Auspicious bustle of the first sunrise - 2-2N

[Gin's room]

Sum: Shizuku-san, how about this? I tried picking something in a cute colour.

Shi: ...Pink isn't bad.

Gin: Isn't this better? It's got cool patterns and stuff. What do you think, Shizuku-san?

Shi: A dragon embroidery... That's cool.

Son: Hm... I want something more unusual.

Sum: Ah, how about this one with the whirlpool patterns? Since you're from Tokushima, Shizuku-san.

Shi: Like the whirlpools of Naruto... I'll go with all three of these.

Gin: Uh, shouldn't you narrow it down to just one...

Son: Mino-san, there's even a word for a twelve-layered kimono - juunihitoe, so it's probably fine to go until you hit twelve layers. [1]

Sum: Sonocchi, the juunihitoe includes other robes like the itsutsuginu and the karaginu too, so it's not quite "twelve layers of kimono".

Son: Ooh, that's our Wasshi, always so knowledgeable... If it's not twelve layers, then how many layers is it okay to go up to?

Sum: Let's see... The itsutsuginu is five layers and goes underneath, the karaginu is one layer you wear on top, the mo you wrap around your waist...

Son: So five plus one makes six. Up to six layers is fine.

Sum: Technically all of those kimono are different from what we have here... Anyway, let's just put on as many as we can.

Son: Let's start with this one. Here we go.

Sum: Shizuku-san, pass your arm through here please.

Shi: ...Got it.

Gin: I'll help too!

Sum: Forestization warning!?

Gin: Eeeh!? There were so many on New Year's Eve I thought there wouldn't be any today!

Son: Can you call this a tradition too?

Sum: I would've been fine if this didn't become a tradition... But there's little point in complaining.

Gin: Yeah, let's take care of them already! Sumi, Sonoko, let's go!

Shi: I'm coming too... Ah.

Shi: Ah... The juice spilled on the kimono...

Shi: What do I do...
