#I'm loving the implication that Kiryu has beaten up so many people in junior high that he can't recognize someoneone of them

Character Story - Kiryu (Junior High Student) [RGGO]

Remember how in Kiwami there’s a Majima Everywhere event where Majima accuses Kiryu of reading sexy magazines outside of M Store and Kiryu just snaps? Well, this may or may not be the backstory to that XD

We don’t have Junior High in our country, so how old is a JH student? 13? 14? Either way, if I were the one in Kiryu’s position, I’m pretty sure I’d be crying the entire time. Kudos to our Dragon Baby for staying strong!

Story: Kiryu enters a bookstore to buy the latest issue of Dragon Ball, and ends up getting accused of stealing a porn magazine and earning a reputation in Kamurocho.

Kazama: “It’s normal for a growing boy to feel these things, Kazuma. You see when a man and a woman love each other very much-”

Kiryu: “AaAaAaAAaaAAaaaAAAaAaaA!!!”

For those who don’t know, the H stands for "hentai" :D

CHAPTER 1

.

|When Kiryu Kazuma was a junior high student . . .|

|On that day, Kiryu was visiting a bookstore.|

 [Bookstore]

Bookstore Clerk: “Welcome.”

Kiryu: “Now . . . what to do . . .”

Kiryu: (Today is the release of the latest issue of ‘Dragon Bowling’ . . . but if I buy it now, I’ll be broke for the rest of the month. But I really want to read the new issue . . . hmm, I’m conflicted.)

{The front door opens.}

Bookstore Clerk: “Welcome.”

Bald Guy: “. . .”

Kiryu: (. . . What is with that bald guy? He keeps glaring over here . . . Hm? It looks like I wandered into the erotic books corner . . . Ah, so it wasn’t me he was looking at. This is awkward, there’s only the two of us here. I don’t want to linger here too much . . .)

Kiryu: “Well then, I need to decide if I’m going to buy that book or not. Hmm . . .”

{Bald Guy bumps into Kiryu.}

Bald Guy: “Oops . . . you shouldn’t be standing there, bro, you’re in the way.”

Kiryu: “What . . . ?”

{Bald Guy leaves the store.}

Bookstore Clerk: “Thank you very much.”

Kiryu: “Tch. What’s with that guy? Bumping into someone and not even buying anything.  . . . I should just go home for today. If I still have money at the end of the month, then I’ll buy it.”

Bookstore Clerk: “Hey, you . . . can I talk to you for a moment?”

Kiryu: “Hm?”

Bookstore Clerk: “I’m sorry if it’s a misunderstanding. But . . . I want you to show me the inside of your bag.”

Kiryu: “My bag . . . ? Why?”

Bookstore Clerk: “One of the adult books on the shelf is gone. If it’s a misunderstanding, I apologize in advance. But for the time being, please allow me to check.”

Kiryu: “. . . You’re saying I shoplifted? That’s absurd. If you want to look in my bag, fine.”

{Kiryu unzips his bag.}

Kiryu: “As you can see . . . hn?!”

Kiryu: (‘Erotic Volcano Summer Special Issue’?! What is this doing in my bag . . . ?!)

Bookstore Clerk: “Th-This is . . . the lost H book!! There’s no doubt, the mystery is solved! You . . . shoplifter! Come here, I’m calling the police!”

Kiryu: “W-Wait! I didn’t shoplift! This . . . this is a mistake!”

Bookstore Clerk: “Oh you made a mistake and somehow this H book just fell into your bag without your permission?”

Kiryu: “Th-That’s . . .”

Bookstore Clerk: “Now come with me . . .”

Kiryu: “Please wait. Here, you can have my student ID. I can’t run away or hide. So please give me some time . . . I will definitely find the true criminal who framed me.”

{Kiryu runs off.}

Bookstore Clerk: “Ah! Wait!!”

[Nakamichi Alley]

Kiryu: “Haa . . . haa . . . I can’t find him at all . . . Where did that man go? I have to clear this misunderstanding with the clerk as soon as possible . . .”

Giant Man: “. . . Are you Kiryu Kazuma?”

Kiryu: “? . . . and if I am?”

Giant Man: “Apparently it’s true . . . but even if you’re a kid, I can’t forgive you. I’ll punish you!!”

Kiryu: “Tch. I’m in a hurry!”

