I SAW YOU IN A DREAM - kohaku o. x  gen.reader

they both love astronomy, and fates that brings them to repeat the same sight over and over again.

!! Warnings : lower case intended, mentioned death of a character, reader losing memories/some kind of illness, small angst(?), mentions of greek mythology

"who are you?"

"n/n-han, stop joking around, we don't have all day if you wanted to see the stars, this is the time, we can't stand around just cuz' yer joking around."

not noticing how you've space out and stared at the boy's eyes for a while, it truly is mesmerising, it always makes you feel spellbinded.

y/n, you've never met this person before.

the soft pink haired boy smiled at person infront of him, feels like déjà vu, everything seems too real to be reality,

"yer just gonna keep staring?"

"um, sorry.."

"it's fine, let's go."

"where?"

"didn't you asked me to accompany you to stargazing?"

it feels like the summer breeze are arriving pretty soon, the skies were clear, there were only a lake, and some empty spots beneath the stars that were aligned at that time, it feels just like a dream, a nostalgic dream.

"sometimes i wonder what's so interesting about stars, yer always ramblin' about them to me"

"i think they're very pretty..."

The boy hummed in agreement, it was a peaceful night, nothing to be expected, it feels like a dream.

"nee, n/n-han"

"hm?"

"even with these stars twinkling above me in the sky, but i help that you're the only one on my mind."

"n/n. I'll always loved you from the moon and back. no matter how many times a memory will replay."

perhaps shock has eaten you up, or it's just that the breeze that brings in a different season, it is the gift from the gods to bless the land of humans, yet fate was so cruel, the three sisters of fates hates us.

"but pleaseー

keep remembering my love for you."

you opened your eyes to meet with a white room; the hospital, you've been here for as long as you can remember. the smells of alcohol and medical instruments swayed on the air, the room was provided with a window, reflecting the view outside.

waking up from your bed, someone beside you stood up and comes near you.

"l/n-san! did any dreams occurred? did you meet kohakun? the pink haired boy, a little short but has the same purple eyes you loved so much, did you meet him?" 

"kasa.."

"who are you talking about? who's kohakun?"

in the end, the sisters of fates believed it was for the better, blessing from the gods were cruel, but fates were much cruel as the deities that were suppose to share blessings to their creations.

he shall rest in eternity, waiting for his beloved to be returned their remembrance, it wouldn't be horrible, but perhaps, everything could've ended better, if those were done when the stars were aligned.

A First Step, Towards Friendship

Season: Spring (ES!! second year)

Characters: Kohaku, Hiiro, Madara

Hiiro and Kohaku: Nom nom….

Hiiro: Ah, I accidentally got some on the table. Could you get a wipe, Kohaku-san?

Kohaku: ‘Course, here ya go. Ya gotta open yer mouth big an’ wide so that ya don't spill crumbs. 

Hiiro: Thank you, I’ll take note of that! 

Kohaku: (...He looks ‘bout as normal a boy as they come when he’s eatin’ breakfast, huh)

(The Hiiro-han I saw durin’ Matrix astonished me so much that I can’t help but incessantly worry away just from bein’ near him) 

(He disciplines in a way that dredges up memories of my sisters… or particularly, the way he made us prepare for all kinds o’ things) 

(He dived headfirst into playin’ villain just so Crazy:B could secure the first win)

(There sure were lotsa things happenin’ in the Amagi village, but by far my biggest shocker would be…) 

Hiiro: Umu. Today’s bread was baked wonderfully. It was so delicious. Maybe I should get seconds? 

Kohaku: (whispering) With that face, he follows every rule to an absolute. He forces everyone to follow them with him, an’ any opposition turns him into a terrifyin’ lad)

(Like say, were there to be a rule that determined that all breakfasts shall be bread, what would Hiiro-han do?) 

(Would he even go as far as to tell me, who’s currently eatin’ rice, to have bread instead?) 

Phew. I got so caught up with these stupid ideas that simply eatin’ breakfast took far too long. 

???: I’m hooooome!!!! ☆ I’m so thirsty after running! 

Kohaku: Mm… no doubt, that’s Madara-han’s voice. G’mornin’. 

Madara: Ohh, if it isn’t Kohaku-san! Goooood morniiiiing! ☆

Kohaku: Yer always so damn loud. 

Anyhow, there’s somethin’ I wanted to ask… 

Would ya rather have rice or bread for breakfast? 

Madara: …Hmm? That’s quite the unexpected question. 

Have you been wondering about what food I like? I’m so happy to hear that ♪

Kohaku: Ah, no, this ain’t the type o’ question that should be thrillin’ ya. Not like I’ll die without yer answer anyhow. 

Madara: Now now, don't be shy and say it with your chest! "I'm dyin' to make breakfast for Madara-han", right? ♪

Kohaku: Who’s sayin’ what? And the same goes to you. Rather than "accidentally" pullin’ it outta me, can'tcha just ask directly? Y'know, "Why is Kohaku-san asking me something like this, hmm?"

Anyhow, I’ll explain… I was eatin’ with Hiiro-han just now. 

So we were in the Matrix project, where this an’ that happened… Now, I’ve got this slightly odd relationship with Hiiro-han. 

Madara: Mmhm. I see, I get the situation now. 

Oh, to think that Kohaku-san would consult me for relationship advice ♪

Mama’s delighted! Moved beyond words! So happy, in fact, that I feel inclined to ruffle Kohaku-san’s head ☆

Kohaku: Uwaah!? Stop! 

Actually, what’s with this weirdass attitude? Are ya makin’ fun of me, ya jerk? 

Madara: Hahaha, who’s to say? 

Anyway. Personally, I’d say that becoming friends with Hiiro-san could alleviate much of your worries, Kohaku-san. 

Kohaku: Friends? 

Madara: Yep. For example… if Hiiro-san were to invite you to a meal, you wouldn’t turn him down, right? 

Kohaku: Well, I ‘spose so. We were eatin’ together earlier too. 

Madara: Then, let’s extend it from within the Starmony dorms to ES as a whole. What would you do if he asked you to go shopping with him? Turn him down? 

Kohaku: Maybe if I had other plans… ‘sides that, I don’t see a reason to not go. 

Madara: Yep. So basically, you two are already on pretty decent terms. 

But what would you consider Hiiro-san to be to you? 

Is he an acquaintance from a different unit? Or perhaps someone close to a good friend of yours? …Try taking a step back to reevaluate. 

Kohaku: That’s true. Who knows whether or not Rabu-han an’ I have the same thoughts on this person. 

Madara: I’m also assuming that, since whatever happened during Matrix, your thoughts on him have complicated since. 

You two may be on relatively good terms, but with your perspective, it seems you can’t quite put a good name to your relationship. 

And that’s exactly why if you were able to get to a point where you could start calling him a “friend”, you could reforge your relationship with him entirely. 

Kohaku: Woah… I’d never expected you to give such sound advice. 

Madara: ….That’s odd. I’m supposed to be your older senpai with plenty of life experience under my belt, no?

Kohaku: My bad. I just didn’t expect the friendless Madara-han to be the one advisin’ me on makin’ friends. 

Madara: Hrm… what was that about me making fun of you earlier? 

Kohaku: Ahaha! ‘Course, I think I can do this with yer idea. Thank ya kindly ♪

Now, I’ll call Hiiro-han right away—

Hiiro: This… is a store selling idol merchandise, yes? 

Did you want to come to this store with me, Kohaku-san? 

Kohaku: It must’ve been a doozy to be called an’ brought here so suddenly, sorry ‘bout that. 

I was just glad to have gotten in touch with ya… but the only spot I can think for bringin’ “friends” is this idol goods store. (2)

Hiiro: “Friends”? 

Kohaku: Mmhm. I’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout wantin’ to be such with ya, Hiiro-han. 

I thought of talkin’ it out with fists too, since I reckon that a playfight could bring us closer. 

Hiiro: With fists? Playfight? 

Kohaku: Ah, I’m just talkin’ to myself. Don’t worry ‘bout that. 

…So far, I believe you and I’ve been toddlin’ along on just “being on decent terms”. 

What do you think ‘bout callin’ each other “friends” from now on? 

We’ve even worked together as one unit before, so how ‘bout we continue workin' together? 

