A Strange, Strange Tale
Koakuma
Gather up! It's kamishibai time! I'm gonna tell you a story using pictures! It's gonna be super duper amazing!
Daiyousei
What kind of story are we gonna see today?
Koakuma
I don't know.
Lily White
Didn't you make it?
Koakuma
Well, the original idea's mine, but...
Koakuma
Um, how do I explain this?
Koakuma
This kamishibai stage automatically creates stories!
Audience
Whoa, that's unbelievable!
Koakuma
I know, right?! I'm excited to see what story it comes up with this time!
Daiyousei
This is incredible! Did Miss Patchouli create it?
Koakuma
No, it wasn't her...
Koakuma
I think I should try making a new kamishibai!
Koakuma
I still can't believe she gave me this new kamishibai stage.
Koakuma
The old one was almost falling apart, so this is great! She even taught me a fun little trick!
Koakuma
Let me give it a try...
Koakuma
(Please create a story with me as the main character!)
Koakuma
Whoa, it's ready already?! I wonder what it came up with...
Koakuma
W-Wow, it actually created a whole story!
Koakuma
...I didn't think I'd look this cool in it!
Koakuma
And what's this...?
Koakuma
Does this thing do more than draw stories automatically?!
Koakuma
...
Koakuma
I gotta test it some more!
Daiyousei
How interesting! So it changes up the story every time, huh?!
Koakuma
And it even gives the story a perfect title!
Cirno
I don't get it, but it sounds cool!
Koakuma
It comes up with all sorts of crazy plotlines and plot twists! It's amazing!
Koakuma
That's why I didn't read the story beforehand. I wanna enjoy it with you guys!
Koakuma
C'mon, get ready to watch!
Koakuma
This is a cute little adventure story called "The Rebellious Mini-Fantasia"!
Koakuma
It's starting!
The Adventure Begins
A not-so-long time ago, PLAYER visited the Inverted Castle.
She was invited by the tiny princess of the castle and the freeloading amanojaku.
Hello, I'm here as promised! Where are you guys?
Hm, maybe they're not ready yet.
She called out to them several times, but no one showed up, so she decided to search the other rooms in the castle.
She looked around, but the tiny princess and the amanojaku were nowhere to be found. Where could they have gone?
PLAYER considered the possibilities. Maybe they were out shopping, or maybe something urgent had come up.
That's when she noticed the chocolates on the table. Surely the princess had put these here for her, she thought.
They look yummy! I'm hungry... Maybe I'll have one.
Huh, what's this note next to the sweets?
It read "Don't eat." PLAYER was a good kid, so she gave it some thought.
She figured the note was written by the freeloading amanojaku who always says the opposite of what she means.
The note says "Don't eat," which means...
It's OK to eat them, right?
PLAYER took one and ate it.
Her mouth was instantly filled with the sweet taste of chocolate. It was so delicious that it almost felt like a dream.
However─
Wh-What's going on?!
Why is everything around me getting bigger?!
Something very strange was happening. PLAYER was shrinking in size!
She felt a surge of anxiety the moment she realized what had happened.
She was so tiny that she could drown in a puddle of tears. That's also when she noticed something approaching her.
???
Oh, no, PLAYER! Don't tell me you ate one of those chocolates!
???
*sigh* Why would you do that? The princess even wrote a note warning you not to.
Just when PLAYER was feeling lost and all alone, familiar voices snapped her out of her despair.
Her ears recognized the voices, but she couldn't figure out what her eyes were seeing...
She knew the people who stood before her, but she had never seen them looking quite like this before.
Tiny Problems
Shinmyoumaru
I can't believe you've also shrunk in size, PLAYER.
Shinmyoumaru
But I kinda feel closer to you now that you're the same size as me!
Seija
Gosh, we're so "lucky"!
I-I'm so happy to see you guys!
Seija, did you also shrink?!
Seija
Hmph! I look "the same"!
Their height wasn't the only thing that was different. It was their clothes, too!
Seija
HEY!
There was a reason they were dressed like that...
Seija
Stop ignoring me!
Shinmyoumaru
It's OK, Seija. It's not like we're gonna stay this way forever. Besides, you look great in that outfit!
Seija
...?!
So, why did the amanojaku and PLAYER shrink to the same size as the princess?
Let's take a look at how things ended up this way.
Shinmyoumaru
Thanks for shopping with me, PLAYER!
Shinmyoumaru
I asked the owner of Kourindou to make the outfits, but I didn't know what to do about the rest of the stuff.
Shinmyoumaru
You really helped me today with all your great ideas! I also gotta thank you for carrying me around in your pocket!
I had fun shopping with you!
You'll be a good maid! Just like Miss Sakuya!
Shinmyoumaru
I'll try my best!
Shinmyoumaru
But I gotta say, Sakuya is amazing. She can make tea and cook food in no time.
Shinmyoumaru
She's like the perfect maid. The way she serves food, her mannerisms... everything about her is impeccable!
So, where do you plan on working as a maid?
Are you gonna serve Reimu at Hakurei Shrine?
Shinmyoumaru
Hm, I wouldn't mind that, but a shrine doesn't feel like the right place for a maid.
Shinmyoumaru
What about the Shining Needle Castle? It may not be western-style, but it's still a castle!
But there was something PLAYER didn't understand, and so she asked...
"Will you be serving the freeloading amanojaku at the Shining Needle Castle?"
Shinmyoumaru
Huh, why would I do that? I'm gonna serve everyone who visits the castle!
Shinmyoumaru
And Seija's gonna help!
Shinmyoumaru
Hm, but I do want to call someone "milady," like Sakuya does.
(I think I've heard of cafes like that...)
PLAYER seemed concerned, but she went with the princess to Kourindou to collect the outfits.
Rinnosuke
Welcome to Kourindou.
Rinnosuke
Your order is ready. I'll go get it for you.
Shinmyoumaru
You're really fast! I'm excited to see what the outfits look like!
Shinmyoumaru
Wow, these are wonderful! Thanks, Mister Shopkeeper!
Rinnosuke
I'm glad you like them.
A-Are you OK, Mister Rinnosuke?!
Rinnosuke
I'll be fine. I've just spent a lot of time working on detailed outfits. I think I need to give my eyes some rest.
The princess and PLAYER looked worried as the shopkeeper fumbled his way to the back of the store.
But their worry was short-lived. They couldn't control their excitement as they left the store.
Rinnosuke
They could've shown some more concern...
Upside-Down Castle Maids
Seija
And that's how you and PLAYER got these "lovely" outfits, huh?
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah, they're adorable and really comfortable to work in. Admit it, Seija. I know you were also excited to try them on.
Shinmyoumaru
They're proper maid uniforms.
Seija
Grrr! Fine! "I'll happily admit that!"
Seija
These outfits kinda look like something a maid would wear, but the accessories definitely don't!
The amanojaku had a lot of complaints about her clothes. And with good reason.
To know why, we'll need to look at what happened after the princess and PLAYER got back to the castle─
Seija
HUH?! Did you say you want me to be a maid?!
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah, I want us to wear maid outfits and open up a cafe here! It's gonna be fun!
Seija
No way! I'm totally "up for it"!
Seija
Acting like a maid sounds like "so much fun." You can go do it by yourself! See ya!
Shinmyoumaru
Hm, I knew you weren't gonna like the idea, but I'm kinda surprised to see how much you hate it...
Seija
Huh...?!
Yeah, that's too bad...
It's not like we can force her...
Shinmyoumaru
It sucks, but I guess we should give up. Sorry, Seija.
Seija
Ugh...!
Seija
F-Fine! If you want it that bad, I "won't" do it!
Seija
I'm Seija Kijin, and I'm gonna be the best rebellious maid out there! You "can't" count on me for anything!
Shinmyoumaru
Yay! Thanks, Seija!
Shinmyoumaru
These are the outfits and accessories we bought. I think these ones will look good with your outfit...
Seija
I just have to wear all of this, right?!
Shinmyoumaru
W-Wait, Seija!
The amanojaku blindly grabbed her outfit along with the bag full of accessories and went to put them on.
Shinmyoumaru
Oh, well! I'll also go get changed!
Shinmyoumaru
What do you think? Do I look like a proper maid?
Yeah, you look cute!
(She looks like the main character of a fairy tale!)
Shinmyoumaru
Really? Thanks!
Shinmyoumaru
Seija took the whole bag of accessories we bought in the village, so I was worried my outfit would look incomplete.
Seija
I'm done changing!
Shinmyoumaru
Welcome back, Seija─
The two froze looking at the amanojaku in her new outfit. It was as though they'd been hit by the ice fairy's bullets.
Seija
How do I look? I used everything that was in the bag! I look like the most "imperfect" maid, don't I?
They might have agreed with her if they hadn't realized she probably said "imperfect" to mean the opposite.
Shinmyoumaru
You didn't have to put all of them on...
Seija
Wh-What?!
Seija
...
Seija
I-I "love" this look! It's my very own old-school maid look!
The amanojaku was now dressed as the "perfect" maid.
Shinmyoumaru
─OK, now that we're dressed as maids, we gotta get everything else ready.
Seija
So, what exactly do we have to do as maids?
You'll make sweets and serve your guests...
You'll cook food and make tea for your guests.
Shinmyoumaru
All right! Let's prepare some sweets!
Seija
OK, I'm "not going" to help...
Shinmyoumaru
PLAYER, you're our guest, so please come back in a couple of days.
Shinmyoumaru
We'll get everything ready by then!
With that, PLAYER went back to Hakurei Shrine, and the other two started with their maid duties...
