ヒプノシスマイク -Rhyme Anima- (Fatal Four Ver.)

In honor of Season 2 premiering soon here's this!

Bring the Beat!

[Wicked Requiem:]

Wicked Requiem!

[Yuriko:]

I'll only say this once to any enemies who appear 

Dare threaten my family, and the only thing left of you will be a bloody smear

[Kaoru:]

Think you can hide your secrets from me? 

Oh, please! Nothing can be hidden from my sight! 

[Kanra:]

With the face of an angel and the rage of a devil 

Try your luck, I’m just itching for a fight 

[Silent Tragedy:]

Silent Tragedy!

[Kanon:]

How amusing, scurrying around my lab like rats

You won't get very far, I can assure you of that 

[Reika:]

A girl can get used to this, you know? 

The feeling of having the world in the palm of your hands 

[Sakura:]

A blood-stained crown rests on my brow

Who are you to give me a command?

[Death Row Block:]

Death Row Block!

[Akihisa:]

Call it a desire for vengeance and strife 

But I still have more to do before heading to the afterlife 

[Touya:]

Think you can leave me all alone? 

Just for that, I’ll make sure to give your throat a slash 

[Rintaro:]

What a pretty picture-perfect life you live

Makes me want to burn it all to ash!

[Valor Guard:]

Valor Guard!

[Seiji:]

Tough as steel and stronger than any shield 

Even against the entire world, I will never yield! 

[Lyall:]

For those who commit the worst of crimes 

I’ll see you judged by Anubis the Jackal! 

[Ayumu:]

The life of a medic isn't for the faint of heart 

You’ll find that it's a constant uphill battle!

[Fatal Four:]

Hypnosis action ends corruption

Lyrics that kick away verses

Nautilus diving into your mind

Attacking by surprise, ignition!

Beyond this endless game

Even if the world ends

We'll continue to fight

At the Division Rap Battle!

[Wicked Requiem:]

Deadly song!

[Yuriko:]

I can see it in your eyes that you’re afraid 

Fear not I’ll sing your final serenade 

[Kaoru:]

Even if I pray to the Muses for guidance

It's to the goddess Athena whom I dedicate my win 

[Kanra:]

Inhumanly born from the deepest pits of hell 

The masses would call my existence a sin 

[Silent Tragedy:]

Fierce blade!

[Kanon:]

Begging for mercy from a maniac? 

Fool, my heart has long since turned pitch black

[Reika:]

How can you say I'm horrible for being evil? 

At least I do it with stone-cold style 

[Sakura:]

Locked and loaded with my finger on the trigger 

I'll gladly put a bullet in your head with a smile

[Death Row Block:]

Execution!

[Akihisa:]

Opposing us is the quickest way to die 

Perhaps you ought to say your final goodbyes 

[Touya:]

Just the sight of you gets me all hot and bothered 

Come on, let's go a few rounds

[Rintaro:]

Think you can run the fuck away?

I’m hot on your heels like a hellhound!

[Valor Guard:]

Duty bound!

[Seiji:]

A warning for all there is very little I fear 

Especially when dealing with threats to all I hold dear 

[Lyall:]

With eyes that see everything like an owl 

I’ll catch you even during the darkest nights 

[Ayumu:]

Even when everyone else has long given up 

I'll keep on going with all my might 

[Fatal Four:]

Hypnosis action ends corruption

Gimmicks that burn synapses

Nobody can stop this now

Ignition!

Now we invite you to catharsis

Rhyming all over the place

Carving into history

With this Division Rap Battle!

[Kaoru:]

Mind racing faster than you can comprehend 

Even now it's plotting your bitter end!

[Reika:]

Even decked out head to toe in jewels

I’ll destroy anyone who tries to overthrow my rule! 

[Touya:]

Seems like you’re someone no one will miss 

How about I seal your fate with a kiss? 

[Lyall:]

Hidden like the dark side of the moon 

Your doom approaches soon! 

[Kanra:]

I’m quick to anger and, with my strength enough said 

So careful, or else you’ll end up dead!

[Sakura:]

Don't even think about trying to be brave 

You'll only just dig your own grave! 

[Rintaro:]

A battle between divisions, call it a nuclear winter!

Leaving nothing but ash and cinder!

[Ayumu:]

I might be here to heal 

But that doesn't mean I'll kneel! 

[Yuriko:]

That's it I’m done playing nice 

It's time I leave you in agonizing pain! 

