Chieri and Shizuka are very close to their cousins Kazunari and Banri whenever they’re getting along with each other as they have shown their pride and willpower to make them blessed and inspired, so that both Kazunari and Banri will continue to develop their relationship with them as cousins. It’s so nice for them that they have attended the great banquet, just to witness their cousins getting along with the members of the Luminous Camellia, the group that Subaru’s friends formed. Chieri and Shizuka are feeling optimistic that they’re going to keep their compassion for their cousins Kazunari and Banri and hopefully, they’ll be planning to work together to bless and inspire their community for sure!;) Also, I made a change before I posted this update because this was supposedly posted last week (November 17), but it was moved to today (November 24) to prevent the conflict of two previous updates, Red Section-Chapter 91 (posted last November 17) and 92 (posted last November 21), while the next update, Red Section-Chapter 94, will be posted on November 28 (Sunday) instead. I know that this was supposedly posted last week, but these two previous updates have their own important events to commemorate with as Red Section-Chapter 91 was focused on the Bravehearts of Sapporo in honor of the release of the new Pokémon video games, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, while Red Section-Chapter 92 was focused on Kana Toriyama, a friend of Shizuku Ōsaka (CV: Kaori Maeda) of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club from Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. It's great that these previous update have been posted on the right dates, which allows today's update to be more bloomed to introduce both Chieri Uehara and Shizuka Hirokawa to the series and I'm happy with that after all!;) Hopefully, I'll try to think about what to do on making the schedule on when I will post next before making it to happen because I'll get used to it in no time!:) Speaking of the next update, while Chieri and Shizuka are going to stay with their cousins to celebrate the development of the friendship of the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka, there will be more guests to attend the great banquet as the next update will be focused on the cousins of Aoi Ogiyama, Satsuki Kakizono and Tae Mishōji. They’ll be getting with their friends from the Nishina Red Katana as they’ll also be attending that event as well, so that they’ll be able to bless and inspire Aoi, Satsuki and Tae with their smiles. Hopefully, you’re all excited to have another side chapter with new characters to be appearing and so, get ready to take a glimpse on them in the next update!:) I’ll see you on November 28 (Sunday) for the next update of Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts!

LATER TONIGHT: A Special Message from Yu Takasaki
 
A Special Message from Yu Takasaki

Hi, everyone! This is Yu Takasaki of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I’m here to share about the three braveheart groups in the Tokyo Bay, which are composed of the Bravehearts of Minato, the Bravehearts of Takanawa and the Bravehearts of Kōtō. You already met the two braveheart groups in the past updates, which were the Bravehearts of Minato and the Bravehearts of Takanawa, but it’s going to be more surprising when I’m going to explain about them including how they have occasionally met with each other in different ways. Of course, I’ll be explaining about them and how they would be like when they lead their community. First up, the Bravehearts of Minato, it’s the group that our friends lead in the northern part of Minato and Odaiba, led by Kōji Hanagata. They’re one of the friendliest braveheart groups in Tokyo due to their strong determination and charismatic teamwork when they have worked together to shine their community. They have been dreaming themselves of leading their community with their own ambitions because they want to create their future, so that they’ll be able to cherish everyone for sure. In a coincidence, the cousins of Ayumu Uehara and Shizuku Ōsaka were part of that group due to the special connection between our school idol club and that braveheart group where Shinako Takanashi, Azusa Uehara and Maika Kayama were the cousins of Ayumu and Hinako Ōsaka was the cousin of Shizuku. As a result, the relationship between our school idol club and that braveheart group had been developed greatly with smiles and thrills being made. Next up, the Bravehearts of Takanawa. It’s the group that represented the southern part of Minato plus Azabu and parts of Aoyama, but not close to Shibuya, and led by Yukihiro Nakayama. They have been very confident to show their pride and willpower, so that they’ll be able to work together to give their community in southern Minato some beautiful blessings. One thing that you’re looking at them is that they’re very focused on elevating themselves by excelling in academics and helping everyone in their community with brightest ideas that they showed with. And last but the least, the Bravehearts of Kōtō, which is represented near our neighborhood in Kōtō and led by Shunichi Ōikawa. This braveheart group had been more focused in prospering their community through their hearts as they want to live up with their dreams by giving everyone some thrills that they have been made. They’re very confident and charismatic to shine themselves, even they’re pushing themselves to make their community ready to drive for change as they’re ready to create their future through their auras. Now, when these three groups have met with each other, they started to cherish themselves, so that they’ll be able to make big moments to make themselves thrilled with smiles and joys galore. It had happened during the formation party where they have gotten along with each other, so that they’ll be able to start their own dream to bloom their communities like they’re ready to shine. Me and my fellow club members from NijiGaku have attended that event, so that we want to witness those because it’s their big day to start their dream and hopefully, they’ll be ready to gleam and shine for everyone to have blessings in their hearts. It’s so nice that the three braveheart groups have gotten along with each other in a special party because they have been very determined to develop their friendship like it’s more of a special connection because they have formed on the same day, March 22, and it’ll be amazing that they’re ready to build their own hopes and dreams to make their community growing with those to shine. I hope that you have learned about them since they’re very special because they can whatever they want to make yourself comfortable and I’m sure that they’ll be here to cheer for you with a smile. As for me, I’m always thrilled to see them showing their smiles with each other and hopefully, they’ll continue to show themselves with their pride and willpower that they’ll never miss, so that they’ll cherish themselves like they used to. It’ll be amazing that you’ll always be thrilled to be with me and my friends from the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club to make sure that you’re here to start your dream with us! Until then, I’ll see you next time when we’ll meet again and always remember that you should smile with joy and thrill, everyone!
- Yu Takasaki (CV. Hinaki Yano)

At the entrance of the hall in the mansion of the Misawa Resort Hotel, Amane Kawada, Ami Kawada, Miyaka Tokita, Ryōma Tokita, Kaoru Iwata, Shōtarō Iwata and Sachio Yamakawa are registering their names at the guest list while being joined by their friends. Their friends are composed of Miyoshi Akao, Masahisa Fujisawa, Keita Kumazaki, Chidori Nishijima, Seiko Ozaki, Manabu Kawamura, Tomomi Saeki and Fumiya Yano and they have formed their own group known as the Nishina Red Katana.

“Here you go!” said Miyaka Tokita, a third year middle school student from the Nishina Middle School and the cousin of Satsuki Kakizono.

“We listed our names in the guest list!” said Amane Kawada, a first year high school student from the Nashiba High School and the cousin of Aoi Ogiyama.

“Now, we can attend the great banquet!” said Ami Kawada, a second year middle school student from the Nishina High School and the cousin of Aoi Ogiyama. She’s also the younger sister of Amane Kawada.

“Thank you! Please, enjoy your stay at the hall while celebrating the development of the friendship between the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka!” said Yūki Iwamura.

“Okay!” said Amane Kawada, Ami Kawada, Miyaka Tokita, Ryōma Tokita, Kaoru Iwata, Shōtarō Iwata and Sachio Yamakawa while the members of the Nishina Red Katana give Yūki a smile on their faces without saying a word. Amane and Ami are the cousins of Aoi, Miyaka and Ryōma are the cousins of Satsuki while Kaoru, Shōtarō and Sachio are the cousins of Tae.

“Wow!” said Miyaka.

“It’s so cool!” said Ryōma Tokita, a first year middle school student from the Nishina Middle School and the cousin of Satsuki Kakizono. He’s also the brother of Miyaka Tokita.

“Now, we can stay here for the rest of the night, so that we’re going to have some thrills to witness!” said Amane.

“It will be amazing that you’re here, so that you’ll be able to make our cousins proud!” said Ami.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“Hey, isn’t that the sister of Satsuki, Miyaka?” asked Miyoshi Akao, a third year middle school student from the Nishina Middle School and a member of the Nishina Red Katana.

“I guess so” said Miyaka.

“It has to be her” said Amane.

“She’s with her friends” said Ami.

“Maybe, we should call her” said Masahisa Fujisawa, a third year middle school student from the Nishina Middle School and a member of the Nishina Red Katana.

“Sure!” said Miyaka with a smile on her face while Amane and Ami nod their heads without saying their words.

Miyoshi and Masahisa would shout together in unison. “Yasue-chan!”

Yasue was chatting with Rumi and Yuiko Ōsaka, the cousins of Shizuku Ōsaka, a member of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, in their own table before looking at Miyaka, Miyoshi and Masahisa. “Hey, my cousin is here!”

“I think that we should meet her, Yasue-san” said Yuiko.

“Yeah, good idea!” said Yasue.

“Let’s greet them!” said Rumi.

“Okay!” said Yuiko as she alongside her sister Yuiko and Yasue to approach Miyaka, Ryōma, Kaoru, Shōtarō, Sachio and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“Hey, there you are, guys! It’s so nice that you’re all here for the gathering and you’ll be thrilled that you’re not gonna miss this night!” said Yasue.

“Yeah!” said Amane, Ami, Miyaka, Ryōma, Kaoru, Shōtarō, Sachio and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“We’re looking forward to visit your cousin Satsuki” said Miyaka.

“Who is our cousin from her maternal side” said Ryōma. Satsuki and Yasue’s mother Ayako Tokita is the sister of Haruhisa Tokita, the father of Miyaka and Ryōma Tokita.

“Well, I would be glad to get you into my sister because she is with her friends from the Luminous Camellia” said Yasue.

“We would be delighted to accompany you to her if you want” said Rumi Ōsaka, a second year high school student from the Nashiba High School and the leader of the Violet Flower. She’s also the cousin of Shizuku Ōsaka, a member of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, and the older sister of Yuiko Ōsaka.

“Onēchan!” shouted Yasue.

“Oh, Yasue! Why are you here?” surprisingly queried Satsuki.

“We want to accompany our cousins Miyaka and Ryōma to you and your friends out there because they want to get along with you for a while” said Yasue.

“It will be amazing that you guys will be able to make a great conversation about what to for tomorrow” said Rumi.

“Because tomorrow will be the last day of the Fuchsia and Celadon Week” said Yuiko.

“Okay, that’s good! You see, we have brought some ideas about what to do for tomorrow” said Satsuki.

“Especially that we will be planning to watch the matches of the Ōta Blue Wind Cup in the outdoor basketball courts and the Recreational Center” said Tae.

“We should be ready for those because we’re greatly motivated to make the Fuchsia and Celadon Week even bloomer and harmonious” said Kazunari.

“As we will be closing out this festivity tomorrow night at the beachfront” said Banri.

“It will be very interesting to join with us if you want to make your ideas out there” said Chieri.

“So that, you will be able to get contributed in making this festivity more beautiful and prosperous for sure!” said Shizuka.

“Okay, sure!” said Amane, Ami, Miyaka, Ryōma, Kaoru, Shōtarō, Sachio and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“We’ll also be joining with you as well because we also have some bright ideas to take up with!” said Yasue.

“That would be for the big feast where we will have to bring our own foods to eat” said Rumi.

“Which will take place concurrently with the Night from the Fireside Show” said Yuiko.

“Well, be my guests, girls!” said Satsuki.

“You can join with us because you should be more thrilling to have those!” said Tae.

“Okay!” said Yasue, Rumi and Yuiko.

“By the way, is Aoi gonna be here with us?” asked Amane.

“We want to know if she’s with you guys” said Ami.

“Well, as you can see, Aoi won’t be getting along with us for a while because she’s very busy with Subaru and the other members of the Bravehearts of Ōta as they’re having some brainstorming for their plans with the Bravehearts of Fukuoka” said Kazunari.

“Which means that you have to wait for her to finish that before she’ll be having a free time with you” said Banri.

“Oh, that’s a shame” said Amane.

“I’m supposed that she’ll be joining with you, but she went on a different table though” said Ami.

“But you can meet her later on if you want to” said Satsuki.

“Yeah! She’ll be happy to see you that you’re here to celebrate the development of the friendship of the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka” said Tae.

“You can do anything to make her comfortable because she’s your cousins. Right?” said Yasue.

“Yeah!” said Amane and Ami.

“Now, let’s have some big conversation to make it shine!” said Kazunari and Banri.

“Yeah!” said Yasue, Rumi, Yuiko and the members of the Luminous Camellia, Team Uehara-Hirokawa and the Nishina Red Katana.

The conversation would begin as they’re going to talk about the anticipating match between the Hasegawa Star and the Ōta Future All-Stars.

“Now, to start things off, earlier, we have discussed about what’s going on in the Ōta Blue Wind Cup, which it’s now down to just 8 teams remaining” said Kazunari.

“So, we explained about what the pre-season would be like and how it had been developed for their season that will start by next month” said Banri.

“Ah, that’s very interesting, guys! We didn’t watch those games though because we’re very busy on our own priorities, but we were fascinated that we saw some of the best players when they’re gathering together during the opening ceremony” said Miyaka.

“They have shown their determination to make sure that they will do their best in shining their way in the court” said Ryōma.

“These guys from Kyushu are considered the strongest compared to the other guys from around the country” said Kaoru.

“And they will do whatever it takes to take up through the skies and show that they’re running it over” said Shōtarō.

“Hopefully, most of them are taking anyone on notice because they’re here to engage themselves in proving who’s the best in the country” said Sachio.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Kazunari and Banri.

“We also discussed about Kazuhiro Hatakenaka” said Kazunari.

“Who is said to be the #1 prospect in his class, despite he’s just 16 years old” said Banri.

“Everyone called him ‘The Blue Phenomenal’ due to his all-around plays that run his own show without hesitation” said Satsuki.

“We saw him earlier when he and his team have taken on Team Hiyama of Tosu, which they have won the game in a blowout” said Tae.

“That Kazuhiro is so unstoppable that he can do a lot of moments to rally for victory for his team” said Ayame.

“Well, I was very surprised when we saw him earlier with Subaru and the other guys and he’s such a great guy who had been able to prove to the others that he’s the alpha dog” said Yasue.

“And he’s looking determined to show that he’s taking care of everything for his team to dominate” said Rumi.

“We never heard about him before, but until he had led his middle school team, the Kashii Gakuen Middle School boys’ basketball team, to a Middle School National Basketball Championship two years ago” said Yuiko.

“Yeah, you’re right about that! Kazuhiro had been phenomenal with his own aura when he stepped up into the court as he had been an amazing player through his dazzling skills and stupendous attributes” said Satsuki.

“Especially when he had posterized some aggressive guys, which is very nasty to do it” said Tae.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Yasue, Rumi and Yuiko.

“That’s why people said that Kazuhiro should be ready to enter professional if he had the desire to play with his own aura because he’s very strong and he had to make sure that he will not let everyone down” said Chieri.

“Right now, he’s aiming to get his attention to the media about trying to improve for his team because he’s more consistent in taking care of the court many times” said Shizuka.

“The more that he had worked hard in rallying for victory, the better that his reputation will be going up” said Hayu.

“Even he’s just 16 years old, he had already developed his career to the next level, making sure that he can do anything to get balling” said Miyu Yoshikawa.

“Also, he’s very expressive to anyone on his side whether he will accept them as rivals or not” said Kotaro.

“Hopefully, he will continue to get transitioned of becoming the best player in the draft class until he’ll graduate in two years” said Fumiaki.

“I never saw a person like him who’s considered phenomenal due to his potential being higher as well as his special moves being off the charts” said Amane.

“I have to say that this guy will be ready to shine his way with his own aura, so that he’ll do whatever it takes to make his moment blooming and harmonious” said Ami.

“Yeah! I’m so excited about him, guys, because Kazuhiro had been very determined in showing his compassion to anyone on his side whether he had faced a challenge from his rivals” said Miyaka.

“He’s definitely a wonder boy who wanted to live up his dream of becoming an NBA player and he’s looking forward to shine his way” said Ryōma.

“We never seen a guy coming from Kyushu whose potential is very strong, but I’m so surprised that he was indeed a phenomenal player” said Kaoru.

“Everyone will believe in him because he has the confidence to show to them that he’s a great prospect without a doubt” said Shōtarō.

“Hopefully, he will be getting a lot of achievements, especially the milestones, which are very important” said Sachio.

“Yes, he will. Kazuhiro told me that he had his own destiny to make it happen if he’s consistent enough to take everyone on notice” said Kazunari.

“He had his own aura to create his own moment and that one will make him very strong” said Banri.

“Sometimes, your promises will be broken, but at the end of the day, you will fulfill it with your hearts” said Ayame.

“Yeah!” said Amane, Ami, Miyaka, Ryōma, Kaoru, Shōtarō and Sachio.

“Speaking of which, guys, there are some news said that Taiga Kagami had just enrolled to a preparatory school in Los Angeles” said Miyoshi.

“Whoa! No way!” said the members of the Camellia and Team Uehara-Hirokawa.

“Are you serious?!” shouted Kazunari.

“I can’t believe it!” exclaimed Banri.

“That’s very interesting!” reacted Satsuki.

“Is it true?” added Tae.

“Yes, of course!” said Miyoshi. “According to the news from NHK, Taiga had just planned to play for a preparatory school in Los Angeles this coming fall once he’s done finishing his year in his current school.”

“He said that he wanted to play against the elites if he wants to make it to the NBA because he had been dazzling to show that he can do it” said Masahisa.

“Being an NBA player is his dream because he wanted to battle against the best of the best in that league, so that he will be able to beat them with his own aura” said Keita Kumazaki, a first year middle school student from the Nishina Middle School and a member of the Nishina Red Katana.

“There a few Japanese basketball players have played college in the States, but Taiga expressed that he wanted to go pro without needing a college team to play with” said Chidori Nishijima, a second year high school student from the Nashiba High School and a member of the Nishina Red Katana.

“As of now, he’s considered a four-star player, according to the scouting sites, and it is expected to enter to the NBA in two years” said Seiko Ozaki, a third year middle school student from the Nishina Middle School and a member of the Nishina Red Katana.

“We’re very surprised about that news because Taiga had been a phenomenal player that he wanted to shine with his own statement” said Manabu Kawamura, a third year middle school student from the Nishina Middle School and a member of the Red Katana.

“Taiga had formerly played in the Seirin High School alongside Tetsuya Kuroko, who is now the captain of the team, and led that team to a Winter Cup title two years ago before leaving during the summer last year to play in the States” said Tomomi Saeki, a first year high school student from the Nashiba High School and a member of the Nishina Red Katana.

“Hopefully, we will watch out for him in the States because he will do whatever it takes to make everyone on notice with his relentless plays” said Fumiya Yano, a first year high school student from the Nashiba High School and a member of the Nishina Red Katana.

“That’s very interesting news out there! This one may be something that a potential superstar can make it to the NBA” said Chieri.

“I’m so excited about him! It looks like he’s about to go transition of becoming a professional basketball player one day” said Shizuka.

“I’m very grateful for that news because we could possibly witness one of our players that will about to create his future” said Hayu.

“He’s definitely gonna be one of the rising stars that will represent Japan once he’s now entering the NBA at any time” said Miho Yoshikawa.

“I’m very fascinated to see him shining with his own aura and he’s not looking back again once he’s on fire” said Kotaro.

“He may be aggressive, but he’s going to become a wonder boy to make it to the NBA very soon” said Fumiaki.

“Yes, indeed! That’s why we looked at that news earlier while we’re having a dinner earlier at the Golden Sun Restaurant” said Miyoshi.

“Taiga was said to be a prospect who had grown up in Los Angeles during his early life before moving back to Tokyo for his transfer to Seirin” said Masahisa.

“The main reason why he returned to the States last year is because he wanted to pursue his career in the NBA” said Keita.

“Which results to Seirin accepting the paper of transfer for Taiga, thus potentially costing their chances of repeating as Winter Cup Champions” said Chidori.

“But they have never gave up as Seirin had retained the title without Taiga, thanks to their late changes in their roster” said Seiko.

“Such as Toshikazu Hojō, Hayato Tokugawa, Kyōsuke Makimoto, Junya Miki and Satoshi Yamamoto” said Manabu.

“This year, they have lost the services of Junpei Hyūga, Shun Izuki, Rinnosuke Mitobe, Shinji Koganei and Satoshi Tsuchida, who were all graduated last year” said Tomomi.

“However, they finally got new guns such as Kōhei Akatsuki, Hiroshi Ushijima, Genji Nishimoto and Yūki Ōikawa” said Fumiya.

“Seirin had been considered the underdogs despite that they have formed that club two years ago, which that school had also been opened at that time” said Amane.

“But they’ll never give up, thanks to the principles of confidence and heart by their manager Riko Aida” said Ami.

“The media is expecting for them to make it to the Interhigh Nationals, despite they’re very young, so do speak” said Miyaka.

“They could potentially not make it if they’re not ready to work together yet” said Ryōma.

“That’s why their new manager Chisato Takiguchi said that her boys will do their best in making it to that tournament as soon as they should synchronize themselves for sure” said Kaoru.

“Hopefully, we will watch out for Seirin as well because they’re very different with their new players through their scouting, but of course, you never know what they’ll be planning” said Shōtarō.

“They’re the sleepers of Tokyo ever since they have won the Winter Cup two years and then, retained it last winter” said Sachio.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Luminous Camellia and Team Uehara-Hirokawa.

“It’s so great that Seirin had been a dominant high school basketball team ever since they have done the unimaginable two years ago” said Kazunari.

“They’re very productive when they’re running in transition, so that they will rally their way to victory” said Banri.

“Everyone knows that Seirin had been a young team, but they have been able to prove themselves that they can do whatever it takes to shine themselves” said Satsuki.

“They have always taken everyone on notice and they’re so unstoppable to make themselves stronger without their star” said Tae.

“It’s going to be great that they will continue to dominate themselves now that they were selected alongside some biggest names around the country to compete in a special high school basketball tournament instead of competing in the Interhigh Nationals” said Ayame.

“What do you mean by that?” asked Miyaka.

“Yeah, I’m very curious about this” said Ryōma.

“Some of the biggest names wanted to compete in a special high school basketball tournament that is exclusively available for the preparatory schools, which is why the association had decided to split those from the Interhigh and Winter Cup proper, so that they will be able to form their own tournaments that would be more prestigious to watch” said Kazunari.

“Which means that this will be different for them to make them competing in another level rather than competing against most public and private schools in the country, so that everything will be fair to have separate champions rather than just one” said Banri.

“As a result, that special high school basketball tournament will be much different to the other tournaments because this will make the media more interesting to watch on those, but it will be on another level” said Satsuki.

“Which means that they can finally make progress in making many champions this season, so that they will be able to get recognized for sure” said Tae.

“Oh, I understand about that. I can’t believe that it’s going to be bizarre to have many champions this year because everyone thought that those prestigious schools are so strong and they don’t want to be no part of it” said Miyaka.

“The prestigious schools can have their own potential to produce, so that they will be able to get into them into the biggest universities in the country” said Ryōma.

“Yeah, they will!” said the members of the Luminous Camellia and Team Uehara-Hirokawa.

“Of course, speaking of something prestigious, we’re going to talk about the anticipated exhibition match between the Hasegawa Star and the Ōta Future All-Stars” said Kazunari.

“Which will take place 12 noon at the Recreational Center” said Banri.

“Oh, this will be very interesting!” said Miyoshi.

“I’m very excited about this!” said Masahisa.

“This one would be good to see if our prospects will shine their way this year” said Keita.

“They’re looking forward to run their place against the father of Subaru Hasegawa and his own team” said Chidori.

“Yep! The Ōta Future All-Stars is composed of the best players in Ōta, based on the scouting reports from different trainers and scouts all over this place” said Kazunari.

“They have fielded the best players of our hometown every year and they’re competing against other best players in an exhibition tournament known as the Tokyo Futures Cup, which it takes place every summer” said Banri.

“Last year, most players that are allegedly being revealed as members of the Dragons of Ōta have withdrawn their names in the preliminary roster after what happened last year when Shin Mizusaki had assaulted Tsubasa Sugimoto” said Satsuki.

“However, they have been able to survive the group stage when they won the last match as they have advanced to the quarterfinals, but they would lose to the Minato Future All-Stars in a blowout, 61-118” said Tae.

“But this year, things have been changed when they have revealed their roster, composed of Masanori Takeshita, Kazunori Shigematsu, Hideki Sudō, Shō Tatsuta, Toshiki Anabuki and Noboru Takeuchi, who is also the leader of the Dragons of Ōta” said Ayame.

“Subaru was initially invited to the roster, but he respectfully declined the offer due to personal reasons” said Aoba.

“Which in reality, he’s not interested to play with them because his team Nashiba had been suspended last year” said Misaki.

“Oh, too bad for him. I supposed that he would accept that offer, but he decided not to do though” said Amane.

“He doesn’t want to play with them yet because he hadn’t played a single high school game in a major competition” said Ami.

“He would have shined his way if he accepted that offer in the first place” said Miyaka.

“But of course, Nashiba didn’t enter to the Interhigh prefectural competition last year due to the incident between Shin Mizusaki and Tsubasa Sugimoto earlier at the start of last school year” said Ryōma.

“It will be very weird if he would have accepted that spot, but he had his own decision to make” said Kaoru.

“So, it’s a good decision for him to focus on his own challenges” said Shōtarō.

“Especially that his team will have a long training to make” said Sachio.

“Yeah, that’s true. Subaru told me that he wanted to build his own team that is much different than the Ōta Future All-Stars if he had the desire to do it, but he’s not ready for that yet” said Kazunari.

“He believed that he wanted to put up his own roster that will represent not only for us, but for his father’s former home in Fukuoka” said Banri.

“That’s why we were surprised when we saw Kazuhiro and the other leaders of the braveheart groups in Fukuoka” said Satsuki.

“They have been very strong that they want to shine for themselves” said Tae.

“Of course, Subaru is more of a phenomenal if he matched his potential with Kazuhiro and his friends” said Ayame.

“Everyone knows that Subaru is the Braveheart Sensation” said Aoba.

“Because he had his own aura to take care of through his eyes” said Misaki.

“He’s not giving up no matter what as he’s aiming to be a sensational player for everyone on his side” said Chieri.

“That’s why he will be always determined to make the difference for himself” said Shizuka.

“Yeah!” said Yasue, Rumi, Yuiko and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“I’m very uplifted that Subaru can make his own statement if he wanted to form his own team” said Yasue.

“I have to say that he will possibly have a chance to make his own team with his desire because he’s very confident that he will have his own legion to run with” said Rumi.

“Hopefully, he will make sure that he will run with them through their auras” said Yuiko.

“Yes, he would. Subaru said that he had his own connection of friends not only from our hometown, but in Fukuoka as well” said Satsuki.

“Which means that he had the power to create his own team without hesitation because he had to make sure that his team will be running with their blessings” said Tae.

“Oh, yes! I would love to see that, onēchan!” said Yasue.

“It will be amazing that he can have that, so that they will run together in the court” said Rumi.

“They will make sure that they will have a great team chemistry to make” said Yuiko.

“Yeah, we hope so, but we’ll see about that” said Satsuki.

“He will be ready to start something new to show that he’s the Braveheart Sensation” said Tae.

“Yeah!” said Yasue, Rumi and Yuiko.

“Kazunari, if the Ōta Future All-Stars will plan to offer Subaru a spot for next year, do you think that he will accept it?” asked Amane.

“Well, to be honest, I’m not sure if he can do it though because he’s very different to the other best players in Ōta” said Kazunari.

“Which is why he had been very good in making decisions and building his own teams to make sure that it’ll be formidable and strong to represent” said Banri.

“And remember that since he was influenced by other braveheart leaders, he’s already doing something different that he used to, compared to how he did when he was formerly part of the Dragons of Ōta” said Satsuki.

“He might end up teaming up with different braveheart leaders from our neighboring areas such as Setagaya, Meguro and Shinagawa” said Tae.

“That one may be possible if he had a great friendship with them, but it’s going to be a challenge for him because he had met with them before last year” said Yasue.

“So, it’s going to be different to see a formidable and strong braveheart team if things would work out for Subaru and his fellow allies where everyone had agreed to that idea” said Rumi.

“Which means that they’ll be ready to create their own teamwork to show their prowess and strength to make sure that they’re dominating the game for themselves” said Yuiko.

“This could be promising, guys! I’ll be expecting for Subaru to have that as he’s ready to prove the ground to make sure that his team will be taking over the court” said Amane.

“Hopefully, this will be more amazing to see them shining together as soon as they’re ready to build their momentum to shine for sure!” said Ami.

“Yeah!” said Kazunari, Banri, Satsuki, Tae, Yasue, Rumi and Yuiko.

“If I remember correctly, Hideki Sudō and Shō Tatsuta were formerly part of the Nashiba High School boys’ basketball team. Isn’t that right, Ayame?” said Miyaka.

“Yes, they were. They alongside Akinori Matsuzawa have used to run together two years ago when they have reached the fourth round of the Interhigh prefectural tournament” said Ayame.

“It was the best result so far a high school basketball team that doesn’t have any member of the Dragons of Ōta” said Aoba.

“But they have members that are coming from the Ōta Luminous Plum” said Misaki.

“The Ōta Luminous Plum was very responsible in running their own group, especially that they have picked their members to be part of any team that had been competed for a competition” said Marina.

“That group would end up merging with the Pink and Plum, thus the former had been disbanded while the latter had started to expand of their own” said Chinami.

“The legacy of the Undeniable Boys, composed of Hideki, Shō and Akinori, would never be forgotten after achieving themselves for the first time after more than 20 years” said Kaori.

“But hopefully, Subaru and his friends will hopefully gonna bring back Nashiba by running together to make sure that they will never give up no matter what” said Miho Taneda.

“As soon as they will have their blessings through their auras” said Haruka.

“Wow! I’m surprised that those two have been able to make Nashina more of being the underdogs two years ago” said Miyaka.

“They have found their own synchronization to run themselves because they want to rally their way to victory” said Ryōma.

“I like the way they did when I watched them where I was very delighted to see how both Hideki and Shō have done something big” said Kaoru.

“Nashiba would have been dominant if they would have progressed all the way to the final four, but I guess that this is just the beginning of their own run if that school wouldn’t be suspended in the first place” said Shōtarō.

“It will be fantastic to see a team like Nashiba can very unimaginable moments that shock the Japanese high school basketball community in Tokyo” said Sachio.

“Yeah, you’re right about that, guys! However, unlike some schools that have bravehearts, Nashiba had been less popular by any means when it comes to sports, however, they have been able to produce athletes from soccer and volleyball” said Ayame.

“In basketball, they haven’t been progressed in the first years, but they started to make changes by the time their boys’ basketball team had notched their first victory in the Interhigh prefectural tournament in 1999” said Aoba.

“Since then, the Nashiba High School boys’ basketball team started to produce good players before Subaru entered that group, but they haven’t found something big until two years ago” said Misaki.

“Their luck had been shattered last year when the school had to suspend that program for a year due to Shin Mizusaki’s incident, which is why everyone had been worried about their future and so, this brings major changes when some of their players have agreed to play in Keishin for a year before the suspension was finally lifted earlier last month” said Marina.

“Hopefully, we will see something more shocking if Nashiba can able to get past the fourth round this year, thanks to their new players that they have, which means that they’re ready to be on the move. Isn’t that right, guys?” said Chinami.

“Yeah!” said Amane, Ami, Miyaka, Ryōma, Kaoru, Shōtarō, Sachio and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“That team had been resilient and formidable in the recent years, but they haven’t done that before because they ended up getting around at least to the fourth round” said Amane.

“However, it’ll be changed since Subaru, Kazunari and Banri, have taken over your team to make sure that you’re here to run the place like they have used to before in Kasuragi and Kirihara” said Ami.

“I’m sure that they’ll be ready to do whatever it takes to make the statement for themselves” said Miyaka.

“They don’t want to give up right now because they’re currently getting on win now mode” said Ryōma.

“Nashiba should have been stronger if they’re not suspended, but I hope that there will be a miracle that may happen at any time” said Kaoru.

“Everything will be changed once they’re stepping in through the court and show that they’re here to take everyone on notice” said Shōtarō.

“When they’re here to shine, they’ll prove themselves that they’re formidable and unstoppable for sure!” said Sachio.

“You got that right, guys!” said Ayame, Aoba and Misaki.

“What about the Hasegawa Star? Can you explain it to us?” asked Miyoshi.

“The Hasegawa Star is an all-star team that is led by the father of Subaru Hasegawa, Ginga Hasegawa” said Chieri.

“He’s formerly a basketball player that played in the prefectural and regional leagues for more than 10 years” said Shizuka.

“He had been friends with his former teammates that had gotten along with in the past and now, he finally decided to form his own team to reunite themselves for just one game” said Hayu.

“They also brought two former teammates of Subaru that are coming from Fukuoka in Masahiko Ōshima and Kyōsuke Yaginuma” said Miho Yoshikawa.

“They have been great players that helped the Ōta Brave Thunder to win their title on the final year of Ginga’s career” said Shiho.

“Despite that they’re sucked at defense, they have been able to lean on shooting from the three-point line without losing their energy” said Ruka.

“It’s like that they have been lighting out all the way” said Kotaro.

“So, they have looked like a young team in the past, but this will make themselves more of a friendly team since Ginga had been leading two former teams in his career” said Fumiaki.

“Hopefully, you will be thrilled to see him in the court again” said Yoshimasa.

“Yeah!” said Yasue, Rumi, Yuiko and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“I’ll be surprised that he’s gonna show his moves that he had used to in the past because he wants to play like he’s a young guy again” said Yasue.

“It’s so nice that Ginga had been a great player that he didn’t able to live up his expectations to the top leagues” said Rumi.

“But he had been able to groom his career to win two titles” said Yuiko.

“He’s very talented and strong when he was on his prime where he had shined his way to lead his teams to dominance during his career” said Amane.

“But as years go by, he’s getting different when he was over the peak, but he had already taught some young guys to do what he did, so that they’ll inspire him at all” said Ami.

“I have to say that his team will be ready to get on the move, so that they will show to us that they’re here to run the place” said Miyaka.

“It’s so amazing that he’s finally get ready to go back to the court for the first since his retirement as he’s ready to show how it’s done for all of us” said Ryōma.

“He’s ready to pass the torch to the young guns in our hometown, so that they will be able to inspire him” said Kaoru.

“I will be surprised if he’s going to shock Noboru with his moves that might be nasty, but you never know that he’s a good playmaker” said Shōtarō.

“He had the eyes of his own style to perform and it will be amazing that he’s gonna be looked good again” said Sachio.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Luminous Camellia and Team Uehara-Hirokawa.

“It will very exciting to see what that match would be like for tomorrow because you’re all ready to witness all players from both teams facing off against each other in the court” said Kazunari.

“This may be the ‘passing of the torch’ match because it’s about time for the young bloods in our hometown to step up with their auras to see if they’re proving themselves good” said Banri.

“With Ginga ready to come out of retirement for just one exhibition game, this will be more of a homecoming match for him because he’s born in Ōta” said Satsuki.

“And he’s very recognized as a great player and leader” said Tae.

“Hopefully, you’re all prepared for this, guys!” said Ayame.

“Yeah!” said Yasue, Rumi, Yuiko and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“Now, the fun part for tomorrow will be the big feast, which will take place at the garden” said Kazunari.

“We have planned some ideas on what to do with that event where we will be bringing some foods and drinks, so that we will be able to eat while enjoying the culminating event” said Banri.

“So far, we already have listed some foods and drinks that we need to bring with me and Tae bringing some chicken soup” said Satsuki.

