[At the moment after the girls have already returned to the backstage, suddenly, the thick and hazy mist from nowhere then emerged into the stage from all directions, fogging over the entire scene as if it was curtain in the theater]

Greetings, ladies and gentlemen,

🎃 Live Reports & Behind the scenes Pt.2

According to the interview from some audiences after the reveal of 6th’s and 7th’s cast, they thought it’s funny that team Bad Boy felt oddly cool to them, while on the other hand, team Hero were also cool but with even more chaotic vibes than the previous one —Everyone did wonder in unison that what went through the organizer’s head when they decided to put them together. Well, Raiden and Saji were the only exceptions since both of them were naturally pretty dedicated to their team titles.

Raiden got a bit carried away as he started laughing like some maniac by the end of his show. And in consequence of that, his temporary teammates were just… letting him be before all left the scene like nothing happened.

Since the beginning of the 9th show, the ladies of team “SolaLune Fairies” were seen solemnly walking out of the backstage with a dark long veil covering most part of their face and their outfits. Each of them were also noted to hold a bouquet with different flowers. Lola were red tulips, Evelyn were blue roses, Moriko were sunflowers, and Miku were moon orchids. But once the first beat of the song dropped out, they suddenly changed their moods and threw their veils away ...showing off their party dresses which were delicately designed just for each of them (ultimate kudos were given to those from the costume team). Thus, the true catwalk showdown began! 

After all the teasing to throw their bouquets to the audience like in the wedding, it was still unknown who those ladies decide to give their bouquets to at the end. Maybe it was their lover/ bestie or etc. Who knows anyway? But as the show title hinted, they might probably give it to their fairest…

Before the 10th show starts, the camera caught Kanade having a high-five with Lola in the same fashion as those two boys from the first half. 

Despite not being much active around these days, Hana Izanami (@snowmantita) was spotted coming here in secret to cheer for her friends.

The 11th show was obviously one of the best highlights of this event, given 6 of them were actually the famed performers to begin with! In addition, Queen card was the one who planned most details of the performance herself. Besides, some of them were really going all-out to the point where they attempted to compete with each other even. No wonder this show received very loud applause as a result, just like their team’s name implied.

There was one funny moment getting leaked out from the backstage. It was the photo of two gentlemen who literally had no idea why they were put in the same line with other talented showmen in the 11th show. Saigo seemed to be deep in thought about how much the staff have spent on props and special effects, while Nishio… He was caught flirting with other participants —Well, let’s hope that he wasn’t flirting with the wrong person there.

Despite the chill and anti-climax vibe that was very contrast to the intense impression from the previous show, the final show performed by team Bakemono was unexpectedly the children’s most favorite! Why was that? The secret of success not only lied in the lyrics of the song, but also its cute and catchy choreography. Moreover, they had also brought in the massive number of candies to throw into the crowd.

And due to some interviews with the parents, they told that this show truly deserved to be the closing show as it was in fact spoke the moral of this spooky event… 

Before the show started, it was a record of five of them chatting with each other. And although it was all according to the script, Asahi confessed that they had retaken it so many rounds he actually lost count of.

And just as the name of their team indicated, they were all wearing the yokāi costumes! For example, Asahi was the Oni, Kohaku was attempting to look like Kasa-obake (even if it came out rather funny), Taria was Karasu tengu, Honoka had animal ears so maybe she was bakeneko or kitsune, and Ayaka wore triangle headband with a kimono to represent the yurēi ghost.

From what live reports said, despite being the performers of the show, both Asahi & Kohaku were noted to really enjoy their time the most —These two spiritual(?) twins loved throwing candies like they’re playing with snow, while Honoka and Ayaka might seem a bit stiff due to their not so great experiences with people. However, Taria was the one making them warm up and enjoy the moment just like other children did —Who else would understand the kids best if not someone with a children’s heart?

*~*~*

Brief Description:

Kaori has reddish-pink hair and pink eyes.

Her academy grades were nothing to look at, with Lee being the only one who scored worse than her during their graduation exam. She has very low stamina, and has little strength. She tries to push herself though, which causes her to pass out often. What she lacks in physical strength, though, she more than makes up in her ability to use Genjutsu. Poisons and Senbon are also incorporated in her abilities, to make her jutsu that more deadly.

Kaori is short-tempered, but it mainly stems from a lack of self esteem in herself. Hates talking about it, so if she's opening up to you, you're special no doubt about it. Really admires Rock Lee and his constant determination and positive outlook on life. Strives to also be like that, but it's hard to change her ways. Will mellow out a bit as she gets older.

[uenodivision]

As close as the darkness of the night was going to veil all over the sky above the town, there was one vehicle with the color as dark as the starless sky driving through the scarlet wind in autumn and finally took its stop right before the peaceful sanctuary of a certain Christian fairy godmother in Ueno.

With almost silent pat on the chill metal, the furoshiki-style parcel was quietly left inside the mailbox in front of her residence until the doorbell is soon heard to the resident of this house, beckoning the nun to rushed over and found the package laying there without any trace of her mysterious sender...

Carefully untying its wrapping cloth, she then noticed a letter placing on top of a box;

“To Heisha-san of Sakurai Clan,

This is our joyous regards from Nara Division! It has been quite rough nowadays after so many events during Hallowern, but here we are delighted to find you the gift to celebrate your special time anyway! Happy Birthday to you, Heisha-san, and also to welcome many more in the future.

