Welcome to the Abode of the Genius! (Part 1)
Towa
All right! I made it! Feels good! Phew!
Towa
Hmm, I've been doing really well since I started using the game pad. Aren't I the best? Winning every match!
Towa
Hmm?
Towa
A message from Hikari...? 'I got tickets to the zoo, so let’s go to Ueno together’?
Towa
Ah, the third place prize for the Ongeki Championship. It's too much trouble, so I'll pass...
Towa
...
Towa
...
Towa
...Aaah~!
Towa
Hello?
Hikari
Ah, Towa-chan? You finally picked up the phone! Did you see the message?
Towa
I saw it! I replied, right? Elementary school students get in for free anyway, and I'm not going.
Hikari
It's free? But I want to treat you!
Hikari
Lilja-san and Ramo-san are here too. They want to thank you, Towa-chan. They really want you to come.
Towa
Thank you...? The last time I went with Lilja, she made me try a hair dryer in Sirius hot spring, you know?
Hikari
That's a different matter! She wants to buy you something you like. It depends on the budget, but she said she'd buy you something. It's your chance!
Towa
Eh~? I've already got the game pad...
Towa
(Wait a minute...speaking of food, there should be a wrestling collaboration cafe going on in Ueno right now.)
Towa
(If we go as a group, maybe one of us will win the 'El Dragon Mask' card that's being given away as a food perk...?)
Towa
I guess it can’t be helped~. I'll go to the zoo. But after that, can you come with me to help with something?
Hikari
Sure! I'm looking forward to it!
Towa
...Well, let's continue.
Towa
So, we’re all together again.
Lilja
Towa, it's been a while.
Ramona
We just got tickets for everyone from Hikari's prize.
Towa
(These two from Gingaza are so tall and mature. If I stand next to them, people will think I’m being accompanied by a guardian...)
Hikari
Let's go right away! I've picked out some recommended animals, so I'll show you around!
Towa
That’s thoughtful. Okay, let's get going.
Ramona
Ooh! It was a good decision to start with the pandas!
Hikari
They’re so cute! I've got to send this photo to Panda-chan!
Lilja
So cute...no, beyond cute, it's cunning. If I eat bamboo, will I get all the attention too?
Towa
I think you’d get attention for a different reason...
Ramona
Oh, it started walking, but then it rolled down the slope!
Lilja
...How cunning.
Towa
You’re burning with competitive spirit, aren’t you?
Ramona
Wow...! There's a baby panda over there! The child of a cute creature...! Cuteness has reached it’s limit!
Ramona
Hey, hey, don't you think so too, Towa!?
Towa
(This person's so high spirited...)
Towa
Yeah, it's cute I guess. That stupid face makes you want to protect it...
Ramona
Oh, now she's started to sleep! She's so free...I could keep watching her forever...
Towa
Ehh, I'm bored so I'm going somewhere else...
Towa
Huh? Hikari isn’t here...?
Lilja
You're right.
Ramona
Oh, there she is! She's over there, in front of the gorilla enclosure.
Hikari
...
Lilja
She looks serious. Like she's asking the gorilla something.
Hikari
Uho? Uho-ho, uho...?
Towa
They're both beating their chests and getting closer? Are they trying to communicate...?
Ramona
Is she trying to learn something? He certainly matches Hikari in terms of dynamism.
Hikari
...!
Hikari
Thank you, master...!
Towa
No, she’s bowing to thank him! They seem to be getting along...!
Lilja
In that case, I'd like to become that crane's apprentice. Her graceful posture will give me some inspiration for how to behave on stage.
Ramona
Oh! I'm also interested in Japanese cranes. I'd love to learn how to behave from her!
Towa
Did you come here for that purpose today...?
Towa
Hey, don't go off on your own!
Towa
Oh, man! Why am I the calmest when I'm the youngest!?