“Kazunari and Banri will be bringing some torikatsu with special sauce” said Tae.

“While me, Aoba and Misaki will be planning to bring some sushi to make it even interesting for all of us to eat” said Ayame.

“For the five of us, we will be planning to bring some rice balls” said Marina.

“Which will be plenty to cook this up” said Chinami.

“While on the other hand, me and Shizuka will be ready to bring some teriyaki with some special sauces that we made from our school festival last year” said Chieri.

“The special sauces that we made are special to our group” said Shizuka.

“The rest of us will be planning to bring some yakitori, tonkatsu and Ebi tempura” said Hayu.

“I’m also volunteering to bring some fried rice for everyone as well” said Miho Yoshikawa.

“What about you, guys?” asked Kazunari.

“What are you planning to bring for tomorrow’s big feast?” added Banri.

“Well, for the seven of us, we want to bring some katsudon and tendon because those are our favorites” said Miyaka.

“Me and Miyaka were interested in those since our parents have cooked that for dinner” said Ryōma.

“Same goes to us because we always used to eat those during the break” said Amane.

“Yeah, it’s so delicious when you take a bite on those!” said Ami.

“I’m always craving for those foods and so, why not we will bring them and share to everyone? It’s going to be fantastic that we will bring those for the big feast” said Kaoru.

“Yeah, we’re very interested in Japanese foods that are so good to eat and we’ll be lucky if we can bring them for all of us to eat” said Shōtarō.

“Hopefully, we will be able to make everyone feeling delighted to share with our foods once we will bring there, so that they will be able to enjoy eating while celebrating the final day of the Fuchsia and Celadon Week” said Sachio.

“That’s very interesting, guys! I’m very surprised that you want to bring some katsudon and tendon to the big feast because we liked that too!” said Satsuki.

“We loved to eat those when we’re all gathered together last year. So, it will be amazing that you will have those for us to share” said Tae.

“Yes, we are!” said Amane, Ami, Miyaka, Ryōma, Kaoru, Shōtarō and Sachio.

“Hey, I will be in charge for the desserts like anpan and melonpan, onēchan!” said Yasue.

“The two of us will be bringing some okonomiyaki” said Rumi.

“It’s so good and delicious!” said Yuiko.

“Those foods are good to bring, guys! I’m liking that!” said Kazunari.

“It looks like you guys have picked the right foods to choose” said Banri.

“That makes us more craved to eat those” said Ayame.

“It’s so awesome that you will be planning to bring those for tomorrow and hopefully, you will be able to have them for you to share with us” said Aoba.

“The more that you will bring foods out there, the better that we will make this big feast even better with many foods that we can eat” said Misaki.

“Yeah!” said Yasue, Rumi, Yuiko and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“It’s going to be great that we will bring those into the big feast, so that we will all be blessed and inspire to eat those” said Miyaka.

“The big feast will be an event that we should not miss because this is the part where everyone will be ready to eat the dinner together” said Ryōma.

“We will be very delighted that we will have a great feast to create with as we will always share some smiles to joys with each other” said Kaoru.

“We should also take some big moments to shine while we’re having that because this is what we do to enjoy this event” said Shōtarō.

“As we’ll prosper together like the way we used to!” said Sachio.

“It’s a great opportunity for all of us to get involved for this big event because this is where we will all share together with some foods that we will bring” said Yasue.

“As these will be the symbol of joy and prosperity to make us feel good” said Rumi.

“It’s going to be a great night for all of us once we’re all set to eat some dinner for the great feast and hopefully, we’ll all be blessed and inspired for sure!” said Yuiko.

“Yeah, you got it!” said Kazunari, Banri, Satsuki and Tae.

“Also, one that I have to remind you is that after the culminating event, we will end the Fuchsia and Celadon Week with some fireworks display through the sky” said Kazunari.

“This one will be more blooming and sparkling because this will finally kick off the Era of Fuchsia and Celadon” said Banri.

“Where everyone is ready to bloom and shine with their auras, so that they will be able to bless and inspire their community” said Satsuki.

“By representing our hometown through our hearts” said Tae.

“It’s so nice that we have done a lot of moments in the Fuchsia and Celadon Week since we have contributed together from the start and hopefully, tomorrow will be the time to close it out and make it more magical” said Ayame.

“Hopefully, you will be ready to get yourself blessed and inspired once the fireworks display will take place” said Chieri.

“And this is the part where the friendship flame will be extinguished to symbolize the end of the Fuchsia and Celadon Week” said Shizuka.

“So, are you ready for this, everyone?” asked Kazunari.

“Yes, we are!” said Yasue, Rumi, Yuiko and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“I’m so excited about the fact that the Fuchsia and Celadon Week will come to an end tomorrow!” said Amane.

“Me too! I believe that this will be blooming and harmonious to cap off this event as it’s about time to move on to a new era, which will be full of blessings and inspirations that they’ll show for everyone to shine themselves” said Ami.

“I’m very motivated about this because this is the part that we’re all gonna shine!” said Miyaka.

“We should be ready to start making new dreams once this new era starts” said Kaoru.

“It’s going to be fantastic that we will finally have our new era to make us feel good” said Sachio.

“Everyone in Ōta will be all set to show their auras and blessings that they will use, so that they will be here to represent our hometown” said Yasue.

“The dawning of a new era will not only the beginning of a new hope in Ōta, but it will also be the beginning of a new revolution for the community to get engaged in bringing hopes and dreams to everyone” said Rumi.

“We’ll be expecting for all of us to prepared ourselves to bless and inspire everyone with our blissful smiles and harmonious hearts” said Yuiko.

“Yes, indeed! It’s so nice that our hometown is ready to elevate into the next level with new hopes and dreams” said Satsuki.

“Our time is come for us to do whatever it takes to show our smiles to everyone, so that we will make big moments to cherish” said Tae.

“It will be amazing that we will show our blessings to everyone to make sure that they will not let us down because we’re all bravehearts” said Banri.

“And hopefully, we’ll be ready to create our future for ourselves” said Kazunari.

“Yeah, we will!” said Yasue, Rumi, Yuiko and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“It’s a great night for all of us to witness this event and we have so many things to enjoy after all that we have been fascinated to enjoy what we have for the great banquet” said Satsuki.

“Everything is harmonious to see as there are smiles and joys everywhere” said Tae.

“Hopefully, the night will never be forgotten to make our moment to bless and inspire because we’re all determined to be brave and bold enough…” said Banri.

“…and as always, we’re all here to run together…” said Kazunari before everyone would shout together in unison. “…as one family of bravehearts!”

“Is everyone feeling good?” asked Chieri.

“Yeah!” said Yasue, Rumi, Yuiko and the members of the Nishina Red Katana.

“That’s great! I’m loving it!” said Chieri.

“Looks like we’re all harmonious right now. Don’t you agree?” said Shizuka.

“Yeah!” said Kazunari, Banri, Satsuki and Tae.

“It’s going to be fantastic that we will keep showing our smiles and joys to everyone because we’re all blessed and inspired” said Satsuki.

“As soon as we will keep getting along with each other…” said Tae.

“…we will be more confident to make us motivated to create big moments and gracious thrills for everyone to smile” said Banri.

“So, let’s work together for all of us to bloom and shine as one family of bravehearts!” said Kazunari.

“Yeah!” said Yasue, Rumi, Yuiko and the members of the Luminous Camellia, Team Uehara-Hirokawa and the Nishina Red Katana. The roundtable conversation between the Luminous Camellia, Team Uehara-Hirokawa and the Nishina Red Katana became more beautiful with everyone had been talking about the upcoming activities for the last day of the Fuchsia and Celadon Week including the anticipating match between the Hasegawa Star and the Ōta Futures All-Stars. They have gathered together for a conversation to see what’s gleaming and exploring, which everyone had been fascinated for tomorrow as they will be ready to make the final day of the festivity even bloomer than ever.

UP NEXT: Profile of the Nishina Red Katana
 
After I have posted the profile of Team Uehara-Hirokawa, there are another set of new characters to appear in the Red Section Series as this time, it will be the Nishina Red Katana. So, here is the profile of the Nishina Red Katana, a group that is composed of the cousins of Aoi Ogiyama, Satsuki Kakizono and Tae Mishōji and their friends, led by Amane Kawada, the cousin of Aoi. They have gotten along with each other after their classes were over where they have used to stay together in the Kawada Residence, their main home that was owned by Amane and Ami’s father Kazumasa Kawada. Like Team Uehara-Hirokawa, they were associated to the Bravehearts of Ōta due to them being able to get involved in helping their cousins Aoi, Satsuki and Tae if they want to help their community to bless and inspire everyone. They were interested in music and fitness, which they have used to visit the Kashii Sports Gym every weekend to work out with Banri and Kaori. Its members include Ami Kawada (the cousin of Aoi and the younger sister of Amane Kawada), Miyaka and Ryōma Tokita (the cousins of Satsuki Kakizono), Kaoru and Shōtarō Iwata (the cousins of Tae Mishōji) and Sachio Yamakawa (the cousin of Tae Mishōji).

UP NEXT: Red Section-Chapter 95: “Best Friends, Better Allies for Ryuuichi and His Team of Renegades”

The cousins of Aoi, Satsuki and Tae have been very determined to show their respect to Satsuki and Tae as they have been delighted to get along with them whenever they’re going to help their community to make everyone growing with their blessings. They have been very determined to show their pride and willpower to make sure that they’ll be able to empower themselves to help their community to shine for a brighter future.;) Since they’re representing for Aoi, Satsuki and Tae, even though Aoi hadn’t appeared in today’s update, they’re very blessed and inspired to get along with the members of the Luminous Camellia alongside the members of Team Uehara-Hirokawa for the great banquet and so, they’ll be ready to empower themselves to shine their community for sure!:) Now, I made some changes before posting this update where the first one is I forgot to add the cousins of Aoi, who were composed of Amane and Ami Kawada, whose sporting their hairs red, which results to adding more lines in this update, so that I don’t want to miss them out.:D The other thing that I changed is that it was supposedly posted last November 24 (Wednesday), but I decided to adjust it to today, November 28 (Sunday), when I changed the schedule of the four updates where the supposed update that is focused on Kana Toriyama and her friends had moved to last November 21 (Sunday), which was the first anniversary of the airing of “Shizuku, Monochrome”, the eighth episode of the first season of Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. On the other hand, the update that was focused on the Bravehearts of Sapporo had been posted last November 17 (Sunday) while the previous update, which was focused on Chieri Uehara and Shizuka Hirokawa, had been posted four days ago. These changes have been made earlier this month before posting this update and I felt satisfied with the adjustments and so, I have to remind myself to think about the initial schedule before I can adjust it if there’s something important on the dates.;) Hopefully, I’ll have to think hard if I want to keep the series progressing after all.:) Now that the month of November will almost come to an end, there’s only one month left to finish the year 2021, which will be the month of December, and of course, the next update will be focused on Ryuuichi Suga and his friends as they’re finally back to Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts since their last appearance in Chapter 148 two years ago where they’ll be joined by their cousins as they’re celebrating their night at the great banquet in the Misawa Resort Hotel despite Ryuuichi is the rival of Subaru Hasegawa. I hope that you’re all excited to see them back after two years and so, get ready to witness all of those to show some pride and willpower with them!:) I’ll see you on December 1 (Wednesday) for the next update of Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts!

LATER TONIGHT: A Special Message from Ayumu Uehara

A Special Message from Ayumu Uehara

Hi, everyone! This is Ayumu Uehara of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I’m here to share about the Dream Pink and Aqua Group, the group that my cousins and Hinako Ōsaka, the cousin of Shizuku Ōsaka, lead while representing the Bravehearts of Minato. For those don’t know about this, you already remembered Red Section-Chapter 75 where me and Shizuku have talked about that group as it is one of the special circle groups that have been very close to the two of us and of course, they’re very prestigious and admire to cheer for everyone on their side including you. Now, I’ll be explaining about this special circle group, so that you’ll be able to remember them where they’ll be featured in a future update in the future. Anyway, the Dream Pink and Aqua Group was formed when my cousins Shinako Takanashi, Azusa Uehara and Maika Kayama and Shizuku’s cousin Hinako Ōsaka have gathered together to start their own friendship because they want to be like me and Shizuku, so that they’ll shine their way like we used to as members of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. It was formed during my birthday last March 1 (Monday) as Shinako said that she wanted to get along with Hinako, Azusa and Maika through different activities that are more fantastic and thrilled, but also, it’s one of the major events that happened right before the formation of the Bravehearts of Minato, which was held on March 22 (Monday). Shinako said that she wanted to improve her friendship with Hinako because not only they were teammates in Hanzōsen back in elementary school when they took part of that school’s girls’ basketball team, but she believed that Hinako had been very determined to make dreams with everyone just like she did to her friends on her side. Of course, both Shinako and Hinako have been childhood friends ever since they’re little and they have always gotten along with each other for most of the time before being joined by Azusa and Maika. As for Azusa and Maika, they’re charismatic to get along with Shinako whenever they have attended a family gathering, which they were also thrilled to join the Dream Pink and Aqua Group. Thus, the four started to get close with each other even after Azusa and Maika have joined the Bravehearts of Minato. This reminds me of me and Shizuku getting close with each other, especially that I invited Yu to come along with us for some school idol stuff, and it feels great that we have been working together with our smiles and thrills, so that we’re confident enough to maintain our friendship for sure. Aside from my cousins Azusa and Maika, they were more bravehearts joining the Dream Pink and Aqua Group such as Ruriko Hosoda, Yasue Ichikawa, Naoki Sunama, Kōsuke Higashide, Toshikazu Aramaki, Sae Sekine, Nanako Uekusa, Fuyumi Miyagawa, Akihisa Sōma and Shōhei Mizunuma. They were all living in Odaiba, Aomi and Toyosu and they have been determined to get along with Shinako and Hinako, so that they’ll be delighted to give them some thrill to fascinate and shine. Ruriko and Yasue are mostly associated to Shinako and Hinako due to them being part of the Hanzōsen Elementary School girls’ basketball team as they have worked together to rally themselves with their own aura to gleam and shine. It feels like they looked like our school idol club where we performed together to shine and make everyone being filled with smiles and thrills. Eventually, they’ll look forward to continue expanding themselves, so that they’ll continue to gleam and shine through their auras, so that they’ll continue their friendship like a flower ready to bloom and grow. I hope that you enjoyed reading this postscript message because it’ll be amazing that you’re going to make them feel thrilled with your smile, so that they’ll be compassionated to you as they’ll always be here to cheer for you. Speaking of the next connection circle, Kasumi Nakasu will be sharing about the connection circle of Yasue, which will be posted on December 1 (Wednesday), and so, you don’t want to miss this one when she’ll be sharing this because it’ll be amazing to see what Yasue’s connection circle would be like and how they have developed their friendship as close friends. Get ready to see this when you’ll return in three days to make sure that you’re just in time to know about Yasue’s connection circle! Until then, I’ll see you next time for another side chapter that will feature me and my fellow club members of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and keep making your dreams come true, everyone!
- Ayumu Uehara (CV. Aguri Ōnishi)
 
Hi, everyone!:) As we're about to end of the year 2021 with one more month, it's very harmonious that the series had continued to make progress although we still have six more side chapters to reach 100 side chapters in a volume, which will be a milestone that I'm about to reach as soon as this series will continue to run very well.;) Also, for those who didn't read the previous update, which is the follow-up update to Red Section-Chapter 93, which was focused on the Luminous Camellia (without Aoi) and the cousins of Subaru's friends, I recommended you to read this before or after today's update, so that it'll be amazing to get surprised on their conversation and it would have been awesome if Aoi was there, but she'll be returning in a few future updates to come.:) Now, the month of December will be a month of enthusiasm and compassion, but also a month of prosperity with 24 days left to go before Christmas and hopefully, you're all excited about this year's update because I'll be explaining the progress of it later on.:D For now, let's get into today's update to witness the return of Ryuuichi Suga and his friends, but before that, it's time to head into the birthday corner to see who's celebrating their birthdays right now!:) Today (December 1) is the birthday of Sora Kaneshiro from Angel’s 3Piece! and tomorrow (December 2) will be the double birthdays of Uori Mukae from Ongaku Shoujo and Mai Sakurajima from Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai. Sora is a calm and quiet girl and has a habit of saying ‘Hamu’. In addition to being calm without worrying about the turmoil around her, she sometimes takes unexpected actions, such as welcoming her naked to tell her that she is in the bath. She is characterized by accurate performance without blurring, and she is currently the best of the three. Born in Kamakura, Kanagawa, Uori is a member of Ongaku Shoujo and the sister of Kiri Mukae (CV: Sumire Uesaka). She is a talented idol who succeeded in the entertainment world and a tsundere. She’s a very good idol as she had been professional ever since she had started her career and she’s good at cooking. She’s unaware of her friend Hanako Yamadaki (CV: Seria Fukagawa), who used her nickname ‘Dolly’. And last but not the least, Mai is the protagonist of Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai and has a long black hair, usually has a rabbit-shaped hair club and hairpin in several places. She is a child actress and has been acclaimed for her acting ability at that time. Tired from the pressures of her acting work, Mai decides to take a hiatus but suddenly realizes people are unable to acknowledge her existence, except Sakuta Azusagawa (CV: Kaito Ishikawa), who agrees to help figure out what's happening, all while she continues to get closer to him. She first meets Sakuta at a library, while she was wearing a bunny girl outfit to test if people would notice her. As time passes, more people start forgetting about Mai's existence until Sakuta himself is left to remember. Sakuta is able to restore Mai's existence and everyone's memories of her when he declares his love to Mai in front of the entire school. After that, Sakuta and Mai attempt to start a relationship, which is made difficult given Mai's acting work. She has a half-sister Nodoka Toyohama (CV: Maaya Uchida), who is an idol and a member of Sweet Barrett. Sora is voiced by Aoi Koga, Uori is voiced by Yui Ogura and Mai is voiced by Asami Seto. Happy birthday, Sora, Uori and Mai!:) And before you’ll read this update, this one will be dedicated to Momoyo Koyama, Yui Nagae and Inor Minase. Momoyo and Yui have celebrated their birthdays yesterday (November 30) while Inori will be celebrating her birthday tomorrow (December 2). Born in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Momoyo is a voice actress and singer that was famously known as the voice actress of Karen Aijō, the protagonist of Revue Starlight and the leader of Starlight Kukugumi. She’s also the voice actress of Drama Department Manager from Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and Haruka Shima from Onsen Musume. Last year, she took a hiatus due to vocal cord surgery, but she would return to entertainment industry, continuing work for Revue Starlight and her agency Stardust Promotion. Coming out from Ehime, Yui is a voice actress and singer as she is a member of GuilDrops of Star Radio Records and the voice actress of Akino Kanzaka, the older sister of Haruna Kanzaka (CV: Yui Nakajima), from My Sister, My Writer. And last but not the least, hailing from Tokyo, Inori is a voice actress and singer as she had been amazing job in making progress of her career. She’s famously the voice actress of Chino Kafū from Is the Order a Rabbit, Rem (the twin sister of Ram (CV: Rie Murakawa)) from Re:Zero – Starting Life in Another World and Itsuki Nakano from The Quintessential Quintuplets. Hopefully, those three will continue making progress of their voice acting and music careers as they have dazzled their way to show their voice while performing themselves through compassion and desire.;) Belated happy birthday, Momoyo and Yui, and advanced happy birthday, Inori!:) Now, onto today’s update to kick off the month of December as the year 2021 will about to end with Christmas and New Year as we'll be witnessing the return of Ryuuichi Suga, Nana Yotsuya and Mayumi Odaka!:)

The next update that I’ll be posting for the Red Section Series will be witnessing the return of Ryuuichi Suga (the rival of Subaru Hasegawa), Nana Yotsuya (the cousin of Ryuuichi) and Mayumi Odaka as they are meeting with their relatives during the great banquet that celebrated the development of the friendship between the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka. This is the part where Ryuuichi will be sharing about his school life in the Itoda Jitsugyō High School (English: Itoda Business High School) including his time as a member of the Itoda Jitsugyō High School boys’ basketball team. Hopefully, you will be excited to see this because it will be great to see Ryuuichi sharing about his own story that you never seen it before as you will see some never-before-seen secrets of Ryuuichi that are not mentioned in Ro-Kyu-Bu! except that he had appeared in the second season, Ro-Kyu-Bu! SS. So, get ready to witness all of those with some pride and determination to bless with Ryuuichi and his allies because here comes the 95th side chapter of the Red Section Series with the title, “Best Friends, Better Allies for Ryuuichi and His Team of Renegades”! Enjoy reading the 95th side chapter of the Red Section Series!:)

SIDE STORY: “RED SECTION STORIES
CHAPTER 95: “BEST FRIENDS, BETTER ALLIES FOR RYUUICHI AND HIS TEAM OF RENEGADES

Date: May 7, 2010 (Friday)

This side story is focused on Ryuuichi Suga, Nana Yotsuya and Mayumi Odaka as they are getting along with their cousins while witnessing the great banquet that celebrated the development of the friendship between the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

Ryuuichi, Nana, Mayumi and their friends would be entering the hall at the mansion of the Misawa Resort Hotel where they would be attending the great banquet that celebrated the development of the friendship between the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka. They would be joined by their cousins, composed of Seiji Kawamoto, Minami Yotsuya, Aika Takiguchi, Natsuki Odaka and Motoyasu Odaka as well as Tsuneharu Suga, the younger brother of Ryuuichi, and Nobuo Yotsuya, the brother of Nana Yotsuya.

Team Suga: Ryuuichi Suga, Nana Yotsuya, Mayumi Odaka, Yūya Okazaki, Yukio Kamiya, Makoto Toyama, Yasutarō Shintani, Riko Anabuki, Iori Fuchizaki, Yoshino Kageyama, Tsuneharu Suga and Nobuo Yotsuya
Allies of Team Suga: Seiji Kawamoto, Minami Yotsuya, Aika Takiguchi, Natsuki Odaka and Motoyasu Odaka


“Wow!” shouted Nana.

“It’s so amazing!” exclaimed Mayumi.

“I can’t believe that they’re a lot of people out there!” said Tsuneharu Suga, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Shizuno Elementary School and the younger brother of Ryuuichi Suga.

“It looks like they’re having a great night to celebrate this wonderful event!” said Nobuo Yotsuya, a first year high school student from the Magome High School and the older brother of Nana Yotsuya.

“I guess that this one had been paid off after all!” said Makoto Toyama.

“Yes, it is, Makoto-kun” said Ryuuichi.

“Hey, it’s Subaru!” said Nana as she looks at Subaru who was chatting with Kazuhiro and the Royal Flush of Fukuoka.

“Let’s meet him!” said Mayumi.

“Okay!” said Ryuuichi as he alongside Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and their friends and allies would approach Subaru by greeting him nicely.

“Hey, Subaru-kun!” shouted Ryuuichi.

“Hi!” said Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and their friends and allies

“Oh, there you are, Ryuuichi-kun! I’m so glad that you’re here to witness this event!” said Subaru.

“Yes, I am!” said Ryuuichi.

“I hope that you’re here because the celebration will not stop until it’s almost midnight. So, make yourself comfortable while celebrating this wonderful event” said Subaru.

“Okay!” said Ryuuichi, Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and their friends and allies.

“I’m very busy right now, but feel free to chat with us later if you want!” said Subaru before leaving to go back to chatting with Kazuhiro and the Royal Flush of Fukuoka.

“Sure, we would be glad to!” said Ryuuichi, Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and their friends and allies.

“Now, let’s get some food right here!” said Ryuuichi.

“Okay!” said Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and their friends and allies as they alongside Ryuuichi would pick up some food at the food stall before eating their dinner together in their table. They would share their laughter and joy while eating their dinner to make sure that they will never forget this night for sure.

“Oh, this tastes good!” said Seiji Kawamoto, a third year middle school student from the Magome Middle School and the cousin of Ryuuichi Suga through Ryuuichi’s maternal side, which both Seiji’s father and Ryuuichi’s mother are siblings.

“I’m no longer craving, thanks to this one!” said Minami Yotsuya, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Shizuno Elementary School and the cousin of Nana Yotsuya through Nana’s father, which both Minami’s father and Nana’s father are brothers.

“I’m glad that the cooks have done this big time!” said Aika Takiguchi, a second year high school student from the Magome High School and the cousin of Nana Yotsuya through Nana’s father, which both Aika’s mother and Nana’s father are brothers.

“Yep! They have served the best foods in this ward with the combination of grilled and gourmet foods all in one place!” said Nana.

“They have been paid off with different foods that you have choose from!” said Mayumi.

“It feels great that you have been grateful that you have been interested into these foods because they’re so delicious” said Ryuuichi.

“And you will love it!” said Tsuneharu.

“Yeah!” said Seiji, Minami, Aika, Natsuki and Motoyasu. Natsuki and Motoyasu Odaka are the cousins of Mayumi Odaka through Mayumi’s father, which both Natsuki Motoyasu’s father and Mayumi’s father are brothers. Natsuki is a first year high school student from the Magome High School while Motoyasu is a second year middle school student from the Magome Middle School.

“It’s so awesome that we’re all gathered here where we’re celebrating the development of the friendship between the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka, despite I’m a big rival of both Subaru and Kazuhiro” said Ryuuichi.

“Of course, you are, cousin! I know that you had been heated for the recent days because of your rivalry with Subaru” said Nana.

“You’re seemed to be unpredictable when you have a rivalry like that” said Mayumi.

“But you don’t want to give up now” said Yasutarō Shintani, a third year high school student from the Kōjiya High School and a former schoolmate of Ryuuichi Suga during his middle school days at the Shizuno Middle School. He’s also the starting shooting guard for the Kōjiya High School boys’ basketball team.

“Yeah! It’s complicated that I have two rivals that they’re proved to be good, but I’ll vow to beat both of them one day when my Itoda Jitsugyō High School will be battling against those teams in the future” said Ryuuichi.

“Well, you should, cousin. I don’t want to worry about you with your attitude in the court because it will be hard to overcome it” said Nana.

“Even you became hot and ferocious to your opponents, you can’t still get it done” said Mayumi.

“Yeah, I know. I should be more careful on my attitude on the court because my egotism is the thing that I have to stop for myself” said Ryuuichi.

“Of course, you should stop that, Ryuuichi-kun. I mean, you’re a good athlete that showed some aura to prove that you’re the best player in Ōta right before you got beaten by Subaru. It seems that you need to re-energize yourself if you want to beat him again” said Makoto.

“If you keep using your aggressive tactics to beat those two, you will not be able to stop them because they’re ahead of you based on the level of potential” said Yasutarō.

“You have to be more careful on using your tactics against any opponents that are battling you” said Yūya Okazaki.

“If you want to prove yourself that you’re the best player in Ōta again, then you have to stop getting your frustrations and anger and focus on training hard” said Yukio Kamiya.

“That will make you feel better that you’re the new improved Ryuuichi Suga” said Nana.

“You will be more formidable to show that you’re better than anyone else” said Mayumi.

“Yes, I should” said Ryuuichi.

“Speaking of which, brother, I wonder what kind of friendship that you have in Roppongi” said Tsuneharu.

“Yeah, we heard that you have some friends out there” said Nobuo.

“It will be amazing that you’re gonna share this one” said Natsuki Odaka.

“So that, we will remember those names when we’re going to meet them one day” said Motoyasu Odaka.

“Oh, sure, I would be glad to, guys! You better get ready to see this because it’s going to be something that will shock you!” said Ryuuichi.

“Okay!” said Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and the relatives and allies of Ryuuichi.

“As you can see, when I started to study in Itoda Jitsugyō for high school last year, I began to fascinate myself to make new friends there including my teammates from my boys’ basketball team” said Ryuuichi.

“Who they are?” asked Natsuki.

“Can you tell us?” added Motoyasu.

“They were Fumihisa Honda, Tatsuya Suzumoto, Keita Yamanouchi and Koya Ishimura” said Ryuuichi.

“Wow! Those guys are so cool!” said Natsuki.

“I can’t believe that they’re more athletic, I tell you!” said Motoyasu.

“Those guys are more formidable to reckon with” said Seiji.

“And they’re pretty outstanding as well!” said Minami.

“I have to say that your teammates are very serious and expressive in representing your team” said Aika.

“Yep! I had joined that team last year when their head coach Ryōtarō Shimazaki had offered me to train there for a scholarship and it had been paid off. Since then, I begin to transition myself to be the ace of that team, which I had been earned for that after our season is over through roster changes with some senpais have been graduating” said Ryuuichi.

“Ah, that’s good! I’m so surprised that you want to be the ace of the team, just next to your captain” said Seiji. The captain of the Itoda Jitsugyō High School boys’ basketball team is Muneyoshi Kosugi.

“It feels great that you have earned that spot, thanks to your strength and prowess that have been improved through the training that you have with your teammates” said Minami.

“You’re more focused on the grit and grind system that you want to be more of a power-up player for your team” said Aika.

“Yes, I am” said Ryuuichi.

“So, by the way, Ryuuichi, how’s your relationship with the captain of your team?” asked Yūya.

“Well, to be honest, Muneyoshi is an ambitious captain when he had led my team and he had been a great job in taking everyone on notice, but when it comes to my relationship with him, it’s not bad to have, to say the least, where we have gotten along with each other on a weekend group dinner. It was so nice that Muneyoshi had been able to groom me like the way he did to his teammates, but I’m so grateful that I had finally inspired him” said Ryuuichi.

“Oh, that’s very nice, Ryuuichi-kun! I have to say that you’re more confident to get along with your friends out there” said Yukio.

“Especially that you had a good friend of yours being a mentor to you” said Yūya.

“It’s going to be amazing that you and your friends will finally work together now that you’re in the starting lineup” said Tsuneharu.

“Yeah, I agree! He’s so determined that he had taken care of everything when it comes to leading my team and I want to be like him if I want to transition myself to be the captain of that team in the future. I’m always wanting to lead a team like how I did in the past because that’s what transitioned me to prove that I’m the alpha dog in Ōta” said Ryuuichi.

“So, you think that you’re going to work on being the captain for your current high school team?” asked Riko Anabuki.

“You said earlier that you’re the ace of the team” said Iori Fuchizaki.

“Will you transition on that for you to become a different guy that runs a team like that?” asked Yoshino Kageyama.

“Yes, why not I’m gonna do that! I mean, I had been grooming my way to become the captain in Shizuno in the past, but it’s going to be hard if I want to be the captain of a high school basketball team who had been more potential of hoping to advance to the Interhigh Nationals. I should be ready to dazzle with my moves to swift my opponents away and make it all the way to the top” said Ryuuichi.

“Ah, I see. I’m very nervous about this, Ryuuichi-san, but to be honest, you can’t be a captain of a high school team until it reaches third year, but for some reason, some other schools have appointed captains that are second year high school students” said Riko.

“Take a look at Nashiba. They have appointed Subaru to be the new captain of that team, even though they have a lack of third year high school students in their roster” said Iori.

“So, it may be possible that you can lead Itoda Jitsugyō if you have the potential to take care with” said Yoshino.

“Which will be a tough mission that you have to accomplish it” said Nana.

“Unless that you want to be more eager in getting that spot, then don’t push it too hard” said Mayumi.

“Yeah, I see that point, girls. I’m definitely confident that I want to be the captain of my team if my teammates have persuaded me to do it, but I don’t want to pressure myself” said Ryuuichi.

“Then, in that case, why don’t you play it nice if you want to be the captain of your team” said Seiji.

“You have your confidence in your mind, but you can’t control those all be yourself” said Minami.

“If you do that, then you’ll be in big trouble” said Aika.

“That’s why you have to be patient in trying to transition yourself to be the captain of the team” said Natsuki.

“Which means that you should be trusting the playbook that your head coach had” said Motoyasu.

“It’s going to be different that you have your own transition to use with because you have the ability to do anything for your team to shine” said Nobuo.

“That way, you will rally your team to victory” said Tsuneharu.

“Yeah, I should, guys. My head coach Ryōtarō Shimazaki said that it’s not all about the power, but it’s all about the generosity that everyone in my team had to remember” said Ryuuichi.

“Of course, you should, cousin! I have to say that you have your opportunities to live up with for your team, but I think that you should be very careful what you wish for” said Nana.

“Everyone is watching on you, which will be something that you have to keep an eye on” said Mayumi.

“Yeah, I agree, Nana-san and Mayumi-san” said Ryuuichi.

“Back to what you’re saying about your teammates, how your relationship with them had worked out?” asked Natsuki.

“And how they started to trust you?” added Motoyasu.

“My teammates have been very determined to make friends with me because they know that I’m a stronger player with my aura coming out and I always want to have fun with them. One time, Fumihisa and Tatsuya have brought me a treat and I was so shocked that they wanted to cheer for me. I like that when I found out that they’re too friendly at all. Also, they have trained me during our practice session where it turned out to be good. I’m so pumped up that I have been flanked by them” said Ryuuichi.

“Ah, I see! I’m so glad that those two have been able to comfort you without hesitation” said Natsuki.

“That means that you’re looking determined that they have been able to groom you just like your captain did” said Motoyasu.

“Yes, they were, guys” said Ryuuichi.

“But what about Keita and Koya?” asked Aika.

“For Keita, he always called me ‘Ryu-kun’ and I started to trust him when he gave me a chocolate bar during the first practice match. I was so stunned that he’s complimenting me when he looked at my performance. He’s so nice and uplifted with his smile will never fall” said Ryuuichi.

“That’s very nice for him! I’m feeling bloomed that you have a good teammate that shows you some compassion” said Aika.

“Yes, indeed, Aika-san. And as for Koya… well, at first, I was so skeptical to him when he made fun of me with his jokes, but I finally like him as well because he likes to make puns to everyone in my team. There’s one moment that in a birthday celebration for a senpai named Kimio Wakai, he told a lot of jokes about NBA players. That guy was really funny and I can laugh all I want” said Ryuuichi.

“Well, he’s more of a prankster, cousin, but he has a tough heart to show how he motivated for himself” said Seiji.

“That’s why he’s eccentric enough to indulge you every time he cracked up some jokes” said Minami.

“Yeah, he did, but sometimes, he did too much” said Ryuuichi.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Seiji, Minami and Aika.

“On the other hand, I started to become friends with Makoto because he’s a new member of my team. We started to work together one time in a training two weeks ago where I trained him to make sure that he’s fit in my team. Although he’s not good in defense, but he’s not bad at all, taking some jumpshots and driving layups that he had” said Ryuuichi.

“You’re right about that, Ryuuichi-kun! I’m so generous that you have trained me hard to make sure that I’ll be deserved to take up the spot for your team. I’m feeling exhilarated that you made me feel good to be part of your team. I’m hoping that you’ll be ready to groom me no matter what!” said Makoto.

“Of course, I can, Makoto-kun! I’m always entrusting you to make sure that you will shine as you will come off from the bench for my team. However, you could be a starter one day if you want to deserve yourself to be fit in our head coach’s rotation” said Ryuuichi.

“Yeah, sure, I would be glad to!” said Makoto.

“That’s very nice, cousin! I can’t believe that you and Makoto have started a good friendship since you two were on the same team!” said Nana.

“I’m so proud of you, Ryuuichi! It feels great that you had an apprentice to groom for your team because you might want him to be a starter one day” said Mayumi.

“You’re doing a great job to have a guy who just joined the team, so that you will be able to make him develop with your way of training” said Tsuneharu.

