#yttd band au

[hearts401]

my cousin got me obsessed w band aus and i cant stop thinking abt the yttd guys in a band

[jellomphetamine]

ogata's turn to die (sprite under the cut)

decided to replay yttd and finish everything thats out and im sooo in love with the game... waiting for the next chapter now. i can't stop thinking of how gk characters would act if they were put in a death game, i feel like it's kind of fitting? whoever wins gets all the gold. gonna be mulling over this au in my head forever lmao. ogata would probably be the sou-like figure with very complicated behavior. but in short he'd try to leech of off the groups success and would use people for his advantage :) i really want to draw usami in this style too but its so unrealistic he would just kill everyone immediately haha

🎃 Happy Halloween 🎃

Video below (TW: EYE STRAIN, GLITCHES, SPOILERS?)

Do not say anything bad about my skills (or lack thereof) of movie making lol I just wanted to do a halloween art, but then I starting adding more and more and I did a video out of it, oopsies

It is not really a canon in my Your Turn To Live AU (can I call it that??? It exists more in my head than anywhere else), but a thing I just came up just because (because even here I have to add some angst... Gosh, really, goldyluna?).

Maple:he is, and I love that about him. After I realized how terrible sou was to me, I can't imagine anyone I'd rather date. Oh, what a coincidence he's talking to him right now

(I know she was programmed to love him, but like she really didn't deserve that in this au she's not)

Y/n:Listen here, you seaweed haired piece of shit if you dare come close to that sweet angel girl again, I will rip out that majority vote body of yours until not even one human part is left

Midori:........

[tsukimisou-shoutsuyori]

FLOORMASTER PARTICIPANTS AU

uhmmuhhh okkaayyy sososososooo i wannnaa make like a yttd au where all the participants are floormasters and the floormasters + maple and the dummies are participants

but who would be wHat kind of floormaster is the qeustion!!! Sara would most likely be something samurai related Joe i'm not sure.. peanut butter dog? that could work Shin..? i knoww its overused but maybe something mint wolf/sheep related, since in game Shin was like a sheep in wolves clothing he could be a wolf in sheeps clothing? haha set it off reference keijiii uh hh cop related ig,, i dont like him sooo ACAB!! Kanna flowers blue butterflies Reko uhhm.. band related obviously Same with Alice but hes sad like safalin Gin zombie cat dog Kai breakfast theme Cubetaro Hamburger Nao can be painter related and Mishi can be the painting Thinking about Shin again he could be an AI but with the red scarf and act like Hiyori along with having the creepy eyessss he can also have the minty stuff like always BABY YOURE a HAUNTYED HOUUUUSEE BETTER FIND ANOTHR SUPERSTITIONNN WE'RE GONNA STAY IN LOVE SOMEHOW CAUSE BABY YOURE A HAUNYED HOUSE NOWWW

[princesseevee06]

How're the dummies in the Your Turn Ryoko AU?? 🫣

how are the dummies? not doing too great. courtesy of the uh, whole “dying and being brought back as dolls” thing

okok but in all seriousness, i assume you are asking who takes the role of each dummy in ytr! tbh, i haven’t focused as much on the dummies because i’ve been busy fleshing out the main cast (and especially because the dummies just canonly play smaller roles), so i’m gonna format this a little differently from the main cast/floormaster posts, and have smaller tidbits on each swap ;; i hope that’s okay!

as a general assessment, though: the chap 3 subgame remains relatively the same in premise, with one dummy being paired with each survivor. i wanted to take a little bit of a different approach for the pairings, though, and so depending on the “route” (yes i did incorporate branching paths into ytr as well) different characters are paired with each other.

but, as for the actual swaps…

Anzu Kinashi > Ranmaru Kageyama

Q-taro Burgerberg > Anzu Kinashi

Alice Yabusame > Naomichi Kurumada

Reko Yabusame > Shunsuke Hayasaka

Gin Ibushi > Mai Tsurugi

Keiji Shinogi > Hinako Mishuku

now for some tidbits!!!