May your greatest happiness come find you in no time!

Sincerely,

Nara Division”

Gently glowing in the dark, inside the box was an astounding night light that took its fairytale-like feature after a certain flower known as ‘Lily of The Valley’. And even if this beautiful flower was known to be born with such lethal poison within itself, its flower language was otherwise…

‘The Return of Happiness’

"Wow," Aranai said, whistling as she looked at the nightlight, which was glowing in the middle of the coffee table in the living room. "I'll admit, this is pretty cool. I didn't even know plants could glow in the dark."

"They're, unfortunately, not real, Aranai-chan." Shisuta explained, with a small chuckle as she was sitting down on her living room sofa. "Some plants, however, are able to glow, but only after they've had their DNA spliced with an animal's, like a firefly's. They're called 'bioluminescent plants.'"

"Really?" Aranai questioned, before looking at the plant for a bit, then looking up at the ceiling, deep in thought.

"What is it?" Shisuta asked, looking at her daughter.

"Nothing," Aranai said, still looking at the ceiling. "Just curious, you think we could make it so the cherry blossom trees here in Ueno are able to glow like this?"

"We could, but don't you think that would take away from the cherry blossom's natural beauty?" Shisuta asked.

"...Yeah, that's a fair point." Aranai nodded, before she and her mom sat in silence, letting the nightlight continue to illuminate the entire room.

[edogawa-division]

By the time before it gets dark, surrounding the chapel of Odawara was its unique panorama of the seaside painted with variant dazzling shades of blue.

From the deep cerulean down the sea to the clear and bright azure up above the sky, today was the day the unlikely happy couple of Shinomiya and Shinozaki were soon destined to walk down the aisle together, but now the couple was separated as they were greeting all their surprise guests for taking their precious time to be in at their pledge of love.

And at the bride of Shinozaki’s side, she was soon greeted by one young man whom the A.I. recognized that he was the leader of a certain division that once came to deliver the presents on her dear creator’s birthday.

“Congratulations Ageha-san, and also to Masuzō-san too. I’m the representative from Nara Division. Here we have some little gift to wish you and your soon husband for a happy marriage.”

It was a cute bouquet consisting of pure white roses and baby blue star-shaped tweedias —which the latter has its own flower language in Japanese known as ‘the trusting heart’.

“Actually, I don’t personally know either of you though… But, someone I came to know lately had never stopped telling me to participate today.”

And ‘she’ did spend almost two hours in the flower shop just to pick the perfect flowers for the ‘Sissy’ she said to be somehow grateful for —Yuuya only thought but didn’t add that small truth to the conversation.

However, it was that time a phone in his pocket gave out its own response,

// Hey human, ANGE wanna talk too!

As the boy sensed an aggressive vibration on one side of his jacket, he sighed a bit but still having a soft smile on his face while bringing out his phone so that the bride could see the other ‘guest’ who tagged along with him today

—Instead of a normal home screen, the screen on the boy’s phone was now flooded with bright blue roses and one figure of a certain mobile girl who popped out to give the bride her overly gleeful salutation.

“// Hi hi, sissy A.D.A.! Here we’ve met again! Tee-hee, thanks for guiding me at a certain place back then. ANGE would be even more out of depth than her usual habitat really is if sissy didn’t be around to explain useful things to her that time! Anywayyy, congratulations on your bond with the purple nii-san! ANGE and her human are very super-duper extra happy for your love life! Wellll, Couldn’t wait to see more of what human’s wedding ceremony would be like!

And F that kelp-haired landlord over there why he would be here in your wedding.”

“Hello again, ANGE.” A.D.A smiled. “It's very nice to see you again. Thanks for the gift, by the way.”

A.D.A had let out a laugh as she heard what the young A.I. had called one of Malphas’ groomsmen. “Now come on, ANGE Lan isn't so bad once you get to know him. If you can ignore his habit of constantly scheming. Plus, isn't he also technically the one in charge of you?”

Spiraling into another fit of giggles A.D.A could barely contain herself as she watched ANGE vehemently deny that scheming shark wasn't in charge of her.

“Okay okay Lan isn't in charge of you ANGE. Now tell me, how's your night been? I know it's your first time at a wedding.”

[kofu-division]

*Ringing*

At one point in the morning, the residence of one novelist and the second son of the glorious Enjouji family was suddenly greeted by the loud but jovial doorbell outside of his house.

Reluctantly waking up from his slumber, the self-proclaimed sleeping beauty dragged himself toward the entrance to check o the sudden visitor

—Damn, the morning time was hardly nice for a writer, especially when they had to spend their hours all night long for the unfinished deadline.

However, when he reached his destination, there wasn’t even a single trace left to tell that there was anybody before —Until his viridian eyes spotted something peacefully placing inside the mailbox.

It was a cool-looking bag in the design of a dark fantasy grimoire!

And even if he felt bit dazed at who sent this surprise gift to him, Kei decided to take some look and found a card attached inside the bag

“Happy Birthday & Happy New Year

—From Nara Division”

—A few minutes after Kei went back into his home

There was an edge of something in a jet black color quietly sneaking itself from one blind spot around the corner nearby

“So, that seaweed bishounen is the member of that one division you recommend to keep an eye on?”