[Kanon:]

A verbal barrage rains upon the psyche 

Let's see you undo the damage to your brain!

[Akihisa:]

This is our reality now 

One where words have all the power! 

[Seiji:]

Opponents stand all around 

The Division Rap Battles are no place to cower! 

[Fatal Four:]

Hypnosis action ends corruption

Lyrics that kick away verses

The Nautilus dives, invading the brain

Ignition!

Even if what results from this endless game

Is the end of the world

We'll keep resisting

With this Division Rap Battle!

Divisions: Niigata & Edogawa

“I’m killing Kanra. This is the second time she’s done this shit. I will get her back for this mark my word. Sorry about about all this Lyall. I can't believe she entered us together. You probably have more important stuff than being forced to compete in another pageant.”

“It’s no problem Kaoru. I don't mind competing in another pageant again at least I get a chance to hang out with you. I gotta say you pull off goth really nicely. I just can't believe you actually dyed your hair for this Kaoru.” 

“Well if I'm going to be goth. I'm going to go all in.”

Meanwhile, while Ivelisse was getting her gift, Hoàng Diêu was about to get a gift of her own. Said lady of the hour was currently at her residence working on some of her jewelry. Suddenly she heard a knock at the door. Curious as to who that could be at this hour, the jewelry designer walked over and opened the door, and much like her teammate only saw a package addressed to her. Picking it up the purple haired woman brought it inside and opened it. 

Inside was a wooden box filled with 12 lipsticks of various shades. Diêu picking one up, she quickly swatched it on her hand and was pleasantly surprised at how high quality they were. They were pigmented and felt creamy on her skin. Seeing a note attached to the box Diêu picked it up and began to read. 

Dear Miss Lotus,

Merry Christmas! I am your secret santa this year! So I made some lipsticks just for you. Each one gives a little surprise to whoever you kiss. As for what those surprises are, I'll let you figure that out, but I will say that one will knock someone out cold. So have fun! 

– Kaoru S.

Looking at the different shades of lipstick, Dieu had to admire the eye of the young genius woman. Looking at them with a keen eye, however, Dieu could tell that some of the lipsticks were not all they appeared to be. While Dieu had to admire the ingenuity of the young woman who just happened to Yuriko's daughter, Dieu's experience made her than a match for the young hacker. Still, Dieu had to give her points for originality. Not many people would think to fool her with lipstick shades. Especially not on Christmas of all days!

...Still, it seemed a shame to just discard these beautiful shades of make-up. Though she wouldn't use all of them, there was still a use for them. And if there wasn't Dieu would find one. Packing the lipstick away, Dieu made a note to thank young Kaoru the next time she appeared in her jewelry shop. To do so would do a disservice to her mother, despite their problems with one another. Speaking of which, Dieu had to wonder if Kaoru was as easy to fool as her mother...

Kai's Thoughts on Edogawa Division

Yuriko Kuromiya

"I, unfortunately, don't know much about Yuriko. My wife, however, does, as the two are both on the PTA. My first time meeting Yuriko was when my wife introduced me to her after one of the meetings. I don't know how they and the other parents involved in this organization can stand those meetings. After five minutes, I'm always ready to fall asleep. Anyway, she seemed like a rather aloof, yet polite woman. That said, however, you could tell she was dangerous, if the glint in her eyes was anything to go by. Still, I wouldn't be averse to meeting and talk with her again."

Kaoru Shinozaki

"This young girl may be the only from this team that I'm familiar with. And that's cause Zakari introduced her to me when I needed a new DJ booth after the one I had was falling apart. ...Granted, I did have it with me for a very long time, but I've always hated discarding or throwing things away that can still be used. My wife and kid kept pestering me to buy a new one, but... I don't know, I just couldn't. When you have something for so long, it's hard to get rid of it. Maybe it's just me."

"Anyway, seeing as how I wasn't going to get rid of it, Zakari, apparently, went behind my back and asked this young girl if she could repair it for me. I'll admit, I was very peeved that he would do something like this, but... when I saw what Kaoru had done, well... all my complaints got stuck in my mouth. She improved upon it... tremendously."

"To thank her, Zakari recommended I get her something 'coffee-related', since she's a big fan of coffee. So, I decided to pull some strings and let the coffee shops here in Minato know to let her buy whatever she wants from them free of charge. Don't ask how I can do that. Let's just say, being a DJ has its perks."