The Wrong Tool for the Job
Shinmyoumaru
Let's start making the sweets!
Seija
Oh, you've already got all the ingredients here. What are we making?
Shinmyoumaru
So, when I was at the village, I asked about homemade sweets─
Mike
Hm, I'd say chocolates are the best for this time of year.
Mike
I'll give you a good deal if you buy a whole set!
Seija
So that's why you've got so many chocolate bars. Can't we just serve them as is?
Shinmyoumaru
No way! We're gonna melt them and make our own chocolates!
Shinmyoumaru
You chop up the chocolate bars and I'll melt the butter!
Seeing the princess all excited, Seija began to chop up the chocolate even though she felt like it was too much work.
Seija
...
Seija
...
Seija
...
Seija
Ugh, this is too much work!
Seija
Maybe I can use this to smash them all at once!
Seija found something lying around and used it to smash the chocolates to pieces.
Seija
I'm sure the princess would be "sad" if I get this done quick. I'll finish smashing these chocolate bars too...
Shinmyoumaru
And then Seija shrunk in size when she tasted the chocolates we made.
That explains the warning note!
Didn't the chocolates have any effect on you?
Shinmyoumaru
Nope. I'm still the same size and I feel fine.
Seija
It's been a few days since I shrunk. We haven't had any guests, so I've had "absolutely no" problems...
Seija
But I "did" expect you to shrink, too. Argh, why is this happening...?
Shinmyoumaru
...
The princess and PLAYER looked pointedly at the amanojaku... as though they were answering her question.
Seija
Wh-Why are you looking at me like I'm the "good" guy here?!
Shinmyoumaru
Seija, you used something you shouldn't have to smash the chocolate bars, didn't you?
Seija
I "didn't"! That thing was lying right next to me, so I used it!
The amanojaku pointed to the thing she used to smash the chocolate.
Seija
It's the replica of the Miracle Mallet! It's fake! Everyone knows it doesn't have any magic.
Shinmyoumaru
Hm, it shouldn't, but... maybe it does?
Seija
Huh...?
The amanojaku was in a state of panic, but she refused to explain why.
Shinmyoumaru
Well, we can't force you to tell us if you don't wanna... It's a bit risky, but I think I know what we gotta do─
Thinking she could wish away Seija's wish, the princess decided to use the real Miracle Mallet to fix the problem.
Shinmyoumaru
The mallet is in here... Who's there?!
Seija
Whoa, she's huge! Or maybe we're just tiny.
Chen
Oops, busted.
Chen
I better get outta here!
A cat dressed in white─let's call her the white cat─had broken in, and was seen running away with something.
Seija
Hey, wasn't that the Miracle Mallet in her hand?!
Shinmyoumaru
I can't believe she stole it! Let's go after her, Seija, PLAYER!
Amanojaku & Princess
Wait!
Chen
Eek, they're coming after me!
Chen
But I'm not gonna let them catch me!
Chen
Tch, you're pretty strong for your size! But you can't catch me if I run at full speed!
Chen
See ya!
Seija
Grrrrr! You stupid thieving cat! This isn't over!
The three tiny ones decided to keep chasing after the white cat.
Nothing made sense. Why did they shrink in size? Why did the cat steal the Miracle Mallet?
And what did Seija wish for when she used the mallet to smash the chocolate bars? Keep watching to find out!
Follow the White Cat
Amanojaku & Princess
Stop!
Shinmyoumaru
She ran into that room! Let's get in there before she shuts the door on us!
The three tiny ones chased the white cat into the room.
Seija
Wh-What's this?!
Seija
Where are we? This doesn't look like the Shining Needle Castle!
After their eyes had adjusted to the bright light shining upon them, they found themselves standing in an unknown forest.
Shinmyoumaru
That door isn't supposed to lead to any forest... What's going on here?
Seija
The only thing that hasn't changed is that everything around us is still "tiny," and we're still "big."
Huh? Aren't we tiny?
I'm so confused! Everything's inverted!
Seija
Who cares?!
Seija
Just get used to it!
Shinmyoumaru
Look, the white cat is over there with my mallet!
Seija
She's not getting away this time! Let's get her─
Seija
Whoa?!
Careful, Seija! You're tangled in the grass!
It's not safe to run around when everything is so huge!
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah, even a tiny pebble or a hole in the ground could be dangerous. We gotta proceed with caution.
Seija
Ugh, I've never seen grass so "short"! I can't move! This is so "comfortable"!
Shinmyoumaru
We gotta help Seija before we can move forward...
Navigating through the forest as tiny people was tough. Lovely little flowers felt like towering giant trees.
They lost sight of the white cat, but they decided to keep going further into the forest using the plants around them.
Seija
If we climb up this stump, we'll be able to hop onto that mushroom.
Shinmyoumaru
And if we jump from mushroom to mushroom, we'll get through the forest faster!
Seija
OK, I'll go first!
Shinmyoumaru
Just be careful you don't jump too high!
Seija
I'm going to give this jump all I've got! Here I go!
Seija
Whooooooooooa!
Shinmyoumaru
See, I told you! Mushrooms are really bouncy. You didn't need to jump with so much force.
Shinmyoumaru
Wait, what's that...?!
Rumia
Mmm, I found a yummy-looking one! Tiny, but it will do!
Seija
Are you talking about me?!
Rumia
Of course! I wonder if you taste like sweets.
Rumia
Oh, wow.
Rumia
I found some more!
Shinmyoumaru
Oh, no, how did she see us?!
Shinmyoumaru
PLAYER, go hide under that leaf. I'll rescue Seija and get rid of that youkai!
Seija
Princess...
Shinmyoumaru
Hang in there, Seija! I'm coming to save you!
Rumia
Huh, why does my foot feel prickly?
Rumia
Oh, the other tiny one is on my foot. Maybe I'll eat her first!
Shinmyoumaru
Try me! I'm Shinmyoumaru Sukuna, a proud Descendant of the Inchlings! I'm not going down without a fight!
Shinmyoumaru
I'll do everything in my power to save my friend!
Rumia
Eep, I didn't expect you tiny ones to be so strong!
Rumia
Oof...
Shinmyoumaru
Let's get outta here!
Seija
...
Shinmyoumaru
Is something wrong, Seija? Are you hurt─
Seija
N-No, I'm fine! Let's "stay" here ASAP!
The three somehow succeeded in escaping the gluttonous youkai.
But what lay ahead could only be described as an even bigger adventure...
Flower Field Run
Rumia
Where did they go?
Amanojaku & Princess
...
The three tiny ones had escaped to a field of flowers. The plan was to hide among the flowers if the youkai came looking.
Rumia
Ah!
Amanojaku & Princess
...!
Rumia
I should go back to that mansion I was in earlier! I bet the sweets they were baking are ready by now!
Amanojaku & Princess
...
That was a close call, but they were safe for now. You could almost hear them breathe a sigh of relief.
Seija
I-I thought she spotted us for a second there.
Shinmyoumaru
It all worked out somehow! I'm glad we didn't turn into youkai food!
Seija
I know, right?
Seija
...
Seija
Ummm, princess...
Medicine
Look, the flowers around here are so pretty, Miss Lily!
Amanojaku & Princess
Huh...?
Medicine
OK, I think I've picked enough. We should go now!
Amanojaku & Princess
HUUUUUH?!
They were in trouble again. The flower they were hiding in was picked by a doll with bunny ears.
Shinmyoumaru
Waaaaaaaaaait! You've picked us up, too!
Seija
HEY! Where are you taking us?!
Amanojaku & Princess
...
Yuuka & Medicine
...
Yuuka
...So that's why these three are here.
Medicine
How could I know they were hiding in one of the lily of the valley flowers?!
Thanks for noticing us, Miss Yuuka!
Thanks for bringing us here, Medicine!
Medicine
Y-You're welcome... I guess?
Yuuka
It's good that we didn't plan on eating these flowers, or you'd be food by now...
Shinmyoumaru
S-Stop scaring us!
Seija
Y-Yeah, you aren't scaring me!
Yuuka
Hehe, sorry. We almost never have guests over, so I got a bit carried away.
Shinmyoumaru
Did you just call us guests?
The flower-loving youkai's smile was quite unnerving. It's no wonder they were shaking with fear as they questioned her.
Yuuka
Am I imagining things, or did I just hear someone bad-mouthing me?
Yep, it was your imagination!
Medicine
Anyway, so, the thing is, we have tea parties every day!
Yuuka
You might've come here by accident, but you're still our guests.
Yuuka
And now that you're here, you must participate.
Amanojaku & Princess
...?
Yuuka
OK, so if no one has any objection to that, let's get this lovely tea party started.
And then, the three of them spent the next few hours having a wonderful tea party decorated with flowers.
Tumultuous Tea Party
Yuuka
─So you three got lost while chasing that white cat who stole your Miracle Mallet, huh?
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah... Do you know where we could find that cat?
Yuuka
Hm, I'm not sure, but I think she's probably headed for the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
Huh, why would the white cat... Chen go there?
Yuuka
You'll know once you're there. Am I being too mean by not telling you everything?
Yuuka
Well, I'll tell you this. The mistress of that mansion is evil incarnate. She's a tyrant who rules with an iron fist.
Shinmyoumaru
Really?! She didn't seem that bad last time I met her...
But the forest they had wandered into was a mystery in itself. Anything was possible.
Huh, I don't remember adding this twist... Th-This story is full of surprises!
Shinmyoumaru
Let's just go and see for ourselves! We might get some clues there.
Yuuka
Hehe, good to see you have a plan now.
