[うたプリライエモ] Uta no Prince-sama LIVE EMOTION 2024 Birthday Greetings Translation (Side: HE★VENS)

*T/N: I did this on a whim but I did promise some utapri content, so.

Eiichi: Happy birthday. I have half the mind to celebrate your birthday with everyone else and go out with a bang, but I hope to spend today alone with you.

Eiichi: Looking back at it now, our meeting must have been an act of fate. If there was one word to describe it, it would be “destiny”.

Eiichi: Thank you, for being born in the same lifetime as me. Let me show you the feelings I have that can’t be conveyed through words alone on our date to come.

Kira: Happy… birthday. First and foremost… I wanted to tell you that before anything… else.

Kira: Words cannot describe my feelings… for you… even if I had a day. That’s just how… deep… my feelings are.

Kira: Are you… frustrated? In that case… I will put my emotions into song. Please accept it…

Nagi: Happy birthday~✰ Nagi doesn’t mind singing you a birthday song to celebrate♪

Nagi: But I’d be in quite the pickle if you got too absorbed in be just because I did that as fanservice. Oh, look at yourself!

Nagi: You can’t go making that face in front of others. You can only pull that sorta face in front of Nagi, okay? Promise me?

Eiji: Happy birthday! It might seem like I’m exaggerating, but I’ve really been looking forward to this day.

Eiji: Even just the thought of it makes me happy… In fact, my life has felt fulfilling ever since I met you.

Eiji: Let me tell you my honest feelings so that I don’t leave any regrets. Thank you, always. Stay by me forever, alright?

Van: Happy birthday! Your smile’s lookin’ especially cute today.

Van: Is it really alright for me to think of ‘ya that way? I’m glad if it is!

Van: I did think of puttin’ an end to this joke but, nah. I’d like for ‘ya to keep smilin.

Yamato: It’s your birthday today? Now that’s a cause to celebrate! And celebrations call for cake! And we’re definitely gonna go for a run after the cake!

Yamato: But well… you only get a birthday once per year, so maybe it’s alright to loosen up a little.

Yamato: Is it that surprising? Hey now, that smile on your face is something I’d never get tired of seeing.

Shion: Today is the day you were blessed with life unto this realm. It is a joy to give you my well-wishes in person…

Shion: The time spent with you is as comfy as napping under a spot of sunlight. It is something that nothing else can compare to.

Shion: It would not be an exaggeration to say that there is no greater happiness than that. If I have to stake my all into doing so, so be it as it may, but allow me to express my gratitude today.

ST☆RISH

Quartet Night

HE★VENS

[meltedbluecaterpillar]

Olfactophilia

ST☆RISH - QUARTET NIGHT

TW FOR SEMI SUGGESTIVE CONTENT! These are my personal headcanons on what I think the idols would wear. You do not have to agree with me. I just dislike how Broccoli always gives their character merch scents like; apple or lavender. They are adult men in an entertainment industry. They usually get promotional items so I think that they have preferences... But I also have a thing for exploring the world around me with my nose first. I hope you enjoy.

Quick explanation; top notes, middle notes, and base notes are the length of how long the scent will last when applied. Top notes; 5 - 15 minutes / Middle notes; 1 hour / Base notes; Max of 6 hours

Eiichi Ootori

Heavenly Delusion by ASTRE Unisex Cologne Around 200 USD // 31,554 Yen

I think grape is a very childish smell for someone like Eiichi. It reminds me of candy with the manufactured taste. So! I decided to take some creative liberties. My original choice also wasn't something I wanted to stick with. I like this much better after looking between the two. So this will be my final choice! The top notes are tangerine, blood orange, and pink pepper! It is citrusy with a bite of pepper that I think retains masculinity while still being unisex? Going in to hug him or leaning in close would make your eyes widen with surprise almost. The middle notes are peony, rose, lily of the valley, cinnamon, and ginger! A lot of floral notes but they are not overwhelming because of the cinnamon and ginger. It is a balance that almost smells earthy? It's powdery and you start to feel your body really relax with this one. And finally the base notes. We have coffee, vanilla bourbon, sandalwood, patchouli, and white musk(white flowers like jasmine). This is where we have a soft and alluring smell. Very heavenly (haha!) like you're drifting away on a cloud the longer you inhale and close your eyes. I specifically wanted a coffee note for Eiichi since I know he is a fan of fancy chocolate and coffee. Which... If they would've used either of those in a merch fragrance I would have been happier...

The longer that Eiichi holds you the less you want him to let go... Is it intentional?

