cozmez - December 24, 2023

Kanata: Omurice, hamburger and fries... is that gonna be enough? This is hard.
Nayuta: Eh, let's just buy more, then. It's our birthday, after all. Wanna get takeout from somewhere around here?
Kanata: ... hey, Nayuta. Look at that.
Nayuta: Sup? ... "chicken[1] and cake"...? Sounds good. What size of cake we gonna get?
Kanata: Do you have to ask? The biggest one they've got.
Nayuta: [laughs] Awesome. But are you gonna be able to carry it?

[1] It's a big cultural thing in Japan to eat fried chicken on Christmas, and since their birthday is December 24th, I feel this is important context.

Zen - January 1, 2024

Satsuki: Zen-nii! Do the thing again this year! It's your birthday, after all, so you've GOTTA do the thing!
Zen: Leave it to me! That's right... this year, why don't you do it with me, too, Satsuki-kun!
Satsuki: Whoa-hoah! For real!? Well, if you say so, then I've got no choice but to do it too!
Zen: Well, then let's get to it! One, two, and...!
Zen and Satsuki: [extreme flexing noises]
Zen: [panting] Satsuki-kun... from biceps to traps, you were able to craft a fine mountain range of muscles!

Itsuki - January 15, 2024

Rokuta: Itsuki-nii! Happy birthday~! Here, for you! It's a present!
Itsuki: Hm? This is... a bookmark?
Rokuta: Uh-huh! I made it with Kei-chan! I was thinkin' you'd be happy to have something like that to use when you're reading a book!
Itsuki: ... I see. Thank you. I will treasure it. I'll have to thank Kei later as well.

Kei - January 31, 2024

Kei: Welcome home, Itsuki. It certainly looks like you bought a lot of food today.
Itsuki: Yes, on account of it being your birthday, Kei. Having discussed the matter with Rokuta, I am planning to make a more extravagant dinner than usual.
Kei: Well, that being the case, I'll have to ensure I'm hungry by nightfall.
Itsuki: Please do so. I am planning to serve cake after the meal.
Kei: Thank you. I'll look forward to it.

Chungsung - February 7, 2024

Dongha: What's that look for?
Chungsung: Nothing at all.
Dongha: You're distracting me. Go back to your own room or wherever.
Chungsung: Understood. However, if I may be of use to you for anything else, feel free to call upon me again.
Dongha: ... Ah. I left a package on your desk. You'd better inspect it.
Chungsung: Bocchama...! Please allow me to humbly express my extreme delight.

Kantaro - February 14, 2024

Aoi: Shogo went to get it first thing in the morning. He thought you might want to try it.
Kantaro: Good work, Shogo!　Never cutting corners with the sweets reconnaissance!
Aoi: We've got another present for you, too. You should open it after we all have a chance to have some cake.

Ryu: Ahem! For Fuu-chan, who loves kitties: tuna, and bonito, and chicken, and then a bunch of other stuff, all blended up~!
Hokusai: You really got creative for my sake, didn't you? I wonder how it tastes. I look forward to trying it.

Ryu: I don't care~! There's nothing Ryu-kun looks forward to more than it just being Ryu-kun's birthday!

Hajun - April 8, 2024

Toma: H-Hajun-san! Happy birthday!
Hajun: Thank you very much, Toma-kun.
Toma: I bet that someone who's on your level probably rents out a super lux hotel for your birthday and have an all-night party or something like that, right, Hajun-san?
Hajun: By no means. I simply have a small celebration at home with my teammates.
Toma: Oh, VISTY do kinda the same thing! Having a party at home is fun, right?
Hajun: Indeed. It's not a bad way to celebrate, I think.

Aoi - April 19, 2024

Shogo: Happy birthday, Aoi!
Aoi: Thank you, Shogo! What's in this package?
Shogo: It's a secret. So go ahead and open it!
Aoi: ...! You didn't have to get me something like this--!
Shogo: You've been eyeing that motorcycle in magazines, right? We can't afford to buy the real thing, so it's just a plastic scale model kit, but...
Aoi: No, I'm so happy! Toma is really good at putting these together, right? I'll have to ask him to help me make it! Shogo, thank you so much!

Iori - May 2, 2024

Iori: Oh! Well ain't we in high spirits~? Full marks!
Reo: Tadaa! It's a firm custard pudding, thickened up with extra egg yolks! And of course we didn't forget the cherry on top!
Iori: Now that's the stuff! Nothin' beats havin' this kinda pudding in the comfort of my own home!
Reo: Hehe~! Zen-nii's the one who made it, though.
Iori: That so? I've only ever had somethin' like this at a cafe. Gettin' to eat it with my family makes it taste a hundred times better, and makes my mood ten thousand times better!
Reo: Happy birthday! It's the least we can do for you. Love 'ya, aniki!