“*nods* According to the piece of information I’ve acquired, the leader of this division was somehow responsible for the case of provoking abuse and suicides in school before, and besides, nearly all of this division seems to have some… ‘questionable’ streak that we have to take caution to. However, I’ve never expected you to come along this time —my young master.”

“…Hmm, it was nothing much actually. I just couldn’t believe that the Enjouji had decided to adopt two kids from nowhere into their fucking family. Honestly, don’t you think that they have been a bit too indulgent to their only son?”

“You’re one to talk, my young master. Don’t most in your uncle’s family also come from adoption?”

Kei hummed looking at the bag, although he rubbed his eyes trying to lose that sleepy sensation (he has a reason to call himself sleeping beauty,he like sleep) and with the gift in hands the novelist returns to his bed and look at it again

"it's certainly nice and can be useful for me when i'm looking for inspirations or out in other divisions"-Kei said to himself with a little smile in his red lips

After it he looked at the note again

"Nara division? A nice city but i don't know much about that team"-he said again

After a few moments the novelist out of the bed and go to his walk-in closet with his new bag in hands

Thank you for the gift

[akihabara-division03]

It was such a good afternoon filled with a load of blessing messages and birthday wishes flooding in the super chat of a certain popular gamer and streamer ‘Screen Shot’ of Akihabara, giving an immense rush of joy as she saw how much appreciation she received from her fans.

But during one moment when her round and puppy-like eyes were casting over her lively chatbox, suddenly she encountered a single but very outstanding notification from her own computer popping up on her monitor screen.

// DingDong!

// Care to check your doorstep?

A bit provoking, wasn’t it? She felt like she was being annoyed by a certain sender this morning. But anyway, good luck that she was now in a challenging mood. Let’s hope that it wasn’t from the same sender this time.

Slowly reaching the entrance of her residence, Makina peeking at the eyehole on the door for a primary safety check. However, weirdly enough ... There was no single trace of anyone but a mere medium-sized of box let alone on her doorstep.

…Was it a prank or did Anika order anything from online again?

That was what she thought until she noticed small letters written “Happy Birthday!” and the sender’s name was that one leader of Nara Division.

Therefore, after given a relief that it wasn’t some horrid prank submitted from nowhere, the streamer girl decided it was now her unboxing time!

And then, tada! What came greeting her sight first was a comfy jacket with a screen of a goose (or a duck? Whatever…) holding a knife its beak and a very famous quote she once saw on internet

Lol nobody knew who was the one inspiring the Nara leader to send in this kind of gift…

But it wasn’t only that!

There was also one more package hidden underneath the jacket! This one is somewhat difficult to explain… coming along in with a note which she remembered it was the leader of Miraitabi’s handwriting;

“Hello and Happy Birthday, Setsukura-san!

Cheers and hereto another year with another special regards from my division! But aside from my gift, there was also the other one from my friend —Yeah, that one of your streamer buddies with the symbol of starry sky 🌌, he had gone to visit an aquarium on this summer vacation and bought us some souvenirs, you included! So, it wouldn’t be fair if I don’t give you what is yours, right~?

Here we goes,

Have a good day and hope you like them lol

Yuuya Kanata, Nara Division”

The last present he mentioned was a set of a certain prehistoric meme fish composed of headrest covers with its various expressions, an unforgettable eye mask, and one fluffy plushie of the same fish

…Honestly, how should she feel with this XD

—Happy Birthday Makina 🫰

Makina stared at the little presents before her, the goofy little presents staring back at her.

Uhhhh…

“I think he’s staring into my soul,” Makina deadpanned.

“Which one?” Anika deadpanned back, staring at the same stack Makina was staring at. “The goose hoodie or the school of fish you’ve got sprawled all over your bed?”

Makina picked ip the hoodie, intensely studying the knife-wielding goose printed on it. “Is this an old meme? What even is this from?”

“Ah…” Anika signed. “Probably payback because of the goose gift I gave him back on his birthday.”

“What are you, related?”

“Pffff, now wouldn’t that be something?” Anika laughed and picked up one of the head covers that came with the pack of meme fish gifts. She placed it over Makina’s head and fastened the velcro.

Makina already had a relatively round face. Now with a prehistoric animal meme wrapped around her head…

It really was ridiculous…

And Anika bursted into laughter.

“He’s got good taste in presents!” Anika finally said once her laughter died down.

Makina clicked her tongue and yanked the headpiece off and threw it right into Anika’s face, who let out a loud “OOMF” upon impact.

“I swear, you two are one and the same just going by the gifts you give…” Makina grumbled.

Though Anika didn’t hear it.

Anika wheezed and placed the headpiece back on Makina’s bed. “You know… you should keep this around for those batsus you do on stream.”

Huh…

“You know, you actually come up with good ideas when you put your mind to it for once.”

And Makina made extra sure to sign that carefully so Anika could see it.