Yuuka
And I must say, today's tea party was especially delightful, thanks to you three.
Medicine
Hey, stop that, you mini bunny ears! Where are your manners?!
Seija
Eating cookies in this tiny body is "easy," so I'm gonna nibble every cube of sugar here!
Seija
And who are you calling "mini bunny ears"?! Wait till I get back to normal, and then we'll see who's "mini"─
Medicine
Grrrrrrrr!
Medicine
Take this!
Seija
Hey, stop shoving me inside the cake! I'm no candle!
Shinmyoumaru
They seem to be having fun! I should join them! It's a tea party, after all!
Um, sorry about all this chaos, Miss Yuuka!
Yuuka
Don't worry about it. It's good to spice things up sometimes... Just like trying out different flavors of tea.
The three tiny ones were enjoying the tea party.
Shinmyoumaru
Glub blub blub...
Seija
P-Princess?!
Medicine
She's drowning in tea! I'll save her!
Yuuka
By the way, how did the two of them shrink?
Shinmyoumaru
Well, it all started when─
The princess told them everything. That's when the blonde doll asked, "But how come the sweets had no effect on you?"
Shinmyoumaru
That's what I wanna know, too.
Yuuka
I think Seija can answer that for you.
Seija
...!
Yuuka
Let's assume that Shinmyoumaru is right, and maybe that replica of the Miracle Mallet does have some magic.
Yuuka
Then, it's no longer a harmless weapon. It's a fully functional wish-granting tool.
Yuuka
So we need to know what you wished for.
Seija
I-I didn't wish for anything! When I used it to smash the chocolate─
Seija
I'm sure the princess would be "sad" if I get this done quick. I'll finish smashing these chocolate bars too...
Seija
...
Shinmyoumaru
...Seija?
Yuuka
Sorry to interrupt, but it looks like we have some unwanted guests. They were probably attracted to the flowers.
Medicine
Ugh, not those prankster fairies again! They keep showing up at all our tea parties!
Shinmyoumaru
We'll continue this later. Let's get rid of the fairies first. C'mon, Seija!
Seija
O-OK!
Medicine
Phew, peace at last. Now let's get back to the conversation!
Seija
...
Yuuka
Did the fairies get your tongue? If you don't want to talk, there must be a reason.
Seija
N-Not really! This will all be fixed once we get the mallet back anyway, so...!
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah, you're right. You don't need to tell us if you don't wanna.
Shinmyoumaru
You can tell us when you feel like it. All that matters is getting you and PLAYER back to normal!
Seija
Princess...
Yuuka
Hehe, I'm not sure if you're going too easy on her or if you trust her to do the right thing.
Yuuka
Well, either way, it's not my place to say anything further.
Medicine
Yeah, same here!
Medicine
Oh, and Miss Lily's poison is super dangerous, so you shouldn't hide in the lily of the valley field again!
Shinmyoumaru
O-OK. Thanks for the tea and all your advice!
The princess, PLAYER, and the visibly upset amanojaku made their way to the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
...
L-Lady Remilia is gonna be so mad about this! Wh-What should I do?!
Yuuka
Stop being so noisy and move on to the next chapter.
Misty Lake Mayhem
Shinmyoumaru
We somehow made it to the Misty Lake.
Seija
The Scarlet Devil Mansion is right beyond the lake...
Amanojaku & Princess
...
Seija
We're too tiny to fly all the way across... We'll run out of energy halfway there and drown.
The three stared at the lake in front of them. They'd need as much stamina as the Keiga Family's leader to fly across.
Shinmyoumaru
It's too misty to get a clear idea about how far we need to go.
Why don't we use something as a boat?
Maybe Shinmyoumaru could use her teapot!
Shinmyoumaru
That's a good idea! I'll test it out!
Shinmyoumaru
Here I go!
Shinmyoumaru
I think I hit something...
Seija
Are you OK, Princess?!
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah, I'm fine!
Shinmyoumaru
This doesn't feel like a rock. Maybe I hit the bottom of the lake. It's too misty to see, but it might not be that deep.
Seija
Wow, that's "unlucky!"
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah, we can just walk across now!
The princess waved at the two waiting on the shore and that's when it happened─
Shinmyoumaru
Wh-Whoa, there's something in the lake!
Something jumped out of the lake from right under the princess!
Wakasagihime
I-I felt something hard hit my head out of nowhere...
Shinmyoumaru
Eep, did I land on your head?!
Wakasagihime
Ow... It hurts!
Shinmyoumaru
I'm so sorry, Wakasagihime! Please calm down!
(Wakasagihime seems to be in so much pain...!)
Shinmyoumaru's gonna topple over!
Seija
This is bad! We need to go help the princess!
???
You monsters!
Kagerou
How dare you make Wakasagihime cry! You're gonna regret hurting my friend!
Sekibanki
Why would you randomly throw a teapot at her head?! How can you be so cruel?!
Seija
Huh, what are you guys talking about?! That was clearly an accident!
Seija
And that's not just a teapot...!
Seija
Ugh, you're not listening! I'm gonna have to stop you the "easy" way!
Kagerou
You're tiny, but you're tough!
Sekibanki
But I won't let you bully the weak!
Seija
That's my line! I'm the rebellious amanojaku! I stand by the weak!
Seija
But how are we gonna get to the princess with these two in our way?! This is such an "easy" task!
Wakasagihime
*sob* First, I get hit on the head, and then I get dragged into a battle... This is so unfair!
Shinmyoumaru
Aaaaaaaah! I-I'm gonna faaaall!
The amanojaku turned around only to see the princess about to fall into the lake.
Seija
Hang in there, Princess! I'm coming!
Yuki-Onna to the Rescue
???
My, my. That was a close call.
Shinmyoumaru
Huh?
???
Are you all right?
Shinmyoumaru
Y-Yeah, thanks to you...
Shinmyoumaru
...?!
Letty
Glad to hear that.
Um... Th-Thanks, Miss Letty!
(Sh-She looks like a giant!)
Letty
Teehee, don't mention it.
Letty
You may have your reasons, but you shouldn't be fighting, you know?
Kagerou
They were harassing Wakasagihime!
Sekibanki
Yeah, we can't just sit around and watch our friend being bullied!
Seija
How many times do I need to tell you it was an accident?!
Shinmyoumaru
I was being careless. I didn't mean to hurt you, Wakasagihime. Please forgive me.
Wakasagihime
I don't care about any of that. I just want it to stop hurting... I've got a big bump on my head now.
Letty
Maybe you'll feel better if I ice it. How is it now?
Wakasagihime
Ah, this feels good─
Mermaid's Friends
Wakasagihime?!
Letty
O-Oops, did I overdo it?
Shinmyoumaru
I feel bad for everything Wakasagihime had to go through, but thanks for helping me out!
Letty
Hehe, you're welcome. I can't ignore people in need of help.
The giant─
I mean, the beautiful yuki-onna appeared out of nowhere and rescued the three tiny ones. They all thanked her for it.
Shinmyoumaru
And thanks to you, too, Seija!
Seija
Why me?
Shinmyoumaru
I heard you back then─
Shinmyoumaru
Aaaaaaaah! I-I'm gonna faaaall!
Seija
Hang in there, Princess! I'm coming!
Seija
Th-That was just a reflex! I wasn't desperately trying to save you or anything!
Letty
Hehe, you're such a bad liar.
Seija
Hmph!
By the way, I know how we can cross the lake...
Miss Letty can help us.
Shinmyoumaru
That's a good idea! She can help us look for something we can use as a boat!
Letty
Are you trying to get to the other side?
Seija
Yes, we wanna go to the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
Letty
Then it must be fate that brought us together. I'll help you.
Shinmyoumaru
Really?! That'll be great!
Amanojaku & Princess
...
Letty
Be careful not to fall off, OK?
The yuki-onna decided to help them cross the lake. She carried them across...
On the palm of her hand.
Seija
I "knew" she'd act as a boat herself. It's faster than looking for something to use as a boat, but this is so "normal"!
Shinmyoumaru
I think it's perfect. It's faster than a boat would be, and the view is great from here!
Letty
We're almost there.
The scarlet mansion, that was barely visible because of the mist, was rapidly getting closer thanks to the yuki-onna.
Seija
I see the gate!
Meiling
I-Is that...?!
Meiling
A-A giant?! No, it's bigger than that! Don't tell me it's... Taisui Xingjun?!
Letty
Calling someone a giant is not very nice, you know?
Meiling
AAAAAAAAAAAH!
The one day she wasn't asleep on the job, the gatekeeper was sent flying by the yuki-onna. How unlucky.
Meiling
I was just trying to do my job!
The three tiny ones bid farewell to the yuki-onna and ventured into the mansion...
Mysterious Scarlet Mansion
The three tiny ones snuck into the scarlet mansion and began exploring. They went unnoticed because of their size.
Shinmyoumaru
Did this mansion always have so many maids?
Seija
Come to think of it, wasn't the gatekeeper also wearing a maid outfit?
I see people from Hakugyokurou and the Underworld!
Is everyone here a maid?
Shinmyoumaru
Seems like it. But why? And some of them are clearly slacking off.
None of the maids they saw could hold a candle to the mistress's favorite... the quick and elegant head maid.
...
I know Miss Sakuya is too perfect, but these guys aren't even trying!
Seija
Who cares about them? We just need to get the Miracle Mallet back!
Seija
Come on, let's find that pesky cat before those maids notice us!
The three tiny ones made their way further into the mansion. Scouring the huge mansion was no easy task.
Amanojaku & Princess
Whoa!