“I’ll be more surprised if this guy can be stronger than you, but you never know that you had your teammates who were trying to prove themselves like you” said Nobuo.

“Yeah, I agree!” said Ryuuichi while giving Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu and Nobuo a smile on his face. “I have done that before in Shizuno where three guys have been groomed their way to deserve themselves as starters, which they were Sōsuke Nagatomo, Masayuki Yoshimura and Naohisa Hiramoto. I always want to groom them to make sure that they’re worthy to be part of my team if they have guts to show up. Hopefully, I will be able to groom a lot in high school because they’re definitely different, compared to those from middle school, but I will try my best to groom another one if I want to.”

“If you want to groom more for your team to be formidable, then good for you!” said Tsuneharu.

“I believe that your team should be ready to take everyone on notice” said Nobuo.

“So that, they will be entrusting you with their sincere smiles” said Nana.

“Your team will look more formidable if things have gone better for your team and I hope that we will see that when your team is ready to go for the Interhigh prefectural tournament” said Mayumi.

“Yeah, I hope so” said Ryuuichi.

“You know what, Ryuuichi-kun, you can allow your teammates to groom, but there are some limitations on that. Only third year students can do that to groom fresh faces that have joined one team, which means that they’ll easily groom themselves to transition of becoming great players for that team in the future. However, since you’re the best player in our hometown, you can do that with at least one player, but you can’t do more than one because it’s still locked yet” said Yasutarō.

“Yeah, I believe that you’re right about this. Maybe, I have to stick to just one before I will groom another the next year, so that I have many players to groom themselves” said Ryuuichi.

“Okay, you can keep grooming your guy until you will finally get some ability to groom more than one person in your team. That way, it will be fair enough for them to be stronger in the following year through different ways to develop” said Yasutarō.

“Sure, I will!” said Ryuuichi.

“Aside from being a member of the Itoda Jitsugyō High School boys’ basketball team, did you join a club?” asked Yūya.

“Yes, of course, Yūya-kun. I had joined the disciplinary committee, led by Kōjiro Ōmurō” said Ryuuichi.

“Ah, interesting club out there! I can’t believe that you want to serve justice to those who have committed violations in your school” said Yūya.

“I guess that you had your own pride to get up with because you want to make the school more peaceful” said Yukio.

“Yes, I am!” said Ryuuichi.

“Did you enjoy being part of that group?” asked Aika.

“Well, not much, but I often visited that club when it’s not related to basketball” said Ryuuichi.

“I heard that you’re sloppy when you didn’t able to stop those vandals in your school” said Natsuki.

“That would be a bad reputation, I tell you!” said Motoyasu.

“Yeah, it’s my fault that I didn’t able to catch them red-handed, but my fellow club members have done it though” said Ryuuichi.

“Oh, I see. Then, you should not disappoint your friends from that club because they’re more strict and not serious” said Natsuki.

“If you commit mistakes in your club, then you’re no longer part of it, which means that you’re kicked out of the group” said Motoyasu.

“You have to be more determined and vigilant if you want to catch someone to justice” said Aika.

“Yeah, I should” said Ryuuichi.

“Oh, there’s one other thing, Ryuuichi-kun. Have you found a partner-in-crime for your club?” said Seiji.

“Yes, I have. I have a friend of mine named Minoru Higashimura, a second year high school student from the Itoda Jitsugyō High School. He’s a quick catcher for the baseball team and he had used to track down violators by spotting some clues before finally handling them down. I tried to do the same thing as him, but I’m not pretty good enough to do though because I’m a low-tier catcher and I need to increase my reputation if I want to catch some bad guys in my school” said Ryuuichi. Minoru Higashimura is the cousin of Shinobu Higashimura, a member of the Keishin Academy Elementary School boys’ basketball team.

“Oh, that’s too bad, Ryuuichi-kun. I’m sure that you have to improve in catching those bad guys because it’s very difficult to stop them” said Seiji.

“Unless if you want to easily handle them, then you have to find a safe place to capture one” said Minami.

“Those bad guys are nasty and sneaky, if you ask me” said Riko.

“They make your life a living hell” said Iori.

“So, if you don’t want to be miserable with your life a living hell, then shut them up and capture them with your vigilant eyes” said Yoshino.

“Of course, I will!” said Ryuuichi.

“Also, you have to keep an eye on your surroundings when you’re patrolling for the disciplinary committee” said Nana.

“If you find it difficult, then you need your partner-in-crime some help” said Mayumi.

“So that, you will be able to capture those bad guys” said Nobuo.

“But remember, you should not utter a single bad word because if you do, you’ll be in big trouble, brother” said Tsuneharu.

“Yeah, I should” said Ryuuichi.

“I’m not offended to your vulgar words, Ryuuichi-kun, because you sound like you’re about to be aggressive, but please, you need to catch them without using those words, otherwise, they’ll kick you and make your life a living hell” said Makoto.

“Of course, for sure!” said Ryuuichi.

“Outside school, did you join a group in Roppongi?” asked Yūya.

“No, Yūya-kun. I didn’t join a group that are coming from Roppongi because I already have a group, which is the Magome Elites-Team Suga, but I used to be associated to the Six Thunderbolts, which is led by Toshikazu Iwamura” said Ryuuichi.

“Ah, that’s a very interesting group, Ryuuichi-kun. I didn’t know that you had a group that you associated with while you were studying in Itoda Jitsugyō” said Yūya.

“Yes, of course” said Ryuuichi.

“But one thing, how did you become associated with them?” queried Yūya.

“Well, I had a friend of mine named Masahisa Yamada, who had invited me to a party in one of the bars in Roppongi where there’s a Saturday Drive for the members of the Six Thunderbolts. They’re not more associated to the yakuzas, but they are more in engaging activities against youth crimes in the district. I often not to participate with them because I already have a group of my own, but only if Masahisa had pleaded me to join with his friends just for fun” said Ryuuichi.

“Oh, I see. I guess that you’re more on being open-minded in teaming up with them” said Yūya.

“There are a lot of differences in Roppongi because there are a lot of delinquents working out there” said Yukio.

“Especially that there are some rough people who wanted to take the ‘warlord’ style in taking control against one another” said Yasutarō.

“Yeah, I guess so. However, Masahisa had allowed me to run my own group, which I did creating the Magome Elites-Team Suga to reunite with my former friends in Shizuno” said Ryuuichi.

“Of course, you did! We always want you to lead us” said Yūya.

“That way, you’ll be able to make us more determined and vigilant” said Yukio.

“Yes, I agree with that!” said Ryuuichi.

“So, let me get this straight, Ryuuichi. You run your own group, but you have also become an associate with a group. How did you do that?” said Riko.

“I have my own principle of making friends in one place to another where I can only have one group to run, but also I can become associates with any group that I have been interested with” said Ryuuichi.

“Oh, okay, I understand about that. I have to say that you want to be more friends from other groups even you have already run your own” said Riko.

“Which is very weird to see that unless you want to make a union with them” said Iori.

“That way, it will be powerful to have that just like how the yakuzas did” said Yoshino.

“I’m not interested into yakuzas, Yoshino, but I have my own opportunity of making friends that are not much nasty and sneaky” said Ryuuichi.

“Ah, okay. So, I guess that you’re more in fighting against crimes just like how you did in school” said Yoshino.

“Yep!” said Ryuuichi.

“I like the way that you became friends with those that are more determined in fighting against crime, but I hope that you don’t want to get into trouble” said Seiji.

“Sometimes, things may be sour if one of your friends had a rough situation in handling those bad guys” said Minami.

“Because usually bad guys can make attacks and takes control over one place to another” said Aika.

“Which is why we don’t want to see you hurt” said Natsuki.

“Even if you want to get involved in pickup fights” said Motoyasu.

“Yeah” said Ryuuichi.

“So, for my advice, cousin, you should not trust anybody who is trying to console you for help. Just don’t mind on those that are not believing you” said Nana.

“It will be good to stay away from your potential enemies in Roppongi” said Mayumi.

“Even you got a situation like a street fight between your associates and their rivals” said Nobuo.

“So, you have to be more mindful in finding a good place to stop those ridiculous situations and you should seize the day of your own” said Tsuneharu.

“Yeah, I agree with that, brother. I hope that I will be able to do anything that is way better than just making pickup fights and unreasonable stuff” said Ryuuichi.

“Yeah, you should!” said Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and the relatives and allies of Ryuuichi.

“By the way, did you recognize Hironobu Ishijima?” asked Makoto.

“I don’t know about this” said Ryuuichi.

“He’s a first year high school student from the Hanzōsen High School and a member of the boys’ basketball team of that team. He’s from Roppongi as well” said Makoto.

“Oh! I didn’t know that he was a member of that team that is considered the strongest in Minato!” said Ryuuichi.

“Yep! Hironobu had been a great athletic player who had made his difference in showing to his doubters that he can ball” said Makoto while showing a video of Hironobu playing one-on-one pickup match against his opponent where he made the layups that are resembled to Trae Young.

“Wow! I can’t believe about this! You know about him?” said Ryuuichi.

“Well, I didn’t meet him in person, but I was surprised that some youngster posted a video on him and it went viral in just two weeks!” said Makoto.

“Oh, that’s fascinating! I’m sure that this guy could have a potential in making it to the professional league” said Ryuuichi.

“Yeah, even he’s just 15 years old! His birthday is on September 19, which is four months away from now” said Makoto.

“I can’t wait to meet him if I want to prove to him that I’m better than him!” said Ryuuichi.

“Uh, I don’t think that you’re gonna be better than him, brother” said Tsuneharu.

“Yeah, your brother’s right. That guy had been played for the Hanzōsen Middle School boys’ basketball team for three years and he’s phenomenal!” said Nana.

“He had the same potential as Kōji Hanagata, the leader of the Bravehearts of Minato and the ace of the Hanzōsen High School boys’ basketball team” said Mayumi.

“If you think that you’re gonna beat that guy, you have to observe him first before you’ll face him” said Nobuo.

“That way, you will be able to have a chance to beat him with your own plays to shine” said Makoto.

“Well, if you say so, guys, but I’m looking forward to see him for sure” said Ryuuichi.

“Okay!” said Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and the relatives and allies of Ryuuichi.

“Oh, by the way, I had met Atsushi Kasuya, who was the cousin of Chiyoko Sonoda from her maternal side, the Kurohara clan” said Ryuuichi. Atsushi Kasuya is a second year high school student from the Hanzōsen High School and the cousin of Chiyoko Sonoda.

“WHAT?!” shouted Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and the relatives and allies of Ryuuichi.

“You met him?!” shouted Nana.

“No way that you have met him!” exclaimed Mayumi.

“You got to be kidding me?!” reacted Tsuneharu.

“Are you serious?!” added Nobuo.

“Yep! He’s the leader of the Red Velvet Society, a group based in Shiba, and he had been a determined organizer for the PR videos of Chiyoko and her fellow idols from Hōkago Climax Girls” said Ryuuichi.

“Ah, okay. I thought that you’re gonna mention that idol, but thank goodness, you had mentioned a relative of her” said Nana.

“There are a lot of cousins of Chiyoko in Minato and Kōtō, which means that they’re very indulged to represent for her” said Mayumi.

“I’m sure that you will be shocked to see him very determined and confident to show his pure heart to you” said Tsuneharu.

“He’s not always giving up without a word, I tell you!” said Nobuo.

“Yes, he is, guys! When I met him in person, I was surprised that he had been admiring his cousin as well as the rest of Hōkago Climax Girls, which is why I started to praised him when I looked at his videos” said Ryuuichi.

“Oh, that’s very nice! I’m so glad that you had admired him with his videos being off the charts!” said Nana.

“That guy had been ambitious to become a PR video maker, so that he will be able to make the fanbase of Chiyoko getting bigger” said Mayumi.

“It’s going to be great that you’re gonna be a fan of her if you want to, brother” said Tsuneharu.

“That way, she will be able to admired you for sure!” said Nobuo.

“Well, I’m not very interested into idols, to be honest, guys, but I would be okay if I am an acquaintance to them” said Ryuuichi.

“Okay” said Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu and Nobuo.

“So, what’s next for you, Ryuuichi-kun?” asked Seiji.

“Will you expect something big for your basketball team or your group?” added Minami.

“You see, for my basketball team, we will be kicking off our pre-season in our gymnasium for our first match against the Gotanda Technical High School, a school based in Shinagawa” said Ryuuichi.

“That’s a good match for you and your team, Ryuuichi-kun. I’m so glad that you’re gonna have a stacked schedule that you’re going to take on before the Interhigh prefectural tournament” said Seiji.

“It will be amazing that you’re going to lead your team, so that you will rally their way to victory” said Minami.

“Yeah, I agree with that, cousins. Mr. Shimazaki said that there will be 8 matches that have been confirmed for our pre-season, which also includes our kick-off in our home floor on May 13 (Thursday) against Gotanda Technical. After that, we’ll have 3 more home games and 4 away games in the span of four weeks with the last match may possibly be against Nashiba” said Ryuuichi.

“So, you mean, that last match will be up against your rival Subaru?” asked Aika.

“Yeah!” said Ryuuichi.

“No way, cousin! You will have a revenge match against him?!” shouted Aika.

“You had some history with that guy before!” exclaimed Natsuki.

“Are you serious, Ryuuichi-kun?!” reacted Motoyasu.

“Yeah, you’re right about that! However, it’s not yet final as it was Subaru’s idea of arranging a match that would be more highly competitive since me and Subaru were rivals. Of course, once Mr. Shimazaki will approve this match, then it will be settled once and for all that there’s going to be more of a high stake battle between me and Subaru” said Ryuuichi. The planned match was officially confirmed a few days later, which was mentioned by Subaru in Chapter 172.

“Well, I hope that you’ll be ready to have a match against your rival very soon, Ryuuichi-kun, because you’re seemed to be very confident that you’re gonna have some firepower to take on with against him” said Seiji.

“You should be very prepared when you faced Subaru because unlike what you have faced him last week in the Fuchsia and Celadon Dragons Tournament, he finally improved his style of play” said Minami.

“Especially his shooting efficiency had been greatly improved” said Aika.

“So, it’s going to be a tough challenge for you to stop that guy” said Natsuki.

“I hope that you will find your way to make a strategy for your team to stop Subaru if you can handle for yourself” said Motoyasu.

“I would definitely do that if I were the head coach, but it’s up to Mr. Shimazaki to decide on that” said Ryuuichi.

“That’s good, Ryuuichi-kun! Maybe, you will be more prepared to stop him because he’s very strong” said Makoto.

“And thanks to what he had done to us last time, it’s impossible to stop his aura no matter what!” said Yūya.

“You should be training hard if you want to prove to Subaru that you’re still the best player in Ōta” said Yukio.

“You will never give up for yourself because you’re very strong and formidable” said Yasutarō.

“Yes, indeed!” said Ryuuichi before changing his next goal on what’s next for him. “For my community, I want to be more confident in running my own team in Ōta, but some day, I can form my own group for my friends in Minato if I will be able to develop my friendship with them. That way, we will be ready to run together like the way we used to.”

“That’s a good one, Ryuuichi! I’m sure that you will have plans on this, but you already said that you want to join the Bravehearts of Ōta” said Riko.

“The group that your rival lead” said Iori.

“Do you think that you’re going to focus on both things in one piece?” asked Yoshino.

“Uh… I don’t know if I will work on both things, but honestly, I’m still trying to develop some new friends in Minato, so that I will create my own friend group in Minato. So, I might have to think about it for now” said Ryuuichi.

“Ah, I understand that, Ryuuichi. I guess that you will have to develop your friendship with your allies in Minato first you will create your own friend group for them” said Yoshino.

“Yeah, you’re right about that!” said Ryuuichi.

“Does that mean that you may not join the Bravehearts of Ōta?” asked Riko.

“I’m not entirely sure, but I will wait for my time to decide on that” said Ryuuichi.

“Well, you have your faith in your hands, Ryuuichi. We’ll support your decision when it’s right time to announce that” said Riko.

“So that, you will be able to mend your rivalry with Subaru for now” said Iori.

“Sure, I would be glad to, girls!” said Ryuuichi.

“What about us, cousin?” asked Nana.

“What are you planning for us?” added Mayumi.

“I think that I want to do is to organize a small gathering with you guys on Mayumi’s birthday, which will be on May 21 (Friday)” said Ryuuichi.

“Oh, yes! My birthday is almost there, Ryuuichi-kun! I hope that you will be ready to prepare on that because my friends are thrilled to see you!” said Mayumi.

“Why, of course! I would be more confident to make your friends feel good in a heartbeart, Mayumi-san!” said Ryuuichi.

“Yeah, you should! Me and my brother are very excited about this because it will be so nice that we will run our own show to make my birthday more blooming and beautiful” said Mayumi.

“You should be ready to make this more special and we will bless you!” said Nobuo.

“Okay, then. I will do it, but one condition, if you can impress me one day with your hobbies, then I would be happy to make that happen” said Ryuuichi.

“Okay!” said Mayumi and Nobuo.

“Oh, I’m going to be so excited for this, brother!” said Tsuneharu.

“It will be awesome that you’re gonna make my friend feel good on her birthday, cousin!” said Nana.

‘Yes, I will! Then, you’re all invited once Mayumi’s birthday is all set!” said Ryuuichi.

“Yeah!” said Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and the relatives and allies of Ryuuichi.

“It’s so nice that you have shared a lot about your friends in Minato and I’m very delighted that you made us feel good!” said Seiji.

“I have to say that you’re a good and blessed guy, Ryuuichi!” said Minami.

“Even though that you’re more heated in the inside, but you’re more of a determined and vigilant guy on the outside” said Aika.

“I believe that you will be ready to develop your friendship with your friends in Minato for more, so that you will have your time to rise your new group alongside the Magome Elites-Team Suga” said Natsuki.

“Everything will be looked good once you’ll be able to have them feel blessed and inspired” said Motoyasu.

“Yes, I agree with that, guys! I have my own faith for you all because I don’t want you to let you down and I want to be here for you! I can do whatever I want to make sure that you’re all here to motivate me” said Ryuuichi.

“Well, you’re certainly a good cousin, Ryuuichi-san! I always believe in you!” said Nana.

“Yeah, me either! I’m sure that this will be very nice that we will be here to bless and inspire you for more” said Mayumi.

“You should be more determined to prove that you’re a good guy rather than being a bad guy” said Nobuo.

“We always want to support you in your basketball career, so that you will groom your way to shine” said Yūya.

“Our confidence is deeply heartened for us to give you a smile that we need” said Yukio.

“Hopefully, you will be able to cherish yourself, so that everybody will be here to groom and bloom you” said Yasutarō.

“It will be exciting that you’re ready to shine your way without losing your temper. That’s what I want for you, brother” said Tsuneharu.

“Yeah, you got it! It’s a great night for all of us and it will be amazing that we will gather together no matter because we’re all here to be determined and vigilant!” said Ryuuichi.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and the relatives and allies of Ryuuichi.

“Now, let’s enjoy this night to cap off our day and start again for tomorrow to seize for sure!” said Ryuuichi.

“Yeah!” said Nana, Mayumi, Tsuneharu, Nobuo and the relatives and allies of Ryuuichi. Ryuuichi had shared about his friends in Minato to his friends and allies, which means that he had been able to make them feel thrilled and motivated that they have known about his secrets when he was with his friends in Minato. As the rival of Subaru, Ryuuichi will be more motivated to show that he will never give up with his comforted heart, so that everyone on his side will always believe in him and that will give him a brighter smile to them without a doubt that he’s indeed a good friend.

LATER TONIGHT: A Special Message from Kasumi Nakasu

A Special Message from Kasumi Nakasu

Hi, everyone! This is Kasumi Nakasu of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I’m going to share about the connection circle of Yasue Ichikawa, a member of the Bravehearts of Minato and the Dream Pink and Aqua Group. If you read the previous postscript messages about the connection circles of the other members of the Bravehearts of Minato, you’re in luck because Kasumin will be here to share a connection circle of a cute and elegant braveheart just like me in Yasue Ichikawa. Anyway, before I’ll share about it, I’ll be explaining about the connection circle and how does it work out. The connection circle is a special circle group that is exclusively to Minato and its neighboring areas where one member of the Bravehearts of Minato is connected through friend groups and allies that have been made and how they have developed their friendship with them. Anyone can make friends to form a connection circle, so that they’ll shine together with their smiles and thrills, which Kasumin feels happy to see them after all! So, the last time that a connection circle was shared was for Ruriko Hosoda, which was shared by Karin Asaka, and of course, both Ruriko and Yasue came from the Dream Pink and Aqua Group due to them being connected to both Shinako Takanashi, the cousin of Ayumu Uehara, and Hinako Ōsaka, the cousin of Shizuku Ōsaka. Now, for Yasue’s connection circle, it will be divided into two sections: her group, the Yellow Aurora, and her allies. First up, the Yellow Aurora. That group had been very prestigious and motivated to support Yasue whenever she was in the court to step up for Hanzōsen and of course, they’re very close to her without losing her heart. Their leader Izumi Yaginuma is a good friend of Yasue due to her cheerful and cute personality always pay attention to Yasue to make her happy. Izumi was also a compassionated leader that can show her smile to her fellow groupmates from the Yellow Aurora and she can make charismatic ways to prove that she’ll always be a close friend to Yasue. By the way, both Yasue and Izumi were interested in picking clothes that are cute and innocent just like how me, Kanata Konoe, Emma Verde and Rina Tennōji used to wear themed clothes for our performance as members of NijiGaku and QU4RTZ. One time, Yasue chose the Margaret-like attire for Izumi, so that she can wear it on her birthday, which was a big success and I was able to see her dazzling with her costume and I’m very happy with it! They were also interested in playing dollhouse and visiting luxurious stores for fabulous bracelets and necklaces. On the other hand, when it comes to her allies, they were so cute to show their innocence and courage with their smiles coming out and one of the examples of her allies is my fellow schoolmate Mimi Toyama, the leader of the Starchill Ophelia. Mimi was very determined to get close to Yasue and they have shared their interests in watching comedy and slice of life anime that are related to girls and eating hamburgers and cakes. When the members of both Yellow Aurora and Starchill Ophelia have gotten along with them, they would go shopping to buy some elegant clothes and take some pedicure to make their nails and toes so shinier. You’ll be amazed to see them getting along with each other because they’re very strong and confident to make them dazzled and thrilled for sure! Also, one thing that you find it coincidental is that Miyuki Takizawa, the leader of the True Edelweiss, would also gotten along with Yasue due to them being very close as well and as a result, they can show their smiles by doing different activities such as singing karaoke and dancing. I’m feeling grateful for Yasue because she’ll always come out to shine through her prestigiousness and admiration, so that she’ll make herself smile without missing her moment like she used to get along with her fellow bravehearts. I hope that you’ll do the same thing to stay prestigious and admired for sure! The next connection circle that will be shown in the next postscript message will be Moeko Higashikuni, the rival of Shinako Takanashi and a first year middle school student from the Shushiba Middle School, which will be explained by Kanata Konoe and it will be posted on December 15 (Wednesday), a day before her birthday (December 16). Get ready to gleam and shine to witness another connection circle coming out to make sure that you’ll never miss this for yourself in the next postscript message that is related to the connection circle of the Bravehearts of Minato! Until then, I’ll see you next time when we’ll meet again in our side chapter that will feature our school idol club and stay positive to make yourself cute and smile, everyone!

SIDE STORY: “RED SECTION STORIES
CHAPTER 96: “THERE’S A COLORFUL QUARTZ TO GLEAM AND DAZZLE!

Date: May 9, 2010 (Sunday)

This side story is focused on Yoshimi Fujino and her group, the Hanei Quartzes, as they are meeting with the close friends of the former in contemplating their future for themselves.

At the Fujino Residence in Hanei, Yoshimi Fujino and her friends from the Hanei Quartzes are relaxing themselves at the living room before they’re going to take their mid-snack break. They would be joined by Kaguya Aoki, Shunichi Aoki, Yuki Fujino, Yasuya Fujino, Yūko Fujino, Taiyō Aiba, Kuriko Aiba, Daiki Kusanagi and Maya Tamegai.

Hanei Quartzes: Mieko Hoshino, Kazukuni Tamayama, Nanami Yoshimoto, Eiichi Kinoshita, Kazumasa Harada, Akiyo Takiyama, Shinichi Nakazato, Ayumi Yoshikawa, Manaka Koshikawa, Daisuke Sakurano, Kazunori Umetsu, Junko Hiramoto, Mayako Harasawa, Nobuo Tsujito and Kanako Fujikawa

“Everyone! I had brought some ice cream! You want some?” asked Yasuya Fujino, a third year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and the older brother of Yoshimi and Yūko Fujino. He’s also the younger brother of Yuki Fujino.

“Oh, I would want to have one, brother!” said Yoshimi Fujino.

“Yeah, me too!” said Yūko Fujino, the younger sister of Yoshimi Fujino.

“I can’t wait to eat this!” said Kaguya Aoki.

Oh, I love ice creams! That’s my favorite!” said Mieko.

“You can count on that because I’ll get some!” said Kazukuni Tamayama.

“Well, then, I will give you some ice cream for everyone!” said Yasuya.

“Hooray!” said Yoshimi, Yūko, Kaguya and the members of the Hanei Quartzes as Yasuya started to give them some ice cream. While at it, Yuki, Taiyō, Kuriko, Shunichi, Daiki and Maya are looking at them smiling while Yasuya gave them.

“It’s so nice that those guys have given some free ice cream for today. What do you think?” said Yuki Fujino, a first year high school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen High School and the big brother of Yasuya, Yoshimi and Yūko Fujino.

“Yeah, Yuki-kun! I’m so surprised that your sisters and their friends have been fallen in love on those because they were always excited to eat those!” said Taiyō Aiba.

“They’re having a great day for them because they know what time it is” said Kuriko Aiba, the younger sister of Taiyō Aiba.

“I always believe in their smiles, guys, because they have been so confident that they want to have their day being full of joys” said Shunichi Aoki, the older brother of Kaguya Aoki.

“They have never lost their blessings as they have their own confidence to show that they’re here to enjoy themselves” said Daiki Kusanagi, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a classmate of Kaguya Aoki.

“With their happiness being paid off, they know that this is their own joyful day to make sure that they will never miss their moments” said Maya Tamegai, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a classmate of Kaguya Aoki. She’s also the cousin of Hiroki Tamegai, a close friend of Dia Kurosawa, the older sister of Ruby Kurosawa and a member of Aqours.

“Yes, indeed! I’m always assured that they will always get themselves happy with their smiles being harmoniously grateful and I hope that they will keep this up for sure!” said Yuki.

“Yeah!” said Taiyō, Kuriko, Shunichi, Daiki and Maya.

“By the way, Yuki-kun, are the guests will be coming out in a few minutes?” asked Taiyō.

“They should be, Taiyō-kun. Yoshimi-nee said that they are about a few miles away from heading into our home” said Yuki.

“Oh, that’s good! I’m so excited that they will be here!” said Taiyō.

“It reminded me of last year’s birthday party where they have enjoyed themselves getting along with her” said Kuriko.

“I would be honest that they will be ready to get closed to Yoshimi because they know that she’s now part of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi” said Shunichi.

“Yep! She also said that with the extended group system will be coming into Aichi, she’s so excited about building this after she learned it from Harunobu, who had a meeting with the other braveheart leaders last May 7 (Friday), which means that she’s ready to build something even better than just a friend group!” said Yuki.

“Well, I hope that she will be ready to assemble her own group, so that they will be ready to run this for themselves to make Hanei and Hacchō more gleaming and more beautiful with their brighter ideas to make” said Taiyō.

“It will be amazing that they’re ready to show that they’re going to shine themselves with their smiles” said Kuriko.

“And they’re looking forward to have a brighter future on their hands” said Shunichi.

“I’m going to be excited to see this because not only Yoshimi will be joined by her friends from the Hanei Quartzes…” said Daiki.

“…but her close friends on her side as they’re all set to build their future as one family of friends!” said Maya.

“Yeah, you got it!” said Yuki.

A few seconds later, someone had pressed the doorbell, which triggers Yuki.

“I will get it, guys!” said Yuki as he walks on his way to the entrance of the Fujino Residence before opening the door to see who did it. To his surprise, it was none other than Kiyoka Matsuyama, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Elementary School and a close friend of Yoshimi Fujino. She would be joined by the close friends of Yoshimi, composed of Shiki Tayama, Kimio Uesugi, Risako Fukagawa, Shigemasa Kosugi, Tatsuya Minazuki, Kaede Himesaki, Kaho Sasaki, Takuma Ishidate and Ayami Kamikita.

“Good afternoon, Yuki-san!” greeted Kiyoka Matsuyama.

“Oh, you must be Kiyoka-chan! I’m glad that you came here alongside the other friends of my sister!” said Yuki.

“Yes, we are!” said the close friends of Yuki.

“We came here to see your sister because she promised me that she and her friends will be building their own circle of friends that will represent for her” said Kiyoka.

“It’s so great that she wanted to build a bigger and friendlier group that will be used to not only represent for her, but to her entire side that she had admired the most” said Shiki Tayama, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Elementary School and a close friend of Yoshimi Fujino.

“So, it would be fantastic that we’re gonna gleam on what she’s gonna share about her circle of friends” said Kimio Uesugi, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Elementary School and a close friend of Yoshimi Fujino.

“Hopefully, she will be ready to shock us once she’s revealing it!” said Risako Futagawa, a first year middle school student from the Hada Middle School and a close friend of Yoshimi Fujino.

“You’re right about that, my friend! Please, come inside and make yourself at our home!” said Yuki.

“Okay!” said the close friends of Yoshimi as they are entering the Fujino Residence. They would leave their shoes at the entrance while walking on their way to the living room to see Yoshimi and her friends from the Hanei Quartzes eating their ice creams.

“Hi, Yoshimi-chan!” said Kiyoka.

“Hi, Kiyoka-san! You came here just in time that we’re about to start the conversation” said Yoshimi.

“Oh, I see! Well, I’m very thrilled that you had some plans for your circle of friends because we’re so excited about this. Don’t you agree, guys?” said Kiyoka.

“Yeah!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“I’m sure that you’re excited for this because I have revealed the plans for my circle of friends!” said Yoshimi.

“That’s why it will be awesome that you’re gonna see what would it be like” said Meiko.

“As well as what our future activities will be taking place” said Kazukuni.

“Hopefully, you’re all excited for this because it will be our time to shine to make our community growing with blessings” said Nanami Yoshimoto.

“That way, we will be more compassionated to make us feel uplifted and prospered for sure!” said Eiichi Kinoshita.

“Yeah!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“We’re very confident that you guys will be ready to show how your teamwork being paid off with your activities and it will be great that we will do this together!” said Kiyoka.

“We will prove to the community we’re here to bless and inspire everyone” said Shiki.

“With our own ways to make thrills and joys” said Kimio.

“So that, they will be more bloomed enough to bless us” said Risako.

“Yeah, you got that right!” said Yoshimi.

“Well, we would be perfect if we can join as well because we also have our own ideas to take up with” said Yasuya.

“Yeah! That would be even better for all of us to hear what my sister sharing about” said Yuki.

“Since we’re all in one circle, then we’ll be interested to see what’s gleamig out there for your circle of friends” said Yūko.

“That’s great, siblings!” said Yoshimi.

“Whoa! No way!” said Kiyoka.

“I can’t believe that they’re gonna join with us!” said Shiki.

“This might be very interesting” said Kimio.

“If they will be here, then are you guys going to join as well?” queried Risako.

“Yes, we are!” said Taiyō, Kuriko, Shunichi, Daiki and Maya.

“We will be happy if you can chime in with us because it will make this conversation livelier and more interesting” said Taiyō.

“That way, you will be very thrilled to make Yoshimi and her friends very happy” said Kuriko.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“You can along with us because you’re all very close to me and I will be happy if you will share something related to our plans” said Yoshimi.

“Your plans will be appreciated, which we can accept those without any doubt” said Mieko.

“Of course, this is our time to share, so anything is possible to share no matter what!” said Kazukuni.

“Yeah, we will!” said Yuki, Yasuya, Yūko, Taiyō, Kuriko, Shunichi, Daiki and Maya.

“I will be part of it too, Yoshimi-san! I’m very associated to you and I’m aiming to become a full member of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi” said Kaguya.

“Oh, that’s great news, Kaguya-san! I’m so excited that you’ll become one of us after we have worked together yesterday with our collaborative activity at the garden in the Hoshikawa Residence” said Yoshimi.

“Yes, of course! Now that I was flanked by you and your friends out there including the other spectators that watched our event, I’m pretty confident that I want to empower myself and join the Bravehearts of Toyohashi. That’s why I will be ready to show my blessings to you and your friends from that braveheart group, so that I will make myself earned for sure!” said Kaguya.

“Well, if you can apply your full membership to be part of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi, then I will help you. How’s that sound?” said Yoshimi.

“Sure, I would be glad to!” said Kaguya.

“That’s the spirit! I’m going to have your proposal to Harunobu one day, so that you will be delighted to become part of my family of bravehearts” said Yoshimi.

“Okay, Yoshimi-san! I won’t let you down!” said Kaguya.

“Yeah!” said Yoshimi.

“So, are you ready for this conversation?” asked Mieko.

“We asked you guys if you’re ready to see this” said Kazukuni.

“Yeah!” said the friends and allies of Yoshimi.

“Great! Now that’s more I like it!” said Kazukuni.

“They’re ready now, Yoshimi-san!” said Mieko.

“Thanks, Mieko-san! Now, let’s get this conversation on the road!” said Yoshimi.

“Okay!” said the friends and allies of Yoshimi as the conversation about the future of the Hanei Quartzes begins.

Yoshimi introduces the conversation about the extended group system. “So, what I heard from Harunobu, the extended group system had been known for the unity between one member of a braveheart group and his/her allies that they want to represent for them without hesitation. He said that this type of friend system had been existed last year with many braveheart groups in Kyushu and its close areas such as Yamaguchi, Hiroshima and Okinawa have created those as a purpose of prospering their communities for the better and brighter future of everyone on their side because they want to bless and inspire them with their pride, courage and willpower. That’s why he told me and my fellow groupmates that creating an extended group, which is also known as the circle of friends, would benefit us to have our blessings growing for more and allowing our communities to shine brighter with fantastic activities that will make everyone more thrilled and motivated, so that they will be able to get involved in making our community in Toyohashi bring full of hopes and dreams to take up with.”

“The extended group system had been dominant in most cities from the western and southern Japan, depends on the population and the geographical representation” said Mieko.

“The five braveheart groups in Fukuoka, heralded by the Bravehearts of Fukuoka, became the first groups to form their extended groups last summer” said Kazukuni.

“Then, it would be followed by cities around Kyushu and Okinawa” said Nanami.

“Before it had been expanded to Chugoku and parts of Kansai and Shikoku” said Eiichi.

“By the time, it’s already spring, the extended groups have covered most of the western parts of our country, but this is just the beginning of it” said Kazumasa Harada.

“Later, when the Bravehearts of Ōta had started to create their extended groups through four mainstream groups, the presence of the extended groups in the eastern part of the country had started to rise just a little, but eventually, many cities have started to work on creating those, so that they want to follow the examples of what the cities in the western part of our country have done, so that they will be able to prosper and bloom the community one way to another” said Akiyo Takiyama.