- i’m aware anzu is already a dummy in canon, but i wanted her to take ranmaru’s spot so she could be paired with ryoko because. girls (this is literally just how i decide things for my au) (i think “huh this would be neat” and make it a reality)

- and yes depending on the route she does try to, and succeeds at, killing somebody (i’m sorry ❤️). i wanted to try and make it a bit more sympathetic than with logic ranmaru though, and show that she really agonizes over it but ultimately her survival instinct wins out (i always thought it was interesting how anzu says things like “this is why we can’t possibly work with you guys!” when she’s scared etc. and so i kinda wanted to play on her fear pushing her into doing things she regrets)

- with keiji i wanted to go with the idea that, yes he is human, but he isn’t an entirely different person pretending to be a dummy like fake hinako was, he’s a human survivor blending in with the dummies (i’m not entirely sure how this would work since that means he’d have to had somehow avoided the main games. but i’m attached to this idea so i wanna make it work somehow). so my idea is while he does work with asunaro in this au, it’s more of a “malicious compliance” type thing where he acts as a double agent and is actually on the side of the participants. if that makes any sense…

reko, alice, q-taro and gin don’t have as many changes to their personalities/circumstances here so i have less to say about them but there are still some things! for example:

- alice never “killed” sou here, so he never went to jail. that also means him and reko have a more stable relationship here, and theyre actually still in a band together :) they also act a bit different since they didn’t have to cope with the trauma of alice’s murder case, so more similar to the “ai personalities” (which makes sense i guess, since they are ai here!)

- q-taro and gin act pretty much the same. or i guess, the same as their yttd chapter 1 selves. rest assured that even though gin takes mai’s role here, he does not try to attack anyone (even though it would be really funny). q-taro, on the other hand, i can’t say the same for…

this still ended up being a little long even though i said these would be tidbits…oopsie. well, have an anzu doodle while you’re here!

Alice: The drummer can't drum

Alice: The bass player can't play

[beanieman]

YTTD Celebrity AU

Sara Chidouin - Sara is a well known news anchor. She’s known for finding scoops no other reporters can through her charisma. 

Joe Tazuna - Joe is famous by association with Sara. He’s known for popping up in her news reports to tell jokes or just talk to the camera like it’s a friend. He lightens up Sara’s normally professional attitude and the fans hope Joe will join Sara as a crew member one day. 

Gin Ibushi - Gin stared in a dog food commercial that really blew up and ended up reaching meme status (kind of like the Jake from state farm commercial). 

Keiji Shinogi - The entire fandom seems to simp over him so lets make him a famous model. He’s a very polarizing figure after shooting his first boss in what he claims was self defense during an argument. People hire him if they believe “all publicity is good publicity.). 

Alice and Reko Yabusame - You don’t have to change a lot for these two. Reko is already famous for her singing, and if Alice stayed in a band with her he’d probably be big too. 

Kazumi Mishima and Nao Egokoro - Mishima is a famous artist. His paintings go for large amounts of money and are hung in many museums. He mentors Nao who wants to be just as talented and big as Mishima is. 

Q-taro Burgerberg - Q-Taro is famous for his baseball skills. He’s on of the most talented players Japan has ever seen. Everyone at least knows his name even if they don’t keep up with sports. 

Kai Satou - Kai is a famous chief and has his own cooking show. He has one of the shows watched by Mothers early on Saturday morning. He’s not well known by anyone not in that demographic but he enjoys his small quiet success.   

Kanna Kizuchi - Kanna acts along with Kugie in a sitcom. I don’t have a lot to add to this. 

Shin Tsukimi - Shin is famous in online space’s. He’s a streamer who teaches about hacking and plays video games. He’s well known for his angry and frantic reactions to horror games. 

Dolls

Ranmaru Kageyama - Ranmaru runs a podcast that’s well known by teenagers. He has very chill vibes and his podcast feels a lot like you’re listening to a friend. 

Naomichi Kurumada - Naomichi is a famous boxer. He has a win streak that very few have managed to beat. He interacts with a lot with his fans through social media and is well loved for it. 

Anzu Kinashi - Anzu is an acrobat/performer. Her stunts aren’t always the most graceful or successful but she can always make what she does funny. She’s good for a laugh and is more famous for that then she is her acrobat career. 

Mai Tsurugi - Mai is a movie actor! She’s known for being able to turn her emotions on and off on a whim. She plays either the love interest or a slasher with no in between. 