Eiji Ootori

Endymion Concentré by PENHALIGON'S Masculine Cologne Around 120 USD // 18,889 Yen

My first reason for choosing this is a personal headcanon. Endymion is said to be very handsome! I think Eiji is very handsome and sweet, but also... I have another reason for choosing it. But that is a secret! The top notes are lavender, bergamot, and sage. These give off the scent that may remind you of a fresh bouquet. Imagine that he brought them to you on a late night date. Very alluring and pleasant when sprayed. The middle notes are suede and geranium! Which I really like because the suede is very masculine and mature and the florals all mesh wonderfully. It isn't overbearing at all! Which can happen very easily with the usage of too many floral scents the fragrance will just smell like a big garden. Finally, the base notes are leather, nutmeg, and incense(usually very powdery). Now this is where the cologne has left its childish phase and has matured into something very sexy and adult which I personally like for Eiji. He looks up to his older brother and wants to show you that him being younger doesn’t mean he can’t treat you right! The nutmeg and leather is actually something very ‘intimate’ when it comes to scent with how they mesh. And the incense as a note reminds me of what tends to happen after the very romantic date. From the start to the finish you are wrapped up in a loving embrace!~!

Eiji wants you to see him as man, not a boy... Please, allow him to show you what he can do...

Kira Sumeragi

Dark Lord by Kilian Masculine Cologne Around 295 USD // 46,543 Yen

This was a choice I was happy to make. I think that Kira would wear something seductive because of how he is marketed. He is actually a very sweet and quiet guy who isn’t very good with his words. So when he wants to prove a point to you, I would like to thing he would do it without having to speak!~! Our top notes are Sichuan pepper, bergamot, and cloves! A spicy and sweet opening that is elegant and an immediate head turner. He already has your attention without saying a single word. The middle notes are davana(sharp and bitter smelling herb), jasmine, rum, and birch. This is much warmer than our top notes and it’s almost like you’re being hypnotized. Pulled in by the smell that lingers on his clothes. Very rich and it’s such a gorgeous smell already and we have one more layer left to the cologne!The base notes are leather, vetiver, cedar, amber, oakmoss, and nagarmotha(strong earthy smell)! So this all melts together and it’s so wonderful it’s actually hard to describe in words for me personally. The leather, vetiver, and nagarmotha all work together in a way that feels very handsome if that makes sense. They go together extremely well which makes me smile! While the cedar, amber, and oakmoss have a lighter and fresh smell. Very earthy and clean and it’s almost like a breath of fresh air. All together you will be captivated by your dark lord Kira- I mean… He wants to tell you about his intense wants. But he wears this instead hoping that you understand him!

It’s already too late for you now… Kira has placed you under his spell without making a sound…

Shion Amakusa

Fahrenheit 32 by Dior Masculine Cologne Around 105 USD // 16,492 Yen

Sadly, this fragrance has been discontinued. But that doesn't change the fact that it smells wonderful. My original choice for Shion was based on a surface level understanding. Mostly me viewing him as an idol with fandom jokes and not really an overall person. So I have decided to finalize my choice of fragrance with something as classy as Fahrenheit 32 by Dior. So the bottle is very glossy, appearing frosted from the cold. However there is a double meaning! The outside if Fahrenheit, and the inside is Celsius. Due to the fragrance offering a warm smell and feeling upon wear! At least that is what I believe! The notes listed are very basic which is actually fantastic. The smell is intended to replicate laying in bed with the person you really love. To invoke the emotions you might feel with something so peaceful and intimate. The top notes are iris, rose and orange blossom. It's very floral and pretty. Delicate in a nice way with the subtle citrus. The middle notes are vanilla, white tobacco and vetiver(it's a plant). Now it fades from floral to warm and smooth! Very cozy and the citrus mixes nicely with the vanilla. Almost like a creamcicle? There is a lingering sweetness but it has a more intimate smell now. Lastly the base notes are... Soap! This is a mix of floral concentrates usually but it smells like a plain white bar of soap if that makes sense! Fresh and clean!~!

Shion would be happy to lay under the sheets with you... But only if you're interested in what could happen next...

