ASOOT Timeline: January 2013 (Affluent Artistry, Actually)

So I decided to get ahead of the game and finish the rest of January now, as I don’t know when I’ll be done timelining this arc. I hope this is enough to tide y'all over until I get caught up.–Timeline Anon

January 18:

During a Quantum Crew meeting at the Void Warehouse, 2030’s Mikako explains that the 2030 crew has been helping Sayaka and her group with their own missions as well. However, they’ve had to be careful to avoid the Basilisk, so they can only call one group at a time. Sayaka has had assistance from not just Kyoko, but from her bandmates (who also know about the future) and Asami.

Asami tells the group about the Nijiue charity event and what will happen there if nothing is done. It will run from January 31 to February 2, and Akemi will be found dead at 6:10 on the evening of February 2. They’ll initially rule it a suicide, but her injuries will be more consistant with a strangulation than a hanging, and that won’t be figured out until years later…and Emina will have already fled the country by then. What’s more, the charity event will be attended by Masa, her father Akira Esumi, and three people from Class 49, but no one else in the class or on the Quantum Crew. Now, Sayaka and her band are already confirmed to be there, and the current goal is to make sure that more people from both the Quantum Crew and Class 49 will be on the scene as well, acting as character witnesses and increasing the chances of saving Akemi.

In addition to convincing the rest of Class 49 to come to the charity event, the group decides to tell Makoto and Shinji about the future.

Iroha has learned that Ui is doing much better in 2030; she spent three years in the hospital, eventually went back to making art, and even reconciled with Jataro. A grown-up Jataro from 2030 also stops by to say hi to his Big Sis.

The 2030 crew don’t have many details about what will lead to the fatal confrontation between Akemi and Emina; the only ones close enough to tell them are Hitaru and Jiro, who they still can’t get in touch with. The Quantum Crew does, however, get help from a grown-up version of Chinatsu (now Chinatsu Oowada), who tells them that Akemi will probably be using the event as part of a plan to escape and expose the Nijiue parents, which will cause the argument and her subsequent death. Iroha decides to meet up with her siblings and try to coordinate this plan together. It’s mentioned that as long as the group doesn’t make their presence too obvious, the Basilisk will probably overlook it, as it’s still too busy attacking 2030. Everyone rallies behind Iroha and commits themselves to saving the Nijiue siblings.

2030’s Mikako’s precog powers have evolved beyond those of her 2013 counterpart, allowing her to see much farther into the future with minimal headaches and no nosebleeds. Not only has she used this to avoid a few disasters for the Quantum Crew, but she’s also seen as far ahead as August 2070. That’s how she knows that the Holy Salvation Society will recruit Masa’s granddaughter Maki…and kill the rest of her family in order to do so. Nikei is shocked, since although he was jealous of Masa, he never wanted her dead, and he agrees to investigate the cult. It’s also revealed that Kaede Akamatsu is Sayuri’s daughter and Hajime and Hibiki’s granddaughter, Kirumi Tojo is Nikei and Akane’s granddaughter, Kaito Momota is Kaori’s son and Sunako’s grandson, and Shuichi Saihara and Angie Yonaga are the grandchildren of Class 49 members Yuka Kurosaki and Mio Yonaga respectively. If Tsumugi isn’t stopped, she’ll do serious harm to them and others.

As the 2030 group signs off, Harumi hopes that this mission can be a chance to see Sakura Sakura again, while Nikei plans to get in touch with the Class 49 members who wouldn’t be coming otherwise. Iroha pulls Nikei aside and asks him (and the other Voids) not to go with her to the actual charity event, as this is something she needs to do on her own. She doesn’t think he can put his personal feelings aside, and she wants to not just bring her parents to justice, but also make up for her own mistakes. He grumbles a bit, but admits that she’s right and agrees not to go. But he’ll still help with the investigation, and he’ll be there if she needs him.

Iroha calls Hitaru to tell her of the plan and arrange a meeting with her, the rest of the group sets out to find Class 49, and the mission to save the Nijiue siblings officially begins.

January 20:

Iroha and Emma go to the Ginza District to meet up with Hitaru at a sushi place called Shimada’s. Hitaru treats the girls to sushi. She’s been busy with lots of work to get ready for the charity event; her parents are basically making her do all the preparations in order to teach her “responsibility” for once she finds a husband and takes over the family (not that Hitaru is interested in marrying, but there have been talks of an arranged marriage). It seems that the Nijiues want to improve their public image with this event. Iroha tells Hitaru about the plan to get Class 49 to come and back them up at the event, and she tells them about what said class is like as well. An excited Hitaru agrees to invite all the ones who weren’t already invited.

It’s confirmed by Hitaru that Sayaka convinced the Nijiues to let her perform at the charity event in exchange for a huge donation. Furthermore, the fact that all invitees to the charity event can bring a plus-one was Akemi’s idea.

Hitaru feels guilty for not doing enough to save her siblings, and Iroha feels guilty for leaving her siblings behind and not even considering them until recently. Emma tells them both that they should stop beating themselves up over their past mistakes and focus on what they can do in the here and now. The sisters apologize to each other and share a hug.

After Hitaru fills the girls in on what the charity event will be like and the kind of people who will be there, she mentions that most of the guests will be staying at the Grand Nikko Tokyo Daiba hotel, including the Nijiue siblings and Sayaka and her band. Hitaru will let Iroha borrow her key card to coordinate with everyone, although it’s agreed that she should wear a disguise. With that settled, they all have a nice meal together.