Shunsuke Hayasaka - Shunsuke is the least famous celebrity. He runs a well known and respected business blog. He’s famous in the business circle but if you weren’t interested in that sort of thing it would be like he didn’t exist at all. 

Hinako Mishuku - Hinako is a YouTuber. People think she’s playing a pessimistic character for a humor aspect. She’s not, she’s just cynical as a person. 

The basics of this AU is Sara gets assigned to learn more about the lives of celebrities, and ends up finding a found family in the process. 

[tinkonka]

things that have happened in my yttd au

this is your typical ‘au where nobody dies and they just happen to know eachother’ but all the participants are very close and... i’ve just thought up random scenarios n headcanons to go along with it. (also a lot of these r influenced by .shintsukimistan’s headcanons so please check out their blog if you wanna see good headcanons!) canon ships in this au: joemaru, keiji x kai, rekonao. (we also have hinakanna but im not really sure about shipping children, so we’ll just place it as platonic for now :] ) long post undercut

- q-taro is very very competitive, and he’s confident in his sports ability. so one time, joe challenged q-taro to a round of twister, in which q-taro obviously one, but then kai was like ‘i’d like to have a go.’ q-taro is like very intimidated by kai lol so he’s tryna impress him, and a move calls for kai to put his hands on, let’s say red. q-taro’s leg is in the way. queue kai doing a backbend and landing flawlessly. And keiji was laughing his ass off. like everytime you remind him of this he’ll laugh.

- they were all sleeping over at mishimas house on thanksgiving. unfortunately mishima lives next to a person who’s a spider enthusiast, and a tarantula got loose and ended up right next to gin somehow.  he woke up and screamed, every1 came running in (except for shin he kinda just walked in n then turned around saying ‘nope nope nope’) EVERY1 WAS SCREAMING and kai just *calmly places it in a jar* 

- nao: babe. wake up. please. i need to tell you something. honey. wake u- reko: what is so important that you had to wake me up at 4am on a tuesday nao: i love you - one time q-taro was drunk, and he gets competitive as hell. he was sitting at a table with kai, joe, keiji and alice, going On and On about how he was the strongest. joe dared him 2 arm wrestle keiji and in doing so, keiji got ready and simply just slammed his hand down before joe started counting (it took him off guard) keiji is smug as hell so q-taro is yelling that it wasn’t fair n keijis going ‘haha lol guess you aren’t the strongest’ and q-taro was progressively getting more annoyed

- kai is a stickler for proper posture and one time whacked shin in the back with his ladle thingy (is it called a ladle)... shin got a bruise LOL  - gonna talk about the ships for a little! reko and nao have been dating for 1 yr n 4 months. they met at a cafe (lol classic cafe au ooo) and reko was just entranced with nao’s hair. she went up to go say that (she doesn’t like to just ogle in silence lol) and nao told her she looked really cool. they exchanged numbers after small talk, and nao confessed 2 months later. very healthy relationship, yin to eachothers yang :]

- still not sure about keikai?!? how they’d date n stuff.. they’re both very reserved.. maybe kai wld confess

- ranmaru confessed w a letter! after being talked into it by sara, he wrote a note to joe telling him to meet at their hangout spot after school. joe came n was like ‘hey someone said 2 meet here have u seen them- OH WAIT’ it was a very slow confession.. ranmaru was very nervous. made it clear his feelings for joe were beyond friendship. joe asked him what being romantic w eachother meant, n ranmaru explained. joe didnt realize his feelings for maru were romantic up until that moment, and accepted his confession :D he and ranmaru sat down and joe asked him about what he felt comfy and uncomfy w, and talked about what they shld n shldn’t talk ab. it was sweet. they told the others soon later. 

- speaking of others, i mentioned this before, but best friend squad!! ryoko, joe, sara, anzu, ranmaru and kugie are all friends! :D joe and sara and ryoko were friends prior, and anzu was ryokos friend (they were both in band). after ryoko introduced anzu to joe and sara, ranmaru came along and anzu befriended him, introducing him 2 joe sara n ryoko. then kugie got expelled from her last school and came 2 the school.. sara befriended her quite easily bc she does not take shit from anyone and kugie found that attractive LOL and boom! bsf squad! they hang out often! (i’ll make headcanons ab them later lol)

