Seasonal Show Special: Spring Team Plays Among Us

As part of the promotion/special material for the Seasonal Show, on April 23 2025, a thirty-four-minute video of the members of Spring team (Anne, Shiki, Reo, Hokusai, Shogo, Kantaro, and Rokuta) playing Among Us.

Anne: [in English] Hey guys! How's it going? It's time for Spring Team's gameplay video~!
Reo: Hold up, isn't this BGM super ominous?
Shiki: I-it is...
Shogo: We are supposed to be Spring Team, right?
Kantaro: Shouldn't we be doing something bright and cute?
Hokusai: Are we looking at outer space right now?
Rokuta: Hey, is that an alien out there going round and round?
Anne: Now, now, everyone. Just hear me out. We'll be playing this game together with all of us gathered here now... but for the sake of anyone who may not know everyone, how about we start off with some introductions?
Shogo: Ah, yes...! All of our Stellas are the source of my energy! I'm SHOGO from VISTY! I look forward to working with all of you today!
Kantaro: My smile is worth a million Likes! ♡ Your local social media expert! I'm KANTARO from VISTY~! I'm a little nervous, but I'll do my best!
Reo: I'm REO-kun from Akan Yatsura~!
Hokusai: I'm Hokusai. I'm glad to have a chance to play with everyone.
Rokuta: I'm Rokuta from 1Nm8! Nice to meet'cha!
Shiki: Um... I'm Ando Shiki, here as a representative of The Cat's Whiskers. I'll do my best not to hold anyone else back...
Anne: And last but not least, I'm Anne Faulkner from BAE! Let's all have some fun today!


[Text on screen: RULES: A Werewolf-type game set in space, where players are divided into the roles of Imposter (Werewolf) and Crewmate (Villager)]
Anne: I'll explain the rules of the game we'll be playing today, okay? This is a death game set on a spaceship where the players are split into Imposters and Crewmates!
Shogo: A death game...!?
Kantaro: That's so scary!
[Text on screen: [Win Conditions]
Imposter (Werewolf): Eliminate crew members until only one is left alive
Crewmates (Villagers): Complete all tasks, OR eject the Imposter]

Anne: Put super simply, you can think of it kind of like the Imposter is "it" in a game of tag, and the Crewmates are the people running away from them. The Imposter wins if they reduce the number of living Crewmates down to be equal to the number of Imposters. Oh, and for this game, we're setting the number of Imposters to one.
Reo: So the Imposter has to eliminate 5 Crewmates to win?
Anne: Yep! And the Crewmates win if they complete all of their tasks on board the spaceship, or if they manage to deduce and expel the Imposter through group conversations! Simple, right?
Shiki: Um, when you say the Imposter needs to "Reduce the number of living Crewmates", how do they do that...?
Anne: When the Imposter is close to a Crewmate, they'll have a "Kill" button pop up for them! I think it's easiest to understand just by trying it out.
Shiki: U-understood...
Anne: From the Crewmates' perspective, the Imposter just looks like another Crewmate, so if you think someone is acting suspcious, you're going to want to get away from them as fast as you can!
Hokusai: You have to be careful.
Reo: Well, I'm pretty good at deduction, so maybe we'll find out who the Imposter is super quick, yeah~?
Kantaro: If Shogo is the imposter, we'll know immediately! [laughs]
Shogo: You don't know that! You never know, maybe I'll turn out to be really good at this!
Rokuta: I don't totally 100% get it, but it sounds fun! Hey, hey, let's hurry up and play!
Anne: Okay! Alright, everyone, see you on the spaceship~!


[Lobby screen]