It would've been easier if they didn't have to worry about getting stomped to death every other second.
Shinmyoumaru
We've looked around, but it's nowhere to be found. We haven't even had the chance to ask one of the maids.
Seija
They didn't seem keen on making conversation.
Shinmyoumaru
Someone's coming! Let's hide!
Youmu
I'm going to sweep every speck of dust out of here!
Youmu
Oh my, I almost missed some dust over there.
Seija
Who are you calling dust?!
Shinmyoumaru
Shhh, Seija! You're gonna get us caught!
Seija
I-It's OK, "everyone's" going to hear!
Youmu
This isn't dust... It looks like we have tiny guests. But how can that be? No one's been invited.
Youmu
That means you're intruders!
Shinmyoumaru
Look what you did!
Seija
Time to "stay here and fight"!
Youmu
Hey, get back here! You may be quick, but you're not getting away from me!
Utsuho
The weather is lovely today! So, what are we doing here in the garden?
Rin
We're in charge of the flowers. C'mon, we gotta water them.
Utsuho
Oh, yeah. This is a pain in the neck, but we better get it done or we'll get yelled at. I miss the Palace of the Earth Spirits.
Rin
Me too... How much longer will we be stuck here─
Rin
EEK!
Utsuho
WHOA!
Youmu
Quit running around! You're not getting away this time!
Kasha & Hell Raven Maids
EEEEEEEEEP!
Utsuho
S-Stop! What are you doing?!
Youmu
Oops, sorry.
Youmu
I was about to slice you two up...
Rin
That doesn't sound good at all. Why are you swinging your swords around anyway?
Youmu
We've got intruders!
Youmu
And they're...!
Youmu
On top of your heads!
Kasha & Hell Raven Maids
WH-WHAT?!
Amanojaku & Princess
B-Busted!
Youmu
You're all going down!
Everyone
HUH?!
Youmu
Oh, no, I got distracted by the bullets, and they got away! Where did they go?!
Utsuho
I'll help you look! They're not getting away from my nuclear fusion this time!
Rin
You're just using this as an excuse to get out of doing any gardening, aren't you?
Seija
The coast is clear.
Shinmyoumaru
They weren't even willing to hear us out... What on earth is going on here?
Seija
Whatever it is, we're clearly "welcome" here. Let's go look for the mallet before they find us!!
Fighting Maids
The three tiny ones continued scouring the mansion, but there were no signs of the white cat or the Miracle Mallet.
And because of what happened earlier in the garden, most of the maids were on the lookout for them.
???
Wait, aren't those the intruders over there?
Seija
Whoa, now "weakling" maids are after us!
Shinmyoumaru
Am I going to have to slay oni like my ancestor did? Actually, that might make me a maid slayer...
Shinmyoumaru
Anyway, let's get through this somehow!
Yuugi
I think you guys are misunderstanding something. We aren't here to capture you.
Seija
Huh? So, you're "the same" as the other maids?
Suika
Yes and no. It's complicated. But it's true that we aren't here to catch you.
Um, so what exactly do you want?
Yuugi
I was so bored being a maid. And then I heard about strong intruders breaking in.
Yuugi
A little battle will be the perfect entertainment. You don't mind, do you?
Seija
Sorry, but we're busy looking for something right now...!
Suika
We ain't asking you to do us any favors. We'll reward you if you agree to do this.
Suika
I'm sure you'd like to know about the mistress of this mansion. So, do we have a deal?
The three tiny ones were tempted to accept the offer because they knew oni never lie.
But what would happen if they lost? They knew there was no way they'd go unharmed.
They were thinking about what to do when─
Kasen
You two are slacking off again, aren't you?!
Yuugi
Oh, hey, Kasen. Nice timing!
Kasen
Nice timing for what? Well, whatever. We need to find the intruders right now...
Suika
They're right there.
Kasen
What, where?!
Amanojaku & Princess
H-Hello...
Kasen
I didn't know they were so tiny!
Kasen
Tiny or not, I should've spotted them... I think I need to train harder.
Things got a bit awkward, but the oni explained everything that had happened before Kasen got there.
Kasen
Hm, I see. Gosh, you two...
It looks like she'll help us!
Seija
We're lucky she "doesn't understand."
Kasen
OK, let's get on with the battle.
Shinmyoumaru
She clearly doesn't!
Kasen
I do. That's exactly why I want this battle to happen.
Kasen
I want to see if you really are strong. I'll help if I think you're worthy.
Shinmyoumaru
Huh, what─
Meiling
I'll help, too!
Seija
Where did the gatekeeper come from?!
Meiling
Did you really think I was gone for good?!
Meiling
It isn't that easy to get rid of me! Come on, show me what you're capable of!
Shinmyoumaru
What are they thinking? Anyway, let's fight back!
Seija
Yeah, we have to "lose" and get that reward!
Suika
You guys aren't bad! Thanks for entertaining us!
Kasen
They used their size to their advantage pretty well.
Meiling
I think we can count on them!
Shinmyoumaru
Do they want our help with something...?
Seija
Y-Yeah, it sounds like it.
Yuugi
OK, as promised, we'll tell you about the mistress of this mansion.
Yuugi
She's not that easy to find, but she's mostly seen in the library, kitchen, or the garden.
Suika
I hope you find what you're looking for.
Thanks for the info!
We've already been to the garden, so...
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah, we need to check the library and the kitchen next. Let's start with the creepy library.
Kasen
And we need to begin with the preparations.
Meiling
Yes, we can't let this opportunity slip away!
An Unexpected Twist
The three tiny ones made their way to the huge library in the mansion after getting intel from the maids.
Organizing books is difficult, but it's pretty fun... Huh?
Patchouli
It's been a long time since we've had visitors.
Shinmyoumaru
H-How did she notice us so soon?!
Koakuma
Lady Patchouli, I think these are the intruders everyone's been looking for!
Seija
Whoa, things are looking really "great" for us right now!
...
...
Wait a minute! Why am I in this story?!
Koakuma
C'mon, let's take 'em to the mistress! I'm sure she'll reward us for it!
That sounds like something a bad guy would say! Sure, I'm a little devil, but that doesn't mean I'm a villain!
Patchouli
Wait, Koakuma. There's no need to be so impatient.
Patchouli
They may be intruders, but they're still our guests. I'll give them a chance to speak as long as they don't touch my books.
Koakuma
If that's what you want, Lady Patchouli...
Shinmyoumaru
Phew, it's good to see there are at least some sensible maids here! Maybe you can answer some of our questions─
Patchouli
Sorry, but the person and the thing you're looking for aren't here.
Shinmyoumaru
Oh... It looks like we got the wrong place again.
Seija
Oni "always" lie, so there's no doubt our info is "wrong." Let's go check out the kitchen, Princess!
Koakuma
Hold it right there!
Koakuma
You're not getting away from us! Get ready, 'cause you're going down!
Huh, why am I challenging them to a fight?!
Seija
I "didn't see" this coming. OK, if that's what you want, we'll "go easy" on you!
Ugh! The three tiny ones decided to fight the magician and her familiar.
What's with this story...?
Patchouli
I kind of feel bad for you.
Amanojaku & Princess
Take this!
Koakuma
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Patchouli
Gosh, that was so predictable.
I've never heard anyone scream so loud before.
But the books are fine, so all's well!
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah, luckily, our bullets didn't hit any books! C'mon, let's head for the kitchen!
Seija
I hope the mistress is still in the kitchen when we get there.
The three tiny ones made their way to the kitchen after defeating the magician and her familiar.
Koakuma
T-To be continued...
...
No fair... Why is my character so badly written?
Out of the Frying Pan
Shinmyoumaru
Whew, getting to the kitchen wasn't easy. I hope the mistress is here...
Amanojaku & Princess
Look!
The three tiny ones gasped at the sight of the person standing in front of them. It was─
Shinmyoumaru
Remilia Scarlet, the mistress of the mansion!
Remilia
Oh, hello. You must be the intruders everyone's talking about.
Seija
We finally found you! Give back the Miracle Mallet you stole from us!
Remilia
What are you talking about? I've got no time for this. I'm really busy right now.
Seija
Don't try to fool us! We know you got the white cat to steal it for you!
Remilia
What white cat? Oh, wait, I think I know what you're talking about.
Remilia, can you please return the mallet?
We wanna go back to being normal size again!
Remilia
I'm sorry, but that's not going to happen.
Shinmyoumaru
You wanna keep it for yourself, don't you?! But we won't let you!
Seija
Those bullets...! So she's finally shown herself.
Seija
Sakuya Izayoi!
Sakuya
I'm sorry, milady. I didn't expect this to happen when I stepped out of the kitchen for a bit.
Remilia
It's OK, Sakuya. You're here now.
Sakuya
You two! I hope you're prepared to face the consequences of disrespecting Lady Remilia.
Seija
She seems "friendly." But it makes sense if she's the one behind all of this.
Shinmyoumaru
...
Seija
What's wrong, Princess?
Shinmyoumaru
Can I ask you something before the battle?
Sakuya
What is it, Shinmyoumaru Sukuna?
Shinmyoumaru
The Sakuya Izayoi I know and look up to is nothing like how you're acting right now.
Shinmyoumaru
It feels like all the maids in the mansion are being forced to work here.
Shinmyoumaru
No matter how short-handed you may be, you're not the kind of person to kidnap people and force them to work.
Shinmyoumaru
The same goes for you, too, Remilia Scarlet.
Seija
Princess...
Elegant Maid & Devil Maid
...
Shinmyoumaru
Please tell us why you're doing this. We're here to take the Miracle Mallet back, but...