NARA MY DARLING I AM SO SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG THANK YOU FOR THE GIFT, MATE

[saitama-division]

As the brightest orb in the sky was now leaning closer to the far horizon of Saitama city, the vast sky above the town was dyed in such enigmatic shades of pink, welcoming the special moment of a certain beloved butterfly mama of D.R.B. since today was apparently her birthday. And even if most of the trees here and there hadn’t yet changed their colors, it still couldn’t deny the fact that the new season after the summer gone had already begun…

Once along with plenty of thoughtful gifts being blessed to Miyuki residence, there was a parcel from a certain place far, faraway from Saitama lying still inside of the house’s mailbox.

Inside of it were a tidy roll of pink scarf which its rim decorated with flowery crochets internationally hand-made to resemble the cute and dainty cosmos flowers or the so-called “ 秋桜 ” (akizakura)’ of autumn.

And the scarf wasn’t not the only gift, there was also a pink paper bag packed with breads cutely stuffed with sweet cream and some fruities arranging after a certain cartoon character from ghibli movies

Looking on the side, there was a card attached along with the message written as such;

“To Miyuki-san of Saitama

First of all, hello Miyuki-san and let me wish you a happy birthday with some presents and regards from my division! And actually, my sister’s birthday is coincidentally on the same day as you too haha… But well, looks like the weather has turned a bit colder since it will soon be delving into the midst of autumn, doesn’t it? So, I think it would be great to keep our home warm and comfy during this period. Oh, and please don’t forget to take care of yourself as well! We hope you and your family will have a good time onwards in this year.

Sincerely,

Yuuya Kanata, Nara Division.”

“Oh nice, Yuuya and his team come up with some pretty cool gifts.” Kureha complimented as she sat on the table in the kitchen watching her mother prepare Yoshiko’s lunch for tomorrow, the brunette turned to her oldest daughter. “Oh, is he a friend of yours?”

“Not really, but I have heard of him, he was pretty popular at school and we only said hi to each other a few times before he graduated high school.” Kureha explained as she brought the bread rolls over to the older woman, earning a thankful smile in response.

“Well, that was kind of him, the weather is getting a bit more chilly so the scarf is going to come in handy and this bread looks so cute…hm…” After contemplating on it, Sayaka took one of the pieces and carefully placed it in Yoshiko’s lunch box, smiling in satisfaction, she wrapped the box up in a decorated cloth and placed it in the fridge for later, grabbing the plate with the remaining bread, she took another one for herself before handing out the last one towards Kureha silently asking if she wanted some. The artist looked at the plate for a second before shrugging and taking the last piece, the mother and daughter duo shared a smile and a light moment as they enjoyed each other’s company and feasted on some sweet treats.

Thank you for the gift!

[birinboom]

Hello dearest darling Em! I am here to ask about HoshiEm, because I think it's adorable and I would like to know more <3

You are taking a trip together - where are you going? What activities are you doing together? What are you most excited about on your trip? Which of you hates packing the most?

Also if you feel like it, tell me a little about your man, because I don't know him 🎤

🤍🫂

Aaaaaah, my darling Roxy-Rose, thank you so so much for sending me this!!! 😭💖💖💖

We’re going on a trip!

He and I met in Tokyo, but Hoshina is actually from the Kansai region (Osaka/Kyoto/Nara/etc). So we’re taking a trip back to his home. We’re mostly planning on sightseeing, which is something I enjoy a lot, and he enjoys finding new places to show me. We can easily spend a whole day just wandering around one of the older parts of Kyoto and taking in the sights. I’m really looking forward to seeing new things and eating new food, and feeding some tame deer, and also just getting to spend some uninterrupted time with him, he’s always so busy.

Which of us hates packing the most?

That’s probably me 😅 I always panic a little bit thinking I’ve forgotten something so I spend a lot of time making lists and double and triple checking everything, and I end up packing way too much. I don’t know why but I’m unable to pack light, even if I put genuine effort into it. Hoshina, on the other hand, can fit everything he needs into a small duffle bag and I hate him a little bit for it. 

Tell me a little about him

So, funny story. My husband and I watched Kn8 together. At one point he came into my office while I had a piece of fanart of Hoshina on my screen, and said ‘oh is that who you like now? Isn’t he kind of an asshole?’

And he’s right. Hoshina is kind of an asshole and I still love him.

I’m gonna put my ramblings under a cut ‘cause there will be spoilers. And I don't know how to be brief. Cue that drawing of me wordlessly crying while pointing to a picture of him.

Kaiju no. 8 takes place in a world where kaiju (ie. monsters) regularly attack humanity. They vary vastly in both size and the way they attack. Some are human-sized, or smaller, some are about the size of a minivan, and some tower over the tallest skyscrapers (this part is important for later) 

Enter the Japan Anti-Kaiju Defense Force. Hoshina is the vice-captain of the 3rd division, which is centered in West Tokyo. He comes from a long line of swordsmen and kaiju slayers, but while he’s excellent with swords and very capable of dealing with smaller and mid-sized kaiju, guns are needed for the biggest ones. And he’s shit at using guns. 

Because of this, pretty much everybody in his life has been telling him that he should just give up. He’s not gonna make it, he’s just gonna cause trouble and get himself killed. The only one who believed in him is his now-captain, Mina. She’s the opposite of Hoshina, she’s excellent with guns but terrible with bladed weapons. And she believed that the two of them could compliment each other’s fighting styles enough to give him a genuine chance.

