White Day 2026

On this page, you'll see my translations and archives of all of the things that were released for White Day (March 14th), 2026!

SD Art & Greetings

The captions refer to the Valentine's senryuu (a form of Japanese poetry very similar to haiku) campaign that was run over, well, Valentine's day, with the responses being the characters' responses to the senryuu they received.

The characters responded directly to one senryu each in a special post, but because I really don't want to try and translate 29 poems, please forgive me if I don't want to translate those.

Akan Yatsura
"Much obliged for all the love poem senryuu! Sixth men, consider your feelings received~!"

VISTY
"We were all really happy to receive all of the senryuu from our Stellas! But today, it's our turn to cast a spell in return. We love you!"

The Cat's Whiskers
"That such passionate feelings are contained within the 5-7-5 format of a senryuu are truly moving. In return for your feelings, we offer you our deepest gratitude.

GokuLuck
"All of us here in GokuLuck received all of your senryuu. We are all very, unique individuals... we would all like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone."

1Nm8
"We will treasure these words that you have chosen to share with us."

AMPRULE
"These are the words that you mere worms took the time to painstakingly craft. I acknowledge your effort. Consider this an honor."

cozmez
"Happened to see them when I was scrolling. Well, guess they weren't terrible."

BAE
"Everyone's senryuu were full of really great impact lines, and the wordplay was great, too! Thanks!"

Buraikan
"Everyone wrote such great senryuu. All that passionate love you've got really came across."

Mini-Episodes

Satsuki: ... y'did. Yeah, 'ppreciated it...
Reo: Hey, what're you muttering to yourself about? Are you doing something gross?
Satsuki: Uoaoa!? Bastard! Since when have you been standing there!?
Reo: I just got here. So, again, what're you doing?
Satsuki: Ah, well, this is... y'know... gotta, pay the cast girls respect on White Day and all...
Reo: Wait, what?! Oh my god, were you rehearsing how you were gonna give them their return gifts!?
Reo: Ahahhah! Hey, everyone~! Come over here~!
Zen: What's the matter, Reo-kun? Why did you shout so loudly all of a sudden?
Hokusai: Did something happen?
Iori: Don't tell me you and Satsuki are fightin' again?
Reo: No, it's not like that! Sacchan was practicing how he's gonna give his White Day gifts to the cast girls!
Iori: Is that so! Looks like he's up to some funny business again, don't it~?
Satsuki: Y-you all got a problem with that!?
Hokusai: Not at all. I think it's great that you're trying your best.
Zen: You should always pay back the favors you receive! Upholding your honor and loyalty is a great thing!
Reo: Yeah but it's still super funny to be rehearsing it on your own!
Hokusai: Satsuki. Do you think you'll be able to successfully hand over your thank-you present?
Satsuki: Of course I can!!
Reo: You sure~? Well, then, show us the results of your practice with Zen-nii!
Zen: M-me!?
Iori: That's fuckin' hilarious! Satsuki, show us what you got!
Satsuki: Y-yeah! Alright, time to man up, watch out 'cuz you're gonna watch the great Satsuki freakin' nail this!!
--- A short time later ---
Hokusai: Alright. Are you ready?
Iori: Aaand, action!
Zen: Satsuki-kun... whyever did you call me out here? Oh my, is something the matter?
Reo: Zen-nii's really getting into character, isn't he? (laughing)
Iori: Reo, keep it down! (also laughing)
Satsuki: U-uh, well, uh, this is...
Zen: Why... could this be... mayhaps...?
Satsuki: Y-yeah. It's, uh, for White Day. Dunno if you like this kinda thing, but...
Hokusai: He's doing a good job talking.
Iori: Attaboy! Just gotta close it out, Satsuki...!
Satsuki: I really... preciationed it??
Reo: Aaand faceplanted in the final stretch.