“There are a lot of connections in Fukuoka when it comes to the presence of notable bravehearts such as Kazuhiro Hatakenaka of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka, Masanori Yasukawa of the Bravehearts of Hakata, Tōru Matsushima of the Bravehearts of Minami Fukuoka, Takahiro Nishizawa of the Bravehearts of Sawara and Akihisa Miyazawa of the Bravehearts of Nishi Fukuoka” said Shinichi Nakazato.

“Which results to the creation of the extended groups that are coming from some cities in Honshu just like how Akiyo said earlier when the Bravehearts of Ōta have started to form those, thanks to Subaru Hasegawa, who was a close friend of Kazuhiro” said Ayumi Yoshikawa.

“Nowadays, the extended groups have been used to make the bravehearts more blessed and inspired, so that they will be able to make the difference with them to show how it’s done through their smiles and joys” said Manaka Koshikawa.

“With the presence in the east had been started to grow, it seems that there will be a lot of blessings to witness, especially that they have their own wisdom to show their pride, courage and willpower” said Daisuke Sakurano, who is a relative of Nanako and Haruya Sakurano.

“Hopefully, they will get used to it, so that they will be able to make the community being full of blessings with brighter ideas that they want to fascinate everyone” said Kazunori Umetsu.

“This is very interesting! I would be more confident that there will be many groups that they want to prosper with that, so that they will be able to make the community getting more attention to shine” said Kiyoka.

“It’s going to be awesome that there will be extended groups here in Toyohashi since they are more confident enough to prosper themselves in their own way” said Shiki.

“I have to say that this city needs to shine with the extended groups that they will have if they want to step up and rise” said Kimio.

“So that, it will be magnificent that they will have their own future to make” said Risako.

“Exactly, I agree with that, guys! Harunobu had a meeting about this last night with me and my fellow bravehearts about what to plan for the extended groups in Toyohashi. We agreed on his plan where each of us will form our very extended groups at any week, depends on the number of allies being interested to take part of it. In my side, you guys have easily accepted it after we did an online chat last night” said Yoshimi.

“Yeah! We’re very interested on that idea when we talked about the meeting with your fellow friends out there!” said Kiyoka.

“We believe that the extended group system will help us grow our friendship with you” said Shiki.

“And since we’re all neighbors at the same time…” said Kimio.

“…we can work together to make sure that we’ll be able to make our community being blessed and inspired” said Risako.

“I have to say that your friend Harunobu had been a great job in making decisions about the plans for the extended group system because we believe that we want to be more confident in making our community shining with our own ideas that we have” said Shigemasa Kosugi, a first year middle school student from the Hada Middle School and a close friend of Yoshimi Fujino.

“I would be honest if we can build our own circle with your brighter ideas, Yoshimi-san, because you had been a great friend to us and we always like the way you prospered everyone in your side” said Tatsuya Minazuki, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Hanei Elementary School and a close friend of Yoshimi Fujino.

“That will make each one of us very thrilled and delighted that we’ll have a very close friendship to you” said Kaede Himesaki, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Fukuoka Elementary School and a close friend of Yoshimi Fujino.

“I’m sure that you and the other bravehearts will be ready to engage for a better change, so that you will bless and prosper for more” said Kaho Sasaki, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a close friend of Yoshimi Fujino.

“If we can do this together, then we will be able to create our future that can prosper our community with better hopes and dreams” said Takuma Ishidate, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Hanei Elementary School and a close friend of Yoshimi Fujino.

“By the end of the day, they will be inspiring us for sure” said Ayami Kamikita, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Hanei Elementary School and a close friend of Yoshimi Fujino.

“Yes, indeed, guys!” said Yoshimi. “That’s why I will be announcing this in front of you all that I will name my circle of friends known as the Hanequa Spear, which will be composed of my close friends and the groups that are coming from Hanei and Hacchō with their main color is red.”

“That’s a cool name out there, Yoshimi-chan!” said Kiyoka.

“I like that one!” said Shiki.

“I’m down with that name!” said Kimio.

“That name is a combination word of both ‘Hanei’ and ‘quartz’, which is very cool!” said Risako.

“That is stupendous!” said Shigemasa.

“I have to say that this name would be good to represent for your side” said Tatsuya.

“It will be fantastic that you’re gonna use that name to recognize us as friends and allies for a braveheart like you” said Kaede.

“I’m very fascinated with that name, which means that I will be thrilled that you’re gonna use that name to make your circle of friends being more passionate” said Kaho.

“We should be more determined and vigilant if we want to be more prospered to represent that for you, Yoshimi-san” said Takuma.

“That way, we will be ready to show how it’s done by running that group for sure!” said Ayami.

“Well, you like that name, guys!” said Yoshimi.

“Yeah!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

Yoshimi would ask her friends from the Hanei Quartzes if they’re interested on that name. “What about you, guys? Did you like the name of my new circle of friends?”

“I like that name, Yoshimi-san!” said Mieko.

“It’s good that you combine the name of ‘Hanei’ and ‘quartz’” said Kazukuni.

“I’m okay with that one because it’s awesome!” said Nanami.

“Yeah, me too! I’m fascinated with that name!” said Eiichi.

“I pretty like that name because we should be bolder to represent that!” said Kazumasa.

“That name is so good! That will make us more comfortable to show that we’re gonna this circle of friends” said Akiyo.

“I have no problem on this one, Yoshimi-san, because I’m approved with that one!” said Shinichi.

“Not bad to name your circle of friends, Yoshimi-san. It would be awesome to name it the ‘Igniting Quartz’, but the ‘Hanequa Spear’ is fine with me too!” said Ayumi.

“I say that it’s good to name that group because it’s all about our way to prosper our community in Hanei and Hacchō” said Manaka.

“That’s good!” said Yoshimi while giving her friends a smile before asking her other close friends if they like the name of Hanequa Spear for her circle of friends. “Hey, do you like the name of Hanequa Spear?”

“Yeah!” said Yuki, Yasuya, Yūko, Taiyō, Kuriko, Kaguya, Shunichi, Daiki and Maya.

“I like this name, sister!” said Yuki.

“No doubt about it!” said Yasuya.

“I’m happily accepting it!” said Yūko.

“Count that name, Yoshimi-san!” said Taiyō.

“That name was so blooming!” said Kuriko.

“That’s a very nice name of your circle of friends, Yoshimi-san!” Kaguya.

“I would be fascinated that you can name that group is more focused on your representation” said Shunichi.

“Sounds like this name is more like determination and brave” said Daiki.

“Yeah, I can agree with that, Daiki-san. That name was beautiful! We never heard about that name before, but I’m pretty glad that this one would be good to represent us” said Maya.

“That’s great, guys! Since you have approved that name, then it will be more exciting that you’re all set to represent our circle of friends for community to shine. Right, everyone?” said Yoshimi.

“Yeah!” said the friends and allies of Yoshimi.

“Now, let’s move on to the structure of my circle of friends” said Yoshimi as she declares the next topic on the introduction to her new circle of friends. “The Hanequa Spear will be divided into two groups: the Blaze Division, which will be composed of the members that are very close to me, and the Stealth Division, which will be composed of the members that are coming from Hanei and Hacchō, but they’re more acquaintances. On the other hand, those that are coming from my family, especially my relatives, can also join the Blaze Division while their allies will end up joining the Stealth Division.”

“That’s a good format of how your group would be like, Yoshimi-san, but I have a question. If someone is not coming from either Hanei or Hacchō, what group they will join?” said Kiyoka.

“They will automatically join the Stealth Division unless if any of their members have been friends to either me or any from the Blaze Division” said Yoshimi.

“Ah, I see. This may be different, but I would say that it will be interesting if they will become close to us” said Kiyoka.

“That way, they will be more confident to show that they’re here to represent for you” said Shiki.

“That’s correct. It will be different to state whether they’re closed to me or just an acquaintance, but the purpose of this is to balance that by forming two divisions” said Yoshimi.

“We’ll be planning to expand this to create one or more division if there will be more members that are coming from the Stealth Division” said Mieko.

“The members of the Blaze Division will be coordinating on this, so that they will address on what to do with it if there’s a situation like a conflict or something that they want to make it fair” said Kazukuni.

“You got that right, Kazukuni-san! We want to make sure that the two groups will be good enough to have their own members to represent” said Taiyō.

“But sometimes, there are some members who wanted to represent of their own” said Kuriko.

“For example, some friends of Kaguya may want to form their own group because not only that they were very close to her, but they are indeed getting a very deep friendship with Yoshimi and her friends” said Yuki.

“So, we could work on that, so that they will have their own to represent if they want to be more prospered enough to bless and inspire us” said Yasuya.

“For now, there will be two groups at the start, but later on, it will soon to be expanded with more members and groups to join the Hanequa Spear” said Yūko.

“Another question, Yoshimi-san. What if we have new members that are associated to your friends in the Bravehearts of Toyohashi?” said Kimio.

“That’s another good that I can answer that! For this kind of situation like this, we can create a special division for them as a purpose of representing for me and any of my fellow bravehearts. Also, they won’t be part of the Stealth Division, I’m afraid” said Yoshimi.

“Oh, okay, I understand that. At least that they will have their own group to assemble that will represent not only you…” said Kimio.

“…but your friends from your braveheart group” said Risako.

“So that, there will be no more conflicts between them and those who were just acquaintances for sure!” said Shigemasa.

“Yeah, you got that right, guys! That’s why we will be grateful that we will have many divisions in my circle of friends because they’ll have their own stuff to prioritize with and they will finally have their own assignments and missions to get on with” said Yoshimi.

“For the other groups, they’re planning to create at least 2 or 3 groups, so that they will have their own group assignment to assemble with” said Mieko.

“According to how the extended group system works, the main division of one’s extended group will be those that are very close to a braveheart” said Kazukuni.

“While the other divisions will be represented by various groups” said Nanami.

“The most priority of this will be the groups that their main color is depends on the image color of one’s braveheart” said Eiichi.

“The rest will be based on how they will represent with through their own choices through two things” said Kazumasa.

“Color…” said Akiyo.

“…or geographical location” said Shinichi.

“So, whether you are an acquaintance or a close friend of a braveheart, you have your own division to represent with” said Ayumi.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“Now, it’s time to move on to the fun part: the planned activities” said Mieko.

“That’s right, Mieko-san! In case you miss it, we organized an activity yesterday at the garden in the Hoshikawa Residence where we taught our friends about karate and kendo before organizing a kendo tournament, which is won by my cousin Taiyō” said Yoshimi.

“It was a good activity where all of us have been able to show our strength and stamina, proving that we’re good at those” said Kazukuni.

“It had been paid off and of course, we’re all blessed and inspired by the end of the day” said Kaguya.

“And so, we want to be more involved in making our community getting brighter” said Nanami.

“By organizing some bigger activities to make everyone in Hanei and Hacchō getting their attention to come along with us” said Eiichi.

“There are some planned activities that we will plan on in a few weeks, especially that we will be ready to help the community to grow with our blessings that we have” said Yuki.

“Most of them will be more related to community service” said Yasuya.

“While the others will be focused on other things such as hobbies and out-of-town activities” said Yūko.

“We will also include some family-oriented activities” said Taiyō.

“As well as birthday celebrations and big gatherings that were organized by any of us” said Kuriko.

“So, for our first planned activity, we will be doing a small business activity where we will be selling some grilled foods to everyone” said Yoshimi.

“Our relatives have their business that sold grilled chicken and meat to their neighbors in Fukuoka and so, we want to do the same thing by selling those to just a cheaper price” said Yuki.

“That’s why we will be planning to buy some chicken and meat first before we’ll be cooking those into the grill” said Yasuya.

“Then, we will be selling those, so that we will have some money to profit with” said Yūko.

“That’s a good idea, guys! Selling some grilled foods to the community is a good idea that we will make the community more blessed because it’s good to give and take everything to everyone like you’re treating them” said Kiyoka.

“I say that it’s a good idea to make that because I love to give people some blessings by using the gratitude that we want them to be comfortable and delighted” said Shiki.

“Doing a great small business drive would allow us to excel in making some progress to make the community even developed” said Kimio.

“That way, they will be able to inspire us through their smiles” said Risako.

“Yeah, you got that right! We’ll be planning to organize this by the following month before the exam week, so that we will have some great time to prepare, so that we will start working on this for sure!” said Yoshimi.

“Yeah!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“We’re ready for this, Yoshimi-chan!” said Kiyoka.

“Yeah, we should be very prepared to do this!” said Shiki.

“Our community needs us!” said Kimio.

“It’s going to be great that we will work together as a big group!” said Risako.

“You can count on us!” said Shigemasa.

“Me too! I want to contribute for everyone in Hanei and Hacchō!” said Tatsuya.

“I will be happy to take part of this, Yoshimi-san!” said Kaede.

“Yeah! We should be ready to shine our community like the way you used to for your friends!” said Kaho.

“It will be awesome that we will have that drive to give and take for progress in our profit” said Takuma.

“So that, we will use those for future purposes that we need if we can afford something good” said Ayami.

“Yeah, you got it, guys! It’s going to be great that we should prepare on selling foods to everyone, so that they will be able to bless us” said Yoshimi.

“Hopefully, we will be able to get enough money to profit, so that we will be able to do whatever we want, but we have to save our money for other needs” said Mieko.

“Yeah!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“The second planned activity will be very interesting as we will organize an exercise activity combining with some training to prepare ourselves for the upcoming sports festival” said Yoshimi.

“The sports festival in Toyohashi, which will be organized by several schools in all levels, will take place on May 29 (Saturday)” said Mieko.

“Which will be about three weeks away from now” said Kazukuni.

“So, if we want to be more prepared in representing ourselves for the upcoming sports festival, we should work out together on a weekend activity where we will be doing some exercise like jogging and running, so that we will be able to prepare ourselves for that upcoming event” said Nanami.

“However, it will be a pain to do this during the mid-term exam week, which will be held from May 24 to 28” said Eiichi.

“And so, we need to organize this on both May 27 and 28 in the afternoon, so that we will be able to get worked out and good to go for the sports festival” said Kazumasa.

“Ah, this is good! I can’t wait for that event because we should be good to shine ourselves!” said Kiyoka.

“I love exercises, guys! My family had used to do that every Sunday morning” said Shiki.

“It will be amazing that we should do this together!” said Kimio.

“So that, we’ll stay strong and formidable when we’re participating at the activities in the sports festival” said Risako.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Yoshimi and her friends from the Hanei Quartzes.

“The exercise activity will be more of a warm-up activity, so that we will be able to do our best in showing our guts to show up while representing your team during the sports festival” said Yoshimi.

“The sports festival will be organized into different activities from ball games to relay games” said Akiyo.

“Everyone will participate at those activities, so that they will be able to shine their way with their auras and prove that they’re good at those” said Shinichi.

“The schedule will be varied from morning to afternoon with different activities have been listed including the places that you have to visit when you’re going to participate at one activity to another” said Ayumi.

“The sports festival will be more of a special day for everyone because they should be ready to do whatever it takes to shine and they’ll be more confident to show how it’s done” said Manaka.

“So that, they will get themselves earned with the victory for sure” said Daisuke.

“Not all activities will be easy to get, but it’s going to be more interesting to see how strength and stamina you have” said Kazunori.

“And so, you will have to be more prepared if you want to be the best for your team” said Junko Hiramoto.

“Yeah, we should!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“By the way, since I’m the President of the Ōmihara Gakuen High School Student Council, we will be coordinating with this, so that you guys will be more prepared to make yourself strong and healthy for the upcoming sports festival” said Taiyō.

“We will be ready to organize a few activities that will make everyone in this circle of friends getting prepared for the sports festival” said Kuriko.

“Not only for the exercises, but we will also train for some activities that will take place in that event” said Kaguya.

“Especially there will be some ball games to compete with” said Shunichi.

“That’s why it’s going to be awesome that you will prepare for this because it will make your life more easier” said Daisuke.

“And you’re all good to go to compete for the sports festival with your aura and smile” said Maya.

“Yeah, we will!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“We will be updating this for a few weeks before the actual schedule, so that you will be able to get informed on what the activities for the two days of exercise and training would be like” said Yoshimi.

“For now, we should all attend some P.E. classes every week, so that you will be able to work hard in making yourself strong and healthy” said Mieko.

“So that, you’ll be ready to step up and shine for our circle of friends” said Kazukuni.

“Yeah, we will!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“Now, the last planned activity that will be discussing is going to be the general assembly for our circle of friends, which will be held by early June” said Yoshimi.

“The general assembly for the Hanequa Spear will take place on either June 12 or 13” said Yuki.

“Which means that it will be a great way to start running with us” said Yasuya.

“And you’re all here to shine for us because this is our circle of friends that runs our community” said Yūko.

“Yeah!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“Oh, this is so exciting!” said Kiyoka.

“I’m hyped for this!” said Shiki.

“We’re looking forward to participate in that event!” sid Kimio.

“This is going to be good!” said Risako.

“Hey, that one would be the best to represent for your circle of friends!” said Shigemasa.

“I can count on that!” said Tatsuya.

“Oh, I can’t wait to see this because we will have a lot of allies to team up with us!” said Kaede.

“It will be so amazing that we will have a lot of blessings to give because if we have a lot of allies coming out to represent for us, they’ll be ready to get themselves earned” said Kaho.

“Since we’re a group of friends and allies that we want to make the difference for our community to shine, we should be ready to make them blessed and inspired” said Takuma.

“So that, they’ll be here to believe us for sure!” said Ayami.

“Exactly, you’re right, guys! The general assembly will not only be welcomed by everyone on my side whether you’re a member of the Hanei Quartzes or a close friend of mind, but it will be so nice that our allies will be coming out to join with us as well!” said Yoshimi.

“In order to make this happen, we should have many members to join our circle of friends before organizing this event, so that we will be able to make big moments to treasure with” said Mieko.

“It’s going to be great that we’re all here to show our pride, courage and willpower for our group to run beautifully” said Kazukuni.

“That’s why we will be ready to gleam and dazzle with everyone in this circle of friends, so that we’re all set to shine this fantastic event” said Nanami.

“Yeah!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“The plans for the general assembly will be revealed in a few weeks once we have a lot of new members to join our circle of friends” said Yoshimi.

“So that, we will be doing some orientation type of meeting that we will be discussing about one day” said Mieko.

“Also, by the way, guys, the general assembly will not be complete if we will be inviting some adults to join, so that it will be more interesting for this event to be more blooming and livelier” said Taiyō.

“We’re looking forward to invite some of them if we want to, but we’re not sure on who will be attending because some might have their reasons of not attending this event” said Kuriko.

“So, we will have to wait until it reaches about one week before the actual schedule to start inviting them” said Kaguya.

“That way, they will have their chance if they’re interested to come along with us or not” said Shunichi.

“The bottom line is that we will be more prepared to have many guests to attend this wonderful event, so that we’re gonna have so much fun to work with” said Yuki.

“Everyone will be obliged to attend this if they have the desire to represent for our sister” said Yasuya.

“So that, we will be able to make this event more special that you will never forget!” said Yūko.

“Yeah, for sure!” said the members of the Hanei Quartzes and the close friends of Yoshimi.

“We’ll be updating this once we have a lot of allies having their opportunity to join our circle of friends for sure” said Yoshimi.

“Yeah!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“It feels great that we have started our own progress to make sure that we’ll be making this group now running with our auras” said Yoshimi.

“And it will be amazing that you’re all here to shine for our community to grow” said Kaguya.

“This is just the beginning of our new life in a circle of friends, but hopefully, we’ll be ready to make the difference to show that we’re here to gleam and dazzle” said Mieko.

“So that, we’ll be motivated that we have our brighter future in our hands” said Kazukuni.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the close friends of Yoshimi.

“Now, let’s have some fun by playing some board games while enjoying this day!” said Yoshimi.

“Yeah!” said the friends and allies of Yoshimi. The Hanei Quartzes have finally formed their extended group known as the Hanequa Spear as it will be composed of the close friends of Yoshimi and the groups that are coming from Hanei and Hacchō that their main color is red. Yoshimi had been determined that she will have many allies on her side, so that they will be here to bless and inspire her, which means that she will always thrill with them whenever they’ll be getting along with each other, so that they will shine their community growing with their blessings through their auras and smiles.

UP NEXT: Red Section-Chapter 97: “One Red Diamond Shines the Brightest” [Milestone of 100 Updates in a Side Volume]

Before I’ll wrap it up for today, I had some good news to everyone! First up, I had finished the draft of the sixth omake last December 3 (Sunday), which means that it’ll be ready to be posted on December 26 (Sunday), which will be three weeks from now!:D It’s so nice that I have finished that omake in five days and it felt good for me to get it done! Now the only thing that I’m going to do for that one is to make some edits if I want to make it more sparkling and more shining because this is what the omake in Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts does where you’re gonna see some surprises and secrets out that you have never seen before or something intrigues you the most. I hope that you’re all excited for this, but we still have three more weeks left to wait for this omake to be posted!:D Hopefully, by the time it reaches Christmastime, it’s time for me to post this to make it more special to celebrate Christmas with this wonderful omake for sure!:) Another good news is that we’re four updates away from reaching 100 side chapters of a side series! It’s so nice that the Red Section Series had continued to progress, but we still have few updates away to make this happen and of course, you’ll be motivated to see more of it when these will be posted in a few days!;) Of course, I want to end the year 2021 by reaching 100 side chapters of a side series, but not only with that, I want the Red Section Series making more history to get milestones, especially the 100 updates in a side volume. Since this series is the second part of Volume 8.5, it’s going to be different than “Emiri and the Bravehearts of Toyohashi”, which they only have 13 updates, but of course, it will become the second-longest running volume after Volume 8, which was finished last year and lasted for 13 months. Hopefully, by the time it reaches the year 2022, it will make history to make Volume 8.5 the longest running volume in this series as I have already made drafts for the future updates to come!;) Hopefully, you’re all riding with me to make Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts blooming and prosperous and so, get ready to witness the new characters and groups to appear in every new update of this prosperous volume because you’ll be here to bless and inspire everyone!:)

Yoshimi and her friends from her side including the Hanei Quartzes and her close friends would finally form the Hanequa Spear as this group will be the extended group of the Hanei Quartzes that are composed of them and their allies including the close friends of Yoshimi and the groups that are coming from Hanei and Hacchō with their main color is red. Yoshimi had been very determined to have allies on her side to make sure that they’ll be able to shine with her and her friends when they’re working together to bloom their community with better hopes and blissful dreams. As a member of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi, Yoshimi will always be ready to show her pride and willpower with her friends because she’ll groove her way with her smile and not gonna let them down through the bottom of her heart.:) Now there are two members of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi that have sported their hairs being red, which are Sayumi Moriyama and Yoshimi Fujino. The difference is that Sayumi’s red hair is darker than Yoshimi’s and so, it’ll be different to compare them since they have gotten along with each other last time in the finale of “Emiri and the Bravehearts of Toyohashi” as they’ll always shine their way to bless and prosper their community in Toyohashi with hopes and dreams to be made.;) Of course, speaking of Sayumi, the next update will be focused on her and her friends from the Red Diamond Victory as they’ll be meeting with Miho Ōsuga at Sayumi’s home, the Moriyama Residence, in Kitayama. They’ll be discussing different topics that related to student politics and idols and it’s going to be blooming to witness this because you’re going to explore everything in their roundtable conversation, which means you’ll be ready to see what’s inside about it.:D Hopefully, you’re excited to see this because it’ll be another update that is related to the members of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi and hopefully, you’re all here to gleam and shine with them for sure!:) I’ll see you on December 8 (Wednesday) for the next update of Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts!

LATER TONIGHT: A Special Message from Mia Taylor
 
A Special Message from Mia Taylor

Hi, everyone! My name is Mia Taylor of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I’m here to tell you something blooming because tomorrow will be my birthday, which will be on December 6 (Monday), and of course, you’re all here to gleam and shine with me on that day, so that I’ll be cherished to give you a smile that you’ll need to shine yourself! It feels great that I had been a member of NijiGaku after the recent events of Love Live! School Idol Festival All Stars, which means that I’ll be able to represent for them with my voice as I’ll be ready to make progress of my school idol career for sure! Now, in case you’re wondering why I’m here is because I became very confident to meet friends in the Nijigasaki Academy High School, especially that I’m advanced in age, which my age right now is 14. I was entrusted by Lanzhu Zhong, who invited me to enroll at the Nijigasaki Academy, thus our friendship had been doing well since then, even we joined NijiGaku together. It feels great that Lanzhu is very compassionated to give me a smile, so that I’ll be able to make some thrills to make her happy as well! Also, I had been friends with Rina Tennōji when she gave me some courage to make my own song, “I’m Still”, and I became confident to be a school idol after I was impressed by Rina and my other friends in NijiGaku. I kept my friendship with Lanzhu and Rina while I continued to be more enthusiastic to make sure that I’ll be ready to take part of NijiGaku after I was flanked by the members of that school idol club. Of course, you have grown my blessings to make sure that I’ll not let myself down, which means that I’m happy for you! Anyway, the month of December will be full of enthusiasm and compassion where winter is almost approaching as well as celebrating Christmas all over the world. I had a plan about going back to my hometown in New York City, but I would be better if I will be staying in Tokyo because I don’t want to miss my fellow club members as they’re part of my ‘family’. As an enthusiastic school idol, I’m ready to do whatever it takes to show my compassionating smile and groom my school idol career for sure! I’m still delighted to make thrills to everyone because it’s my way to groom myself, so that they’ll be able to see me groom while performing for NijiGaku, which I’ll be happy if you can do it through your pure heart. Hopefully, you’re always cheering for me with your smile as me and my fellow club members are ready to shine through our auras, so that you’ll be very thrilled to perform just for you! If you can do it through your enthusiasm, then step up and shine in a gleaming way! Until then, I’ll see you next time when a future update will be featuring me and my fellow club members of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and be responsible when guiding yourself to be shined, everyone!
- Mia Taylor (CV. Shū Uchida)
 
Hi, everyone! Right now, I'm not very happy with the view count after I had posted my previous update and it's not looking great that it's been lowered again due to another user posting its current update on his thread a few minutes later.:( So, I decided that it will be a great time to recommend you to read the previous update, which was focused on Yoshimi Fujino, a member of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi, and her friends including those from the Hanei Quartzes, before or after reading today's update. It will be amazing if this view count will continue rolling, but hopefully, it's going to be better if this series will continue to shine!:) Of course, it's almost the end of the year 2021 with four weeks remaining and I hope that things will get better for this month to make Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts rolling again as there will be special updates to come once it reaches Christmastime.:) On the other hand, we're 4 updates away from reaching 100 side chapters of the Red Section Series and hopefully, it's going to be amazing that you're all here because today's update will be something special to gleam and dive!;) Get ready because here comes today's update featuring another member of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi in Sayumi Moriyama and her friends from her group, the Red Diamond Victory!:)

The next update of the Red Section Series will be focused on another red-colored group in Toyohashi as this time, it will be the Red Diamond Victory as they will be joined by Sayumi Moriyama, a member of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi, where they will be getting along with each other at the Moriyama Residence before being joined by her guests, composed of Miho Ōsuga and her siblings, Michinori and Maria. They will be having a roundtable conversation to discuss about different topics including the fictional Toyohashi Idol Council. You already know about the idol democracy, which I wrote that last year, and posted two updates that are related to it: Red Section-Chapter 7 (focused on Maki Nishkino’s world of idol democracy) and Red Section-Chapter 20 (focused on Setsuna Yūki’s world of idol democracy). Of course, I want to have another one for a long time after the two and so, it will be awesome to see what the Toyohashi Idol Council would be like and how does it work out. But before you’ll read this update, it’s been an honor for every reader of Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts because this update will be reaching the milestone of 100 updates in a side volume, which also includes omakes and special updates (not counted the supplementary post about idol democracy), which means that Red Section Series of the Volume 8.5 will become the second longest-running volume in history behind Volume 8, which lasted for 13 months!:D It’s so awesome that I can keep it up, despite the COVID-19 pandemic has not end yet due to the resurging cases (including the Omicron variant) in some countries all over the world, specifically Africa.:( Hopefully, I might have a plan on posting updates of Volume 9 by at least 2023, but it depends on the ideas that I have for the future drafts of this side series.;) It’s so fantastic to have another milestone in Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts and I hope that it’ll continue to flourish with new updates coming to their way in a few days to come!:) Now, with that said, get ready to see a lot of things to explore in their conversation as it will be a fantastic conversation to watch out with! So, if you’re ready to gleam and dive with Sayumi and her friends, then you’re in luck because here comes the 97th side chapter of the Red Section Series with the title, “One Red Diamond Shines the Brightest”! Enjoy reading the 97th side chapter of the Red Section Series!:)

SIDE STORY: “RED SECTION STORIES
CHAPTER 97: “ONE RED DIAMOND SHINES THE BRIGHTEST

Date: May 5, 2010 (Wednesday)

This side story is focused on Sayumi Moriyama and her group, the Red Diamond Victory, as they are hanging out with Miho Ōsuga, a friend of Mitsuki Fukaya, who in turn a close friend of Setsuna Yūki of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, at the Moriyama Residence on the final day of the Golden Week break.

At the Moriyama Residence in Kitayama, Sayumi and her friends from the Red Diamond Victory are making their decorations for the room overhaul of the homeplace of the Red Diamond Victory, which is located a few miles away from Sayumi’s home.

Red Diamond Victory: Chiaki Katō, Mitsuhisa Nakamura, Natsumi Yoshizawa, Haruna Kasamatsu, Shōjirō Suzuki, Kai Arakawa, Tomoyo Enomoto, Issei Kameoka, Chiyako Kuroki, Takanori Ichinose, Mayako Sasahara, Kōsuke Nogawa, Fuyumi Miyaichi, Natsuhiko Morimoto and Aya Kumazaki

“What do you think, girls?” asked Chiaki Katō, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and the leader of the Red Diamond Victory. She’s also the cousin of Yume Katō, a member of the Bravehearts of Numazu.

“It’s pretty nice out there, Chiaki-chan!” said Sayumi.

“That one is good!” said Mitsuhisa Nakamura, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“I like it, Chiaki-san!” said Natsumi Yoshizawa, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“That’s very cool!” said Haruna Kasamatsu, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“It’s fantastic!” said Shōjirō Suzuki, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“This is so magnificent!” said Kai Arakawa, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“Hey, that would be awesome to put that in our home!” said Tomoyo Enomoto, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“Yeah, we could use those as a design for our own rooms” said Issei Kameoka, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“So that, it will shine bright at night!” said Chiyako Kuroki, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“That would be amazing that this one would be luminous all night!” said Aya Kumazaki, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“Yep! We could light it up when it’s nighttime, so that it will glow and shine like a diamond. Of course, we will be grateful that we will use those to have a comfortable night while sleeping. Isn’t that right, guys?” said Chiaki.

“Yeah!” said Sayumi and the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“I can use those for my own room at the Hoshikawa Residence where I have so many bright lights that I have used while sleeping at night” said Sayumi.

“Yes, you can, Sayumi-chan! Of course, you’re a close friend of mine!” said Chiaki.

“Yeah, I agree with that for more, Chiaki-chan!” said Sayumi.

“You know, Sayumi-san, you and Chiaki have been very close with each other ever since you two were very little” said Mitsuhisa.

“And I’m so glad that your friendship had been continued to develop, thanks to us being part of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi as members of the Red Diamond Victory” said Natsumi.

“Yes, indeed! Ever since I had joined the Bravehearts of Toyohashi, I finally made up this idea where Chiaki and her friends will be part of the hierarchy of that group as I made the Red Diamond Victory a mainstream group, so that you will be able to represent for me through your pride and comfortable heart” said Sayumi.

“Yes, we are!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“I have been motivated that we’re all part of that family and hopefully, we will keep this up to make sure that we’re all prospered enough to make our smiles more comfortable” said Chiaki.

“It will be amazing that you’re all here to shine for me, so that I will always bless you with your smile. You’ll be delighted that you’re gonna be motivated enough to me feel better” said Sayumi.

“Yeah, we will!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“So, you said earlier that there will be a guest coming to your home. Isn’t that right, Sayumi-san?” said Haruna.

“Yep! My older sister Sumika said that a friend of Mitsuki Fukaya named Miho Ōsuga will be coming to our home because they have known with each other since our first year in middle school and of course, she wanted to ask Miho to visit our home, so that she will be able to develop her friendship with me and my older sister” said Sayumi. Sumika Moriyama is a first year high school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen High School and the older sister of Sayumi Moriyama while Miho Ōsuga is also a first year high school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen High School and a friend of Sumika Moriyama and Mitsuki Fukaya. The latter is a close friend of Setsuna Yūki, a member of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club.

“Ah, that’s very interesting! I can’t believe that there will be a new person in our home to come along with us!” said Haruna.

“Man, I’m getting about this!” said Shōjirō.

“I’m so surprised that this girl will be here to pay a visit right here” said Kai.

“It’s going to be amazing that we’re gonna have a great day to have a visitor in her to cap off the Golden Week” said Tomoyo.

“Because tomorrow will be the resumption of our classes” said Issei.

“Hopefully, we will be able to go back in working on our studies” said Chiyako.

“So that, we will be able to pass those in flying colors” said Aya.

“Yeah, of course! Hopefully, we will have so much fun to make this day blooming while capping off the Golden Week, so that we’re all prospered enough to make us feel delighted and uplifted” said Sayumi.

“We will keep our excitement out there, so that we’re all good!” said Chiaki.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

A few seconds later, a doorbell had been rung with someone pressed it. Sumika would appear from the kitchen before being joined by Sayumi to see who is coming to their home. Sumika opens the door and it was revealed to be Miho Ōsuga, who will be joined by her siblings, Michinori and Maria. Michinori is a third year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School while Maria is a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School.

“Hi, Sumika-san! Hi, Sayumi-san!” said Miho Ōsuga.

“Oh, if isn’t Miho-san! I’m so glad that you’re here to pay a visit in our home!” said Sumika.

“I’m happy that you’re all here!” said Sayumi.

“Yes, we are!” said Miho, Michinori and Maria.

“So, have your parents accepted to leave your home just to visit our home?” asked Sumika.

“Yeah!” said Miho, Michinori and Maria.

“My mother Mao had accepted our request to go out for today and we were able to locate your address” said Miho.

“Which is almost a kilometer away from our home” said Michinori Ōsuga, the younger brother of Miho Ōsuga.

“Hopefully, we will be happy to get along with you today!” said Maria Ōsuga, the younger sister of Miho Ōsuga.

“Of course, you can, guys! Sayumi’s friends were there too! You can play with them whatever you want!” said Sumika.

“There’s a personal court located at the terrace if you want to play one-on-one with me” said Sayumi.

“Sure, we would be glad to!” said Miho, Michinori and Maria.

“Now, shall we meet our friends from my group?” asked Sayumi.

“Okay!” said Miho, Michinori and Maria.

When Miho, Michinori and Maria have entered the Moriyama Residence, they would be surprised that the friends of Sayumi are all present.