Rokuta: Wow! We're on a spaceship~!
Hokusai: Everyone is so cute.
Shogo: Kantaro, did you grow a horn?
Kantaro: Ehehe, it's pretty good, huh?
Shiki: Um, what should I do...?
Anne: Alright, for now, let's have everyone gather up at the top of the room... and now, for everyone watching, let's show off the avatars we all chose! It'd be a great chance to explain why you chose the one you did!
Everyone Except Anne: Alright! [With Shiki sounding much more unsure than the others]
Anne: Okay, let's start with Reo!
Reo: 'Kay! This is my avatar! This time I'm going with the yellow one! My charm point are my cute little bear ears! Be sure to pay attention to me~! Alright, Shiki, you go next!
Shiki: Eh... m-me...? Um, I chose the blue one because of TCW... I chose the headpiece because it reminded me of a cactus. Um... I look forward to working with all of you... Um... then, next, how about Hokusai-kun?
Hokusai: The green one is me. Reo picked out the clothes and the hat for me. Next up, Shogo.
Shogo: Ah, okay! I'm the light blue one! I chose it because it's pretty close to the color of my stage outfit, so I'm sure I'll live to the end of the game! All of our Stellas, please cheer me on!
Rokuta: Me next, me next, me next! The white one is me, Rokuta~! Check me out! The fried egg looks sooo yummy! I'm not gonna lose~!
Kantaro: Everyone~! The cutie dreamcore unicorn is Kantaro, okay? ♡ Everyone, keep your eyes on my performance~!
Shogo: What's with the white coat?
Kantaro: 'Cuz Anne-san already took the pink one, so this way, it's easier to tell us apart, right?
Anne: Well then, I'm the pink one with the flamingo! It stands out, and isn't it super cute?
Reo: Cute~!
Kantaro: Cute~!
Rokuta: Cute~!
Hokusai: It suits you, Anne.
Anne: Thanks. ♡ Is that everyone? We didn't leave anyone out?
Rokuta, Reo, and Kantaro: All good~!
Hokusai: I'm good...
Shiki and Shogo: I'm alright.
Anne: Alrighty then! Well, then, the time for peace is over!
Reo: Eeh~?
Kantaro: Scary~!
Shogo: Is it already time...
Anne: And thus begins our life-or-death death game of Imposters and Crewmates! Everyone, haev you braced yourselves?
Shiki: U-um...
Reo: I'm sure we'll figure it out!
Rokuta: I wonder which I'm gonna be~!
Shogo: I hope I'm a crewmate...
Kantaro: Shogo, you're too obvious!
Hokusa: Ah, it looks like it's starting...
Shiki: Eh, already...?
Anne: Alright, everyone! [in English] Good luck!


[translator's note: I am not going to translate all of the on-screen game text. You know how Among Us works, and if you don't, don't worry about it.]

[Rokuta's screen]

[Note on screen: Microphone off - While doing tasks, nobody else can hear what anyone else is saying.]

Rokuta: Ah, I'm a crewmate!
Rokuta: ... hm? What exactly is a Crewmate supposed to do?
[Popup: Crewmate: Open your map in the top right, and complete the tasks assigned to them]
Rokuta: Ah, this must be the map of the spaceship.
Rokuta: Hm... I guess I'll start doing stuff that's close by!
Rokuta: This is... matching the colors that go together? This goes here, and this goes here, and that goes there, and this goes here! Yay, I did it! So, next is...
[bgm: Upbeat chiptune music]
Rokuta: Huh!? This must be a power outage.
Rokuta: If the power is out, then I oughta go throw the breaker! I know that 'cause I've done it at home before~
Rokuta: Turns out, if you run a hair dryer and the microwave and the kotatsu all at the same time, the power goes out!
Rokuta: Ah, there's the lights.
Rokuta: Alright, work, work... ... huh? What is this? What'm I supposed to do here? Hm? Hm...?
Rokuta: Ah, what do I do? I don't get this one at all.
Rokuta: Usually, when I don't understand something, what I do is I just go ask Itsuki to explain it to me, but he's not hAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!?
Rokuta [Ghost]: Shiki!? Now I'm a ghost...!


[Shiki's screen]

Shiki: ... eh?
[bgm: Tchaikovsky's "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy"]
Shiki: That was... Rokuta-kun... right?
Shiki: W-what do I do...!? I reduced Rokuta-kun to a pile of bones!
Shiki: I can't let anyone find out about what I did, right?
Shiki: I'm sorry, Rokuta-kun...


[Voting screen]

Anne: Ah...!
Hokusai: Rokuta...
Reo: Huh? Already!?
Kantaro: This is too scary~!
Shiki: ...
Shogo: Who could possibly have done that to Rokuta-san...?
Reo: We've got to figure out who the Imposter is, for Rokuta's sake!
[note on screen: The voices of deceased players cannot be heard by living players.]
Rokuta [Ghost]: Everyone, do your best...!
Anne: Alright, let's have a meeting and talk it out. Everyone, where was the last place you saw Rokuta?
Kantaro: I didn't see him a single time! But I saw everyone else a bunch of times. So I'm definitely innocent! Right?
Anne: Hmm... I don't think just running into other people is proof of much.
Kantaro: Eh!?
[bgm: Investigative music]
Reo: Well, I guess I did spend a lot of time near Kantaro.
Shogo: I can confirm, I saw Reo and Kantaro together multiple times.
Kantaro: Yeah, see!?
Anne: Hm...
Shiki: ...
Reo: Anyway, where was Rokuta's body? If we know the scene of the crime, then we should be able to narrow down the possible suspects, right?
Rokuta [Ghost]: Wow! Reo, you sound just like a real detective! Hey!
Shogo: That makes sense...
Rokuta [Ghost]: Ah, right, they can't hear me...
Anne: I don't know that. That's one of the things about this game; when you hit the Emergency Meeting button, any dead bodies disappear. So, only the Imposter themself would know where Rokuta was killed.
Kantaro: But hey, doesn't that mean there might be a reason you called an Emergency Meeting, Anne-san?
Anne: Eh? No, not at all! [laughs]
Kantaro: Hmm??
Reo: Mm... well, for my part, I think Hokusai has been acting pretty suspicious~.
Hokusai: Huh?
Rokuta [Ghost]: Why'zzat!?
Reo: I noticed Hokusai slinking around in the shadows for some reason.
Hokusai: I wasn't...
Anne: That does seem pretty suspicious! Hokusai-kun, why were you hanging around places where you didn't have any tasks to do?
Hokusai: I was just looking at the map...
Shogo: Hokusai-kun, could it be...!?
Hokusai: No. It wasn't me. It really wasn't me...