Kanra Akemi

"She may be the only one whom I'm not familiar with on this team, though stories about this young girl's abnormal strength are commonplace. I've warned Zakari not to do anything to piss her off. Because if he does, no matter how lucky he believes himself to be, I won't be responsible when he ends up in the hospital because he inadvertently said or did the wrong thing to her."

Wicked Requiem

"I quite like this team's name. 'Wicked Requiem.' It sounds evil and dark, yet I wonder what people would think once they play it and then realize the song wasn't what they expected it to be. ...That's actually giving me an idea for a song I've had in the works. A song with an organ in the mix. I'll have to think about it later."

"Besides that, this team may be the only other 'familial' team in the D.R.B. to date. A mother and her two daughters versus a father alongside his wife and child. ...I hope and pray Chuohku doesn't figure that out and leap on it the first chance they get. If so, I'm not looking forward to the outcome."

It had been a long day of getting presents for one Sayaka Miyuki. Never in her life did Sayaka think she would ever become so loved. Suddenly brought out of her thoughts by a knock at the door Sayaka assumed that this was another person bringing her a gift. Opening the door Sayaka saw someone she didn't know. Standing in front of her door was a young woman in a white dress and matching heels with blue hair tied into twin tails. A bright smile was on her face along with a few gifts in her hands.  

“Happy Birthday Miss Rhopalocera! Ah right! I’m Ageha Shinozaki,” The woman now identified as Ageha smiled. “I was asked by the bats over in Edogawa to deliver this to you. They're quite sorry that they couldn't personally come but a…issue came up for them.” 

Handing over the gifts to Sayaka, Ageha gave an elegant curtsy. “Sorry, I can't stay for long but I have to take my leave now. So then from one butterfly to another, I wish you a great rest of your birthday, and enjoy your gifts! See you again soon!”  Giving one last curtsy Ageha took off, leaving Sayaka standing in her doorway.

Sayaka blinked. Shinozaki? So that young woman was related to Kaoru in some way? Well, it was nice of her to deliver the gifts from the ladies of Wicked Requiem. Bringing them inside Sayaka placed them on the counter and began to open the biggest one first. 

Inside the box was a pink multi-tiered cake with white and pink flowers decorated all over the cake. There were also several golden butterflies spread all over the cake making it look like a swarm surrounding the cake. Instantly Sayaka was hit with the sweet scent of vanilla and raspberry. Looking at it, she noticed a letter that was attached to the inside of the box. Grabbing it Sayaka began to read. 

“Happy birthday Auntie! I hope you having fun today! Sorry, I can't be there to deliver your cake in person but something came up. Don't worry we're dealing with it right now! Anyway, Happy Birthday! Enjoy your cake!

From, 

Kanra Akemi”

Smiling at the kindness of the pink-haired girl. Kanra had always been so sweet to her and Sayaka had always adored the girl. Picking up the next gift, Sayaka quickly opened it to see what was inside.

Inside the box was a set of earrings. They were absolutely stunning as each one took half of a butterfly’s wings. White and pink diamonds covered the earrings and a few diamonds even dangled as well. Once again seeing a letter attached to the box Sayaka began to read.

“Happy Birthday Sayaka-san. I hope you’re enjoying your birthday so far. I saw these while shopping one day and instantly you came to mind. I’m sure they’ll look absolutely stunning on you.  Again, Happy Birthday and I look forward to seeing you soon.  

Signed,

Yuriko Kuromiya”

Sayaka admired the gift her counterpart had sent her. Truly despite her cold nature, Yuriko had always been kind to her. Sayaka made a mental note to thank the white-haired woman the next time she saw her.  

Finally, Sayaka picked up the third and last package. It was bigger than Yuriko’s gift but smaller than Kanra’s and from the process of elimination Sayaka assumed it was from Kaoru. Sayaka would admit she was curious as to what the eccentric genius would give her. Curiosity getting the better of her, she quickly began to open it. 

Inside the box was what Sayaka assumed was a doll on a stand. It was no taller than 10 inches from Syaka’s estimates but it was beautiful though with its long hair and purplish pink dress that reached to the doll’s heeled feet. A serene look was on its porcelain face and with her eyes closed it looked like it was in a deep sleep. However, the most stunning feature was the gorgeous iridescent butterfly wings on its back. 

Sayaka marveled at the doll and tried to see if any note was attached to it but to her disappointment there was none. Suddenly Sayaka heard what she thought was yawning. Hearing it again Sayaka looked down to see that the doll was stretching as if it had awoken from slumber. The doll noticing Sayaka’s gaze on her gave a huge smile. Sayaka’s eyes widened as the doll’s wings began to move and to her surprise, the doll began to fly in front of her face. 