I’d never really tried to make friends before, so I may slip an’ say weird things from time to time. If that’s okay with you…. how about it? 

Hiiro: ….Umu! I’d love to, Kohaku-san! 

Kohaku: Really? 

Hiiro: Of course ♪ You’re a close friend of Aira’s, so I assumed that the two of us were already friends. 

But now that I think about it, I never did walk up to you and go, “let’s be friends!”, did I? 

From now on, as newfound friends… I’ll be in your care, Kohaku-san ♪

Kohaku: Ahaha, shakin’ hands as proof of our friendship, huh. What a nice feelin’ ♪

I planned on the two of us just goin’ shopping as friends, but I’d like ta hear more ‘bout ya, Hiiro-han. 

Do you have any other friends, like Hinata-han? What hobbies do you have, and what do ya usually talk about? Can ya tell me?

Hiiro: Of course! Let’s shop and chat away! 

Kohaku: Thanks, Hiiro-han. As friends, from now on… I’ll be in yer care ♪

An Unfamiliar Sight (HiMERU Idol Story)

Author: Kanata Haruka

Characters: Rinne, Niki, Kohaku, HiMERU

"—HiMERU also feels restless in his school uniform, you know."

Season: Winter Location: Lounge in TV Station

Rinne: Hiya~ I got to the dressing room earlier than expected, huuh.

I've turned into a respectable member of society ♪

Niki: What're you talking about, Rinne-kun. A respectable member of society doesn't typically stroll into the dressing room right at the last minute.

Uh, wait? Is Kohaku-chan the only one here?

Rinne: Ain't it weird that Merumeru's runnin' late? Did he get a stomachache or somethin'?

Kohaku: Haah. You both just go at yer own pace as always. Didn't y'all see HiMERU-han's message?

HiMERU-han mentioned there were some procedures at Shuuetsu Academy he couldn't miss, so he'll be late.

Rinne: Academy? Oh, yeah, Merumeru's still a student.

Any way you look at it, he doesn't look like a student at all, so I totally forgot.

Niki: I completely forgot about it too. So HiMERU-kun's an earnest student, huh~

But, you know, it's kinda mysterious. I feel like I've never seen HiMERU-kun in his school uniform.

Even though we've already spent a bunch of time together?

Kohaku: Yeah, that's right. When Crazy:B got thrown into the same room, he and I both took a temporary absence from school.

He returned to school after movin' into the Seisoukan dorms, so we haven't had a straightforward chance to see it, y'know?

Rinne: Gotcha. Well, I guess Merumeru ain't tryna hide it either.

In that case, wouldn't it be interesting to see Merumeru in his uniform at least once?

HiMERU: —What about HiMERU's uniform?

Rinne: Oh, speak of the devil ♪ Hey, Merumeru. You're wearing your uniform this... time...

HiMERU: Apologies for the delay in getting here. HiMERU will get ready quickly.

Rinne & Kohaku: .........

HiMERU: Amagi, Oukawa, what's the matter? You look quite dumbfounded.

Rinne: Gyahahahahaha! Hey, hey, ain't that a bit too much, Merumeru?!

HiMERU: What is it with you laughing all of a sudden, Amagi?

Niki: Woah~ It's my first time seeing HiMERU-kun in his school uniform.

Yup, yup, I see. So it feels like that~ It's kinda refreshing.

HiMERU: —Right. Now that Shiina has said that, HiMERU gets the gist of it.

However, he finds it upsetting to be laughed at to this extent.

Kohaku: No, sorry, HiMERU-han... It ain't like I'm burstin' out laughin' like Rinne-han, but....

Seein' HiMERU-han in an unfamiliar outfit, I was at a loss for words to describe this strange feelin'...

Rinne: No matter how I look at it, you look like a cosplayer! For real, my stomach hurts! Gyahahahaha!

HiMERU: (...Is it really enough to warrant saying that?)

Rinne: Hey, hey, don't make that face, Merumeru.

I've never seen ya look like a proper highschooler before, so I just burst out laughing.

Kohaku: My bad, HiMERU-han. I'm in the same boat as Rinne-han.

There's a saying of "the clothes make the man", but in yer case, it's the opposite.

The uniform can't compete with yer mature atmosphere.

HiMERU: —Amagi, Oukawa, there's no need to force yourselves to keep talking.

It seems like you are desperately trying to patch it up, but the conclusion remains the same.

From now on, no matter how much of a hurry he's in, HiMERU will make sure not to come to work still in uniform.

Rinne: Don't get so pouty, Merumeru. It was my bad.

See, I never really went to school properly.

So it's prolly the norm for highschoolers like Merumeru to exist, yeah?

Niki: Well, besides HiMERU-kun, none of us are really attending school properly. Even I only graduated middle school.

Kohaku: I'm also just startin' to get back into school.

If you think 'bout it that way, the only one here who's leadin' a decent student life's HiMERU-han.

I wonder what kinda highschool life yer leadin'. I'm curious now...

HiMERU: —HiMERU can confidently say it hasn't been the youth that Oukawa is expecting.

Rinne: But, actually, you're havin' an exquisite time at school, ain'tcha?

Accordin' to our deputy director, Shuuetsu's a place with a well-established employee benefits system.

HiMERU: HiMERU hardly makes use of it. Naturally, HiMERU prioritizes idol activities.

—Ah, but some of the services available at Shuuetsu may indeed be described as "exquisite".

Kohaku: Oh~ If HiMERU-han says so, then they must be real good.

What the heck are they? I wanna know for reference.

HiMERU: Although it may have sounded grandiose, it's not such a big deal.

It is only a ryoutei—that is to say, a high class traditional restaurant. You can enjoy delicious dishes with well-balanced nutrition.

Niki: Please wait a second!

A ryoutei?! There's a place like that at Shuuetsu Academy?!

HiMERU: Yes, it seems that it is managed by the same affiliate company as CosPro.

A dedicated chef and nutritionist are assigned to each idol to provide the optimal menus.

It is reasonably inexpensive for students, so it has been helpful for HiMERU to utilize it several times when he eats meals.

Niki: ...I see. There's such a heavenly place in Shuuetsu, is there.

I've decided. I'm gonna transfer to Shuuetsu Academy! And I'll eat a bunch of food at the ryoutei!

Kohaku: That's a lousy motive, Niki-han...

Rinne: To begin with, Niki's a middle school graduate. You gotta start from the beginning, not as a transfer!

You'll be a first year in highschool and it'll just be too tough, so forget it, forget it.

You'd be better off securing your future by becoming my housewife and getting a permanent job at my place.

Niki: I hate that, I don't wanna be taken away by Rinne-kun for my whole life!

Please, HiMERU-kun! I don't like being pushy, but I wanna go to Shuuetsu's ryoutei too!

HiMERU: —HiMERU can't do anything about it single-handedly.

However, Shuuetsu Academy is a school for outstanding idols.

If Shiina can demonstrate exceptional talent as an idol, perhaps...

Niki: Are you for realsies?! You must be!

HiMERU: —Provided that you can demonstrate your ability. In that sense, this upcoming recording may be just the right chance for you.

Niki: Alriiight! Once it's decided like that, I'll get to work right away!

Rinne-kun and Kohaku-chan, we're going all out today!

The taste of ryoutei is waiting for me!

Kohaku: Niki-han really is a guy who only cares 'bout his stomach...

Rinne: ...Nice job baiting Niki, Merumeru.

But I won't take the blame for whatever happens later, aight?

HiMERU: —HiMERU understands that. That is why he didn't confirm anything either.

In the worst case scenario, he will take out a meal from the ryoutei and bring it back to the dormitory. It's humiliating, so he'd rather not, if possible.

Now, let's put an end to the chitchat. There's not much time left for the recording, so let's get ready quickly.

—HiMERU also feels restless in his school uniform, you know.

Note: About the housewife line... Yeah I don't know man. What it says on the tin. The page just talks about how women getting married used to be referred to as a permanent job, which is what Rinne says Niki should get with him.