Shinmyoumaru
If you tell us your reasons, we might be able to help─
Sakuya
There's nothing to discuss. A maid's job is to take prompt action and get things done.
Shinmyoumaru
B-But something's not right here! I just know it! Please talk to me!
Seija
I think that's enough, Princess.
Seija
They don't want to talk, so we'll have to settle this with a battle.
Elegant Maid & Devil Maid
...
Shinmyoumaru
...
Shinmyoumaru
Fine... That's how we've made it this far, anyway.
Shinmyoumaru
If we win, we'll take the Miracle Mallet back and you'll have to tell us everything!
Remilia
Hehe! We've got some interesting visitors today. This doesn't happen often, does it, Sakuya?
Sakuya
You're right, milady. We better give them the treatment they deserve.
Remilia
Shall we begin? Let's see if you can outdo us.
Remilia
Now I understand how you managed to avoid getting caught by all the maids in the mansion.
Seija
Hand over the Miracle Mallet!
Seija
A-And answer the princess's questions!
Remilia
Very well. But I can't give you the Miracle Mallet.
Shinmyoumaru
Huh, why?!
Sakuya
It's... physically impossible.
Seija
What does that mean?! Explain properly!
Remilia
We're not trying to hide anything, so I'll tell you everything...
Remilia
Everything that's been going on in the Scarlet Devil Mansion...
Truth & Darkness
The Scarlet Devil lived peacefully with her sister and friend in her scarlet mansion that stood close to the Misty Lake.
The head maid and the fairy maids of the mansion had a busy life, but they enjoyed working there.
That's because they liked the scarlet mansion, their master, and all the other people who live there.
Their master spent every day enjoying tea parties and happily chitchatting.
But it all came to an abrupt end.
One fine day, a terrifyingly powerful youkai took over the mansion.
The youkai used her powers to turn everyone into maids!
But that wasn't enough for her. She started gathering people from all over...
And turned them all into maids. They were forced to work at the scarlet mansion.
Shinmyoumaru
N-Now it makes sense why so many maids were unwilling to work...
Remilia
And I think the one who stole your mallet is that youkai's shikigami.
Shikigami?! Does that mean the youkai is...?!
???
Oops, did you figure it out already?
Seija
It's you! You're the white cat that stole the Miracle Mallet!
Shinmyoumaru
Give it back! And set all these maids free!
Sakuya
Are you seriously confronting her?!
Ran
You're tiny, but you've got guts. I commend you for that.
Ran
But this is as far as you go. I can't have you running rampant in the mansion.
Shinmyoumaru
What are you doing?!
Ran
You just stay put.
She locked the three tiny ones in the kitchen cupboard. They were trapped.
Seija
Hey, let us out!
Chen
Haha! No.
Ran
You two need to go prepare tea for our master. I'm sure you know what happens if you disobey orders.
Sakuya
Yes, you don't need to tell us twice.
The three tiny ones were desperately banging on the door, but the Scarlet Devil and the head maid left the kitchen.
Shinmyoumaru
No one's coming to help us. We gotta find a way outta here─
Chen
Meow?!
Ran
What's wrong, Chen─
Ran
We've got more intruders! Let's go take care of them!
Chen
O-OK, Lady Ran!
Seija
I think it's safer to stay in here right now...
Shinmyoumaru
Y-Yeah...
Shinmyoumaru
Things seem to have calmed down outside. I think they left to chase away the intruders.
Seija
Being stuck in here is so "pleasant," but getting out there with all that chaos would've put us at a bigger risk.
Yeah, someone could've stepped on us!
Shinmyoumaru
A-Anyway, let's focus on trying to get outta here. Try to look for a loose screw in the hinges of the door.
Shinmyoumaru
I doubt we can pull it out, but if we hit it with our bullets, it might fall off along with the door!
Seija
And if that doesn't work, we can just blast open the door! Let's try the hinges first!
???
So that's where they've locked you up...
Amanojaku & Princess
Huh?
???
Don't worry, I'm on your side. I'll let you out right away.
???
There, you're free to go now.
Shinmyoumaru
Y-You!
Adventure Bonding
Shinmyoumaru
Thanks for setting us free. But you're the last person I expected to see here─
Shinmyoumaru
Satori Komeiji.
Satori
I didn't expect to see you here either.
Satori
It looks like you three haven't been turned into maids. And yet you've chosen to dress like that.
Seija
Uh... I "wouldn't" choose to dress like a maid if it were up to me!
Shinmyoumaru
Um, you don't seem to be a maid either. You weren't kidnapped, were you?
Satori
That's right. I came here of my own volition to take back what was stolen from me. I'm just like the three of you.
Shinmyoumaru
So you know we're here to get my Miracle Mallet back?
Satori
Of course. I'm a satori youkai, after all.
Satori
I'm here for the three most important people in my life. Have you seen my pets around?
Y-Yeah, I saw Orin and Okuu dressed as maids!
But if there's a third one, then does that mean...?!
Satori
You probably haven't seen her around.
Seija
Who's the third one?
Satori
It's my sister, Koishi. She left the palace, saying she wanted to visit someone in this mansion and bring Orin and Okuu back.
Satori
I was searching every corner of the mansion when I heard you three.
Seija
Wait, so does that mean you're the other intruder who was creating all that commotion earlier?
Satori
That wasn't me. I just got here. But I did hear the others fighting someone...
Shinmyoumaru
Well, anyway, thanks for letting us out! By the way, did you find anyone thinking about my Miracle Mallet?
Shinmyoumaru
You can read minds, so maybe you know where it is...
Satori
I'm sorry, I don't.
Satori
...
Satori
But are you sure it's safe to use the Miracle Mallet to turn yourselves back to normal?
Satori
Don't you think it's too risky?
Seija
It probably "isn't," but it's not like we have any other choice.
Satori
Maybe it's not my place to say this, but I think they deserve to know, Seija Kijin.
Seija
Wh-What are you talking about?
Satori
About your wish.
Satori
They need to understand the reason why all of this is happening.
Satori
You need to tell them, or you may regret it later.
Seija
...
Shinmyoumaru
Seija...?
Seija
There's no other way, huh...?
Seija
All right, fine!
Seija
S-So, back then...
She spoke about what happened when she used the replica Miracle Mallet to smash the chocolate bars.
Seija
Maybe I can use this to smash them all at once!
Seija
I'm sure the princess would be "sad" if I get this done quick. I'll finish smashing these chocolate bars too...
The amanojaku was thinking about the princess who saw her as a friend.
Seija
(I wonder how the princess sees this world that's filled with strong people who do as they please.)
Seija
(Even I took advantage of her in the past. But if possible...)
Seija
(I wanna know what it's like to see the world as she sees it...)
Seija
I-I didn't mean that!
Satori
It looks like you were right. The replica Miracle Mallet seems to have wish-granting powers.
Satori
Or maybe the wish was a coincidence, and there was something wrong with the chocolate.
Satori
Either way, we must get the mallet back. I don't need to read minds to know it can be misused if it gets in the wrong hands.
Does that mean you're gonna help us?
Satori
Yes. We're facing the same enemy, after all.
Seija
...
Shinmyoumaru
Seija...
Seija
Wh-What?
Shinmyoumaru
Thank you.
Seija
Huh?
Shinmyoumaru
I just felt like thanking you after hearing what you said earlier.
Shinmyoumaru
Let's go on a journey together after this mess has been sorted out.
Shinmyoumaru
I reckon who we are, where we came from, and our size affect how we see the world, but not as much as you might think.
Shinmyoumaru
We can all appreciate beauty and experience happiness. No one has the complete opposite emotions to someone else.
Shinmyoumaru
Maybe not everything is the same, but that's what makes life interesting.
Shinmyoumaru
So let's go see the world together! I'm sure it'll be fun!
Seija
Hehe, it looks like I "have" a choice!
Seija
All right! I "won't" go with you!
Shinmyoumaru
It's a promise!
Satori
Communication is key to building strong relationships. I'm sure this is going to help us overcome this situation.
Did you know this would happen?
Satori
I wouldn't say that.
Satori
The mind is a complicated thing. It's easy to read but really difficult to decipher.
New Allies
The three tiny ones were set free from the kitchen cupboard by the kind satori youkai.
Satori joined them in their mission to find the Miracle Mallet, and they began looking for it together.
Seija
Whoa, we're going so fast!
Satori
This is just my normal walking speed...
Thanks for carrying us! This is much faster and safer!
(Now I understand how Shinmyoumaru feels!)
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah, we're making good progress! Running past people on the floor was so scary.
Seija
Now we've got "everything" to worry about!
Satori
Isn't that...?
Rumia
Oh, hey! It's the yummy-looking tiny ones from earlier!
Amanojaku & Princess
So much for "nothing to worry about"!
Rumia
I came right when the sweets were ready, but the white cat and the fox got in my way.
Seija
So YOU were the intruder in the kitchen!
Rumia
I didn't get to eat the sweets, so I'm gonna have you guys for dinner!
Amanojaku & Princess
HUUUUUUUH?!
Satori
C-Calm down, everyone!
???
HEY!
Satori
Is that who I think it is...?!
Koishi
Stop bullying my sister and the tiny people!
Koishi
Wait a minute... What are you doing here, Satori?
Satori
Why don't we all calm down and talk this out?
Koishi & Rumia
Ooooooh, sweets!
Shinmyoumaru
I didn't expect Koishi to show up like that. And it's good you had sweets with you.
Seija
How are you so "underprepared"? Are these the emergency rations you brought along with you?