Sayumi would introduce Miho, Michinori and Maria to her friends from the Red Diamond Victory. “Everyone, this is Miho Ōsuga, a good friend of my sister Sumika. Miho, these are my friends from my group, the Red Diamond Victory, composed of its leader Chiaki Katō, Mitsuhisa Nakamura, Natsumi Yoshizawa, Haruna Kasamatsu, Shōjirō Suzuki, Kai Arakawa, Tomoyo Enomoto, Issei Kameoka, Chiyako Kuroki, Takanori Ichinose, Mayako Sasahara, Kōsuke Nogawa, Fuyumi Miyaichi, Natsuhiko Morimoto and Aya Kumazaki.”

“Hi, guys!” said Miho, Michinori and Maria.

“Hi!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“They will be here for just a day as they wanted to hang out with us for a while!” said Sayumi.

“Hopefully, we will be delighted to have some fun!” said Miho.

“It will be amazing that you’re gonna thrill with us no matter what!” said Michinori.

“Just leave it to one of us!” said Maria.

“Okay!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

Chiaki would greet Miho by shaking each other’s hands as a sign of respect between them. “I’m very grateful that you’re here, Miho-san! I’m a very close friend of Sayumi and we were very excited about you because we have been very busy in our home, working on our decorations for the rooms in our group’s homeplace. Anyway, I will be happy if you can share anything about your life, so that we will be able to gleam on what you want to share with us.”

“Okay, then, I would be happy to share anything just for everyone! Of course, Sumika and Sayumi will be thrilled to share as well!” said Miho.

“That’s right, Miho-san! We are very determined that we’re going to share about you as well as what we have done before as friends” said Sumika.

“It will be an honor that you’re going to be more comfortable to stay here for just a day, so that we will make our day feeling good to be blooming” said Sayumi.

“Okay!” said Miho, Michinori and Maria.

The roundtable conversation between Sayumi, Sumika, the Red Diamond Victory and the Ōsuga siblings would begin as Miho will be talking about her passion in running her own group, the Red Moon Ascent.

“I started to run a group known as the Red Moon Ascent when I enrolled in Ōmihara Gakuen for middle school. At first, I was a little bit more of a stranger before I finally became friends with my classmates such as Tamami Morikubo, Michiya Kawasaki and Chitose Harada. Then, we have expanded our group with new members coming out to represent for us. Now, we’re very more of a developed group and so, we want to be ready to get involved in helping the community by creating fantastic activities that we want them to get gleamed” said Miho.

“That’s a good group that you have, Miho-san! I’m so fascinated that you made that group, so that you will have them blessed and inspired!” said Chiaki.

“It feels great that you have made them feel comfortable and delighted that they want to be more determined in following you” said Mitsuhisa.

“I have to say that you’re more of a blessed leader, thanks to your determination that had been paid off at all” said Natsumi.

“Yes, I am! The Red Moon Ascent is a group that I want to represent for and I want to be more determined in making my friends feeling comfortable and motivated, so that they will not let me down. I always want to be very determined to my friends on my side because it’s a good way to make them feel comfortable and they would whatever it takes to show their respect and thrill to me without hesitation” said Miho.

“I say that your group is so good!” said Haruna.

“We want to be more motivated if you can invite them to our activities, so that we’ll be able to run like the way we did for our allies” said Shōjirō.

“It will be great that you’re going to have more blessings to earn with” said Kai.

“That way, you’ll be always thrilled to bless us!” said Tomoyo.

“Well, I would be glad to, guys! But one day, you’re all surprised when they’ll be here one day” said Miho.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“One thing about me is that I love to make cheeseburgers because it’s my favorite food and I used to eat those at every weekend, which it tasted good” said Miho.

“Our relatives have their own business of selling cheeseburgers known as the Sizzling Moon” said Michinori.

“We used to visit those once a week to buy some cheeseburgers and it has a lot of flavors to choose from” said Maria.

“Have you ever been there?” asked Miho.

“We haven’t heard about that” said Chiaki.

“Me neither” said Mitsuhisa.

“The only food that we cared about is red miso” said Natsumi.

“Which is our favorite food for our group” said Haruna.

“We would have been awesome if we want to give a taste of red miso cheeseburger” said Shōjirō.

“That would be cool if they’re available in that place” said Kai.

“That way, we will be able to eat those!” said Tomoyo.

“I’m craving at those if you ask me!” said Issei.

“Well, there’s a red miso cheeseburger at our place, so we can order that later on, so that you will be more enjoyed to eat those” said Miho.

“Okay!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“I’m sure that you’ll be more excited about this because red miso is the best in Toyohashi and we have been delighted to eat those everyday” said Sayumi.

“Hopefully, you’ll be thrilled when they’ll be ordering those because it will be good enough to make our day even better” said Sumika.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“By the way, Miho-san, would you care about the idols that you admired the most?” asked Chiyako.

“Oh, sure! I had been friends with Natsuha Arisugawa, a member of Hōkago Climax Girls and 283 Production, because I was so fascinated on her idol works since she had been a dazzling idol for a long time when she was young. I’m always hyped for her whenever she had a performance with her fellow groupmates from Hōkago Climax Girls and that’s why I became so happy that I had a great friend on her” said Miho.

“That’s very nice, Miho-san! I had seen her in PR videos that represented that group!” said Chiyako.

“That cheerful girl had been very determined to show how it’s done to shine with her smile” said Takanori Ichinose, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“I’m always happy to see her when she had been in the stage to make sure that she will perform through her heart” said Mayako Sasahara, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“It’s a great way to see her getting a great career as an idol” said Kōsuke Nogawa, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“And she had been more of a dazzling person because she had always motivate herself to make her idol career being developed for more” said Fuyumi Miyaichi, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“It’s so nice that this girl had been an amazing idol to show up for her group” said Natsuhiko Morimoto, a first year middle school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Red Diamond Victory.

“She’s so confident that she had done that all by herself and so, she had been earned for sure!” said Aya.

“Yes, she was! You’ll be surprised that Natsuha was born in Aichi” said Miho.

“WHAT?!” shouted the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“Yep! Natsuha came from the southern part of Nagoya Metropolis, but raised in Nagoya during her youth” said Miho.

“Oh, I see that point! I never expect that she’s coming from our home prefecture, but I’m cool that she had represented for us!” said Chiyako.

“It’s so nice that we have her as one of the active idols that are born in our hometown” said Takanori.

“She’s so cool that she had blessed us because she believed that her home was full of bigger hopes and dreams” said Mayako.

“It’s safe to say that she had been more adorable to make us feel thrilled when she is representing for her group and she had to do her best to make herself prestigious and admired” said Aya.

“Yep! She’s so nice that she had been an idol who likes to be more of a complex girl with her training and total coordination” said Miho.

“There are other idols that were born in Aichi aside from her” said Michinori.

“They were Tokiko Zaizen, Hitomi Niwa, Nagisa Aino, Chinami Komuro, Midori Mizuno and Matsuri Tokugawa” said Maria.

“Only Matsuri had been more famous, compared to the rest while Chinami Komuro had been transitioned to be a good idol at some time” said Miho.

“Oh, that’s good! I can’t wait to see more idols out there in our hometown, so that they will be able to show their voice that they’re good at it!” said Chiyako.

“It will be amazing that they’re going to make themselves thrilled that they will make progress of their idol careers” said Aya.

“Yeah, they will!” said Miho, Michinori and Maria.

“Also, one thing that you find it very interesting is that I was volunteered to initiate the Toyohashi Idol Council, which was organized by a good friend of mine in Ryōko Yoshizawa, a second year high school student from Ōmihara Gakuen High School, where we played that once in a weekend through chat” said Miho.

“Oh, that sounds interesting to see that, Miho-chan!” said Chiaki.

“I’m so surprised that you were part of that one!” said Mitsuhisa.

“It feels great that you have been ambitious to run that one!” said Natsumi.

“It will be amazing that you will be able to represent your own group in a fantasy way” said Haruna.

“They were a lot of fans and supporters have their own way to put their ideas in bringing good hopes and dreams to shine when you’re running the idol council” said Shōjirō.

“Yes, of course! Our Idol Council is more of a fantasy RPG simulator where we used to insert our names, so that we will be able to take action on who will leading in a virtual world with idols and the other likes are running. Setsuna had introduced me to this when me, Mitsuki and the rest about how the idol council works. In the fictional Toyohashi Idol Council, it had been composed of 223 members with different parties participating to see who had been proving the best when it comes to the platforms of one’s person to another” said Miho.

“That’s very interesting! I’m so glad that you and your friends have been working on that just because you want to run of your own when it comes to another world where idols, fans and producers have run the most” said Chiaki.

“I have to say that you are wore determined to run that council without hesitation because it will be great to let them know your name” said Mitsuhisa.

“So that, one day, you will be more earned enough to lead a council for sure!” said Natsumi.

“Yes, of course!” said Miho.

“Which party has the most seats in the current session?” asked Haruna.

“It was led by the Garnet Democrats with 82 seats, followed by the two other major parties: the Wonderland Party, the party that supported Matsuki Tokugawa, with 74 seats and the Violet Legion with 43 seats” said Miho.

“This is very cool, but one question, Miho-san. Who are the Garnet Democrats?” said Haruna.

“Yeah, I wanna know about those” said Shōjirō.

“It will be amazing that you will explain all about the things related to that council” said Kai.

“Well, I guess you’re interested into this, then I will explain it to you all” said Miho.

“Okay!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“The Garnet Democrats are more independent supporters that they have their own desire to run with. It was Ryōko’s idea that she wanted to form her own party to run for the Toyohashi Idol Council. For me, I am also an independent member, but technically, I created my own bloc known as Dive Toyohashi, which it only got 6 seats, composed of me, Tamami, Michiya, Chitose, Runa Okumura and Naoya Kondō. We used to take part of it because we have supported Ryōko’s platforms in continuing the progress of balancing the trust between idols and fans through fantastic activities to make. I was also fascinated that the Garnet Democrats are very strong due to most of their members have been independent to the issues that happened in the virtual world of our city” said Miho.

“I say that this party is very independent to make sure that they don’t want to get involved with the other parties as they want to represent their own group” said Haruna.

“They have to make sure that they will make opportunities to lead the council” said Shōjirō.

“And it will be greatly fair enough for them to create their own ways to shine like fan support and side missions” said Kai.

“Yes, I agree with that! The Garnet Democrats have been divided into different factions, but Ryōko’s group, which is Energize for a Better Future of Toyohashi, had the most members elected with 19. Ryōko and her friend are more focused on helping the community to motivate and support the idols without hesitation. They want to make the difference in their own way, so that they will be able to make everyone feel thrilled to support idols for sure” said Miho.

“Well, I have to say that they have been confident in running their own group when it comes to the actions that they want to shine the community in different ways” said Tomoyo.

“They’re very determined to do their best in making the Idol Council more blessed and inspired” said Issei.

“It’s going to be awesome that they will show their smiles in representing that group because they have done a lot of things to prosper” said Chiyako.

“Hopefully, they will keep this up until the next session if they will maintain their seats for sure” said Aya.

“Yeah, I hope so. They’re not letting themselves down because they have their own miracles to take up with, so they will have their own way to shine as they’ll be determined to lead the council for themselves” said Miho.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“The next party is the Wonderland Party, which is composed of the supporters of Matsuri Tokugawa and it was led by an idol fan in Fuyuko Matsui. The party was at first being the dominant party for 4 sessions until two weeks ago when the Garnet Democrats have taken them out in that election while Matsui was replaced by Yoshizawa as the President of the Toyohashi Idol Council” said Miho. Fuyuko Matsui is a second year high school student from the Takashi Hanazumi High School.

“They’re a good party with their own way to shine the Idol Council through magnificent ideas that they have” said Takanori.

“However, it didn’t last long when they have been challenged by a lot of parties of the opposition” said Mayako.

“But they’re still confident that they will run it back one day when the next session comes” said Kōsuke.

“Yeah, you got that right! The Wonderland Party is a good party that represented the entire Aichi Prefecture and they have been doing a great job in maintaining the support of Matsuri because she’s a good and famous idol after all” said Miho.

“Matsuri had been a dedicated idol that she had done the most and she’s so ecstatic that she had been recognized as one of the best idols in the 765 Production” said Michinori.

“Their fans won’t let her down without a doubt because they’re ready to dive themselves with their smiles” said Maria.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“The third and last major party in the Toyohashi Idol Council is the Violet Legion, which is composed of members that they have strong views of supporting idols from independent agencies and they have been more of ‘outcasts’ since they were originally opposed to the Wonderland Party. They became hostile when they don’t want to be part with either Garnet Democrats or Wonderland, which means that they’re most likely the major opposition in the Idol Council” said Miho.

“This party is more like a lone wolf party who wanted to make the difference of their own” said Fuyumi.

“It’s more like the Development Party, but they’re very aggressive with their own platforms that they have” said Natsuhiko.

“Yes, they were. The Violet Legion had supported Virtual YouTubers that are more ‘chaotic’ and ‘demeaning’, but they looked serious when they want to lead in their own way” said Miho.

“One of their members is Tatsuya Hirasawa, a third year high school student from the Ōmihara Gakuen High School. He is more uneasy when it comes to taking some action for his friends, but he’s seemed to be expressive on the other side” said Michinori.

“There’s no doubt that the Violet Legion will vow to put themselves into the top if they will be able to grow themselves to take the rest of the parties on notice” said Maria.

“That’s why you will be more surprised if they will be shining through their auras, proving that they don’t want to give up for themselves” said Miho.

“Well, I believe that they’ll have their own hopes to take what’s right and wrong because they have to be more formidable if they want to build a victory in the next elections” said Shōjirō.

“They should be more careful if they want to lead the community” said Kai.

“Because they should be more of focusing on the issues that the community had been undertaken with” said Tomoyo.

“That way, they will have their chance to rise themselves through authority” said Issei.

“Yeah, I agree with that, guys!” said Miho.

“Now that there are three major parties, what the other participants would be like?” asked Chiyako.

“There are different parties that have been able to elect themselves into the Toyohashi Idol Council with 24 members being part of it” said Miho.

“The largest one is the Future Toyohashi, which they have won 9 seats” said Michinori.

“Then, it would be followed by the Gemstone Coalition, which is composed of the supporters of Dia Kurosawa of Aqours, which in surprise, they have seven seats including Emiri Hiraki, who is part of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi, and Tomoyo Matsukawa” said Maria.

“After that, it will be the Red Section Toyohashi, which Sumika had been part of it and one of the four members that have been elected into the council” said Miho.

“WHAT?!” shouted the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“No way! She did that?!” shouted Chiaki.

“Are you serious?!” exclaimed Mitsuhisa.

“You are part of that legislative body?!” reacted Natsumi.

“You got to be kidding me!” added Haruna.

“Yep! Miho had persuaded me to join the Idol Council by running my own party. I was able to acquire at least 1/3 of the slots that are contested in the first elected that my fictional party had participated where me, Honoka Yoshikawa, Shinya Esaki and Fumihisa Okamoto have been elected” said Sumika. The requirement of a party to participate in the Idol Council elections is to have at least 1/3 of the slots that were listed, depending on the capacity of the seats in general.

“Ah, we get it now” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“I was surprised about this, but looks like you and your friends are making progress out there” said Chiaki.

“I have to say that your group will soon rise to become one of the biggest parties in the Idol Council” said Mitsuhisa.

“It will be amazing that you will lead your own group, so that you will have your representation with” said Natsumi.

“So that, you will make yourself earned if you have done something big in a virtual world with idol councils running” said Haruna.

“Yeah, I agree with that, guys! Before I joined the Idol Council, I found out that the virtual world where idols, fans and producers have run the most was more fascinated and I can’t wait to take part of it, which I decided to invite my three friends in my section to be part of it and it had been paid off. I would be expecting to join the Garnet Democrats to run for prosperous and magnificent dreams to be made, but I want to be more focused on my own ideas” said Sumika.

“I believe that you’ll have something in store when you were part of it” said Shōjirō.

“It seems that you have been very confident that you will represent your own group to take part of the Idol Council” said Kai.

“It’s so nice that you have started your journey to be part of that fictional legislative body” said Tomoyo.

“Hopefully, you will be able to become the President of the Toyohashi Idol Council one day” said Issei.

“So that, you will be more earned enough to show your recognition to everyone in that virtual world” said Chiyako.

“Yeah, you got that right! Also, I was able to invite my sister to be part of it, but she respectfully declined to do so because she’s more focused on helping the community of her own, which she’s a member of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi” said Sumika.

“That’s true, onēchan! For me, I’m very less interested in idols because I have no general ambitions of becoming an idol as I’m a basketball player, but I used to support them if my sister had persuaded me to do that. Of course, I would be more delighted if I want to collaborate with them for fantastic activities to come. For right now, I have to be more focused on being a member of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi” said Sayumi.

“Ah, I see! It will be different if you will be running for the Idol Council, Sayumi-chan, even though you’re less interested into it” said Chiaki.

“However, I will be honest with you if you will be able to team up with any idol in our homeplace” said Mitsuhisa.

“So that, you will be able to get more involved in making the community more beautiful with your collaboration out there” said Natsumi.

“It will be amazing that you’ll be earned once you have done that with your pride, courage and willpower” said Haruna.

“Well, I could do that, but I might gonna think about it for a while. However, I will always support my sister’s decisions when she’s in the Idol Council” said Sayumi.

“Okay, that’s good!” said Chiaki.

“I’m happy with that answer” said Mitsuhisa.

“It’s okay that you have us!” said Natsumi.

“We’re always showing some willpower to you as always” said Haruna.

“Yeah, for sure!” said Sayumi.

“What about the four remaining seats?” asked Takanori.

“Are they coming from the independents in the council?” added Mayako.

“Yes, they were! These seats are occupied by the other members of the Idol Council that they have no stance on whoever siding with” said Miho.

“There are some people who are not interested in some issues out there, but they want to pacify themselves” said Michinori.

“Or they have their own ideas with their own ambitions” said Maria.

“So, they are considered more on being the other opposition as they don’t want to be part of any affiliation and instead, they want to form their own bloc to represent with their own ideals and truths” said Miho.

“Well, they have the best way to get away from the other groups, so that they want to have their own way to assemble with” said Takanori.

“I believe that they are more confident in running of their own because they don’t want to take some issues with the other council members” said Mayako.

“It will be much better if they will shut themselves and do their own way to make the statement” said Aya.

“Yeah, we agree with that!” said Miho, Michinori and Maria.

“So, it depends on who are you supporting with when you’re gonna decide on which group that you preferred to support the most, but hopefully, you will get used into it, so that they will be able to get recognized by the people in the virtual world as this is their time to shine with their own auras. Maybe, one day, we will do something fun to work with!” said Miho.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“Now that she had done sharing about her personal lives and interests, it’s our turn to share about her” said Sumika.

“So that, you will be ready to get shocked on what we have made for her friendship with us being developed” said Sayumi.

“Okay!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“As you can see, the three of us have been gotten along with each other in a group dinner during the first day of spring where we were joined by my sister’s other classmates” said Sayumi.

“Yeah! This is the part where we have so many moments to treasure with such as having a fun activity of “Truth or Dare” game” said Sumika.

“As well as making fun with jokes to make it more entertaining” said Miho.

“And then, we also shared about some unforgettable stories that each of us have from last school year” said Sayumi.

“We were so blessed and inspired that we have some great moments that we have done in that event because we’re very determined to show that we’re very compassionate to them” said Sumika.

“And it had been blooming enough to develop our friendship with them for more” said Miho.

“That’s very interesting, girls! I never expect that you have some great moments out there by spending with your friends that they have prospered the most!” said Chiaki.

“I’m so surprised that you have a great friendship with them simply because they’re more determined to in making friends with you” said Mitsuhisa.

“I have to say that they’re here to motivate you to make sure that they’ll be ready to bless and inspire you” said Natsumi.

“There are a lot of friends who like to inspire you through your smiles” said Haruna.

“Which others that they have their own representation to state with” said Shōjirō.

“They are different kinds of friends that you have when it comes to different traits” said Kai.

“Such as people who wanted to be feisty and alluring” said Tomoyo.

“Or they are more in being compassionate for everyone to get admired” said Issei.

“Sometimes, they are prestigious that they want them to be more ambitious to lead” said Chiyako.

“Otherwise, they’re very determined to help the community no matter what!” said Aya.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Sayumi, Sumika and Miho.

“We were very determined in showing our smiles to them, so that they want them to be have their gratitude that they need” said Sayumi.

“It’s so great that they were very blessed to us just they want to inspire us without a doubt” said Sumika.

“That’s why they’ll be grateful to show that they’re here to represent for us, so that they’re going to get motivated to shine for the future of our community” said Miho.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“That meeting was something that we want to elevate on our new plan” said Sumika.

“Which we want to have our own extended group to represent not only me, but anyone who is determined to show some gratitude and compassion to me” said Sayumi.

“That’s why it will be amazing that we’re gonna build our own representation, so that we’ll work together with our auras to live it up with” said Miho.

“Oh, so, that’s what you girls are hoping for to make sure that we’re gonna have our own circle of friends to run with!” said Chiaki.

“I have to say that this one could be more fantastic that we need to make that happen” said Mitsuhisa.

“Because we’re bravely confident that we can make the community more blooming with our blessings” said Natsumi.

“So that, they will be able to inspire us if they want to be like us for sure!” said Haruna.

“Yeah! There’s no doubt about it because it will be so amazing that we should take action in making our community more developing with our bright ideas to work on with” said Sayumi.

“If we want to stick together as a team…” said Sumika.

“…then, we will have to show our pride and compassion that we have to remember with, so that we’re all set to shine together as one!” said Miho.

“Yeah, we agree with that, girls!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“However, Harunobu said that he will be addressing this in a few days, so that we will have some plans on what to do with it. It will be exciting that you’re all set for this once we’ll have the right time to plan on this for sure!” said Sayumi.

“Of course, we can, Sayumi-chan! Since you’re a member of the Bravehearts of Toyohashi, then I believe that you’re gonna have a lot of plans to share one day” said Chiaki.

“It will be amazing that you’re gonna reveal those plans to us if you have done something amazing or fantastic” said Mitsuhisa.

“So that, you will be delighted to make us more comfortable with your plans” said Natsumi.

“Which means that you’re gonna do your best to call out your close friends out there to create your circle of friends” said Haruna.

“Yeah, I hope so. I haven’t sure what to do with it, but one day, I will reveal it to you all, so that you’re ready to gleam something good when everyone is ready to unite with us” said Sayumi.

“We will not start that yet until we have the right time to work with” said Sumika.

“So, you better stay tuned for that because it will be something that you’re gonna love and inspirable” said Miho.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“On the other hand, we started working together with those that have been involved in the fictional Toyohashi Idol Council by forming the Association of Toyohashi Youth for Empowerment and Progress” said Sayumi.

“Where not only from our school Ōmihara Gakuen…” said Sumika.

“…but those from selected schools with most of them are in college, especially people who have resided in Nagoya, but representing Toyohashi” said Miho.

“Oh, that’s great news! I can’t wait to see what’s going on in that association!” said Chiaki.

“I have to say that it’s for the youth that they want to prosper the community for more!” said Mitsuhisa.

“That’s something that I want to see!” said Natsumi.

“Yeah, me either! It’s going to be awesome that you will organize some future activities that will power us” said Haruna.

“We will be amazing that we will join with that group because it’s our destiny to represent our hometown” said Shōjirō.

“That way, we will be ready to shine our community with pride, courage and willpower” said Kai.

“It’s going to be great that we’re all blessed and inspired!” said Tomoyo.

“Yeah, I agree with that, guys, but unfortunately, there are some limitations in that group, which means that only people who were more supportive with their own ideas to take up with, especially some bravehearts that they want to lead for change can join that group” said Sayumi.

“As a result, only Sayumi and a few more guys such as Emiri, Maria Saeki, Nana Takagi and Akinobe Hashimoto were officially part of that group” said Sumika.

“We’re hopefully gonna invite more guys from the Bravehearts of Toyohashi to join that association” said Miho.

“Both Riko and Runo Tachikawa have been interested to join that group when I asked them to join because they’re very fascinated about the fact that the two of us have been involved in making the community more beautiful with brighter ideas” said Sayumi.

“And also, Riko was said to have friends with those who have been associated to her sister Runo, which means that it will be grateful for them to be part of us if they want to engage in helping the community for more” said Sumika.

“Oh, that’s very interesting! I’m so surprised that there are some bravehearts going to come to that association!” said Issei.

“It’s so nice that there’s going to be more blessings to come out with!” said Chiyako.

“They know that they want to shine for more by joining that group” said Takanori.

“So that, they will be amazing to prosper their community through their pride and willpower” said Mayako.

“Yes, they will, guys!” said Sayumi, Sumika and Miho.

“That’s why it’s so amazing that this association will be more prospered enough to make our community growing with blessings and inspirations” said Sayumi.

“So that, they will be able to engage themselves in showing their pride, courage and willpower” said Sumika.

“It’s going to be great if we will be working on a collaboration activity with them if they’re ready to shine for more!” said Miho.

“I got to say that it will be magnificent that you girls will be doing your best to shine the community with your bright ideas, so that you will be able to make them blessed and inspired” said Kōsuke.

“When the community is ready to shine in their own way, they have to be more prepared in making brighter ideas to make up with” said Fuyumi.

“So that, these will be benefited for the community to engage themselves for the better future” said Natsuhiko.

“It’s going to be great that Toyohashi will be more blooming with future activities that are coming to their way and so, we will be awesome that we will work together as one!” said Aya.

“Yeah!” said Sayumi, Sumika and Miho.

“By one day, we will be ready to collaborate with them for future activities that will shine our community like the other neighboring areas that they have used to” said Sayumi.

“That way, it will be grateful enough to show some pride and willpower to everyone” said Sumika.

“And you’re all prepared to make everyone feeling motivated for sure!” said Miho.

“Yeah, we will, girls!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“Whew! I’m so happy that we have shared a lot of things about you, Miho-chan!” said Sayumi.

“Everyone had finally known about your secrets, so that they’re going to remember those one day if they want to recall it from what you have said earlier” said Sumika.

“Yeah, you’re right about that, Sayumi-san and Sumika-san! I’m very grateful when it comes to sharing my secrets, so that they will be able to know those if they want to find something coincidental or remember that. Right, my friends?” said Miho.

“Yeah, we agree, Miho-san!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“My advice is to give yourself a good compassion to each other, so that you will be more determined to have a great day just like how we have done right now” said Miho.

“Oh, that’s a good one! I will remember that!” said Chiaki.

“Yeah, me either!” said Mitsuhisa.

“It will be amazing that we should never forget this day!” said Natsumi.

“So that, we will be able to make us feel compassionated and delighted to each one of us!” said Haruna.

“I’m feeling joyful now that I have you the first time, which it makes me so happy that you’re here to bless us!” said Shōjirō.

“There’s no doubt that you will never let us down!” said Kai.

“We will be more confident to make friends with you!” said Tomoyo.

“So that, we’re gonna have so much fun things to excite with!” said Aya.

“Yeah, you got it!” said Miho.

“That’s my sister! She’s always determined to make friends with you!” said Michinori.

“You will never forget her smile once she’s very delighted all the time! You could do the same thing too to make yourself more exciting like her!” said Maria.

“Yeah, we will!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“Oh, speaking of something exciting, then why we will all go out and play some basketball?” queried Sayumi.

“That way, we will be amazing to have a wonderful day!” added Sumika.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Red Diamond Victory.

“Let’s get this on!” said Chiaki.

“Yeah, I’m ready!” said Mitsuhisa.

“Count as in!” said Natsumi and Haruna.

“That’s great, guys!” said Sayumi before joining with Sumika and Miho as they are shouting together in unison. “Now, let’s have some fun outside by playing basketball!”

“Yeah!” said Michinori, Maria and the members of the Red Diamond Victory as they alongside Sayumi, Sumika and Miho are heading outside to the terrace, so that they will be playing a game of basketball. The members of the Red Diamond Victory were surprised that they have been joined by Miho, who had been a great friend of Sayumi and Sumika and shared her secrets to them, which means that they’re quickly thrilled to have a good friend in her. Sayumi had been delighted that her friends are enjoyed getting along with Miho and her siblings, who were guests at Sayumi’s home, and hopefully, she will continue to bless and inspire them to make sure that they’re feeling grateful and uplifted that they will have their blessings to earn with.

LATER TONIGHT: A Special Message from Shioriko Mifune
 
A Special Message from Shioriko Mifune

Hi, everyone! My name is Shioriko Mifune of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I’ll be sharing about my friends in Aichi, which includes Toshiko Nakamichi, a first year high school student from the Inaei Hoseigyō High School and a member of the Bravehearts of Minato (Nagoya). Originally, she was born in Toyohashi, she grew up in the ward of Minato while her parents worked in the Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium. She had become defiant and expressive to everyone to her side because she became more confident to prosper everyone with her smile. Like Mitsuki Fukaya, a friend of fellow club member Setsuna Yūki in Nakagawa, Toshiko had showed her charisma to take care of everything that is more important rather than sacrificing it because she’s very opportunistic to give everyone some motivation that they need, so that they’ll be able to gain some trust on her, which makes her respect meter getting improved. I like her expressive personality because she’s more respectful to bless her friends, so that she’ll be very confident to make them comfortable for sure! One thing that you know about her is that she is a former member of the Inaei Hoseigyō Middle School Student Council as a former Secretary. When she became a secretary, she started to take action in making the students in Inaei Hoseigyō showing their pride and compassion in a heartbeat and they became so delighted to gain some respect on her. It reminds me of being a serious and harmonious student leader because I used to lead in making decisions just like Setsuna and I became determined to lead the Student Council through my rainbow heart, despite I didn’t appear in the anime yet because Setsuna was still leading the Council at that time. As for her friends, she had been interested in expressive students that have shown their compassion to her such as Izumi Yamashita, Seichirō Fukumoto, Asahi Katsumoto, Yoshimitsu Aikawa and Suzue Inagawa and they have been able to follow the examples of her because they’re more determined to bless and inspire everyone in Inaei Hoseigyō, especially when they were involved in shining their community with Toshiko. It feels nice for Toshiko to have her friends on her side to get along with her, so that they’ll be able to develop their friendship with her, which means that she had been blessed to give them a smile beautifully. Recently, she had joined the Bravehearts of Minato (Nagoya) because she wanted to be more determined in get along with her new friends as she wanted to show her pride and willpower to represent for that group. She met with Seiji Haramoto, the leader of that braveheart group, a few days ago and she finally agreed to team up with him and his friends, so that she’ll be able to bless her community through her presentation of compassion and prosperity. I’m so happy that she had been delighted to be part of that group because she finally got her chance to join a community group that is more blessed and more prospered, which is why she’s so nice that she’ll finally have her chance to represent that group, so that she’ll be ready to give everyone a smile that they want to see. I hope that I can meet her very soon if I can have an opportunity to get along with her to make sure that she’ll never forget about me, now that I had been part of NijiGaku and of course, you’ll be thrilled to see her in the future updates to come! Hopefully, you’ll be ready to witness something new to gleam and prosper with your rainbow heart when you’ll finally witness my friends on her side in the future. Anyway, that’s all for me for my first postscript message and I hope that you’ll be uplifted to see me again very soon! Until then, I’ll see you next time when we’ll meet each other again and stay compassionated and innocent with your rainbow heart, everyone!
- Shioriko Mifune (CV. Moeka Koizumi)

SIDE STORY: “RED SECTION STORIES
CHAPTER 98: “A GREAT BIG NIGHT FOR THE RED-HAIRED MEMBERS OF THE BRAVEHEARTS OF NISHI FUKUOKA

Date: May 7, 2010 (Friday)

This side story is focused on Konomi Miyahara, Kurori Imamura, Naoki Moriuchi and Takuya Naganuma as they are getting along with their close friends while enjoying their night at the hall in the mansion of the Misawa Resort Hotel where they are attending the great banquet that celebrated the development of the friendship between the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

At one table, the red-haired members of the Bravehearts of Nishi Fukuoka are having a great conversation with their close friends while celebrating the development of the friendship between the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka. The red-haired members of the Bravehearts of Nishi Fukuoka are composed of Konomi Miyahara, Kurori Imamura, Naoki Moriuchi and Takuya Naganuma. They would be joined Seijirō Mishima (the leader of the Scarlet Fronter Hoshiguma), Manaka Asakawa (the leader of the Belleza Magnifica Nogata), Hachigō Nishimoto (the leader of the Nanahashi Red Volt), Shinsuke Miyazawa (the brother of Akihisa Miyazawa), Ichika Ueno, Fuyu Kanemoto, Motohiro Kuribayashi, Mei Sanada and Toshio Yamashita.

“What a night, guys! I can’t believe that this event was so magnificent! It’s so nice that the friendship between the two groups have been paid off ever since they have met each other last week!” said Seijirō Mishima, a first year middle school student from the Fukushige Sanban Middle School and the leader of the Scarlet Frontier Hoshiguma, a group composed of the close friends of Konomi Miyahara.

“After Kazuhiro and Subaru have met with each other in Fukuoka before, both groups were finally friends at the same time!” said Manaka Asakawa, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Fukushige Sanban Elementary School and the leader of the Belleza Magnifica Nogata, a group composed of the close friends of Kurori Imamura.

“It’s very nice that they have their friendship had been developed since they have their own history since those two leaders were very close friends all along. They are very compassionate with each other and that’s why they’re more determined to make their friendship more blooming than ever” said Hachigō Nishimoto, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Fukushige Sanban Elementary School and the leader of the Nanahashi Red Volt, a group composed of the friends of Takuya Naganuma.

“Yep! You got that right! Sumiko Miyasaka said that the Bravehearts of Fukuoka and the Bravehearts of Ōta have known with each other last week because Kazuhiro and Subaru made their promise that they will bring their braveheart groups to meet with each other one day. She is very confident that Kazuhiro had been the man of the hour as he had made friends with fellow braveheart leaders around his home prefecture” said Konomi Miyahara, a first year middle school student from the Fukushige Sanban Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Nishi Fukuoka. Konomi is resembled to Hinata Hakamada.

“Kazuhiro had been friends with Akihisa, Masanori, Tōru and Takahiro because they have worked together to become the best players in Fukuoka” said Kurori Imamura, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Fukushige Sanban Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Nishi Fukuoka. Kurori is resembled to Hiiragi Takenaka.

“And now, he had started to influence his own connection with the other braveheart leaders, especially Hidemitsu Oniki, who is the leader of the Bravehearts of Kitakyushu” said Naoki Murauchi, a first year middle school student from the Fukushige Sanban Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Nishi Fukuoka. Naoki is resembled to Akitsugu Wakui.

“That’s why he’s the Blue Ace of Fukuoka because he had been flanked and amazed by his followers for sure!” said Takuya Naganuma, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Fukushige Sanban Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Nishi Fukuoka. Takuya is resembled to Ken Yamamoto.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“Now, everyone knows that Kazuhiro had been inspired by different braveheart leaders in Fukuoka and that’s why he’s very determined to make sure that he’s gonna shine all the way like how he used to make himself motivated to be the best player in Fukuoka” said Shinsuke Miyazawa, a second year middle school student from the Fukushige Sanban Middle School and the brother of Akihisa Miyazawa.

“Yeah, that’s true, Shinsuke! I believe that he will be ready to compete against the best of the best from different prefectures if he wants to prove himself that he will be a phenomenal star to rise for the future of Japanese basketball” said Seijirō.

“With his potential and athleticism being the best, he can show his moves that will shock you the most” said Manaka.

“He had showed his compassionated heart for himself to groove and he’s not gonna let anyone down for sure” said Hachigō.