Satsuki - May 15, 2024

Anne: Satsuki-kuuun! Can I ask you to stay behind a little bit today after closing up?

Ryoga: The hell're you trying to do.
Yuto: Ah, well...! Today is your birthday... isn't it, Tosa-kun?
Ryoga: ... I mean, yeah.
Yuto: That's good to hear. This isn't the brand you usually smoke, but it's the thought that counts with presents.
Ryoga: Mm. [taking a drag of a cigarette] ... seriously, the hell...

Anne - June 12, 2024

Chisei: Haruomi~ Today's my birthday, y'know-- don't tell me you forgot?
Haruomi: Ah... I guess that is today, now that I think about it.
Chisei: C'mon, you're not gonna forget your longtime partner's birthday that easily, are you?
Haruomi: I'm joking. I've prepared some celebratory drinks.
Chisei: Now that's more like it. While we're at it, I want your specialty ramen, too!
Haruomi: Got it. Hold on for a bit while I make it.

Shiki - August 8, 2024

Shiki: Hey, Nayuta-kun, which record do you think I should get, between these two? I'm having trouble choosing.
Nayuta: Lemme see 'em... hm...
Shiki: Na-Nayuta-kun!?
Nayuta: I'm gonna buy both. It's your birthday, isn't it, Shiki?
Shiki: That's true, but I could never trouble you to have to buy both...!
Nayuta: S'fine, just let me be the one to pay today.

Yuto - August 12, 2024

Ryoga: I'll tell Shion and Shibaken not to cause any trouble today.
Yuto: Thank you very much for that, Tosa-kun. But what's the occasion for today?
Ryoga: ... do you not remember what today is?
Yuto: Is there something special about it? I mean, I suppose it is my birthday, but even so...
Ryoga: Well, if you already understand, then I'm done here. Later.
Yuto: ... maybe that was Tosa-kun's way of wishing me a happy birthday...?

Shogo - August 20, 2024

Haruomi - September 9, 2024

Allen: [stammering] UH. UM. SHURA-SAN. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Allen: You probably already know this, but I've always admired Buraikan so much...! I can't believe I have the chance to wish you a happy birthday in person! I'm so honored!!
Haruomi: You're making it out to be a bigger deal than it is... well, it's not the worst thing in the world. Have something to eat, long as you're here.

Rokuta - October 10, 2024

Rokuta: Kei-chan! Something smells really good~!!

Rokuta: Yaaaay!! Is there karaage, too...?

Shion - November 11, 2024

Yuto: -- Kaida-kun, it seems that you've been receiving quite a few notifications on the provided computer recently, for some reason...?
Shion: Well, it is my birthday, after all. I'm sure that all the girls I've met on SNS want to send me their regards.
Yuto: --! How lovely! Um, but that said, you haven't agreed to meet up with all of those people one-on-one, have you?
Shion: ...... Oh, of couuurse not~.
Yuto: That's a relief! I don't want to have to tell you off on your birthday, Kaida-kun.

Kantaro: Toma~! Happy birthday!! Let's take a selfie so we can do an SNS post!
Toma: [laughs] Thanks, Kantaro! Just a sec, though; since it's a special occasion, why don't we do up your face a bit different than usual? Lemme take juuuust a peek at your face... and finish it off with a bit of lip tint... alright, you're ready to rock!
Kantaro: Uwah~! What the heck, this is soooo cute!
Toma: Whoa~! With this makeup, you're looking so good it's practically not fair, Kantaro~! Let's go all-out on getting this SHOWTIME on the road and make it great~!

Dongha - December 7, 2024

Dongha: What are you grinning about, Chungsung? If there's something you want to say, say it at once.
Chungsung: Today is dearest Bocchama's birthday; I have been refining how I wish to convey my words of constant gratitude and congratulations.
Dongha: Unless you were planning on informing me of some blunder, you wouldn't need that much time. Or is there some other transgression you need to report to me?
Chungsung: No, sir, I am terribly sorry for any confusion. I, your humble Baek Chungsung, have simply been contemplating for the other 364 days of the year as to how to best celebrate Bocchama. Until such time as you fall asleep, Bocchama, I plan to provide you with the most superb service. Please look forward to it.
