#the 12 days of ayumu

[samlee2224]

Can we hear about your milgram oc 🥺🥺

( no pressure ofc )

I have 12 Milgram OCs! But now there are only 8 ( or 9 ? ) people who have stories. I'll introduce them to you!!↓

(I use Translate app and my little abilities, hope you can read and understand it.)

In Samleegram, We have 2 prison guards and 10 prisoners

Prison Guards

[000]

Name : Es (エス)

CV : Sakamoto Maaya (坂本 真綾)

Gender : Unknown

Age : 15

Birthday : Unknown

Height : 153 cm.

Bloodtype : Unknown

Image color : #8EC6BB (Monte Carlo)

Es bright and cheerful, They is close to almost every prisoner. They always make free time to talk with prisoners. But no one knew that they was secretly recording prisoners' information all the time.

They patrolled at night every day. Many people think it's because they works hard. But actually they was just trying to find a way out of here.

Es often gets teased by Ar for being short. So they asks Jackalope for a new pair of shoes. That makes them 160 cm tall. which is higher than Ar. LOL

((Es rarely wears a hat because it makes seeing difficult.😢 Es always cooks for everyone to eat, sometimes some prisoners come to help them. (but Ar doesn't help.)))

__________

[000]

Name : Ar (アル)

CV : Uchiyama Yumi (内山 夕実)

Gender : Unknown

Age : 15

Birthday : Unknown

Height : 159 cm.

Bloodtype : Unknown

Image color : #8EB8C6 (Polo Blue)

In fact, Ar was the assistant prison guard. Its main duty is to interrogate prisoners. They was verbally violent during the interrogation. In this prison, there was hardly anyone to like them. (← It should be like that)

Ar is very foul-mouthed and has a temper. (💀) Do you see that whistle? They usually blow it when prisoners don't behave as they please. ( Why does it sound cute..? )

((Ar doesn't often wear hats either. But it's because he's just lazy. Sometimes Ar wears Es’s hat because Ar can't find their own.))

__________

Prisoners

[021]

Name : Kinoshita Haru (木下 晴)

CV : Kitamura Eri (喜多村 英梨)

Gender : Female

Age : 22

Birthday : January 6

Height : 173 cm.

Bloodtype : A

Image color : #F59795 (Wewak)

Haru hardly speaks to anyone. She usually communicates by writing on the board. She also isn't good at facial expressions, which makes some people think she's strange.

Haru often smokes with Masato (024) regularly. And She seem to be trying to approach Akihiko (26) for unknown reasons.

She used to like to sing and play music, she used to set up a band with a close friend before. But why did she stop doing it? Hmmm? you'll have to wait until this part of the story is revealed.✌️

((I intend to design Haru to look like a man. Due to her past story But she is a woman. However You can use the anypronoun with her that she/her he/him or they/them. She doesn't seriously about this.))

__________

[022]

Name : Murata Kei (村田 軽 )

CV : Murata Ayumu (村瀬 歩)

Gender : Male

Age : 14

Birthday : August 19

Height : 154 cm.

Bloodtype : AB

Image color : #BCCCD1 (Link Water)

Kei is the youngest prisoner. He has dark circles under his eyes that are clearly visible. It's because he almost didn't sleep. Even though he went to sleep, he had a nightmare anyway, so he thought it was better to take that time to study.

He often said that he was not guilty , Never kill people , Milgram caught him wrong. And he wanted to leave here very much. 'My father will definitely find me.' He always said that.

Kei looks particularly close to Hinata(023), maybe because of his similar age, he often follows her like a chick(?) Everyone in prison always sees them next to each other.

((He used to ask for cosmetics from Es, so Es thought that in fact, he might love beauty?))

__________

[023]

Name : Tsugiyama Hinata (杉山 日向)

CV : Hanazawa Kana (花澤 香菜)

Gender : Female

Age : 15

Birthday : March 23

Height : 148 cm.

Bloodtype : A

Image color : #F4CFC5 (Coral Candy)

Hinata is a friendly person and always talks to others. Everyone sees her cheerful and looks polite all the time. But once in a while she accidentally slipped out of a rude word. Make everyone shock…

She bandaged her arms all the time. Ritsu (028) volunteered to change the bandage for her often, but she often refused him and did it on her own. She didn't want anyone to see the that wound.

Hinata didn't have the attitude of wanting to leave milgram at all. Hinata thought that this place was much more comfortable than her house. If not sticking to the vote that she didn't like it.

((Hinata doesn't like the uniform that Milgram provides. Because it makes everyone see the bandage clearly.💢))

__________

[024]

Name : Kimura Masato (木村 正人)

CV : Hirata Hiroki (平田 広明)

Gender : Male

Age : 43

Birthday : February 20

Height : 187 cm.

Bloodtype : O

Image color : #78BC8E (Bay Leaf)

He is the oldest person in milgram. He lived a sluggish life as if he had completely lost faith in this world. Sometimes he acted like a father of children in prison.👴

Masato talks to Ritsu(028) most often. discussing life problems, adult edition (sounds depressing). He often smokes with Haru(021) on a regular basis, even if the other party lets him talk to a single swim.

Masato didn't pay much attention to milgram, But if he could choose, he wanted to get out of here, Because he still didn't complete his duty.

((He thinks it's not bad to have free cigarettes.))

__________

[026]

Name : Matsui Akihiko (松井 昭彦)

CV : Taniyama Kishou (谷山 紀章)

Gender : Male

Age : 18

Birthday : April 1

Height : 169 cm.

Bloodtype : A

Image color : #FFBF65 (Rajah)

I haven't made much of his story yet. But as you can see, He's not very friendly.

Akihiko often quarrels with Ar regularly (He actually quarrels with everyone but.. uh… with Ar the most.)

__________

[028]

Name : Itsuki Ritsu (樹 律)

CV : Furukawa Makoto (古川 慎)

Gender : Male

Age : 35

Birthday : June 30

Height : 182 cm.

Bloodtype : B

Image color : #3359BF (Cerulean Blue)

Please marry m- NO, I mean, Ritsu always takes care of others, maybe because he's a doctor, so he's trusted by everyone.

He is very close to Masato(024), probably because Masato is the male of his age closest to himself.