Number Eight - Prologue

Characters: Rinne, HiMERU, Kohaku & Niki Location: Inside helicopter Season: Winter Writer: Akira

TL Note:

Rinne makes an error with the idiom; the original idiom is about filial piety (a virtue of exhibiting love and respect for one's parents, elders, and ancestors) and not brotherhood.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ< One day at the beginning of March. Up in the air. >

Rinne: Hey, Niki. There’s something I wanna tell ya since it’s gonna be the end.

We might seriously be in danger.

Niki: Huh? What’s wrong? Why’re you saying that all of a sudden?

…You said “the end”, but this is our ride there. Don’t you mean “the beginning”?

Rinne: No, no. What I’m tryin’ to say is that this situation is weird.

Come on, think about it. They blindfolded us and then shoved us into a bus, a plane and then a helicopter.

This doesn’t sound like a simple overseas shoot at all.

Maybe we unknowingly offended our CosPro boss, so we’re getting buried out in the middle of nowhere. 

Geez, if I knew this was gonna happen, I should’ve said goodbye to my cute lil’ brother. You know what they say: You realise it’s too late by the time you wanna be a good older brother[⁎]!

Niki: How can the entertainment industry be so heartless…? They’re way too cruel! Does this mean we’re not needed anymore!?

I wish they prepared a final meal for us at least. I don’t wanna die on an empty stomach~!

Kohaku: You two are overreactin’. We’re just headin’ to our next shoot.

We simply received an offer to appear in a variety show that’s similar to “The Minotaur’s Labyrinth”, since it seems it was unexpectedly popular, and people enjoyed seein’ us do ridiculous things.

I bet they’re schemin’ because they wanna make us do somethin’ similar…

Rinne: Woah~ Looks like we’ve got a little bee who can’t read the room!

The super entertaining Rinne-kun was just trying to put on a good show~ I did all that to trick Niki and now my hard work’s gone down the drain.

Niki: What? All that pessimistic stuff you said earlier was a lie!?

I can’t believe you tricked me! If you’re gonna make fun of people like that, then you’re just gonna die a worthless death, you hear!

HiMERU: Amagi, Shiina, Oukawa. Can you three be quiet for a moment?

I’d like to rest while I can. If this is going to be a repeat of “The Minotaur’s Labyrinth”, then it’s surely going to be another stamina test.

We should preserve our energy as much as we can while we’re on the move. That’s the secret to working successfully.

Kohaku: HiMERU-han, you’re adaptin’ to the situation right away.

HiMERU: But, of course. HiMERU would like to resolve everything in a smart and resourceful manner.

Had I not been kidnapped by Amagi, I would have loved to be away, doing my own solo work.

Rinne: Things don’t work out like that in the real world, ya know ♪ We’re in the same unit – and that means we’ll ride and die together ♪

Niki: You really bring bad luck wherever you go, Rinne-kun.

Anyway, I’m glad we’re not gonna die.

Come to think of it, they checked our passports when we got on the plane here. I’ll be fine as long as I get to eat a bunch of local specialties~♪

Kohaku: All you have on your mind is food, huh, Niki-han.

I’d like to rest once we land, but…

Hmm?

Niki: What’s wrong, Kohaku-chan? Did you spot a delicious-looking animal or something?

Kohaku: No. Look over there.

There’s some sort of big banner on the ground.

Niki: “COME HERE”...? What does that mean?

HiMERU: Hmm. Apparently, the pilot says that it's supposed to be “used as a landing pad”.

Rinne: “Used as a landing pad”...? Sounds like something for parachuting.

So that means the real stuff is coming up, right? Alright, we’ve done a lotta different stuff, but parachuting will be a first!

I accept the challenge, so follow me, you guys ♪

Niki: Ah, wait a minute, Rinne-kun! Don’t start putting the parachuting equipment on!

I’m not mentally ready to jump off just yet!

Rinne: Details come later!

Come on, the instructor’s tellin’ us to hurry up too!

Niki: What? Those people weren’t here to film us, but they’re here to help us with the parachute!?

Rinne: I can flyyyy…☆

Niki: Rinne-kun! He just jumped off without listening to what I had to say!

His arrogance knows no bounds. Should we talk to the pilot and ask them to drop us off somewhere closer?

Kohaku: Ko ko ko. This is my first time parachuting as well ♪

It’ll be a valuable experience. If we can’t say no, then all that’s left is to give it a go and jump ♪

Niki: Not you too, Kohaku-chan!?

HiMERU: Stop looking so surprised, Shiina. You should put on your parachuting equipment.

It seems we don’t have a choice yet again. I think it would be wise to do what the show wants us to do instead of prolonging the conversation.

Niki: What? You’re gonna jump off too, HiMERU-kun?

I don’t wanna use my calories to do something like parachuting… Oh, geez. I guess I don’t have a choice, huh~

Okay. I just have to do it, don’t I!?

In exchange, they better let me have a taste of the delicious local specialties here!

I can flyyyy…!

Niki Shiina - Meal Ticket of Justice

Writer: Yuumasu

Season: Winter

(Location: CosPro Office)

Niki: ‘Su~p, Staff-san. It’s Shiina Niki from Crazy:B.

Is the deputy director here? He asked me to come see him.

Hmm, he’s in the middle of a meeting with a client? It looks like it’ll be over in ten-ish minutes?

In that case, can I wait here? I’ll be in the corner so I won’t get in the way.

It’s a~lright. He asked me to come when I have time, and I don’t have any plans today.

By the way, you wouldn’t have heard from the deputy director about what kind of business he was looking at, wouldya?

Is that so~. …… Nah, nah, I’ll just ask him directly☆

Nahaha, thanks for your concern. Please keep up the good work, Staff-san~☆

(What the heck’s goin’ on if even the staff don’t know about it either~……?

I’m not happy about being the only one called here, it’s hard to comprehend.

Seriously, I have no idea~. …… Did someone from Crazy:B do something wrong?

But if it’s that then the leader would be called……

As if. I feel like calling in Rinne-kun wouldn’t do anything.

Does that mean I’m acting as a substitute for the leader? Even if that were the case, I think HiMERU-kun and Kohaku-chan are more suitable than me.

Hm~m. If possible, it’d be great if he’d avoid talking about difficult topics~……)

Ibara: —Thank you for waiting, Shiina-shi.

Niki: Deputy director! Thanks for your hard work at the meeting.

Ibara: I apologize for the inconvenience. Let me cut right to the chase.

Please take this.

Niki: A flyer for a newly opened restaurant—I don’t think it’s something like that. Uuummmm……

“Dance Workshop”?

Ibara: Yes, this is a workshop for ES idols.

Shiina-shi, your choreography sometimes appears sloppy compared to the other members of Crazy:B.

It’s free, so please consider this a prime opportunity and take part in it!

Niki: Uwaai. I-I’ll do my best……

Ibara: Contrary to your words, you look blatantly disgusted.

Niki: Hmm. To be honest, I’m not into the idea.

A dance workshop, huh… Just thinking about it makes me hungry.

Ibara: Haah…… Well, I expected you to say that.

Not to worry. I’ve prepared a proper reward for you.

Niki: Reward……?

Ibara: Indeed. If you participate in the workshop, you’ll be provided with this “meal ticket that can be used at restaurants nationwide.”

Niki: A m-meal ticket……! I want it, gimme!

Ibara: Ah ah, I won’t give it to you for free♪

Shiina-shi, you promise to attend the workshop, right?

Niki: I promise! I promise on my meal ticket, I’ll do my best……☆

(Location: Dance Room)

(A few days later. The day of the workshop.)

Niki: Meal ticket~♪ Free food~♪ Funfufufu~n……♪

Chiaki: Hm? Shiina will also be participating?

Niki: Oh, that’s Morisawa-ku~n, isn't it!

I didn’t think I knew anyone here, so I’m relieved.

Chiaki: Me too. I always thought these workshops were mainly attended by new idols.

Niki: Same here. I was a little worried that I’d attract attention.

But if Morisawa-kun is here then it’s like a weight off my shoulders! It’s reassuring to be with you!

Chiaki: Right! Let’s encourage each other and work hard together……☆

Niki: Alright! …… Ah, it looks like the dance teacher’s here now.

Now’s the time~. I’ll do my best!

(Two hours later. After the workshop, self-study time)

Niki: That’s ho~rrible, Morisawa-kun!