[Shiki's screen]

Shiki: Ah... my heart was pounding... I think I managed to avoid anyone suspecting me...?
Shiki: But that just meant that Hokusai-kun became the prime suspect instead... I'm so sorry...
[Popup on screen: Imposter: Pretend to do tasks without the crewmates growing suspicious, but actually sabotage the crew]
Shiki: But...
[bgm: Tense piano music]
Shiki: If I can manage to keep it up, then I might win the game...
Shiki: ... there are too many people around here...
Shiki: Is there anyone going off and doing tasks on their own...?
Shiki: What should I do... ah--!
Reo [Ghost]: HAAAAAAAAH!?
Shiki: Was that... Reo-kun, just now...?
Shiki: All I've been doing is mowing down the people who have been nothing but kind to me... I hope they don't hate me for this...
Shiki: ... but...
[bgm: Determined electronic music]
Shiki: If I don't do my best to play the role of Imposter, then the game will be over just like that... I have to give it my honest effort...!
Shiki: Alright...!


[Voting screen]

Kantaro: Ehh!!!
Hokusai: Reo...
Shogo: Reo-san...!
Anne: Shiki, where did you find him?
Shiki: U-um... In the lower left, near the engine room.
Shogo: So around here...
Kantaro: I didn't go anywhere near there~.
Shiki: Um... I was going towards the reactor coming from the electrical room. So I guess that's where Reo-kun was killed...
Reo [Ghost]: Yeah, 'cause YOU'RE THE ONE WHO KILLED ME THERE!?
Rokuta [Ghost]: Someone's lying~!
[bgm: Suspicious music]
Anne: I think I saw Hokusai near the reactor.
Hokusai: Me...?
Anne: I was heading left towards the reactor from above. On the way there, I passed Hokusai passing by coming from below.
Kantaro: That must be when he was coming from [BLEEP]ing him!! And besides that, Reo-san had suspected Hokusai-san, right? So that's why he was in the way, and so he...!
Hokusai: I didn't do that...
Shogo: For right now, just to make sure, maybe we should figure out where everyone else was going? Anne-san, you were close to where the body was found, weren't you?
Anne: Eh? Are you accusing me?
Shogo: I'm just checking to make sure!
Anne: But it's like I said before; I was going towards the reactor from above. The body was discovered in the lower engine room, right? I hadn't gotten that far yet.
Shogo: I see...
Kantaro: So what were you doing, Shogo? I don't remember seeing what you were doing at any point.
Shogo: Eh-- I was just trying to do my tasks like normal...?
Anne: Aha, what're you getting defensive for?
Shogo: I'm not getting defensive!!
Rokuta [Ghost]: Ahaha!
Hokusai: Mm... ah. We're almost out of time...
Shiki: W-what should we do...?
Anne: I guess I'm just gonna skip voting this time.
Shogo: There's not enough to be certain about anything.
Kantaro: But the killer is in our midsts right now, right!? That's so scaryyyy!
Reo [Ghost]: Well-done, Shiki.
Rokuta [Ghost]: Deduction is harder than you'd think, huh~?


[Kantaro's screen]

Kantaro: [sigh] Those group discussions really stress me out. But I'm a Crewmate! And I haven't done anything wrong!
Kantaro: Since I've made it this far, I totally wanna survive until the end~
Kantaro: But I wonder who the Imposter could be?
Kantaro: Right now, Hokusai-san seems pretty suspicious, but I'm kind of surprised by how much Shogo se--EEK!!
Kantaro: Ah, I'm still safe... Anne-san seems to be acting kinda weird...
Kantaro: Hmm... wha--! Ah, there's two people...
Kantaro: Is Shiki-san acting kind of weird, too? I don't wanna get [BLEEP]ed, but-- WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!!!
Kantaro [Ghost]: Ah, this sucks~...


[Shogo's screen]

[bgm: Carefree flute music]
Shogo: Ah, a power outage. When it comes to chores like this, you have to take a bit of initiative, huh?
Shogo: Alright... that oughta do it.
Shogo: ... ? Hold on just a second...
Shogo: Uwhoah?! You've gotta be kidding me, Kantaro!?