- hinako and kanna met at school :D they were paired 2gether for a project, n kanna was REALLY scared of her at first. but after like a few minutes she realized hinako wasn’t that scary n actually kinda nice (hinako was exhausted that day, if she wasn’t she probably would’ve tried 2 scare kanna a lil more tmjiwt). kanna and hinako became friends after that, hinako did have a bad case ‘ohh is she pretending to like me?’ but it quickly faded after kanna did kind things out of the blue. they have sleepovers like a lot (n they cuddle platonically :D its just kanna going ‘..hinako’ ‘yes’ ‘can kanna be cradled’ ‘okay’ and then they fall asleep like that)

- joe: hey you two are kinda similar (to ranmaru and shin). you’re both kinda quiet, kinda emo, skinny, kinda good with tech, n ur both relatively the same height *ranmaru and shin look at eachother* ranmaru: yeah except i dont look like this *over exaggeratedly slouches* shin: .___.

[sou-ver-2-0]

So this is really random, but sonetimes Nankidai's festival sketches haunt the back of my brain like: sure, the group saved Shin from Sou, but what about the aftermath? Did anyone make sure he was getting home safe? :< Was he too rattled to sleep that night? What went through his mind after the festival? I wonder abt this a lot...

That’s a really good question. Not just about the summer festival arc, but about Shin’s character in general. Because I think it’s pretty clear within the canon narrative that Alice murdering Sou did not “save” Shin. Shin was still hurting even when his abuser was no longer a physical presence in his life. Sou’s shadow still loomed in Shin’s mind. So it’s worthwhile to talk about how “saving someone” isn’t that easy.

“What happened today, Sou-san? Your face looks a bit…” “…haha. I guess I’m not feeling well. I’m… going home.”

Before I go further, this ask inspired me to re-read Nankidai’s summer festival arc on the YTTD wiki, and I highly encourage it to anyone who hasn’t read it yet! You can find the whole story under the page “Nankidai 2020 tweets/c,” which is filed under “Twitter transcripts.” The wiki provides a translation, but sometimes I found it useful to check out the links to the original tweets and read other fan translations in the replies for clarification.

Even though the premise of the story is a little confusing, because it takes place in an AU, the emotional beats hit strong! What I love about the summer festival arc is that it feels like a battle between Sara and Sou over Shin. How much more self-indulgent can you get? Sou wants to steal Shin away, but Sara and her band of friends rescue Shin, leading to a lovely little heart-to-heart between our favorite rivals. It’s a wonderful AU for its promise that the Player Character and Our Antagonist Shin could have gotten along under better circumstances.

Anyway, I pulled up the illustration of the immediate aftermath of “saving Shin from Sou.” We see both Kanna and Sara approaching Shin to make sure he’s okay, and Shin confesses that he feels ill and wants to go home.

In canon, Shin has similar visceral reactions whenever Sou is on his mind. For example, after Shin’s War of Words with Sara in the First Main Game—the point where he “snaps” and commits to his wicked Sou persona—he has a coughing fit.

SOU: *pant*... *pant*... / *cough* *cough* I'm exhausted... I feel kind of sick...

Shin also feels ill after seeing Sou’s photograph on Kai’s laptop, and he promptly excuses himself from the room.

SOU: Oogh...! Pant...!! Pant...!!! / Sorry, I... I gotta use the toilet...

You could argue that Shin is “faking” these moments of illness to garner sympathy, but I don’t think he is. What makes Shin an interesting, sympathetic character is that even in his worst moments, you can tell he’s genuinely hurting deep down. It helps us understand that he acts out of fear, not simply cunning. When Shin commits to hurting Sara, just as Sou hurt him, we see that Shin is hurting himself as well.

Going back to the Summer Festival Arc. This is why that illustration of Sara and Kanna trying to comfort Shin makes me emotional. Kanna is the character in canon who cares the most about Shin’s well-being, and Sara as the Player Character can feel deeply for Shin as well. One detail I love about Sara is that even if you choose “I hate him” when Gin asks you how you feel about Shin, Sara will still follow that up with a hopeful wish to get to know the “real Sou.” To me, that shows a (kind of adorable) bias on Nankidai’s part for his own antagonist character. He wants you to care about Shin, even when you hate him!

CHOICE: I hate him

SARA: ...I hate him. / The lies he tells, and how he uses other people.