Later, after saying an emotional goodbye to Hitaru, Iroha cries to Emma that Hitaru should’ve gotten Divine Luck instead of her. She’s also worried about how she’s going to tell the truth to Makoto and whether or not she would actually make a good mother so soon. All she wants is for her family to be okay. Emma assures her that she’s doing her best to fix things now, that it’s best to ease Makoto into the news, and that Makoto won’t hate her for not telling him the truth as soon as she could’ve. She also tells her that she’s glad she got Divine Luck and that she loves and forgives her for everything. They hug and then go get ice cream.

January 21:

Nikei, Mahiru, and Harumi go to the Red Ribbon Fashion Building in Harajuku to speak with Sakura Fushimi (hereinafter referred to as Fushimi). It seems that Fushimi has been doing well for herself (she’s the founder and CEO of the Red Ribbon fashion company) and regrets the way she used to be; she happily reunites with Harumi, offers fashion advice to Nikei, and catches up on Hitoshi’s condition from Mahiru. When they tell her about Emina’s crimes, she agrees to come to the charity event and make her old nemesis pay. She’ll even make a disguise for Iroha.

Fushimi mentions that Harumi used to be a junior forensic investigator, and a highly skilled one at that, even getting the nickname “The Greyhound” from the police. She thinks Hope’s Peak should’ve let her into the Main Course, but Harumi brushes it off.

As it turns out, Fushimi knows Sakura Sakura’s location, and although the latter no longer goes by that name, she’s doing much better now. Fushimi will talk to her on the group’s behalf and ask for her help. The group also gets Fushimi’s phone number for future coordination.

Privately, Nikei tells Mahiru that he thinks it’s fishy that Harumi was apparently such a good forensic investigator and yet was never an Ultimate. The two of them decide to look further into it.

In the evening, Iroha goes over to the Naegis’ house. The Naegis are doing all right, although Komaru spilled a ton of soda in the kitchen because she was mad at Makoto for drinking it. Iroha pulls Makoto aside once he’s done studying and tells him the truth about time travel, the Tragedy, and so on. Even after taking a moment to process it, Makoto can’t believe that he really saved the world and became the Ultimate Hope, but Iroha assures him that he had friends to help him. She apologizes for not telling him sooner, and she admits that she was a criminal in the Tragedy timeline. Makoto easily forgives her and agrees to help her. In return, she tells him that they’re married in the good 2030 future and that she fell in love with him because of who he is now, not who he is in the future. She spends the night at his house.

January 22:

At the Void Warehouse, Nekomaru, Kazuichi, and Nikei overhear Kenji and Erina having a flirtatious conversation. The boys speculate on whether or not they might end up in a relationship, and Nekomaru and Nikei give Kazuichi advice regarding his own problems with Ayumi. Kazuichi doesn’t initially think his dad will get into another relationship after his terrible marriage with his stalker-turned-wife-turned-ex, but he is quickly proven wrong when Kenji and Erina agree to go on a date. Much congratulations and hugging ensue.

Nikei admits to Erina that he’s stressed out about the situation with the Nijiues, worried about whether he might lose Iroha when she goes back to her siblings, and also a bit jealous that he doesn’t have a family of his own. Erina assures her that she and Nekomaru will be there for him. Nikei thinks that Erina’s what a mom should be like, and Erina even offers to adopt him, although he says he’s got stuff he needs to work out first.

Kazuichi advises Kenji not to “do something stupid” and jump straight into things with Erina, but to get to know her first. Kenji apologizes to Kazuichi for the times when he was too hard on him, but Kazuichi says he’s over it and that it all seems petty compared to the possible end of the world.

Emma, curious about her future family, walks in on Kyoji talking to 2030’s Mikako. She asks if she will ever get married or have kids in the future. Mikako tells her that she will marry an up-and-coming actor named Steve Young, and while the marriage won’t last, they will have a child together: Whitley Young, aka Whit, who is 3 years old in 2030. Emma also asks about Maku and is reassured to hear that (although he’s had stints in the hospital thanks to long-term complications) he’s doing better in the future and is still close with the other Voids and their families. He’s even had optic surgery to improve his vision. Emma cries of happiness and thanks Mikako profusely, but Mikako just considers it payback after what they did to help her in 2012.

Mikako tells Kyoji and Emma about Trans-Time Identities (TTIs), which are when the same person exists in multiple timelines, but with different times, different identities, and different roles. Through this, Kyoji has found out that Himari’s position in time is the same throughout multiple timelines, and it’s subsequently revealed that she is Peko’s birth mother, who gave baby Peko away to protect her from the Holy Salvation Society. Peko’s birth father is the now-deceased politician Masayoshi Fujimura. Kyoji wants to repay Himari for what she did for him by reuniting her with her daughter and saving them both from the Holy Salvation Society. Mikako advises them to not tell Peko and Fuyuhiko about this yet, out of concern that Toshiro might interfere, but apparently there will be a “change in leadership” in the Kuzuryu Clan soon that will clear the way.

The group continues to prepare for the charity event. Mikako mentions that Sayaka and her allies will want to collaborate with the Quantum Crew, and that it’s best if they all work together.

Nikei, Mahiru, and Harumi go to Asunaro High to find Sakura Arima (hereinafter referred to as Arima) in the gym alongside her daughter Ayumi and her star athlete, one Aoi Asahina. Arima recognizes Harumi and is happy to see her again. Introductions are had, and everyone goes to Arima’s office to discuss the charity event. Arima has already heard the details from Fushimi and eagerly agrees to help. (She also tells Nikei that he should exercise more often.) Ayumi will also help out, and Nikei and Mahiru advise her to clear things up with Kazuichi when she sees him again.