[Voting screen]

Anne: No way~!
Shiki: Kantaro-san...
Hokusai: That means there's only four of us left...
Shogo: What should we do...?
Kantaro [Ghost]: Hey! I'm counting on you, Shogo! Avenge my spirit!!
Anne: Hmm... I think we're really going to have to buckle down on figuring out who the culprit is.
Hokusai: But if we expel the wrong person...
Shogo: The odds will just get less and less in our favor.
Shiki: Um, Shogo-san, where did you find Kantaro-san...?
Shogo: He was really close to Electrical. There was a power outage while I was on the way over, but by the time I had fixed it, someone had [BLEEP]ed him.
Anne: Hm... This time Hokusai-kun and I passed each other a few times, but that's all.
Shogo: Ah, that's right. I bumped into Hokusai-kun a few times myself, but nothing happened.
Shiki: ...
Shogo: And besides that, for my part, I don't think it's Anne-san, either. All of your comments seem very Crew-oriented, and I've been with you when there were other incidents, so then that just leaves...
Kantaro [Ghost]: Oh!
Shiki: A-are you accusing me...?
Kantaro [Ghost]: Way to go, Shogo!
Reo: Good job! Master Detective!
Rokuta: Do your best, too, Shiki~! Hehe!
Shogo: I'm not saying I'm accusing you! I'm just saying that I haven't seen much of you!
Shiki: ...
Hokusai: I've run into Shiki a few times. It was never for very long, but...
Shiki: T-that's right.
Anne: What about you, Shiki?
Shiki: Huh?
Anne: Who do you think is the culprit?
Shiki: Um... I'm sorry... I'm... a bit scared... I don't know who the imposter is, so I just tried to keep to myself as much as I could... I don't really know who's acting suspicious...
Anne: Hmm...
Shogo: I see...


[Hokusai's screen]

Hokusai: Not acting suspicious is really hard... but I guess I'm not really very good at arguing.
Hokusai: Ah. But Aniki would be really good at this. And if it were Zen, I don't think anyone would doubt him.
Hokusai: I guess I'm just the type who attracts a lot of attention.
Hokusai: Maybe it would be good to spend as much time as possible with someone else.
Hokusai: Ah, but come to think of it... if we finish all of our tasks, we win.
[Popup on screen: The green bar in the top left of the screen indicates the progress of crew tasks. If all tasks are completed, the crew wins.]
Hokusai: We've just got a little further to go, so we might still win...


[Shiki's screen]

[sfx: Thumping heartbeat]
Shiki: I'm acting so suspicious...
Shiki: The number of people is dwindling... I don't think I'm going to make it through the next argument... If I don't take everyone out in this round... that's no good, right?
Shiki: ... ah! Hokusai-kun...! Hokusai-kun took my side even though everyone was doubting me... if at all possible, I'd like to let him live... but I'm running out of time...! I'm sorry!! ... ah!
Shiki: I guess they probably saw it...


[Voting screen]

Anne: Ah... Well, then...
Shogo: I mean, that's pretty conclusive evidence, right...?
Shiki: Um... no, you've got it all wrong! It wasn't me...
Reo [Ghost]: Except it totally was~
Rokuta [Ghost]: Shiki, did you get hasty?
Shiki: I was just so shocked I forgot to hit the report button... y-you've really got it all wrong! Please believe me...
Kantaro [Ghost]: He's sticking to his guns!
Hokusai [Ghost]: I think it's great that he's not giving up.
Anne: Shiki...
Shiki: Um, well... you see...
[bgm: Frantic piano music]
Shiki: I think it might be Shogo-san...!
Shogo: Me!?
Kantaro [Ghost]: Seriously!?
Rokuta [Ghost]: What's gonna happen~?
Shogo: Hey, hold up, why me...!?
Shiki: Please believe me, Anne-san...!
Anne: W-wait, how is this all coming down to me?
Hokusai [Ghost]: The outcome isn't clear until the very end.
Shogo: Shiki-san, at least tell me why you're accusing me!
Shiki: Um, because of, K-Kantaro-san... just a little while ago, he expressed doubts about you, Shogo-san...! And then, right after that, he got killed... so I started suspecting you as well, Shogo-san...
Shogo: I mean, it's fair to say I was a little bit suspicious, but...! But that's not what happened at all! Anne-san, you understand, right!?
Anne: Mmm...
Shiki and Shogo: Anne-san!
Reo [Ghost]: Well, which is it gonna be!?
Anne: Hey, Shiki...
Shiki: !
Anne: To tell the truth, right up until Hokusai was killed, Shogo and I had been together the entire time...
Shiki: Eh...!
Anne: So... I'm sorry, you're obviously the Imposter, Shiki!
Shogo: Right!? I'm sorry, Shiki-san!
Shiki: Uu...
Shogo: Please, may this be right...!