GIN: Big sis Sara…

SARA: But wanting us to escape all together… That’s not a lie. / I bet if we can be freed from here, I might get to know the real Sou.

So it makes sense to me to highlight these two girls as the characters most concerned for Shin’s personal happiness. That’s why I’m so fond of his relationships with them.

It’s nice to imagine, in an ideal world, that Shin’s friendships with these girls (and possibly other folks too!) would have helped him process his trauma. Over time, he may be able to open up more and trust in other people again. In canon, Sara and Kanna can help him reconcile with his true vulnerable self and cast away Sou’s scarf, but at the high cost of him choosing to sacrifice himself.

However, even in such an ideal world, “helping Shin” would still not be easy. At the end of the day, the only person who can “save Shin” is Shin himself. We can reach out for him, but he needs to accept that help.

tenko chabashira? also idk if you’ve played yttd but if u have then reko yabusame too DJJDDHKSJF i’d love to hear ur opinions about em <33

I haven’t played yttd yet- I want to soon though. I looked them up and their design looks really cool, though!

As for Tenko:

I love her and I honestly think she’s adorable

I like that she’s intense but still comes across as really innocent- to me, at least idk about others-

I really don’t like the way her character was handled- it seemed like they were trying to make her come across as annoying and I just- I dunno, I don’t like that it doesn’t sit right with me

I have mixed feelings about her design; she’s really cute, but her outfit is,,,,, ehhhhh. Like, there are elements I like in it, but it didn’t really stick the landing for me. Tbh I think pants would have suited her a lot better

I think part of the problem is actually the color palette; the muted blue is already kinda gross looking to me but mixed with that light, slightly yellow-ish green is just- ick. I think either color could have worked if it had been paired with... not the one they went with

Don Quixote au ft Himiko as Al Donza. I think that would be so adorable, but that might also just be due to the fact that I absolutely adore that story (funnily enough, I don’t think Tenko would like it very much)

Hmm... this one’s a bit of a toughie, but maybe she’d get along with Sonomi Daidouji from Cardcaptor Sakura?

I hc that she very much loves and supports trans women, and just trans people in general but mostly trans women because pretty

A song that gives me very strong Tenko vibes is “Papi Hears the Ocean” from The Band’s Visit

This was really fun, tysm for the ask hdiehxjosjxow

YTTD Theme Park AU

so i’ve been working on this for awhile and.. 👉👈😳 enjoy!! i’ll also be uploading a keiji fic tomorrow but my askbox is open!

🎪Sara:

✷Sara would be acting as the leader of the group at first, even though she’s not one of the chaperones.

✷She’d probably be stressed over losing Gin or Kanna somehow, but they would reassure her that they would be fine. To emphasize the point, they would promise to stay with one of the chaperones/adults at all times. 

✷Joe would calm her down eventually and take her around the park to try and do every ride, attraction, game, etc with her while the rest of the group splits up for a couple hours. The pair would want to do everything, but probably wouldn’t have enough time to do so.

✷Sara would genuinely enjoy herself after an hour or so at the theme park, and want to buy all the merchandise she could. She would also want to take some souvenirs home for her parents.

✷Before the trip ended, Sara would insist on one big group photo; she would also take hundreds of photos the entire trip in between rides with Joe and anybody else that tagged along.

🎯Joe:

✷Joe would be the life of the party, always insisting on trying every ride and every restaurant/cafe at the theme park. 

✷Even though he wants to get to know everyone, he would stick with Sara the whole time and only tag along with others if Sara was there with them. He’s a bit sad that Ryoko couldn’t come, but tries to have the best time he can even without her. 

✷His favorite ride would be the go-karts, especially since that ride would have the least amount of people in line. He would force Sara into riding the go-karts at least 7 times, just because the line was short (he’s very impatient lmao).

✷Joe would try and get brave halfway through the trip and go on the fastest/highest roller coaster at the park. Despite the lines, he’s genuinely excited until the ride starts and he ends up screaming the entire time. Possibly barfs afterwards from all the junk food he insisted on eating with Sara as well. 

✷He’s a bit disappointed when the trip is over and the group has to leave, especially since he didn’t get to try everything at the park (partly due to wasting so much time at the go-karts but he refuses to believe that).

