– That night.



Akira: Aー HAHAHA! Today's show was a huge success!
I pounded, toasted with my hero ability and ate mochi while wearing a kimono in a studio decorated in New Year style! Everyone was struck dumb by me. ♪

Oscar: You certainly gathered quite the attention... I was also a bit concerned about what you'd do next.

Will: Everyone listened happily to the twists and turns until the actual performance.

Akira: I ended up exposing some embarrasing stuff too, though, like how I forgot to check the plan.

Will: I saw the recordings, but, somehow, compared to what has happened in the past there was a lot of content. Well, you managed to do something flashy as you originally wished, it was very like you if I say so myself.

Oscar: You also faced hardships while helping making mochi, Will.

Will: Haha. Practicing making mochi every day payed off.

Brad: I'm backー

Akira: BRAD! Have you seen the show today!?

Brad: This is quite sudden...

Will: Come now, Akira. Brad-san just came home... Welcome back, Brad-san.

Oscar: Thank you for your hard work, Brad-sama.

Brad: Yeah.

Akira: Grrrrr... Welcome back, Brad!
So, how's it!? Did you watch it!?

Brad: ... Yes, I did watch it.
It seems the content this time was well received by both the public relations department and the broadcasting station.

Akira: Eh?




Brad: Not only did the theme was New Year, but it also included heroism and originality, a very good content.
Personally, I was able to learn about Japanese culture, it was satisfying.

Akira: ......!
Hehe, it's only natural that it was well received and the content was good!

Will: Because you're a genius?

Akira: Nah, the fact that I'm a genius is a given, but
this time I had you and Gast! What I'm sayin' is, it's only natural it was the best plan because the two of you helped me a lot.

Will: Akira...

Oscar: It seems you had a lot of troubles and misfortunes, but you got to this point with Will and Gast's help, huh.
I was fairly impressed​ when you mentioned the hardship the three of you overcame when you talked about making mochi.

Akira: Yeah, making mochi is a symbol of collaboration and cooperation! Teamwork is important for making mochi and to us heroes. ♪

Brad: Good, that's a good attitude.

Akira: Of course. It's something I'm not gonna forget to surpass you, Bradー.

By the way, Will. Are the things in you hands the New Year's decorations we used?

Will: Yeah. Since we made them, I was thinking I might as well decorate our room and enjoy the New Year's mood for a while.
I could also do Kakizome and write my New Year's resolution while at it. Brad-san, could I borrow your Calligraphy tools?

Brad: Sure, use them whenever you want.

Will: Thank you very much!

Akira: My New Year's resolution was maximum voltage, but what are you gonna write, Will?

Will: I wonder... I'm getting used to being a hero this year, so I guess mine will be "taking myself a little less seriously".

Akira: Nnh? That's kinda not like you.

Will: You think so? Recently I started thinking that relaxing is also something important.

Akira: Heh?
Ah, right. If you're doing Kakizome, might as well call Gast, no?

Will:
Huh?!

Akira: I also wanna thank him for having helped me a bunch this time.

Will: ......... W- Well, I guess it's fine?

Akira: Yass!!!
Hehe, looks like the new year is off to a good start. This year, too, the voltage's up to the maximum!