((Look at his smile ^^ 🥺))

__________

[030]

Name : Higuchi Ryota (樋口 僚太)

CV : Uchida Yuma (内田 雄馬)

Gender : Male

Age : 20

Birthday : October 12

Height : 174 cm.

Bloodtype : O

Image color : #C1D48C (Deco)

Ryota doesn't have any other information yet, I'll update it later!

Nijichizu Walking Guide - MEMORIES WITH NIJIGAKU MEMBERS

(This article was published in Love Live! Days June 2025 Issue, released April 30, 2025)

Game Release Commemoration

Don't get lost in the story of you and the Nijigaku members! A special navigational feature to a happy future

Nijichizu Walking Guide

This article is packed with the charm of the visuals and story of Nijchizu, which has finally been released, as well as exclusive messages from the cast and a newly-written talk. Please enjoy it along with the game!

What is Nijigasaki High School Idol Club: TOKIMEKI Roadmap to Future (Nijichizu)?

The School Idol Club is in turmoil! The 12 members think of various ways to restore your memory….

You suddenly have amnesia! A story of past memories and the search for a future beyond the present

Nijichizu is a visual novel about the daily lives of you, a supporting member of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, and the other members of the club. You suddenly lose your memories since you first encountered school idols, and while living out your high school life with the members, you try to find out the cause of your amnesia. Deepen your bond with the members by interacting with them on weekdays and weekends, and after 4 weeks, your route will change depending on your existing relationships with them. A key feature of the game is that it partly reflects the story of Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS (SIFAS), which was available until 2023, in the form of your past memories. You'll get deeply emotionally invested as you retrace the stories that you and the members have accumulated!

4 Weeks with the Nijigaku Members

Weekday

Twice a day, you can choose a destination on the map and enjoy conversations with the members there. You'll also encounter characters other than the members.

Day Off

A story will unfold on the weekend featuring you and all of the members. You'll enjoy outings, training camps, and even a confrontation between sentai heroines and the forces of evil!?

Check Out Unlocked Stories in the Extras!

You can view stories that have been unlocked by fulfilling conditions in the main story by selecting “Extras” on the title screen.

Member events are stories that take place after your memory loss, while bond episodes are recollections of the past.

MEMORIES WITH NIJIGAKU MEMBERS

Ayumu Uehara

Story Spotlight

Memories Because of Childhood Friendship

In response to your behavior and statements, Ayumu tells you a variety of similar anecdotes from your past. It gives you a sense of the depth of your bond.

Aguri Onishi (Ayumu Uehara)

Are you playing Nijchizu right now? Your childhood friend Ayumu-chan is waiting for you, you know! During the recording, I was able to relive my memories of working hard like this for SIFAS! Not only will it reaffirm the bond between you and Ayumu-chan, but it'll also deepen it even more than before! Please nurture your bond with her a lot through Nijchizu!

Kasumi Nakasu

Story Spotlight

Adorable Wuv Attack

Kasumi's fondness for you for rebuilding the club is clear. Pay attention to the endearing way she overexaggerates to win your affections and her efforts to recover your memories.

Mayu Sagara (Kasumi Nakasu)

Congratulations on the release of Nijchizu! This time, the main character has amnesia! For those who played SIFAS, there are some nostalgic moments and little references to enjoy, while new players can experience it with a fresh perspective! You'll discover new aspects of each member, including your favorites, and fall in love with Nijigasaki even more! Please enjoy all the members' routes♡ I'm also really looking forward to it!

Shizuku Osaka

Story Spotlight

Her Glimmering Acting Ability Abounds

As expected of someone aiming to become a top actress, Shizuku offers praiseworthy performances. She's so good that there are times when the difference in intensity between hers and that of the other members is astonishing.

Kaori Maeda (Shizuku Osaka)

Finally, congratulations on the release of Nijchizu!! I'm so glad to meet you in-game again in a new form! As “you” start from a point where you have no memories, I'm certain you're looking forward to seeing how the story will unfold. Shizuku-chan's lines are also really lovely, so I hope you'll enjoy her story too! Have fun!

Karin Asaka

Story Spotlight

The Sexy Sister's Secret Side!?

Karin has a reputation for being cool and sexy, but she also displays a lot of cute aspects, such as being surprisingly competitive and having a lack of sense of direction.

Miyu Kubota (Karin Asaka)

It's finally out! I've been active in various capacities as Nijigasaki, but I still felt nostalgia for this art style and type of gameplay screen. I haven't played it yet myself, so once I get it, I'm going to enjoy Karin-chan's route as one of you! Let's have fun together!

Ai Miyashita

Story Spotlight

Love and Happy Words

Since Ai has a spirit of enjoyment and entertainment in everything she does, she's full of positive words. If you try saying some out loud, you too may become happy.

Natsumi Murakami (Ai Miyashita)

Nijchizu is now on sale! Did you get it yeeeet?? I thought some of the scenes were pretty sweet when I recorded them, so I'm looking forward to everyone playing it through to the end! I bet that once you complete the game, you'll want to replay it, so please play it a lot!★

Kanata Konoe

Story Spotlight

To Nap or Not to Nap

Kanata has the image of being an opportunistic sleeper, but she's equally adept at lulling you to sleep on her lap. You can't resist its magic… How could you?

Akari Kito (Kanata Konoe)

As Nijichizu has just been released, I can say that there were so many delightful moments that made me smile while recording them! Please enjoy to your heart's content the wonderful time with Kanata and the members of Nijigasaki that you can only experience in Nijichizu!

Setsuna Yuki

Story Spotlight

Passion for Everyone's and Her Own Love

Setsuna works to spread her love to everyone. You can feel her passion in every word. You can also feel her gratitude to you for rekindling her fire and supporting her.

Coco Hayashi (Setsuna Yuki)

I remember how truly happy I was when I heard that the journey you and Nijigaku have taken together would become a Nintendo Switch game. Thinking of you, the player, I tried to express Setsuna's coolness, cuteness, strength, and weakness in the recording. I hope that your “love” for Setsuna and Nana will grow even bigger throughout Nijchizu.

Emma Verde

Story Spotlight

The Ultimate Relaxation Space♥

Plenty of time is provided for you to be soothed by the kind and devoted Emma. It seems that there are other members besides you, such as Karin, who surrender themselves to the healing.