🎪Keiji:

✷Keiji is one of the chaperones for the trip; he was reluctant to go at first but figured it would be a good time to relax and get a break from work. 

✷He would probably flock from group to group, but nobody really minds as he’s rather enjoyable and brightens the mood. However, for the first half of the trip he watches Gin and lets him stay with him before swapping places with Q-Taro.

✷He enjoys all of the rides, but his favorite would probably be the bumper cars along with Nao and Reko. He drives like an old man, and doesn’t seem to realize at first that the point of ‘bumper cars’ is to ram into other people (but when he does, it’s best to get out of his way). 

✷While Keiji isn’t much of a drinker, he definitely stops at a few restaurants that serve alcohol for a quick drink once he switches with Q-Taro. Mishima would find him at one eventually, and they would probably have a talk for a long time about just life in general. However, one night he drinks too much and probably crashes immediately at the hotel they’re staying at. 

✷He’s not too sad when the trip is over, and would rather reminisce in the memories than waste time being upset over it. He’s grateful for the weekend off, but is definitely ready to go back and continue working.

 🎯Kanna: 

✷Kanna would be rather nervous about the whole trip at first. She doesn’t really go to theme parks that often due to having motion sickness, but her sister wanted her to go and enjoy herself.

✷Being a minor, she has to stay with a chaperone at all times (mostly due to her promise that she made with Sara). She stays with Sou for the majority of the trip, but sticks around with Reko and Sara as well. Her sister chose not to tag along, as she felt that Kanna needed to open up to other people rather than only her family.

✷Due to a fear of heights + her motion sickness, Kanna doesn’t ride any of the roller coasters/fast moving attractions. Her favorite ride is the carousel, and bugs Sou to go ride it again when they’re not doing anything else. Otherwise, she loves the minigames that are scattered around the park.

✷Much like Sara, Kanna would buy a bunch of merchandise for her older sister (including something pride-related iykyk) along with a bunch of sweets for the ride home. 

✷She’s more excited to show her sister everything and talk about all of the memories she made, and isn’t too upset when it’s time to leave the park.

🎪Q-Taro:

✷Q-Taro is also one of the chaperones for the trip; he’s also probably the one who’s most hyped about the trip. With his baseball team having a free weekend, he’s been waiting for a break ever since the season started.

✷Because he’s a chaperone, he has to spend half the trip with Gin. Although he won’t admit it, he enjoys his trip more once he swaps with Keiji; being the loner he is, he doesn’t really hang out with anyone else besides Kai and Gin.

✷At first, he’s a major thrill seeker and adrenaline junky. He goes on every rollercoaster and attraction he can, ignoring the calmer rides such as the go-karts and bumper cars. Even though he has to wait in line for almost the entire first day, he doesn’t really care (that is, until his phone dies). 

✷Q-Taro is constantly drinking beer, yet somehow never appears drunk. But, as soon as he switches with Keiji to watch Gin he stops when he notices how uncomfortable he seems. To make up for it, he blows almost all of his money on games so Gin can win as many stuffed animals as he wants. At the (rigged) baseball throw game, he notices Gin struggling and ends up not only teaching him how to pitch a baseball but also winning the game for him. They end up clearing out the entire stand, but the pair start giving out free plushies to the other little kids at the park (it makes Q-Taro especially happy to see the looks on their faces when he gives one away). 

✷At the end of the trip, he’s rather proud of himself for how he spent his last day at the park. He ended up taking lots of pictures with Gin and Kai, and while he’s ready to get back to work, he wouldn’t mind going again once baseball season was over. 

🎯Sou:

✷Sou is another one of the chaperones for the trip; he was a bit opposed to the trip at first, and debated over not going, but he was eventually convinced by the rest of the group to go. It took some time, but he finally managed to fit the trip into his schedule in between all of his part-time jobs.

✷Being the odd one out, he was planning on spending the trip mostly by himself and doing whatever he wanted to do. But, when he found out he had to chaperone Kanna, he became focused on making sure she had the best experience she could at the park (basically like a big brother figure to her now). 

✷Despite wanting to ride some fast-paced attractions, he does some of the slower ones so Kanna doesn’t have to deal with her motion sickness. Even though he eventually gets annoyed with Kanna always asking to ride the carousel, he figures out that he can sit out on the ride and still watch her (without Sara getting mad at him, at least). 