Satori
No, I got them from the kitchen earlier.
Satori
I heard a voice in my head that said, "I wanna eat these sweets." Good thing I grabbed some.
Well done, Miss Satori!
Koishi & Rumia
I'm stuffed!
Rumia
That was so yummy!
Koishi
Yeah!
Satori
Now that everyone's satisfied, let's talk.
Koishi
You wanted to know why we're here, right?
Rumia
I was hungry, so I came here to have sweets. Thanks for giving me some!
Satori
Y-You're welcome. (It doesn't look like she's lying.)
Satori
What about you, Koishi? Didn't you say you wanted to visit someone here?
Koishi
Yeah, I came to meet my friend who lives here!
Koishi
But she wasn't in her room! I wonder where she went.
Koishi
Anyway, what about you guys? Why are you here?
Shinmyoumaru
Um, that's a long story─
Koishi
Oh, wow! That sounds like fun!
Shinmyoumaru
R-Really?
Koishi
Can I join you guys? Maybe it'll help me find Okuu and Orin faster!
Satori
This isn't a game, Koishi.
Koishi
Yeah, yeah, I know!
Koishi
You should come too, Rumia!
Amanojaku & Princess
Huh?
Rumia
OK! Maybe Remilia and her maids will feed me more sweets if we beat the bad guys!
Oh, now I know why Rumia is so hungry...
The mansion's new master cut off her sweet supply.
Shinmyoumaru
That makes her a victim, too.
Seija
I doubt the old master used to feed her, either. I'm pretty sure she'd just take the food without asking.
Koishi
Hurry up and hop on! I'll carry you all!
Satori
I'll take Miss PLAYER.
Rumia
Let's goooooooo!
Satori
There are so many fairy maids here, and they're clearly not taking this lightly.
Rumia
Urgh, they're getting in my way!
Koishi
Move, you pesky fairies!
Amanojaku & Princess
Whoa, don't drop us!
Shinmyoumaru
Phew, we managed to hang on somehow.
Seija
Traveling like this might be faster, but it isn't worth losing our lives over...
???
There you are! You're the intruders, aren't you?!
Seija
Wait... I know you!
The Rebellion Begins
A new maid stood in front of PLAYER and the others.
Flandre
Stop making so much noise! Sakuya's gonna be mad!
Everyone
...
Flandre
...
Koishi & Rumia
...
Koishi
There you are! I've been looking for you!
Koishi
Flandre!
Flandre
What are you doing here?!
Koishi
I hadn't seen you in a while, so I thought I'd visit! And I'm also looking for Okuu and Orin!
Koishi
But wait... Why are you dressed as a maid?
Shinmyoumaru
They've probably turned her into one, too.
Seija
So she's the friend you wanted to meet, huh?
Satori
Gosh, Koishi, I don't know what to do about you.
Rumia
I wanna eat more sweets. Didn't you guys make a new batch?
Flandre
Yeah, we've got more, but none for a food thief like you!
Rumia
Awww, why can't I have any?
Flandre
And anyway, this isn't the time for sweets!
Koishi
How are Orin and Okuu? I wanna take them back home with me.
Flandre
They're fine, but I don't think they can ever go back.
Koishi
Why not?!
Flandre
'Cause our mansion's been taken over by some bad guys!
Shinmyoumaru
Do you know if they've stolen anything lately?
Flandre
Yeah, I saw the cat come back with something. I think they said they needed it for some plan of theirs.
Satori
OK, so now we know they kidnapped all these people and stole the Miracle Mallet to execute their evil plan.
Satori
I feel like I know who's behind this...
Who?!
(I think I know who she means...!)
Satori
You're right. It's─
Stooooooooooop! We don't need spoilers!
Satori
...All right, fine.
Seija
I'm just gonna pretend that didn't happen...
Shinmyoumaru
A-Anyway... I think we all have the same enemy here.
Let's set all the maids free and get the mallet back!
Flandre
Can you really set us free?!
Flandre
I wanna destroy this whole maid situation. I don't know why I haven't already done it.
The devil's younger sister didn't consider breaking free until they said it. (It's weird, but that's the kind of story this is!)
Seija
We have to turn things around! We gotta rebel!
Flandre
I like the way you think! C'mon, I'll take you guys to them.
Flandre
I'll also help you beat them up!
Flandre
I hate that they forced us all to be maids! I'm sick of this maid life!
Seija
Do you really know where the new master is? The other maids told us exactly where she "was" before.
Flandre
Yeah, the cat's master has been occupying a room in the basement. I saw her going there not that long ago.
Satori
It seems like she just shows up in her favorite spots in the mansion whenever she feels like it.
Satori
That's why we haven't run into her yet. She must be enjoying tea in that room now.
Shinmyoumaru
Come to think of it, I heard them talking about tea time when we were locked in the kitchen cupboard.
Rumia
Then what are we waiting for?! Let's go there before they eat up all the sweets!
Flandre
All this talk about her is making me mad! I've been so stressed with the work she's forced us to do!
Flandre
A battle of bullets will be the perfect stress reliever! I'll take you to her room after the battle!
Koishi
That's a good idea! Let's all have a blast!
Rumia
I don't mind a little workout before dinner!
Amanojaku & Princess
Should've seen this coming...
Satori
Just try to keep it down.
Flandre
That was fun! Thanks for playing!
Shinmyoumaru
Now, can you please take us to her?
Flandre
Of course! Follow me... Huh?
The devil's little sister was surprised to see the people who appeared in front of her.
They were─
Kasen
Sorry we're late. The preparations took some time.
What are you gonna do?!
Remilia
Let's begin the tale of our rebellion!
World of Maids Project
Shinmyoumaru
It's the room over there. That's where we'll find the one responsible for this.
Seija
I see. But I must say...
Seija
It's amazing how we've got so many rebels on our side!
Seija
All right, it's time to turn the tables on her!
The three tiny ones and the maids entered the room.
The prankster white cat and the fox they met earlier were in there along with─
The terrifying youkai sage who was behind everything that went on in this very odd world!
Yukari
Couldn't you have entered without making so much noise? You're ruining my tea time.
The sage sighed while gracefully taking a sip of her tea. (I can't believe Yukari Yakumo is the villain of this story!)
Shinmyoumaru
You better set the maids free and return my Miracle Mallet!
Yukari
What makes you think I'll do as you say? I won't do either of those things.
Chen
Yeah, now get lost!
Ran
The maids and the mallet are essential to Lady Yukari's grand plan.
Seija
What useless plan has she come up with now?
Yukari
It's quite brilliant, if I may say so myself.
Yukari
I'll tell you all about it as your reward for making it this far.
Yukari
I've been waiting so long for this day. My phenomenal plan will soon be complete. I call it─
Yukari
The World of Maids Project!
Amanojaku & Princess
…
Everyone
…
Huh...?
What kind of story is this?!
Meiling
How dare you take over the Scarlet Devil Mansion for your personal gain! This is absolutely unforgivable!
Kasha & Hell Raven Maids
You dragged us here against our will!
Oni Maids
You told us you were taking us to a big party! You lied to us!
Hard-Working Maids
Do you know how hard it was for us to get the other maids to actually work?!
Yukari
So what?
Yukari
I did all that to turn everyone in Gensokyo into maids.
Yukari
And with the Miracle Mallet, I can easily mass-produce maid costumes and turn anyone into a maid.
Yukari
The world will soon be under my control!
Shinmyoumaru
Yukari Yakumo, I'm sure you know very well that using the Miracle Mallet comes at a price.
Shinmyoumaru
Are you still going to use it?!
Yukari
You think I'm afraid of that?
Amanojaku & Princess
What?!
Yukari
If I was, I'd never even consider using the Miracle Mallet.
Yukari
The villain never fears the consequences!
Seija
W-Wow, I can almost respect that...!
Satori
It doesn't look like we can talk her out of this...
Um, you're causing a lot of trouble for everyone...
So please give yourself up, Miss Yukari!
Yukari
Oh my, I'm so scared. I might crush you all out of fear.
Yukari
But that would be too boring. Let's make things interesting.
Kasen
Interesting how?
Yukari
If you win against my two adorable shikigami, I'll give you the honor of fighting me.
Koishi
I don't know what's happening, but this sounds like fun!
Rumia
*nom* I'd rather eat sweets than this cat, so I'll help!
Chen
Meow?! Stop biting me!
Ran
You may have snuck up on Chen, but you'll need more than cheap tricks to beat us!
Ran
We're going to erase you all from existence for Lady Yukari!
Ran
Or even better, we'll turn you into maids!
Remilia
If you haven't noticed, almost all of us are already maids...
Sakuya
You shouldn't take a jab at people at times like these, Lady Remilia.
Ran
Come on, show me what you're made of, you reckless fools!
Ran
How did we lose?!
Chen
I'm sorry, Lady Yukari...
Patchouli
We won, but we've taken too much damage...
Seija
The tables have turned! You better surrender before you regret it.
Yukari
Hehe, I guess you've got a point.
Yukari
It's just me against all of you. I may lose if I'm careless.
Yukari
And that's why...
Yukari
I'm going to ask my friends to join me!
Yukari's Closest Allies
Shinmyoumaru
You're kidding, right?!
Meiling
This has got to be a dream!
Yukari
I assure you this is no dream!
Yukari
This is as real as it gets!
Seija
Hey, that's completely "fair"!
Remilia
I can't believe you called the secret god and the nameless divine spirit for help.
Yukari
Is it really that odd?
Yukari
But wait... why hasn't my third friend shown up yet?!
Youmu
Um...