So this is where the asshole part comes into play. Because now Hoshina has the rank of vice-captain, he’s to a certain extent in charge of dealing with new recruits, and he WILL haze them. There’s one omake ending of the manga -which sadly never made it into the anime- where he’s overseeing a new recruit doing pushups as a punishment, he’s counting out loud, and then he starts counting backwards.

He’s an asshole in that whenever there’s a conflict that doesn’t directly involve him, he bursts out laughing. He will also quite readily tease people. But he takes his role as vice-captain very seriously. He’s ready to risk his life to keep people safe. He’ll go up against kaiju too big for him to handle if he has to, if nothing else then to buy time until someone better suited to fight them arrives.

It’s also shown that once he likes someone, he’ll go a long way to help them. It’s implied that he’s the one training the most promising of the new recruits (Kikoru) in using her axe, and he decides on his own to train the main character, Kafka, in hand to hand combat. 

(‘Course that last one only happens after Hoshina threatened Kafka with what turned out to be a very realistic rubber knife because he apparently holds grudges like a mofo)

I love him. I love his Kansai-accent. I love the way his voice goes nasal when he’s complaining about something. I love how he nearly always has his eyes closed. I love the shiver down my spine when he opens his eyes (shit’s most likely about to get serious!) I love his oversized canines. I love his stupid bowl-cut. I love the way he’s one of the few male characters (if not the only one) to use ‘boku’ about himself (and I have thoughts on WHY he does that!)

I love that he’s a bit of an asshole. I want him to tease me.

The sun was now starting to disappear from the horizon as the shade of numerous colors mixed in together at the time of dusk —And that was the same time Shirazuki household had been visited by some unexpected guest at her doorstep.

But when the ex-idol had gone out to check it up, she only found a package neatly wrapped in a beautiful piece of cloth hanging around the handle of the door instead of any sight of its sender.

Deciding to inspect it first for safety reasons, she cautiously unwrapped the parcel until she saw what had been sent to her residence.

First one she saw was a knitted scarf with the design of an adorable but insightful animal, the ‘Barn Owl’,

Next was a set of cute macarons which was actually the scented candles with a sweet and fruity mixed berries fragrance,

And last one was an elegant set of twelve necklaces in the theme of zodiac star signs,

Last but not least, there was a card written “Happy Birthday & Happy New Year!” submitted with the address from the people of Nara Division

—Somewhere in a car that was heading out of Minato ward—

“Really, you should put the birthday card outside of the furoshiki,”

the young(?) man with shades said as he just casually opened a can of tuna in his grasp, not even caring that he was in someone else’s car,

“or somewhere else more easier to see —Receiving something from the seemingly anonymous sender normally startles the person who used to be at the center of the limelight, you know?”

A cold glare was pointed to the speaker from the driver seat.

“I don’t wanna hear that from someone who almost caused a ruckus in Ms. Queen Card’s birthday the previous October,”

the much older man in his usual dark colored suit retorted with somewhat hostility in his tone.

“Aww~ Don’t talk about the water under the bridge, shall we?”

that enigmatic nonconformist shrugged in an unserious manner while he was savoring his quick supper.

“That queenie is already pretty smart on her own. I know she would know in a heartbeat that the little gift I added to Misaki’s thingies was more like a greeting toy than some real threat —Well, wouldn’t we all live for some excitement?”

As the shades he always oddly wore indoors and outdoors still covered all parts of his eyes, the older man couldn’t make a guess of what was actually in this shitty cat’s head.

Turning away from his troublesome accomplice, Chishio let out a long sigh as he fought down his own urge to pack this cat in some blank luggage and send it back to where he should belong. To be honest, maybe the reason why he often got disturbed by his antics was because it reminded him so much of himself when he was with his young master and the kids in his team.

…And he never understood what in the world had made Shūkaidō think that his earnest young master could replace him when the adoptive son of his was the troublesome person like THIS of all time.

Miku blew out the match and watched as the wick on her new candles that laid on top of some trays on her bedroom floor caught aflame. A small, delicate fire that allowed the mixed berry scents to fill her room.

Surrounding her on the floor was a ring of unscented candles.

With an exhale, she tilted her head back and closes her eyes, canceling out everything around her, including the owl scarf that rested on her shoulders. Cancelling the sound of her beautiful new With her nose, she breathed in the unfamiliar scent, her ears focused on the white noise that played on her computer and the light chimes from her new necklaces that hung on her jewelry altar, and zeroing in on the heat that rose from the candles around her.

“My circle is cast.”

Thank you for the gifts!

[shinagawa-division]

After silently arriving at his destination, the old attendant named ‘Chishio’ picked a small package wrapped within a neat piece of cloth out of his pocket and put it inside the mailbox in front of the Okada residence, not forgetting to submit a card with the message “Happy Birthday and Happy New Year! —from Nara Division” along with them.

The gifts that those kids in the division have picked for Ritsuko were a set of coasters designed after specimens of human’s brain and a bottle of colorful temari candies. For some tidbits, the candies were symbolized after some traditional ball toys called ‘Temari’ which were often gifted to children on New Year’s day to wish for their happiness. And apparently, one of many reasons why kids crave sweet things is because the principal energy for human’s brain is also glucose —the end product from breaking down most sugars. What a good match for the presents(?)

“And hey. If you seem that scared, why do you follow me here in the first place huh, little miss?”

