________________________
Mayoi happily walked into café Cinnamon, looking for his purple friend, when he was suddenly approached by Niki.
"Oh, you seem to be in a really good mood today Mayo~".
"Eek! A-am I being too obvious...?".
"Maybe not to others, but you can't fool my nose, y'know? You smell better than usual... like sweet cream... really makes me wanna have a bite~" Niki grinned mischeviously over at the nervous male.
"W-what?! B-but I'll taste terrible!".
Niki ignored his please as he slowly got closer to Mayoi, a teasy smug look on his face, as Mayoi only shrieked in fear.
...Somewhere else in Café Cinnamon...
Shinobu and Midori had gathered to eat some sweets alongside Mayoi, except their purple friend hadn't arrived yet. That's when Midori noticed him on the other side with Niki. "...What are those two doing over there?".
"Ahah, I wanted to ask that aswell..." Shinobu chuckled a bit nervously at their weird banter. " I feel like there's some grand conversation going on between them".
"It seems like they're fooling around but, don't you think their body contact is becoming fiercer?" Midori asked concerned as he noticed Niki trying to take a bite from Mayoi's cheek.
"Actually, they may be starting a fight?! What's going on? Lord Mayoi is supposed to be having desserts with us, but now he's gotten himself into some weird trouble?!".
They both got lost in thought for a moment as to what could be happening, before Midori spoke "Oh, I get it! They must be acting out some hero shows, like the ones Morisawa makes us do all the time! So, that's what you guys have been doing in the ninja club?".
"Are they really? I don't remember doing roleplays like this with Lord Mayoi..."
"Nahaha~ Now you can't escape from me, Mayo~".
"Eeeeeek!!! Where are you Chieftain?!"
Shinobu's head instantly perked up at Mayoi's shriek "H-hey! Lord Mayoi is calling my name! You're right Midori, it's time a hero- no, a ninja makes an entrance! Let's rescue him together!".
"What? Why am I also in this?".
"Please, Midori! I really need help from a comrade like you! No hero or ninja should run away in a time like this! Come with me!".
Shinobu took on a heroic stance "Yellow flames are the proof of hope! A miracle, shining a ray of light into the darkness! Here's RYUSEI Yellow: Shinobu Sengoku!".
Midori following after, albeit still a bit hesitant "G-green flames are the proof of kindness! Nature that grows infinitely! Here's RYUSEI Green: Midoro Takamine!".
The two heroes rushed over to the scene, Mayoi exclaiming in delight when his eyes fell upon the cute ninja "Chieftain!".
"Don't worry, Lord Mayoi! Call my name aloud, and I will sure come to your side wherever you are!"after reassuring Mayoi, Shinobu quickly turned his attention towards Niki. "And you! The "Hungry Café Baddie"!".
""Hungry Baddie"? You mean me? You Ryuseitai kids give pretty good nicknames".
"He's unexpectedly friendly?!" Shinobu exclaimed, feeling a bit unsure of himself. "Morisawa never taught us what to do in situations like these...".
Midori let out a sigh "As much as I agreed to tag along... it feels depressing that I want to run away so badly...".
Shinobu thought for a moment, before gaining back his heroic stance "I won't be deceived! I won't let you run around hurting the innocent anymore! Take this! "Ninja Art: The Ryuseitai Lightwave!". He jabbed Niki right in the stomach, causing him to let out a yelp.
"ACK-! H-hold on! That's my tickle spot!".
"Did you hear that, Midori? The "Hungry Baddie" is ticklish! Let's get him!" Shinobu sent Niki a teasy smirk as he launched himself at him, wrapping his arms around his midsection and scribbling wherever his small fingers would reach.
"W-wahait! S-stahap that you brahahat!" Niki giggled hysterically as he tried prying off the smaller male off of him.
"He's a real squirmer. Midori, hold him down!".
Midori let out the 500th sigh of the day. Feeling a bit hesitant, but he still complied to his partner's request, hooking his arms under Niki to prevent him from squirming too much "S-sorry about this...".
Niki raised a brow in suspicion before an ear-shattering squeal escaped his throat "WAH- HYAHAHAHA! N-NOT THEHEHERE!". Niki threw his head back in laughter as Shinobu dug all fingers into his stomach.
"My secret weapon! The RYUSEI tickle barrage!" Shinobu snickered at his own sillyness, not showing any mercy on poor Niki's belly.
"NAHAHA! T-THAT'S SO BAHAHAD!" poor Niki shrieked in laughter, his face crimson red.
"So, do you give up?!" Shinobu slowed down his fingers a bit, but still didn't let up.
"Ahahaha! O-okay! I-I gihihive...!" Niki wheezed in laughter, his eyes turning a bit teary. At that, Midori let go of him as Shinobu halted his tickly fingers. Niki instantly collapsing on a nearby couch.
"Victory is ours, Midori!" Shinobu pumped his fist in the air, while Midori only looked like he wanted to burry his head underground.
Once Niki regained his composure, he stood back up. Even though it was a fun encounter, he wasn't sure what all that was about "What was that all about?".