Arima tells Nikei and Mahiru about the time that Harumi single-handedly solved their middle school teacher’s murder. Harumi doesn’t really want to talk about it, as she doesn’t think she was good enough for Hope’s Peak, and when Nikei presses further into the suspicious circumstances, she tells him to drop it.

Aoi mentions that Sayaka, who is her friend, will be at the event; she knows several people from Class 78, and it’s all but stated that she knows the future and is part of Sayaka’s group to change it.

Privately, Arima tells Nikei that she thinks the fact that Harumi didn’t get into the Main Course to be extremely fishy, especially since she saw Hope’s Peak scouts talking to Harumi a few times. She suggests that Nikei talk to Harumi’s mother about it. Nikei, now more suspicious than ever, relays this information to Mahiru, who mentions that Hitoshi never really felt accepted at Hope’s Peak and only got his acceptance letter a month before Class 49 actually started. All this, combined with the fact that Emina got in the Main Course despite her lackluster skills and erased all traces of her past, leads Nikei and Mahiru to believe a conspiracy is afoot regarding Class 49.

January 23:

Iroha, Maku, and Setsuka go to Shinji’s house to meet up with a few members of Class 49 and ask for their help. They meet Shinji first, and it doesn’t take long for him and Maku to hit it off (again). Also present at the meeting are Kyoka, Yuka Saihara, Goro Hirabayashi, Ichiro Kashiki, Mio Yonaga, and Biju Hadoka.

Although Kyoka has already told her classmates the important details, it ultimately falls to Iroha to make a plea for everyone’s assistance. She talks about the way her parents treated her and her siblings, and begs for Class 49’s help to save her siblings and expose her parents once and for all. Upon hearing that their old classmate has sunk so low as to be capable of killing her own children, everyone from Class 49 agrees to bring her down. Everyone goes off to make calls, while a proud (if slightly sad) Maku tells Iroha that he’ll always be there for her if she needs him.

January 24:

After getting the news from Maku that Emina’s former classmates are on board to defeat her, Nikei, still hot on the trail of the Class 49 conspiracy, goes with Mahiru to Hajime’s house to ask where Harumi’s mother lives. Fortunately, Hiroshi knows that she lives only a few blocks away, and so he and Hajime go with Nikei and Mahiru to her house. When they get there, they meet Harumi’s mother, Hitomi Nanami, just in time to witness her kill a spider with a makeshift flamethrower. Hitomi, herself the former Ultimate Teacher of Class 22 and a former member of the Ministry of Education at Hope’s Peak (although she was not allowed to be on the Steering Committee due to her gender), tells the group that Harumi was involved in 150 investigations in only 3 years and that her rejection from the Main Course was no accident. The school itself transitioned from a publicly-funded institution to a privately-funded one shortly after Class 49’s graduation, coinciding with Japan’s economic rise and fall. As for Emina, no one could find anything about her past, and she couldn’t keep her story straight, but any records on why she got a spot in the Main Course and Harumi didn’t are likely long gone. Hitomi also tells the group about the Reserve Course’s origins and the Quiet Revolt of 1991, while Hiroshi offers to help her dig up old records to figure out this mystery.

Hajime asks Hitomi about her relationship with Chiaki, and Hitomi admits to being worried about her granddaughter’s issues regulating her emotions and communicating with people. She advises Hajime to make sure Chiaki fully understands all this so she can see things from others’ perspectives.

After their visit with Hitomi, the group decides that the next thing to do is to get the aforementioned records. Mahiru suggests getting Masa’s help, as well as that of the Nijiue siblings, and tells Nikei that he might’ve exposed a decades-old conspiracy and thus shouldn’t be so insecure about this.

That evening, at the Void Warehouse, the Quantum Crew updates the 2030 gang on what’s going on. Asami is shocked and immediately informs her father, 2030’s Tsurugi, about this. Meanwhile, Mizuki shows up, and after Nikei meets his future daughter, she tells the group that it’s possible that all the criminals the Quantum Crew have had to deal with are an unintentional consequence of the Hitaru-Emina conspiracy. Tsurugi elaborates on this, saying that the police force in the Quantum Crew’s time is not as technologically advanced as they should be, and that this stagnation is why it couldn’t handle many of the cases that have come up. Had Harumi been accepted to Hope’s Peak, she could’ve brought much-needed reform to the force.

Iroha decides to break into her family’s house in order to get the records they need to figure out the truth about Harumi, Emina, and Hope’s Peak. She’s also willing to recruit Makoto and Masa to help her with said break-in. Nikei, who still has issues with Masa, asks Sunako why she believes in the 76 Squad so much, and Sunako promises to explain once the charity event is over. All she reveals at this time is that Masa helped her family when they needed it most.

The Basilisk is still causing trouble in 2030. Just in case it shows up in 2013 again, Kazuichi has used what he learned from the Sunny Days cloaking devices to give Sora thermal vision. Maku tests it out by using a cloaking device to turn invisible, and Sora can see him the entire time. She’s even got a cloaking device of her own. Also, her legal details are now in order, so her status as Sora Taira is official.