Chishio frowned a bit as he noticed a small creature snuggling around his shoes after it spending a brief moment running around and checking the new environment it had visited.

…Wait, why was that kid’s kitty stalking him again today?

Gently picking the kitten up from the ground, the old man muttered something as if he was talking with her.

“I knew my master doesn’t really like cats much due to some allergy he has to your fur, but I’m sure that he has never done something rude to you as well. So, why can’t you just stay there and enjoy your time with your owner instead of running around like this? Outside is full of harm, just you know.”

The old man sighed. For whatever he had spoken out just now, there was no way the petite feline in his arms could neither understand nor answer him anyway.

—How ridiculous can this be? He could persuade that smart kid not to tag along with him in almost dangerous places but couldn’t do that with his cat.

“…Fine, let’s go home Ojou-chan. At least you make a less annoying companion than the other ‘cat’ I know.”

Ritsuko plucked a Temari from the bowl and rolled it around her fingers, inspecting the small treat. How amusing, she thought as she popped it in her mouth and began to chew, it was indeed sweet and it scratched at her sweet tooth nicely. Those specimens from Nara were quite intriguing, not only due to their gift giving habits but also because of the members themselves, the scientist made a mental note to do more research on them, she had a feeling that they may prove useful to her.

Thank you for the gift!

Hypmic OC Halloween Party 2023 🎃 ~Part I

Once the night of 31rd October has already come to the town, who knows? Something extra supernatural is bound to happen!

Disclaimer: Please note that these are not the actual titles to the songs, I just made them up of course. All these songs obviously belong to their respective artists,

And the OCs mentioned belong to their respective creators as well!

To be honest, at first I attempted to make the cast match with their headcanon VCs but considered giving it up at some point because if I did that, some names would be brought up too often *side-glancing at Yuuya, Saigo, and Yorii* 

Surprisingly, almost every song happens to have their own English subtitles available, so open them up if you’d like to know something. I’ll leave more details in your imagination then (¬‿¬)

If you feel tempted to do the fanarts, please feel free to do it XD

So, now. Isn’t it time to let the Feast begins?

🎃 Behind the scenes Pt.1

Even though there are other divisions and some participants which may not be mentioned above, they’re all invited and have their own parts in this event as well. For examples;

Himari Asami, Hiroshi Sakura, and Suzuran Minazuki (who was on the request of her non-blood-related cousin) were in charge of designing and making costumes with the assistance of three fashion interns; Aimi Miyazaki, Alice Shiroka, and Umi Kobayashi.

Akira Arai, Natsume Kurome, Kururi Yamamura and Queen Card’s team were noted to took part in making props. By the way, Kureha Koizumi was anticipated to participate in this as well but she unexpectedly showed up in the opening show —much to everyone’s surprise.

Reiaki Suzubayashi and Emiko Akaibara showed to work together on helping the cast prepare themselves before entering the stage.

Chiyuri Seiguni was tasked to be the main operator of most special effects on stage via the brief from the real technician, Raiden Otoha since this one had to take his part in the 7th show.

Aiko Mayeda was the D.J. and he got the party started! The 86 band and other musical units associated with other division members were also joined in to provide music for some songs.

Most choreography throughout the shows were designed and coached by Yeong Hajoon, Haruto Morikawa, and Kaede Iwasawa.

The representative of Snowflake Sentinel News, Yoichi Shujo; and the head of a certain publishing-house, Nellie Yukimura were assigned to deliver the details of this event. Please expect more live reports and some tidbits behind the scenes from them.

The foods and drinks in this event were all supplied by the alliance between Luis Kōkyū, Rashaad Young, Harumatsuya shop, and Rikiya farm.

The main sponsors of the previous event are Sigma Inc., Toi Pharmaceutical, and E.L. Medical Co. Therefore, this time it’s the turn of Wonder⇓anD Sound Systems, Arakawa Tech Industries, and the concert venue was organized by the entertainment agency “Kairiku Production” with the cooperation of Queen Card’s league. 

For some reason, a certain division was banned from participating —to be specific, it’s Ginza Division. However, Eiji Noguchi and his family were secretly invited because his children wanted to come.

At first Fusao Ise and Queen card were honored to be the MCs (or the hosts) of this event but because the latter had to ‘prepare’ for her own part in the 11th show, Reika Aichi was surprisingly nominated to take over this role once again alongside Fusao.

At the beginning, all the cast were seen wearing some kind of masquerade mask before their first show started.

Though not every division was present in the 3rd show, there were flags with symbols of each team ever participated in the D.R.B. showing on stage.

For whatever reason, Aranai Norikoru was the one who delivered the line “Toki wo (Shout)!” before the chorus “Kakumei wa matte (The revolution has succeeded)!” was sung by all divisions. Well, someone in the cast seemed visibly displeased with how this turned out.

Despite the 6th show being performed by Yuuya Kanata and Yorii Sakuma, the one who advised them on the lyrics was their senior musician, Ren Nakashima, and the music provider for this show was none other than the 86 Band

Before two boys of the 6th show left the stage, the camera caught both Yuuya and Yorii high-fiving Ren who was up for the next show…

▶︎ TO BE CONTINUE IN PT. 2…

Oh, and there were part 2 of course! Maybe other OCs might join in the cast there~~

...Happy Halloween & hoping y’all enjoy it :)

[obihiro-division]

Once upon a clear weather amidst the hot and humid summer, finally a super glorious day had just rolled around in Obihiro! And because this day was none other than another anniversary of Daiki Kamiyama’s grand debut into this world, an unstoppable flux of presents submitted over to his home sweet home was obviously to be expected!