Nagi Mikado

Fox in the Flowerbed by Imaginary Authors Feminine Cologne Around 105 USD // 16,492 Yen

Nagi is a cunning and 'cute' character. Also I can never pinpoint how old he actually is? So I assume 13 - 16 range. But he uses the cute gimmick and little kid aesthetic as much as he can since HEAVENS was given a wider range of ages in one group to maximize the appeal. So that means even though Nagi will one day grow up, he has to really play the younger sibling role as long as he can. So I picked this fragrance! It is far more feminine than it is unisex, but I don't think Nagi would choose something overly masculine since that it doesn't fit with his usual aesthetic? But he is also... A young man... He probably had a short phase of wearing AXE before he became an idol. The top notes are jasmine, mountain air (a combination of scents that make it smell fresh and earthy), and tulips. It's a very refreshing smell that comes off as walking straight into a garden when it's nice and cool outside. The middle notes are honey and olibanum (it's a resin that smells like frankincense! Woody and a little fruity). This is where it starts to seem more childish but not in a bad way! The honey and olibanum give you a sweetness that shows what Nagi attempts to project to the fans. He is your 'Cutie Nagi'. Of course he would smell sweet and cute! And finally the base notes are pink pepper and thistle. The base notes together have a slight spicy scent which makes the scent somewhat fierce? The cunning fox in the flowerbed. Nagi want's to be the cute youngest but there's also part of him that wants to be seen as mature. So I think the fragrance being more sweet and floral with that delicate snap of pepper is very fitting for him as a character.

Nagi wants a big hug from you! Secretly hoping his cologne will cling to you when he lets you go...

Yamato Hyuga

Bubble Bath by Maison Margiela Unisex Cologne Around 165 USD // 25,944 Yen

I actually dislike Yamato as a character. For a very petty reason I cannot disclose. But I cannot allow my personal bias to give him something that I don't think would fit him. My heart says 'cheap Old Spice' but after doing a quick search he has a citrus scent for his fragrance? He is childish to a certain extent but just saying 'citrus' always has the reminiscence of cleaner fluids and things you find under a kitchen sink. And I think that wouldn't be accurate to him as a character? So, I decided to give him Bubble Bath by Maison Margiela! It is part of a collection called REPLICA which was designed to literally replicate the smell of whatever the name of the cologne is. It is technically meant to be a unisex fragrance but it is more feminine leaning. Which I chose intentionally for Yamato. He has a very hard outside, but he has soft insides. I would like to see it more if I had the chance... Anyway, our top notes are soap(again!) and bergamot. The top notes are a very... Foamy smell? If that makes sense. A scentless soap for sensitive skin. Although it lacks a fragrance, there is a hint of something clean, fresh, and floral. Delicate if that makes sense. The middle notes are lavender, rose, and jasmine. Still very subtle and pleasant. I like it a lot because I think Yamato is very self conscious and overly hygienic because he loves to workout and move his body. But because of that he fears smelling bad since he is also an idol. The base notes are coconut, white musk, patchouli. It has almost like... A clean linen smell. Fresh out of the dryer where it isn't super hot but it's like a warm hug from your towel after you get out of the lukewarm bath water. Again I view Yamato as overly aware of his personal hygiene because he is a gym rat so I choose to believe he will always smell fresh and clean. He doesn't look like a cologne person at all haha!~!

Someone like Yamato having such a delicate smell... Even he has a soft side to him...

Van Kiryuin

Decimo by Gritti Masculine Cologne Around 193 USD // 30,450 Yen

So it actually came as a surprise to me than Van is associated with the scent of bergamot according to his fragrance merch. My original scent choice was a wood and earthy smell but I decided that I have changed my mind. So we have Decimo by Gritti which I think fits Van very well! The top notes are bergamot and black currant! A citrusy and tart opening. Which gives you a 'cool' feeling. Relaxed if that makes sense. The middle notes are birch, patchouli, and rose. This is where it melts down and you get a lovely inhale of floral. Warm and woody, still masculine and fresh which I personally am a big fan of. Especially for someone like Van! Finally our base notes, which would be ambergris(), musk, and vanilla. "Musk" is actually something you would extract after killing a deer. "Ambergris" is found inside of the Sperm Whale that offers a warm, salty smell. However it is considered cruel and is illegal to buy and sell for the sake of fragrance. So! Both of these are actually something synthetic with a pheromonic effect. And from what I have researched has occasionally caused 'excitement' in the opposite sex if you are catching my drift. The entirety of the base is more like an intimate hug and whispers against your neck you can't help but squeak in surprise!

Van is more bite than he is bark... Please tread carefully or he might eat you up!