Youmu
If you're trying to summon Lady Yuyuko, then I don't think she's coming.
Yukari
Wh-Why not?!
Youmu
Um, I'm sorry but...
Youmu
She said she was going to watch the cherry blossoms, so this isn't the right time...
Yukari
I-Is she seriously choosing cherry blossoms over her dear friend?!
Junko
I can't believe I've been summoned for such a stupid reason...
Okina
I was thinking the exact same thing. It's funny that we agree for once.
Okina
Oh, well...
Okina
Things look quite interesting, so I guess I'll stick around and see how this plays out.
Junko
Of course, you'd say that. This doesn't interest me in the slightest, so I'm going to head back.
Junko
I've got plans to go to a cafe with Hecatia.
Yukari
W-Wait! I didn't say you could leave!
Yukari
...
Yukari
Okina, I hope at least you're going to help me!
Yukari
Right?!
Okina
Didn't you hear? I said I'm just sticking around to see how things play out. No one said anything about helping you.
Yukari
But why?!
Okina
Stop throwing tantrums!
Flandre
I hate it when Okina says stuff like that.
Yukari
*sob* How mean. Why can't anyone take my side for once?!
Koishi
Hey, Miss Sage!
Koishi
You don't have any friends, do you?!
Yukari
...!
Satori
Stop it, Koishi!
Satori
That's rude. The harsh truth can be traumatizing, even for a sage like her.
(Koishi definitely touched a nerve!)
(And Miss Satori is just making it worse!)
Seija
She really doesn't have friends, does she?
Yukari
SHUUUUUUUT UUUUUUUUUP!
Yukari
I can defeat you all by myself!
The sage swung the Miracle Mallet in her hand─
She created friends by cloning herself! Now she won't feel lonely anymore.
Shinmyoumaru
I can't believe she actually used the Miracle Mallet!
Okina
That was stupid... You're such a spoilsport.
Yukari
Now I don't need anyone else! Who cares about friends?! I'm not outnumbered anymore!
Yukari's Friend A
She's got me, the super motivated battle-loving Yukari Yakumo!
Yukari's Friend B
And me, the pure and honest Yukari Yakumo in a uniform!
Yukari's Friend C
And don't forget me, the cheerful Yukari Yakumo in a fabulous kimono!
Yukari
Let's see if you can win against all of us!
Yukari
H-How am I the only one standing...?
Remilia
We took a huge hit with that battle, but we can still keep going. Am I right?
Sakuya
Of course, milady.
Yukari
This is bad. I'm in big trouble now. I don't like this horrible story.
Yukari
─Is that what you expected me to say?
Yukari
Why would I when I've got the Miracle Mallet?!
Seija
It sounds like she's over her trauma...
Shinmyoumaru
It's good that she isn't sad anymore, but it's going to be a pain to deal with her now.
Rumia
Is that sooooo?
Koishi
So it seems.
Yukari
Are you done chatting? You better get ready to lose this time─
Seija
Wh-What's happening?!
Shinmyoumaru
I-It's...!
Turning Tides
Suddenly, a loud bang echoed through the scarlet mansion as the walls crumbled, creating a cloud of dust.
Nobody knew what had happened. They saw someone standing in front of them as the cloud of dust cleared up─
Letty
Oops, maybe I overdid it.
M-Miss Letty?! What are you doing here?!
Letty
I got worried because you didn't return after I dropped you here.
Yuuka
You didn't have to destroy the mansion, though.
Medicine
It's lucky no one got hurt...
Miss Yuuka and Medicine! Thanks for coming!
Okina
This is getting interesting. Don't you agree, Yukari?
Yukari
A-As if this makes any difference. I'm not going to surrender.
Yukari
I've still got the Miracle Mallet. I'll just make more Yukaris─
Shinmyoumaru
Not so fast!
Yukari
You sneaky little...!
Seija
This rebellion is far from "started!"
Yukari
Well, whatever. More than half your people are down. And it's not like you can do anything in your tiny bodies.
Shinmyoumaru
Yes, there are a lot of things tiny people can't do... But there are plenty of things only we can do!
Seija
We "are" the kind to give up! Size matters not!
Seija
Who's with me?
Yukari
Do you really think you can beat me just because you pretend to be friends? You're still pathetically small.
Yukari
Your so-called "power of friendship" isn't going to cut it this time!
Okina
It looks like you lost, Yukari...
Yukari
How is that possible...?
The sage was weak after the battle, and so all the magically transformed maids returned to their original forms.
Shinmyoumaru
I finally got my mallet back. I hope this works, and you two can also go back to your old selves.
Seija
Even if it doesn't work, we can just go on another adventure to find something that does. Right, Princess?
Shinmyoumaru
Ahahaha! That's true!
Seija
I'll use it!
Shinmyoumaru
Why you?!
Seija
Um...
Seija
This "wasn't" all my fault! So I don't mind paying the price for using the mallet!
Seija
A-Also, um, you're my "archnemesis!"
Shinmyoumaru
Thanks, Seija...
Seija
OK, here I go.
Amanojaku & Princess
It worked!
Shinmyoumaru
I wonder what price you'll have to pay, though. It wasn't a big wish, so I guess you'll be fine until it's time to pay.
Seija
I don't think it'll be that bad─
???
What's going on?!
Seija
H-Huh?!
Ran
The mansion's destroyed, and we lost the battle...
Chen
And Lady Yukari...!
Chen
Shrunk in size!
Yukari
Why did this have to happen to me?!
You reap what you sow.
The sage had done so many bad deeds that it all came back to bite her. She had to pay the price for Seija, too.
(But she looks so cute...)
Yukari
*sob* I won't forget this! I'll get my revenge by turning you all into maids!
Yuuka
All's well that ends well.
Letty
It's good I decided to come here.
Medicine
Yay! Let's have a tea party when we meet again!
The three tiny ones bid farewell to everyone and went back to the Inverted Castle.
All the kidnapped maids were set free, and they went back to where they came from.
Mansion Residents
...
Remilia
We need to rebuild the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
Only the gate was still standing. The yuki-onna helped them rebuild the mansion, but that's a story for another day.
The End...?
Koakuma
─The end!
Cirno
That was fun!
Daiyousei
I was sweating the whole time! With all that suspense, I accidentally squished the candy I was gonna eat!
Lily White
Ew, you're all sticky now!
???
Did you like the new kamishibai stage?
Koakuma
Yeah, thanks! But I think some of the story beats it chose might've been a bit too dramatic...!
Hecatia
Nothing wrong with a little excitement!
Clownpiece
Wow, Lady Hecatia, that was one LUNATIC kamishibai!
Hecatia
I'm glad you liked it! Now it feels like it was worth taking the trouble to make it!
Hecatia
I had a little dispute with Yukari over the tiny swap box a while back, but now I feel much better!
Koakuma
So, how does this kamishibai stage create new stories?
Hecatia
I've used a technique that lets it automatically create stories and also rearrange certain constant elements.
Hecatia
It's, like, a little magic item I created. It was pretty easy to make.
Koakuma
(It feels like a lot of care went into making it, though...)
Hecatia
By the way, Yukari Yakumo is the constant. It'll always create stories with her as the bad guy, a fool, or a creep.
Koakuma
So that's why she always suffers at the end, no matter how many times I create new stories. I kinda feel bad for her.
Hecatia
It's OK, it's not like she's suffering in real life.
Familiar Voice
So basically, you made this kamishibai stage to humiliate me with its comical stories. Isn't that right?
Hecatia
...
Hecatia
Huh...?
Seija
─OK, so I get that you saw some weird kamishibai.
Seija
But why do we have to dress up as maids?!
Shinmyoumaru
I really liked the maid outfits in the kamishibai.
Shinmyoumaru
There's no harm in pretending to be maids once in a while!
You guys look great in them!
The maid cafe's gonna be fun!
Shinmyoumaru
C'mon, let's get everything ready!
Seija
Gah, why do I get stuck with making chocolates...
Seija
…
Seija
...
Seija
...
Seija
Ugh, this is too much work!
Seija
Maybe I can use this to smash them all at once!
Seija
I'm sure the princess would be "sad" if I get this done quick. I'll finish smashing these chocolate bars too...
Yukari's Kamishibai
Yukari
Hello, everyone. How have you been? It's me, Yukari Yakumo, the youkai sage.
Yukari
That kamishibai was so mean. Why was I the villain of the story?!
Yukari
I'm such a pure and innocent sage... Even though I haven't given up on my plan to mass-produce maid outfits.
Yukari
I know Hecatia and I had a little disagreement, but the kamishibai was pretty much bullying.
Yukari
Don't you agree, PLAYER?
Yukari
You do, right?
Y-Yes, I did feel sorry for you!
(I knew she hadn't given up on the maid outfits...)
Yukari
Bullying is the only word for it.
Yukari
That's why I borrowed the kamishibai stage and took the liberty of modifying it.
Modified it how...?
Yukari
Say hello to the new kamishibai!
Yukari
Get ready for a brand-new story―written by me, of course!
In a forest far, far away, there was a little princess, an amanojaku, and their friend PLAYER.
One day, a woman came to these three heroes for help.
She was an honest and peace-loving sage...
...named Yukari Yakumo!
The sage told the three heroes about the great danger the world was in.
Shinmyoumaru
We knew something was wrong.
Seija
Yeah, everything that's going on is completely "normal."
Seija
Including the way we're dressed!
Yukari
The terrifying Goddess of Hell is behind it all.
Yukari
The world's still the same shape, but everything in it has gotten much bigger. It's turned into a gigantic Hell!