Shogo: Good evening, all of you Stellas!
Toma: I'm sure you don't need reminding what day it is! Today's our special White Day broadcast!
Kantaro: Today, as our return for your Valentine's Day gifts, we'll be doing a whole bunch of viewer requests!
Aoi: I received quite a lot of love from my princesses on Valentine's Day, so I'm hoping I'll be able to give all of that love back in return until the very end of today.
Shogo: Alright, let's get started reading everyone's comments!
Kantaro: Let's see... This comment! From Sparkling Brightest Star-san!
Kantaro: Their request for Toma is, "please give us your best fanservice"!
Toma: Leave it to me! You'll be getting Dokkon LOVE: Special White Day Edition!
Toma: To Sparkling Brightest Star-chan, here's a Venti 100% Extra Sweet Quad Heavy Affection Extra Whipped Cream and Super-Sweet Syrup on Top Dokkon LOVE!
Aoi: No, hold up, what was all of that? (laughs)
Toma: A Venti 100% Extra Sweet Quad Heavy Affection Extra Whipped Cream and Super-Sweet Syrup on Top Dokkon LOVE, obviously!
Kantaro: It's really impressive how you can just do that off the top of your head without skipping a beat!
Shogo: It's like he's packing every sweet in the world into one! That's really incredible!
Toma: And yet it still may not be sufficient to repay all the BIG LOVE we're getting on the daily!
--- A little while later ---
Shogo: Alright, this last comment's gonna be the last one! This one's from "Supernova-ko", and she says, "I want all of the members of VISTY to praise me for working hard every day"!
Kantaro: 'Kay~! We'll all pile on the praise!
Aoi: Alright, then... how about we go in order from me, to Toma, to Kantaro, to Shogo?
Aoi: Princess, you're truly amazing for getting up early every morning despite the cold and for working so hard. The way you never give up and face every challenge head-on is astoundingly cool. Like a flower blooming in the wildnerness, my princess, you are the most wonderful person in the world. I love you.
Toma: TBH, the fact that you're alive is already more than worth a perfect score! But on top of that, you even go out of your way to like and support us, so you're seriously like a living angel! Working so hard every day is SUPER amazing!
Kantaro: I'm sure you've been through a bunch of really tough and unpleasant stuff, but you gotta remember that there's people who are being saved and people who are being made to smile just because you exist! Just the fact that you're around is super important, so you gotta believe in yourself~! You're really working hard, and that's super admirable!
Shogo: Let me start by saying thank you so much for coming to today's stream! Just like Kantaro said earlier, I'm one of those people who's being saved and made to smile just because you're around. So I hope you're able to be happy every day, and I want to do anything I can to help that happen! It's great to work hard, but I want you to remember to treat yourself sometimes!
Toma: Whoa, hold up! Sho-chin's message is hitting even me, myself, and I right where I live!
Kantaro: I know, right?! It's really touching me, too~!
Shogo: Oh, uh, really? Hearing everyone say that is making me a little embarrassed...
Aoi: There's no need to be embarrassed! You're just proving that you're the leader!
Shogo: Ah, thank you! ... Ah... it's hard to say goodbye, but it's time to wrap up...!
Kantaro: Ohh nooooo, he's riiiiight!! Well, everyone, thanks for tuning in today! We'll see you again soon, 'kay?
Toma: I'd be happy if we were seeing our Stellas every day, every hour, every second! Seriously huge dokkon LOVE to everyone watching!
Aoi: Let's stay together not just this year, but next year, the year after that, and forevermore. I was very happy to see you today.
Shogo: Ah, I really don't want to end stream... but we'll go live again soon, so please come and watch again! With that, everyone, bye VISTY~!!

Shiki: Um... can I maybe ask for some advice...?
Saimon: My, you look serious. What's wrong?
Yohei: What's givin' you trouble?
Shiki: It's just, what should I give as a return gift for the Valentine's Day chocolates that I received...?
Ryu: Waow! That's nice, that's nice~!! Ryu-kun wants chocolate, too~!!
Shiki: She gave them to everyone in our class, so it's not like I think she was giving them especially to me... but I still want to give something in return.
Saimon: I see. Well, I'm sure that if you pick something out with the other person in mind, Shiki, I'm sure she'll be very happy, whatever it is.
Saimon: However, if I had to say... there are also people who theorize that there is meaning in return gifts as well. It's just one way of thinking about things, but if you're concerned about that, it may be something to take into consideration.
Shiki: What do you mean?
Saimon: For example, marshmallows and gummi candies could be taken to mean, 'I hate you'.
Ryu: Huh? But they taste good? So why's that?
Saimon: Apparently, it's because they dissolve and disappear very quickly. Also, handkerchiefs are said to bring images of 'saying goodbye' to mind.
Yohei: Sounds like a pain in the ass.
Shiki: I didn't know any of that. I guess that's just another way of thinking about it...
Ryu: Hey, hey, how about candies that make your tongue turn lots of cool colors~!
Yohei: You a fuckin' grade schooler? That ain't the kind of present a high schooler's gonna want to get.
Ryu: It'll be super duper fun~ Everyone can show each other their tongues~!
Shiki: Ahaha... that might be, a little bit too far...
Saimon: How about some convenient tea bags? To enjoy in breaks between studying.
Yohei: Ain't no fun in that, professor.
Ryu: Master, what would you give~?
Yohei: ... I guess if it were me, I'd go with a baumkuchen from a nice bakery, I guess.
Shiki: Um, owner, what's the meaning of a baumkuchen...?
Saimon: It means "may your happiness last a long time". It brings to mind the accumulation of happiness with time, like rings on a tree.
Ryu: Oho? Did Master already know that?
Yohei: ... I'm a bartender, I gotta know at least a little.
Shiki: Accumulating happiness... I think that's wonderful.
Shiki: And now that you mention it... I think a new store with baumkuchen opened up nearby recently...
Ryu: Ryu-kun knows it! The shop with a kitty on the sign, right~?
Shiki: I'll go over and take a look. It would be nice if they had a cat-shaped baumkuchen.
Saimon: I think that's very nice. I think it will make a lovely return gift.
Shiki: Thank you for listening to my concerns, everyone.