Maria Sashide (Emma Verde)

Have you been playing Nijchizu!? There are 12 highly unique members, but I hope you'll also interact with Emma-chan a lot to deepen your bond! You'd better! Your choices determine what kind of future awaits you! Please enjoy a wonderful school life full of thrills while remembering the stories from SIFAS!

Rina Tennoji

Story Spotlight

Truly the Angelic Genius Tennoji!

Rina's knowledge of science is exceptional, and she demonstrates her tech prowess to the fullest. Could your amnesia be solved with technology!?

Chiemi Tanaka (Rina Tennoji)

Finally, Nijchizu has been released! I'm sure that playing it will bring back many memories for you. During the recording, I also remembered the many stories from SIFAS, which made me nostalgic and filled me with gratitude that Nijigasaki has been loved for such a long time. I hope you'll continue to make lots of new memories and keep on being thrilled with Nijichizu!

Shioriko Mifune

Story Spotlight

Serious yet Genuine

While Shioriko's earnestness shines in her appreciation for you and willingness to help you overcome your amnesia, her authentic appearance with her peers is also striking. Enjoy the contrast!

Moeka Koizumi (Shioriko Mifune)

TOKIMEKI Roadmap to Future has been released, and I can't wait for you guys to play it! When the game's story was revealed, I assume you were surprised to find that your memories had disappeared…. We're bringing lots of thrills just for you, so please take in all of them, okay? Be sure to enjoy everything it has to offer!!!

Mia Taylor

Story Spotlight

A Strong-minded Attitude, but What's in Her Heart?

Mia is just as attentive and helpful as usual despite your amnesia. Even though she appears to be fine, you can sense that she's still insecure.

Shu Uchida (Mia Taylor)

Nijichizu is finally on sale! I hope you'll take note of Mia-chan's cute inability to be honest, her youthful side, and of course, her struggle to bring back your memories. During the recording, my heart was pounding the whole time because of how much Mia-chan had grown — more than ever before! Please enjoy the world of Nijigasaki to the fullest while looking forward to the other members' routes. May your memories return safely!

Lanzhu Zhong

Story Spotlight

Powered by Meat!

Lanzhu, who's notable for her catchphrases sprinkled throughout her speech, is a huge meat lover. It's no doubt the source of her vitality.

Akina Homoto (Lanzhu Zhong)

At last, Nijichizu is out! I'm so happy to be able to bring you a new story with Lanzhu-chan and the gang! You have “amnesia,” so both those who have and haven't played SIFAS can enjoy it. What's more, the bond episodes from SIFAS have also been re-recorded for your viewing pleasure! There's a ton of content (lol). You can also see everyone in beautiful 3D with a new song. There are so many highlights! I'm really looking forward to playing it too!!

Thank you all!

With this, Shisuta's birthday event is over. Like Luis, I decided to extend her birthday an extra day, due to me wanting to make sure everything was prepared for the 1st Round of Collab Event today. I saw all of the gifts in my inbox on yesterday, but I decided to wait until today to finally answer all of them. Thank you all who sent her a gift, by the way.

Speaking of the Collab, I'd also like to send a special thank you to everyone involved who sent their songs/videos in, or asked for my assistance in helping them find a song. As you all probably already know, the polls are up and running and will continue to be open until Monday, November 4th at 11:59:59 P.M. By that time, the polls will be closed, and I will reveal the winning teams of the first round the next day at 12:00 P.M., along with the new themes for the next round.

I think that's pretty much everything I needed to say. Again, I thank everyone for helping to make this Collab great, and I thank all those who took time to send Shisuta something. I hope you show Zakari the same love next month in December. His birthday will be the last of my OC's birthdays for the year. Until next time.

-

Shisuta was sitting down in her chair in her living room, a soft smile on her face as she was reading the novel she had been reading when Ayumu had visited her. Speaking of Ayumu, a cup of tea, which was highly recommended by his mother, was on an end table beside her, which she picked up and took a sip of before placing it back down. She then looked up at the camera.

"Today, like all days, was a day of blessings and happiness. Not to say I don't enjoy all of my birthdays, but... I think this one really stuck out to me the most. ...For obvious reasons."

At her words, Shisuta's cheeks turned a shade of pink as she thought back to Ayumu's visit.

"...Yes, today was truly a blessing. And I'm over-so thankful for it. Thank you all."

Standing from her seat, she gave the screen a bow, before walking off it. As she passed by, a newly taken picture of both the Catholic nun and a certain paramedic could be seen hanging on a wall, radiant smiles on both of their faces...

Honeymoon Vol. 14 Translation

Listen to the audio here!

Ayumu Kaidou (海棠歩, Kaidou Ayumu)

Voiced by: Nobuhiko Okamoto

Age: Early 20s

Job: Publishing Employee

Country: Okinawa

For the translation, view below. Note that it isn’t 100% accurate.

🐠 Track 1: Prologue

Did I make it in time?

It's not 12 o'clock yet, is it?

*nervously* Thank goodness...

When I heard that the train was delayed, I really didn't feel alive.

It's not an exaggeration. In the first place, I was supposed to have today and tomorrow off, but I was rushed to support the autograph session and left you alone for your birthday.

I know. I guess they say that I'm working hard is the best gift of all.

It seems that I'm more suited to go around bookstores by myself.

But it's because of you that I've come to feel that way.

He told me that even if I wasn't an editor, I could deliver this emotion.

That's why I'm here now.

Besides, wiping the butt of juniors was also a good job, and he didn't catch a cold because he liked it.

But today was going to be a bad day! What's more, it's Kyoto, it's a bullet train, and when I came back to Tokyo, the train stopped because of an accident.

I couldn't help it, so I ran to the back door of the station and caught a taxi, and when I told the driver about the situation, he took advantage of the loophole and sent me off.

Oh? Just go as it is?

It's my lover's birthday, but I left her alone. He was stubborn and said she wasn't lonely, but he definitely thinks she's crying alone!

It would be sloppy.

It's late, but happy birthday!

*kiss*

For being born and for loving me, I thank you for that.

It's too early to cry, I haven't given you my present.

This is it.

Not many.

It can't be helped, I'm here.

On the left, lend me.

Okay, it fits perfectly.

breathes in, breathes out

I like you, I love you.

Will you please marry me!

It's ok?

Really?!

Good!

*playfully laughs*

My heart is pounding

Don't make a surprised face, I'm nervous too.