"Huh? I thought this is what you guys did in the ninja club".
"No, I thought you were hurting lord Mayoi so we came to rescue him!".
"Huh? I was just messing around with him. I'm used to messing around with my unitmates, but I guess I can see why you'd think differently. I'm sorry Mayoi".
"W-wait, I'm sorry. It was my fault for overreacting..." Mayoi apologized, feeling all shameful.
"No, it's my fault for jumping to such conclusions, I'm sorry...".
"Well... instead of feeling sorry, how about we eat some delicious desserts~ All that tickling left me pretty hungry" Niki managed to lightened up the mood as the other three nodded happily. He quickly went to whip up their tasty snacks, shortly after the four of them eating happily. Hopefully no one saw their weird hero show display, that for sure will embarrass Shinobu and Midori for days to come.

here is every chiakao thought i have had in the past week i need to DIE IM EMBARRASSED
if you look on their wikis, chiaki's trivia says his dream is to eat a lunch box his gf prepares and kaoru's says he is good at cooking and in red hot island, kaoru cooked for chiaki so basically they are canon (i am delusional)
in chiakis phone call he says hes at the cafe with kaoru and that was actually a date because he was treating kaoru to pancakes (delusional #2)
despite saying that he does not care for his male classmates, in their second year (crossroad) kaoru tells chiaki that he seems like a good kid so he doesnt understand why he would be associated with ryuseitai (chews my arm off)
have said this one a million times but who gives a fuck!!!! chiaki seeing the two of them as friends in kaorus birthday message in 2018 and kaoru being like i dont recall us ever getting to know each other like that :/ to chiakis 2022 birthday talk and kaoru showing up like hey moricchi 🙈... ofc chiaki wasnt kaoru's first male friend but it's nice to see their development throughout a few stories
remember in date plan how kaoru and chiaki were gonna sing karaoke and chiaki was gonna sing undead songs and kaoru ryuseitai ones? well after they did that chiaki (hes half mexican btw) started singing love songs in spanish (i was there so this is true)
those watches they wear are actually matching ones (delusional #3)
they had matching necklaces in red hot island and i know eichi and leo had them too but this isnt abt them ok let me be delusional and say that they got matching ones and eichi and leo just bought the same ones bcuz they are friends (delusional #4)
remember when chiaki was like "youre so talented im jealous if you cant be an idol then who can? if youre ever in trouble feel free to depend on me" like bro do u need some time alone or some shit damn 😭😭😭
remember when chiaki was like "hakaze is dazzling" like ok thats normal to say...... and when kaoru was like "moricchi is so warm" like (looks around)
tbh they probably went to watch the fireworks one time before they dated or whatever and kaoru was like omg this is so romantic i should totally bring a girl on a date like this next and chiaki was like damn i thought this was a date like i dont think hes an idiot but this shit would be funny u cant tell me its not (this definitely never happened to me but it didnt involve fireworks)
me and the 4 spanish songs i associate with them against the world by the way.... you will never understand the way my mind works (el primer tonto and el chico del apartamento 512 are so them core pls just say u see my vision i can explain this later)
i wanna say that they would keep each other as the others lockscreens but at the same time no they wouldnt because chiaki loves his heroes too much and thats ok
me and the bad bitch i pulled by being autistic
wait i forgot what else i was gonna say..... oh well..... natsume said they were dating idk what other proof you need guys :/

『Scorpio's Venom』 Capture your heart/Chapter 2
〖Translated by RainRise〗
Tumblr media
Chiaki: Can't you hear me? Oi Hakaze!
Kaoru: Yes yes, I can hear you~ Don't call my name out loud.
Hi, Moricchi. Good afternoon, Anzu-chan.
Chiaki: Hi! It's a coincidence to meet you in a place like this☆
Kaoru: Ahaha, really......
Eum... What were you two talking about? It seemed to be serious for some reason...?
Chiaki: So were you trying to leave? It's me and you, you don't have to worry.
Actually, I was having a personal consultation with Anzu.
Kaoru: Personal consultation?
Chiaki: I'm planning to visit the hospital that took care of me when I was little. In order to cheer up the children, we would like to hold a creative hero show within the hospital ☆
No budget, of course. I had no choice but to use ready-made costumes, so I wanted to rely on the members of Ryuseitai.
On the day I want to, everyone has got their job.
That's why I asked Anzu if I could adjust the member's schedule...
Kaoru: Judging by Anzu-chan's condition, it doesn't seem like she'll be able to adjust.
Tumblr media
Kaoru: f it's impossible, why not just do it on another day?
Chiaki: Hmmm. Anzu said that too. But if possible, I don't want to change the due date.
The reason I decided to visit because I got a letter from the hospitalized child.
That kid seems to like heroes. He sent me a letter, apparently knowing that I went to the same hospital.
Heroes are indomitable. Never give up no matter how hard it gets.
While there are powerful words written that will help you overcome your illness and become a real hero someday...
It seemed that he was about to undergo a major surgery, and I could feel his anxiety from every corner.