I thought you were about on par with me, but you’re not that bad at all!

Chiaki: Sorry. It's clear you’re also taking part in order to improve your skills……

Niki: Now that I think about it, in √AtoZ you learned the dance early on and taught it to everyone, right?

I wouldn’t have misunderstood if I remembered properly, but I forgot about it ‘til just now.

Uuu. It’s my own fault, but I feel like I’ve been left behind by the person I’d said “Let’s reach the goal together” to at a marathon race……

Chiaki: Shiina……

I’m really sorry. As an apology, could I join you in your self-study?

Niki: Eh? No, it’s my bad for not checking.

Chiaki: No. That won’t give me peace of mind.

In the process of teaching you, I’ll be able to learn about myself. Please let me help you!

(One hour later)

Niki: 1, 2, 3~♪ …… Turn here☆

Didya see that, Morisawa-kun? I did it exactly as you taught me!

Chiaki: Great, Shiina. You’re definitely making progress!

Niki: Nahaha. It’s thanks to you. Thanks for being patient with me……☆

I mean. Sorry for asking you to stick here with me ‘til the last minute before we have to leave even though you’re not getting anything in return.

Chiaki: Don’t sweat it. A hero is someone who helps someone without hesitation if they’re in trouble. Deserting you is against my sense of justice.

Besides, I did get something in return. I was able to support your growth. This sense of accomplishment is a joy beyond compare……☆

Niki: Justice, huh~…… Well then, I’ll also follow my own justice.

Chiaki: Shiina’s justice?

Niki: Fufufu. I have a meal ticket right here! To thank you for your guidance, I’ll treat you to dinner♪

Eating after a lotta dancing is so much fun! Life is fun. This is my justice……☆

Chiaki: I see. That’s your way of thinking.

Alright,  tonight let’s celebrate your growth and enjoy a meal!

Niki: Nahaha, I’m drooling just thinking about what to eat♪

C’mon c’mon, let’s go before we get too hungry……☆

Yuuta Aoi - Budding Season

Author: Yuumasu

Characters: Yuuta, Rinne, HiMERU, Kohaku

Translator: Mika Enstars

"(I-Ignore him, ignore him…! If I react, I lose!)"

[Read on my blog for the best viewing experience with Oi~ssu ♪]

Season: Winter

Location: CosPro Office (Conference Area)

Yuuta: (Yaaay, I got some super-spicy rice crackers from someone at the agency!)

(Thanks for the mea~l. *chew chew*)

(Ah~, delicious! This tingling sensation that lingers on the tongue is just the best…☆)

(Since we’ve advertised ourselves as “the older brother who likes sweet food” and “the younger brother who likes spicy food” to emphasize our twin characters…)

(Those around us can tell us apart, and I don’t have any problem getting spicy food these days~.)

(I get told things like “It was a gift from a business partner, so I saved it for you, Yuuta-san” and “I saw this during a business trip, so I bought it for you”…)

(I’m so glad I’ve been using my love for spicy food as my appeal…☆)

(I’ll have to remember to mention that in my in my interview with the idol magazine today. ♪)

(…I have a lot of solo work tomorrow, too. I’ve gotten a sudden increase in individual appearances lately…)

(I guess it’s because half of 2wink, that sold themselves for their identical looks, suddenly got an image change?)

(Though my blood does boil when trashy gossip mags will write about it and call it a “rebellious phase that came late” or an “agency policy” or whatever.)

(But I try to tell myself it’s better than not being talked about at all.)

Yuuta: (…But when I get pissed off, I get seriously pissed off, though~.)

(Anyhow. The attention I’ll be getting for this is temporary, so I need to make sure I don’t get too cocky.)

(Right now, it’s just bonus time. I’m only being featured out of amusement, because they find it unusual and unheard of—)

(I need to properly give thought on how to proceed myself as 2wink, and as Aoi Yuuta…)

(I know things won’t be the same as they used to… How can I convey who I am now…?)

(……)

(Nope, I don’t have any ideas…)

(Maybe I’ll read idol magazines and ponder it.)

Rinne: Heya all~, Crazy:B minus Niki has arrived! ♪

Yuuta: (Ugh. Someone troublesome just came in!)

(I’ll hide my face behind this magazine to not be noticed…)

Rinne: Ooh, I see a little cutie! Yu~ta ♪

Yuuta: (Ignore him, ignore him…)

Rinne: That’s the magazine with Crazy:B’s gravure!

Are ya takin’ notice to me? I’m embarrassed~, Gyahaha! ☆

Yuuta: (I-Ignore him, ignore him…! If I react, I lose!)

HiMERU: —Amagi, quit it.

Kohaku: What he said. Can’t ya see you’re botherin’ Yuuta-han?

Rinne: It’s fine, it’s fiiine! Yuta and I are buddies!

Don’t ignore me, Yuta! Come have a nice chat with your big bro, ‘kay?

Yuuta: You are not my big bro!

Rinne: Theeere we go. Finally lookin’ at me, eh?

You eatin’ those spicy rice crackers again? Won’t ya upset yer stomach eatin’ too much of that stuff?

Yuuta: None of your business.

Rinne: Hmm… Are ya growin’ your hair out more?

Yuuta: It’s less that I’m growing it out, and just that I’m not cutting it.

I’m free to do whatever I want with my hair, as long as it doesn’t get in the way of work, aren’t I?

HiMERU: HiMERU agrees. Growing your hair long means more options for styling it.

Kohaku: Is that the reason why Niki-han’s got long hair too?

Rinne: In that guy’s case, growin’ it out would do nothin’ but just have it be longer, wouldn’t it?

He had his hair pulled back when we first met too, just shorter than it is now.

Kohaku: Is that so? …Yuuta-han, can I ask ya a stupid question that’s been on my mind for a while?

Is that hairstyle some sorta show of respect to Madara-han?

Yuuta: Huh, Mikejima-senpai?

Kohaku: Y’know, the half-up sorta look. It’s similar to how Madara-han wears his hair, y’know?

So I figured it maybe was a matter of respect. Doesn’t seem to be the case though, judgin’ from your reaction.

Yuuta: Ahaha… Yeah, it’s just a coincidence. I figured it’d be a little boring if I just grew it out.

It’d get in my face when I move around, so I just tied the sides of my hair up.

It’s a surprise to me that it was taken as a sign of respect for Mikejima-senpai. If I’m gonna grow my hair out, I gotta learn how to style it, huh…

Rinne: How ’bout we Crazy:B try givin’ producin’ yer hairstyle a try, Yuta? We’ll cook ya up a good meal!

Yuuta: Thank you very much~, if you’d be so kind, I’d appreciate it, then~.

Rinne: Ah, I thought ya would never agree to that in your life.

Yuuta: Ahaha. ♪ Seems like the magazine reporter is here to see me, so you’ll have to excuse me first.

HiMERU: Yes. I apologize for our Amagi.

Rinne: The hell you mean by that?

See ya later then, Yuta.

Kohaku: Do your best at work!

Yuuta: (Produce my hairstyle, huuuh?… Crazy:B’s changed, too. They weren’t that type of character when they first debuted.)

(…Guess the same goes for me. Back when I first debuted… No, even since when we’d perform on the streets, all I did was imitate Aniki.)

(As the two-in-one twin idols, 2wink.)

(Because, that was the strongest weapon we had.)

Yuuta: (…How will I change? How will I grow and who will I become?)

(……)

(I don’t know, so I’ll just do what I’m able to do now. One by one, as Aoi Yuuta would.)

(If I build myself up carefully like this, then one day—)

(I believe I’ll reach the future I desire.)

ES Fireworks Festival 2024: Day 1

Kuro: Oh, got it. We’ll help carry everythin’ to the Meeting Room right away. Just leave it to Mikejima and me. 

Season: ☆ Characters: Mikejima Madara. Kiryu Kuro, Aoba Tsumugi, Tomoe Hiyori, Oukawa Kohaku, Hakaze Kaoru, Takamine Midori, Fushimi Yuzuru

<In ES Lobby.>

Madara: Ohhh, it’s Anzu-san and Tsumugi-san ♪ We’ve been waiting for youuu!

Kuro: Whoops. Those are some pretty heavy bags you’re carryin’. What have you got in them?