“Hello!” The doll spoke, her voice sounding like the chimes of a bell. “I’m Titania! Kaoru personally made me to be a companion for you and little Yoshiko! Anything you need I am here to help!” Titania giggled as she began to flutter around the room. “So then let's get along Miss Sayaka!”

“What the-?!”

“Holy shit…”

Sayaka stared at the fairy fluttering around the room with wide eyes, absolutely shocked and not really knowing how to process something like this. She didn’t even notice Lola and Kureha coming into the room, she looked at them and then back at the fairy and repeated that for 2-3 times before smiling sheepishly. “Um, surprise?” She chuckled weakly and both the Model and the Artist just stared at her. Kureha shook her head, completely done. “Y’know what? I’m not even going to ask.”

“Lemme guess, this is from our friends from Edogawa?” Lola sent a knowing look and Sayaka nodded in response, showing off the butterfly earrings from Yuriko and butterfly styled cake from Kanra. “Titania is a gift from Kaoru.” She explained and the fairy A.I. companion nodded in response. “That’s right, I’ll be here to help with whatever you need!” She beamed brightly causing Sayaka to smile and Lola to coo in adoration while Kureha just stared, sorta mentally blanking out for a second before letting out a “Huh…”.

Light, nearly silent footsteps were heard before a sleepy Yoshiko walked inside the room wearing her pajamas. The four year old sleepily rubbed her eyes, not noticing her surroundings. “Mommy, I can’t sleep…” She whined, raising her arms and wanting to be held causing all 3 women to fawn over her. Sayaka cooed and picked her up, kissing the top of her head as Yoshiko laid her head against her mother’s shoulder, she was about to close her eyes again until she caught sight of Titania and immediately perked up, wide awake. She gave an obnoxiously loud gasp and pointed at the doll like A.I. “FAIRY!!” She squealed loudly, right in Sayaka’s ear making the woman flinched at the volume but smiled nonetheless. “Mhm! This is Titania!”

Titania giggled and floated up closer to Yoshiko who looked at her with awe and wonder. The fairy gave a twirl and a little bow, “Hiya Yoshiko! I’m Titania! Your very own personal companion! Let’s get along okay?”

Yoshiko started to bounce in Sayaka’s arm, making it difficult for her to hold her properly. “Mommy! Mommy! Can I play with Titania?! Please! Pleeeeease!” She begged and Sayaka bit her lip in contemplation. “I don’t know, baby, it’s really late…”

“Oh c’mon Sayaka!” Lola spoke up, smiling. “It’s not everyday you get to see a sorta real life fairy, Yoshiko is literally living every little girl’s dream!”

“Plus it’s the weekend and I don’t think we have anything planned for tomorrow.” Kureha agreed, watching Yoshiko interacting with Titania with soft fondness. Sayaka was quiet for a moment before sighing and letting Yoshiko back down, “Okay Yoshi, how about you show Titania your room? And all the plushies you have hm?” Sayaka smiled and Yoshiko jumped up and down in excitement. “Okay! C’mon Titania! Let’s go!” With that both the child and the fairy sped out of the room, their infectious excitement causing the three members of Femme Fatale laugh.

Thank you for the gift!

Kotan's Thoughts on Edogawa Division

Yuriko Kuromiya

"She seems very threatening, though I think that is only if you threaten her or her children. She resembles a mother bear defending her cubs. ...That's probably not the best description, but I think it fits. If we meet, I'll do my best to appear amicable. The last thing I want is to antagonize a woman like her."

Kaoru Shinozaki

"I... think I remember her. She came a week or so after a young man wearing a pink and brown suit came through her. She was apparently searching for him, but he had vanished about a day or so before. We pointed her in the direction we think he went in. But first, we advised that she get some rest since she looked so exhausted. My younger sisters really liked talking with her. I think they were both sad to see her go, but she promised to visit us again. Neither of them can wait."

Kanra Akemi

"I... don't think I've ever encountered her before. She seems... fairly young, however. Is someone like her really participating in this rap tournament?"

Wicked Requiem

"'Wicked... Requiem?' A... truly terrifying team name, I'll admit. I wonder if the 'requiem' refers more to the team members, themselves, than their music. ...I suppose we'll find out once we meet in the D.R.B. I only hope that nothing said or done will be taken seriously."

