Akamine's thoughts

[Jukai]

Wak: Well then, Akamine Yuuna! I'll be your opponent!

Aka: Ah. My bad, my bad, I forgot to mention the conditions. I'm going to fight either Yuuki Yuuna or Tougou Mimori.

Wak: What? So you're running away from fighting me.

Aka: Less running away, more like... You aren't my goal this time.

Tou: Why does it have to be either me or Yuuna-chan?

Aka: Heroes need unity, of course, but they need individual strength too.

Aka: You need to show your potential. And that's why I'm here.

Tou: Huh? What do you mean? Sonocchi, what do you make of her words?

SON: I think she means she wants to see what either you or Yuuyu are capable of.

Son: Maybe this entire situation was just created as pretext for this duel.

Tou: So she forced the conflict into a stalemate to set up a situation where one of us two has to duel her?

Sek: Are we sure she's not aiming for the Mikos? Trying to get you to duel her and taking you down.

Chi: And Yuuki-san qualifies because if she's defeated, Tougou-san will be become incapable of fighting anyway?

SON: But if you think about what Akamine Yuuyu's been saying until now, that theory seems kind of shaky.

Yuu: Uh... I'm kind of thinking about accepting the challenge.

Yuu: If I fight her, maybe I'll be able to understand what Akamine-chan's thinking.

Tou: But she's good at fighting other people. It's dangerous. I should...

Yuu: Thanks, Tougou-san. But the enemy is a Yuuna. I think it's better if her opponent is a Yuuna too.

Uta: I see. It's a chance to solve the mystery of the Yuunas as well.

Yuu: Yeah! Yuuki Yuuna, heading out!