“Yeah, you got it!” said Shinsuke.

“How Akihisa known about the influence of Kazuhiro to the other braveheart leaders in Fukuoka?” asked Ichika Ueno, a first year middle school student from the Fukushige Sanban Middle School and a member of the Scarlet Frontier Hoshiguma.

“That’s a good question, Ichika-san. You see, Akihisa had been expressive to Kazuhiro all the time whenever the latter had organized a big gathering with the leaders of different braveheart groups in our hometown during the fourth Saturday of every month. He believed that Kazuhiro had his own mentality of creating an influence with them” said Konomi.

“They would even invite a few guests such as Kōichirō Sugatani, the captain of the Fukuoka University Ōhori High School boys’ basketball team” said Kurori.

“And Junichi Kitagawa, the captain of the Meinohoshi High School boys’ basketball team” said Naoki.

“As a result, most of them were now in the Top 25 best players in Fukuoka Prefecture including Kazuhiro, which means that the scouts are very interested in recruiting them into college basketball in our country” said Takuya.

“Oh, that’s very interesting! I didn’t know that we have a lot of best players in our hometown!” said Ichika.

“They’re very fascinated to show that they’re here to put up a good show” said Fuyu Kanemoto, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Fukushige Sanban Elementary School and a member of the Belleza Magnifica Nogata.

“It’s so amazing that they have been doing a great job in grooving their careers through their potential and athleticism” said Motohiro Kuribayashi, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Fukushige Sanban Elementary School and a member of the Belleza Magnifica Nogata.

“They’re looking forward to have their magnificent careers when they’re reaching college” said Mei Sanada, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Fukushige Sanban Elementary School and a member of the Nanahashi Red Volt.

“And then, making it to the professional level of basketball if they’re good enough to shine in the court for more” said Toshio Yamashita, a sixth grade elementary school student from the Fukushige Sanban Elementary School and a member of the Nanahashi Red Volt.

“Yes, they will! That’s why everyone in the country had been waiting for the best players in Fukuoka to rise after the previous classes being dominant by mostly in Tokyo and Osaka” said Shinsuke.

“The influence made by Kazuhiro became more attractive to most cities in the northern part of Kyushu as well as some specific cities around the country and so, they’re considered very deep to have their potential getting better” said Konomi.

“Also, it became more formidable to make that class something special with numerous players from Kyushu have gone hard as they would be” said Kurori.

“Hopefully, a lot of them will produce themselves into the professional leagues if things are about to get shocking during the season” said Naoki.

“So, we better watch out for them for sure!” said Takuya.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“I’m positively hyped to see this because we have so many talented players coming out to groove and shine for them to elevate into the next level” said Seijirō.

“It will be so amazing that they’re gonna show how it’s done by their fascinated and stupendous moves that created shock waves in the arena” said Manaka

“I have to say that you can’t sleep on them because they’re here to take over!” said Hachigō

“Yeah!” said Konomi, Kurori, Naoki, Takuya and Shinsuke.

“Anyway, there’s something that you should know, guys!” said Konomi.

“It may be very interesting to gleam once you will hear this” said Kurori.

“So, you better get ready to see what we’re talking about” said Shinsuke.

“Okay!” said Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“Now, a few weeks ago before the Ōta Blue Wind Cup, when Akihisa was attending the gathering that was organized by Kazuhiro, he said that Kazuhiro had revealed the rankings for the best players in Fukuoka Prefecture, which it became more interesting to see” said Konomi.

“Yeah, and according to the rankings, the Royal Flush of Fukuoka have been in the Top 5 for the best players in the batch, which includes both Akihisa and Kazuhiro” said Kurori.

“Many sportswriters said that these five players are aiming to play college, so that they will have their chance to shine themselves in order to get into the professional leagues once they’re done in four years” said Naoki.

“However, one of the five had been interested to play in the States” said Takuya.

“And that person is Kazuhiro Hatakenaka himself” said Shinsuke.

“WHAT!?” shouted Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“No way!” exclaimed Seijirō.

“You got to be kidding me!” reacted Manaka.

“Wow! That’s so bizarre!” added Hachigō.

“I can’t believe it!” shouted Ichika.

“That guy wanted to play in the NBA!” exclaimed Fuyu.

“He must be scouted by some trainers in the West” said Motohiro.

“He might gonna play overseas if he does like his interests of going to the NBA” said Mei.

“I’m sure that this guy had been ambitious in playing for the bigger names like NBA and the Euroleague” said Toshio.

“Yes, he was, guys. Kazuhiro is the leader of the Royal Flush of Fukuoka” said Konomi.

“Because he had always shined the most when he had performed his great moves to make the crowd getting excited on him playing like a superstar” said Kurori.

“And like I said earlier, he made a lot of friends on his side including those from the higher level” said Naoki.

“Not only that had been a very good athlete to take the attention of becoming a top prospect in the country for his class, but he’s a magnificent guy who can change the game of basketball forever” said Takuya.

“Everyone likes Kazuhiro’s style of play because he can do a lot of things to shine and make sure that they don’t want to miss his moments” said Shinsuke.

“So, why Kazuhiro had been interested to play college in the States over our country?” asked Seijirō.

“Well, for some reason, he was scouted by American scouts during the Interhigh Nationals in Tokyo where the best players have showed their moves to impress them” said Konomi.

“There were rumors that he had been offered by just one school in the West” said Kurori.

“Which is the Gonzaga University” said Naoki.

“That school had been one of the underdogs in college basketball due to great players and great coaching staff” said Takuya.

“So far, that’s the only school that he got offered from, but a lot of universities in our country have pursued to recruit Kazuhiro as well” said Shinsuke.

“That’s very interesting, guys! I was so surprised that he got one offer from the States” said Seijirō.

“And it will be tough for him to speak in English if he decides to enroll in Gonzaga” said Manaka. Manaka referred her observation to how Rui Hachimura had met the SAT and GPA requirements to be eligible to play at Gonzaga on his first year in 2016. He ended up declaring for the NBA Draft in 2019 where he was drafted by the Washington Wizards with the ninth pick.

“I think that the best way for him is to stay in our country in college, so that he will be able to get opportunities to play for an elite college basketball team” said Hachigō.

“Well, he would do that if he is hesitated to stay in Fukuoka with his friends because Fukuoka is a great home for him to represent there” said Konomi.

“And of course, he doesn’t want to let his friends down” said Kurori.

“Especially that he’s the leader of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka” said Naoki.

“That’s why it’s going to be a tough situation for him once he’s reaching his final year in high school next season where he had to face a lot of issues that he had to sort it out” said Takuya.

“If I were Kazuhiro, guys, I would definitely love to stay in Japan rather than heading into the States” said Shinsuke.

“Yeah, he should!” said Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“I believe that he would rather play college in our country, so that he will be able to shine there” said Seijirō.

“If he wants to make it to the NBA, then he should dazzle with his own moves, that he will have his attention from the media” said Manaka.

“And since he’s the best player in Fukuoka, then he would be more delighted to show his moves no matter what!” said Hachigō.

“Imagine one of the best players in Fukuoka getting offered by a lot of universities in college by the age of 16 years old? That would be insane to choose any of those!” said Ichika.

“Of course, he’s a braveheart who had his pride and compassion getting bloomed all the way” said Fuyu.

“He could do whatever he wants because he’s always determined to make everyone motivated and inspired” said Motohiro.

“So, he should definitely go with the right choice by staying in our country to play hard for more” said Mei.

‘That way, he will be ready to create his own game when he reaches professional” said Toshio.

“Yeah!” said Konomi, Kurori, Naoki, Takuya and Shinsuke.

“It’s going to be very interesting for him to decide on staying rather than leaving because he had a lot of pride for his hometown” said Konomi.

“Which we were very fascinated to see him shining his way to make himself stronger to be the best player in Fukuoka Prefecture and the entire country” said Kurori.

“We should always believe in him because he’s more hopeful to have his loyalty being developed the most, so that his desire to play college basketball in country will most likely gonna happen” said Naoki.

“Kazuhiro is very ambitious to run his own ways to shine, but if he wants to play professional, then he had to work hard for more” said Takuya.

“Only time will tell if he’s expected to decide his future as he still have a lot of things to prove” said Shinsuke.

“Yeah, of course!” said Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“How ranked Kazuhiro was when it comes to the national level?” asked Motohiro.

“He’s currently listed in Top 10 for the best players in the country for his class and he’s behind by a lot of guys in Kanto” said Kurori.

“Which means that he had to increase his reputation to be the best player in his class” said Konomi.

“Through performing big moments with a great stat line” said Naoki.

“We have seen him before last year when he had been in the court for his moments” said Takuya.

“But hopefully, he’s ready to show how it’s done this year because he’s ready to get balling” said Shinsuke.

“Oh, I see. I guess that he had to improve himself if he wants to be the best player in his class” said Motohiro.

“This one would be difficult because he needs to shine for more, so that he will increase his reputation in the rankings” said Fuyu.

“I’m sure that he will probably work hard to make sure that he’s gonna shine with his own way” said Ichika.

“Of course, he would! Some guys aren’t being the best players in the country because they still have to prove themselves worthy to get balling big time” said Konomi.

“However, there’s a chance that they will move up places if they’re looked stronger by the start of the season” said Kurori.

“That’s why there are a lot of competitions at stake in trying to become the best players in the country as they are trying to work hard if they want to prove themselves to be dominant and formidable” said Naoki.

“They have to be more prepared if they want to be on the top” said Takuya.

“By the end of the year, they’ll make themselves earned for sure” said Shinsuke.

“Yeah!” said Ichika, Fuyu and Motohiro.

“If Kazuhiro is the best player in his class, the second year high school level, then who are the best players in the other levels?” asked Mei.

“For the third year high school level, their best player right now is Kōichirō Sugatani” said Naoki.

“While for the first year high school level, it was Toshiya Hashizume, who is currently a first year high school student from the Fukuoka International High School” said Takuya.

“The sportswriters from the National High School Basketball Weekly have predicted on who will be the #1 in every prefecture before picking the best players in the nationwide list” said Konomi.

“Sometimes, they have been lauded with the rankings, but others have been criticized for poor performance from last season” said Kurori.

“So, it depends on who are making it in the rankings, so that they’ll make themselves earned and recognized” said Shinsuke.

“Oh, we understand that” said Mei and Toshio.

“I guess that they’ll be more amazed if they’re in the rankings, but some of them would have deserved themselves too” said Mei.

“Hopefully, there will be chaotic complaints out there and stop those arguments at all” said Toshio.

“Yeah, for sure” said Shinsuke while Konomi, Kurori, Naoki and Takuya only said “Yeah.”

“What else that Akihisa observed?” asked Ichika.

“Well, he said that the other leaders of different braveheart groups in Fukuoka have been very expressive like the way they used to be” said Konomi.

“Such as Yoshitaka Sumitani of the Bravehearts of Itoshima, Kazuyuki Takamoto of the Bravehearts of Iizuka, Kotaro Arimitsu of the Bravehearts of Kurume, Keiji Ikematsu of the Bravehearts of Kasuga, Hiroya Namiguchi of the Bravehearts of Asakura, Mikuni Hashimoto of the Bravehearts of Munekata and Fumihiko Sueyoshi of the Bravehearts of Ōmuta” said Kurori.

“These guys have the same potential as the Royal Flush of Fukuoka and the Kitakyushu Braveheart Crew, but they’re not much stronger than them” said Naoki.

“Which means that they could become sleepers as well if they have their own hidden gems to show with” said Takuya.

“You will be surprised when they’re going to show their moves, so that they will be dazzling their way to shine” said Shinsuke.

“Hmmm… that’s very interesting! I’ll be more confident that they will be getting high hopes of making themselves into college one day” said Ichika.

“They’re looking forward to make progress of their basketball careers, so that they will be able to elevate themselves into the next level” said Fuyu.

“If they want to take everyone on notice, then they will have to prove themselves that they’re good at it” said Motohiro.

“I agree!” said Konomi.

“Yes, indeed!” said Kurori.

“Yeah!” said Naoki, Takuya and Shinsuke.

“I wonder what they are up to, guys, because those guys that they visited Kazuhiro’s home for their special night” said Seijirō.

“That’s a good question, Seijirō-san. You see, Kazuhiro had addressed about the plans on preparing for the upcoming Interhigh prefectural tournament, which will start on June 19 (Saturday) with more than 200 schools participating to compete for the spot to advance to the Interhigh Nationals, which will take place in Tokyo this coming summer” said Konomi.

“They decided to work on their strategies on what they will be looking forward to improve, so that they’re all prepared for that tournament” said Kurori.

“One thing that you find it very interesting is that five schools, Kashii Gakuen, Fukuoka University Ōhori, Kokurasaki, Kurume Gakuen and Fukuoka International, are title favorites for this year’s tournament” said Naoki.

“Which means that they could have their potential of making it to the Interhigh Nationals if they have exceeded their expectations by advancing themselves together with only at least one or two will move on” said Takuya.

“So, it’s going to be much more of a high stakes competition for these teams as they have worked hard to make sure that they will never lose their willpower, but any of them can make it to the Interhigh Nationals if they’re good and strong to take over the court in one game to another” said Shinsuke.

“Oh, that sounds interesting! I can’t believe these schools are looking forward to get into that tournament!” said Seijirō.

“Looks like this is going to be a competition that they will get, I tell you!” said Manaka.

“Yeah!” said Konomi, Kurori, Naoki, Takuya and Shinsuke.

“What about Akihisa’s team? Can they will make it to a further round?” asked Hachigō.

“Probably, they will just make it to the final 16, but experts said that they’ll expect to see Akihisa and his teammate Ren Tomiyasu working together to fire up those uncontested shots, which we’re all wanted to see for sure. Isn’t that right, guys?” said Shinsuke.

“Yeah!” said Konomi, Kurori, Naoki, Takuya and their friends.

“While the preparations for the upcoming Interhigh prefectural tournaments are ongoing, they will have their own special training next week where all leaders will work out with a basketball player-turned-entrepreneur Satoru Takeno” said Shinsuke. Satoru Takeno is resembled to Chris Brickley, but in a basketball player-turned-businessman way.

“Whoa! They’re going to have a big training with that guy?!” shouted Hachigō.

“That guy is a millionaire!” said Seijirō.

“He had been influenced by a lot of players including his proteges” said Manaka.

“Yes, he was. He had a magnificent basketball career for 16 years where he’s a 2-time champion with the Fukuoka Opals. Of course, he’s a hometown hero who had helped the Opals to its first JBL Finals appearance in 2001 where they have defeated the Ibaraki Stags in 5 games. He repeated it again in 2004 where they have defeated the Yokohama Sunrisers in 4 games” said Shinsuke.

“He had retired from basketball in 2008 at the age of 38 to focus on his family before ended being an entrepreneur who had own his luxurious basketball court in Higashihirao” said Konomi.

“He has three children who were all currently studied in separate schools” said Kurori.

“His eldest son Satoshi is currently a first year middle school student from his father’s school, the Higashi Fukuoka Jikan Junior High School, while his twin siblings Mikako and Michiya are currently fifth grade elementary school students from the Tsukiguma Elementary School” said Naoki.

“Only Satoshi had been interested in playing basketball while both twins Mikako and Michiya are interested in organizing activities and hanging out with their friends online through group chat” said Takuya.

“Oh, that’s very interesting! I can’t believe that his children have their own dreams to take up with!” said Ichika.

“That Satoshi is aiming to become a real baller once he grows up” said Fuyu.

“He can be like his father because he had inspired him by learning the moves that his father had” said Motohiro.

“Those three have their own high hopes because they have their own ambitions to name with, which means that they’re looking forward to have a brighter future soon” said Mei.

“Hopefully, it will be amazing for them to make their dreams come true one day and of course, they’ll be earned for sure!” said Toshio.

“Yes, indeed, Toshio!” said Shinsuke.

“The big training at Satoru’s luxurious court will be very important for them because they want to get balling to shine as they’re here to run the court for themselves” said Konomi.

“Kazuhiro said that the training with Satoru would allow him and the other braveheart leaders to make themselves stronger by working out on their exciting and thrilling moves” said Kurori.

“Satoru had trained a lot of young guys in Fukuoka ever since he retired from basketball two years ago and he would have been awesome if he became a development coach of the Opals” said Naoki.

“But instead he would focus on becoming an entrepreneur because he was graduated from his degree” said Takuya.

“Hopefully, he will be able to groom Kazuhiro, Akihisa and the others to make sure that they’re ready to take over the court with their auras to shine up with” said Shinsuke.

“Yeah!” said Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“The next thing that he had addressed during the big gathering is about the upcoming circuit tournaments that will be held in a few weeks” said Konomi.

“One of the tournaments will be in Kitakyushu where Hidemitsu Oniki and the Rutile Phoenix will be competing in the Nakaiguchi Invitationals on June 5 and 6” said Kurori.

“They will be defending their title this year after coming off with the victory against the Naito Electrons, which is led by Masakazu Naito, who is projected to be a four-star player upon his graduation next year” said Naoki.

“Also, the Kurume League will be organizing the upcoming Nonakamachi Invitationals this coming May 29 and 30 where Kotaro Arimitsu and the Bravehearts of Kurume will be planning to participate as part of the preparations for their upcoming competitions including the Interhigh prefectural tournament and the middle school prefectural tournament” said Takuya. Kotaru Arimitsu is a second year high school student from the Nonaka Kusagaoka High School and the leader of the Bravehearts of Kurume.

“Meanwhile, in Fukuoka, the Meinohama Invitationals will be held on June 26 and 27, which means that Akihisa and his team, the Red Hearts United Fukuoka, will be planning to participate despite some of their guys including Akihisa are assigned to the Fukushige Sanban High School boys’ basketball team” said Shinsuke.

“However, the members of the Juniors Division of the Bravehearts of Nishi Fukuoka including the four of us, me, Kurori, Naoki and Takuya, will be participating at that invitational tournament” said Konomi.

“As we’re all prepared for the upcoming competitions that will be held this year” said Kurori.

“Sumiko said that this tournament will be a warm-up for all of us for our season to start, starting with the middle school prefectural basketball tournament” said Naoki.

“That’s why we should start training hard for a month before we’re all set to compete this tournament” said Takuya.

“Oh, I’m so excited about this, guys!” said Seijirō.

“I’m hyped to see you guys shining in the court!” said Manaka.

“Hopefully, it will be awesome that you guys will be ready to take over the court just like how Akihisa and his boys did!” said Hachigō.

“Yeah!” said Konomi, Kurori, Naoki and Takuya.

“The Meinohama Invitationals is part of the qualifiers to the Nishi Fukuoka League Cup where four teams that advanced to the semifinals will automatically qualify to the main tournament proper of the latter while selected teams that were eliminated from the former will be qualified to the preliminary round” said Konomi.

“Of course, it will be amazing that our team should be ready to shine with our moves because we want to be more determined in making us stronger to represent for our hometown” said Kurori.

“Also, most of the members in our braveheart group are coming from the ward of Nishi, especially in our Juniors Division” said Naoki.

“Which means that we’re very solid enough to be favorites in the Meinohama Invitationals with great potential on our players” said Takuya.

“Well, it will be amazing that you guys will be ready to get balling in Meinohama Stadium for that tournament because there will be a lot of spectators wanted to see Akihisa and Satomi’s moves” said Ichika.

“They said that they were fascinated to witness those when they were in the court” said Fuyu.

“Especially with those superstar moves that created crowd reactions in one arena to another” said Motohiro.

“I believe that your team will get some firepower to work out on your strategies, so that you will be able to rally your way to victory” said Mei.

“So, once you’re all prepared for that tournament, you should be ready to give all you got and show to the crowd that you’re all to shine!” said Toshio.

“Yes, we will!” said Konomi, Kurori, Naoki and Takuya.

“It will be awesome that you should cheer for us because you guys have groomed us to be brave and bold” said Konomi.

“We’re looking forward for some support on us, so that we will be able to make the crowd more exciting to see us” said Kurori.

“It’s important that you’re all here to bless and inspire for us with your sincere smile” said Naoki.

“And hopefully, you will be able to keep us motivate to make you all thrilled and excited to make us shine for sure!” said Takuya.

“Yeah, we will!” said Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“I’m sure that you’re all excited for the Meinohama Invitationals, guys, but we still have a lot of activities to catch up with before the fun part comes” said Shinsuke.

“Shinsuke’s right, guys! We should be more focused on the current priorities that we have, so that we’ll be able to move on to the next ones” said Konomi.

“And by the way, since we’re all in the home of the Bravehearts of Ōta in the ward of Ōta, located in the capital city of Tokyo, we should be more excited to see what’s going to witness for tomorrow” said Kurori.

“Because tomorrow will be the final day of the Fuchsia and Celadon Week” said Naoki.

“Sumiko said that we should watch the two teams that advanced to the quarterfinals of the Ōta Blue Wind Cup, the Blue Verdant Fukuoka, which is Kazuhiro’s team, and the Green Leaf Rustlers, which is Masanori’s team” said Takuya.

“Their matches will be held outside of the Recreational Center at the outdoor basketball courts in the morning before the anticipating semifinals in the same place before the tournament final will take place at the Recreational Center” said Shinsuke.

“So, hopefully, you’re all set for this because we should be more prepared to see how our close friends have shown themselves that they’re balling for our hometown” said Konomi.

“It will be great for them to show their pride, courage and willpower if they want to take over the court and so, they’ll do whatever it takes to rally for the victory” said Kurori.

“But remember, only one team will stand tall by the end of the tournament” said Naoki.

“Which means that any of these two can become the total victors of the Ōta Blue Wind Cup” said Takuya.

“They will be earned once they have done themselves in the Ōta Blue Wind Cup if they will win that tournament for sure” said Shinsuke.

“Yeah, we agree with that, guys!” said Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“In addition to that, tomorrow will also be the culminating event of the Fuchsia and Celadon Week” said Konomi.

“As well as the big feast where everyone will bring their own food and drinks to celebrate the thanksgiving of everyone who had participated or involved at the Fuchsia and Celadon Week” said Kurori.

“So, Akihisa and Sumiko will be in charge for that one as they will planning to buy some hamburgers and pizzas for the big feast” said Naoki.

“However, you can buy your own food and drinks at downtown Kamata where they were giving some discounts due to the observation of the Golden Week break and the Fuchsia and Celadon Week” said Takuya.

“Oh, that’s good! I will buy some yakitori in the Suzuran Shopping Market!” said Seijirō.

“I’m going for tonkatsu!” said Manaka.

“Hey, I can down with that, but I’ll buy some Ebi tempura!” said Hachigō.

“Chicken teriyaki is good to go!” said Ichika.

“I will go for some ramen noodles!” said Fuyu.

“Rice balls for the win!” said Motohiro.

“I can go for some delicious katsudon!” said Mei.

“I’m taking gyoza!” said Toshio.

“Well, sounds like you have some plans to buy for tomorrow, guys!” said Shinsuke.

“I have to say that you’re all excited for this because it will be amazing that we’re going to have so much fun to eat those if we’re all brought for the big feast” said Konomi.

“Hopefully, we will be ready to have the best night that we will ever had, so that we’re all blessed and inspired” said Kurori.

“Yeah, we will, guys!” said Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“We should be ready for tomorrow because it’s going to be more fun that we will celebrate together to shine their community, even we’re all guests out there” said Seijirō.

“It’s okay that we have been involved to bless and everyone in Ōta even though we only recognized the Bravehearts of Ōta and their allies” said Manaka.

“Fortunately, we’re all thrilled to make friends with anyone who wanted to make the difference to make their community being full of blessings” said Hachigō.

“You got that right, Hachigō-san! Since we’re all part of the organization of the Bravehearts of Nishi Fukuoka, we should be ready to show our pride, courage and willpower to everyone!” said Konomi.

“We will be more compassionate to make everyone more thrilled and motivated through our auras as we will always do the right goals to excel with” said Kurori.

“Everyone will be able to inspire us because they want to be like us through our ways of making them blessed with our own blessings” said Naoki.

“Our responsibility is our way of showing some pride, courage and willpower to everyone and so, we have to make them feel good and comfortable if they will be able to bless us” said Takuya.

“That way, we’re gonna be more delighted to have the blessings being filled on us, so that we will prosper the community like the way it should be. Isn’t that right, guys?” said Shinsuke.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“For now, let’s have some moment to celebrate with our allies to cap off this night!” said Konomi.

“Yeah, tomorrow will be another day for us and it’s all about us that we want to prosper everyone for sure!” said Kurori.

“Yeah, we got it!” said Naoki, Takuya, Shinsuke, Seijirō, Manaka, Hachigō, Ichika, Fuyu, Motohiro, Mei and Toshio.

“Then, let’s enjoy this wonderful night with our smiles and auras!” said Shinsuke.

“Yeah!” said Konomi, Kurori, Naoki, Takuya. The red-haired members of the Bravehearts of Nishi Fukuoka have been very delighted that they have gotten along with each other while celebrating the development of the friendship between their allies, the Bravehearts of Fukuoka, and the Bravehearts of Ōta. They have always prospered together to represent for Akihisa and Sumiko, which means that they’re very determined to show their pride, courage and willpower to shine their community in Nishi-ku, Fukuoka as they will be ready to run their braveheart group to make everyone on their side getting blessed and inspired.

Hi, everyone! My name is Lanzhu Zhong of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and it’s a great honor that I’ll be sharing my first postscript message as I’ll be talking about the Bravehearts of Kōtō. In case you didn’t know, you already recognized the Bravehearts of Minato and the Bravehearts of Takanawa, both braveheart groups that have been associated to NijiGaku through connections, in Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts. Of course, this new braveheart group will be different from the two because it’ll be all about the ambition and compassion that they have shown themselves while representing the ward of Kōtō. So, let’s get into it with the description, structure and interests of that group! The Bravehearts of Kōtō is a braveheart group that is existed in the ward of Kōtō, composed of the young people who wanted to create their own dreams with their own ideas to fascinate with. It was led by Shunichi Ōikawa, a second year high school student from the Funahashi High School, the same school that most of the relatives of my fellow club member Kanata Konoe studied from. The Bravehearts of Kōtō had been founded on the same day as the Bravehearts of Minato and the Bravehearts of Takanawa, thus, this group had been known for their special friendship with them as they have used to get along with each other for most of the time, especially when they organized their collaborative activities. Its members had been composed of two groups: the seniors’ group and the juniors’ group. The seniors’ group is composed of the friends of Shunichi and Ruka Nagamine while the juniors’ group is composed of the friends of Kotoko Hachiuma. They have also welcomed their friends and rivals from either Funahashi or different schools around Kōtō. When they established it as a group of people to represent the future of Kōtō, Shunichi had a goal that came up in his mind as he wanted to prosper the community of Kōtō with hopes and dreams that they have created with. Like the Bravehearts of Minato and the Bravehearts of Takanawa, they also started to expand themselves to create more influence with their friends and allies through the extended group system, so that they’ll be able to collaborate with them for future activities that will shine their community through pride, courage and willpower. Of course, one thing that you find it coincidental is that the Bravehearts of Kōtō would also become friends with our school idol club due to my senpais Karin Asaka, Kanata Konoe and Mia Taylor became friends with some members of that braveheart group such as Kotoko, Emiko Kishida, Kaguya Sunakawa and Haruyo Aiuchi. For me, I had befriended a member of the Bravehearts of Kōtō in Fūko Nishitani, who had the same image color as mine in rose, but the difference is her rose color is darker than mine. Fūko is a rival of Kotoko and a first year middle school student from the Tōyōchō Gakuen Middle School. She’s more like a fearless leader due to her determination and charisma that made herself ambitious and of course, she’s very carefree to everyone on her side, even her rival Kotoko, who considered her a good friend. She had also assembled her own friend group known as the Precious Rose with her best friend Minori Yasuda where they have gotten along with each other where they like to buy some snacks and sing karaoke every other weekend. I like her smile because she’s very precious and of course, she’ll never let herself down to make sure that she’ll always be determined to bless and inspire everyone. Even though I had a different story to tell before I joined NijiGaku, I started to become friends with Fūko and we started to get close with each other, so that we have developed our friendship, which was very promising if you ask me. The Bravehearts of Kōtō made their own promise is that they’ll be creating their own future to make everyone gleam and thrill, so that they’ll be inspiring them through the bottom of their hearts, which is what I want to see in the future for sure! I hope that you’re very excited about that braveheart group because they’ll be expecting to make their first appearance in Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts next year, which means that you’re going to witness their first appearance in the series in a future update that will be focused on them. It’s so nice that you have known about them after I shared everything to you and I hope that you like it! Anyway, it’s nice that we have known each other for the first time since the Halloween Special update and hopefully, you’ll be gleamed to meet me again when our school idol club will be featured in a future update! Until then, I’ll see you next time when we’ll meet again and make yourself indulged and determined with your smile and joy, everyone!

Hi, everyone!:) As you all know, it's almost the end of the year 2021 and I had been very determined that I want to keep it up to continue posting updates of Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts because it makes me feel optimistic that I want the series continue to shine as long as I have more ideas to come up with. With the sixth omake going to take place on the day after Christmas, I'll have to prepare anything that will cap off the year 2021 with the last sets of updates for the year 2021 ready to be posted in a few days. So, hopefully, you'll be thrilled to see a lot of those before your very eyes as I'm ready to fire it up to post new updates of Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts!:D Also, if you're not reading the previous update, then, I recommended you to read it before or after reading today's update because it seems that the view counts didn't progress through once again, but I'm still confident that it's going to progress again as soon as it's going to bloom again. Hopefully, it'll be amazing that this series will continue to bloom because you're here to bless and shine everyone that had appeared in this series!;) Now, let's move on to the birthday corner to see who are celebrating their birthdays before moving on to today's update!:) Yesterday (December 14) was the birthday of Yuki Hanzōmon, a member of Tsukikage from RELEASE THE SPYCE. Yuki is a third year high school student and acting as the leader of Tsukikage. She is in charge in training with Momo Minamoto (CV: Yukari Anzai), which leads to the two becoming closed with each other. And on the other hand, tomorrow (December 16) will be the birthday of Kanata Konoe of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club from Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. Kanata is a third year high school student from the Nijigasaki Academy High School, belonging to the life design course, which her major is mainly cooking, and a member of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. She always looks sleepy and unmotivated because she can’t able to study hard, which causes her to leave the group at first, but she comes back when she was able to repair her exam scores and study well. In the anime, she is very sleepy and she had a part-time job to help her household. Although she was confused that the club had been abandoned, she couldn’t contribute to the reformation of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, but she did rejoin after the reformation of NijiGaku and continued to be a school idol. She was stiff and could hardly be defeated by long-seat forward bending. Kanata had a younger sister Haruka (CV: Kaede Hondo), a first year high school student from the Shinonome Institute. I was fascinated to see Kanata so cute, compared to fellow NijiGaku members Ayumu Uehara (CV: Aguri Ōnishi), Shizuku Ōsaka (CV: Kaori Maeda) and Emma Verde (CV: Maria Sashide), due to her being complex and kind to her fellow NijiGaku members and she expresses gratitude to them with her smile. Of course, she’s also a member of QU4RTZ, composed of her, Emma, Kasumi Nakasu (CV: Mayu Sagara) and Rina Tennōji (CV: Chiemi Tanaka). Yuki is voiced by Manami Numakura, who is also a member of THE IDOLM@STER Series, voicing for Hibiki Ganaha, while Kanata is voiced by Akari Kitō, one of my favorite seiyus of NijiGaku. In a coincidence, Akari and Kaede were born in Aichi Prefecture alongside Aguri with Akari and Kaede coming from Nagoya. Belated happy birthday, Yuki, and advanced happy birthday, Kanata!:) And before you’ll read this update, this one will be dedicated to Ayumu Murase, Fumiko Uchimura, Hisako Kanemoto and Madoka Asahina. Ayumu had celebrated his birthday yesterday (December 14) while both Fumiko and Hisako will be celebrating their birthdays tomorrow (December 16). Born in the United States, Ayumu is the voice actor of Iruma Suzuki from Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun, Shoyo Hinata from Haikyu!!, Riku from Show by Rock!!, Taishi Kawasaki from My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU, Toru Muhyo from Muhyo and Roji’s Bureau of Supernatural Investigation, Luck Voltia from Black Clover, Kazuki Yasaka from Sarazanmai, Kaoru Yui from Ace of Diamond Act II, Kakaru Keshi from Kakushigoto, MitsukI Fujimoto from Ikebukuro West Gate Park, Tori Himemiya from Ensemble Stars! and Kokoro Hanabusa from I-Chu: Halfway Through the Idol. Coming out from Kagoshima, Fumiko is the voice actress of Ren Miyazawa (Unlimited Fafnir) and Mavis von Austien (Didn’t I Say to Make My Abilities Average in the Next Life?!). Hailing from Kurashiki, Okayama, Hisako is a voice actress and singer who took part of Afterglow, a girl band group from BanG Dream!, as she voiced Tsugumi Hazawa. She also voiced various characters including Erina Nakiri (Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma), Itsuki (Love Live! Sunshine!!), Lisa Highwalker (Unlimited Fafnir), Squid Girl (Shinryaku! Ika Musume), Karen Tendou (Gamers!) and Keine Kanzaki (High School Prodigies Have It Easy Even in Another World!). And last but not the least, born in Chiba, Madoka is the voice actress of Nene Sakura from NEW GAME!, Asumi Kominami from We Never Learn: BOKUBEN, Karen Kino from Kaguya-sama: Love is War, Fumika Mori and Kinako Mitarai from BanG Dream!, Sumire Takagawa from Teasing Master Takagi-san and Jessica Amet from The Misfit of Demon King Academy. I hope that those four will continue making progress of their voice acting career, especially to Hisako, who had a great music career as well!;) Happy birthday, Fumiko, Hisako and Madoka!:) Now, onto the 99th side chapter of the Red Section Series featuring the New Camellian Dragons!:)

We’re almost there in reaching 100 chapters in a side volume as there will be another milestone in the books when I’ll be posting the 100th update of Red Section Series, but for right now, I’ll be posting the 99th side chapter of Red Section Series as it will be focused on not only the New Camellian Dragons, but it will be joined by their red-colored relatives and Hiroko Iribe, the cousin of Kana Kawasumi and a member of the Bravehearts of Sawara. In this update, the members of the New Camellian Dragons and their friends will be sharing to their relatives about their past experiences when they were travelling to Fukuoka through vacation as well as how they have become friends with Hiroko. It’s going to be more of a braveheart connection between them as right before they have joined the Bravehearts of Ōta, they have met Hiroko, who had just joined the Bravehearts of Sawara at the time of their formation. Hopefully, you’re all excited for this because it will be awesome to see their secrets and moments that will shine you for sure!;) Get ready to bloom, prosper and smile with them because here comes the 99th side chapter of the Red Section Series with the title, “A Fantastic Road Trip to Remember Between the New Camellian Dragons and Their Friends”!

“You see, two years ago, the plan of going to Fukuoka was made by Kana Kawasumi, whose maternal side had roots from Fukuoka, specifically her mother Kayoko Hoshiyama came from Sawara” said Hanako.

“Kana had visited Fukuoka for her winter vacation with her family ever since she was born and she had been blessed and inspired by her relatives” said Yūto.

“That’s right, guys! I was able to visit Fukuoka many times to take my break from my studies and I was so blissful that they have motivated me because they don’t want to let me down for sure!” said Kana.