After all, the big event of life is 2 days

I thought that if you didn't stay by my side from now on, there would be no point in living.

It's obvious. Why don't you propose?

*kiss*

I'll definitely make you happy.

🐠 Track 2: The First Day at the Churaumi Aquarium

It’s pretty crowded even though it’s a weekday

Uh? Yeah! The breeze feels great and it feels like we’re in Okinawa!

I know it’s a little late for our honeymoon, but we have a week to make up for it

Enjoy the bus stop to our heart’s content!

Well then, let’s start with… Oh!

A whale shark monument!

What? Don’t laugh! I know what you’re saying, but the aquarium is a recommended photo spot

Oh! That’s why, I’m not talking about whale shark tension crap

No pun intended, no monument

Shut up! With sharks and orcas, men are romantic

Look, I’ll take a picture here. So don’t be so mean and just stand next to me

*Timeskip to the aquarium*

Woah! Amazing! The aquarium is insanely huge!

Apparently the whale sharks, manta rays and thrush sharks are swimming about

Only the largest one has a name

The name is Jinta

Just like that!

*laughs*

What?

They called him “Jinta Kun” in a friendly manner, but you don’t call me by my name very often

It’s too late, people still call me Kaidou kun, even though you’re now Kaidou yourself

Wait, are you being shy or do you have children?

Well me too. It’s funny to see your reaction like that, from the scene

Don’t worry, just get used to it little by little, after all we’ll be together forever after all

There’s a lot of people near the tank, so hold on tight

Woah~ Why is it that the current making the pufferfish look like it’s moving in that direction? Isn’t that just how it is?

This is good

Wha- Uh?! Don’t change this now and blush l! You’re embarrassing me too!

*laughs*

What are we doing? Trying to go back to when we first started dating?

I mean, I see

That’s right, just because we got married doesn’t mean everything suddenly changes

I think it’s best not to rush and just get used to it little by little

So I think it’s not a bad idea to enjoy the newlywed feeling

Don’t laugh again!

*laughs again*

It’s okay. My hair just got a little fluffier

Don’t worry

You’re always cute

What do you mean, they’re too busy with the tank to look at us?

Yes, yes, I’ll be more careful from now on

Correct, once we leave the aquarium, I don’t know though

🐠 Track 3: Second Day at the Blue Cave

Is that the blue cave?

Hey come over here too

You heard our guide, we can use these life jackets as floats to get into the cave

Snorkeling is only for underwater observation and the cave is tunneled, so you can always surface anytime

You’re still on guard, it’ll be fine

They don’t dive that deep. Apparently the deepest part at the entrance is only about 6m and the deepest part at the back is about 3m

I had to check it out so that someone wouldn’t get scared

It’s absolutely beautiful and I want to see it with you

If you hold my hand, you won’t be scared

Yeah, leave it to me

Yes! We’re coming!

Well then, shall we go?

Amazing! The seawater really shines blue

Plus the water is so clear, you can even see the fish swimming

I’m glad you came

The guidebook has a lot of pictures on this place

I wanted to show you this mystical view for sure

That face of yours is foul

It’s nothing!

Hey, don’t move

*attempts to kiss you*

Oh yeah, I’m wearing a mask

That’s it, the rest is up to you

*laughs* You’re too surprised

You laugh so adorably, I can’t help it

If you thrash about the fish will swim away

Now that your tension has been relieved, let’s have fun in the ocean again

Well then, let’s go! One, two!

Sorry, the vending machine near me was just refilling

Don’t be so fascinated by the view that you’ll spill it

*sipping his drink*

Ha… where to go?

I heard from someone I was talking to that you can see humpback whales from the observation deck here, but apparently you can only see from February to March

It’d be nice to come back for that season next time

Tomorrow I’ll definitely have muscle pain

I got to feed the fish, I got to watch you get more excited than ever, and a little muscle pain is a small price to pay

Oh, me too? No, no I can’t compete with your excitement!

I guess, but *yawns*

I was probably pretty good, too. I guess

I got it, don’t burrow my knee

Okay, just a little bit

I was so excited last night that I couldn’t sleep

What? It just shows how much I haven’t lost my boyish mind. Damn it!

As a laughing bus, wake me up in 10 minutes

*mumbling*

No

On the contrary, I felt more awake

Ah damn it, I guess you shouldn’t do anything you don’t know how to do

Wait, you want me to play? I don’t know if I should ring it on a regular basis

I’m your interpreter, so I’ll be practicing kneeling starting tonight

Don’t worry, I’ll lend you my lap too

*kiss*

Our life rhythms are so different that I’ve never even had the chance to rest my head on your lap, so I’m determined to be very affectionate with her during this trip

You know, I can spoil you even more now

What do you want me to do? Think about it

🐠 Track 4: Third Day at Shuri Castle

Let’s see, the red thing is Shureimon, and after passing through it and visiting the stone gate, you will arrive at the main hall of Shuri Castle

There are also singing stones around there. I heard a song about a place of worship in the progression of the Ryukyu Kingdom

What? Is that a rental costume? The hat with the red flowers on it? Hanagasa right? That’s what they’re dancing in.

Are you curious? Well, why don’t you take a picture as a souvenir?

I’d like to go to places beyond the Ryukyu Islands, but the pictures just don’t do it for me

Come to think of it, the only time we ever took a real picture together was at our wedding

It can’t be helped, everyone has at least one thing they’re not good at

That’s not what I meant when I said yesterday that I would spoil you more…

Yes! Intersect in structure!

How can I refuse a face of such expectation? Damn it! Why is my wife so cute?

Are you done changing?

Wow, beautiful

Oh, look out!

Are you okay?

You’re really making me nervous

Thank goodness you’re okay

Hm? A photograph? Ah!

Oh, sorry to keep you waiting! I’ll have it ready in a minute!

*whispers* come on, let’s go

It’s okay, just hold my hand properly. Even a short distance makes me worried. If I look at you for a moment, you’ll be in danger and nearly fall, I really can’t take my eyes off you

Is this area okay? Hey, what are you leaving for?

Come here more

Don’t worry about it, it’s not like we’re making out to show the gallery. It’s a memorial

I won’t get any closer than this, so just look at the camera! Look, smile, smile! 3, 2, 1!