That's why I want to visit him before surgery and show him a hero who can overcome evil to give him courage. I'm rooting for you, I want to tell you to do your best
Luckily, I was able to make an appointment for the day before the surgery...
Tumblr media
Kaoru: It was impossible for other children.
You can't do a hero show alone. Certainly, under such circumstances, is it impossible to change the date of the visit?
Anzu-chan, what's wrong? Do you have any suggestion?
Anzu: (Ask Hakaze to help Chiaki).
Chiaki: Why don't you ask Hakaze to appear in the Hero Show?
Kaoru: I've never played a hero.
Even if I'm inexperienced, I should be able to do it. He said that his performance in the youth drama was even more impressive than he had expected.
Chiaki: Hakaze huh..
Kaoru: Moricchi? Why are you staring at me?
Chiaki: Hmmm, I think Takamine's costume would fit!
I didn't know there was a way to rely on other "units". Although it was supposed to be a creative hero show, it was a blind spot
Nice idea, Anzu……☆
Kaoru: Eum.... I haven't accepted it yet...? I have to check my schedule to see if I have work.
"I'll look it up right away"? Thank you, Anzu-chan.
《Same night in the radio recording booth》
Tumblr media
Rei: With that kind of thing, I couldn't help but make a cheap deal~♪
Kaoru: Don't make that face, please?
Rei: Didn't you make a cheap guarantee...
Kaoru: Because it doesn't mean to change the way you say it.
Rei: Hmmm, it's Kaoru-kun, the one who ordered it. What do you want me to do?
Kaoru: It would be nice if you could just shut up and listen to my confession.
Rei: That's boring. There's no point in asking me.
Anyway. Kaoru-kun is kind to accept the hero show.
Kaoru: It's not like that. In front of Anzu-chan, I just couldn't refuse. It's just irresponsible dressing.
Drama scenes can be retaken many times, but hero shows is a one-shot match, right?
I'm an inexperienced person, so I don't feel any like failing.
Rei: What are you saying. The one-shot match is the same for live performances, right?
Kaoru: I'm used to live performances... But that even not the same air.
Tumblr media
Rei: So what about the date invitation? The live broadcast that starts in a few minutes. Isn't it a one-shot game for both of them?
Kaoru: Even if you say enjoy yourself. I don't know much about heroes.
Even the fact that heroes are different in Japan and America, I didn't know until this age.
When I played the hot-blooded man, I used Moricchi as a reference. I don't know about heroes.
Rei: Fufu. In such a case, you just to be a "Vampire Shogun" ♪
Kaoru: "Vampire Shogun" is out.
Rei: What do you mean it's out? "Vampire Shogun" is a historical drama that took the world by storm, a hero to be proud of.
What a good opportunity. While I'm presenting to Kaoru-kun, let's talk about it on the radio♪
It's about to start. Kaoru-kun, are you ready?
Kaoru: Yes. Since the radio can only deliver sound, you can convey your feelings through the tone of your voice. I'll switch my head.
Rei: That's Kaoru-kun I know.
Let's do our best at the hero show too... ☆
Kaoru: Hmm, I'm trying to forget, but doesn't that mean~?
Note: Moricchi is Chiaki nickname made by Kaoru

World's Most Beautiful Mirror | Episode 6
After school, the same day
Tumblr media
Shinobu: .....
Yuuta: ...Hey, Shinobu-kun.
I already told you to stay out of this, didn't I? It's for the better.
I'm going to spit in the faces of the higher-ups in this industry. You wouldn't want to be on the side of someone like that, right?
It'll damage the signature of "Ryuseitai", an ally of justice, y'know. If you turn out to be as bad as I am, your "Ryuseitai" might despise you too.
You wouldn't like that, right? Nobody wants to play the role of the bad guy, after all.
Go home.
Shinobu: ...Ninjutsu: the art of hiding.
Tumblr media
Yuuta: What?
Shinobu: Yuuta-kun is now under my ninjutsu and will now start acting in the opposite direction.
In fact, what you're seeing right now is just my hallucination, and the real one is behind the combination over thereー
Yuuta: *hits him*
Shinobu: Ouch! N-No to violence!
Yuuta: I didn't even hit you that hard. If you were Aniki, I would've jump-kicked you.
Shinobu: Violence is not a matter of degree! Whether you hit hard or weakly is equally evil!
Wait, aah, I wasn't hit at all.
Fufufu. Stupid Yuuta-kunーyou didn't even realize that you hit me on the wrong spot? How shameful.
Yuuta: What are you getting at? Look, you're starting to piss me off like any other people, so why don't you just disappear from my sight?
You know, using your ninjutsu and stuff. One poof then get lost.
Shinobu: Ninjutsu is only used to escape from enemies.
And, Yuuta-kun is not my enemy.
Yuuta: Right now, you're using something called the art of hiding. And since you're using ninjutsu at this very moment, it means that you think of me as an enemy, right?
Shinobu: Ah... Y-You're wrong! The art of hiding is an exception. It's used only with allies. I'm telling the truth!