“Wow! I can’t believe that you must have relatives in Fukuoka!” said Shigemori.

“You must have your own pride to represent for your relatives because you’re more determined to make them proud” said Minako.

“I have to say that you’re flanked by them when they have met you every year” said Itsuko.

“Yes, I am! My mother had used to live in Fukuoka during her youth days before moving to Tokyo to enter college. Then, she got married to Tōma Kawasumi, who was working in the Haneda Airport as a staff member of the accounting department. Of course, she had used to visit Fukuoka a few times when she was invited by her relatives to attend the reunion. The reunion was such as a nice event for my relatives that they have met with each other, especially that they have their own memories to create with” said Kana.

“Oh, that’s very interesting! I can’t believe that your mother had been blessed by her relatives in her former hometown!” said Shigemori.

“I’m so surprised that your mother had made friends with them because they’re close with each other through her family” said Minako.

“That means that you must be more determined that you have met your relatives from that side” said Itsuko.

“Yep! The Hoshiyama clan had been originated in Nishiirube, led by its patriarch Tomohiro Hoshiyama and his wife Yoshino, whom that they were my maternal grandparents. They have a wealthy family with 8 children and its oldest child Tomoyuki becoming a director of Japan Air Lines. My mother is the sixth of the eight, but also the youngest of the 3 daughters of Tomohiro and Yoshino” said Kana.

“Ah, I see!” said the former members of the Kasuragi Elementary School basketball team.

“I can’t believe that you’re a blessed girl, Kana-san!” said Mitsuhisa.

“You must be more determined to represent that clan through your mother” said Ichiei.

“I’m delighted that your clan had blessed you with their blessings!” said Nobumori.

“It seems that you’re looking confident to make them proud ever since you had been part of the Kasuragi Elementary School boys’ basketball team” said Tsuneyasu.

“I’m very happy to see your pride getting developed, thanks to them!” said Tokiko.

“You’re very compassionated to honor that clan because you’re one of them!” said Tomomi.

“Of course, I agree with those! Thanks, guys! I had been part of that clan through my mother because I want to represent them through my compassion and faith. I had been bestowed by them when they’re supporting my basketball career, which means that they want to groom me to shine. I like the way they did for me to make sure that I will not lose my willpower and so, it feels great that I had always remembered them through my hearts. That’s why it feels great that I had been a member of that clan, so that I will be able to get my blessings from my relatives not only that I’m humble enough to show some compassion and faith to them, but I’m always determined to make the difference for everyone on my side” said Kana.

“Well, you’re surely a great girl that you had never lost your pride simply because you want to be more compassionated to your relatives on your side” said Mitsuhisa.

“Everyone is here to cheer for you because you’re always coming out with your auras to shine” said Tsuneyasu.

“Hopefully, you will keep this up to make them feel comfortable for sure!” said Tokiko.

“Yes, I will, guys!” said Kana.

“I have a question, Kana-san. How did you plan on going to Fukuoka with your friends?” said Naruhisa Tsukiyama, a first year high school student from the Ōmori High School and the cousin of Toshihiro Kanzaki.

“Yeah, I wanna know about this!” said Saaya Sekigawa, a second year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Chinami Itagaki.

“Me too! It will be awesome that you’re gonna tell us!” said Hiroya Sekigawa, a first year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Chinami Itagaki. He’s also the brother of Saaya Sekigawa.

“Okay, then! I will explain this!” said Kana.

“Okay!” said Naruhisa, Saaya and Hiroya while the rest of the relatives of the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons are excited about this, especially Yūshi and Aika are looking forward to see how Kana worked on that plan.

“So, as the summer break begins, I was wondering about what to do on that time when I was received a message from my relative named Hiroko Iribe, the daughter of my aunt Hitomi Iribe. She said that she was inviting me to a youth gathering at her home in Nishiirube” said Kana.

“Hmmm… this is very interesting, Kana-chan, but I don’t know who that Hiroko girl is. Can you tell us?” said Akari Nishizaki, a third year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Hanako Itō.

“She’s a sixth grade elementary school student from the Umehama Gakuen Elementary School and a member of the Bravehearts of Sawara” said Kana.

“WHAT?!” shouted the relatives of the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons.

“No way!” exclaimed Naruhisa.

“You got to be kidding me!” reacted Saaya.

“That’s so surprising!” added Hiroya.

“I’m shocked to see that coming!” shouted Akari.

“I can’t believe this!” exclaimed Michihisa Nozaki, a second year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Akane Takenaga.

“This girl is a member of that group?!” reacted Masayuki Sato, a first year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Keisuke Sato.

“There’s no way that this girl is a braveheart, I tell you!” added Misaki Kutaragi, a second year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Ayaka Kutaragi.

“Yeah! Not only that you’re the cousin of that girl, but you might be a braveheart just like her!” said Kenjiro Kamiguchi, a third year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Momoe Nagashima.

“This is very surprising, Kana-san!” shouted Shinichi Kamiguchi, a second year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Momoe Nagashima. He’s also the younger brother of Kenjiro Kamiguchi.

“I can’t believe it! She’s very determined to you, to be honest!” reacted Shigeyuki Iwase, a first year high school student from the Ōmori High School and the cousin of Yūto Iwase.

“That girl is very special if you ask me” said Maika Miyagi, a first year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Erina Miyagi.

“I didn’t see that coming!” exclaimed Yūshi.

“Yeah! She’s very blessed and inspirated to be part of that group, Yūshi-san!” shouted Aika.

“She must have her own representation of not only that she’s your cousin…” said Hisayo Shionji, the cousin of Yasushi Shionji.

“…but she’s a determined girl who wanted to create her future with her own ways to bless and inspire” added Kusuo Shionji, the cousin of Yasushi Shionji.

“That girl is very determined to make her hometown proud” reacted Mikiko Todoroki, the cousin of Yasushi Shionji.

“I have to say that your cousin had been grooming her way to make sure that she will shine her community no matter what!” said Munenori Kiyama, the cousin of Hinata Kiyama.

“Thanks to her pride and willpower that she had through her aura” said Fujiko Kuronuma, the cousin of Hinata Kiyama.

“That’s right, guys! Hiroko was a good cousin of mine who had been an ambition of becoming a director of an airline company, so that she can assist everyone to have them a great day while taking flight” said Kana.

“Of course, she had been interested in travelling around, especially that she had visited numerous places in Kyushu and Okinawa” said Noa Torihara, a third year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Kana Kawasumi. Noa’s mother Sena and Kana’s father Tōma are siblings.

“That’s why she always like to travel with her friends even in a young age like that” said Itsuki Torihara, a first year middle school student from the Kasuragi Middle School and the cousin of Kana Kawasumi. He’s also the brother of Noa Torihara due to his name being a unisex name.

“Ah, we get it now” said the relatives of the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camelilan Dragons.

“So, I guess that this girl had been motivated with her dreams to catch up with” said Naruhisa.

“I’m very grateful for that girl because she’s so determined that she want to show how it’s done by working hard as a student” said Saaya.

“It feels great that she will end up getting earned if she had done something big for her family and friends” said Hiroya.

“That girl had been so generous to represent that braveheart group because she’s dazzling her way to bless and inspire the community” said Akari.

“Yes, indeed!” said Kana, Noa and Itsuki.

“Then, that’s the time where all of us would be gathered” said Hanako.

“As Kana called us on what to plan on it” said Yūto.

“By that time, most of us were coming from the Dragons of Ōta, which is still existed when we have that road trip” said Toshihiro.

“And according to the rulebook of our former group, anyone is allowed to take day-offs during the summer and winter breaks if they have the desire to take a relaxing break from being part of that group” said Chinami.

“Which means that we’re allowed to do anything that is not related to our group” said Ayaka.

“But it should be at least one week to take the day-off” said Momoe.

“So, we decided to plan on our road trip where we brought some brainstorming that we can use, so that it will be grateful for us to visit Fukuoka” said Akane.

“And everyone had agreed to this!” said Keisuke.

“Especially, you guys, who were always interested to get along with us because you’re all close friends, right?” added Erina.

“Yeah!” said the former members of the Kasuragi Elementary School basketball team.

“And thus, we decided to visit Fukuoka for five days from August 27 to 31 where we finally have a chance to meet Kana’s cousin Hiroko…” said Shimako.

“…and her relatives from the Hoshiyama clan…” said Yasushi.

“…for their youth gathering” said Hinata.

“Yep! The youth gathering had taken place on the fourth day, August 30 (Saturday), where we finally have a lot of moments that we never forget!” said Kana.

“Yeah, Kana-san! We have been thrilled to see what’s going on in that event!” said Mitsuhisa.

“That one was so much fun!” said Shigemori.

“It looked like a birthday party…” said Tsuneyasu.

“…or a Christmas party where they made so many moments to create with!” said Tokiko.

“I’m very fascinated when your cousin had greeted us in a big welcome!” said Minako.

“Her fun and thrilling personality fit well to make sure that she will never let us down for sure!” said Itsuko.

“Yes, she was! My cousin had just joined the Bravehearts of Sawara as one of the first members of that group, which was formed alongside the four other braveheart groups including the first braveheart group to be formed, the Bravehearts of Fukuoka” said Kana.

“Hiroko had been a great organizer with the help of her siblings because she wanted to enjoy her day after she officially joined the Bravehearts of Sawara” said Hanako.

“Which means that she became so blessed that she had finally taken part of that group even in her young age” said Yūto.

“I agree with that, guys! When Hiroko had been dazzling her way to show that she’s a compassionated girl, I was so fascinated that she had been humble and confident to make us feel good!” said Tsubasa.

“She’s very thrilled without a doubt because she can make exciting moments in her own ways!” said Ichiei.

“I hadn’t seen a girl like that before when it’s my first time to meet her, but I have to say that she’s very generous to bless us” said Nobumori.

“Of course, she had a desire to make friends with anyone is close to her just like how she did to her friends from the Bravehearts of Sawara” said Tomomi.

“Yeah, that’s true, guys! Hiroko had been motivated to be part of the Bravehearts of Sawara and she had been more thrilled to get along with her friends by making fantastic activities including hobbies that she had” said Kana.

“She’s always leading her way to make sure that her friends will not let her down because they’re very humble to do so” said Noa.

“And so, she started to get herself earned when Takahiro Nishizawa, the leader of the Bravehearts of Sawara, had been fascinated to see what she had done including her skills as a basketball player when she is aiming to become a member of the Umehama Gakuen Elementary School girls’ basketball team last year” said Itsuki.

“Oh, I see that point now! So, she must be very determined to represent her group with her pride and willpower” said Yūshi.

“That girl is so nice that she had been very compassionated to her friends that she had” said Aika.

“I believe that she’s a great braveheart because she’s so determined to bring happiness into her community” said Hisayo.

“I have to say that she’s so delighted that she wanted to make her community stepping up by letting them shine” said Kusuo.

“Her community had been full of blessings when she had joined that braveheart group” said Mikiko.

“Which means that she had made everyone being thrilled with blessings that they have” said Munenori.

“It feels great for her because she had her confidence being paid off and so, she can do whatever she wants along as she is ready to shine for more” said Fujiko.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Kana, Noa and Itsuki.

“Speaking of which, she’s gonna be here to share with us!” said Kana.

“Oh, really?!” surprised the cousins of the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons.

“Yep! She’ll be ready to make yourself comfortable because she will recall her memories with us!” said Kana.

“Yeah!” said the cousins of the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons while Noa and Itsuki are giving them their smiles.

A few seconds later, Hiroko Iribe and her friend Miyoshi Okuda, the leader of the Periwinkle Ribbon, would appear to meet with her cousins and their allies.

“Hi, everyone!” said Hiroko Iribe. She is resembled to Kagetsu Hakamada, but her hair is periwinkle with a few violet hairs on her bangs.

“Hi, Hiroko-san!” said the members of the New Camellian Dragons and the former members of the Kasuragi Elementary School basketball team.

“No way!” shouted Naruhisa.

“It can’t be!” exclaimed Saaya.

“She’s actually her!” reacted Hiroya.

“I can’t believe this!” added Akari.

“You must be the cousin of Kana-san?” asked Shigeyuki.

Hiroko would give the cousins of the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons a smile. “Yep! Miyoshi and I came along with my fellow friends from the Bravehearts of Sawara to stay here for at least three days and two nights, which means that we want to spend a little vacation here in Tokyo while fascinating ourselves to buzz around for the Fuchsia and Celadon Week.”

“Well, I’m determined that you have a wonderful time to stay here for a few days, Hiroko-san” said Shigeyuki.

“I’m so surprised that you’re here to attend this great banquet” said Misaki.

“You must be changed ever since you had been part of that group!” said Kenjiro.

“However, your determination is still being paid off!” said Shinichi.

“I have to say that you’re much cuter just like your cousin!” said Yūshi.

“You’re very blessed and inspired to make sure that your friends will never let you down” said Aika.

“Yes, I am, guys!” said Hiroko.

“Now that she’s here, can you continue this conversation?” asked Tokiko.

“Sure, I would be glad to, Tokiko-san!” said Kana before continuing the story about what happened to her visit with Hiroko. “When we met with each other, we started to have some fun like playing board games.”

“As well as different hobbies of hers that we have been fascinated” said Erina.

“Such as visiting the park to relax” said Akane.

“Riding with bicycles” said Keisuke.

“And making handcrafts that we displayed in her room” said Tsubasa.

“That’s right, guys! But that not all, we also spend together by watching movies” said Hiroko.

“Movies are one of the interests for our group!” said Miyoshi Okuda.

“Ah, yeah! We remember that!” said the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons.

“That one was totally boring, to be honest” said Toshihiro.

“But it feels great to do that together!” said Chinami.

“The grinding that we have had been paid off” said Yūto.

“We’re always thrilled to have those” said Ayaka.

“Which means that we have so much fun watching different titles every night” said Momoe.

“I’m feeling chilled when we have done that!” said Shimako.

“I have to say that you’re good at picking movies that made us feel relaxed” said Yasushi.

“You’re more confident that you have shown your smiles” said Hinata.

“Yeah, of course! Kana and I have our own way of fascinating ourselves in different ways” said Hiroko.

“Like we have a road trip to Kitakyushu on the third day. Remember that?” said Kana.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons.

“I love road trips!” said Mitsuhisa.

“It made us more fun to get into this!” said Nobumori.

“That’s the part where we have so much thrills to fascinate with!” said Shigemori.

“Especially that we visited numerous places out there!” said Tsuneyasu.

“Such as the parks…” said Minako.

“…Shopping malls…” said Itsuko.

“…and restaurants!” said Tokiko.

“Kitakyushu is one of the populous places in the northern part of Kyushu with a lot of people getting themselves thrilled to enjoy there” said Ichiei.

“So many memories that we have been treasured when we get there!” said Tomomi.

“That’s right, guys! We also looked around to see something exciting out there!” said Kana.

“We visited the gardens, temples and shrines in that city, which is cooler than just staying at my home. Isn’t that right, guys?” said Hiroko.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons and the former members of the Kasuragi Elementary School basketball team.

“I have a question, Hiroko-san. How did you fascinate yourself when you’re outside with your cousin and her friends?” said Hisayo.

“Yeah! We believe that you have been interested into exploring places” said Kusuo.

“Which is why you’re more of an explorer, I tell you!” said Mikiko.

“Well, I always like travel different places just like how my cousins did. All I want is to fascinate a lot of places that I want to visit because it made me feel motivated that I want to take a flight to witness those. My favorite thing when it comes to those is that I always visited some shrines to thank the gods for a true blessing and wisdom. After I joined the Bravehearts of Sawara, I began to focus on prospering my own friends including Miyoshi because this is what I did to bless and inspire everyone. You guys should do the same thing if you want to bless and inspire your community for yourselves” said Hiroko.

“Well, we’re not part of any group that is associated to the Bravehearts of Ōta” said Hisayo.

“But we’re more supportive to our cousins who have wanted to shine their own way” said Kusuo.

“As they want to act themselves in becoming bravehearts in the future” said Mikiko.

“We always admired them, especially to the Gosanaki Trio, because we believed that they have their own dreams to make up with” said Munenori.

“Especially that they’re helping the community to step up and elevate themselves to make them feel comfortable and prospered” said Fujiko.

“Oh, I see! I’m always expressive when it comes to giving everyone some blessing because it benefited me to cherish my friends on my side as well as my relatives that I have prospered the most” said Hiroko.

“That’s right, Hiroko-san! Our group had been determined to support you because you came here to represent for your braveheart group” said Miyoshi.

“Same goes to me, cousin, because I have always inspired you to groom your community to make them feel comfortable and prospered” said Kana.

“We always believe in those things because we want to fascinate ourselves to make sure that you will never let us down” said Noa.

“That way, it will be more a beautiful way to shine for your braveheart group with your smile” said Itsuki.

“Yeah, I agree with that, guys! I’m a generous member of the Bravehearts of Sawara and of course, I can do whatever I want to make sure that my friends on my side will be ready to make me thrill for more! You can count on me since you’re all related to me, right?” said Hiroko.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons and their allies.

“I’m very impressed that you had your own ambition when you have represented your braveheart group because you have been grooming your way to bless your community” said Maika.

“I like the way you have worked hard by earning yourself to be part of that group” said Michihisa.

“That makes you feeling blissful and joyful that you have been prospering your friends out there with your smile” said Masayuki.

“Thanks, guys! I have done that ever since I joined that group and it became more blooming for me to make my community having their blessings and inspirations to prosper with. That way, they know that they will start creating their own future for sure” said Hiroko.

“When Hiroko led her way alongside her fellow friends from the Bravehearts of Sawara including Yuno Furukawa, she had been doing a great job to make hopes and dreams in our community, especially that me and my friends from the Periwinkle Ribbon have been impressed her. As a result, we started to support her, especially she had built her circle of friends for us known as the Nishiirube Periwinkle Section, which is composed of the close friends of Hiroko and the groups that are coming from Nishiirube and its neighboring areas and its main color is periwinkle” said Miyoshi.

“Oh, that’s very cool! I didn’t know that you have a lot of friends on your side, Hiroko-san!” said Maika.

“I’m so surprised with that because you’re more of a good braveheart out there!” said Michihisa.

“I guess that you had been delighted that you have them on your side, so that you will be able to work together with them to make your community shining after all!” said Masayuki.

“Yeah, you’re right about that, guys!” said Hiroko.

“What are the other moments that you have when you guys have gotten along with each other?” asked Naruhisa.

“Well, when we gotten along with each other, we used to play some water guns while chilling out over the afternoon” said Hiroko.

“This is the part where we have been running around through an activity where we have so much fun battling against each other” said Kana.

“It’s like how we have our stamina acceleration being improved in a training” said Akane.

“Most of us are very good in running the court without hesitation” said Keisuke.

“We can do those if we want to dazzle ourselves with your moves to shine” said Erina.

“Oh, I see what you’re doing with her!” said Naruhisa.

“Sounds like you have some special training out there back when you’re aiming to be the best for your team” said Saaya.

“I say that you guys are looked trained well by that time” said Haruya.

“It made your tendencies and skills being improved while running in the court” said Akari.

“I believe that you will get used to it if you want to shine your way to make yourself going into the beat” said Shigeyuki.

“Yes, we are!” said the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons and the former members of the Kasuragi Elementary School basketball team.

“It’s what our head coach Takanori Kanamori said” said Mitsuhisa.

“The more that you have been able to groom yourself…” said Tsuneyasu.

“…the better that you will become stronger with your tendencies and skills being improved for more” said Tokiko.

“Most of us have followed this, so that we will be more formidable to run the court very well” said Toshihiro.

“It’s our mission to have a strong and dominant team in Ōta, but we can’t able to accomplish this because we don’t have a great potential yet” said Chinami.

“The reason for that is because we’re just very young to run our own court” said Hanako.

“Which means that we can’t able to dominate the entire city until we’re all good to go” said Yūto.

“That’s why we have to keep going until we’re finally ready to run our own court for ourselves” said Shimako.

“It’s what we do to make sure that our mind, body and hustle will come out to make sure ready to go” said Yasushi.

“We’ll do whatever it takes to make us stronger no matter what!” said Tsubasa.

“That way, we’ll have a lot of potential that we will get for sure! Right, guys?” said Kana.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons and the former members of the Kasuragi Elementary School basketball team.

“I have to say that you had some secret training out there to make sure that you’re all good go for the competition that you’re competing” said Maika.

“I guess that you guys are very determined at that time to make sure that you’ll be ready to run your place” said Michihisa.

“I believe that even you don’t have your potential, you still have the position to shine with your dazzling skills, so that you will be able to perform a lot of moments that you’re gonna take” said Masayuki.

“That’s what the basketball atlhetes do to endure themselves and show their mind, body and hustle to prove worthy that you’re good at it” said Misaki.

“Everyone will have high hopes if you have been doing a great job to run well, but sometimes, there are a lot of challenges that you have to overcome” said Kenjiro.

“Since then, you’re all doing great to make sure that your team will be ready to get unstoppable for sure!” said Shinichiro.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons and the former members of the Kasuragi Elementary School basketball team.

“That’s why our stay in Fukuoka was one of the special trainings that we have because we want to make us worthy in making Kasuragi as one of the teams that are about to have brighter chance of winning a district championship” said Kana.

“But even though we failed to win both tournaments because we didn’t able to overcome some opponents that are unstoppable” said Hanako.

“And so, we have to do it over again until we’ll finally have a chance to prove ourselves to be dominant” said Yūto.

“After we have worked hard in our special training with Hiroko, we finally contemplated ourselves that we want to do anything to shine” said Shimako.

“Yeah, winning isn’t everything because you have a lot of things to show how truly we are to run this place” said Yasushi.

“However, we still have our own confidence in our hearts as we don’t want to give up very early” said Hinata.

“Everyone will be looking forward to have brighter future in our hands because we should be more prepared on the upcoming competitions to come” said Erina.

“We have to make sure that we still have our energy to run the court through our skills that we have” said Akane.

“To make sure that we’ll be able to prove ourselves that we’re here to take care of business” said Keisuke.

“We always believe in our compassionated hearts and blissful smiles because we want to make Kasuragi a team that had been running for the past 5 years” said Ayaka.

“Even though that our brave pioneers have moved on to their new paths, we still have our own way to bless them” said Momoe.

“That’s why we will not let them down until we finally got earned for ourselves to rule basketball in our hometown” said Chinami.

“No matter which opponent that we’re going to take on, but we should be ready to expect new things to come to run our place” said Toshihiro.

“Everyone in Ōta believed that Kasuragi will be one of the teams that are about to rise in the future, but it had been foreshadowed by different teams that they’re getting stronger and formidable” said Tsubasa.

“That’s why we will be ready to step up and shine with our dazzling moves” said Tsuneyasu.

“So that, we will be ready to make our basketball career getting better and better” said Mitsuhisa.

“You can count on us because this is what we run our place. Right, guys?” said Tokiko.

“Yeah!” said the cousins of the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons.

“After that, we have gotten along with each other for dinner outside where we have been enjoying ourselves with smiles and joys being made” said Hiroko.

“It was so great that we have been together with each other, especially to my cousin, because it was our best moment that we have as we have been very confident to develop our friendship with each other” said Kana.

“That’s why our road trip to Fukuoka had been a glorious one that we will never forget!” said Yūto.

“By the end of the day, we will always remember this through our hearts because we’re very compassionated to everyone on our side to make sure that we will bless and inspire everyone in our community” said Hanako.

“Yeah!” said the cousins of the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons.

“It’s so nice that we have our moments when we gotten along with you, Hiroko-san, because I’m always blissful when you come out to bless me and my friends” said Kana.

“Yes, of course, cousin! I always like to do a lot of things to make everyone feeling comfortable and prospered. I have my harmonious side to make me compassionated and I will never let anyone down because I’m a member of the Bravehearts of Sawara.

“Well, you’re a one-of-a-kind relative, Hiroko-san!” said Itsuki.

“I hope that you will keep this up through your heart, so that you’ll be blessed by your friends on your side” said Noa.

“Yes, I will! If you need me for advice, then feel free to do so because I’m always determined to bless and inspire all of you” said Hiroko.

“Everyone is always blessed to cherish ourselves. That’s what the bravehearts do to make all of us prospered for a brighter future. Isn’t that right, guys?” said Miyoshi.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons and their allies.

“Anyway, if you’re thrilled with us, then we should go outside and gleam at the stars outside. What do you say?” said Hiroko.

“It will be awesome that we will make us shine for more!” said Miyoshi.

“Oh, yes, we will!” said the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons and their allies.

“I can count on that, Hiroko-san!” said Kana.

“Yeah! Looking at the stars would be great to cap off this night!” said Noa.

“And after that, we will have a lot of moments to share with like your personal life and the other things” said Itsuki.

“You bet!” said Hiroko before calling her relatives and their allies to get along with her. “Now, let’s go out and fascinate ourselves with the stars shining bright through the sky!”

“Yeah!” said the members of the Kasuragi Chapter of the New Camellian Dragons and their allies as they are leaving their tables to join with Hiroko and Miyoshi, so that they will go outside of the mansion to witness the stars shining bright through the sky. The fantastic memories of the New Camellian Dragons and their allies have been prospered their way to make sure that they will never forget those for themselves as their friendship with Hiroko, the cousin of Kana, had been blooming since their first encounter in Fukuoka two years ago. Now that they have met with each other again, they’re finally thrilled enough to make Hiroko feeling blissful and joyful, which means that they will continue their friendship with her for sure. Kana had been determined to make her relatives being blessed through her compassion and so, she will keep this up while being a member of the New Camellian Dragons to make them comfortable with their smiles through prosperity and benevolence.

UP NEXT: A Special Message from Kanata Konoe
 
A Special Message from Kanata Konoe

Hi, everyone! This is Kanata Konoe of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and it’s so nice that you’re almost there in celebrating my birthday, which will be tomorrow (December 16). I hope that you’re all excited for this because you’ll be ready to bring some compassion to make me thrilled when my birthday will be tomorrow! For today, I’ll be sharing about the connection circle of Moeko Higashikuni, a rival of Shinako Takanashi and a member of the Bravehearts of Minato, whose image color is purple, which is my image color, of course! For those who don’t know about the connection circle, then Kanata-chan will explain this to you, so that you’ll remember those when any of the members of NijiGaku will be sharing about the connection circle of any member of the Bravehearts of Minato for sure! Now, the connection circle is a special circle group that is exclusively to Minato and its neighboring areas where one member of the Bravehearts of Minato is connected through friend groups and allies that have been made and how they have developed their friendship with them. While you have already encountered the connection circles of nine members of the Bravehearts of Minato, this one will be very different and it’s all about Moeko as she’s very determined and motivated to represent for that group. I’m sure that you’ll be ready to see this because Kanata-chan will be ready to share this just for you! Moeko is very admired and uplifted when she came out to show her smile to everyone on her side, especially that she became friends with her fellow teammates from the Shushiba Elementary School girls’ basketball when she had joined that team the first time, which they have formed their own group known as the Amethyst Tear. Now that she had currently played for the middle school girls’ basketball team in her school, she finally grooved herself by showing that she’s ready to bloom with her thrilling moves. When it comes to her friends from the Amethyst Tear, she had been very compassionated to them with her smile, so that she’ll bless them, which reminds Kanata-chan being friends with my former schoolmates in Shinonome Institute before. Anyway, she became friends with Sayo Shiokawa, her best friend and vice leader of the Amethyst Tear. They have been interested in reading life books and journals that are related to cooking. Of course, Moeko is very good in cooking pastries and cookies just like Kanata-chan and my sister Haruka-chan when we baked those to our friends on our side. I’m happy to see Moeko and her friends from the Amethyst Tear getting along with each other because they have shown their compassion to shine themselves just like how Kanata-chan and my fellow club members from NijiGaku did in performing together through our smiles. On the other hand, Moeko would become friends with my classmate Masako Takayanagi of the Takayanagi Purple Butterly as they have been interested in donuts and cupcakes as well as collecting stickers and cleaning rooms. Their friendship had been developed as they have been able to meet each other during the weekend and they’re seemed to be resembled to my relationship with Haruka-chan, which I would love to see a yuri scene between, but of course, Moeko always got the desire to make them happy for sure! At the end of the day, when you met a braveheart like Moeko, she’ll be ready to take care of you through her rainbow, so that she’ll be able to giving you some thrills that you want, which I were here, I will be happy to comfort you after all. I hope that you will remember her because she’ll always stay positive and cheerful at all time and of course, she’ll be very generous to represent her braveheart group, which Kanata-chan will be proud of it as always! Now, the next connection circle that our school idol club will be sharing about will be a younger braveheart in Yuika Shinozaki, which will be explained by Setsuna Yūki and it will be posted next week on December 22 (Wednesday). Hopefully, when you’ll check back on that date, she’ll be explaining anything about her as well as connection with her friends on side and of course, you’re gonna like it! It feels great that you’re here to have a rainbow heart to thrill like Kanata-chan and I hope that you’ll be happy to make Kanata-chan cheerful when my birthday is coming up tomorrow! Until then, I’ll see you next time when we’ll meet each other again and keep your smiles with compassion, everyone!
- Kanata Konoe (CV. Akari Kitō)

“Most of us haven’t known about that because we’re more focused on making friends with our own” said Airi.

“Especially that some of us have been connected in our own way through different groups” said Hinata.

“For me, I haven’t seen that before, especially that your father didn’t mention about that either” said Mimi.

“I would be surprised if you will tell us about that because I love to gleam on something more secretive” said Kagetsu.

“Yeah, me too! We would be more thrilled to share that to us!” said Tsubaki and Hiiragi.

“It will be great that you will show something that you want to talk about that because I never seen that for myself” said Masami.

“This should be interesting, Subaru-san!” said Kazuko.

“I’m excited for this!” said Mizuki.

“I’m ready to decipher at those because I love your stories!” said Sayaka.

“This one will be something that we haven’t seen before” said Toshiko.

“Yeah, Toshiko! I have to say that Subaru had been more determined to share stories like that” said Riruka.

“Oh, I hope that this is going to be something that we want to explore with!” said Miyu.

“I will be happy if you can explore those to us as we want to gleam out there to see something fascinated” said Aya.

“That way, we will be awesome to look on those for ourselves!” said Rena.

“Yeah, you got it, guys!” said Subaru.

“Since we all know about that story before when you told us about this last week, then why don’t you give his allies some blessing when you will share this?” asked Keiko.

“That way, they will be ready to know the secrets that they have never seen before” said Mika.

“It will be amazing that you will be blessed and inspired by the end of this sharing once they have finally known about this” said Mieko.

“So that, they will get used on making friends with the other bravehearts like us” said Yasuhisa.

“Of course, I will, guys! I’m always very special to anyone who can bless and inspire me through their hearts and so, I would happy for you to summarize this if you want to” said Kazuhiro.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

“Man, you’re going to share that story to his allies, Kazuhiro-kun?” asked Masanori.

“They haven’t known about this because they’re from Ōta just like Subaru” said Tōru.

“Only some of your close friends have known about this” said Takahiro.

“It would be better if you give them some lecture on how you and Subaru have been friends based on different characteristics” said Akinori.

“It’s okay, guys! I already have my own mentality to remember those for myself. So, you better listen to this because it will make you shocked to see this” said Kazuhiro.

“Okay!” said Masanori, Tōru, Takahiro and Akinori.

“So, are you ready for this?” asked Subaru.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka and their allies.

“Great! I like it, Kazuhiro-kun!” said Subaru.

“Yeah! Now, let’s get this story on the road, shall we?” said Kazuhiro.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka and their allies as the sharing about Subaru and Kazuhiro’s special friendship begins.

Kazuhiro would start sharing about the introduction of his dual sharing with Subaru. “It was all started four years ago when I was trained by Ginga Hasegawa during summer time with my fellow friends in Fukuoka where we have some training for the Fukuoka Summer Circuit for the under-15 category. Ginga had accompanied you to greet me where we have gotten along with each other for an hour. Ginga had been connected with his friends in Fukuoka when he took part of an exploration team.”

“Yep! While he worked as an archeologist, he would coach you and your team that competed in that circuit where you have won that title, right?” said Subaru.

“Yes, indeed! Of course, this is only just the beginning of our first encounter, but a few days later, this is when we have our second encounter with each other” said Kazuhiro.

“Where we have stayed together in a park together” said Subaru.

“This is looked to be promising, Subaru-san! I’m surprised that you had stayed in Fukuoka while having a vacation with your family” said Tomoka.

“I have to say that you must be very generous to make friends with him” said Maho.

“Which means that you’re very determined to show your compassion to him” said Saki.

“Like how you did to your former friends in the Dragons of Ōta” said Airi.

“Oh! I’m fascinated that you had him as a friend at the start!” said Hinata.

“Yes, I am, girls! One thing that you find it very familiar is that my father and Kazuhiro’s father Kentarō were also friends too!” said Subaru.

“WHAT?!” shouted the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta.

“No way!” shouted Tomoka.

“You got to be kidding me!” exclaimed Maho.

“I didn’t know that this is what I’m expecting to see this!” reacted Saki.

“I’m shocked when I’m hearing this!” added Airi.

“Wow! That’s very surprising, oniichan!” said Hinata.

“I didn’t see that coming!” shouted Mimi.

“Yeah, Mimi-tan! He knew all of this!” exclaimed Kagetsu.

“That’s very shocking to us!” reacted Tsubaki and Hiiragi.

“I can’t believe that your father is friends with that guy’s father!” added Masami.

“I’m very surprised to hear about that familiarity!” said Kazuko.

“Yeah, me too! They know each other since then!” shouted Mizuki.

“I’m so shocked that this connection was traced all along!” exclaimed Sayaka.

“That’s very interesting, Subaru! I didn’t expect that you two have been known with this!” reacted Toshiko.

“I have to say that your friendship must be something special!” added Riruka.

“It feels like you have been very compassionated to him with the way you prospered him to be a close friend” said Natsuhi.

“I’m stunned that you two became friends as well as your father being friends too!” shouted Miyu.

“Yeah, Miyu-san! Those two have been on the same page since they’re both phenomenal!” exclaimed Aya.

“And they have also shown their mind, body and souls to run and shine” added Rena.

“I believe that you two have been more prospered enough through that first encounter and I’m always motivated when it comes to making friends like this” said Kentarō Iguchi.

“It feels great that your connection with him had been stupendous!” said Asumi.

“I have to say that you are very determined to bless him with your blessings, Subaru-san!” said Jun.

“It will be amazing that you have him from the start since you two have been working to become the best that they would be” said Megumi.

“Yes, indeed, guys!” said Subaru and Kazuhiro.

“We have the same aura of being ambitious and charismatic to run a place like we used to” said Subaru.

“But we have different plays and moves that we used to take over the court for ourselves” said Kazuhiro.

“One time when we’re only just the two of us, we did some practice before we have been joined by Kazuhiro’s teammates in the past” said Subaru.

“One of them is very familiar to you by the name of Seijirō Tsukamoto, who is still in my team this year” said Kazuhiro.

“Ah, I remember that guy! He’s one of the lethal shooters that come off like it’s lights out!” said Subaru.

“Yep! You got that right!” said Kazuhiro.

“Wait a minute, guys, who is Seijirō Tsukamoto?” asked Takumi Ōhata.

“I wanna know this guy!” said Naomori Abe.