[Victory screen]

Anne: We did it!
Shogo: We won...!
Kantaro: Amazing~!
Reo: Grats!
Hokusai: You did a good job, too, Shiki.
Rokuta: That was great!!
Shiki: Thank you...


[Lobby screen]

Anne: So, do you all feel like you understand the game a bit better now?
Everyone Except Anne: Okay! [With Shiki sounding much more unsure than the others]


[Reo's screen]

Reo: Crewmate again~? But Imposter seems like it'd be a lot of fun, too. Ah, well! Off to do my little tasks!
Reo: I got gotten earlier when I let my guard down for just a minute back there, but this time, I'm gonna survive until the end~!
Reo: Let's catch that Imposter~!
[sfx: Upbeat electronic music]
Reo: Wow, there are so many fallen leaves. We've got those at our house, too; during the fall, there are soooo many fallen leaves all over the place. They're kind of a total pain to clean up. We gotta sweep them all together and bag them up for the trash~.
Reo: Ahh, I wonder if I can get Sacchan to do all of that stuff this year.
Reo: Is Anne actually doing this task...? I'm not gonna take any risks, I'm gonna put some distance between us.
Reo: What kind of card is this?
Reo: Alright, piece of cake~
Reo: Just let me handle it whenever it comes to swiping cards ♪
Reo: Turns out all that charging everything to Aniki's card was worthwhile practice~
Reo: ... ah, I shouldn't have said that. Cut that part out in the edit, 'kay? ♡
Reo: No way, even more leaves!? Haven't I cleaned enough of these? I didn't come all the way to space just to clean up Earth junk~!
Reo: On top of that, why're there so many leaves in space, anyway?
Reo: The workings of this spaceship are an enigm-- ehhh!?!


[Voting screen]

Kantaro: Shogo's been...!?
Reo: Isn't that super fast!?
Shiki: He was alive just a minute ago...
Anne: Where was the body found?
Hokusai: Right near the hallway near the electrical room... so, somewhere around here...
[bgm: Investigative music]
Hokusai: ... Kantaro, you seemed to have come running from the place that Shogo was [BLEEP]ed...
Reo: Eeeeh!!!?
Shiki: Kantaro-san...
Kantaro: No way, no way, no way!!! You are absolutely lying right now! Hokusai-san must be the imposter!!
Hokusai: It's not me...
Reo: Since they're just blaming each other, one or the other of them's definitely the Imposter, right? [laughs]
Kantaro: No I am not!!
Hokusai: I'm not...
Anne: Well... just for right now, I can say that Kantaro and I spent a lot of time together, so for one reason or another, I don't think it's him.
Kantaro: See!? Even Anne-san says it, so--!
Reo: BUT, you weren't together the WHOLE time, right? In the moment that Anne looked away, you could have taken the chance to get Shogo and--!
Kantaro: I did no such thing! You've gotta believe me, or else you're definitely gonna regret it!
Reo: Gee, I wonder~.
Hokusai: Ah... but I'm pretty sure I saw Reo near the place where Shogo was, too...
Shiki: Eh?
Hokusai: Kantaro and Anne were together, but you were running around near the storage facility, weren't you?
Reo: Ehhh!?
Kantaro: Ah, that must be it! Alright, I get it, he was just flinging accusations at me because he was trying to pin the blame on someone else. I think Reo-san is the culprit!
Reo: HAH!? There's absolutely no WAY that I'm the Imposter! Kantaro is acting WAY more suspicious than I am!
Kantaro: What do you mean by that!? You've gotta cough up some PROOF that show I'm the culprit, so come on, cough it up!!
Anne: Kantaro-kun, you are absolutely saying things that make you sound like a criminal... [laughs]
Hokusai: I think you both need to calm down a little.
Reo and Kantaro: I AM CALM!!
Anne: Now, now. By the way... Shiki, Rokuta, what were you guys doing?
Shiki: Huh...?
Rokuta: Huh~?
Anne: Hold up, what's with that reaction?
Shiki: Um...
Rokuta: Hehehe!
Anne: Seems kinda sus~


[Ghost-Shogo's screen]

[bgm: MAGIC CARPET instrumental]
Shogo: Good VISTY afternoon~! Coming at you today is me, SHOGO, who got sent to an early grave!
Shogo: From here on out, I was hoping I could give you a ghost's perspective.
Shogo: ... alright!
Shogo: Ghosts can go right through walls, so it's really easy to get to where you want to go.
Shogo: Looks like Kantaro is in the middle of his tasks, too? Do your best, Kantaro!
Shogo: Seems like everyone else is alive right now...
Shogo: Ah! Has anyone figured out who the Imposter is? He seemed like a pretty strange guy from my perspective, but... Ah, nope, no spoilers!
Shogo: Gotta finish my tasks up quickly, and then I'll take everyone on a spaceship tour!
Shogo: But that said, this task takes a really long time~
Shogo: I wonder, what kind of data is it that I'm transfering, here? [laughs]
Shogo: Do your best, Mini-Me!
Shogo: Ah, there was something I wanted to show everyone!
Shogo: Because I'm a ghost now, I can go out into space!
Shogo: Let's go on an interstellar trip together, Stellas~! ... uwaaaaaaagh!
Shogo: What's with that!? There is SO much trash...!
Shogo: Ah--!