(Glorious angels…) (Glorious angels…) (Glorious angels…) (We gotta love and cherish you) (We’ll make your dream) Ei It’s bright, the light spreads everywhere Ei I try to grab it with my outstretched hands Va So hot, these emotions keep boiling inside of me Va I want to keep pushing myself until the limit Ya It’s brave, the more wounds I bear, the stronger I get Ya Every punch I take turns into a scab Ki Complete, surely we’ll reach utopia Ki For we have the key to open that door Ng Glorious angels Ej This body, these lips Sh This hair, these eyes, even these fingertips Ng My whole body trembles in joy Ej These emotions Sh Yes, all of them I’ll dedicate it all to you alone… Ah The meaning of loneliness and solitude Don’t misunderstand them at all You’re not alone even in your “suffering” I want to grab you and climb up so I can show you that There’s a view beyond The highest point that we can see I want to kiss you passionately Ei It’s pride, “don’t be afraid of changing” Ei You can’t be stuck in the same place forever Va So cool, while living life to the fullest Va I want to show you my dignified figure Ya It’s rule, it’s okay to lay all your impulses bare Ya Stick to your beliefs and unveil them tomorrow Ki All right, your thirsty and aching heart Ki Let it sing about everything you wish Ng Glorious angels Ej Always looking for adventure Sh Always being by my side Ng Wrapped up in happiness Ej With a smile Sh With hope You were there to teach me in every way… Ah Oh miracle, may you shine across the sky and beyond Let the wings of song flutter gracefully Make your strength and your courage transform into musical notes That’ll write a new story Believe in it and follow me Sh Even if the world comes to an end someday Ng Even though I know that day is coming soon Ki Even if my voice is stolen and I can’t stand up anymore Ej Even in the days when my tears dry up Ya I know I can become someone else’s wings Va Shall I charm you and take you away? Ei To -HE★VENS- Ei I swear in your name… Ah The meaning of loneliness and solitude Don’t misunderstand them at all You’re not alone even in your “suffering” Loving yourself, being loved, and loving someone else We can do that eternally So let’s embrace each other here Oh miracle, may you shine across the sky and beyond Let the wings of song flutter gracefully Make your strength and your courage transform into musical notes That’ll write a new story Believe in it and follow me ㅤ

[solarisleech]

what's your basic impression of all the utapri characters?

My basic impressions of everybody, hm?

This was tough, trying to distill my thoughts back down to the basics, but I’m glad I got this ask! Even then, I did go a bit further than “basic”, and I apologize if that’s not what you wanted from me.

Thank you for getting me to actually write down my impressions for the HEAVENS boys, lol. Those are first impressions, since I have only seen their anime appearances (haven’t translated a lot of Live Emotion).

I went in the… Official (?) character order, and challenged myself to say as little as I physically could.

So here we go!

—

Otoya

Not gonna lie, initially I fell for his appearance as the “sunshine boy”. It was hard not to.

Then The Incident in Season 4 happened. And the camping special.

He really is like a sunflower. I appreciate his brightness more now that I’m starting to see the shadows he hides. Very excited to continue his route in Repeat!

Masato

Didn’t think much of him at first, since he’s so quiet in the anime.

Then found out how silly he was in the rest of the canon. I still remember how charmed I was when I found out he learned how to interact with girls exclusively from books, lol.

He is genuinely polite, but has an awkward streak beneath due to his lack of experience. It’s inspiring to see how he persisted despite his father’s demands, before standing up to him. He’s in my top 5 characters!

Natsuki

Initially thought he was a cutie, turns out, he always was a cutie! Another top 5 favorite of mine.

I was bothered by the slight infantilization he gets in the anime, but, it tapered off and was/is virtually non existent in Shining Live and Live Emotion, thankfully.

I was shocked that Satsuki isn’t the… worst DID depiction I’ve ever seen? Still has major problems, though.

Tokiya

Thought he’d be my favorite, was proven wrong. Had a similar opinion towards him as I did with Masato when I first watched the anime.

But that, too, was quickly rectified by other materials! What really stands out to me is his realistically bad relationship with food?

He’s dealt with a lot of loneliness, and his chronic perfectionism doesn’t help. Luckily, he’s loosened up a little in more recent canon. I’m really curious about all of his VN routes, though.

Ren

My baby. My love. In my top 3. Though, it took me a while to really fall for him.

I wish the anime kept him a little meaner pre-his development, like the VNs seem to. (Baby asshole Ren is very funny) Though, I don’t know if it would have fit very well…

Once he opens up to everyone else, he’s just so sweet, it melts me. But, of course, he’s still a big fan of teasing. He’s well balanced, I hate that some of his exes have canonically called him boring, lol.