{Kiryu defeats the Giant Man.}

Giant Man: “F-Fuck! To lose to a shoplifter of erotic books . . .”

Kiryu: “What?!”

Giant Man: “Because of you, Muramura Bookstore is closed . . . The store had the best assortment of erotic books!”

Kiryu: “W-Wait a minute . . . you think I’m a shoplifter?”

Giant Man: “You can’t hide your lechery by playing dumb! You’re absolutely unforgivable!”

Kiryu: “Wait! . . . Damn it, he’s gone. What does he mean? Why does that guy think I’m a shoplifter?”

City Man: “I thought he was a good kid, but that Kiryu-kun shoplifts H books.”

Kiryu: “?!”

City Woman: “Hey kid, shoplifting isn’t cute. If you want to know about H things, I can teach you.”

Kiryu: “?!”

Kiryu: “N-No way . . . does this mean the rumors of me shoplifting are spreading through the city? Only that bald guy could have done this, but why . . . ?!”

Kazama: “Kazuma . . .”

Kiryu: “O-Oyassan! What are you doing here?”

Kazama: “. . .”

Kiryu: “. . . ?”

Kazama: “. . . Ah, I’m sorry . . . I shouldn’t have thought that you’d stay a child forever. You’re going through puberty.”

Kiryu: “. . . Eh?”

Kazama: ‘I was like that too when I was your age. It’s not bad to be interested in such things.”

Kiryu: “Oyassan? What are you . . . D-Don’t tell me it reached even your ears!! O-Oyassan! It’s all a misunderstanding!!”

Kazama: “I know the kind of person you are. But are you saying the shoplifting is a misunderstanding?”

Kiryu: “Eh? Y-Yes! That’s right! I was screwed over . . . !”

Kiryu: (It’s Oyassan after all! He knows me better than anyone else . . .)

Kazama: “. . . Most of the time, such rumors are started even if you’re just browsing.”

Kiryu: “?!”

Kazama: “Next time, read it in a place where no one will find you. A man has to keep up appearances, after all.”

Kiryu: “O-Oyassan! I-It’s not like that!”

Kazama: “it’s alright . . . I know you want to hide your interests. But there’s nothing to be ashamed of.”

Kiryu: “No . . . that’s not . . .”

Kazama: “Don’t worry. I asked the guy who told me this not to tell anyone else.  . . . Oh, sorry. I was on my way to Patriarch Dojima. Let’s discuss this more later. Kazuma, I know you’re anxious, but you can always rely on me.”

{Kazama leaves Kiryu alone.}

Kiryu: “O-Oyassan . . . ! Th-This is the worst . . . Damn it, I have to find that bald guy and prove my innocence before the rumors spread even further . . . !”

CHAPTER 2

.

[Nakamichi Street]

Kiryu: “Haa . . . haa . . . That bald guy . . . I can’t find him at all.”

Mister: “Hey, isn’t that the boy who shoplifts H books? Haha, say . . . are you okay?”

Kiryu: “?!”

Young Woman: “You get withdrawal symptoms if you can’t steal H books, right? That’s scary.”

Kiryu: “?!”

Mister: “He has a bed made of H books at his house, and he can’t sleep without them . . . That’s abnormal.”

Kiryu: “?!”

Kiryu: “Oi! Wait a moment! I’m not a shoplifter! And-“

Mister: “Hiii! Did you get even more excited when we mentioned H books?! D-Don’t attack us!”

Young Woman: “Hiii! Don’t come any closer!”

{The two run away.}

Kiryu: “O-Oi! Wait . . . ! Damn it. Why are the shoplifting rumors so widespread . . . is it the work of that bald guy? And why are the rumors escalating? At this rate, I’m going to end up sounding terribly perverted . . . I need to prove my innocence quickly. But where on earth can I find that man?”

Nishikiyama: “Kiryu! Haa . . . haa . . . I finally found you.”

Kiryu: “Nishiki . . . ! What is it?”

Nishikiyama: “Haa . . . haa . . . you . . . I heard you shoplifted erotic books and got thrown into prison . . .”

Kiryu: “I’m in prison?!”

Nishikiyama: “Yeah, you’re an addict who shoplifts erotic books . . . many erotic bookstores have shut down from your erotic book shoplifting. Now that they’ve caught you, you can’t escape imprisonment.”

Kiryu: “That’s not true! It’s all a rumor.”