“We haven’t seen him before!” said Ryōta Sugihara.

“It would be awesome to tell us about him!” said Mitsuhiro Nagakura.

“Seijirō is one of the members of the Kashii Gakuen High School boys’ basketball team as he played both shooting guard and small forward” said Masayo.

“He’s about 6’0” with about 6’5” in his wingspan” said Natsuko.

“He’s a one tough scorer that he can dazzle his way out” said Junko.

“We have him in our roster one of the players playing for the bench” said Naruhisa.

“That guy had been so solid that he can make threes all day” said Kenta.

“He’s very athletic with his potential getting higher and so, he’s a four-star prospect” said Seiichi Kitagawa.

“Wow! I can’t believe that this guy is so good!” said Takumi.

“I guess that he’s more like our senpai Daisuke Kojima” said Naomori.

“But he’s better than him with his better shooting efficiency” said Mitsuhiro.

“I’m very surprised that you had a teammate who is more of a shooter” said Seiichirō.

“That guy is going to make his opponents being fazed by his shots that are on fire” said Chihiro.

“He could make it to the professional league if he’s worthy to have his potential getting better” said Seijirō.

“Yes, he was!” said Masayo, Naruhisa, Kenta, Natsuko, Junko and Seiichi.

“When we have a game of street basketball, I was so surprised that you had been shining your way with your skills being efficient just like I am” said Kazuhiro.

“Yep! I have trained of my own through my father and I was able to lead my way to score more” said Subaru.

“You even made Seijirō ‘broke’ his ankles with your crossover pattern and aura. He said that you’re an amazing guy while striking with those moves” said Kazuhiro.

“Yes, of course! I have done that a lot of times, but I only used those when I battled against some guys that are more tough to beat” said Subaru.

“Well, you’re a good talent out there, Subaru-kun! You would have stayed longer in Fukuoka if you have planned to transfer to our school” said Naruhisa.

“We would have become stronger if you came along with us” said Kenta.

“Uh… I didn’t plan on that though because I came from Kirihara and I have transitioned myself to become the best player in Ōta” said Subaru.

“Oh, I see! I didn’t know that you have your own loyalty to earn with” said Naruhisa.

“You must be ambitious to run your own team like that” said Kenta.

“Kazuhiro had been doing a great job to make Kashii Gakuen a strong and formidable team to beat” said Seiichi.

“That’s right, guys! I have been determined to make Kashii Gakuen more of a dynamic team in the years to come, but I have to be more confident if I want to be the best prospect in the country” said Kazuhiro.

“I have to say that you had worked hard like how big guys have used to shine for themselves” said Subaru.

“People who have their potential getting high have their own skills to dazzle themselves” said Aoi.

“Being a player had their own ways to groove and shine because it will make you feel good to show how it’s done” said Kazunari.

“Like you’re proving to be the best in your city” said Banri.

“However, the difference is that you have been foreshadowed by other prospects from around the country that have been better than you” said Satsuki.

“So, if you want to make yourself worthy to be the best in the country, you have to work hard as long as you don’t want to get hurt” said Tae.

“Your athleticism had been paid off when you have done that to make sure that you’re always balling as always” said Kana.

“Proving yourself to be the best player in the country is a hard mission that you have to accomplish with, Kazuhiro” said Kentarō Iguchi.

“Which means that you have to make it through to the top with your own ways to shine if you want to be a phenomenal player to beat in your class” said Asumi.

“Once you will begin transitioning yourself to be the best player in the country, a lot of scouts and trainers not only from our country, but throughout the world are looking forward to scout you” said Ayame.

“To see if you’re worthy to make it to the professional league” said Aoba.

“The NBA and the EuroLeague are the most popular basketball leagues in the world, but there are a lot of national leagues in different countries that they have produced good players with mind, body and hustle” said Misaki.

“Since you’re more of an ambitious guy, why don’t you begin transitioning yourself to play hard, so that you will be able to have a chance to play professional as soon as possible? I always believe in you because you’re more of a phenomenal player” said Saori Aoyama.

“Hopefully, you will be more determined to be the best that you would be because you’re the leader of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka” said Nanami Togashi.

“Well, thanks to your advices, guys. I mean, I have to keep it hard if I want to be the best player in the country, so that I will be able to make myself phenomenal. Of course, you could count on me like I’m shining like a braveheart. Right, guys?” said Kazuhiro.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

“Well, you’ll always looked determined to be the best player in your hometown, Kazuhiro-san” said Satomi.

“I have to say that you’ll be grooming for more if you want to have your moves going to shine for more” said Masanori.

“You’re doing a great job in your career because you’re more of a phenomenal player” said Maiko.

“That’s because you’re the Blue Ace of Fukuoka” said Tōru.

“Anything that you can do make yourself determined and stronger through your compassionated heart” said Yuno.

“We always believe in you because you’re way better than us” said Takahiro.

“You’re always counting on us with your blessings” said Sumiko.

“It will be awesome that you’re going to make yourself dazzled for more, so that you will be able to lead your way to the top” said Akihisa.

“Yes, of course! I’m always shining my way with my smile because I can do whatever I want! Of course, you should do the same thing!” said Kazuhiro.

“Yes, we are!” said the members of the Royal Flush of Fukuoka and the Five Young Queens of Fukuoka.

“We’ll be perfect to run with our dazzling moves to shine!” said Satomi.

“That way, we’re all good enough to make our firepower getting lit!” said Masanori.

“Yeah, I agree! Hey, maybe, we should work together at some time before the competition comes, so that we’re all gonna work together to show how it’s done!” said Kazuhiro.

“Of course, we should!” said the members of the Royal Flush of Fukuoka and the Five Young Queens of Fukuoka.

“We would do that a few weeks before the start of the Interhigh prefectural tournament” said Masanori.

“Which will be good enough to work it hard and make ourselves dominant and formidable” said Tōru.

“We should be more dazzling if we want to prove to the others that we’re good at it!” said Takanori.

“It will be great that we will get better and better to make sure that we’re gonna run our own show beautifully” said Akihisa.

“Yeah, I agree with that! Let’s do that when the time is come for us to prepare for the competitions to come!” said Kazuhiro.

“Yes, we will!” said the members of the Royal Flush of Fukuoka and the Five Young Queens of Fukuoka.

Part 2 will be on the next post.

Volume 8.5: "Red Section Series" | Chapter 143: "From Fukuoka to Tokyo: The Secrets of the Friendship Between Subaru Hasegawa and Kazuhiro Hatakenaka"

Part 2

“Wow! I’m very surprised that Kazuhiro had been using his own mentality to his friends because he had shown his confidence without a doubt!” said Tomoka.

“I have to say that he’s a such a good leader when he entrusted them through his own way of confidence” said Mimi.

“It will be amazing if he can lead his own squadron in the future because he’s worthy to lead all the way” said Sayaka.

“That would definitely make him feel determined to have his loyalty being high for more” said Kana.

“Whenever you looked at his eyes, he’s very passionate to everyone like he had used to during the game” said Kentarō Iguchi.

“He will always give everyone a smile, so that he will make them blessed and inspired for sure!” said Asumi.

“Yes, indeed, guys! Kazuhiro was not only the leader of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka, but he had also led his own group of friends that gotten along with each other numerous times” said Keiko.

“He formed a group called the Blue and Orange Fukuoka Squad” said Mika.

“Which is composed of different braveheart leaders that are coming from our home prefecture, the Fukuoka Prefecture” said Toyoko.

“Not only coming from the cities of Fukuoka and Kitakyushu” said Kanako.

“But some of them are coming from its neighboring areas within those cities” said Rieko.

“They have been ambitious to be the best players in the country through showing their strength and prowess and dazzle themselves with special moves” said Meiko.

“Especially that they have their own abilities to use the Complete Synchronization Skills” said Reina Suginami. Reina is not related to Reiko Suginami of the Bravehearts of Setagaya and Setsuna Yūki of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club. She, her mother Sakuya Kokubo and her father Kazuhisa Suginami are coming from the Suginami clan of central Higashi, Fukuoka.

“They have also recruited non-bravehearts that are friends with them” said Aimi Morizawa, a first year middle school student from the Kashii Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

“Whether they’re rivals or not, based on their connection with them” said Mitsuyo Takiguchi, a first year middle school student from the Kashii Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

“They have been growing ever since they have been stronger enough to prove that they will take care of the court for themselves” said Sanae Koga, a first year middle school student from the Kashii Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

“We always believe in their hopes and dreams because they have their own way of opportunity to make themselves blessed and inspired as they want to build their future for themselves” said Fujie Iriki, a first year middle school student from the Kashii Gakuen Middle School and a member of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

“My sister Kazuko said that those guys are looking forward to have their brighter future once they have made it to college because they have their own hope to prove themselves as they’re good at it” said Kaori Haraguchi, who had an older sister named Kazuko, a third year middle school student from the Kashii Gakuen Middle School and also, a member of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

“If they want to dominate in their way, then they will have to work together in making themselves dominant and formidable through their dazzling and astounding moves” said Ayaka Kamimura.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta.

“We’re very optimistic to see them shine because they’re looking forward to make Fukuoka being one of the prefectures that have produced some of the best players to the next level” said Satomi.

“They want to be more dominant as they can be, so that they will be able to take over the court through their own willpower” said Maiko.

“Even they were foreshadowed by the other best players from different cities around the country, they don’t want to give up now by their strength and prowess to groove themselves” said Yuno.

“You will be surprised when any of them will be coming out to shine when they’re on their complete form” said Sumiko.

“They’ll do whatever it takes to show how it’s done with their auras coming out as they’re ready to unleash their great moves for themselves” said Keiko.

“Well, I would be surprised if they will be able to show their complete form because they have their own abilities to shine themselves whether you’re a scoring specialist or all-around player” said Aoi.

“They have to be more determined if they want to show their true formation because it won’t be done until you have your auras glowing around them” said Kazunari.

“Especially that they have to be more careful on their stamina” said Banri.

“Which is very important for them to take care of” said Satsuki.

“So that, they won’t get hurt during the game” said Tae.

“We believe that those players have their own charisma and mentality because they have to be mindful on what they should and what they shouldn’t” said Kirara.

“All they have to do is to find their way to shine if they want to take care of the court for themselves” said Saori.

“That’s the only way to make them stronger, so that they will have their ability to show their dazzling and astounding moves” said Ayame.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka and the Five Young Queens of Fukuoka.

“Every year, our prefecture had produced the best players, based on different categories” said Keiko.

“The media would predict on who will be the best players in the prefecture during the pre-season through the selection committee” said Miho Kumada.

“They will choose each one best player for each position to form their All-Fukuoka Team” said Hisako.

“But before they will choose the players to form that team, they have to analyze all players through scouting to see if this player is worthy enough to make it to the All-Fukuoka Team” said Sana.

“Then, they will name those based on the observation from the panel of writers to determine who will make it to that team” said Miwako.

“They would also pick those when it is the end of the season” said Mika.

“Where they will be forming the winter version of the All-Fukuoka Team” said Toyoko.

“It will be based on the stats that they have during the Interhigh and Winter Cup tournaments” said Hatsuko.

“They have also named players for special awards like the Breakout Player of the Year and the Most Improved Player” said Kaoru.

“They would also pick the names who will be representing Fukuoka for the National Sports Meet every fall” said Yō.

“Those guys will make themselves earned if they have their opportunity to represent for our hometown” said Yasuhisa.

“That’s why it’s so great that we have a lot of players that have been more potential and brighter future if they have been to shine themselves like the way they should be” said Norimasa.

“Hopefully, they will continue to develop themselves because this is their own time to step up as they’re rising themselves to become stronger and more formidable” said Moritaka.

“Ah, we finally understand that!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta.

“That’s why it will be amazing that we were fascinated to see those, especially that we have some of our members being part of it” said Masayo.

“They became earned for what they have done through their best performance” said Natsuko.

“Especially that they have big moments like game-winning shots and intense plays in the final seconds” said Junko.

“They know what to do to make sure that they will be doing their best to shine themselves” said Naruhisa.

“And of course, they will know that it’s their time to elevate” said Kenta.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta.

“Now, let’s get back into our secrets on our special friendship, shall we?” asked Kazuhiro.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka and their allies.

“So, during our second encounter, we visited the castles around Fukuoka” said Kazuhiro.

“Where we have fascinated them by the looks of those” said Subaru.

“So, you must be more of exploring different places to fascinate them” said Sayaka.

“You guys have learned about their history when you guys were in middle school” said Miho Miyamoto.

“Maybe, you would be fascinated to learn those because these places were the symbols of royalty and prosperity in our country” said Azumi.

“Yeah!” said Subaru and Kazuhiro.

“Oh, that’s good! My relatives have used to study those whey they’re in middle school. They were smart enough to learn those!” said Misako.

“Same thing to my cousins where they have been doing well in studying the history of our country” said Naoki.

“It’s so nice that you can look at how they stood in history in the past and then, you will explore and decipher for yourself” said Shun.

“They were more sacred and more royal when it comes to castles because they have their own rulers in the past” said Ken.

“That’s why you will be surprised when you have visited those, so that you will remember the history of those” said Shinobu.

“It will be great that your teachers have pulled a field trip on that one” said Sukehiro.

“Of course, we have that during my middle school days” said Kazuhiro.

“It’s so great that we have explored those before” said Subaru.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta.

“Aside from that, we have visited the biggest pizzeria in Higashi” said Kazuhiro as he referred it to the Italiana Fukuoka, the largest Italian restaurant in Fukuoka that produced pasta and pizza.

“We took a great break out there to eat some delicious pasta and pizza for dinner” said Subaru.

“Yeah, we know about this!” said Akihisa.

“The Italiana Fukuoka is one of the best places to eat for the Fukuoka people to eat pasta and pizza” said Takahiro.

“We love to see visit those when we have some great time to eat there when there’s a big gathering being held in that place” said Tōru.

“Any wealthy student can afford those to invite everyone to that place. They’re craved enough to fall in love to those” said Masanori.

“Yes, that’s true, guys! One time, we decided to buy a thin crust pizza for 8-10 people” said Kazuhiro.

“They were fascinated when they wanted to give a taste on those” said Subaru.

“Oh, that’s fascinating! I remember that time when my family and I have our dinner to eat some pasta and pizza. I was more interested in pasta with spices, which tasted good!” said Akihisa.

“For me, it has to be some garlic breadsticks” said Takahiro.

“I like to eat some extra cheese pizza for myself!” said Tōru.

“Mine is a spaghetti puttanesca” said Masanori.

“That’s nice choices that you like, guys, but honestly, I like to eat a vegetarian pizza. What about you, Subaru-kun?” said Kazunari.

“Well, I like to eat some pepperoni with meatballs pizza, which me and my friends have used to eat those once in a month” said Subaru.

“You got that right, Subaru! We’re so good when you ordered some pepperoni with meatballs pizza on your birthday!” said Aoi.

“That one was so good that I can eat a slice of that!” said Kazunari.

“I’m very surprised when you gave it to us!” said Banri.

“That pizza was so delicious when I took a bite on one slice to another” Satsuki.

“It feels great that you’re a good giver when it comes to treats like that!” said Tae.

“I have to say that you have given us the blessings that cherished us for more!” said Ayame.

“I always like your attitude of being expressive because you’re very motivated to make us feel good” said Aoba.

“You’re a one-of-a-kind guy, Subaru-san!” said Misaki.

“With your expressive smiles being paid off at any time that you have made us blessed and inspired!” said Kirara.

“Thanks, guys! I have entrusted you all the time when we have some great time to get along with each other and of course, you have counted on me when you guys needed help for something important” said Subaru.

“Yes, we are!” said Aoi, Kazunari, Banri, Satsuki, Tae, Ayame, Aoba, Misaki and Kirara.

“That’s why you’re the leader of the Bravehearts of Ōta, Subaru! You have a lot of blessings to bless with when it comes your time to shine!” said Subaru.

“Yes, I am, Aoi-san! I will continue making promises to everyone that they’ll be bloomed enough to get blessed and inspired as I will do anything to make our group running for more!” said Subaru.

“Yeah!” said Aoi, Kazunari, Banri, Satsuki, Tae, Ayame, Aoba, Misaki and Kirara.

“One thing that you didn’t know is that we built a campaign where my friends and I have started to inspire some people in our community by helping out through his/her smile” said Kazuhiro.

“It became more popular for them to move forward and start building their own dreams after they have inspired us” said Subaru.

“The campaign had been a success, which leads to most of them became close to the Bravehearts of Fukuoka” said Kazuhiro.

“On the other hand, I had to inspire this for my former group, the Dragons of Ōta, because they have been prospered just like how we used in Kazuhiro’s community” said Subaru.

“That’s a good activity that you have, guys! When I used to be part of the Dragons of Ōta, we used to inspire some students who wanted to make the difference with their own dreams to make” said Yui.

“They know that they want to shine for themselves and that’s why they wanted to get involved in the community to help out” said Ryōko.

“In Ōta, there are a lot of people who wanted to make their own dreams because they want to cherish themselves by having a great time to contribute and get earned for what they have done the most” said Kazue.

“We always believe on this because they wanted to show their compassion and courage with each other as they have been prospered all the way” said Yūichirō.

“If they want to get earned for their blessings being made, then they will do their best to develop themselves through their auras” said Naoko.

“As soon as they’re ready to shine with their smiles, they’re very determined to make themselves blessed and inspired” said Junsei.

“You’re right about that, guys! People who used to bless and inspire the community became more prospered to indulge themselves” said Mika.

“Whether they’re here to help the community out for a reason” said Toyoko.

“Or having your friends wanted to inspired someone like you” said Hatsuko.

“That’s why any braveheart can do their own way to shine without a doubt, so that they will be able to have a great friendship with one another” said Kaoru.

“When they have developed their friendship with each other, they can do whatever they want as soon as they will keep the community getting bloomed and prospered for sure” said Yō.

“Yeah, we agree!” said Yui, Ryōko, Yūichirō, Kazue, Naoko and Junsei.

“A lot of good people can make blessings and inspirations because they believe that they will take care of everything through their auras and that’s why they will be ready to prosper the community like they’re take a leap” said Kazuhiro.

“Now that’s a good example of what you’re doing with your community to shine, Kazuhiro-san! We have been expressive to help the community when they want to have a friendly community like we did” said Megumi.

“Our community had been prospered with smiles and peace, thanks to Subaru and his friends, as they built new hopes and dreams to everyone” said Jun.

“It had been changed ever since the start of the Fuchsia and Celadon Week where everyone had finally gotten their chance to contribute for our community to shine” said Suzuka Aoyama.

“It’s been grateful to witness those and hopefully, it will continue to develop with new hopes and dreams to be made for everyone” said Yasue Hanagata. She’s also the relative of Kōji Hanagata, the leader of the Bravehearts of Minato.

“Yeah, I agree with that, guys! My braveheart group had been running very well ever since I had been prospered by my friends out there. I can be very generous to do anything for my community to get blessed and inspired with my own ideas as I will do my best to make them happy and blissful” said Subaru.

“Of course, you are, Subaru-kun! I was surprised when you and your friends have done the community something unimaginable and it seems that you’re getting thrilled with everyone is entrusting you” said Kazuhiro.

“I have to say that you will be good enough to make your community more peaceful and more harmonious, so that they will be growing with their blessings” said Keiko.

“It’s a good thing that you can do that for them to be blessed and inspired” said Masayo.

“Just like we have used to in Fukuoka” said Naruhisa.

“Hopefully, you will be able to keep this up for sure!” said Yasuhisa.

“Of course, I will, guys! My friends will never let me down, thanks to their pride, courage and willpower! Right, guys?” said Subaru.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta.

“One thing that I forgot to mention is that we did some karaoke together. Isn’t that right, Kazuhiro-kun?” said Subaru.

“Oh, yes! I remember that time, Subaru-kun! This is where we have a wonderful night hanging out with you and my other friends during the night at an entertainment place” said Kazuhiro.

“Yes, indeed! Also, we did a few games to make it more entertaining like ‘Truth or Dare’ with the round of ‘Spin the Bottle’ twist” said Subaru.

“As well as the Charade Game” said Kazuhiro.

“Yeah, it was so much fun!” said Subaru.

“Of course not!” said Kazuhiro.

“Hey, we always got thrilled with that when you gave us that challenge!” said Masanori.

“You said that the loser will be forced to sing in front of us” said Tōru.

“Which is not very embarrassing, to say the least” said Takahiro.

“You have some fair rules to make it more fun, right?” asked Akihisa.

“Yes, I did! I want to make our night with Subaru something that it’s more harmonious and even he’s from Tokyo, he wanted to indulged himself while having his vacation with his father” said Kazuhiro.

“Oh!” surprised Masanori, Tōru, Takahiro and Akihisa.

“I see that point, Kazuhiro-kun” said Masanori.

“We should treat your friend in a fairest way” said Tōru.

“So that, he is feeling blissful that he had gotten along with us” said Takahiro.

“Any braveheart is a friend of a braveheart. Right, Kazuhiro-kun?” said Akihisa.

“Yes, that’s true” said Kazuhiro.

“There’s also a moment that we have brotherhood gifts that we give each other” said Subaru.

“Oh, yes! I remember that time, Subaru-kun! You gave me the mug with the gradient design of blue and red” said Kazuhiro.

“Yeah! Then, you gave me the wristband, which has four stars on it” said Subaru.

“Of course, it’s so cool that we gave each other’s gift to make our friendship getting better and better” said Kazuhiro.

“It made me feel blessed and inspired because giving gifts is a way to make bravehearts getting close with each other whether they’re near with each other or not” said Subaru.

“Yes, of course, Subaru-kun!” said Kazuhiro.

“I’m very happy that those two have known with each other since they have their own their blessings with each other” said Tomoka.

“They know that they will have their blessings to cherish for themselves” said Mimi.

“So that, they will be able to bless and inspire with each other through their smiles and joys” said Natsuhi.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

“The friendship between Kazuhiro and Subaru had been prospered ever since they have met with each other four years ago due to the fact that they have the same auras coming out from their mind, body and hustle” said Keiko.

“While Subaru was trained by his father all the time ever since he was a little kid” said Miho Kumada.

“Kazuhiro was also trained by Subaru’s father four years ago because the latter had been fascinated to see the former shining his way to the stardom” said Hisako.

“That’s the reason why Kazuhiro became known as the Blue Ace of Fukuoka and the Blue Phenomenal” said Sana.

“Because he had dazzled his moves to show that he can run the court for his team” said Miwako.

“Of course, we were also fascinated to see Subaru as well when he had used Kazuhiro’s moves during the tournament final of the Fuchsia and Celadon Dragons Tournament” said Mika.

“It was very remarkable to see him doing what our dear leader did” said Toyoko.

“We’re very surprised when Subaru had finally showed his true formation because he believed that he can shine through his own area” said Hatsuko.

“Sometimes, he had to use his true formation when he had an intense battle against his serious rivals” said Kaoru.

“I have to say that both Kazuhiro and Subaru have been shining with the way they have dazzled their moves, so that everyone will be fascinated to see them shining in the court” said Yō.

“They have their own mentality to run their teams through their pride and willpower because they have their opportunity to show how it’s done through their own strategy to make” said Yasuhisa.

“Subaru was very confident to take care of his team for himself, but Kazuhiro was more determined to give his teammates some energy to prove that they’re here to run it back” said Norimasa.

“Everyone knows that the leaders of different braveheart groups have their own abilities to run their teams without hesitation” said Kanako.

“Because they can make their teammates powering up with their auras getting glowed up” said Rieko.

“That would be their time to make big moments to rally their teams to victory” said Nao.

“Anyone can make the difference through different ways to groom their teams because they have a strong feeling of rallying themselves for victory like they have used to since Kazuhiro was instrumental in creating his own way of good teamwork” said Yasuya.

“The leaders of different braveheart groups have been doing a great job to make sure that they will not let their teammates down without a doubt” said Ritsuo.

“So that, they will be able to get it done without losing their pride and willpower for them to be stronger” said Natsuhisa.

“It had been applied to some bravehearts that have strong presence of using a mentality to make sure that they will have their confidence in proving themselves to take everyone on notice” said Rintarō.

“For example, Kazuhiro can take command on his teammates to use the Blue Wave Zone when they’re battling against the toughest teams in the prefectural competitions in Fukuoka” said Kentarō Uesugi.

“Or you look at Hidemitsu Oniki of the Bravehearts of Kitakyushu powering up with his aura to allow him and his teammates to synchronize themselves without hesitation” said Aimi.

“Another one is Bravehearts of Hakata’s Masanori Yasukawa, who hadn’t given up his flaming aura because he believes that his team can get some firepower to light it out against their opponents” said Mitsuyo.

“This would be the same as Tōru Matsushima, Takanori Nishizawa and Akihisa Miyazawa, who have been a terrific job in making their teams getting focused on stopping their opponents through their defensive routines through their head coaches” said Sanae.

“Then, you also have some other braveheart leaders in Fukuoka Prefecture that they can unleash their auras like they’re about to go on fire” said Fujie.

“Examples of those are Kazuyuki Takamoto of the Bravehearts of Iizuka, Kotaro Arimitsu of the Bravehearts of Kurume, Keiji Ikematsu of the Bravehearts of Kasuga and Hiroya Namiguchi of the Bravehearts of Asakura” said Kaori.

“You would also have other guys from our neighboring areas who have their own abilities to use their mentalities to take action against their opponents” said Mieko.

“Such as Kotaro Itahashi of the Bravehearts of Saga, Tomohiro Sekita of the Bravehearts of Ōita and Natsuhiko Fukuyama of the Bravehearts of Nagasaki” said Reina.

“These guys have been more formidable with their strategies being off the books when those have been used during game time” said Keiichi Ohata.

“They can make their teams more powerful when they’re about to synchronize themselves” said Norio Yuzawa.

“And they can pull off the victory without losing their energy and firepower” said Yūji Tanaka, the cousin of Miwako Tanaka.

“It became more thrilling to see how the leaders use their mentality through mind, body and hustle because they have their own ways to run like the way they used to be” said Masaki Takasago, the older brother of Norimasa Takasago.

“It had been something that the fans wanted to see something that can gleam themselves as nowadays, those guys can take the league on notice at any time they want” said Arisa Furihata.

“It’s more awesome that they can build their own strategy through the mentalities that they have from their head coaches” said Genta Tsujimoto.

“Hopefully, it will continue to flourish to make sure that they’re ready to run the court for themselves” said Ryōtarō Makihara, the cousin of Katsuhito Taniguchi.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta.

“That’s why our friendship between the two of us can be linked as something special to make us more formidable…” said Kazuhiro.

“…and developed because we’re more of being sensational to everyone. Right, guys?” said Subaru.

“Yeah, we agree!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta and their allies.

“Oh, that’s so nice to make your special friendship something that can empower yourself like you guys are on fire!” said Tomoka.

“It will be amazing that you would shine yourselves, so that you guys will be most sensational to run for a team of bravehearts running the court” said Natsuhi.

“Yes, for sure!” said Kazuhiro and Subaru.

“And that concludes our conversation, guys. It seems that we’re all blooming and prospering all the way, thanks to all of you” said Subaru.

“Including my friends from the Bravehearts of Fukuoka, who have made this event possible to make the development between our group and the Bravehearts of Ōta continuing to bloom once more” said Kazuhiro.

“Yeah, we agree! Thank you very much, Kazuhiro-sama!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Fukuoka.

“Now, I think that we’re going to keep celebrating this great banquet until the end because tomorrow will be the final day of the Fuchsia and Celadon Week” said Subaru.

“You said it, Subaru-kun! It will be the best day that we have gotten along with each other and of course, you’re all part of it!” said Kazuhiro.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka and their allies.

“For now, let’s have a wonderful night by enjoying this event…” said Subaru.

“…where we’re running together to bless and inspire everyone…” said Kazuhiro. Subaru and Kazuhiro would be joined by the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka and their allies as they shout together in unison. “…as one family of bravehearts!”

“Let’s do our best to keep this wonderful friendship alive!” said Subaru and Kazuhiro.

“Yeah!” said the members of the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka and their allies with their smiles being made for them to make Subaru and Kazuhiro feeling blessed and prospered to make the great banquet a success. It’s so great that the great banquet had been a success because everyone had been bloomed enough to witness the friendship between the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka, which they have been motivated to bless and inspire them with their smiles and joys. The penultimate day of the Fuchsia and Celadon Week would come to a close, but tomorrow will be more thrilling and more exciting as it will be the final day of that festivity where all blessings and inspirations are coming out to prosper Ōta for brighter future. The Bravehearts of Ōta are ready to make their community more blooming and prospering because they’re very harmonious to make everyone happy for sure.

UP NEXT: Updated Profile of the Bravehearts of Ōta
 
I have posted the profile of the Bravehearts of Ōta before three years ago, which it was only composed of most of the characters of the anime Ro-Kyu-Bu!, written by Sagu Aoyama. Now, the Bravehearts of Ōta had been expanded with more new members joining ever since they have found new friends and allies all over the ward of Ōta. And since this is the perfect time to celebrate the milestone of 100 chapters in a side series, I will be updating this profile right now!:D So, here is the newly updated profile of the Bravehearts of Ōta with image colors and new groups being created, which they are Team Fuchsia (composed of the first members of that group) and Team Amethyst (composed of the new members that joined after its first formation).

What a great way to cap off the great banquet with this special update as the Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka have finally unveiled the secrets of the two braveheart leaders, Subaru Hasegawa (Bravehearts of Ōta) and Kazuhiro Hatakenaka (Bravehearts of Fukuoka), where they have discovered some moments that are very sensational and blooming to make sure their friendship will continue to prosper for more. The great banquet had been a success with many people attending that event to witness the development of the friendship between the two braveheart groups, Bravehearts of Ōta and the Bravehearts of Fukuoka, as they're very blessed to see them getting close with each other, so that they'll be able to have their blessings to show up with when they have met with each other occasionally. It feels grateful for them that the two braveheart groups have put up a good event that will never forget and it's going to be fantastic that they're going to organize another big event like this again in the future.;) Their friendship would continue to bloom and prosper, so that they'll be able to keep it harmonious to be blessed and inspired for sure!:) It's so awesome that this special update will be very amazing to hit the milestone of 100 updates in a side series, but of course, I still have one more goal, which is to make Volume 8.5 the longest-running volume in Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts. Volume 8 had been lasted for 14 months while Volume 8.5 is currently running for 13 months and 15 days, which means that I have to wait for the milestone to be broken when Volume 8.5 will finally surpass Volume 8 for the longest running volume in history by next month and so, it's going to be awesome that you're gonna witness another milestone to happen very soon!;) So, thank you very much for witnessing this special update because you're all here to bless and inspire me and hopefully, this series will continue to prosper for another year once it reaches the year 2022!:)

Now, we still have 6 days remaining to reach Christmas, which will be on December 25 (Saturday), and just I posted the next schedule of new updates, it's going to be fantastic that you're excited for the next update because December 22 (Wednesday) will be the birthday of Tomori Kusunoki, the voice actress of Setsuna Yūki of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club from Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, and of course, it will be a birthday update as Setsuna and her fellow club members of NijiGaku will be getting along with Yuika Shinozaki and her friends from the Bravehearts of Minato in the Palette Town for fun and excitement to get along together. This next update will be more exciting to dive with because not only it's going to be a great day to shine, but it will make Tomori happy for her birthday to be blooming and harmonious!;) On the other hand, the sixth omake will be approaching next week (December 26) as this is going to be more harmonious to witness where the leaders of different braveheart groups in Tokyo Bay will meet each other to share about their own story with the Generations of Miracles. I hope that you're ready to witness all of those before your very eyes because it will be amazing to make this Christmas season to be jolly to dive and shine with them through your smile!:) I'll see you on December 22 (Wednesday) for the next update of Rooks, Knights and Bravehearts and happy 100 chapters of the Red Section Series, everyone!;)

A Special Message from Rina Tennōji

Hi, everyone! This is Rina Tennōji of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club and I’ll be talking about the fifth graders of the Bravehearts of Minato, co-led by Yuika Shinozaki and Masahide Yajima. You’re gonna see who they are as I’ll be explaining about them including how they have joined the Bravehearts of Minato and what their ambitions are. Now, one thing that I'm going to remind you is that this one will be served as a prelude to the next update that the author will be posting in three days on December 22 (Wednesday) and of course, you'll have to be aware of this because there are some spoilers in some parts that I'm going to share with. With that said, if you’re ready to gleam and shine to see this, then let’s get this topic on the road! Now what happened is that the Bravehearts of Minato had started to expand themselves by welcoming new members that they wanted to shine like them and of course, they have their own connections that they belonged with including those that are part of the Dream Pink and Aqua Group. Of course, the real story about how these fifth graders joined the Bravehearts of Minato is when they were invited by Ruriko Hosoda to visit the Tiger Sun Residence. That’s the part where they finally got welcomed by her to be part of the braveheart family in Minato. Ruriko said to me that Yuika and her friends are very determined to show their pride and courage because they wanted to make the difference just like how Shinako Takanashi and her friends did. You’ll be surprised those guys are looking forward to have good careers just like them because they want to shine their way with their own auras. These fifth graders have formed their own group known as Team Shinozaki-Yajima, composed of Yuika, Masahide, Ayaka Suzuhara, Sae Sekine, Nanako Uekusa, Airi Egami, Fuyumi Miyagawa, Junya Naganuma, Akihisa Sōma, Natsuhiko Hataoka and Shōhei Mizunuma. They have their own ambition to make: to shine with their own eyes to gleam. The reason for that is because they have inspired the members of the Hanzōsen Elementary School basketball team, who have been an amazing job in taking over the court through their own plays, and that’s why they wanted to do the same thing by joining that team and create their own game to dive with. The fifth graders have their own influence when it comes to friendship circles with Yuika, Ayaka, Airi, Masahide and Junya being focused on the motivating side because they’re friends with Setsuna Yūki while Sae, Nanako, Fuyumi, Akihisa, Natsuhiko and Shōhei have been influenced with the prosperous side when they have joined the Dream Pink and Aqua Group. Ruriko believed that those guys will have high hopes that they’ll make because they wanted to be like Shinako and her friends, so that they’ll be able to dazzle themselves with their moves and of course, they’re really motivated to take care of everything whether they’re in the court or in the classroom. Of course, they’ll be ready to step up and represent their hometown, so that they’ll have their blessings to create with as they’re pumping up to show their rainbow heart and prosper everyone on their side. It feels great that they have been able to join that braveheart group and hopefully, they’re going to have their smiles and thrills to shine up for themselves. Anyway, they’ll be expecting to be featured in the next update where our school idol club will be meeting with them in the Palette Town for some fun and excitement to gleam with. I hope that you’re all prepared to see this because this will be the first time to witness an update that is going to related to them and also, you’ll expect to see Yuika getting into her friendship with Setsuna. So, if you don’t want to miss this, then check back on December 22 (Wednesday) to witness all of those before your very eyes. I’m sure that you’ll be amazed to see us showing some thrills to shine and I’m happy if you’ll be ready to get along with us in the next update! So, I hope that you enjoyed reading this postscript message because you’re about to get excited on them because when the next time that we meet, it’s going to be more of a fantastic and diving hour to show with your smile! Until then, I’ll see you in our next update and make yourself a big smile to gleam, everyone! Rina-chan Board: Smile!