*camera shoots*

I think it came out pretty well!

I might as well take a picture once in a while from now on, I’ll take photos more often than before

If you tell me first that you don’t want to be surprised, I’ll kiss you and take you

I’m just kidding, but your embarrassed face is too cute, I want to take a picture of it!

Next time we’re alone, let’s take lots of pictures of us making out

🐠 Track 5: Fourth Day at Kokusai Street

We’re going to Ishigaki Island tomorrow, so I’d rather have less luggage. We’ll buy some souvenirs and send them home firs

Apparently about 70% of Kokusai Street consists of souvenir shops, so you can get almost everything you need here

Plus, you can enjoy eating your way around!

Sightseeing is great, but eating delicious food is one of the best parts of traveling, right? Sata Andagi, right? Okinawa Soba and Ice cream? I heard there’s a good ice cream shop nearby, but it’s a little off the beaten path of Kokusai Street. What should we do?

I thought you’d say that! Let’s go, this way!

Here you go, don’t drop it. I wonder if it really should have been mango, since we had bitter melon.

No, for me who likes citrus fruits, it would be Shiikuwasha (Okinawa lime)

Delicious? That’s great, then I’ll do it too!

It’s delicious but it’s very sour

It’s true, you should try some too

It’s okay, no one’s watching now, right?

Here, Ah-

It’s sour, but delicious!

Huh, no? I’m not? I didn’t know that my words would come back to me… Got it? Ah~

For a while please don’t look at me

My face is red, that tells you about the heat doesn’t it? Yeah! No, it’s hot as hell today!

*proceeds to gobble up his ice cream*

Cold!

Can you afford to laugh at people? The ice cream is quickly melting…

Oh, it’s dripping! *licks*

What’s wrong? What’s the matter? I was just helping you eat

And while I was saying that, you got it on your finger too

Let’s just take this for now, and we’ll wash it later

*laughs* There’s no way I’m getting left out

*whispers* Thank you for the meal

Well then, shall we go back to Kokusai Street?

Oh, it’s mealtime and there’s a lot more people around, so hold my hand so we don’t get separated- Huh, what?

She hasn’t been drinking since I told her, she went to wash her hands or something?

Should I just call her?

*phone ringing*

She’s not answering…

Damn it! Where did she go?

Calm down me, she’s the one who felt more anxious, so she went back the way she came…

Huh, that back view…

Thank goodness, there you are!

I was worried because you suddenly disappeared

And the liquor store isn’t even that strong, so why?

The person who called out to you was a guy?

You got picked up idiot! Let’s go!

No, not again!

Huh? Me?

So you were picking out the alcohol for me?

But it would’ve been nice if you said something to me before you left

Huh? Were you called?

My bad…

I’m sorry, can you forgive me?

Thank you

*kiss*

Should we go to that store again?

You’re gonna get me drunk, I’m looking forward to it

🐠 Track 6: The Fifth Day at Ishigaki Island (Part 1)

I was told that if I go to Ishigaki Island, I should see Kabira Bay, but to be

This is the design

That’s amazing!

They say it’s been selected as one of the 100 series in Japan, but it’s unfortunately banned

Huh, why am I wearing a swimsuit? Because I personally wanted to see it

I’m joking! That’s the half

Therefore, it’s now going to be skeletonized

Is this your first time? The bottom of the canoe is made of glass, so you can see into the ocean

Don’t worry, it’s for two people

So could you help me push the canoe?

I’ll hold it back, so you get in first

Can you get to the front?

Oh that’s good, that’s good. Just sit down and face me like that

Are you okay? I’ll be riding next time, so hold on tight

Shall we leave then? Don’t get to excited and fall off

If you get a little more oriented, you’ll see some coral reefs

That’s right, there’s no tropical water to swim in there

Well, two people rowing together will get there quicker than one.

Can you knock the oar over?

Idiot! Don’t force me to turn it!

You’ll hurt your arm that way. The trick is to shift your weight when you row the oar

Ah, it’s easier to understand if I actually do it and show you. Can you give me this one?

Oh, slowly, slowly

Just like that, between my legs

Ah well done!

Well then, let’s go home

First, hold the oar so that the tip is perpendicular to the water. Then lean forward and push it back evenly

Oh yeah, that’s it. Not bad, right?

You didn’t have to wave your arms around to move forward properly

*kiss*

So, why is your neck red? Oh your ears are red too

This is a problem, I’m so worried that I can’t put the oar down

Me? Look, I was born a man, so there’s no need to reiterate that

No, no, no I’m not embarrassed

Don’t look at me! So that, the canoe would be facing away from me!

That’s not cool!

You’re always laughing too

*kiss*

You’ve known for a long time that I’m a man

If you learn from this, don’t get too agitated

*kiss*

🐠 Track 7: The Sixth Day at Ishigaki Island (Part 2)

I got sunburned again today. As you said, I was right to bring my parka. If I hadn’t, I might have been burned on the canoe. After a short break, we’ll have dinner…

I… Crap! I think I forgot something!

No, it’s fine, it’s my own, so I’ll go by myself. Can you get a massage while I wait for you? I’m sure there’s a spa here too

Sorry to leave you alone, I’ll be off!

Wow, it’s going to be hot again today

You look so refreshed, that aromatherapy massage you had yesterday, it seems to have worked

Huh, if it’s that good, I might take it too

But, I’d rather have you massage me anyway

Of course I’d do it to you as well, all over your body until I’m done yesterday

I know! I’m just kidding!

You said you wanted to go to the glass workshop right? They’ll ship the works you make to you later

Since we’re here, let’s make a pair of glasses. And after that…

We’re here!

Good job! This is the tip of Ishigaki Island: Uganzaki!

Some of the signs say “Oganzaki” but the locals refer to it as “Uganzaki”

The sunset seen from the lighthouse is said to be one of the best spots on Ishigaki Island, so be sure to enjoy it to the fullest

Ah, don’t look at me! You’re not looking at the sunset

Just listen to me while watching the sunset

It was yesterday, but when I said I forgot something, I actually lied

I went to the glass workshop today and they were making this necklace

I tired to capture the ocean and sunset of Okinawa

I don’t take many photos with you, and I can’t do what you asked me yesterday, but I’d like to bring something that will be a memento of the trip

It was made by an amateur, so if you don’t like it-

I see, that’s good

I though to myself that I was doing something that was out of character for me, but a honeymoon is a one time thing, so if I get embarrassed now, there’s no point

Sh-shut up! I’m blushing, I know! That’s why I told you to come here!