Other than the upcoming break-in, the preparations for the charity event are complete. Asami will notify Sayaka’s group as soon as she can. Mizuki is also planning to go find 2030’s Hitaru and Jiro and convince them to come to the Kisaragi Foundation. With that, the 2030 crew signs off, and the Quantum Crew goes their separate ways.

Chiaki, determined to help her mother and still kicking herself for not knowing her as well as she thought she did, tries to talk with Harumi about the Class 49 conspiracy, but Harumi asks Chiaki to drop the topic. Not only is she upset that Chiaki never seemed interested in her life until now, she’d also rather not talk about something that only makes her feel inadequate. Chiaki then goes to Tenmei, who is far more interested in figuring out why his wife did not become an Ultimate, especially since that rejection took such a dent out of her self-esteem. He suggests that Hanami Watanabe could help them get dirt on Emina, and so the two of them decide to take a trip tomorrow to see her. Chiaki also decides to talk to Hanami about her life and learn more about her once this is all over.

January 25:

Hitaru, Jiro, and Akemi take breakfast with their parents, Emina and Ayato Nijiue, although they are only allowed to eat for 22 minutes exactly, and it’s a very light breakfast at that (Emina believes that too much filling food before an event is unhealthy). Emina is also planning to possibly set Hitaru up with a well-known artist by the name of Kota Hashimoto; today, they’ll be meeting with him, alongside other prominent artists and representatives from the Tokyo Museum of Art. She considers her children as nothing more than assets.

Hitaru gets a call from Iroha, who asks for help with the break-in, and Hitaru tells her all about the updates to the Nijiue security system that have occurred since Iroha left. When Iroha says that she can do the break-in tonight, Hitaru says that she’ll keep the family out of the house for as long as she can.

Hitaru feigns enthusiasm for the networking sessions in front of her parents, then privately tells Jiro and Akemi about Iroha’s planned break-in. Akemi, meanwhile, asks if they’ll meet with Sayaka and her band at some point, which prompts some disparaging remarks about idols from the parents, but Hitaru gets them to agree to let Akemi meet with the band in place of Emina. Although Hitaru has a moment of doubt where she worries that Iroha��s plan might not work, she ultimately decides to take a stand against her parents and believe in her sister.

Iroha goes to see Masa (whose address she got from Mikan), tells her about her family problems, and asks for her help with the break-in. It turns out that Masa is also suspicious of Emina’s history, so she’s very much down to help. She will also get Iroha everything she needs to pull this off.

Next, Iroha visits Makoto at his house; she finds him pet-sitting his neighbor’s cat with Tamami. After a brief chat with her about their future in Class 78-A and seeing Sayaka again, Makoto goes off with Iroha to privately discuss the break-in plan, which he readily agrees to. They will go around midnight. Tamami, who doesn’t know what they’re doing but trusts them anyway, agrees to stay at Makoto’s house and watch the cat.

It’s mentioned that Komaru is currently seeing a college student named Kohei Matsudaira. Makoto has some concerns about it, but Komaru has repeatedly insisted she’ll be okay.

Chiaki and Tenmei take a train to Miyagi to see Hanami Sato (formerly Watanabe). She serves them tea and tells them that back in the 1980s, the culture of Hope’s Peak was a lot more demanding, competitive, and cutthroat than it is now. Ultimates were under pressure to not only represent their fields, but also their families, and arranged marriages such as the short-lived engagement between Tenmei and Hanami were part of that. This makes Emina’s tight-lipness regarding her past even stranger in hindsight. Harumi speculates that Emina getting in over Harumi might’ve been the result of a business deal, but she can’t say for sure, nor does she know why Harumi was still able to attend the Reserve Course despite all this. Also, Chiaki’s great-grandmother was the first ever female Ultimate, and Tenmei once worked with the U.S. government. Chiaki is awed to learn so much about her family’s accomplishments. Tenmei thanks her for doing so much to help her mother and reminds her not to beat herself up over not reaching out sooner.

January 26:

At midnight, Makoto and Iroha sneak out, take the late-night bus to Azabu Gardens (with Sora in tow over AI), and meet the 76 Squad at the Nijiue house. Estu distracts the guards by faking a heart attack (Kanata is in the know and sends help for her when called, and said help includes Kyoji in his efforts to make things right with Estu), allowing Iroha, Makoto, and Masa to sneak into the house via climbing a tree and then ziplining through the window with a makeshift zipline Mayumi creates out of a metallic chord and an arrow. Once inside, they disguise themselves with masks (Makoto’s is a frog mask) while Sora hacks the cameras and motion sensors. The group lockpicks their way into Ayato and Emina’s room, find their safe hidden behind a painting, and discover many counterfeits of paintings painted by the Nijiue siblings. It turns out that Ayato and Emina are planning to sell the counterfeits. Iroha has a breakdown, blaming herself for leaving her siblings behind and resenting them for being allowed to go outside, and calls herself a shitty sister. Masa and Makoto point out that if Iroha hadn’t left, she wouldn’t be in a position to save her siblings and learn everything she now knows about her parents. This makes Iroha feel better.

Iroha and Makoto check the closet, and after much searching and a lucky hunch from Makoto, they find the documents they need: the Class 49 student registry, along with two more pages of additional notes. Masa takes pictures of the documents, and the trio begins to make their escape…only to be interrupted by an incoming call from Emina on the wall phone. Makoto impulsively answers the phone and pretends to be a guard, which somehow works. It seems that Hitaru’s delays have paid off, and the Nijiues won’t be home till about an hour before dawn. The group, blessed by such a lucky break, quickly leaves the Nijiue house the same way they came in.