Noticing something hanging on his apartment’s door handle, the young lad unexpectedly found a mysterious parcel neatly wrapped in a furoshiki-style.

He did remember Jack once warned him not to receive a gift from strangers but whom does that grown-ass butler think he was lecturing? Today is his birthday and it would be his right to take a look at his own present, would it?! Besides, for those who don’t know; being a little bit nosy was the basic startup of every heroism!

Deciding to snoop a little peek at his new present with curiosity, there he found a set of multicolor MLG sunglasses...

And those were not only just them! There was another gift sending along as well —which is a particular box, and inside this box is full of… What? Fish?

Moreover than that, they were all so colorful… Yeah, now it seemed like he has got himself the rainbow taiyaki…

One more thing left at last inside this beautiful packaging; it was a tiny card written in glittery pink lying there among the gifts, saying;

“Happy Birthday Mr. Paladin☆

Every hero is in need of gorgeous gadgets and no army could march on its empty stomach, therefore here you go~ A full set of rainbow power!

Hope you enjoy our gifts ;)

—Nara Division”

—————————

Rest well and get better soon! 🍀

The young man was bouncing with excitement… His first gift! Two of them!! From people he's never actually met?! He was mentally thanking Hisoka for allowing him the opportunity to be in the D.R.B. Never in his life had he been given such nice gifts and words from potential friends. Taking the sunglasses and placing them carefully on his coffee table, Daiki snuck another peek at the colorful taiyaki assorted in a circle, grinning widely. That was until his gray eyes slowly drifted to the small clock on his wall.

“Oh bloody- I'm gonna be late for the morning patrol!” Daiki suddenly exclaims. Stuffing a taiyaki into his mouth, he chokes down the delicious treat as he fastens his mask over the lower half of his face and buckles his helmet under his chin. Underneath his goggles, he teared up at the tastiness of the fish-shaped pastries before he slammed the door behind him. No hero can be late for their duties, not even the great PALADIN!

Thank you for the gift! And for the words to rest. Having to hold back from working when I should rest was hard. (´-_ゝ-`)

[fukuokanodivision]

Dark yet having never been shinier without the flashy nightlights in the middle of a concrete jungle known as ‘Fukuoka’, just when the rookie choreographer named ‘Mai Yousei’ or the shady ‘Shuiro’ of OverDrive was relaxing themselves at home after returning from their bustle belated birthday party with their teammates —Out of the electric blue, suddenly without any warning, the whole sources of lights in their house have all gone out by an unknown cause, leaving every inch of their home in the midst of pitch black…

…What is just happening?! Wait, is this a blackout?

Looking around in fidgety, the dancer felt somewhat at loss in the darkness called their own home. Even if they were no doubt at their own place, the darkness from a mysterious blackout has just turned their most familiar place into a maze unknown to them.

However, it was as if something in the electricity wasn’t in a mood to prank this youngest member of Fukuoka’s 2nd team that much since soon Mai then caught a glimpse of some light flickering in her living room.

Approaching closer for investigation, all of sudden, a big bright arrow was showing up on the display screen of digital television which Mai was more than certain that it used to be turned off before. And with its head pointing at the direction of her house’s entrance, The self-proclaiming ‘puppet master’ followed her one and only clue to the door and discovered that there was something delivered at their doorstep.

Resting quietly on the floor, they finally found a present package with a number of miniature birthday cakes and delicious desserts filled inside …Besides, there was a note that came along with it;

“Happy belated Birthday (and maybe your team anniversary??), Yousei-san!

Wish you a nice year onwards, and also as for the gift you have sent me previously; here please have these little gifts I sent you as my thanks —Ah, but please don’t forget that none of them is made to be eaten! They are aroma candles with their sweet scents matching each dessert they take shape after. Therefore, may you enjoy your precious time!

Sincerely,

Yuuya Kanata, Nara Division”

—————————

[Mod’s message: Perhaps you haven’t enable the ‘Allows asks with media’ in the setting so that people can’t submit pictures to the ask!]

Mai’s eyes feasted on the desserts and candles. It was one thing to receive mini desserts on a belated birthday, But aroma dessert candles? That was truly a surprise.

“Let’s get you little ones up into the room. We can’t have you guys without a proper change of scenery.” Mai spoke aloud, Shuffling the candles around their room and putting a few in the ‘Escape Space.’ Resting on her bed, Their vermilion eyes also captivated on the desserts.

“I’ll save you all for tomorrow, Onii-san and Yuno-chin should taste these.” Mai prompted, Setting them in a small cupboard for safe keeping.

“That was nice of Kanata-san. Miraitabi really is flocking up on popularity, We gotta keep from getting rusty too~!” Mai thought, Heading back downstairs to find her father sitting on the couch.

“Dad, You’ve noticed them haven’t you…?”

[Thank you for the gift! + The reminder!]