Syo

Admittedly, I need to learn more about him. My first impression was that he was hot-headed, but still kind. Probably because he was used for a lot of comic relief in the anime…

I love that the reason he’s motivated to become so strong and active is due to how sick he was his entire childhood.

I do like him, but I don’t know as much about him as I’d like to. Syo-stans, please infodump on me.

Cecil

My first impression was “WTF”, due to him bringing in magic to the anime. Then, more “wtf” once I learned about the themes of his Repeat route. (Excited to get to that)

Embarrassingly, I still need some Cecil lovers to enlighten me. I want to learn more!

My overall impression as of now is that he’s very affectionate with pretty much everyone and kinda aloof. I do love him a lot despite my lack of knowledge.

Reiji

Another! Top! Three! Boy!

My love for him is what cemented me into Utapri. I have so many thoughts.

He’s so broken. He’s desperate for somebody to save him, but pushes everybody away when they get too close. He’s still so kind to everyone despite that. He’s the glue that keeps QN together. He—

Ranmaru

Another character I didn’t think much about initially. The anime doesn’t do a great job at portraying his softer side.

But he’s such a chill dude, trauma based aversion to women aside. His abandonment trauma fuels a lot of his “unsavory” behavior in the VN, which, I get.

I was worried he’d be more like a jock, but was pleasantly surprised by this rockerboy.

Ai

I was not interested in him at all at first, again, blame the anime. That was my first exposure.

But the minute I learned about the baggage he has with Reiji, suddenly everything makes sense. Then, I specifically read through the Soda event story in Shining Live, and started to love him more. His weird collections are relatable!

Overall a curious soul. Standoffish and slightly rude at the start. Though, he always maintains his “rude” streak, unintentionally. He’s charmingly blunt with… well, everything!

Camus

My final top three boy! I hated him at the start! Again, the anime doesn’t paint a good picture. He was very much an asshole.

I now think he’s an asshole… but with extreme depth. I am fascinated by him. Mr. Child soldier. He canonically has no romance experience because he studied the blade. I GET why he’s like that.

He’s someone who was taught to bury his feelings since he was a very young child, so opening up is… a struggle. But once he does, he’s a bit of a prankster, picking on people as a way to show affection. Once he’s fully melted down, he’s heavily grateful to everyone who got him to that point. He’s got a core as sweet as the tea he makes.

Eiichi

Initially I thought he was just evil.

I get it now. I think? The “evil” seems to be his way of protecting himself from his father’s… shit. I’m interested in this man.

Kira

He is a man… of few… words.

Initially had no opinion past recognizing his seiyuu… But he’s very sweet! It feels weird that his backstory is just… Masato’s if he wasn’t afraid of his dad.

Nagi

This is a child. I found him kinda annoying.

Natsuki’s duet episode did NOT help, but I can’t exactly blame him for that. He’s a kid.

I’m… tentatively eager to learn more about him. I wanna see what’s past the narcissism.

Eiji

…I don’t know anything about this man. I barely remember his name half the time.

He’s just a kind dude? Who’s, idk, a musical savant, I guess. I’m sure his ability to blend into the background helps him avoid his terrible dad.

Van

I don’t know how to feel about him. His vibe is strange. It’s reminds me of how jarring Camus’ butler persona was at first.

His episode was not it. Though it was very cool to see Haruka’s growth, with her calmly rejecting him.

Yamato

Why is he an idol? I genuinely want someone to explain his deal to me, I have no idea what’s up with this guy.

He is what I thought Ranmaru would be.

Shion

He is clearly very sensitive. And shy. I wanna know why, though?

Like, Cecil didn’t do anything particularly wrong in their episode.

What happened to Shion? Why did he react like that?

—

Aaaand we’re done!

(This was my attempt at brevity. God.)

I think you can tell that my favorite group is Quartet Night.

And HEAVENS fans, please tell me about your boys. Season 4 left me wanting when it came to HEAVENS’ entire deal.

!! Hello!! I hope you're having a nice day... Or night? Or maybe this is a dream... Um!! If you have time... Could you... Write about different dates? Where they would go with MC the very first time, even if it's a friend date for the first outing! It can be anything. It can be any gender too... I would rather see your preferences... Starish... Quartet Night... Heavens... You should pick your favorites only when you write it... Or do as you like... Either way I will read it the way you choose to write it... ✨

-Pankeki-kun 🥞

Pankeki-kun! Welcome… You are too kind. Actually, I know many people dislike them, but I am a big HEAVENS fan. Thank you for giving me the choice so I could write something for them…! Sorry for the delay… I had the Sickness We Shall Not Mention, but I am all better now!