At the hospital, Kyoji and Estu talk, and Estu admits that it’s good to see him again. She also requests that he look into therapy.

Masa drives Makoto and Iroha back home. They thank her, Makoto kisses Iroha goodbye and promises to be there for her tomorrow, and Masa tells Iroha that she will take the document pictures back to her place to see what they say. She asks if she has Iroha’s permission to share whatever information she finds with the staff of Hope’s Peak (minus the Steering Committee). Iroha tells her that Yoruko and Kokoro can be trusted with the information. After Masa leaves, Sora encourages Iroha, telling her that she’s grown up a lot.

January 28:

Nikei, after grilling Iroha about whether or not she and her group were careful during the break-in, admits that he’s still not comfortable with their decision to work with the 76 Squad and hates the idea of Masa having the information. He wants to know why Sunako trusts Masa so much and plans to ask her after the event. Iroha assures him that Masa didn’t ask any favors of the group and that there are no signs she’ll sell them out; she also points out that if not for him, none of this would’ve been possible in the first place.

Kyoji tells everyone about his talk with Estu, and they all agree that he does, in fact, need therapy.

Yoruko reads the Class 49 registry (courtesy of Masa) and reveals its contents to the rest of the Quantum Crew: Ayato was supposed to be the Ultimate Artist, but chose not to attend, and donated money to the school so that Emina (then Emina Sato) could be the Ultimate Artist instead. As a result, Hiroshi was added to the class as the Ultimate Construction Worker at the last minute, and Harumi’s place in the class as the Ultimate Forensic Scientist was denied to her, all because of the Nijiues. The Quantum Crew is absolutely furious to hear this, and Iroha vows to make her parents pay.

Upon hearing the news, Chiaki and Mahiru are angry and sad, and Chiaki punches a dumpster for five minutes straight. Mahiru also feels bad about how she viewed her father in the past. They agree that their parents and Class 49 needs to know about this as soon as possible. Sora, however, points out that if they go public with this now, they’ll get hit with dozens of lawsuits, and the Steering Committee will work to make sure it all stays under wraps. Nikei suggests that as they expose the Nijiues at the event, they have Sora leak all the data, put it on everyone’s phones, and credit Kasugano for it. Sora’s unsure at first, but after a pep talk and a kiss from Yoruko, she decides to do it.

January 29:

At Ibuki’s house, Class 49 is informed of the awful truth about the Nijiues, Harumi, and Hitoshi. They are all just as angry as the Quantum Crew, if not more so. Harumi and Hitoshi show up late, and at first, Harumi is angry at Chiaki, Nikei, and the rest of the Quantum Crew for rooting around in her past after she asked them not to. But once she finds out the truth, she is shocked, angry, and also somewhat relieved to learn she wasn’t “not good enough” like she thought. She vows revenge on the Nijiues and leaps on board the plan to take them down.

The plan the Quantum Crew and Class 49 come up with is as follows:

Harumi calls Fushimi to let her know what happened and that she’s in. Fushimi then updates Arima.

Tenmei calls Emina, claiming that Harumi can’t come to the charity event and that he’s bringing Chiaki instead. Emina says that’s fine.

On the day of the charity event, Chiaki and Mahiru will go with Tenmei and Hitoshi respectively. Then, Harumi will go with Shinji as a surprise for Emina. Fushimi will also bring Sakura Sakura.

While she distracts her, Iroha and Makoto will meet up with Sayaka and her bandmates, and they’ll all get in close so that they can help Iroha’s siblings. Their goal is to get Emina to confess in front of everyone.

January 31:

The morning of the charity event, Makoto gets dressed in a suit provided to him by Fushimi, and Tamami, who’s staying with Komaru to keep pet-sitting, blushes and compliments him on how nice he looks. Komaru’s a bit sour because Kohei Matsudaira stood her up and canceled on her, but other than that, everyone’s excited. Iroha arrives, has a nosebleed over Makoto’s outfit, and goes to change into her disguise while Makoto fills Komaru and Tamami in on the basics of their mission to stop the criminal Nijiue parents. Iroha’s outfit proves to look amazing on her; she’s going by the fake name “Seiko Kujo” for the event, while Makoto is going by “Sadao Naegi.”

Iroha and Makoto arrive at Tokyo Big Sight at 11:55, as do Chiaki and Tenmei. As Iroha and Makoto sneak in through the back, Makoto wonders why he’s so important to the future, as he doesn’t see himself as anything special. Iroha herself doesn’t know why she got Divine Luck instead of her siblings, who she feels deserve it more, but she tells Makoto that what matters is that they’re here and ready to make the necessary changes. Meanwhile, Chiaki and Tenmei sign in via Hitaru, meet Emina, and promptly get an earful from her about their life choices. She even openly speculates that Chiaki is actually the result of Tenmei cheating on Harumi with Hanami, a theory which the Nanamis shut down. Fortunately, Tenmei manages to convince Emina to let Hitaru have a break from signing people in, and he and Chiaki privately assure Hitaru that they have a plan.

At the VIP table, Chiaki and Tenmei meet up with Ichiro and his daughter Suzuko Kashiki, Yuka and her nephew Taro, and the Miodas. Nearby, Akemi regales her fans with stories. Hitaru pulls her aside and asks about Sayaka and her bandmates, and it turns out that Akemi had Jiro carry their bags and placed the band’s hotel rooms not far from theirs so that they can coordinate with them. She’s also really hit it off with Rumi Shinabe, one of the band members.