*kiss*

From now on, please keep smiling next to me like that. I love you

🐠 Track 8: Night of the Sixth Day

I’m done cleaning up the bathtub

You’re welcome! The hibiscus is huge though, so it wasn’t that hard

I wonder what they’d do with a rose bath? *laughs*

Uh, what about you? You almost done packing?

There’s no need to rush, we’ll check out in the afternoon

We’re already leaving tomorrow

Well, when it’s this cozy, you don’t want to go home

And I’ve never been able to spend so much time with you before

The seat next to me is empty

We can pack up tomorrow morning. Let’s just take a break on the sofa

Ah~ It’s soothing

You never say you miss me or that it’s hard for you when I’m away from home a lot for work

I’m really grateful for that, but to be honest, it makes me a little nervous

Like, are you okay without me or do you not want to be either me? I’m thinking about this and that

But during this trip, I realized that you miss me when I’m not around, and that when you see me off with a smile and tell me everything is okay, both of those things are true

Huh, is that kind of wrong?

It’s not that she’s okay without me, but that she’s trying to be okay without me

Hey, do you know the meaning of the hibiscus flower?

Every day, a new flower blooms, so there’s always something new and beautiful, something elegant, something brave

Why, I saw it on the card earlier

Look, it was on the bath towel, wasn’t it?

There’s a lot to be said for the language of flowers

By the way, it also said “You believe”

Seeing that made me think that I should have more faith in your strength so that you would believe in me and wait for me

*kiss*

And you’ll have to depend on me more. Okay?

What’s your answer?

Well then, you’d better spoil me quick

It’s your fault for smelling nice after a bath, even though you might be greedy

*kissing*

It’s getting in the way

What is it this time?

You don’t want to do it on the sofa?

I’ll carry you, so hold on tight

Now then

Well then, this time I guess I’ll be the one to spoil you

It shouldn’t be that difficult. Where do you want me to kiss you? What do you want me to do?

Just tell me honestly, I’ll make it all come true

If you don’t sleep, you’ll be put on hold forever

*laughs*

I don’t know why, but I feel like I’m being mean to you

So what do you want?

Where do you want me to kiss you?

Hey, time’s up! If you can’t choose, it can’t be helped, it’s a full body course

*kiss*

Let me love all of you

*kissing*

🐠 Track 9: Epilogue

*alarm rings*

Crap!

9 o clock?! Seriously, we’re totally late

Did you wake up?

*kiss*

Good morning

Don’t be mean, it’s 9 o’clock! It’s a job decision

Huh? 9 AM?

Oh I see! I applied before the trip because I knew I would never be able to get up

What? Well, then you can still take it easy

I can’t hear the waves so it feels a bit strange

We’re really back home

Well, where do you want to go next? You’ve been to the south, so maybe Hokkaido?

Ah, it doesn’t have to be domestic

To be honest, I’m fine with it as long as I can be with you

*kisses*

Breakfast can wait, I want you

You say silence is emperor

I’m so happy *kisses*

Together forever

Izak looked down at his watch. 2:12 a.m. Despite it being the next day since the party started, the crowd didn't look like it was slowing down much. Champagne and other drinks had been offered steadily by passing waiters since 10 p.m., but Izak had held back on drinking his fill of beer or whisky. His family was somewhere in the crowd, with Erik magically appearing for the event as well. He didn't want them to know about his egregious habits with alcohol, so he chose to take regular bumps of cocaine in the bathroom instead. Though, he wasn't sure how in control he felt, and he knew there was no way his pupils weren't blown.

However, he kept his distance, skirting around his family and only speaking to them if they were near. Luckily for him, they probably thought he was being his gregarious self, a young buck with affable vitality. He found himself talking to anyone who would listen, and even if anyone wasn't he was still chatting away as if he were the star in the room.

Soon, he found himself next to a familiar face, one that he had run across in the celebrity scene but never had the chance to have a full conversation. At least, for what he could remember. It was hard to keep facts straight after playing with the devil's snow. "Hello, you," he practically sang. "You're lookin' pretty lonely over here by yourself. Do you want some company?"

Moto3: Holgado dominates Day 1

Daniel Holgado (Red Bull KTM Tech3) ended Day 1 of the Gran Premio Motul de la Comunitat Valenciana fastest after his 1:38.706 saw him top the timesheets in Practice 2. Deniz Öncü (Red Bull KTM Ajo) got the closest to the Spaniard's time despite bringing out the red flags with a mid-session high side. The Turk was taken to the medical centre for a check-up and will be reviewed before Practice 3 in the morning, but his time stood strong as he remained the only rider to join Holgado in the 1:38 club in 2nd place. Joel Kelso (CFMoto Racing PrüstelGP) finished the day in 3rd place overall after clocking a time just under three-tenths away from the top spot. Adrian Fernandez (Leopard Racing) missed out on the top three by just 0.047s as he took P4. Next up behind the Spaniard was Ivan Ortola (Angeluss MTA Team), with 2023 World Champion Jaume Masia (Leopard Racing) taking sixth. Ryusei Yamanaka (GASGAS Aspar Team) finished the day in P7 as half a second covered the top eight - the eighth of those riders being Collin Veijer (Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP). Diogo Moreira (MT Helmets - MSI) and Vicente Perez (BOE Motorsports) rounded out the top 10. Rookie of the Year David Alonso (Valresa GASGAS Aspar Team) suffered two big crashes in Practice 2, the second one involved Ayumu Sasaki (Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP) with the Japanese rider hitting the Colombian's machine on the exit of Turn 11. Both riders were up on their feet, Sasaki rider ok and Alonso heading to the medical centre for a check-up - he'll be reviewed tomorrow morning ahead of Practice 3. That session will decide entrants to Q2, before the final grid of the season is decided from 12:50 (GMT +1).

💕🍄The 12 Days of Ayumu 🍄💕

July 12th, Day 7 of Ayumu’s Birthday Celebration Countdown!!

AYUMU SHINONOME SPECIAL INTERVIEW!