[Voting screen]

Shiki: Hokusai-kun is...
Rokuta: He got beaten...
Reo: That's too cruel~!
Shogo [Ghost]: I feel like I missed something while I was hanging out...
[bgm: Pensive piano music]
Kantaro: But I JUST saw him! I feel like I saw him when he was with Anne...?
Reo: Yeah, I saw him, too! I only saw Hokusai en route, and then he had just vanished, and that's when the report happened!
Anne: Ehh!?
Kantaro: Oh, so it must have been Anne-san, right?
Anne: Hold up, hold up, let's not jump to conclusions so quickly. Let's let Shiki talk for a moment.
Shiki: I discovered Hokusai in the cafeteria. On the left side of the cafeteria... it was really close to the medical bay.
Hokusai [Ghost]: Hmm...
Anne: I haven't been anywhere near that part of the cafeteria, though? And I haven't gone anywhere near the medical bay, either. I don't have any tasks there.
Reo: Eh? Aren't you acting a bit shifty?
Anne: I'm not acting shifty, I'm not acting shifty! [laughs]
Shiki: Um...
Rokuta: I was pretty close to Anne at the time. So, I don't think Anne's the killer~
Reo: Mmm... I guess... Well, maybe Shiki's the Imposter again?
Shiki: Ehh...!?!
Kantaro: Hey, yeah, the Imposter can self-report! After he killed Hokusai, he reported it to make a false accusation!
Shiki: I-it's not me this time...!
Anne: But, if you're ask me, I haven't seen Shiki around anywhere at all.
Shiki: I... all of the tasks I have remaining are in the left part of the map, and if I'm understanding everyone correctly, it seems like everyone else was doing their tasks on the right side. So I guess that's probably why we didn't run into each other...
Reo: Hm... I guess that makes sense...
Anne: Well, I guess we can't draw any conclusions just yet.
Kantaro: Are we skipping again~?
Rokuta: Skippy-skip~!


[Kantaro's screen]

Kantaro: Mmm... if Reo-san or Anne-san were the imposter, I'd be in pretty big trouble~ Both of them are really good talkers, so I'm sure I'd lose the argument if it came down to that.
Kantaro: Personally, I'm also a little suspicious of Rokuta-san, since he hasn't said much... hm...
Kantaro: Rokuta-san has this aura that makes you feel like he couldn't possibly do anything bad, doen't he? Maybe I'm just being weird and paranoid about it, and I feel kinda bad about it... alright!
Kantaro: But anyway, I kinda feel like none of the members of VISTY would be super good at this game?
Kantaro: Shogo and Aoi are bad at being assertive, and Toma acts like a playboy so I think everyone would think he's suspicious, right? [laughs]
Kantaro: Out of all of us, I'm probably the best at stuff like this~
Kantaro: Ah! Maybe we should try playing this on our next Stella Live~? We've never done anything like that before, but we could totally go viral with it! I'll totally have to bring it up to everyone once we're done with this~!


[Anne's screen]

Anne: Is everyone having fun with this social gathering? I thought really hard about what we could do to make the Spring Team really entertaining.
Anne: Since we had this chance, I thought it'd be fun to do something we wouldn't normally get the chance to do, and I thought it'd be fun to do something a little exciting!
Anne: Even if we haven't really talked to each other much, this kind of game is still a lot of fun, right?
Anne: Well, I think that's enough about the backstory! I think it's time to really get serious about figuring out who the culprit is.
Anne: It feels like there's some suspicions floating around me... it'd be a real downer if I got falsely accused and ejected for it.
Anne: Guess I'll just take a look around for now. I wonder if anyone else around here has been attacked yet~?
Anne: Ah, it's [REDACTED]! He's--
Anne: HAH!?!? [in English] WHAT THE FU[BLEEP]!