Goro and Hanami arrive along with his daughter and her husband. While greeting them, Emina mentions that she wants to discuss something with Hanami, who immediately figures out that it’s about Chiaki. She and Tenmei are both prepared.

As time goes by more guests arrive: Mio, Biju, and Hitoshi along with Mahiru. Hitoshi immediately starts sassing back at Emina’s attempts to be rude to him, just like old times. After him, Arima and Ayumi arrive, and Arima’s presence pisses Emina off slightly further.

Shinji and Fushimi show up, and initially Emina is so angry that she doesn’t even want to let Fushimi in, but Fushimi secures her place at the event with a donation of 150 million yen. Then, as Emina starts loudly badmouthing Harumi, she is shocked to see that very same Harumi is here as Shinji’s guest. Harumi immediately puts a furious Emina in her place and shows the DNA test that proves that Chiaki is her child. Emina can’t even yell back at her because of Akira Esumi’s presence. Finally, the last guest makes her entrance, one Sakura Sakura…or, as she now calls herself, Kasumi Ouma. She’s spent the last thirty years improving herself, and now, she’s ready to catch up with everyone. Emina is so spooked that has to step outside in order to get some air.

Akira and Masa interview everyone in Class 49 at the VIP table. It seems that Kasumi’s parents disowned her after her expulsion, and she had a wake-up call and, thanks to Fushimi, decided to turn her life around. She has since earned two master’s degrees in psychology and counseling, and now she’s a therapist who aspires to help other Hope’s Peak graduates and drop-outs who need it. Also, she’s married and has a 19-year-old son of her own, named Hirota. She and the other Sakuras apologize to their old classmates for how they treated them at school, and everyone accepts their apology, even a reluctant Emina.

After Kasumi reveals that she’s bisexual and once dated a girl, Emina responds with her story of how she and Ayato met: she used to paint in a field with a large pond, and while she was painting there one day, he stopped by and told her she had magnificent brushwork. They were engaged not long after. Emina also claims that she’s putting on this event to raise 5 million yen for charity. She personally believes that adversity and competition is the key to growth, and follows Hegelian Dialectics.

When Emina leaves to take care of business, Hitaru breaks down and begs everyone to save her and her siblings. They hug her and assure her that it’s not her fault and that they are here to help. Masa and Akira agree to interview her about what she’s been through. Hitaru suddenly faints from overwork, and Hibito takes care of her while everyone else gets to work.

Chiaki, Masa, and Mahiru find Iroha and Makoto, who have successfully infiltrated the event after finding the maintenance door already unlocked. As Mahiru goes looking for Jiro, the rest of the group discusses Emina’s awfulness, Masa is convinced that the story of how the Nijiues met is definitely fake, and Makoto thinks about how this will be the first time he’s seen Sayaka since middle school. Jiro arrives with Ayato, and Iroha is so nervous that she’s visibly shaking, but Makoto covers for her by saying that she’s shy. Ayato feels like he’s seen her before, and thankfully, Biju and Fushimi tell him that Iroha is Fushimi’s star model and Biju’s plus-one, which explains it for him. Everyone is relieved, although Jiro takes a second to realize that “Seiko Kujo” is Iroha.

Sayaka and her bandmates finally arrive on the scene, and after a brief introduction by Akemi, they declare that they’re available for requests. While Rumi and Akemi sit together, the Quantum Crew (plus a very nervous Makoto) finally meets Sayaka and her friends. They exchange pleasantries, Makoto and Sayaka hit it off just like old times, and a meeting is arranged for 7 PM at Sayaka’s hotel room.

At 6:55 PM, the first day of the charity event ends, and the Quantum Crew splits up. Chiaki goes to see Masa, Mahiru goes to talk to her dad, and Makoto and Sayaka go to see Sayaka. Rumi, Ayaka Haneyama, and Minami Fujita ask Makoto if he holds grudges, and he says no. Upon hearing this, Sayaka breaks down, hugs Makoto, and apologizes profusely for what she did to him in the Tragedy timeline. Once Makoto calms her down enough to speak coherently, she tells the story of their killing game, of how she was so worried for her career and her band’s safety that she betrayed Makoto, tried to kill Leon, and was herself killed in the process. She knows that she made a terrible, awful decision and insists that she never wanted to hurt Makoto; she truly did care for him and wanted to get to know him better. Makoto, who’s never experienced any of this but understands that it’s still real to Sayaka, isn’t mad and forgives her easily.

Sayaka and her bandmates have wanted to contact the Quantum Crew for a while, but haven’t done it before now because of scheduling issues. The reason Sayaka’s signal kept going back and forth was because of the drive between her house and their practice/recording sessions. However, they have accomplished their own missions while the world was focused on Kasugano, including saving Daiya and trying to get rid of weapons with acid (only to break the bathtub in the process). They have help from Kyoko, Aoi, and Byakuya (the latter’s help they got with the help of 2 billion yen) and even hired someone to drive a submarine during the Sunny Days incident. Their advice for the Quantum Crew is to pace themselves and take breaks when they need to. The group breaks for the night, and Makoto and Sayaka agree to talk more tomorrow.

Iroha briefly worries to Makoto about what might happen legally after her siblings are saved, but Makoto assures her that he and everyone else will support her no matter what.