Tsumugi: Ahaha… … While Anzu-chan and I were talking as we shopped, we came up with some unexpectedly good ideas. That’s the reason we ended up making more purchases than we planned. 

Kuro: Oh, got it. We’ll help carry everythin’ to the Meeting Room right away. Just leave it to Mikejima and me. 

Madara: Here, Anzu-san. Let me carry those bags for you… … ♪

< In the Meeting Room.> 

Hiyori: Come on! They’re late, late, laaate~! I’m so tired of waiting! What in the world is taking Anzu-chan so long to get here?

Yuzuru: Please be patient, Hiyori-sama. According to Aoba-sama’s last message, they’ll be arriving at ES soon… … 

<Sound of door opening.> 

Kuro: Wow. Everyone’s here already, huh?

Kaoru: Of course ♪ I heard that Anzu-chan wanted to brainstorm for ideas to liven up the Fireworks Festival, so I invited everyone I could find to join us too. 

Midori: Siii~gh. I was in the middle of eating when I got dragged into this… … Uuugh. Still, I’ll try my best to come up with some good ideas.

Kohaku: Same here. And here I was thinkin’ we weren't gonna have a fireworks festival this year, since summer’s almost over and all.

Madara: HAHAHA! Kohaku-san, you were reeeally looking forward to the fireworks last year, weren’t you? ♪ I remember you were as excited as a little kid for it!

Kohaku: Seriously? There’s no call fer you to be bringin’ up such unnecessary happenin's now.

Anyway, Anzu-han, what’s this important thing you wanted to discuss?

<30 minutes later.> 

Hiyori: Yes, yes! I think that’s a great idea! I’m sure all the fans watching the livestream will be absolutely over the moon too… … ♪

Kohaku: Yep. It looks like the event this year will be even more excitin’ than the last. I’ll be sure to pass the word on to those guys in Crazy:B too. 

Kaoru: Hmmm. There’s still quite a bit of time until the main event, so everyone should have no problem coming up with their own unique performance by then, right?

Yuzuru: Fufu. Then, all that's left is to pray for good weather on that day.

Midori: Ah, Fushimi-senpai… …! In that case, why don’t we make some good weather dolls (1) together… …!

Yuzuru: Me? Well, I don’t mind at all… …

Tsumugi: We do need to decide on the costumes for the big day, right?

Kuro: Right. You can leave that to the Little Miss and me. It’s gonna be a big stage fer us, so we gotta give it our all. 

Madara: ALRIIIGHT! Now, all that's left is to wait for the big day to arrive!  Anzu-san, we’ll be counting on you for the event too ♪

Midori says てるてる坊主 (teru teru bozu) or literally “Sunshine-Sunshine-monk”. It is a weather doll made by children in Japan as a good luck charm for clear skies.  You can see what it looks like here.

Tori Himemiya 4☆ Feature Scout 2

Title: Lured in by a Flowery Scent

Writer: Nishioka Maiko

Season: Winter

NOTE: I EXPLICITLY PROHIBIT USAGE OF ANY PART OF MY TRANSLATIONS ON ANYTHING THAT RELATES TO AI.

------------

Tori: Hm? Sniff, sniff… Something smells really good.

Smells like flowers… and fruits? Or not? I wonder what that is. Looks like it's coming from the kitchen?

I'm really curious, so I guess I'll check it out ♪

[ Scene change: Dormitory Kitchen ]

Tsukasa: *inhales*... Marvelous! Ah, what a wonderful aroma this is! It is such an adequate accompaniment for this glorious afternoon reprieve ♪

Tori: Ugh… I just got lured by a pleasant scent and suddenly I see someone who's the exact opposite of pleasant.

Your idol aura was so nonexistent that for a sec I thought you were a commoner who slipped in the dorms. I was just about to make a call and report you~

Tsukasa: Oh, my? It seems like I can hear Tori-kun's horrid voice from somewhere, but I can't seem to see him.

Well, I suppose it's only natural I cannot see someone who is hardly taller than a single pea!

Tori: Mugyiiiiiiiii!

Tsukasa: Guaaaaaaah!

Tsukasa: —Hmph. In any case, could you not get in the way of my valuable tea time? I'm quite sure my precious tea would become unpalatable should you stay here.

Tori: Tea? Is that what smelled so good from earlier? It smelled like flowers and fruits. It's really fragrant.

Tsukasa: That's right. I got my hands on some rare cherry blossom-flavored tea, so I am having quite a good time with it.

Tori: Cherry blossom-flavored tea? Uh huh… Hmm…?

Tsukasa: …Oho? Oho, oho? Is that perhaps a pleading look on your face? Is your mind filled with the need to have a sip as well?

Tori: N-Not really! I was just thinking how it was kind of different, that's all!

Tsukasa: Is that so? Ah, ah~ How blessed am I to have a taste of this delicious tea! Ah, how delightful…♪Fufun~

Though if someone is willing to put their puny little head on the ground and beg, I guess I wouldn't mind sharing some of it.

Tori: Mugyiiiiiiiiii! As if anyone would willingly bow their head to you! In your dreams!

If anything, I pity that cherry blossom tea in your cup. I bet that all it wants is to be enjoyed by a real, fine noble but it just ended up within the hands of a fake one like you~

Tsukasa: Guaaaaaah!? You really do run your mouth so carelessly, don't you?! Suit yourself. You will not be getting a single drop from me!

Kohaku: Hey, sonny boy. I've been hearin' ya since earlier. Give it a break already. I didn't give ya those tea leaves for ya to be so mean.

Tsukasa: Oukawa! I-I wasn't really… Rather, it is Tori-kun's fault for provoking me!

Kohaku: I don't wanna hear your excuses. If ya can't sit down and just enjoy it with people around ya, I'm gonna take that tea right back.

Tsukasa: Uuuu…

T-Tori-kun! We get along just fine, don't we?! A-Aren't we about to have a nice cup of tea together?!

Tori: Haa?!

…I mean, yeah. It's just as you said, Tsukasa~ After all, we're good, good friends~ ♪

Tsukasa and Tori: Fufufufufufu… ♪

Kohaku: That's the spirit. Look at ya two go ♪

[ Scene change: Yumenosaki Garden ]

Tori: Ehehe~ Yesterday was just sooooo annoying, but because I was so mature and sat through it, I've gotten some of those special cherry blossom tea leaves~ ♪

(Since Eichi-sama and Ritsu-senpai have already graduated, Hajime is now all alone doing Tea Club activities. I'm gonna go deliver these leaves to him as a souvenir and check up on him~)

(Aren't I so nice thinking about my friend like this~?)

Hajime, off screen: —I've made this blend for today ♪

Tori: Hm…?

(It sounds like Hajime is talking to someone… That's weird. I thought he was the only one left in the Tea Club. I wonder if someone paid him a visit?)

(If that's so, then it's not good if I end up disturbing them. I'll just take a quick look. If he does have a guest, I'll just come back tomorrow.)

[ Scene change: Garden space ]

Hajime: Thank you for your patience, Eichi onii-chan and Ritsu onii-chan~ ♪

Tori: Uwawawawa!? Hajime, what on earth are you doing?

Hajime: Huh, Tori-kun?

Tori: What's up with those life-size standees of Eichi-sama and Ritsu-senpai!? You're really scaring me with how you're just cheerfully talking to them, you know?!

Hajime: Oh, these ones?

Well, I'm used to always having Eichi onii-chan and Ritsu onii-chan around, so whenever they're not here, I just can't seem to get in the mood at all…

So I had these made through a special order! Ehehe~ ♪

Tori: "Ehehe", you say…

Ah, but these look pretty well-made. How nice~ Maybe I should put one of Eichi-sama in the Student Council room too?

Hajime: If you like, Tori-kun, the Tea Club can always lend him to you.

By the way, what made you come here, Tori-kun?

Tori: Ah, that's right! I was so in shock that I forgot!

I got some rare tea leaves from Tsukasa yesterday~ Wanna have some tea together?

Hajime: Oh, is that so? I'll be happy to have tea with you~ ♪ I'll have it ready in a jiffy, so please give me a moment~

[ A few moments after ]

Tori and Hajime: *sighs happily* …….♪

Hajime: This is really fragrant~ There are a lot of other cherry blossomed-flavored teas out there, but this is surely the best one I've had to date.