Yukari
The Goddess of Hell wants to create chaos in the world and destroy it completely.
Yukari
You must defeat her and save the world!
Don't worry, you can count on us!
Yukari
I knew you'd understand, PLAYER.
Shinmyoumaru
But... why are we dressed as maids?
Yukari
Those outfits will protect you from the goddess's dark powers.
Seija
Then why aren't you wearing one?
Yukari
Because I prefer admiring others dressed as maids... I-I mean, because I'm a sage.
Seija
"Everything" makes sense right now, but...
Seija
We're going to turn things around! That's what you want, right?
Yukari
Exactly. I'm counting on you, my tiny rebel heroes!
And so the sage and the three tiny heroes set out on a journey to defeat the evil Goddess of Hell.
Amanojaku & Princess
AAAAAAAH!
Shinmyoumaru
Th-That bird's gonna get us!
Seija
Hurry! We need to get out of the forest... EEEEP!
Shinmyoumaru
S-Seija!
Yukari
I have a bad feeling about this...
Big Fairies!
As our heroes and the sage traveled through the forest, they narrowly avoided being eaten by birds and falling into pits.
Shinmyoumaru
I didn't know this would be so difficult...
Star Sapphire
Hm, things here are still small.
Sunny Milk
The fruits everywhere else were huge, and we could eat as much as we wanted! Too bad it's not the same here.
Luna Child
We've become giant, so now we can't play pranks or hide and seek!
Star Sapphire
But there are other things we can do. Let's play something while we wait for the forest to grow in size!
Seija
The world's shape hasn't changed, but at this rate, won't all the forests and mountains be trampled flat?
Yukari
That's a very real possibility. Which is why this situation is so serious.
Cirno
WHOA! I'm a giant!
Cirno
Just like the STRONGEST fairy should be!
Eternity Larva
Look, I'm the biggest fairy there is!
Cirno
No way! I'm at least 9 centimeters taller than you!
Clownpiece
Nuh-uh! I'm LUNATIC big!
Eternity Larva
That's only 'cause of your hat! No fair!
Cirno
Yeah, that's cheating!
Clownpiece
Then what about your ribbon and your antenna?! They shouldn't count, either!
Even as giants, they're still full of life!
(In fact, I'm kinda scared they'll step on me!)
Shinmyoumaru
Let's try and sneak past them...
Seija
It's going to be a pain if they spot us... literally.
Sunny Milk
Oh, hey, Cirno! What are you guys doing?
Amanojaku & Princess
...!
Giant fairies kept showing up, making it difficult for our three heroes to pass.
Whatever way you slice it, they were in big trouble... But what story would be complete without trouble?!
Clownpiece
Wait a minute... Is there someone over there?
Amanojaku & Princess
Eep.
Star Sapphire
You're right. They're so tiny and cute.
Luna Child
This is perfect! Why don't we play with them?
Cirno
Ooooh, that sounds like fun!
Eternity Larva
Yeah! What do you guys wanna play?
Seija
We're too tiny to play anything with you giants!
Shinmyoumaru
I hoped it wouldn't come to this, but it looks like we'll have to make a run for it!
Yukari
Well, this is a problematic turn of events. Good luck dealing with them.
Amanojaku & Princess
Aren't you gonna help us?!
(Way Too) Big Fairies
Let's play with a battle of bullets!
Eternity Larva
Huh, where did they go?
Clownpiece
That's strange... I'm pretty sure they were over there.
Sunny Milk
Maybe they're playing hide and seek! Star, Luna, it's time to put your abilities to use!
Luna & Star
Got it!
Fairies of Light
Fooooound 'em!
Big Fairies
EEK!
Fairies of Light
AAAAH!
Seija
Now's our chance! Let's "stay and fight!"
Shinmyoumaru
Sorry, fairies!
Our heroes escaped from the giant fairies and continued on their journey to put an end to the Goddess of Hell's evil plan.
Yukari
Yep, everything's going as planned. I can't wait to see how this all ends.
Yukari
Surely you agree, Hecatia?
World-Ending Performance
Our heroes successfully escaped the giant fairy-infested forest and followed the sage to a massive lake.
Shinmyoumaru
Whoa, what's that noise?! My eardrums feel like they're about to burst!
Yukari
This noise will destroy more than just your eardrums. It's going to bring down that mansion over there.
Seija
W-Was that an earthquake?!
Yukari
Not exactly, but if you don't do something, everything in this area will end up getting destroyed.
So we have to stop the noise AND the shaking...?!
But where are they coming from?!
Lunasa
We're so huge that we can't perform inside anymore...
Lyrica
But playing music outside has its own charm! It's lucky our instruments got bigger with us!
Merlin
Now even people really far away will be able to hear our music and feel happy, which makes us happy too!
Yatsuhashi
It's finally time for tools to rule!
Benben
I don't know about that, but our performance is gonna sound awesome with these giant instruments!
Mai
I feel like I just stepped on something... Oh well! I'm having too much fun dancing to care!
Satono
You've grown in size, but you're still as careless as ever! But, yeah, I agree dancing is more fun now!
Kokoro
Watching you guys enjoy yourselves so much is making me wanna dance, too!
Kokoro
I'm gonna join in!
Amanojaku & Princess
...
Shinmyoumaru
They'd be pretty loud even if they weren't giants...
Seija
I guess we should count ourselves lucky that the drum tsukumogami and the yamabiko's band aren't here.
Shinmyoumaru
I know they're having fun, but we gotta stop them before they destroy the world.
Seija
It's going to be quite the headache, but I guess you're right.
Yukari
You better hurry, or this will be the end of the story.
Yukari
Or maybe I should invite some guests to "motivate" you?
Amanojaku & Princess
N-No, thank you!
Seija
We'll find a way to shut them up!
Shinmyoumaru
It sucks to have to resort to bullets... but we have to stop them!
Seija
It took us all afternoon, but we managed to stop them.
Shinmyoumaru
Yep, they won't step on us now. It's a bit late for the mansion, though.
Our heroes had saved the world, but they were yet to defeat their true foe.
They were about to move on, when suddenly...
???
You all seem to be enjoying yourselves.
Yukari
Great, now we don't have to go looking for you. It's time to finish this!
Face-To-Face With Evil
Shinmyoumaru
S-So that's the Goddess of Hell... the one responsible for making everything gigantic?!
Yukari
That's right. She's the one you need to defeat.
Seija
U-Um...
Seija
Why can't I see her whole face?
Hecatia
Hey! It's 'cause I'm too big!
Hecatia
Maybe if I bend down a little...
The Goddess of Hell was so huge that it was difficult to fit her face in the frame. How terrifying!
Hecatia
Gah, I've tried every angle and I still can't fit in frame!
Yukari
Come on, everyone. Now's your chance. Take her down while she's still distracted!
Seija
Whoa, what's going on?!
Shinmyoumaru
Why have you turned into a giant?!
Amanojaku & Princess
Yukariii!
Yukari
Wh-Why is this happening?!
Yukari
You did something to the kamishibai stage, didn't you?!
Hecatia
What kamishibai stage? I haven't the faintest clue what you're talking about!
Yukari
There's no point lying about it now... Maybe I'll just defeat you myself!
Hecatia
Aw, are you trying to scare me? 'Kay then, I won't hold back!
They're gonna end up destroying the world!
Shinmyoumaru
W-We gotta stop them!
Seija
Yeah, we can't just sit on the sidelines.
Amanojaku & Princess
We hope you're ready!
Big Hell Goddess & Sage
HUH?!
Meanwhile, in the real world, in front of the kamishibai stage.
Koakuma
P-Please stop fighting!
Yukari
You think only you can change things?! I'll make you an even bigger giant!
Hecatia
Fine. Then I'm gonna make the Moon fall on your head!
Yukari
That's so mean! Why don't I change that design on your T-shirt─
Hecatia
Oh, so now you have a problem with my T-shirt, huh? Well, then how about I─
Koakuma
S-Somebody, please make them stop!
The Final Twist
At the Misty Lake, in front of the kamishibai stage― Yukari and Hecatia had been fighting for some time...
Koakuma
U-Um...
Hecatia & Yukari
What is it?
Koakuma
I don't know how to say this, but the kamishibai has already finished...
Hecatia & Yukari
Huh?!
Koakuma
I-I'll read the ending for you.
Seija
They were so crazy...
Shinmyoumaru
Yeah, but everyone's back to normal now, so I think we can call this a happy ending.
All's well that ends well!
What do say we go on a new adventure?!
The sage who had approached the heroes for help was actually evil and had been plotting to destroy the world.
However, both the sage and the Goddess of Hell were defeated by the heroes.
Nobody knows what happened to the sage or the goddess after that...
But who cares? This pointless story is finally over! ...The end!
Koakuma
That clear things up for you?
Hecatia & Yukari
Unacceptable!
Yukari
I'm going to make another story, and you better not interfere this time!
Hecatia
I'm the one who made the kamishibai stage, you know? I'm not gonna let you do as you please!
Hecatia & Yukari
But I still don't understand why it ended that way...
Okina
So, how did you like my story?
Hecatia & Yukari
O-Okina?!
Yukari
What are you doing here?! And how did you manage to change the story?!
Okina
I'm the god of back doors and arts. And if you hadn't noticed, this kamishibai stage has a door.
Okina
So I had absolutely no problem making changes to the story. Luckily, the two of you were busy fighting.
Okina
And I think I had every right to make those changes.
Okina
Especially since we made a special appearance in the last kamishibai.
Hecatia
Junko was involved, too?!
Okina
You can think of it as our performance fee.
Hecatia & Yukari