[Voting screen]

Kantaro: Eh!? I JUST saw them just a second ago!
Reo: Did someone get Anne~!?
Shiki: Um... I think it's Rokuta-kun.
Rokuta: Whyzzat~!?
Shogo [Ghost]: Oh...! It's come to this!
Anne [Ghost]: Shiki on the offensive!
Shiki: Just before the meeting, I saw Rokuta-kun and Anne-san together. I went away from the two of them, heading for the electric room, but... then, Anne-san was...
Anne [Ghost]: I got caught off-guard~!
Shogo [Ghost]: Don't beat yourself up over it!
Kantaro: So you think Rokuta-san is the culprit? I had been thinking he hadn't said much, but...
Rokuta: Yeah, 'cuz I dunno this game super well! If I say something weird it'd cause a lot of trouble for everyone, and that's no good, so I'm being quiet!
Anne [Ghost]: The bravery...
Hokusai [Ghost]: I think it's great to be able to stay quiet.
Reo: Hmm... so, then, isn't that basically just proof that it's Shiki?
Shiki: Eh!? Why...!?
Reo: That's that, then!
Kantaro: Why are you just making decisions on a whim like that!? If we mess this one up, aren't we completely boned?!
Reo: But the two of us didn't see the crime scene, so in the end, don't we just have to make a decision based on gut feeling anyway?
Kantaro: Well, yeah, but!
Reo: Don't worry about it! My hunches are always super good~ ♪
Kanaro: But shouldn't we talk it out a little more!?
Anne [Ghost]: That's true.
Shiki: If we skip this turn, we may be able to win by finishing up our tasks...?
Rokuta: Shiki, you say that, but could it be you really just want a chance to chomp everyone up~?
Shiki: Th-that's not true at all...!
Rokuta: Iiiis iiit~?
Shogo [Ghost]: It seems like Shiki-san is suffering...!
Kantaro: Ah... we only have ten seconds left... Eh!? What should I do!?
Hokusai [Ghost]: I hope everyone does their best whatever they choose.
Kantaro: What do I do!? Aaagh! Why don't we have more time!? Did it go in for Shiki-san!? Is this really alright!?
Shiki: Ah... ah...
Reo: Just trust me~!
Shiki: Aaagh...!
Shogo, Anne, and Hokusai [Ghosts]: Ah...


[Rokuta's screen]

Reo: ... huh?
Kantaro: Why didn't the game end!? Once you eject the Imposter, the game is supposed to end, right!?
[bgm: Bach's "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor"]
Rokuta: Hehehehehehe!! So, about that... that's 'cuz I'm the Imposter~!
Reo and Kantaro: Hah!?!
Rokuta: Mwahaha!
Kantaro: You mean it wasn't Shiki-san!?
Reo: WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT!!
Kantaro: GET AWAY!!!
Rokuta: Here I come!! I wiiin~!
Reo and Kantaro: [screaming bloody murder]


[Victory screen]

Anne: You really got us good~
Shiki: I told you that I wasn't the Imposter...
Reo: I'm sorry, geeze!!


[Lobby screen]

Anne: So! For the last round, we'll be mixing up the rules a little bit... we're gonna play tag!
[Text on screen: RULES: If tasks are completed before the Imposter kills everyone, the Crewmates win!
If the Imposter kills five people before the tasks are complete, the Imposter wins!]

Anne: These are the rules: if the Crewmates can avoid getting caught by the Imposter and complete all their tasks, they win. And if the Imposter kills all of the Crewmates, then they win! The rules are simple, right?
[Text on screen: GAME SETTINGS:
Number of Tasks: Few
Movement Speed: Maximum
Report & Discussion: None
Imposter's Vision and Kill Range: Low]

Anne: For the "tag" version of this game, I've changed a bunch of game settings, so take note of that.
Everyone Except Anne: Okay!
Anne: Also, whoever is the Imposter, please say so when you know your role!
Anne: Alright! Let the game of tag begin~!
Everyone: Yay!


[Hokusai's Screen]