Yuto: Everyone! Can you all gather 'round?
Shion: What do you want. I was going to take a nap.
Yuto: Pardon the interruption, but I have something that I'd like to give as a gift to everyone. Could you please call Mikoshiba-kun and Tosa-kun over as well?
Shion: Sounds like a pain. Oh, well.
--Everyone gathers--
Kenta: So what is it, shitty prison guard? If you gathered us for something lame you're on my shitlist.
Ryoga: Don't care what it is. Let's just get this over with.
Yuto: Alright, then! Here's a present for everyone! Tadaaah!
Kenta: Isn't going "tadaah" cringe as hell at your big age? ... the fuck are these?
Shion: Macarons...?
Yuto: I guess I shouldn't be surprised that you're familiar, Kaida-kun, you know a lot!
Ryoga: What's even the point of these?
Yuto: Well, a lady in my neighborhood recommended them to me as a good gift for White Day.
Shion: Explains why you bought them. But what does White Day have to do with any of us?
Yuto: It's true that it may not be directly related, but I think it's nice to do something like this every once in a while. Don't you think so?
Kenta: If you're gonna buy anything, at least buy something more straightforward, like pizza.
Ryoga: Hey, Shion. What do these macaron things taste like? Are they sweet? Or salty?
Shion: Well, there's various flavors, but as a rule, they're sweet.
Yuto: I see! I've never tried them, myself, so I thought that everyone could all try them together.
Kenta: Then taste it for poison. You go ahead and eat it first, Inukai.
Shion: I don't think it's that big a deal. (laughs) Then, I'll go ahead.
Ryoga: ... how'zit?
Shion: Yup, it's sweet. No surprises there.
Yuto: Wow, it really is! This is quite tasty! I think this one seems to be pistachio flavored.
Ryoga: I'm gonna try them too. Shibaken, if yuou don't want it, give it to me.
Kenta: Who said I didn't want it! ... what the hell's up with this texture?! Why's it all sticky?
Yuto: Um... so do you not like it?
Ryoga: It tastes good. But it's tiny. No way this is gonna be enough.
Shion: Right? It looks like a bean in between Ryoga's fingers. (laughs)
Kenta: Oi, Inukai. Go buy more snacks to cleanse my palate. You have ten seconds.
Yuto: W-wait, hold on, these were actually pretty expensive...!