Nishikiyama: “. . . Rumor? So it’s not true?”

Kiryu: “It’s a lie. It’s all a lie.”

Nishikiyama: “. . . So it’s not true that you’ve shoplifted so many erotic books and became so addicted to shoplifting that you can’t sleep anymore?”

Kiryu: “Yeah . . . it’s a lie.”

Nishikiyama: “Haa . . . well, it was a good one. That little liar.”

Kiryu: “Little?”

Nishikiyama: “Yeah, there was a little old man telling passersby about it. So I thought you were in a pinch . . .”

Kiryu: “Why is the man spreading such a lie . . . Where was he?”

Nishikiyama: “Suppon Street. I just heard it a while ago, so he’s probably still there.”

Kiryu: “Damn him!”

{Kiryu runs off.}

Nishikiyama: “Oi! Kiryu, wait!”

----

[Suppon Street]

Petite Man: “So now, that Kiryu guy is . . . hm?”

Kiryu: “Hey, can you tell me the story of that Kiryu guy?”

Petite Man: “Oh, good. That Kiryu Kazuma is a shoplifter specializing in H books. It’s outrageous. Countless shops have been crushed by his shoplifting, the total amount of damage incurred is more than 10 million yen. Did you hear that Muramura Bookstore and Sukehira Land shut down recently? That was Kiryu’s work.”

Kiryu: “Huh . . . what an outrageous guy . . . So, where did you hear that big lie?”

Petite Man: “. . . Big lie? What do you know.”

Kiryu: “I know more than you. Because that Kiryu Kazuma is me.”

Petite Man: “?!”

{The man tries to run, but bumps into Nishiki.}

Nishikiyama: “Oops, can’t let you escape.”

Petite Man: “L-Let me go!”

Kiryu: “We’ll let you go. If you tell us why you’re spreading such a lie.”

Petite Man: “Gck . . . I’ll kill you!”

{Kiryu and Nishiki beat the guy up.}

Petite Man: “H-Hiii! S-Sorry! I’ll tell you anything! Please forgive me!”

Kiryu: “Then tell me . . . who are you?”

Petite Man: “I’m . . . Ken . . . I’m a thief . . . there’s two of us working together.”

Kiryu: “Thieves? Why’s a guy like you spreading lies about me?”

Ken: “M-My aniki asked me to . . .”

Kiryu: “Aniki?”

Ken: “He’s the boss of our little group. My aniki is a master a shoplifting, known as the Miraculous Tatsu.  . . . He’s the one who slipped that H book in your bag.”

Kiryu: “What?! Is that the guy with the shaved head?!”

Ken: “He wears a jumper, has a beard . . . has a lot of exposed skin on his head, yeah.”

Kiryu: “So it is him . . . Then why is he framing me and telling lies?”

Ken: “He said he had a grudge against Kiryu-san because he lost a fight to him once . . . That’s why he framed you as a shoplifter of H books and pinned his crime of making bookstores shut down on you.”

Nishikiyama: “What a guy.”

Kiryu: “What kind of person is that aniki of yours? Where is he now?”

Ken: “When he contacted me earlier, he said he was shoplifting back at that bookstore where you got accused.”

Kiryu: “. . . Alright. Then I’ll go to the bookstore. Follow me. I want you as my witness.”

Ken: “Y-Yes sir . . .”

CHAPTER 3

.

Bookstore Clerk: “. . .”

Bald Guy: (Oh? A new erotic book is out. Should I take 10 when the clerk takes his eyes off me? Kuku, how unfortunate for him that Miraculous Tatsu is here. I’ll keep shoplifting until the store shuts down.)

Kiryu: “I found him. The Miraculous Tatsu.”

Ken: “Aniki . . . I’m sorry . . .”

Miraculous Tatsu: “. . . Hm? . . .Kiryu . . . and . . . Ken?!”

Bookstore Clerk: “Hm? Ah, you shoplifter!! I won’t let you run this time!”

Kiryu: “Wait, Mr. Clerk. I’m not the shoplifter. That bald guy is the one who put the book in my bag and framed me.”

Bookstore Clerk: “Eh?!”

Miraculous Tatsu: “. . . I don’t know what he’s talking about. Can you stop imposing your sins on others?”

Kiryu: “There’s no use trying to squeeze your way out of this. Your subordinate has ratted you out already. Right?”