[uenodivision]

As the sun was still shining brightly in the first day of November, there was yet another visitor stopping by at one flower shop in Ueno.

This time the visitor was a young man with pink fluffy hair and a tatsumaki headband.

“Pardon my intrusion~ Oh, ohayo☆ Happy birthday and glad to see you today, Heisha-san.”

Greeting the nun with a big hearty smile on his face, the boy walked up closer to the flower shelf where Shisuta was standing

“My name is Asahi from the Harumatsuya shop in Nara!  And I’ve come here today as the representative of my team! YuuYu was going to relay presents at other division so he sadly can't come today. Most importantly… We’ve got some presents for you as well!”

With such a jovial voice, he handed something over to the birthday lady.

“This one was a handmade bookmark from him. He told me he had found this four-leaf clover once during one of his time doing the club activity with his friends in the park, and that time he was kinda into the resin art too. So, he decided to make one himself.”

“Four-leaf clover doesn’t only mean someone a good luck. I heard that each of their leaves are said to stand for four things. The first leaf is for hope, the second is for faith, the next is for love, and therefore the last one is for luck. In my opinion, I really think that it would suit your liking! And here, let’s move to the next gift~”

Asahi opened his bag and picked one paper box out of it carefully. He looked so proud when he opened its lid to showed what’s inside to her.

“Proudly presented from my family store! This is the nerikiri set I made myself! After all, flower designs and such are my specialty! I bet it would go even better if eaten together with some hot green tea.”

“Lastly, these are from Saigo-san. Speaking about tea and he actually gives Heisha-san the teacups haha. They’re the product from his cousin who loves ceramics though. Pouring some tea in these and they will look like there is literally a fish swimming inside. Kinda having the wabi-sabi feelings to me, I think?”

As the nun looked at all of the items presented by the wagashi maker, a smile appeared on her face as she bowed respectfully to him.

"Thank you very much, Tomoharu-san," Shisuta said, still smiling. "I am truly grateful for these."

Feeling she needed to reciprocate the young man for his kindness, Shisuta turned around for a brief second and began pulling out an assortment of flowers before gently placing them in a vase full of water.

"Please, take these." Shisuta said, handing him a bouquet of Dahlias. "Dahlias are a very beautiful flower. Not only because of their appearance, but because they symbolize compassion and kindness, which is what you and your companions have shown today." Bowing once more, Shisuta bid the young pink-haired man a farewell before looking at the treasures he had left behind. Smiling at the bookmark, she tucked it away, making sure to use it later.

She was truly in awe of the teacups that Asahi's teammate had given her. As she bit into one of the wagashi left for her, she was a bit upset that she didn't have any tea to good with them. It would have been a good time to utilize Saigo-san's gift. But she promised herself she would definitely use them at her earliest connivence.

[akihabaradivision]

Once the famous albino YouTuber went checking up her residence’s mailbox in the late morning, she then found a furoshiki-style wrapping package neatly put among a pile of gifts she had received as both treats of last night’s Halloween and her birthday presents from many friends she has gained through her countless paranormal journeys.

And with two arms full of her acquaintances’ good wills, Criss had finally managed to take all of them into her home —meaning that it’s now boxing time!

Opening each box up one after another, finally she had come across that one peculiar-looking package. After unwrapping it, she found an envelope attached inside;

“Greetings, Hiromi-san of Akihabara. Happy birthday and these are some little presents I and my team got for you! At first I thought of directly handing them to you at school, but because your classmates told me that you rarely attend classes. Thus, I thought of sending our presents to your home instead.

The first one is from me. It’s the Pikachu power bank! Keep this cute lil guy with you whenever you go outside for the journey and I’m sure he’ll be of use someday. I know it isn’t funny when your phone somehow ends up dead in a place you don’t know. 

And next, it’s from my bestie Asahi, he has made you some Halloween nerikiri! Guess the air of festival still lives on even if time has passed haha.

P.S. But I think it’ll be better for your own sake if you consider not skipping classes too often. Some places are really dangerous especially when things get dark —Welp, it isn’t only because I’m still scared of horror things of course. One thing I’m sure of is that teachers, your classmates, and your girlfriend are worried about you.

—Lastly, hoping you (and me) get good marks on the next exam

Yuuya Kanata,

Nara Division.”

"Eeee! It's so cute!" Criss squealed, hugging the small Pikachu power cord close. She had loved Pokemon when she was younger, but as her interests got more and more towards ghosts and the paranormal, her love for the popular manga and anime series slowly waned. She couldn't even begin to tell you all about all the new Pokemon that had been created now! She still liked it, but not as much as ghosts or exploring. But she was definitely having to get back into after getting this adorable charger!

Reading the rest of the letter, the paranormal investigator sighed as her friend's words reminded her of Keiko's and her teacher's. She knew that she had to do better with her classes. She wasn't failing, as she always made sure to keep up with her classes and homework. It was for this reason that she'd be glad when she was done with school, so she could just do like her friend, Nikki, and spend her time exploring, making money that way. But that was never going to change if she didn't graduate first.

"Maybe I should get some studying first..." Criss spoke out loud to herself, sighing. "Exams are coming up and I don't want to fail."

"But first!" Criss declared, picking up the sweet pastry treats still on the plate. "I should eat these. They look to good not to be eaten."