Elsewhere, Masa and Akira tell the Nanamis that the story of how Emina met Ayato can’t possibly be true. They also mention that when Ayato was 14, his father was murdered by a burglar, and Harumi investigated and solved the case. It’s speculated that this might have something to do with why the Nijiues stole Harumi’s spot. Harumi wants to talk to Emina tomorrow to see if she can get anything out of her, while Masa and Akira will do the same with Ayato, and Chiaki will rally her classmates and peers to help.

//We have a new summary, now of January!

Two Truths, One Lie…

Okay, it appears some are interested, so let’s get started with our game of “Two Truths, One Lie”

You give me a character from this blog, and I’ll give you two truths about what will happen to them, and one lie. Thing is though, you don’t know which is which. Here are the rules:

1. You can only send one ask for a character. Don’t overboard and have one ask for like 30 characters here. C’mon, be fair. That said; if you do want to know about another character, just send another ask. Simple as that.

2. I will allow you to ask for characters who have not appeared yet. But, they must have been mentioned before hand. For example; Kaede will not appear for a good while, but she was mentioned by some askers. So you can ask about her. Understand?

That said, here are the characters that have been mentioned: Kaede Akamatsu, Shuichi Saihara, Kokichi Ouma, Korekiyo Shinguuji, Kirumi Tojo, Kiibo, Hibiki and Kanade Otonokoji, Yuri Kagarin, Shinji Kasai, Yoruko Kabuya, Tsurugi Kinjo, Rei Mekaru, Teruya Otori, Ayumu Fujimori, Nikei Yomiuri, Emma Magarobi, Hajime Makunouchi, Iroha Nijiue

I think that covers everything, so with that out of the way. Let’s play!

Note

We know of a few members of Class 49 in some timelines, like Chiaki's father being in it, Ibuki's mother and Mahiru's dad. But given the nature of this world I have a strong suspision some of those members either don't exist due to their parents being killed during Operation Downfall, barred due to the racist backwards nature of this country, and we know one of them is 100% dead due to the Commies.

Well, we certainly know plenty about Chaiki's parents, Ibuki's mom, and... Dad. However, according to the Hope's Peak Hall of Fame, a part of the school dedicated to some of the most talented individuals in the history of Hope's Peak Academy, they have a large portion of the hallway dedicated to Class 49 and their accomplishments.

Here are the other members of the Class, at least from what little information I got from the descriptions of their biographies.

_____________________________________________________

Akamatsu Kyoka- Ultimate Vocalist

As we all are familiar with already, this is Ibuki's mom, who used to go by the name of Sylilla Romazaki, the infamous leader of the teenage rock band "Model Notes" during the 1970s and 1980s. When she graduated, she decided to retire from the music industry and married a doctor named Mioda Hibito. She's really kindhearted and genuine, and I can definitely see why Ibuki takes inspiration from her, in more ways than one.

Shinji Kasai- Ultimate Firefighter

Best friends with Nanami Tenmei from their high school years, who took time off from school due to complications with chronic back pain due to an injury he suffered, so he's older than most of the people there. Still, he's got a good career on his shoulders, as he's working as a security guard but still has ties to the fire department and he's married with three kids. He's pretty loud, but he's a decent guy and contributes greatly to making the community a safer place.

Hanami Watanabe- Ultimate Botanist

A talented expert in the field of botany, she was supposedly Tenemi's ex-fiance, and it was rumored that they had an arranged marriage. Despite possesing an absolutely uncanny and similar resemblance to Chiaki, she was a really nice girl but could be really savage when it came to her comebacks. According to the description, she's Sato Hanami now, and she and her husband now operate a curry shop.

Mio Yonaga- Ultimate Otokoyaku

An incredibly talented stage actress who infamously crossdressed as men and was the definition of a class clown who enjoyed a light-hearted atmosphere. She's known for having a usually upbeat and optimistic outlook on life and is a rather playful person to interact with. She and her husband live in Okinawa and is considered to be one of the shining beacons of the class.

Biju Hakoda- Ultimate Hiker

The former Ultimate Hiker, with a passion for exploring the outdoors, from the jungles of the Amazon to the mountaintops and forests of the Great Smoky Mountains in Tennessee, to the safaris in Africa. Generally a calm and passive person, yet a man of very few words during his time in Hope's Peak, he's also half Indian on his mother's side, which has resulted in him having to live in exile from the country and become ashamed upon by the rest of the public due to his race and ethnicity

Goro Hirabayashi- Ultimate Glassmaker

He's the former Ultimate Glassblower, which is basically having to inflate molten gas into a bubble with the aid of blowpipes. Not really much is known about him other than the fact that he's the only confirmed member of Class 49 who has no known information about his whereabouts, which is honestly really strange.

Yuka Kurosaki- Ultimate Saxophonist

An expert in the field of playing saxophones, and was apparently the best friend of Kyoka Mioda in school! A really skilled musician too, upbeat, optimistic, and full of energy and soul, and has numerous good qualities to say about her. She has two kids and is still using her married name, Saihara Yuka, despite the recent divorce she endured.

Ichiro Kashiki- Ultimate Geologist

An incredibly tired man who spent most of his time working and assisting with mining operations and other geological studies. Despite the fact that he was actually asleep in class, he eventually became an activist for environmental rights and the preservation of valuable mining resources and has a daughter who is part of the Student Council, from what I heard.

Sakura Chigusa- Ultimate Cheerleader

The former Ultimate Cheerleader, and one of Nanami Harumi's best friends. She was incredibly popular, friendly, kindhearted, sociable, kinda an airhead, and a bit judgemental about boys. From what the tidbits say, she's a P.E. teacher now, and a vocal activist for equal rights for women, which has landed her into some complicated and tight controversy.