Yuuta: Whatever~ I know nothing about ninjas.
Shinobu: If you're interested, I can teach you a thing or two about them! Ninjas, I mean! I can talk about them with you every week, since they're basically my favorite!
Tumblr media
Yuuta: I don't want to be stuck with an Otaku's pointless and long conversations, though.
Shinobu: Ahh, he ran away! Wait, Yuuta-kun!
Fufufu. You're shallow if you think you can escape ninjas that easily...!
Yuuta: (...What the hell was that?)
(Why does he keep coming after me? Even though I said some really harsh things that would make him want to vomit from self-loathing.)
(Why do you care? Is it because we're friends? What friends?)
(What would a normal kid like him know? A normal kid who was loved by normal parents, who went to normal schools and made normal friends.)
(I don't understand...! Why was I even born as a special childーwho doesn't even understand such ordinary things?)
1 hour later
Tumblr media
Yuuta: (Fuu... I somehow got away from him.)
(Shinobu-kun, I gotta admit, I had a hard time because you were persistently chasing me, you were surprisingly fast and seemed to be good at tailing...as expected of a ninja.)
Tumblr media
(But I've also got my share of chasing! I've always played tag with Aniki since I was little, after all!)
(That one time when he did something stupid and I just got mad so I started chasing himー)
Tumblr media
(...Thanks to him, I had forgotten about all the bad stuff. Even if nothing was solved, it would have been somewhat refreshing to catch that Aniki and put him through so much pain.)
(That's how I've always healed...by sandbagging my own brother.)
(I felt satisfied in making Aniki the symbol of all evil in the world and beating him into pulp. "Yeah, I'm on the good side compared to this kid"ーthey say.)
(I'm on the side of justice, they say.)
(But. This is no good, I'll just end up feeling sorry for "Hinata-kun" in the end.)
(That's why I'm going to be the devil this time.)
(No, from the very beginning, the one who has always been evil wasー)
Tumblr media
Shinobu: Yu~uta-kun ♪
Yuuta: Hiyeaaaahhhh!?
Shinobu: Woah, what a scream you got there. Don't tell me you never noticed that I was behind you all this time?
Hmm. I'm afraid that my art of concealment is more advanced than I thought.
Yuuta: ...What do you want.
Come to think of it, I'm currently disguising myself as "Byakuya Aoi" so, how'd you know that it was me?
Shinobu: Fufun. A ninja's eyesight cannot be fooled! It's obvious at just a glance!
Yuuta: When you first met him, you were like "Who!?" and panicked, though?
Shinobu: ...Yuuta-kun, do you want some ice cream?
Yuuta: Huh? It's winter, right?
Shinobu: Ice cream in winter is still very special. Every year, new ice cream products for such customers line up in convenience stores and other places for them.
And I'm one of those people who gets excited and buys them every year.
Tumblr media
Yuuta: Hmm...
Shinobu: ...I've always wanted a friend whom I can talk to about these not-so-important things.
Yuuta: If you wanna talk about that stuff, you have "Ryuseitai", don't you?
Shinobu: We've...got a lot of problems.
We don't really stop talking about work, or the future of the unit, I'll end up having a stomachache and won't be able to eat ice cream.
Yuuta: I get you. In my case, not so much now, but before, my family, friends and colleagues...they were all Anikiーso if we get into a fight, it's gonna be really bad.
The whole world would be so dark. As if it was always night. I couldn't see a thing.
Shinobu: I know.
I want you to talk about all that, important and not-so-important things. I...want to know more about Yuuta-kun.
Yuuta: Do you meanーyou're gonna be a bad guy with me?
Shinobu: Nope. I'm still a member of "Ryuseitai" who stands alongside justice, so I can't get involved in any wrongdoing.
Yuuta: Then, this conversation is officially over~
Shinobu: I won't let it end. I'm not going to become a proper hero if I overlook evil, and I'm not a proper human being if I abandon my friends in distress.[1]
I'm just a mere coward and I don't think I can do bad things together with Yuuta-kun. I can't really sympathise because I have never thought about wanting to take revenge on someone.
Yuuta: .....
Shinobu: Even so, I might be able to help Yuuta-kun defeat his enemies in a different way. I'll use my head for that, and I'll do whatever I can to help him.
Even if Yuuta-kun doesn't want that, "I'll" still do it.[2]
That's my decision.
Yuuta: This is really selfish. Why am I always surrounded by people like you.
Maybe I...could have been selfish like you. I could have been angry at "me" for being a bad guy, for disobeying my parents, and other precious peopleー
It's not like I was forbidden for acting normal like everyone else to begin with...
Tumblr media
Shinobu: It's not like anyone was forbidden to do this or that in the first place, you know.
Yuuta: Yeah... Can I have some ice cream too?
I don't like sweets that much, but when I saw it, I wanted to try some.
Shinobu: I don't really mind, but I'm not treating you, okay? Pay for it.
Yuuta: Eeh~? Shinobu-kun, you're too cheap~!
Tumblr media
Shinobu: I've already told you many timesーI'm broke.
