YuYuYui - Christmas 2021 - 2N

Illuminations of love cultivation - Normal - 7

[Hero Club room]

Aka: Hey, did you hear that? Apparently, Hinata-san came back reformed after her date whatever that means.

Ren: Hmph. What Miroku has heard of is the loss of Yumiko's chastity, or so she said.

Mit: You shouldn't use "hmph", to talk about things like this...

Uta: I've heard Karin-san hit incredible home runs after eating dried sardines.

Yos: I was made aware of Aki-senpai and Akihara-sama riding the Ferris wheel and indulging in a lo-... Mmh. Pardon my rudeness. Forget I said anything...

Nat: None of these sound like a date... Today is Tougou's date. I wonder if they're going to be okay...

[Ines]

SON: Of course we'd go on a date to Ines~. That's expected from Mino-san.

Tou: For sure. But coming to this place...

SON: Wasshi, we didn't come here either to look back on or to overwrite the past, right?

Tou: I'm aware. I plan to enjoy it to the fullest. That's the reason we're here...

SON: Let's start with the gelato store as per Mino-san's instructions~♪

Tou: The taste of soybeans gelato hasn't changed one bit since then.

SON: Ooh. Mino-san's suggestion, the new sausage tofu skin gelato has a novel taste~.

Tou: I'm curious about who could have come up with this combination... But it's clever for a gelato you eat during the winter.

SON: He~y? We've got an order from Mino-san to feed each other, but...

Tou: Fufu, how naive, Gin. I'm no little girl who would be flustered over this much. I'm ready, Sonocchi!

SON: You've changed... Wasshi. Open wide, a~ah♪

Gin: Whaaaat!? Tougou-san didn't hesitate for a secoooooond!? Not that I'm surprised.

Gin: For them, it's been years since the first time we came here together...

Tou: Have you noticed? Gin is behind this pillar.

SON: Yes, yes. She's making all kinds of faces while looking at us.

Tou: We wouldn't mind her joining us...

SON: Mino-san is diligent. She's enduring it for the sake of her role as the planner.

Tou: She doesn't need to worry about it...

SON: That's how Mino-san is, working her hardest for her responsibilities. We don't have the right to say that~.

Tou: You're right. We're on Gin's ideal date. We have to show her we're enjoying it.

Tou: Ooh, Sonocchi~! You have bits of sausage around your mouth. Munch♪

SON: Wasshi. You... haven't changed at all. Hehe... You're still a bit off.

Gin: Nwoooooh!? Tougou-san took the sausage bits from around Sonoko-san's mouth and ate theeeem!?

Gin: What's really surprising is that Sonoko-san had some sausage left on her face!

High school girl: Excuse me! Are you Mino Wagin-san, the eating contest's host!? Please give me your autograph!

Gin: Eh! Y-Yes. You're fine with me...? I feel sorry...

SON: What's next again~?

Tou: "Walk around the food section hand in hand.".

SON: It's not stated, but let's surprise Mino-san with the lover handholding~♪

[Ines - Food section]

Tou: During this time, even the food section is decked out in glittering decorations.

SON: Don't forget it's Christmas.

Tou: Why can't they put that much effort into celebrating Buddha's birthday on the 8th of April...

SON: Even during the Christian era, Buddha's birthday wasn't that well known, Wasshi.

Clerk: On sale today, roast beef for Christmas! Turkey and chicken are also available at a low price!

SON: Wah~, all of them look delicious~♪

Tou: Seeing them in reality, I'm in the mood to relax at home with some honetsukidori.

SON: I was thinking the same~. A Japanese-style Christmas, well enjoyed under a kotatsu~.

Clerk: Ah, young ladies, would you be interested in fried chicken for a party between friends?

Tou: Friends? You're mistaken. Today we are...

SON/Tou: Lovers!

Clerk: P-Pardon me! I will give you a discount as an apology!

SON: Mfuu. As long as you understand.

Tou: We'd like to purchase honetsukidori.

SON: With that, roast beef, roast pork... I know. Excuse me~, I have a question~.

Clerk: Of course, what is it?

SON: There's no shortage of roasted food on Christmas, I was wondering why~.

Clerk: ...Ha?

SON: Grilled, sautéed, or poêlé would be good too. Is there a reason for this~?

Clerk: I'll go ask the manager!