Tori: I'm sooooo happy you like it, Hajime!

Mitsuru: Sniff, sniff… Hiiro-chan, it looks like the scent came from here— Huh, Hajime-chan and Hime-chan?

Hajime: Mitsuru-kun and Hiiro-kun? It seems that there are so many visitors today. Is there anything I can do for you?

Hiiro: Umu! Mitsuru-kun and I were wondering why there's a nectar-like scent wafting round and about, so we looked around together to find out!

Hajime: Nectar… Oh, maybe it's this cherry blossom tea that Tori-kun brought?

Mitsuru: Sniff, sniff… Yup, this is it! Smells soooo good!

Tori: If you guys are curious, why not come here and try it?

Mitsuru: Eh, is it really okay?! I reaaaally wanna try it now~!

Hiiro: If you two don't mind, then I'd like to try it too.

Hajime: Of course, we don't mind at all. I'll go pour you your own cups~

Fufu. If it's this lively in here, then Tea Club activities wouldn't be so lonely anymore~ ♪

Tori: If you're lonely, you know that you can always call for me, right? I'll bring you tea like this again~ And I'm sure other guys who are also free around then won't mind joining us.

Cherry blossoms may symbolize parting ways, but they can also mean new encounters!

Proofreading: Quin

TL notes:

You might be wondering why Tori has mentioned about Ritsu graduating despite them still wearing their blue neckties (2nd year). There is no confirmation if the same applies to Yumenosaki, but graduations in Japan usually happens in March while the next school year starts in April. This story most likely happened between these two periods! (Thank you Quin for pointing this out!)

This isn't the first time that Hajime has been caught interacting with life-sized standees of his senpais. See this 4-koma.

hii i was wondering if you could do regressor aira and cg rinne headcannons? platonic bee tee dubs

Eeek, sorry for taking so long..! Σ(°ロ°) Here you go!! ♪

Aira isn't the tiniest kiddo but he's not in a bigger age range either.. thinking maybe later elementary school age

Hiiro suggested that Rinne cares for him, and at first Aira was like "NO WAY! NOT HAPPENING!" but then Hiiro and Aira had a playdate with Rinne being the carer, and he just. understood then

Rinne is SUCH a gentle carer. He's super careful with his kiddos, definitely more of a big brother carer than a parent carer.

AIRA IS A CERTIFIED BABBLER. Rinne liatens and genuinely adds to the conversation 🥹

Sorry unfortunately i am a "Rinne can probably cook simple meals" truther. But Aira's a SUPER picky eater and gets fussy when there's something he doesn't like. FORTUNATELY. Kids cuisine, dino nuggets, Eggo waffles, and microwave pancakes are things. peace and love

I'd like to think Rinne is a good storyteller! Bedtime stories and just generally story time rival even Wataru's skills.. Rinne makes it interesting by doing funny voices

Aira doesn't always regress positively. Sometimes there are big emotions and he just. waaaauuugh. he just doesn't deal with them well.. luckily, Rinne is pretty good at dealing with these issues with him! He walks him through how to process and deal with all his big feelings every so often, and makes sure that Aira isn't hurt or anything

Aira's baby sensory videos are various idol recordings.. he likes the hamutaro mv a lot

Rinne cares for Hiiro and Aira, but also cares for Kohaku sometimes!!! If the three of them are together he'll watch all three of them and make sure theyre fed and all their needs are met

i seriously cannot stress enough how gentle rinne would be. he sings little songs to his littles i just KNOW IT

ough. teddy bears. lots of gifts. rinne likes spoiling his kids

“Our first song today is our brand new song for the album, Nebula.”

“This live here’s our first time ever performin’ this on stage. Did everyone like it?” 

Madara: “...Thank you so much for the huge applause! Kohaku-san and I rehearsed up 'till the very last minute ☆”

”Givin’ insider info ruins that, yanno. Anyways, just the thought o’ our very own independent live really fired me up.”

“I’m really happy to be able ta perform it once again in front of everyone, now that we’ve grown so much alongside Double Face.” 

“...Hey, Madara-han, why are you listenin’ so intently? Don’t just humor me, where's the witty commentary?"

Madara: “Hahaha! Witty commentary, huh? Well, there’s some parts I definitely want to talk about—” 

“But let’s leave that for later. First and foremost, I want everyone to hear the next song— CROSS SHINE!”

CROSS SHINE

Madara: “Did everyone enjoy CROSS SHINE? I’d like to reintroduce myself here.” 

“My name is Mikejima Madara. Normally, I’m active as the solo unit MaM—” 

“And when I team with Kohaku-san, I take on Double Face’s name.” 

“...Just a bit ago, Kohaku-san was talking about his experiences starting out with Double Face, right?” 

“I’ve aaalways worked alone by myself. It’s simply what I thought fit me the most—” 

“To think we’d release an album, and then even a celebratory live. I never imagined we’d be able to get this far.” 

“All of this is thanks to the people that needed us, every one of you that supports us.”

“Truly, thank you so much.” 

“Haha! Our live’s just starting, but the atmosphere feels so solemn now.” 

“Next up will be No name yet. These buds that have finally started to blossom— may they reach you.” 

No name yet

Kohaku: “And that was No name yet. Did our feelings reach you?” 

Madara: “How about reintroducing yourself here, Kohaku-san?” 

Kohaku: “Oh yeah, didn’t ya do that earlier? Everyone already knows, so to sum it briefly–” 

“I am Crazy:B’s Oukawa Kohaku. When I'm workin’ with Madara-han, we make up Double Face.” 

“Around the time No name yet first released, we were a real mess behind the scenes.” 

Madara: “Hahaha! It feels like we’re always a real mess whenever something happens!” 

“That time was quite hectic. Kohaku-san even ended up punching and kicking me!” 

Kohaku: “I did not kick ya. I simply gave yer abdomen a good blow ‘cause ya kept doin’ whatever ya wanted, that’s it.” 

Madara: “Ah right, it went like that. How nostalgic……☆” 

“We pray no more once on shore or whatever (*), but when I think back to everything, I realize just how many good memories have piled up.” 

“You can’t predict the future. That's exactly why it’s important to enjoy the present, right?” 

“And so, our next song will be HELLO, NEW YEAR! Let’s welcome it with our special guests ☆”

-

(*) Madara uses half of the proverb 喉元過ぎれば熱さを忘れる (one forgets the heat once it’s past the throat), which afaik has multiple equivalences (I used “once on shore, we pray no more”). Basically means once you’re past something difficult the initial suffering doesn’t matter to you anymore. 

HELLO, NEW YEAR!

Madara: “That concludes HELLO, NEW YEAR! Now it’s time for introductions! Please welcome our special guests: Arashi-san, Tsumugi-san, and Natsume-san!” 

Arashi: “Hello! How was our performance?” 

Tsumugi: “Thank you so much for having us as your guests. We had fun performing.” 

Natsume: “Farewell, everyoNE. Make sure to enjoy the live to your heart’s contENT…♪”

Madara: “You three, thank you for heating up the live with us…☆” 

“Earlier, the topic had turned quite somber. Now, I want to talk about something brighter.”

“During the MV production, I painted several pieces. The final painting, a floral piece, took a hefty amount of time to finish.”

“It took me about a week to finally be satisfied with it.” 

“Accomplished yet fatigued, I ended up dozing off while I waited for the staff. Seems like that’s when Arashi-san whipped out her phone…” 

“And just like that, it was used in the MV. Oh dear, how embarrassing ☆”

“Our next song will be Bye-Bye Buddy! Let’s start the infiltration mission……☆” 

Bye-Bye Buddy

Madara: “And that was Double Face’s Bye-Bye Buddy!” 

Kohaku: “Earlier, ya mentioned how shootin’ yer MV was a lotta work.” 

“But this MV ended up bein' just as much hard work, no?” 

Madara: “Haha, MV shoots always end up being really fun and exciting. Because I tackle them with everything I’ve got, it’s never felt laborious to me.” 

“Still, that scene where I had to drop the gun might have been just a little tough.” 

Kohaku: “Hey, at least there’s no way they’d ever actually shoot ya, right?” 