Hokusai: Ah. I'm the Imposter.
Anne: Alright, then, Hokusai-kun, give us until the count of 10!
Anne: Everyone, scatter! Run away~!
Rokuta: Wah~!
Hokusai: 10, 9, 8...
Kantaro: Oh no oh no oh no oh no
Hokusai: 7, 6...
Shogo: I've gotta get out of here!
Hokusai: 5, 4...
Rokuta: Wow, we run fast~!
Hokusai: 3, 2...
[bgm: Offenbach's "Infernal Galop" slowly fading in]
Shiki: We just have to do our tasks, right?
Reo: Maybe I should just work on staying a room away at all times!
Hokusai: 1. Everyone, here I come.
Hokusai: There's nobody in the cafeteria...?
Rokuta: Nope~!
Shogo: We are moving way too fast, it's kind of hard to do my tasks...
Reo: YAGH!!!!
Hokusai: Found you.
Reo: I'M SCARED I'M SCARED I'M SCARED!!! NOOO, I DON'T TASTE GOOD!!! GO EAT SOMEONE ELSE! DON'T COME NEAR MEEEE!! [crying]
Hokusai: Reo, you're fast...
Kantaro: Did he give him the slip!?
Rokuta: Amazing~!
Hokusai: I want to see everyone soon. But where are they... maybe here?
Shiki: --!
Anne: This is like a horror movie. [laughs]
Shogo: Seriously...
Hokusai: Shiki... you're nearby, right?
Shiki: M-me...!?
Hokusai: Where did you go?
Shiki: Uwah...! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!!
Anne: Hold up, is Hokusai-kun using the air vents!?
Kantaro: This movement isn't beginner-friendly at all~!
Hokusai: But winning will be hard.
Anne: These settings are a bit tough, huh?
Shogo: I'm glad we have a bit of a handicap...
Hokusai: Ah. Shiki.
Shiki: Ah... ah...!! Ah!!
Hokusai: Sorry.
Shiki [Ghost]: Even in-game, I can't run fast...
Reo: Did he get you, Shiki!?
Kantaro: At last, he drew first blood...
Shogo: We've barely made any progress with our tasks!?
Rokuta: Wah! There he is!!
Hokusai: Number two...
Rokuta: Ah...
Kantaro: Are we getting picked off one by one!?!
Rokuta [Ghost]: I got got...
Reo: This is bad, I think Hokusai may have gotten the hang of this!
Hokusai: Hehe.
Kantaro: Ah, come on, why does the downloading task take so long!! I feel like I'm just a sitting duck standing around in the open like this, it's scary!!
Reo: RIGHT!?
Shogo: Ah, ah, ah, AAAAAAAAAH--!
Kantaro: Did he get Shogo!?
Anne: Crap, he's whittling us down!
Reo: Hokusai, you'll spare me, right~? 'Cause we're teammates, RIGHT!?
Kantaro: Hey, are you trying to throw the rest of us under the bus!?
Anne: Well played, Reo-kun. [laughs]
Reo: WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!
Hokusai: Wait...
Reo: WHY ON EARTH WOULD I WAIT!? Hold on! Why aren't we done with tasks yet!?
Rokuta [Ghost]: Nope, we're not done!
Shogo [Ghost]: Let's all do our best!
Reo: Wah! I can't shake him!! If you're gonna do it, do it now!!
Hokusai: My kill cooldown timer is longer than you might expect...
Shiki [Ghost]: I finished my tasks...!
Shogo [Ghost]: Me, too!
Kantaro: All of a sudden, we're making a lot of progress with the tasks!
Hokusai: Ah. Flamingo.
Anne: WAAAAAAH!!! ... ah, I got caught...
Hokusai: The only ones left are... Reo and Kantaro, right?
Shogo [Ghost]: You're really good at running away...!
Kantaro: WHY DO I FEEL LIKE I'M NOT BEING COMPLIMENTED HERE?!
Shiki [Ghost]: You two, avoid him...!
Reo: Trust me, I didn't need to be told to avoid him!!
Rokuta: Hokusai, you do your best, too~!
Hokusai: Yeah. Thank you. I feel like I've gotten a feel for the kill range, so I think if I find someone, I'll be able to kill them right away.
Reo: That's way too scary!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAH!?!
Anne, Shogo, Shiki, Rokuta [Ghosts]: Ah...


[Victory screen]

Hokusai: Looks like I win.
Rokuta: You were too good at this~!
Shogo: We tried, but we still lost.
Anne: But we shouldn't discount how well Kantaro-kun played.
Kantaro: I managed to survive until the end!
Rokuta: So then Kantaro, you're the King of Running Away!
Kantaro: Eh... I don't think I like that title...


[Menu screen]

Anne: And that concludes our death game~! What'd you all think? It was a lot of fun, right?
Rokuta: It was so fun~! I thought it was gonna be really hard before we started, but once we started, it was surprisingly easy to pick up!
Reo: I mean, you managed to win alone as the Imposter, right?
Shiki: Rokuta-kun, you're very good at this.
Rokuta: Ehehe, thanks~!
Shogo: I'll admit, when I heard we were playing a death game, I felt a little bit uneasy, but once we got into the swing of it, it was a lot of fun!
Anne: I'm glad to hear that!
Kantaro: I kinda wanna give it another try~
Reo: Right? I wanna get a chance to try playing as the Imposter!
Shiki: I think I'd prefer to keep playing as a Crewmate...
Anne: I think you did a really great job doing your best, Shiki.
Hokusai: It was fun playing with everyone.
Reo and Kantaro: For real!
Shiki and Shogo: Yes!
Rokuta: I think so too~!
Anne: Well then, I think we can call this social gathering a great success! We've deepened our bonds, and we can put that into Spring team's song!
Kantaro: Ah, but the song isn't about a death game! I'm planning on giving it a really cute spring-like feel!
Hokusai: Look forward to it.
Anne: Let's all work together and give it our all to get this done! And so, that's it for the Spring team's social gathering! Everyone, thank you for watching! Bye-bye!
Reo and Rokuta: Bye-bye!
Shiki: Thank you very much...!
Shogo and Kantaro: Bye VISTY~!
Hokusai: Bye-bye.