Yuuta: .....♪
Shinobu: .....♪
Notes:
Surprisingly, Shinobu started talking here in a more 'normal' way, without the "degozaru"s.
Shinobu finally used the first person pronoun "Boku" here, which Yuuta seemed to prefer from the past episodes.

Having just gotten out of school for the day, Haru was heading straight to Kashinoki Books to meet up with the rest of his friends at their secret base. That was until he noticed a commotion going on at the local park.
A bunch of kids seemed to be gather around on what appears to be a stage while parents were watching them from the sidelines. Becoming curious, Haru went over to get a closer look as he watched the performers on stage doing their thing. "I wonder what's going on over there."
His Buddy, Gatchmon appeared next to Haru as a hologram via his Appmon Chip, examining the live event with his magnifying glass and searched up the details.
Tumblr media
"It's a hero show! They're shown a lot in Japan as entertainment to help give children more hope in the world. Looks like today, it's performed by a group of people known as Ryuseitai. We should stay and watch them, Haru!"
"Hero show?" The others won't mind, right? Well... except for Eri probably. Although, Haru couldn't help but become intrigued by it. Maybe this can give him inspiration and confidence boost to be a better protagonist. A big smile appeared on his face as he shouted out loud to the heroes on stage.
Tumblr media
"Go get them! You can do it, guys!!" Was it embarrassing? Probably, but he was too immersed right now to realize.
Chiaki could feel sweat gather at his hairline and some of it dripped down on his face and down his neck. This was the best feeling ever, when he, Kanata and the kids gave their absolute best performing and the cheers of the little kids watching them was like pure serotonin injected straight into his veins, giving him an immense energy boost. Of course, he did his best to stay in character as MeteoRed, beating the bad guys while singing and dancing, sometimes being beat down of course because then they had to get help from the audience so everyone could triumph together.
It was what being alive was truly about.
One voice stood out to him though and he couldn't help but shoot a quick glance into the audience, spotting a green-haired boy who seemed a good deal older than your average Ryuseitai fan, and Chiaki grinned, sparing a moment to wave enthusiastically at the boy.
Tumblr media
"Chiaki, focus..." Kanata whispered under his breath in passing, but winked playfully at the boy who stood out in the crowd before slipping back into his role as MeteoBlue.
Eventually the show was over and Kanata waited patiently as Chiaki said his thanks to the audience and gave a small speech about the power of friendship and unity and how they'd come calling whenever people in need reached out to them.
"This was fun," Kanata said after the curtain calls were over and the crowd started to disperse. They should go change, but there was no hurry and shows like these always left Kanata feeling drained. He sat down on the stage, soon enough joined by Chiaki who began to fuss over him.
Tumblr media
"Maybe I should get you some water?" There was a risk that Kanata would get dizzy and maybe faint if he had exerted himself too much, after all. Chiaki definitely didn't want that!

MIRAGE - The Most Beautiful Mirror in the World 6
Author: Akira
Characters: Yuuta, Shinobu
Translator: Mika Enstars
Proofers: Bella
"(Who can I even talk to about this? My parents? God? Is there anyone who can make this right?)"
Season: Winter
Location: Back Alley in Downtown
Tumblr media
That day, after school…
Shinobu: …
Yuuta: …Look, Shinobu-kun.
I just told you. Stay out of this. It’s best for the both of us.
I’m not gonna hold back from spitting in the industry bigwig’s faces anymore. You wouldn’t want to be on my side anyways.
You might end up ruining RYUSEITAI’s reputation of being allies of justice, y’know. If you become a bad boy like me, everyone in RYUSEITAI might even start looking down on you.
You don’t want that. Who would? Nobody likes a bad kid.
Go home.
Shinobu: …Ninja art: hiding technique!
Yuuta: What?
Shinobu: Yuuta-kun has successfully fallen for my ninjitsu, and is speaking in the wrong direction!
What he doesn’t know is that he is only looking at a mirage, my real self being in the shadows of the convenience store—
Yuuta: Hiyah.
Shinobu: Oww. I-I’m against violence…
Yuuta: C’mon, I didn’t hit that hard. If you had been Aniki, I would’ve done a jump kick.
Shinobu: The degree of violence doesn’t matter, de gozaru! Hitting others is bad no matter what!
Wait, ahh, not that I’m here, or anything.
Tumblr media
Hehehe, that foolish Yuuta-kun—he’s striking in the wrong direction. All right!
Yuuta: What are you doing? Look, this is starting to really get on my nerves. Can’t you go and disappear already?
Y’know, with your oh-so-amazing ninjitsu and shit. Go poof.
Shinobu: Ninjitsu is used when you must escape from your enemies, de gozaru.
However, Yuuta-kun is no enemy of mine.
Yuuta: Aren’t you using a hiding technique right now, though? Since you’re using ninjutsu, doesn’t that mean you think of me as your enemy?
Shinobu: Ah… W-Wrong! Hidden techniques don’t count. You can use those against your allies too. Yes.
Yuuta: You’re kidding me… Guess I don’t know anything about ninjas.