[minato-division03]

The doorbell to the Suzubayashi household is heard, plus a knock on their front door. Reiaki goes to answer it. Opening it, she finds no one is there. Looking down she spots something on the doorstep.

Two boxes were on the floor, each with “To Reiaki Suzubayashi” on them. Seeing they were for her, the dual-haired woman picked them up and carried both boxes into the kitchen. Deciding to open the bigger box first, her eyes grew wide at what was inside

Inside the box was a white cake with an anatomically correct heart standing on top. “Blood” was pooling around the heart and dripping down the cake. Taped to the inside of the box lay a simple letter. Opening the letter Reiaki found the messy writing of Edogawa's 3rd member and began reading it.

"Dear Reiaki-san,

Happy Birthday! Hope you don't mind that I made you a cake. I know you're a big fan of horror stuff so I hope you appreciate the “blood”. (It's cherry-flavored) Hopefully, you and your teammates will enjoy it. Have a nice rest of your birthday Reiaki-san! 

From

Kanra Akemi" 

Giving a small smile at the cake, Kanra had made her. Reiaki turned to the other box. She began opening the gift curious as to what was inside. Reiaki couldn't help but gasp at what was inside. 

Inside the case was a gorgeous Ouija board made out of birch wood. The board was a creamy white with skulls and wings carved into the wood. The planchette was equally as gorgeous with its winged skeletons and pentagram on it. Lifting it up Reiaki couldn't help but admire the details of the carvings. Noticing that a card was underneath the gift Reiaki picked it up and began to read.

"Dear Reiaki, 

Happy Birthday, Kitty Cat! I hope you like the gift I got you. Specially made for the first lady of horror herself. Just don't end up the main character of a horror movie when you use it. Anyway, have a great rest of your birthday from Edogawa’s very own mad genius. 

From 

Kaoru Shinozaki" 

Reiaki blinked. She took the cake and present and set them on her coffee table, next to the mountain of other presents she had received that day.

She didn’t want to compare, but the cake she’d just received may have been the most interesting so far. The human heart, the edible blood, it was a color and consistency that looked realistic. It looked almost terrifying to eat— and she loved that.

“Kanra Akemi…” Reiaki said to no one in particular. Kanra Akemi… Isn’t she that one kid? Damn, kids these days just get more and more talented…

Now the other gift… far more concerning than the previous. She almost wanted to trace over the intricate details with her hands, but she quickly stopped herself.

“I may be the queen of horror… but I don’t think even I’d be brave enough to use it… oh well! I can keep it as room decor next to my other board!”

“This one’s real pretty! That Kaoru…” Reiaki paused and picked up card that came with the board. “Kaoru Shinozaki! She made this? All this effort into one gift for me?!”

She did a once-over at the gifts that she had received and smiled. “All this effort for a stranger… thanks, you guys.”

She quickly grabbed her phone and took a picture of the stack of presents and sent them to a certain teammate of hers.

‘Hey, Miku-chan! Look at all the stuff I got for my birthday 😜 Come here and unbox these things with me!’

She chuckled. “Ha! Not like I can text Queen Card… her ‘royal majesty’ still won’t give me her phone number!”

She shoved her phone in her pocket and hurried down the hall and she skidded to a stop before she could barge right into the farthest bedroom. She slowly raised her hand and knocked on the door gently. “Hey! I didn’t see anyone at the door, but some people from the Edogawa division sent some presents! Come outside, I wanna show ya!”

[suginami-division]

A knock is heard on the door of the Umemoto residence. Opening the door reveals Kaoru Shinozaki and Kanra Akemi, the latter holding quite a few boxes in her arms. 

“Happy Birthday Ryuko!” Kaoru greeted giving the animator a two-finger salute. 

"Ryuko-san! Happy Birthday!" Kanra loudly cheered, lifting her arms and showing Ryuko the multiple boxes they had brought with them.

Walking inside Kanra gently placed the boxes on the kitchen counter. Turing around Kanra walked over to Ryuko and gave him a giant hug lifting him off the ground a few inches. Ryuko couldn't help but wheeze as he felt his spine cracking in several places. 

“Kanra! Put him down! He can't afford the medical bills if you break his spine.” Kaoru scolded. 

“Oops! Sorry!” Kanra apologized and put the animator down. 

“Alright Kanra why don't you get set up what you brought and I’ll give Ryuko his gifts.” Kaoru reminded the pink haired girl.

“Kay,” Kanra replied, picking up a few of the boxes leaving only the gifts behind, and walking into Ryuko’s kitchen. 