Tou: Sonocchi! Don't ask people about whatever passing thought comes to mind!

SON: Eh~. But shouldn't you ask the butcher about meat~?

Gin: She's right... It's obvious to ask the butcher about meat. Sonoko-san got a valid point!

Gin: No, wait... If the question is about Christmas, then it's also out of the butcher's field. Then...

SON: Ah, a text from Mino-san. "Ask Santa"???

Tou: Gin... She still believes in Santa, does she? How innocent.

SON: On that topic, how long did you believe~?

Tou: I never believed in it to begin with.

SON: Wah~... So mature~.

Tou: Ah, but I've started to believe lately. On the night of the 24th, a Yuuna-chan dressed in red would come♪

SON: I imagined you waking up on the 25th and discovering a Yuuyu in your sock by your pillow.

Tou: Eeh!? What are you saying, Sonocchi? Yuuna-chan breathing slowly while sleeping on my bed, jeez~♪

Gin: She didn't! She didn't say that, Tougou-san! Sonoko-san didn't go that far!

Gin: Aaaah, now Tougou-san is nosebleeding! The people around started noticing it!

SON: Ah, another text. "Nosebleed"...??? Aah, Wasshi, your nose~.

Tou: Ah, you're right. I'll go buy some cotton at the drugstore.

[Ines - Toys section]

SON: Next on the schedule is the toys section~♪

Tou: It is childish for a date, but we can't go against Gin's will.

SON: Maybe they also have a toy Mino-san would like~.

Tou: In this case, should we buy it?

SON: Good idea~. But do you know what she wants, Wasshi~?

Tou: I don't. I'm not even aware of which toys are popular...

SON: Hm~m, that makes the task difficult~. Ah, then what about buying everything?

Tou: S-Surely not... Gin would be sad to take away the other kids' toys...

SON: Ah~, I didn't think of that~. As expected of Wasshi. So feminine~.

Tou: I highly doubt it's related to femininity.

Boy: Mama! Buy the Damen rider belt!

Mother: If you're a good boy, I'm sure Santa will get it for you, so be patient for now.

Tou: Damen rider...?

SON: Oooh! Looks like they have generations of belts from the Damen rider series lined up over there~♪.

SON: Gomen(sorry) rider. Momen(cotton) rider. Himen(dismiss) rider. Even chimen(ground) rider and chomen(bleep) rider~♪

Tou: S-Sure is a lot of them...

Gin: You got the last one wroooong! You're chomen rider, Sonoko-san!

Tou: First of all, let's take a look to pick which one to buy.

SON: Ooooh!? The belt lights up!

Belt: The noodles, the ingredients, and the dashi all call. For me to skim the broth! I am omen(noodles) rider, slurpinger!

SON: Waah♪ This is the wandering, gluttonous rider's belt. He walks and eats udon at the same time~!

Tou: His true identity wouldn't happen to be Fuu-senpai...?

SON: I think Mino-san will like this one! Wasshi, take this weapon♪

Tou: Eh, ah. This is a finely crafted saber for a toy.

SON: Prepare yourself, kokubo kamen. The slurpinger is gonna suck you up!

Tou: Say what!? Justice standing in the way of the protection of our country is flawed! Feel my unshakable love for our country!

SON/Tou: Tooh! Deryah! Uryah! Soryah! / Heya! Taa! Too! Haa!

Gin: Aaaah, what are they doing!? Why are two allies of justice fighting!?

Gin: They don't understand it at all! I can't just stand by and watch quietly!

Gin: Stop, stooooop! That's totally wrong, you two!

SON/Tou: Mino-san? / Gin...?

Gin: Are you listening? Kokubo kamen and rider are both on the side of justice. If the two of them fought!

Gin: You need the proper context, like one of them being fake, or it's part of the villain's scheme!

Gin: First of all, the slurpinger is the one with the most love for udon in the whole series...

Tou: She finally decided to come with us, Gin...

SON: We were waiting... Mino-san.

Gin: On the other hand, Kokubo kamen is to my knowledge... H-Huh?

Tou: Keep going... Gin.

SON: Let's try all the toys... together.

Gin: .........Okay. Ehehe♪

[Ines - Arcade]

Gin: Man~, it's so lame. I ended up coming out after staying hidden this whole time~.