Shinobu: If you’d like, I can teach you, de gozaru! About ninjas! I love them so much I could go on about them for a week straight!
Yuuta: I really don’t want to be stuck listening to your senseless, endless otaku ramblings…
Tumblr media
Shinobu: Ah, he ran away, de gozaru! Yuuta-kun, wait!
Heheheh, if you think you can escape the pursuit of a ninja, you are naive indeed~!
Tumblr media
Yuuta: (…What the hell?)
(Why is he chasing after me? Even though I said things so harsh it makes me want to throw up from self-disgust…)
(Why won’t he leave me alone? Because he’s a friend? What even is a friend?)
(Is this something someone normal would know? A normal kid who is loved by his parents, goes to school normally, and is able to make friends normally?)
(I just don’t get it…! Why was I born as an abnormal kid who can’t even understand something so normal?)
(Who can I even talk to about this? My parents? God? Is there anyone who can make this right?)
Location: Downtown
Tumblr media
One hour later…
Yuuta: (Phew… I got away, somehow.)
(Shinobu-kun’s been chasing me persistently, and it’s put me through a lot of trouble… He’s surprisingly fast and is really good at tailing others. As expected of a ninja, I guess.)
(But, I’ve got my share of chasing! I’ve been playing tag with Aniki ever since I was little!)
(Every time Aniki would do something stupid, I’d get angry and chase him—)
(And while doing so, I’d be able to forget about all the things I hate. Even if nothing would get solved, once I’d catch Aniki and punish him, I’d feel much better.)
(…I’ve been using Aniki as a punching bag for so long.)
(By turning Aniki into the embodiment of all that is bad in the world, I was able to find peace of mind by beating him into a pulp. Ahh, and I’d say I was the good kid compared to him.)
(The more righteous one.)
(But, that was sick of me, and I regret what I did to “Hinata-kun”.
(It’s me, now. I’ve become the demon.)
(No… From the beginning, the most horrible one of us was…)
Tumblr media
Shinobu: Yuuuuta-kuun! ♪
Yuuta: Hyaaahhh!?
Shinobu: Whoa, what a scream. No way, did you not notice me? I was behind you this entire time, de gozaru…
Eheh, it seems like my hidden arts are more advanced than I had thought!
Yuuta: …Seriously, what do you want?
Seriously, even though I was disguised as Aoi Byakuya, you still recognized me.
Shinobu: Hehe, you can’t deceive the eyes of a ninja! I could tell at first glance!
Yuuta: And yet the first time you ran into me like this, you panicked and said “Who!?”
Tumblr media
Shinobu: …Yuuta-kun, do you want ice cream?
Yuuta: Huh? In winter?
Shinobu: Eating ice cream in the winter is also exceptional, de gozaru! Around this time of year, people are always lining up at convenience stores for new flavors—
I get all excited every year as well!
Yuuta: Uh-huh…
Shinobu: …I’ve always wanted a friend with whom I could talk about the little things to.
Yuuta: If you wanna talk about those things, why can’t you just talk to the other kids in RYUSEITAI…
Shinobu: Because there, we have allll sorts of problems going on…
It’s always talk about things like work and the future of the unit. My stomach ends up hurting to the point I couldn’t get ice cream if I wanted, de gozaru…
Yuuta: I get that. For me, it’s not too much an issue anymore, but… Before, my friends, family, and colleagues were all Aniki. So if we got into a fight, it was the absolute worst.
The entire world would turn pitch black. When a moonless night falls, I can’t see anything.
Shinobu: Mhm!
I want you to be able to talk to me about those things, important or not, de gozaru. I want to know more about you, Yuuta-kun.
Yuuta: Does… that mean you’re going to become a bad kid with me?
Shinobu: No. I’m a part of RYUSEITAI after all, I can’t take part in anything bad.
Yuuta: Then this conversation is over.
Shinobu: Don’t say that. If one overlooks evil deeds, they’re disqualified as a hero, but if one abandons a troubled friend, they’re disqualified as a human being.
I’m a coward, so I don’t think I could get in the dirt with you, Yuuta-kun. I’ve never really wanted to take revenge on someone who made me upset, so I can’t empathize with you.
Yuuta: …
Shinobu: But even still, I might be able to at least help you in another way. To fight the enemy—the evil that’s tormenting you, Yuuta-kun. And for that reason, I’ll put my mind to it and do whatever I can!
Whether you want it or not, this is what I want to do. No, this is what I (boku) will do.
That’s what I’ve decided.
Yuuta: You really are selfish. Just like everybody else around me.
But maybe it’s alright if I’m selfish, like you and everyone else too, y’know! But when I oppose my father and other people in higher positions, I get scolded for being a bad kid…
I shouldn’t have to be the only one forbidden to do what everyone else does normally.
Shinobu: Nobody’s trying to forbid or condemn you for anything, though.
Tumblr media
Yuuta: Right… …I’ll have one of those ice creams as well.
I don’t really like sweet things, but seeing you eat it made me really want one too.