“Alright, Ryuko Kanra’s got something planned for ya but first gifts!” Kaoru cackled picking up the biggest of the gifts and placing the box in Ryuko’s hands.

Opening the gift reveals a brand-new coffee machine. One that looked particularly fancy to Ryuko considering the touch screen it had on it. 

“Hope you can put it to good use. Your current one looks like it's about to die.” Kaoru eyed the current machine in Ryuko’s kitchen. Looking at it like it had offended her. Picking up the next Kaoru passed it to Ryuko.

Opening the gift reveals a brand new drawing tablet and matching stylus. 

“Ta-da! Built by yours truly and is infinitely times better than anything out on the market right now. I included a few features such as a 3D hologram mode which allows you to view your art in a 3D hologram. Heck, I even made it so that you can draw on the hologram.” Kaoru finished with a huge grin on her face as she explained her work.

“I have one more gift for you. It's not really physical tho.” Kaoru told Ryuko, pulling out her phone and typing on it for a second. 

Hearing his phone ping Ryuko pulled it out of his pocket and his eyes nearly bulged out of his skull when he saw a notification that said someone had just deposited 10,000$ dollars directly into his bank account. Ryuko quicked turned his gaze back to Kaoru and saw that she had an amused look on her face. 

“Just a little something from me Ryuko. Use it for a vacation it looks like you really need one. I hear Disneyland Tokyo is pretty good this time of year.” Kaoru winked. “Also, Ryuko I’m sure you have some experience with this considering your last…job but don't ask where the money came from… plausible deniability ya know?” Kaoru smiled giving Ryuko’s shoulder a quick pat.

“I'm done!” Kanra shouted from the kitchen.

“Oh good Kanra made you something. She thinks you eat too many frozen meals to be healthy.”  Kaoru responded pushing Ryuko toward his kitchen.

Walking into his tiny kitchen Ryuko was surprised to see both his counters and table covered in all sorts of homemade traditional foods. Ryuko’s stomach growled as he saw all the dishes in front of him. It all smelled good to him. 

What had caught his eye though was the cake in the middle of the table. It was white and with eastern golden dragons wrapped around the sides. 

“Kanra how much food did you make?” Kaoru wondered seeing that Kanra had basically taken over the tiny kitchen with how many premade dishes she had brought with her.

“Just the normal amount of food I usually make plus extra for leftovers for Ryuko-san. Why? Did I go overboard?”  Kanra questioned taking out another dish from the boxes she had brought.

“Kanra this enough to feed a small army.” Kaoru sighed, turning her head to look at Ryuko. “Oi! Ryuko call the rest of your team. Your gonna need all the help you can to eat all of this food. Even then I think there's gonna be food leftover.”

“H-Huh? Oh, it’s you guys thank you-Ah, you’re coming in?”

Ryuko seemed taken aback by the sudden surprise. As the two walked into his small apartment, the man could only shrug and close the door behind them and follow the two inside. His path was quickly interrupted by Kanra turning around from the stack of boxes she had brought in to give him a hug. Well, her way of hugging.

The poor man was unable to utter a word as he felt several things in his body get crushed (something might have snapped too). Thankfully, Kaoru was there to mediate not without punching him down verbally by insulting his income.

“F-Fuck both of you…” Ryuko rasps out as soon as he falls to his knees in the middle of his hallway. It wasn’t without him recovering quickly, coughing out his lungs from the deprivation of air he had experienced. “Those other gifts better not be some sort of weapon to torture me.”

Sitting down with Kaoru, Ryuko figured he might as well entertain these two intruders in his home. They were after all, meaning well by giving him a lot of birthday gifts… And with how Ryuko was doing, he wasn’t one to turn down free stuff, especially on his birthday. Opening the first one, he was surprised to see a new coffee machine. Sleek, modern and a touch screen? This was a lifesaver for him, with his old one beginning to break down. Kaoru of course had no hesitation to point that out, with Ryuko could only respond with a glare at the hacker.

With the next gift, Ryuko was surprised to receive such a futuristic tablet and pen. Being used to using an ordinary drawing tablet or even screens like at his work, a hologram feature in a tablet was really something else. “Fuck, Shuu was right when saying you go all out with these tech gifts. But, you gotta show me how the hologram shit works Kaoru. I’m not that familiar with this type of tech.”

“Wait, that’s not all?” Ryuko responded when Kaoru decided to add in one more detail. As the ping rang on his cracked phone rang out, his jaw just dropped at what appeared across his screen. Completely speechless, all Ryuko could do was nod at Kaoru’s request to not ask where the money came from.