Tou: Ufufu, that's not true.

SON: Are you sure you didn't want to buy the belt~?

Gin: Y-Yes. We're on Hero Club duty today. It would be weird for the planner to get a present, no?

Tou: While this may be true...

SON: Christmas is still a few days away. For now, we'll go on Mino-san's date as planned. Watch from the side, okay~?

Gin: Got it! Next, please get fired up and play games at the arcade!

Tou: Mm~h. I don't see the game I'm good at. The one where you shoot corpses with a shotgun on top of a motorcycle.

Gin: Hyeh!? Even if you're good at it, something gory like that isn't suited for dates!

SON: What do you recommend then~?

Gin: Well, maybe crane games, catching something the girlfriend wants~.

Tou: Aah, Koori-san and Takashima-san often play it. You must catch gifts using a sort of...

SON: Tougou-ku~n. I want this plushie~. Get it for me, please, please, pleaaaase~~!

Tou: Of course, I'll do my best for you. Which one is it? A ichimatsu doll? Or a gosho doll?

SON: Not the ones that look like they wander in your room at night~. I want Amore from the Sancho series~!

Tou: I refuse, Sonoko. Since you're my girlfriend, I need to train your patriotic heart, and make you understand the charm of Japanese dolls.

Gin: Don't drag your girlfriend into your patriotic ideology. And Sonoko, your character sounds too young!

SON/Tou: Eh~?

Gin: Don't eh me! You're both older than me. How do you not understand romance!?

SON: ............We're... not older.

Gin: Eh.

SON: You and we are... the same age.

Gin: U-Uuuh...?

Tou: T-That's true! You seem mature, and you have a better sense of responsibility because of your brother. If anything, you're more mature than us. So...

SON: ...Hm. Yes. That's what I meant! As far as mental age is concerned, I'm 20 years younger than you~♪

Gin: Haaa!? You wouldn't even be born!?

Tou: So please, give us more detailed directions. About your idea of a date.

Gin: Mm~h. Since Christmas is a special day, I want you to take a commemorative photo at a booth!

SON: Aah, photo booth! I want to do this too! Let's go♪ Okay~?

Gin: Oh, that's the spirit, cute like a true girlfriend!

Tou: You don't leave me much of a choice. If that is what you want, let's take those photos together...

SON/Tou: All three of us!

Gin: Eh!?

Photo booth: Pick your photo mode♪ Get ready. 3, 2, 1...

Gin: Are you sure it's okay to all be here? Today's your date after all...

Tou: The machine is still talking. Please listen.

Photo booth: Sketch time~. Draw or write anything you want on your photo♪

SON: Mino-san! Write something, write something~♪

Gin: Eh, me!? Then let me think... Scribble.

Tou: Ah...

SON: "Best friends forever"...

Gin: Eheheh♪

[Shopping street]

Gin: Look! So many street performers! There's a crowd of spectators too!

SON: Mino-san is having fun~. She's so cheerful.

Tou: But... Even though she wrote "best friends forever" on our photo, she still uses formal speech with us...

SON: Ah, Wasshi. Sorry about earlier... I felt like we were back to our Shinju-kan days...

Tou: That is understandable. When we're together, I sometimes forget I am Tougou now.

Gin: Secret talk, isn't it♪?

SON: Ehehe~, that's right~. Because me and Wasshi are a lovey-dovey couple~.

Tou: Sonocchi! Don't forget who your lover is and use passionate like a proper Japanese!

SON: Pppp-Passionate!? Oh~, Tougou-kun, you cheeky little! We haven't gone that far, have we~?

Gin: Aa~h, I didn't get it, but there's some kind of event over there, let's check it out!

[Event venue]

Young man: Thank you for going out with meeeeeee! I love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!

Middle aged woman: Deaaar! Thank you for working so haaaard! I'm waiting for your winter bonuuuuuuuus!!

Host: Alright! On this "December love yell tournament", from gratitude to confession, come yell anything you want into the mic!

Tou: Eeh... What is this?

Gin: You scream your love for someone, and the one who's the loudest wins♪

SON: Ah, you're right. There's a digital scoreboard on stage with how many decibels they did~.

Gin: If your lover won this, you wouldn't think that's so awesome♪?

Tou: Leave it to me. I will make my passion as a member of this country known to the entire audience!