HEAVENS and first dates

Eiichi, thanks to his father, has a bit of a complex, so wants to look as cool and interesting as possible in front of his date. His hobby is car racing, so he perhaps would take his date to see a race or try it for themselves - if they are not interested in driving, he can always invite them into his own car to see him drive and experience the adrenaline of racing anyway. To decompress, he would take his date to a fancy restaurant with light food so they could later take a walk back through a park before he drives his date home.

During said walk is probably where you two would get to talk the most. The breeze of the early night is nice, the dark is comforting, and the park is empty so it’s an especially nice place to open up and talk about what you experienced together. It’s also the perfect moment for him to try and flirt a little under the disguise of the starry sky~

Eiji would try to play it safe, and take his date to a classic first date location like a café after watching a movie together. He’ll try his best to pick a movie that his date would like as a way to win some extra points (not without easing the topic in conversation before even gathering the courage to ask his crush out on a date), but if not, he would be the kind to simply ask his date what they wanted to watch.

And although a movie is not the best place to talk and get to know each other, it will give him the chance to see if you felt comfortable with him or not, and it also gives him something to talk about afterwards if by any chance talking about yourself feels a bit too much for now. It’s a safe pick that won’t require much preparation, but also something simple and relaxing that can become a habit for you too and give you more opportunities to see each other and grow closer together.

Kira is a bit self conscious of his stoic face and his struggle to voice his emotions, so he would probably also take his date to a place where he doesn’t need to talk much. He enjoys music, naturally, and he also can play the piano so he’s knowledgeable in classical music, so perhaps he would take his date to an orchestra recital. The place and the low lighting would make it easier for him to evaluate your reactions as well, to plan for a later hypothetical date.

He is interested in pottery as a hobby, so maybe if things go well, he’ll plan a later date for the both of you to attend a pottery class together. That also allows him to keep quiet yet still spend time with you, but it also helps him show a part of himself that not everybody knows. He will probably make a specially nice piece based on what you like and give it to you once it’s done, as a way to remember a special time for him and hopefully for you as well.

Nagi would try to take his date to a place that shows the best, and cutest, part of himself. He’d try his best to make sure his date was a fun place where it felt like the time flew by and where his date had a lot of different choices so there was no chance of becoming boring - something like build-a-bear, or an arcade.

He’ll make sure you take a souvenir with you, that being the plushie you make or a prize he won through a claw machine or with tickets at the prize shop of the arcade, so whenever you see this prize you would think of him. He might even try to swap prizes with you - he’s going to make sure the thing you get from him is as close as how cute he is so you don’t get to forget about your first date together!

Yamato loves to move his body and really enjoys sports, so he would probably take his date to do something like indoor rock climbing. It gives him a chance to show off something he’s confident in as well as having an excuse to get close to his date while showing correct hand placement on the rocks and the right and safest way to tie a harness.

If you have a good time he’d be over the moon and say you two can go together again whenever you want to. If you had a hard time and don’t want to go back, he’d apologise and to make it up for you, he’ll let you pick the place for the next date. A win-win.

Shion would probably take his date to a place like a bird café at first, and later something like a greenhouse. If things go well, he might even take them to an observatory or the like. He’s a bit insecure and he gets overwhelmed easily, so he would rather go to a quiet and calm place given that he’s already feeling quite nervous after asking his crush out. He’ll try to invite his date to places that he likes in an effort to show parts of himself in a way that’s not too obvious.

The secret here is asking him about things - birds, stars, whatever is that catches his attention, and be patient with him and be an avid listener. He’d probably be worried about being too pushy about his interests, so he might be a bit tense at the start of the date, but he’ll probably feel more confident after you spend a bit more time with him (but luckily, not yet so relaxed that he falls asleep!).

Van would take his date to somewhere fun and with a great energy, like a stand-up or manzai show or maybe even out dancing. He’s an energetic man, so it’s only natural that those were the places that would attract him the most - and it also gives him a great chance to improvise some corny jokes and pick-up lines to try to make his date laugh, too; something versatile so that he can also have a private moment with his crush and be able to chat.

If you enjoy yourself, he’ll probably keep an eye on interesting events just so he could ask you out again. A bar with live jazz music, an interactive play, a themed restaurant - just leave the entertainment to him, and with his enthusiasm you are definitely going to have a good time.
