A star is born? Hero Club's hot springs trip 2-2N

[Hot springs area]

Yum: Everyone! If you are going on a stroll, then allow me, the hot springs PR ambassador...

Tam: Eeh, was that decided already!? Then it's best to stick with Miroku!

Gin: Yeah! I want to know about the hidden gem places and stuff! Miroku-san, please!

Suz: Wait a minute! We're talking about Miroku-san here. I'd listen to the end if I were you.

Meb: Yeah. Miroku-san, could you finish that sentence with the "PR ambassador"?

Yum: I-It is a little awkward when you focus on it like that, but... *cough*

Yum: If you are going on a stroll, then allow me, the hot springs PR ambassador... or the closest person to being one, Miroku Yumiko, to guide you!

Anz: So it wasn't decided yet.

Tak: Look, look, this souvenir store in the guidebook looks interesting, let's go there!

Gin/Tam: We're going!

Yum: P-Please wait a moment! Ladies! Ah... And off they go...

Sek: I'm kind of curious! I'd like to have a local show me around!

Yum: Sekka-san!

Meb: Yeah, I'll come with Miroku-san too.

Suz: Me too, then. Miroku-san's a local here, so she should be more useful than usually.

Yum: Su-zu-me-san! What was that about "more than usually"!?

Yum: Ah! Could they be aiming for a natural shot and secretly photographing our strolling?

Yum: Everyone! Allow Miroku Yumiko, a lady of Kouchi birth, to guide you through this hot springs area!

Suz: Whoa, look at that immediate, unnatural businesslike smile!

Yum: Now, what places would all of you like to see? I shall help you in every way I can.

Sek: Here, here! I have a request, then! I wanna see the local historical places.

Yum: H-Historical, you say?

Suz: Sekka-san, isn't that a bit too hard of a task?

Suz: What Miroku-san knows is probably stuff like where the ultra-cheap supermarkets and bakeries that give away the crusts for free are.

Mir: (Mrgh, Suzume-san is correct. But if I am to be selected as the model, I have to endure...)

Yum: (I do not actually know that much about history, but I would tarnish the family name if I was taken lightly here!)

Yum: Understood. Then at Sekka-san's request, let us be off to the places linked to the history of Kouchi!

Sek: Hurray! Well, if we're talking Kouchi, it's got to be Ryouma before anything else, right!? [1]

Sek: I've always wanted to see that huge statue of Ryouma gazing at the sea with my own eyes!

Yum: A giant Ryouma elephant... T-Then first, let us visit the zoo. [2]

Suz: Eh? Miroku-san, are you for real?

Yum: F-For real, for real, most certainly for real! Sekka-san, is there anything else?

Sek: Let's see. I like Ryouma, but I also love Oryou, his wife.

Sek: So if there any any places related to her, I'd love to go there too.

Yum: O-Oryou-san... I see. Oryou-san... Was there not an old lady with that name in the nearby retirement home?

Meb: Miroku-san, you seem pretty flustered. Are you okay?

Yum: O-Of course I am! Now, Sekka-san, is there anything else you would like?

Sek: Hmm, let's see. What else...

Sek: Miroku-san, it seems like you don't know a thing about Ryouma, but this is pretty fun in its own right. Going with you was the right choice!

Notes:
1 - Sakamoto Ryouma, a Bakumatsu period anti-shogunate activist from Tosa (modern day Kouchi)
2 - Statue and elephant are both pronounced "zou"