✷While Kanna goes to spend some time with Reko and Nao, Sou finally gets the chance to ride some of the faster attractions. At some point, he actually ends up sitting next to Alice on one of the rollercoasters and learns that he’s the brother of Reko (they can honestly relate about being ditched by the ladies at this point). When leaving the attraction, Sou probably makes fun of how ‘girly’ Alice’s screams sound like. 

✷He’s a bit exhausted once the trip is over, but is glad that he managed to socialize more and get to know the others better. He was a bit hesitant to take photos at first, but eventually gives in and even takes some home with him. 

🎪Reko:

✷Reko is the only female chaperone for the trip. She was just about to go on tour with her band when the group proposed the idea to go to the theme park, so she managed to push the dates back just a little bit after a LOT of negotiation.

✷Even though she’s a chaperone, she chose to stick with Nao for the majority of the trip instead of with one of the kids. However, she was still happy when Kanna came over to spend some time with her own group. She ends up winning a lot of the minigames for Kanna, and offers her money to buy her sister a present at the gift shop.

✷Her favorite ride would be either the bumper cars or one of the rollercoasters. At first, her and Nao would bully Keiji and continuously bump into him whenever they could until he finally learned the point of the ride. While Nao would give up, she would have a mini war with Keiji and get a few good hits on him until Nao eventually drags her away (she knew that the two would spend the entire day fighting at the bumper cars if they could). 

✷Still a bit upset over Alice, Reko would try and ignore him for half of the trip. She makes him sit in separate areas than her, across the table from her at lunch, even in separate rooms at the hotel (since they’re siblings, they used to share rooms whenever they traveled together until the incident). However, she finally gives up when Nao convinces her to give him a second chance. She won’t admit it, but she actually enjoys his company for a change. 

✷At the end of the trip, she’s definitely ready to get back to her band. She’s hyped for her tour, but she’s glad that she was able to spend some more time with Nao (lesbins) and even her brother. 

🎯Nao:

✷Besides Q-Taro, Nao is the second most hyped for the trip. She loves theme parks in general, and has been waiting for a break from art college for a long time. 

✷Being the social butterfly she is, Nao mostly stays with Reko and Professor Mishima but she isn’t afraid to go join another group for a ride or two. Although, she won’t stray far from Reko or Professor Mishima for long; she’s secretly afraid that she’ll get lost herself, which is why she sticks to someone at all times.

✷As a theme park ‘enthusiast’, she doesn’t exactly have a favorite ride- all of the rides at the park are her favorites. Most of the time, she’ll be dragging Reko and Professor Mishima through the park with them having absolutely no clue where they’re going next. She’s almost like Joe; she wants to make sure she gets the chance to try all the food and attractions at the park before they have to leave. 

✷Once she’s done almost all of the rides, Nao ends up volunteering on the last day for face-painting. She loves seeing the looks on the little kids’ faces when she’s done, and figures that it would be a way to practice art even while she’s on break. Several parents insist on paying her, but she ends up refusing (even though Reko and Professor Mishima beg her to charge as they don’t want to see her not get appreciated for her work).

✷She’s very satisfied at the end of the trip, and brings back a bunch of photos and souvenirs for her dorm. Then again, she’s already planning out the next big trip for the group in her head.

🎪Kai:

✷Kai is considered as one of the chaperones for the trip. Although he was very hesitant to go, considering he’s a workaholic, he’s eventually persuaded by Q-Taro and the others. 

✷Even though he’s a chaperone, none of the little kids are close to him and choose not to go with him. Sadly, being the loner he is, he doesn’t have anybody to really go on the rides with. He tries to socialize with Sara, but she’s too distracted by Joe and Q-Taro is too busy trying to ride all of the roller coasters.

✷After trying to enjoy himself for a couple hours, he eventually sits down on a bench by himself and reflects on the park. Q-Taro eventually notices him on his way to another rollercoaster; he ends up sitting on the bench with him and cheers him up, soon buying him some cotton candy. Q-Taro even introduces Gin to him once he switches with Keiji. 