Gin: Awawawa, spare us the patriotic speech at least on Christmas!

SON: In this case, I'll do it~♪

Gin: You won't talk about bleep, right!?

SON: ......I don't like your sharp intuition.

Gin: Jeez! Don't you have anything!? Like pure honest words directed towards someone you love!

SON/Tou: ......You do it then♪

Gin: Eeeeeh!? T-That won't... Ah, look! Food stalls, let's get something to eat!

SON/Tou: Eh~~?

SON: I wanted to hear your confession~. Munch... Ah, this crepe is delicious~♪

Gin: Haha... It's not like I have anything I would like to confess or say out loud.

Tou: Is that so? I want to hear it. Whatever you say, I want to hear...

Gin: Aah... Well, before... I would have had something, but not anymore.

Tou: Before, meaning?

Gin: You two are Sumi and Sonoko after living 2 years I missed in the real world, right?

Gin: In the beginning, I felt... something like... a thin wall...

SON/Tou: ............

Gin: But now's different. Because you're no longer hiding things from me!

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/yuyuyu/images/1/18/Card_image_206840.png

SON: Yes... We knocked the wall between us right down~!

Tou: That we did. Breaking walls is my specialty. Ah... But in a good way.

Gin: Thank you. Because of it, from the bottom of my heart...

Gin: I'm able to think of you as my best friends forever, Sumi and Sonoko♪

SON/Tou: .........

Gin: Eheh.. A-A~ah, my throat is dry~! Gonna buy myself a drink!

SON/Tou: Uuh... uh... uh...

[Shopping street]

Tou: Gin... It's been a while and she still hasn't returned. How far could she have gone...?

SON: Let's look for her... I absolutely refuse to leave Mino-san alone...

[In front of the tree]

Gin: Huuh~??? That's strange... I thought they were over here...

Woman: Aah, sorry!

Gin: It's nothing, don't worry. I'm sorry.

Boy: Today! At nursery school! I wrote a letter for Santa!

Girl: Onee-chan wrote one too! I can't wait for Christmas~♪

Gin: Haha... Seems like a fool's errand to find them in this crowd...

Gin: Well, I'll text them to meet somewhere. It would've still been a good day if we called it a night now...

Gin: But it's somewhat...... lonely.

Gin: .........

Host: Young lady over there! Why not scream out your love?

Gin: ...Eh? Me?

Host: That's right, you! It's your last confession of the year. The stage is all yours!

SON/Tou: Haa haa haa...!

Tou: What should we do...? We can't find her.

SON: She's not responding to my calls... It's probably too noisy for her to notice them...

Gin: Big Sumiiii! Big Sonokoooo!

SON/Tou: Eh!?

Gin: Wherever you are! No matter how much you've grown! And whatever happens!

Gin: I! Minowa Gin! Love youuuuuuuuuu!!!!

SON/Tou: ...!! ......... ...!

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/yuyuyu/images/6/67/Card_image_304090.png

SON: Wa~~h, Mino-sa~~n!

Gin: Ah! Youre here, I finally found... Mggh~! Hey, it hurts♪.

Tou: Gin! Sorry we let you get lost!

SON: We won't leave you alone ever again!

Gin: Huh, w-what do you mean!? Weren't you the ones who got lost!?

Tou: It would be weird to use this word when we were together. However you cut it, you were lost.

Gin: But you moved from the spot, so you got lost!

SON: We won't let you leave! We'll follow you everywhere~! Even the bath or toilet!

Gin: Heck no, the joke has gone too far! You'd invade my privacy!

Tou: Privacy doesn't exist between best friends forever! The three of us are one! Right?

SON: I am you and you are me! BFF squad! Best friendgers!

Gin: That's awful! Sonoko~, your naming sense is terrible for an aspiring novel writer~.

SON: Eh~? Rea~lly~?

Gin: Sumi, say something!

Tou: She's right, Sonocchi. We're the country protection squad, volunteer army!

Gin: Waah, you managed to do worse! Jeez~. You two are in need of Gin-sensei's special lesson!

Tou/SON: Gladly♪

Gin: Are you listening~? A Hero of justice is...

Tou/SON: Ufufufufu♪

SON: (Thank you, Mino-san. This was a wonderful date...)

Tou: (I pray for happiness to come visit you during this year's holy night...)