Goto: I’m in charge of today’s interview, looking forward to working with you. Shinonome: Likewise. Goto: I’m not used to this type of thing, but...please be patient with me as we work together. Shinonome: Ah, no worries. Let’s start, shall we?

What’s your best memory from this summer? Best memory...hmm...well, I can’t really remember anything except that it was way too hot this summer. Ah, but, I did get some seasonal items from my favorite restaurant. Seasonal salad dressings, soups, ice cream, etc. They were all delicious.

Goto: How very like you, haha. Shinonome: Oh, actually, do you eat ice cream? I’ve got some left over. Goto: If that’s okay with you? Shinonome: Sure. I mean, it’s still super hot outside right now. Let’s continue with the interview while we eat.

When you take a shower, what’s the first thing you wash? My hair. Then I apply my hair treatment so it can sit while I’m washing my body.

Goto: Hair treatment...so that’s why your hair always looks so pretty. Shinonome: Thank you. Goto, you don’t use any hair treatment? Goto: I use shampoo, rinse my hair out, and then that’s about it. Shinonome: If you're interested, feel free to ask me. I’ll give you recommendations.

Out of everybody in Public Safety, who do you feel the most comfortable confiding in about your worries? I think it kinda depends on what it’s about. Ishigami seems like the type who would keep things strictly between us. Sometimes I talk to Hyogo and Namba, although those guys usually just go and get themselves involved in the problem...

Goto: They do a lot for you, huh? Shinonome: Yeah, except usually their involvement comes a bit before I actually confide in them. Goto: That’s a good thing, though, isn’t it? It shows that they pay attention to how you’re doing. Shinonome: ...It is true that they help, so let’s just leave it at that.

If you had to take over for someone in Public Safety, who would it be? I guess it’d be Namba? As the chief, you have the authority to look at a bunch of different stuff. Plus, you can skip out on work without getting yelled at. 

Shinonome: Taking Goto’s place is also an option.  Goto: You wouldn’t really gain anything by being me. Shinonome: Says you.

What’s your favorite season? If I had to choose? Spring? Passing time is easy in spring.

Goto: Ayumu, what do you usually do every year during spring? Shinonome: During spring break I’ll go see the cherry blossoms nearby. It’s a nice change of pace. Goto: Ah, yeah, the cherry blossoms really are nice to look at there. That location seems to be good in early spring.

Why are you so cool? Thanks. It’s nothing to fuss over, or anything, though...if it seems that way...

Goto: So you’re not good at being fussed over, either, huh? Sounds about right for you. Shinonome: It’s embarrassing to answer a question like that seriously, though... Goto: But your fan club wants to see you act embarrassed, don’t they? Shinonome: ...probably. No, actually, I’m sure they’re nodding yes right now.

MC: I must return to my home on the moon...

MC: Farewell, Ayumu...

Ayumu: ...!!!!

Ayumu: !!

Ayumu: ...don’t just go disappearing on me, dummy.

Thank you to @world-a-to-z​ for screenshots of the booklets!

Stay tuned for more Ayumu content in the upcoming days! You’ll find links to all the posted content here!

There are exactly 12 school idols in Nijigasaki, so it's perfect! It's a really enjoyable song that makes you want to sing along and cheerfully welcome the new year. Rina-chan's in charge of January, and as the lyrics say, it's truly a new start! You can rest well through New Year's and feel ready to work hard again this year. I'm also making a lot of goals, and I hope I can make them come true!

February: Natsumi Murakami (Ai Miyashita)

For me, the song that almost made me cry the most at the 6th Live was “New Year's March!" It was surprising even to me, but I think the beginning of something like a new year brings both anticipation and uncertainty. But when all the members sang this song together from January to December and Yuyu and everyone watching started to call out, I was so happy I felt like I was going to cry because I knew it'd be another fun year for sure (lol). Ai's part for February has a cute pun, and I love it!

March: Mayu Sagara (Kasumi Nakasu)

Dividing the year and the 12 months by each member for a song is something only Nijigasaki can do, and I feel this song could only be sung by us! Each of us is assigned a month, and Kasumin's in charge of March! March is Hinamatsuri! I'm glad cute little Kasumin gets to be in charge of the month of Hinamatsuri! Personally, I have the impression March is a month of meetings and partings, with graduation and such, but when I listen to this song, I feel like I'm spending a whole year with Nijigasaki, which makes me happy!

April: Aguri Onishi (Ayumu Uehara)

It's a really cute song I could imagine everyone singing as they march like marching band conductors. I want you to be a part of this march with us! Ayumu-chan's in charge of April, and I think it's perfect for her because it's an important month for the beginning of new things. If you start something new when you're with Ayumu-chan, I'm sure she'll give you a push on the back and the strength to work hard.

May: Moeka Koizumi (Shioriko Mifune)

It's too genius to have each of the 12 members sing the 12 months! Moreover, the content of each of them was super clear and perfect for each member. We performed it for the first time at the Kanagawa performance of the 6th Live, and I'm glad we were able to sing it in January when the timing was good. I'm looking forward to spending another fun-filled year with you all!

June: Kaori Maeda (Shizuku Osaka)

From the moment I heard it, I was impressed by how much I liked it! It's cheerful yet somehow tearjerking and full of the good qualities of Nijigasaki. The lyric “We'll be together 365 days!" is great, and the solo parts are like a calendar, so you can see everyone in Nijigasaki whenever you listen to it. It's a wonderful song that makes me feel like 2024 will be the best year yet. In terms of seasonal memories, I love spring! Partly because both myself and Shizuku-chan were born in spring, but also because I enjoyed seeing the cherry blossoms! It's nice to feel the warmth of spring and the atmosphere of something beginning.

July: Shu Uchida (Mia Taylor)

"New Year's March!” really matches the members and the vibe of each of their assigned months, making it a song that feels unique to Nijigasaki. Mia-chan's in charge of July, and I thought the refreshing feeling of summer and the twinkling stars in the night sky on Tanabata were perfect for her. The other cast members were humming Mia-chan's part during rehearsals, so I felt the melody and mix of good English and Japanese were very catchy and memorable!

August: Akari Kito (Kanata Konoe)

I love the lyrics, which are so cute, and I can picture each member having fun in each month. The month Kanata's in charge of, August, has an image of "The peak of summer! Beaches, pools, and the sun!" but I thought it was really nice and like her to mention snoozing on the porch. I also like to take naps on the porch at my grandma's house, so I sang it while thinking, “I know what you mean!"