✷At the hotel, Kai is a HUGE germaphobe. On the first night, he ends up leaving the park early and is the first one to the hotel. Even though it seems spotless to the human eye, he’s disgusted by everything and ends up cleaning everybody’s room before the rest of the group gets back. While some don’t see a difference, Kai definitely gets a few souvenirs bought for him by the end of the trip.

✷He’s not too disappointed when the trip ends, and he’s honestly more excited to get back to work than anything else. However, even if he won’t directly admit it, he did have a pretty good trip.

🎯Gin:

✷Gin is beyond excited for the trip. He was counting down the days until the group would go to the theme park, and was genuinely excited to start off his summer break with it.

✷Since he has to stay with a chaperone, he ends up staying with Keiji and Q-Taro. While he tries running away from them a couple times just to annoy them, he stays at their sides 24/7 just to please Sara so she doesn’t get worried about him.

✷While he isn’t too big on rollercoasters, he’ll still ride a couple of the faster attractions. He’ll often beg whoever he’s with to sneak him through the restricted rides because he isn’t tall enough, but they always refuse, knowing he could get hurt. 

✷When Q-Taro drank beer after beer in front of Gin, he immediately got uneasy due to being reminded of his alcoholic father. He tries to distance himself from Q-Taro at first, and even attempts one of his run away tactics because he’s afraid Q-Taro could change any second. But, once he gives up on the beer Gin is instantly back with him and mischievously pressures him into playing the games around the park to ‘make up for it’. 

✷Even though he’s a bit upset that the trip ended so early (it really didn’t), he’s still cheerful that he learned how to throw a baseball. 

🎪Alice:

✷Even though Alice is an adult, he chose not to be a chaperone (something about him seeing himself as ‘untrustworthy’); he was also definitely unsure whether he would tag along on the trip or not. While he wasn’t exactly a wanted criminal, he knew that he would receive some uneasy glances. But, he was finally convinced by the idea of getting to spend some more time with Reko at the park. 

✷However, he didn’t exactly get to spend a lot of time with her. He more or less third-wheeled Reko and Nao the entire time, and the only one that really talked to him was Professor Mishima when the other two were busy. Despite this, he continued to follow Reko’s group around the park the entire trip. 

✷At one point, he actually got lost and couldn’t find Reko or anyone else for a while. He eventually gave up searching and decided to go on a rollercoaster, which is where he accidentally ended up sitting next to Sou. While leaving the attraction with him, the pair accidentally ran into Reko, Nao, Mishima, and�� Kanna who wanted to go on the same rollercoaster. Despite having almost peed his pants on the ride, he tries to act ‘manly’ around Reko and goes on the rollercoaster again with them while Sou and Kanna left them to go ride the carousel for the 4th time that day. 

✷After Nao convinced Reko to give Alice a second chance, he felt like the luckiest man in the world once he started receiving a little attention from his sister. Wanting to impress her more, he bought whatever souvenir or gift that the mini-group wanted and even paid for lunch on the second day. 

✷At the end of the trip, he’s rather pleased with himself and is actually surprised that he enjoyed the theme park. He would never admit it out loud but his favorite part of the trip was when he finally got to sit next to Reko on one of the attractions (he knows his relationship with her is finally on its way to mending, and he’s very happy about that). 

🎯Professor Mishima:

✷Professor Mishima is another one of the chaperones for the trip. While he was rather surprised at the proposal, he graciously accepted the invite in the end once he found out he had an opening in his schedule. 

✷Since Gin already had two chaperones, he decided to tag along with Reko and Nao. Even though he didn’t know Reko too well, he got to talk to her a little bit along with her brother, Alice. 

✷Even though he doesn’t exactly have a favorite ride, he definitely liked the theme park’s junk food for some reason. He would try everything, and even shared with Nao when they didn’t want to buy two separate portions.

✷At several points in the trip, Mishima wanted to smoke and take a break from all of the walking they did. He eventually made an excuse to take a smoke break one day, but Alice ended up catching him while Nao and Reko went to go ride the bumper cars again. He didn’t really mind Mishima smoking, and the two ended up talking about the others for a while until they were done with the bumper cars (Alice never snitched to Nao, knowing that she would probably scold Mishima). 

✷He was rather content at the end of the trip, although he is ready to go back to work at the art college. He definitely took home a bunch of photos rather than any souvenirs, although Nao probably insistently bought him one or two at the very least.