Shinobu: Sure, but it’s not on me, de gozaru. You’ll have to pay me back!
Yuuta: Jeesh~, you’re so stingy, Shinobu-kun.
Tumblr media
Shinobu: I’ve told you again and again, I’m kinda broke!
Yuuta: …♪

I am asking about your comet show opinions 👁️👁️
Okay so Comet Show was Chiaki's event that we had in Eng in likeeeeeee January? And uh. It is not good. I'm not gonna go look for my screenshots because it will make me so mad but basically Ryuseitai is under threat of being completely disbanded so they have one last live together (Suisei Halation). On the surface it sounds Fine and the first part of it was okay but like.
The ending monologue for Chiaki. Man just shut up! Shut up! You need to stop treating your juniors like kids and this should have been like High Five where Chiaki officially handed the mantel of leader off to Tetsu instead of an entire episode of Chiaki talking about how much being Ryusei Red means to him. Babygirl this is NOT the time.
Actually no let me
Tumblr media
Well I didn't take screenshots of the last half of Comet Show I Guess but Midori was soooo right for this. Chiaki I need to shove you in a locker for this. And also RST writers for !! Era are going in there too. Fuck this event specifically Chiaki's bloomed card doesnt even look good. Its even more frustrating because Chiaki knows what he needs to change but doesn't let anyone help him. Like you just need to let go sometimes my beautiful babygirl. Let Kanata catch you while you support Tetsu as the new leader and pass on the mantle. You don't even have to change colors like he can still be leader and Ryusei Black just because red is leader in every show doesn't mean you can't break away from the mold man. Explodes

Saga: Release - 13
Writer: Akira
Season: Spring
Characters: Tori, Chiaki, Hokuto, Jin
Proofreading: 310mc (JP) & Peace (ENG)
Translation: kotofucius
Tori: I… I want to become someone people can love over such a long time, too.
Tumblr media
Location: Mall 1st Floor
Time: After that… 30 minutes have passed since Rain-bows’s fansign event opened
Tori: Yeah! Thank you~ I’m really happy to see you, too! We’ll be having a performance right after this, so watch us if you can, okay? ♪
Yeah, bye-bye~!
Oh — wait, miss, you forgot something! I signed this for you, so don’t forget to take it with you, ‘kay~?
Right! Ahaha, I remembered you being a little clumsy…♪ I hope you’ll keep supporting Rain-bows and me, Himemiya Tori!
(Huff… I-It’s a lot tougher than I thought!)
(The fans won’t stop coming! I’ve been talking and writing signatures for thirty minutes non-stop! My throat and hands are killing me!)
(I thought a fansign event would be a piece of cake compared to performing, but…)
(I think I’m wasting more stamina than usual because it’s something I’m not used to, and I keep having to think up different ways to respond to each one of them.)
(Well, to be fair, I could treat them all the same, like when I'm approving documents…)
(But from the viewpoint of a fan, I know how ecstatic it feels when your idol responds to you in a special way.)
(Back when I was only a fan of fine, and went to their fansign events in secret…)
(Eichi-sama immediately recognized me as “Tori-kun of the Himemiya house” and struck up a conversation with me, and I was really touched.)
(Well, then I got so carried away that I got caught by Yuzuru who was tailing me...)
(But every single moment of it is a precious memory to me, including that part.)
(I hope this fansign event can also become a treasure for the fans who came to see me today.)
Tumblr media
Tori: (Ehehe, I really feel like an idol right now.)
(When you’re neck-deep in the DreamFest system, the audience starts to look like numbers, but… each one of them is an individual of their own.)
(All their own persons, living different lives — and they’re taking their time to see us.)
(That’s just the happiest honor I could ever have; and I don’t think I can ever think of this as a “waste of time” anymore, even in death.)
Chiaki: I see! Ahaha, so you usually accompany your kid to our hero shows?
But today, you’ve taken a side trip from shopping to see me in secret?
Thank you! No, no — of course we’d be just as happy when fans other than children are cheering us on! If that’s the case, ma’am, I’ll write autographs for the child as well!
Eh!? It’ll be awkward if they find out you went to my fansign event without telling? That’s true! What to do, then…?
Ah, hold on! I always have Ryuseitai merch with me to give to people whenever I can, so by all means, take one as a present!
Please give it to your child! Just tell them that you got my autograph as a bonus when buying this merch for them… how about that?
Eh? “Is it okay for a hero to be an accomplice to a lie”? Ah, you’ve got me, ma’am! No matter what villains I take down, I’m still nothing when facing a mother!
Tori: (Ahaha. Morisawa-senpai looks so peppy.)
(He’s making so much noise~ It’s kinda amazing how he moves around in such a narrow space and manages to not bother anybody.)
(I haven’t been able to check how the others are doing since I was so busy myself, but they’re really dealing with the fans in their own unique ways…)
(This is so fun to watch~. I think I would’ve enjoyed this even if I was here as a fan ♪)
(Mm~ I’m not sure if it’s about our achievements, or how long we’ve been active as idols...)