September: Miyu Kubota (Karin Asaka)

When I received the song materials, I thought, “How genius is it that they assign each of the 12 members to sing a month from January to December!?" Karin-chan's in charge of September, and the lyrics include the phrase “night of the full moon.” In another song, "Sweet Eyes," she sings the phrase “the scent of night,” so I guess she must be a girl who's suited to the night (lol). I don't usually eat hamburgers, but I look forward to the moon-viewing burgers that go on sale this time of year so much every year!!!

October: Coco Hayashi (Setsuna Yuki)

It's a song that lets you imagine spending an exciting year with everyone in Nijigaku! Since it's a march, it's a fun song with a rhythm that makes you want to skip. Setsuna's in charge of October, and I think the words “with all my might” and “our passionate feelings don't stop” are typical of her as a serious school idol. I like to picture her running with a smile, all fired up for sports day! I was in the brass band when I was a student, and I once played the drum major during sports day. They lead and conduct the march! I think that's why I was able to sing “New Year's March!” with even more enthusiasm than usual!

November: Maria Sashide (Emma Verde)

I often listen to songs associated with each season, but it was refreshing to sing a song about the year! When I first heard about the concept of the 12 school idols singing the 12 months, I was impressed at how well it suited Nijigasaki! I think it's a song only we could've made! The lyrics for each season are also unique, such as “Eating roasted sweet potatoes warms the heart,” and it's cute how they reflect that girl's personality! It's an exciting song that makes you wonder what will happen in the coming year, so I hope everyone will listen to it while looking forward to Nijigasaki's future activities!

December: Akina Homoto (Lanzhu Zhong)

When I first heard the song, I thought it was astoundingly genius how each member could be assigned exactly 1 month (lol). I feel it contains the message of wanting to spend the year doing lots of fun things together, both to each other and from the members to “you,” and that's why I was so happy to be able to deliver it to everyone at the turn of the year. I think it fits perfectly with the theme of the concert. Lanzhu-chan's in charge of December, and she really loves to “party,” so I hope she'll have a Christmas party with everyone, just like in the lyrics, and eat lots of meat, her favorite food. Please listen to this song as often as you like!

I was surprised to hear I was going to record the radio calisthenics! (lol) But I thought this would give me more opportunities to do radio calisthenics with you, and if we do it together, we can loosen up our bodies in a healthy way, so it's killing two birds with one stone… or even three birds! I recorded it as if Yu-chan was doing the exercises with you, so please pay attention to her voice.

Bleach OCs (Batch One)

I have a whole bunch of Bleach OCs because this is where my brain is. Now everyone can meet these Horrible Rascals (Affectionate). Hopefully, getting it all out makes it easier to switch back to my regularly scheduled programing. All of their information is set maybe two weeks max after the Ryoka Invasion and during the Winter War. I also have a lot of headcanons for how the Seireitei, Gotei 13, etc work and will elaborate on that later on. Basically, I took a bunch of worldbuilding I liked and went, “I can make these even better!”

Noburu didn’t have a male heir and decided that firmly was not a problem. His baby girl would be his heir. - While in a relationship with Ayumu then (and now) they don’t really consider their marriage to have carried over. So, they do romantically pursue others and share about it. - They’re a retainer for the Shiba Clan under Shiba, Isshin (along with Ayumu) but actually attended the Shin’o Academy with his nephew, Kaien, for two years. They knew each other beforehand and shared a class and quick graduation too.

Name: Yoshinaga, Kiku (Kuroda, Shungiku at birth) Race: Shinigami (Gemischt Quincy when alive) Nationality: Japanese Birthday: February 14, 1800 Death Day: June 21, 1806 Gender: Female Sexuality: Queer Height: 4’7” (139.7cm) Weight: 75 lbs (34 kg) - Affiliation: Seireitei, Shihouin Clan Previous Affiliation(s): N/A Profession: Shinigami Position: 3rd Seat/Onmitsukido Previous Position(s): 8th, 13th, 18th-1 Division: 2nd Previous Division(s): N/A Base of Operations: 2nd Division - Relative(s):    - Shihouin, Yoruichi - Older Sister Figure (Alive)    - Urahara, Kisuke - Older Brother Figure (Alive)    - Tsukabishi, Tessai - Older Brother Figure (Alive)    - Kuroda, Fumiyo - Mother (Echt Quincy)(Dead)    - Kuroda, Masato/Yoshinaga, Nori (Spiritually Aware Human)(Dead) Education: Shin’o Academy - Shikai: Hoshizora (Starry Sky) Bankai: Hoshizora: Fukushuunoowari (Starry Sky: Vengeful End) - Notes - Kiku died from being struck by lightning. As a result, she has the lichtenberg scars on the entire left half of her body. They seemed to only solidify when she was konsoed. - She honestly knew nothing of her Quincy Heritage until she met Ishida, Uryuu. Her father pretended he got her ability to see spirits from him. Because her mother was killed in the Quincy Extermination in 1801. She was the head of the Kuroda Clan and led them into battle, giving her life so her husband and daughter could escape. When her father told her about the monsters in black and white she assumed they were the hollows she sometimes saw, not the shinigami. - Gives exactly zero fucks about being polite when it comes to names and honorifics. She calls most people by their first name or nicknames, skips most honorifics, and lets that be someone else’s problem. - For several decades after her death she lived in North 75th District regarded as something of a yokai. The Shinigami ignored a lot of the chatter from the locals because nothing about their yokai shared no hollow characteristics. Urahara and Yoruichi found her by chance. For them it was easy to piece together things like her “eating people's lives” was her reiatsu (and future shikai) seeking out reishi and reiryoku to fuel it. - She’s published several highly successful serial novels in the Seireitei Communication. When she was alone she made up stories to amuse herself then refined it when she found out her best friend, Nanao, loves to read. They’re her little love letters to Nanao for being her best friend since they’ve met. - Because she’s a ward of the Shihouin Clan her attending the Shin’o Academy was a formality. It was known almost from the start she would join the 2nd Division and Onmitsukidou with Yoruichi and Co. But, she stayed all six years because of Nanao. They were both the only “little girls” in the Academy and she worried about her being alone. So, she stayed so they could have as much time together as possible.
