good afternoon to everyone! ┌(＾＾)┘ i have a few simple question points i'd like to discuss today. this current home base is much more familiar territory to me compared to my previous kidnaping destination, but! I REFUSE TO FALL INTO THE DEPTHS OF COMPLACENCY!

i notice there are quite a few fellow japanese here, some who are much more culturally acquainted to their roots than i. so i'd like to continue my studies and ask about the following:

- japanese vending machines. i've heard the most audacious things can be found within their cheap plexiglass walls! (;;;*_*)

- japanese baths!! i would LOVE to hear more about this. does the communal experience serve the purpose of bonding with one another? would you say that this could be a family activity?

- have you ever been to karaoke? (´• ω •`)ﾉ please tell me about the experience! (is there a karaoke bar here? one should be made if not!)

- the rapid transit system. have you ever used it? how often? how does it truly feel to be cramped in such a confined space?

- how would you describe the taste of taiyaki? the texture? are the ingredients required to make it available here?

any and all information is appreciated. and if it's possible to recreate any of the above here, i'm set on making it a reality!

i was never truly bathed by a nanny, but i know it's common in upper-class circles. i'll revise and say it's common for the common class. i wish it was more prevalent in wealthy families! it seems quite fun!

i'm sorry it wasn't a completely pleasant experience, even though the onsen itself was what it promised to be. what happened that soured everything?

[recommendations]

Oh. Well...

A number of villains attacked us and many of us were injured, and one of my classmates was taken as hostage.

[ So, uh. Yeah. That kind of soured the trip. ]

[vanity]

VILLAINS??? A HOSTAGE??? (⊙_⊙)

ah! was this perhaps one of those tokusatsu stage plays!! you're quite the captivating storyteller!!

[recommendations]

[ this disrespect........ ]

I promise you, everything I told you is the truth, not fiction.

[vanity]

in that case i definitely don't mean to disbelieve you, it's just a lot to accept as truth! it shouldn't come as such a shock after all of these planetary shenanigans, but it's such a diabolical story.

i'm sorry that you were attacked, and for my previous statement. was your classmate freed?

[recommendations]

It's alright. I suppose I should also get used to the fact that not everyone comes from a world where heroes and villains are the norm.

But yes, he was rescued. There were devastating losses in the battle that ensued, but my classmate survived and was returned to us.

[ She would rather downplay her own role in Bakugou's rescue, given that it was fairly illegal for her to do what she and her friends did. ]

He's here now, actually. Several of my classmates are.

[vanity]

it might be my own flaw. i've gone through enough in these multiple worlds, i should be more accustomed to taking things at face value.

i'm glad that your classmate was found safe, but also sorry for the loses you've suffered. and if it means your classmates may not be harmed by these villains, i'm glad they are here, safe. and together!

it's also a testament to your own strength and bravery. that's not a situation most would know how to handle!

[recommendations]

Multiple worlds? Then you have also been to another new world before this one?

I mean, I haven't, but some of my classmates said they have.

I wonder how common something like that is.