(Sagami-sensei’s the most popular… Next is Morisawa-senpai, with a pretty huge gap from Sensei—and tailing behind them are both me and Hidaka-senpai… I think.)
(There’s people lining up in front of each of our desks, so thankfully none of us are strikingly unpopular, but… the gap is still there anyway. It’s frustrating.)
(I’m still a nameless new face with less than a year of work record behind me, so I know I’m probably already doing really well for my current status, but...)
(I can’t help but compare myself to other people.)
(No, no! I have to stop. Jealousy is an ugly emotion. I should observe their mannerisms and learn from their good sides...)
(I’ll attract more fans and become even better at entertaining them.)
Hokuto: Mm… are you okay? My hand isn't cold, is it?
I see. That’s good. Heheh, my teammates held my hands and warmed them up for me before the event.
I’ve always had a complex about my cold hands, but they helped me.
Hmm? Ah, I’ve heard of it. People with cold hands usually have a warm heart… I’m happy that you think that way about me.
Tori: (Ahaha. Hidaka-senpai’s so unbelievably stiff. His smile looks strained too~ Maybe Trickstar isn’t used to doing fanservice?)
(But, though I doubt he’s doing it on purpose, his inexperience is actually making him look cute.)
(That feeling like you can’t leave him alone… The fans are smiling with adoration at him.)
(I’m supposed to be the one giving off that adorable, naive vibe being the baby of the group, though…)
(You’re so unfair, Hidaka-senpai. You’re always taking away what I want.)
Jin: Eh~? No, no! I’m just joining the kids' fun for the time being!
This is an old man going against his better judgment~ Even just moving around a bit is already taking the breath out of me ♪
Eh? You didn’t want to hear that sorta thing from my mouth? Sorryyy, I guess I’ve really withered!
But it’s okay — the Sagami Jin in your memories is still shining vividly, right?
If you’ll continue to treasure that version of me in your heart… that’s enough to make me overjoyed. You’ll make me the luckiest man on earth.
I’m so glad to have met you. I will never, ever forget this day, same as you.
Tori: (Whoa… That’s an old hand for you. Sagami-sensei plays it so smartly without any hint of nervousness at all.)
(He’s aware that he’s not giving off the same shine as during his prime; so he shows everything he is now, without concealing anything.)
(But he still makes sure to sound earnest at the key moments, so his fans won’t be disappointed. He whispers to their ears… and charms them, making them fall in love with him all over again.)
(Most of Sagami-sensei’s fans are of pretty good age already… but when they’re talking with him, it’s as if they’re back to being young maidens in love.)
(I… I want to become someone people can love over such a long time, too.)
(…Oops, I gotta focus. I had a minute to watch since I finished signing for everyone, but the fans are starting to queue for me again.)
(According to Sagami-sensei, the fans should have some free time while waiting for our live show to start…)
(So they might line up for us too to kill time, even if it wasn’t our signatures they came for at first.)
(I should do my best to turn them into my fans. That’s what this unit’s for, after all.)
(Even if I didn’t catch their interest at first, just by having some connection with another idol they love… they’ll start paying attention to me, too.)
(Even people who would normally get buried away can get a chance to be shined on, and then they’ll be able to shine, too. What Eichi-sama created for us… is that kind of gentle and wonderful system.)

Hi, I like making big deals out of absolutely nothing, so that's what I'm doing today too. The enstars cover song series has only been meme songs so far, and it's clearly meant to evoke more of a "huh?!" reaction than anything else, much less be taken at anything more than surface value. I had a thought when the Ra*bits and Ryuseitai Hamtaro Tottoko Uta cover was announced, though, and the MV coming out a few days ago just further fueled that thought.
Specifically, the thought that Tetora would love to do something for a kids' show, or that comes from a kids' show like this. I mean look, he's so into it!
Tumblr media
But well, that's just a smile and a wink. They're idols, of course they gotta smile and shit while performing. What really got me after this, though, was the little bit at the end of the song. Again, look at how into the whole thing he is!! I think it's fucking adorable how he's the only one swaying from side to side so much and all
Tumblr media
And like I said, that just confirmed my thought that Tetora would love doing something like this, he'd love doing something that'd make kids happy, without being embarrassed about it at all.
Not only is Tetora naturally a caring guy, but he also grew up really lonely. We know from several stories that he's an only child who was often home alone because his family isn't well-off, and his parents had to work long hours to make ends meet. We also know from Niki's third idol story that he used to get convenience store bentos and eat them all alone... but what kept him from feeling alone during that was watching Niki's cooking show (which was also aimed at a younger audience). He even goes as far as to say that watching the show saved him.
... So Tetora knows better than anyone how important it can be for kids to have things like that to look up to, and in some cases, to keep them company or be like "friends" to them. For that reason, I don't think he'd be embarrassed about having to put on hamster ears and act all cutesy at all. If anything, he'd be more than happy if he could be to some other kid out there what Niki was to him, and yes I'm crying over that idea
In conclusion: I'm actually so glad Tetora got to be part of this cover and I like overanalyzing things