“That scene alone took up at least half the day though, didn’t it?” 

Madara: “Yep! I have nothing but gratitude towards the staff for persevering with me, as well as Kohaku-san for waiting for his turn so patiently.” 

Kohaku: “It took a lotta time ta make Bye-Bye Buddy’s MV, so it’s a rather elaborate one as well. I’d be happy if everyone would watch it over an’ over.” 

Madara: “Well then… Next up will finally be our last mission.” 

“Kimi Shirushi Be Ambitious!!, and then Stippling! Please listen to these next two songs!” 

Final

Kohaku: “That was Stippling! With this, our mission's complete.”

Madara: “To all of you in the audience! Did everyone enjoy Double Face’s solo live?”

Kohaku: “...Kokoko ♪ Thank ya kindly for the wonderful cheers an’ applause. I’ve also had a blast, I’m completely satisfied.” 

Madara: “I'd loved to have enjoyed this a bit longer, but it’s about time we part ways.” 

“Until our next order. Let’s meet again!” 

Encore

Madara: “Everyone! Thank you for calling for the emergency mission-- an encore!”

Kohaku: “Thanks to Madara-han’s cool sendoff earlier, it feels just a tad embarrassin’ steppin’ here again, though.” 

“Givin’ us an encore made me really happy. Thank you so much, everyone ♪” 

Madara: “Last up’s gotta be this song! Let’s sing this one together! Double Face’s—” 

Madara and Kohaku: “BRAND NEW STARS!!” 

Epilogue

Kohaku: Thank you for the encore! This will be the real ending to Double Face’s solo live.” 

“...I had fun all the way from the bottom o’ my heart. Thank you, Madara-han.” 

Madara: “Same to you, Kohaku-san. Thank you for running alongside me, buddy ♪” 

“I’ll pray for the day we’ll get to you see all of you again! This was Double Face’s Mikejima Madara—” 

Kohaku: “An’ Double Face’s Oukawa Kohaku! Well then~ ♪”

Madara: “Bye-byeeeeeeee…..☆”

Happiness From Love Spread Afar / Part 1 / Aira FS2

Aira Feature Scout 2 Story Translation, Part 1 | Next

Characters: Aira, Kohaku | Writer: Suika

"Eh!? T-that's not true at all!"

Season: Winter

Aira: O~i, Kohakucchi! Over here!

Kohaku: Pardon me for suddenly callin' you out, Love-han. I have some time on my hands until my next job so I was feelin' a bit bored.

Love-han, are ya really not busy?

Aira: It's all good. Today's work and lessons are over, and I was just thinking of heading back.

If anything, I'm happy that you called me out like this. I wanted to talk to you too ♪

Kohaku: It makes me happy as well to hear ya say so. Thank you, Love-han.

Aira: Ah, the always-popular window seat is open! Hooray, Kohakucchi ♪

Kohaku: Alrighty, then I'll grab us some drinks and snacks.

At any rate, today you're in a grand jolly mood. Did somethin' good happen?

Aira: Ehehe, you can tell? Actually, an idol group I've supported since their debut was selected for a release event!

Kohaku: Release event, as in the event they do when they release a new CD for sale?

Aira: Yep yep. It's an event we're very familiar with, huh?

So about this group, a year ago they were only known to a few enthusiasts.

But a little while ago, a short video they posted became trending on social media. From then on, they gained a lot of fans in one go - currently their popularity is booming!

So, the competition for this time's release event was supposed to be rough. I thought they might not be selected...

But when I checked my phone after filming just now, they won by a landslide!

My tiredness from work already went off and disappeared!

Kohaku: Well, that's wonderful. When's the release event being held?

Aira: Next weekend. I'm planning to go straight there after I finish up my work scheduled for that morning.

Why can't the day come quicker ♪ I can't wait anymore.....!

Kohaku: Kohkohkoh ♪ When I see Love-han gettin' excited, I also become happy.

Aira: If watching me makes you happy, feel free to keep watching more and more ♪

I'll share the happiness that I've received with Kohakucchi as well⭐

Kohaku: Yer mood sure is great, huh. Well, it's much better than bein' down.

...Oh, if it ain't Anzu-han. Anythin' happen?

Aira: Anzu-san. You want to talk about the "Feature Live"?

Ah! Could it be my turn next!? Is that why you called out to me?

W-what should I do? Happy things keep happening one after another today - I might've used up all my luck.

Kohaku: Yer overexaggerating, Love-han. Even so, I'm glad for you.

Aira: But a "Feature Live," huh...

That means all these fans will come to the live just to see me, huh....

Anzu-san? Am I nervous? Well, of course I am. Just by imagining it I feel like my legs are trembling!

Kohaku: Don't ya think ya don't need to be that scared? For sure, bein' alone on such a huge stage might make you feel helpless.

But I think that until now, Love-han has done a great job as an idol already.

Aira: Kohakucchi....

You're right. If this was before, I might've said "Just me alone can't deliver a successful stage"

But I'm now different from those underachiever days....Yeah, Anzu-san. I'll try my best!

I'll give the best performance so that all my fans can make the best memories of their lives!

Kohaku: Kohkohkoh. That's the spirit, Love-han ♪

Anzu-han, you'll take photos for the feature live's pamphlet, yeah?

Aira: You came to discuss candid shots with me? Uwah, uwah.....! So that's what it's gonna be about after all!

I love this concept, since you can see the expressions of idols that you can't normally see when they're being idols ⭐

"Do you already have an image of what kind of candids you want to take?" you said?

As expected of Anzu-san to see through me....Actually, I've taken some pictures that I thought would be good for this concept.

Kohaku: You've gotten around to takin' photos already, that's amazin'.

Won't ya let me see them too? I might serve as a good consultant for the shooting ♪

Aira: This is kinda embarrassing but.... s-something like this!

Kohaku: Love-han spendin' time in a stylish lil' cafe. Love-han illuminated by the sunset. And this one's Love-han walkin' under the moonlight.

Aira: "Do I also have ones that aren't selfies?" Yes, actually I received help from everyone in Alkaloid.

Kohaku: Yer right. There're some photos where your unit members show up too. Looks like fun ♪

Aira: So, how do they look? I think something like this would be good.....

"They're well taken"? "Because you understand the charm of idols well, the scenes are chosen well too"?

Ehehe~ It makes me happy to be praised by Anzu-san ♪ Then let's put this one in the pamphlet...

Eh? "Please wait a moment"?

Kohaku: ....It seems Anzu-han and I have the same opinion. These photos of yers are a bit uncanny.

Aira: ....What part was no good?

Kohaku: It's not that it wasn't good. It's just, some of em' don't feel like Love-han....

Like the photo in this cafe. This store has been trendin' on the internet recently, so it's not strange for Love-han to spend time here.

But I dunno. I jus' feel like the vibe of this photo doesn't suit Love-han.

It's like I've seen this somewhere, or like some other idol took a picture like this before....

Aira: Anzu-san? Yep. I've collected everyone else's Feature Live pamphlets, of course.

...."Could it be that you adopted the same vibe of other idols' candid shots that you used as reference"?

Er, in that case, I'll retake them....! These photos should convey my image, after all.

If I retake my photos to feel similar to this, it'll work fine for the pamphlet, right!

Kohaku: ....Isn't your demeanor a bit strange, Love-han?

Aira: Eh!? T-that's not true at all!

These are the candid shots I finally get to do, I just want my fans to be happy with them...!

Kohaku: True as that may be... wait, there's already an expression that you don't show when you're an idol, right?

See, when Love-han gets fired up talking about idols....

Aira: Uwaaaaaahhh!?

Kohaku: Y-ya surprised me! What happened!?

Aira: S-sorry! I just remembered that I have to meet up with Hiro-kun!

I've gotta go!

Kohaku: Eh, Love-han!? ....and off he goes. I wonder, did I step on some kinda landmine?

"He was acting strange"? You think so as well, Anzu-han?

He wants to hide the fact that he loves idols, huh.

But there should be fans who already know that Love-han likes idols.

I feel like there's no meaning in hidin' it at this point....is there some other reason?

Anzu-han. Could you try askin' Love-han once again?

