Be in Chaos

Beppu - Blood Pond Hell Stage

Kaede

(Today’s the last day of ambassador work. Sigh… If only Ev3ns could’ve been on that stage…)

Raito

Who would’ve thought that our last day of work would consist of helping another unit with their performance.

Chihiro

They were called “Chiimons” or something. They’re cute and I like mascots and stuff, but we never got to go on stage. What a downer~

Tao

They’re really popular… They don’t start for an hour and people are already showing up…

Chihiro

You don’t know about them, Taotao? They’re these super popular mascot idols. It’s a bummer, but they’re waaaay more famous than we are.

Nayuki

I tried to contact various places, but–as expected–the “prisoner idol” image is just too negative… I’m sorry I wasn’t able to do more, Chief.

Kaede

You did what you could, Nayuki-kun! It’s too bad that they weren’t able to go on stage during this trip, but once we’re back in HAMA we can do our best in getting a performance there!

Nayuki

Well… the bridge and other parts of the song are still a bit of a mess.

Tao

So the only things we ended up doing before heading back were chores and magic tricks…

(I really wanted our unit to properly debut…)

Kaede

Do your best, everyone!

(It’s too bad we didn’t get a chance to perform… but I think I’ll record the Chiimons performance. I think Kiroku-kun would really like that.)

Tao

Just how popular are Chiimons anyways?! I finally managed to get on break…

…! Kinari… Are you on break too?

Kinari

…Kinouchi Tao.

Tao

Um, hey… I wanted to ask. Is your original’s name… written with the kanji for “life”?

(Was that too sudden? I still… want to make sure…)

Kinari

…?! How do you know that…?

Tao

…I mentioned it back when we were on the prison island. Your original and I… were classmates.

Kinari

…? That reasoning is inconsistent. Your age compared to the Original’s is…

Crowd muttering and mumbling.

Tao

…? What’s going on? Sounds like there’s a lot of commotion.

Chiimon Fan A

What the heck do you mean?!

Tourist Association Manager

Sorry for the inconvenience, but Chiimon is currently dealing with one of their heads being stuck in the train door…

Chiimon Fan B

They’re not showing up?! I took a plane to get here!

Chiimon Fan A

No waaaay~!

Tourist Association Manager

S-Sorry for the inconvenience…!

Chiimon Fan C

Unbelievable. After coming all the way here…!

Tao

Kinari, this seems bad. Let’s meet up with everyone.

Kinari

…Understood.

Kaede

The atmosphere is getting pretty tense. It looks like a riot might break out… Beppu’s ratings might go down if that happens…

Raito

Isn’t this when we’re supposed to take charge? Chief, give us a hand.

Kaede

…! Right! Let’s go!

Omotenashi Battle
Chihiro

Everyoooone! Make sure you head home looooving Beppu~♪

Kuguri

You certainly enjoyed every inch of my body… ♪

Chiimon Fan A

Kyaaaah! This Chii is super cute tooooo!

Chiimon Fan B

(Gasp)… Kuguri-san… So godlike…

Chiimon Fan C

(Sigh)… But we did come to see Chiimons, so…

Chiimon Fan D

Let’s just go.

Kaede

Everyone did their best, but there are still a lot of people that are feeling let down…

Raito

“Wait! There’s actually a surprise guest performance happening! Since you’re already here, you should catch it before you leave!”

Kaede

Huh?! Raito-san?!

Nayuki

That idiot! What the hell is he doing?!

Chiimon Fan A

A guest performance…?

Tourist Association Manager

H-Hold on just a second. What are you doing, deciding that on your own?

Raito

Could you trust me and leave this to me? I’ll take full responsibility for what happens, of course.

Tourist Association Manager

Y-You’re really serious about this…? Well, if you insist…

Raito

Ev3ns! This’ll be our first performance!

Kaede

Whaaaat?!