Sakura Fushimi- Ultimate Fashion Designer

Basically the definition of the mean girl stereotype, she is really short-tempered and always lashes out at others out of fury. However, she seemed to get better as of late and is widely considered by some to be the best Gyaru of her generation. Even after she left Hope's Peak, she still holds a job as a professional designer, so she's doing better for herself.

Sakura Sakura- Ultimate Model

And here's the one I know the least about. Despite her being the Ultimate Model, she was probably the biggest jerk in Class 49, messing with people and making fun of them, getting people to do her homework, and committing all kinds of crazy pranks all across the academy. The worst one was when she actually tried to blow up a statue in front of the school, along with Fushimi and Chigusa, and it ended up leading to them getting expelled. Strangely, like Goro, Sakura disappeared during the incident and nobody's heard anything from her ever since.

Wow... so this is everyone.

I wouldn't exactly say that this is everyone since my dad was originally part of the class as the Ultimate Construction Worker, he's not even mentioned in the Class 49 section at all. Honestly, I have a gut feeling in my heart as to why he's not in the Hall of Fame of Ultimates.

Even if that's the case, it doesn't make all that much sense to me when you take into consideration that Biju is in the Hall of Fame despite being half-Indian. So by the logical stances of this school's official policy on racism and prejudice and what happened to your father, he shouldn't even be mentioned in Class 49, let alone be a part of the Main Course!.

It's really odd, I know. Why is Biju a member of one of the Main Course classes? Especially with a class with an iconic and notorious reputation as Class 49? Wouldn't it make better sense just to expel both Hitoshi and Biju for even being at Hope's Peak due to their skin color? In fact, why are they and Ichiro even in the same class? How does Class 49 even exist in the way that it was formed?!

I think the most logical, rational solution we have to analyze is that Hope's Peak decided to pull this strategy because of forced pressure from the outside world, in order to be seen as embarking on some kind of educational reforms for the school system. In other words, this was essentially supposed to be a move that would drastically improve the academy's reputation and public image, since Hope's Peak's reputation wasn't as acclaimed as it was now today.

And even that, you gotta consider that during the entire time, America was occupying almost half the country with military forces during the period of time, so perhaps the Steering Committee feared incurring the wrath of the Americans, hence why Class 49 was formed as a temporary solution in order to appease them?

But even then, it's still a tremendous rabbit hole to go down through Why were the Americans even involved in the first place? What did they even necessarily want for Hope's Peak? Why was Biju placed on the Hall of Fame, yet Dad was not, despite being part of the class itself? And the most confusing thing of all is how does Harumi Nanami fit into all of the events mentioned?

Let's think about this okay?: She solved the murder of her junior high school teacher, despite not having any official leads and having to rely on a trash bag with dismembered body parts, in less than a few minutes, she has solved about 450 cases over the span of several decades, has formed her own team of law enforcement experts, and is widely popular and well respected within the police departments, yet she doesn't even get an acceptance letter for the Main Course. How come?

After all of the hard work that she dedicated years to help the police with the increased crime rates in this city, and the school doesn't even accept her? Yet someone like Eminia Niijue, a person who wasn't even relevant to Hope's Peak at all before then, gets to be accepted into the Main Course? With how much Hope's Peak values talent above all aspects of life, it would be absolutely ridiculous that they wouldn't even give Harumi an acceptance letter into the Main Course, especially considering her reputation and how talented her skills in forensics are, as well as having connections to the police.

Maybe it's because she was a girl? You know how Hope's Peak treats us ladies nowadays.

No, I don't think it's just because Harumi was a female. There's got to be an explanation for this type of behavior because I refuse to chalk it all up to simple misogyny by the Steering Committee or even the Headmaster. After all, the Sakuras were at Hope's Peak's Reserve course, and they were accepted into the Main Course, despite being close friends with Harumi, so she should've gotten accepted in by comparison, especially in comparison with someone like Emina, who wasn't even heard of untill she was married into a rich family through an arranged marriage.

There's gotta be more to this story than what I've just investigated. I'm sure that something suspicious happened that day, and I wholeheartedly won't stop untill I find out what! After all, if this was something that violates and is against the very ideals and beliefs about talent in Hope's Peak, what else could they have been lying about for years?

This situation opens a massive can of worms for not just everyone involved, but also the very ideas of talent and hope in society, because if a person who's clearly talented in a particular subject gets denied acceptance into this prestigious academy where talent is the main belief in society and someone from a nontalented background gets accepted instead, then what does that mean for the rest of us talented people in society?

This is honestly terrifying to break down and for good reason. If Hope's Peak were to be caught breaking its own rules and ideology simply because of greed, then... what does that mean for all of us? My dad... could it be because of...

Let's not jump straight to any conclusions. While yeah, the prospect of them hypocritically preaching their belief about talent and hope yet denying someone as talented and helpful as Harumi simply because of corporate greed is absolutely disgusting to think upon, let's not focus on that now, because it's not relevant to what's happening at the moment.

I'm not saying that this conversation is irrelevant or doesn't matter, but it's not what we're focusing on right now. What matters is stopping Komaeda from making the worst mistake of his life by trying to murder Hajime, and preventing the two from ever interacting with each other, in order to guarantee Hajime's safety. So instead of worrying about something in the past, focus on what you can do starting now.