At this point of their visit, Ryuko could hardly make any snappy remarks at Kaoru’s comments about his living style. Pushing the now dumbstruck animator into the kitchen, he was only able to continue to stare at the array of food Kanra had managed to set out for him. All their banter faded into the background as his brain tried to catch up with what was happening. He was only snapped out of his revere when Kaoru shouted out at him to call his team, which he dumbly nodded in acknowledgement, before walking out of the kitchen in a daze.

Ring… Ring… Click!

“Ryu-chan! Hey, hey! What’s up?” Shuu’s cheerful voice responded once Ryuko had managed to dial his number.

“Shuu…”

“Huh? Ryuko, what’s wrong?” Shuu’s tone quickly grew concerned when Ryuko answered in such an odd way. “Did something happen?”

“N-No nothing bad. Just…” Ryuko started to process everything and rubbed his eyes, feeling odd. “The Edogawa team girls, minus the scary leader came over and they made food.”

“Oh! Kao-chan and Kan-chan? Aww! That sounds nice!”

“Yeah, there’s too much so could you call Maki and get over here? We’re going to need help.”

“Oki-doki!” The detective chirps. “But hey, are you okay? You sound a bit… Sniffly?”

“Shit, sorry.” Ryuko coughs, “You know how Kanra is. I think something went out of place… I’ll probably need Maki’s help to fix whatever it is.”

“...Really?” an unconvinced voice responds.

“Really. Now quit fucking stalling and get over here. I'm fucking starving and I don't wanna wait forever for both of your asses.”

“Hehe, okay! I’ll be there in 10!” And with a click, Shuu had hung up, no doubt doing just as Ryuko had requested.

Now left with a more clear head, Ryuko took a deep breath. This was a lot for him, for these team members to do so much for him, despite being rivals. It was going to take awhile for him to process the thoughts and feelings he was experiencing but for now…

“Fuck it, I’ll enjoy myself a bit!”

Chibi Wicked Requiem (New Year's Ver.)

– Yuriko

– Kaoru

– Kanra

“Wow Kaoru it looks like you finally got enough sleep for once in your life!”

“Being sleep deprived in enemy territory like this? No thanks.”

“So that explains why you spent nearly all day asleep.”

“Come on, Yuriko, even you have to admit Chuohku forcing all the divisions to come to this event is a little sus.”

“Why do you think I have several weapons hidden in my kimono? If something happens I’m prepared.”

“Now you’re speaking my language, Yuriko. I got several inventions hidden, too.”

“Waahh, am I the only one without any sort of weapon here?”

“Kanra you don't even need a weapon.”

“Yeah, you are the weapon, Kanra.”

“Hahaha! Yeah, the talent round was one of my favorites when I competed in the men's pageant as well. Gotta say, though, I didn't expect you to know how to act.”

Contestants/Couples (2/2)

Of course, we couldn’t forget about the main event! We’ve searched high and low throughout Japan to find the very best, the crème de la crème of each and every Division had to offer and we certainly weren’t disappointed with the line up we have and something tells us you aren’t going to be either once we reveal who our couples for this competition are. The couples and contestants for the 2024 Mr. and Mrs. HypMic Couples' Pageant are...

1. "Up next, we have, perhaps, the youngest couple in this competition. Both women have only been dating for approximately a year now, but that doesn't take away the love and care they have for each other! They've been friends for far longer than that, and both know each other inside and out! We'll see if that knowledge, and their young age and cuteness takes them far in this couples' pageant! Please welcome, the popular YouTuber with hundreds and thousands of fans, Criss "Paradox" Hiromi of Akihabara, and her partner, the first-ever winner of the Ms. HypMic Pageant, 2023's most beautiful and talented woman in all of Japan, Kanade "Spooky" Alarie of Kyoto!"

Phantom Powwow

2. "Next up, we have perhaps the most hot-blooded duo in all of this competition. ...Well, I say 'hot-blooded', but really, these contestants are actually fairly level-headed... so long as you don't say or do anything to piss them off! If you do, well... you can only blame yourself if you wind up with third-degree burns! The competition will really heat up with these two, so let's give them a heated welcome, shall we? First, we have one of the most decorated chefs in all of Japan, Luis "El Dorado" Kōkyū of Aoyama! And his partner, well-known librarian and model, Aoba "Guinevere" Yamamura of Kumamoto!"