I too am lookin' forward to Love-han's solo live. Anzu-han, I'm countin' on you.

If there's anythin' that I could help with, feel free to say so anytime. I'll lend you my strength ♪

endnotes: ik I'm inconsistent w/ how I format Kohaku's dialect but hey I think it sounds more natural this way totally not an excuse👍

Card shuffle / Episode 9

Author: Akira

Characters: Hiiro, HiMERU, Kohaku, Niki

"As you rest on the bench, it's 'me' who will step in as your pinch hitter."

← Previous ✧ Directory ✧ Next →

[ Read on my site for a better viewing experience using Ois~su ♪ ]

Season: Winter

Location: MDM Stage

Ten minutes later. After hearing explanations from AkanP, each unit holds a strategy meeting.

Hiiro: —So!

The first round of Matrix, a ten-round contest to determine the better idols between ALKALOID and Crazy:B, is about to begin!

Everyone, let's give it our all!

HiMERU: Indeed. Despite feeling quite worn out already, HiMERU will do what needs to be done as a professional.

Kohaku: I'm scared of what's to come if I defy Hiiro-han...

Niki: Spare me from going without meals~!

Hiiro: Hehe. Since the first match is about "vocal ability," it means we'll be competing in singing skills.

Kohaku: Well, that's rather cut and dried.

HiMERU: Yes. It seems to be a familiar format in ES, similar to the DreamFes setup.

Hiiro: Umu. By the way, for Crazy:B, and ALKALOID, in each showdown—

In this case, the "vocal ability" showdown, we're free to choose several "representative players" at our discretion.

Of course, these representatives will be chosen from among the members of the unit.

In our case as Crazy:B—Hm, though I'm still getting used to saying that...

At maximum, we can have four members, me, HiMERU-san, Shiina-san, and Oukawa-san, as representatives of the team.

Kohaku: Normally, there'd be no reason to hold back. It'd make more sense to go all out with the full lineup.

HiMERU: True. Our Crazy:B songs are structured on the assumption of being sung by a full group, that is, four members.

If someone is absent, the burden on the other members increases, and their stage presence worsens proportionally.

Hiiro: Umu... But Matrix has a bit of a troubling rule.

The representative who participates in one day's match can't join as a player in the next match.

So, for example, if we use the full lineup this time, in the next match, we won't have any representative players available.

Niki: What happens in that case?

Hiiro: Naturally, if there are no representative players, it seems it'll be a forfeit. We'd lose without even competing in that match.

Kohaku: Uh-huh... That's pretty wasteful.

It means we could possibly snatch victory by sendin' just one player, but without any representatives, that possibility's nil.

Hiiro: Umu. By the way, in the ten-match series—in all ten matches, the content of the match will be announced in advance.

So, if we're not confident in that day's match, we should limit the number of representative players, save them, and challenge the next match with more people—

Those are the kinds of decisions that we should make.

That's what will lead to the final victory.

HiMERU: Looking at the bigger picture, it's necessary to strategically select the representative players.

Hiiro: Umu. And ultimately, after all ten matches, the unit with the most wins becomes the overall winner of Matrix.

Kohaku: Hm, hm. In those ten matches, there'll be times when we gotta make some tough calls, like intentionally throwin' matches where it's okay to lose.

It's like baseball. If you're so fixated on winnin' that you go all out every time, you'll unwittingly concede points, and wind up losin' in the end.

Hiiro: Umu. I think that instead of focusing on immediate victories each time, we should aim for an overall—ultimate victory.

Rather, in Matrix, that kind of approach is required.

Niki: Huuh~ Seems kinda complicated!

Kohaku: Ah, eyes that threw in the towel on tryin' to understand from the get-go...!

HiMERU: That's just fine, we'll handle the difficult stuff.

Fufu. HiMERU has reconsidered that AkanP a bit. Well, Anzu-san probably came up with most of the specific details.

Yes—It's not enough for an idol to just achieve instant results.

Of course, ideally, they should succeed every time. But ultimately, they should aim for a long-term, overall victory.

Being an idol is a life-long job. It's a career, after all. In the inevitable cycle of growth and decay, there's no such thing as a flower that is always in bloom.

HiMERU: No matter how successful an idol is, a single scandal could ruin everything.

And thus, such an idol will never be regarded as exceptional.

They should bloom beautifully when the time is right and avoid errors whenever feasible, so that in hindsight, they're remembered for leading a wonderful life—

That's the kind of "overall victory" one should be aiming for.

No, that's the kind of "outstanding idol" that deserves to be etched in history.

HiMERU: (...Isn't that right, Kaname?)

(While you're sleeping, your Onii-chan will do his utmost to let the entire world know that HiMERU was "an all-around wonderful idol.")

(As you rest on the bench, it's "me" who will step in as your pinch hitter.)

Number Eight - Epilogue

Characters: Rinne, HiMERU, Kohaku & Niki Location: Number Eight Filming Studio

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ< After some time. Right before the “Number Eight” Goal Celebration Concert. >

Rinne: Looks like we’re ready for the filmin’.

We’ve reconciled with the staff, so let’s perform a song fitting for the ending of “Number Eight”!

Niki: Yeah. It’s our new song that they went through so much trouble to prepare for us.

HiMERU: “Crazy Anthem”. It’s a song that’s full of love – one that reminds us of the path we’ve walked.

Kohaku: We wouldn’t have imagined back then during “Idol Royal” that we’d now become idols who are so well-loved.

This is all thanks to our fans and the people in the entertainment industry.

HiMERU: Indeed. At the same time, we must ensure we do a good job with the song.

We’ll meet everyone’s expectations of us with the finest performance. That’s how we can repay everyone.

Isn’t that right, Amagi?

Rinne: Yup. Even the person holding up the portable shrine has the right to choose which one they want to hold up. We need to show that we’re worthy of doing that.

…And there’s another thing we should be grateful for.

HiMERU: ?

Niki: Another thing we should be grateful for…? What do you mean, Rinne-kun?

Kohaku: I want to know too. Rinne-han never fully explains anythin’. Stop beatin’ around the bush and tell us already.

Rinne: Oi, oi. Don’t be so greedy. It’s not like it’s some amazing riddle, ya know?

Uhh… How should I put this?

A lotta stuff happened in summer last year, right? It’s also the job of a ruler to reward his people.

Niki, Merumeru, Kohaku-chan. I wanna thank you guys for sticking with me despite all the trouble I got you guys in.

I know I’ve caused you guys nothing but trouble, but let’s have a great time and enjoy what the world has to offer us. Right now and in the future too – we’ll enjoy it all, the four of us, together…☆

HiMERU: Trouble? What are you saying now?

I never expected a comfortable ride in a luxury car. The ride we’ll be taking would be a broken vintage car and a bumpy road…

The drive might not be something I have control over, but it’s surprisingly interesting.

Niki: Yeah~ I don’t know how many times I got irritated on this crazy trip, but I think I’ve enjoyed this unique flavour!

Kohaku: Niki-han, you’re fine eatin’ weird food, after all. You actually like the local specialties, don’t you?

Well, it’s more or less the same for me. Whether we’re like-minded or enemies placed in the same boat, neither of those options sound half bad.

HiMERU: Alright, now that we’ve finished looking back on our trip, shall we get the cameras rolling?

HiMERU: Let’s sing of our travels thus far as we think nostalgically upon those crazy and dizzying days.

“♪~♪~”

Kohaku: “♪~♪~”

These lyrics really have a lot of thought put into them. Our “Crazy Anthem”…

…is noisy but also fun – like a lively honey bee party ♪

Niki: Nahaha. The stuff that happened this summer was so much fun that we can’t sum it up in a few words!

The sun setting on the horizon, the exciting neon night, the feast at midnight… We saw so many views.

We only got to see them because Rinne-kun stood at the front and got us involved.

The least I can do is to sing my feelings out in this song…♪

“♪~♪~”

Rinne: (Heheh! I’ve always been lucky enough to escape my troubles.)

(If I’ve got such fun people like you guys by my side, then I feel like I could go anywhere in the world.)

Rinne: Alright, it’s time for a new curtain to rise!

Idols, fans, haters – Let’s get everyone involved and singin’!

About our joyful and masterpiece of a journey that’s full of dreams…☆
