Season: Summer

Location: Shopping District

Fuhahahaha! ☆ It really feels nice to have a morning walk!

It’s a shame we stopped hearing the cicadas the moment it got cooler, but summer will come about again! For now, let’s enjoy the coming autumn season!

there are many things we can do in [autumn] — other than it being a word in chiaki’s name1, it is also a season for [art], [sports] and [appetite]…♪

i hope we get to enjoy it with the [kids].

Yeah! We’re all too busy, so our schedules don’t match up very often, but — I’d really like to enjoy the autumn season with the five of us together.

…Oh! Oops, we were about to skip past it. Kanata, it’s over here!

here… ahh, so is [that] what you were looking for?

Yup, this capsule vending machine!

One of my favorite hero series released a capsule toy, but the machine was always sold out whenever I came to get one.

I heard they restock early in the morning, so I came as soon as possible.

Hehe, and right that was. There are so many capsules inside~♪

I prepared a lot of coins for this moment. I should be able to get the hero with this many—☆

I’ll make sure to come out victorious! Time for my first attempt! Oooooh…!!

Five minutes later…

…Guh! I can’t believe I didn’t get a single hero after all those attempts…! Is this the villain’s doing!?

I should’ve brought my wallet… The hero I seek for is still dwelling within the vending machine…!

that’s too bad… and you were even able to [get] all the [villains], too.

Yeah… But I shouldn’t mope over this. This only means it’ll be even more exciting the next time I try.

Also, now that I’ve caught so many monster villains, there should be a higher chance for kids to get the hero.

After all, they can’t use as much money as an adult on these machines. I’m glad I could help them from the shadows…☆

Anyhow, that was my task for today. As promised, I’ll now accompany you however you like!

Location: Beach

It’s a bit warmer here. We should be able to avoid catching a cold with this temperature.

I’ll make a secret base over here. You’re free to puka puka as much as you like~♪

[secret base]? are you going to make a big [sand hill]?

Oh no, it’s going to be for these villain toy figures. I used to make secret bases in the park’s sandbox when I was young.

But back then I’d make them for heroes, not villains. Anyway, it’s alright to play around like a kid every once in a while, don’t you think?

yes. the [kids] are not here so you do not have to act like an adult.

please enjoy yourself freely, however you wish to. i will also stay here, and puka puka.

Alright! Call for me if you ever feel like the waves are about to sweep you away. I’ll come rushing to you immediately!

i’m fine. the [waves] are very calm today.

…oh?

I hear people chattering… Hmm, it seems like some primary school kids are playing hero pretend.

But something seems off…?

(Hm… It sounds like they’re arguing over who’ll have to play as the villain. They’re trying to push the role on the timid-looking boy…)

We can’t let this slide. Let’s go, Kanata!

okay~♪

Time passes…

Fuhaha! I see you’re all full of energy and enjoying yourselves!

…That’s right — I’m Morisawa Chiaki from Ryuseitai, and this here is Shinkai Kanata! I’m so happy to hear you know who we are!

You see, we also love playing hero pretend. Could you let us join you? Oh yes, I don’t mind playing as the villain! ☆

then i will play the [hero].

[dark chiaki]! i’ll defeat you without fail and protect the peace of the city!

take this, [ryuseitai beam]! pew pew pew!

Bwahahaha! You barely even scratched me! What could you ever do on your own!?

why you~, what a tough [villain]. i won’t be able to defeat him by myself. everyone, let’s combine our powers!

ready~, set— pew pew pew pew pew!

GAAAAAAAAAH!? N-No, how could this be—! (collapses)

we did it. we achieved this [result] because we cooperated together, peace~☆

Hehe, it isn’t so bad to play as the villain every once in a while. I’m happy you all enjoyed it!

Now then, it’s quite clear to me that you all love to be heroes. But that doesn’t mean you should force someone else to be the villain, does it?

Could someone who forces others to do what they don’t want to do truly become a hero?

The real evil isn’t playing as the monster villain role — it’s when you hold a selfish, wicked heart.

Listen up, kids! I want all of you to grow and become kind, splendid heroes who save the weak!

Oh? You’d like to try playing as the villain? Why, of course you can! You can be Dark Chiaki No.2! ☆

Mhm, looks like our job here is done. Farewell, everyone! May we meet again!

ufufu. with this, we were able to protect the [peace], right, chiaki?

Yeah! Hero shows always end with a happy ending of everyone smiling! Fuhahaha! ☆