Inferno Pair

3. "It's best to think of the song, "Opposites Attract" for this next couple, because these two lovebirds are on opposite sides of the law! One is a dedicated officer of truth and justice, while the other is not afraid to bend the rules behind her computer screen! Despite that, they've managed to both catch each other's eye and have been in a "not-so secret" relationship with one another ever since! They've got knowledge in various departments, but will that knowledge help them both in this competition? We'll find out! Please welcome, the man who was once called "Japan's 'It' Boy", Lyall "Corvus" Shina of Niigata, and the infamous hacker and inventor, Kaoru "Arachne" Shinozaki of Edogawa!"

Blue Blaze

4. "This next... well, no offense, but can they really be called a "couple"? Because, and I say this as nicely as I can, but their relationship seems more in-tune with a master and a servant. ...And seeing as how one of the contestants has a leash around his neck, well... I don't think I'm too far off the mark. ...But in any case, perhaps they may surprise us! And if not... well, I'm certain we'll get a good laugh out of them anyway! So, without further ado, please welcome the unparalleled leader of the Kito-gumi, Kito "Renegade" Sakura of Shizuoka, and her... partner, the popular and well-known glassmaker, Yano "Y-STARR" Ietsuna of Toyama!"

Master and Servant

5. "We've now reached the last couple in the pageant. But don't make the mistake of thinking they are the least! Because in case you don't know, one of the contestants is a fighter! And if anyone makes the mistake of underestimating her, or worse, her partner, she won't hesitate to lay them out on the floor! And Heaven only knows, if she'll stop there! These two young women have been married for only a year, and they couldn't be happier with each other! We'll see if their life as a couple has prepared them for this contest! So, without further ado, let's welcome the last contestants in this competition! First off, we have the MMA Champion of the World, Eldrid "Valkyrie" Iwasaki of Taitō, and her wife, whom you've probably heard if you kept a close ear out on TV shows or video games, Kirumi "Echo" Mayeda of Takatsuki!"

Valkyrie’s Resonance

Let's wish these lovely contestants the best of luck!

Alexis's Thoughts on Edogawa Division

Yuriko Kuromiya

"Yuriko Kuromiya, otherwise known as, 'Black Dahlia'. Her name has come up on the CIA's reports more than once in the past. Would you believe me if I told you that she was the primary suspect into the death of the president years ago? But I knew they were mistaken. The person who killed the president was the same one who killed my father and brother. And I know for a fact the assailant was a male. ...Besides, I might be mistaken, but I get a feeling this woman only kills who she is supposed to, or those who get in her way."

"...Still, that won't stop me from getting some answers out of her if we happen to meet. And as luck would have it, she seems to be a frequent visitor to Ivelisse's yoga classes, so that might be a good place to start."

Kaoru Shinozaki

"Kaoru Shinozaki, or as she is commonly called on the Internet, 'Delphi'. ...Surprised that I know? Don't be. I work for the CIA, and I'd like to think our information network is the best in the entire world. I must admit though, I was very much surprised when I found out that a mere 13-year-old was responsible for hacking into the Pentagon. A girl barely in her teens managed to breach the world's most sophisticated Internet defense system? Sounds like something out of a fanfiction novel. ...But the results don't lie. She was the sole one responsible for giving the FBI no end of trouble. If you could have seen the backlash from her work. Many of us were afraid that this might be another terrorist attack event. The U.S. was on high alert for half a year."

"I'm glad to see that she has, at least, kept her hacker and terrorist activities here in her own country. The last thing we need is something like that happening again. A shame she wasn't born in America. We could definitely find use for someone like her in the CIA."

Kanra Akemi

"Hmm... she's the only one that we, or the CIA, know much about. It's as if she appeared from out of nowhere. From what little we know of her, it seems as if Kuromiya-san has adopted her. If not for her unnatural and supernatural strength, I'd have thought of her as just as an ordinary girl. ...But then again, that would mean that anyone involved in this contest is just 'ordinary'. And that couldn't be any further from the truth."

Wicked Requiem

"...I wonder, if it wasn't necessary for teams of three to enter this competition, would Black Dahlia have included her daughters into this? I'd like to say 'no', but then again, I can't claim to know what someone like her is thinking. Regardless, this is one of the many teams that we cannot underestimate. As stated, Black Dahlia, by herself, is already an intimidating opponent. Combined with her oldest daughter's intellect, and her youngest daughter's strength, they are a force to be reckoned with. I can only hope that we are prepared when we face them."