Ken: “Y-Yes . . . my aniki framed Kiryu for the shoplifting . . .”

Miraculous Tatsu: “. . . tch.”

Bookstore Clerk: “Wh-what! So it was you!”

Miraculous Tatsu: “. . . I don’t know that guy. Kiryu just brought him up as a false witness.”

Bookstore Clerk: “What was that . . . is that right?! Boy!”

Kiryu: “Don’t be stupid. That guy’s the criminal!”

Bookstore Clerk: “Wh-Which one is telling the truth . . .”

Miraculous Tatsu: “Mr. Clerk. Are you going to listen to a shoplifter? Isn’t this guy the villain who’s been getting bookstores shut down?”

Kiryu: “?!”

Miraculous Tatsu: “If you don’t make up your mind quickly, your store will be destroyed.”

Bookstore Clerk: “I-I won’t forgive you! I’ll protect this bookstore! This time I’m not letting you go, I’m calling the police!”

Kiryu: “Fuck . . .”

Miraculous Tatsu: “Hehe . . . give it up, Kiryu. You’ll forever be known as the pervert who steals erotic books.”

Kiryu: “I’m . . . not a shoplifter . . . or a pervert . . . !”

Miraculous Tatsu: “Heh, shoplifting ‘Erotic Volcano Summer Special Issue’, you don’t have an excuse.”

Kiryu: “. . . wait. You . . . why do you know the name of the book?”

Miraculous Tatsu: “. . . Ah?!”

Bookstore Clerk: “?!”

Kiryu: “The ones who know the title should only be me and the clerk here.”

Bookstore Clerk: “Surely you have an explanation, customer. Why do you know the title?”

Miraculous Tatsu: “Th-That is . . .”

Kiryu: “If you can’t say it, I’ll answer. There’s only one reason . . . because you’re the one who put it in my bag.”

Miraculous Tatsu: “Fuck . . .”

Bookstore Clerk: “Customer. Do you have anything else to say in your defense?”

Miraculous Tatsu: “Tch!”

Kiryu: “You can’t escape.”

Miraculous Tatsu: “That’s it! I’ll kill you!”

Kiryu: “If you can do it, then go ahead. On behalf of all the bookstores you put out of business . . . I’ll crush you again!!”

{Kiryu defeats the guy.}

Miraculous Tatsu: “Hiii! Please forgive me! I’ll confess to everything! I-I’ll admit I did it!!!! So please stop!!!!”

Kiryu: “. . . so that’s it then. Mr. Clerk, please handle this guy and the other one.”

Ken: “Hiii . . . “

Bookstore Clerk: “Y-Yeah. I’ll take care for them and hand them over to the police. And . . . thank you. Because of you, I’ve finally caught the real shoplifter. I’m sorry I suspected you of shoplifting H books.”

Kiryu: “. . . You just did your job. You don’t need to apologize.”

Bookstore Clerk: “But . . . there’s rumors about you in the city, right? That you stole H books . . .”

Kiryu: “. . .”

Bookstore Clerk: “I’m sorry about that. I’ll take full responsibility for the rumors. If I spread word that you were framed, the rumors should disappear in a few days.”

Kiryu: “Really?”

Bookstore Clerk: “Yeah. I know a rumor-loving Aunt who lives in a radio tower in Kamurocho. I’m sure the rumors will be managed.”

----

Kiryu: “. . . Phew. The rumors are likely to settle down now with this.”

Nishikiyama: “Kiryu! How was it?”

Kiryu: “Nishiki . . . things should be fine. I caught the criminal and cleared up my name.”

Nishikiyama: “Hehe, I’m glad. Well, even if you were accused of shoplifting erotic books, you have to admit it was funny.”

Kiryu: “. . . I’m not laughing.”

Nishikiyama: “Well, anyway, at least the case is settled.”

Giant Man: “Oh! You! I finally found you!”

Kiryu: “! You . . . we met earlier . . . I’m not a shoplifter.”

Giant Man: “Hehe, yeah it was a mistake. I heard it was all a lie. Sorry you got framed.”

Kiryu: “Really . . . ? Then what’s this about?”

Giant Man: “Did you get it? Did you buy ‘Erotic Volcano Summer Special Issue’? Even if you’re young, I want to discuss it with you!”

Kiryu: “. . .”

Nishikiyama: “This . . . the rumors aren’t going to disappear any time soon, huh . . .”