Rokuta: Hey, Kei-chan, Itsuki-nii! White Day's coming soon!
Itsuki: It's a day to express gratitude and reciprocate the kindness that people you are close to have shown you, correct?
Rokuta: Uh-huh! I've been seeing a bunch of sweets out in stores, but it's okay to give stuff that isn't just sweets, right?
Kei: When I was in VISTY, we once held a performance on White Day. It was a big 'thank you' to all of the Stellas for all of the support they had shown us.
Rokuta: Performing a concert as a return gift is super nice!
Rokuta: The sweets look super yummy and I wanna eat them, but since today's White Day, I should leave them alone, right?
Itsuki: I don't think that it's necessarily a problem...
Rokuta: No, 'cuz, if I did buy them, then someone else who really wanted to give something back to the people they wanted to thank wouldn't be able to buy it, and I think that'd be bad.
--Rokuta was looking at the shelves in the store that were running low on stock.--
Kei: Rokuta is very kind.
Itsuki: ... well then, how about we buy one of those today?
---Itsuki points to the display window of the cake shop.---
Rokuta: Huh? Which... wait, you mean a cake!?
Itsuki: Yes. Just for today, it's not simply a slice of cake. It's the whole cake.
Rokuta: Wha?! But it's not even anyone's birthday, is that really okay!?
Itsuki: It is no imposition. I have been making sweets from scratch as of late instead of buying them from the store, and so we have some extra money in the budget.
Rokuta: YAAAY!! Thank you, Itsuki-nii!!
Kei: Ahaha. Which cake would you like to eat, Rokuta?
Rokuta: Hm... the biggest one they've got!!
Itsuki: ... it appears that the largest cake this shop sells is approximately 21cm in diameter.
Kei: That might be difficult to carry home; will it be alright?
Rokuta: You don't gotta worry about anything, Kei-chan! I'll definitely get the cake home safe and sound!
--- Rokuta holds the cake box very carefully. ---
Rokuta: Wow, it's really heavy.
Kei: Is it too heavy?
Rokuta: Nuh-uh, it's totally fine! It's like, a good kind of heavy!
Itsuki: Be careful not to fall or drop it as you go.
Rokuta: Yup! Let's all eat cake together when we get back!

Dongha: Is this list everyone?
Chungsung: That is correct. The appropriate thank-you gift is listed next to the name.
Dongha: Honestly... I would never have expected that preparing White Day gifts would be such a lengthy undertaking.
Chungsung: It just goes to show how much everybody loves you, Bocchama.
Dongha: I wonder.
Chungsung: It pleases me to no end to see my master receiving such ample affection from all those around him.
Dongha: Stop with the empty praise.
Chungsung: By no means is it empty. It is no wonder at all that people are drawn to your beauty and charisma, Bocchama.
Dongha: Enough with this prattle. Let's check the list.
Chungsung: Understood.
Dongha: ... oi, Chungsung.
Chungsung: Is something the matter?
Dongha: What's with this list? There are blank lines in the section for the return gifts!
Chungsung: Those were left blank because I was unable to make a satisfactory decision on the matter.
Dongha: What do you mean?
Chungsung: Those individuals whose return gift line is blank are people who sent not only typical Valentine's Day offerings, but also letters, flowers, and other such items.
Dongha: What of it?
Chungsung: I meant to inquire whether or not we should send a separate and more thoughtful gift to those individuals...
Dongha: That will be unnecessary. They probably just sent those gifts with the intention of getting closer to the Yeon family, anyway.
Chungsung: ... so, then, it would be alright to send them the same items as everyone else will be receiving?
Dongha: That's correct. I'll leave it to you.
Chungsung: ... understood.
Dongha: What's with the half-hearted answer? .... Chungsung, bring me some tea. I'm thirsty.
Chungsung: I will bring it to you at once. Please wait just a moment.
Dongha: Hmph, letters and flowers...
Dongha: No, even on Valentine's Day, I'm sure nobody would harbor feelings like that for me...
Chungsung: So shall we prepare a special return gift that is different from the others?
Dongha: Hey! Didn't you leave to go make tea!?
Chungsung: I simply forgot to inquire about what tea leaves you would prefer...
Dongha: Anything is fine! Just get out of here!!
Chungsung: Understood. Hehehe...

Nayuta: Potato chips're good, but steamed meat bun's're good, too...
Nayuta: Hey, Kana-- ... ?
Kanata: Oi, Nayuta, look at this!!
Nayuta: What the heck has got you so excited??
Kanata: Isn't this sick as hell? This chocolate. It's 90% off.
Nayuta: For real. ... hah? The original price is over a thousand yen. What gives?
Kanata: Looking over it, it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with it, so why the hell is this going on?
Nayuta: Maybe it's laced?
Kanata: You think so? Man, can't even trust a convenience store.
Kanata: Then everything on that rack was fake, you think?
Nayuta: What rack are you talking about?
Kanata: That bin over there. It had a whole bunch of stuff just hucked in it.
Nayuta: I'm curious about what else it had in it. Let's go check it out.
Kanata: 'Ight.
--- The two head over to the clearance sale rack.---
Nayuta: Is this it?
Kanata: Check it out, this chocolate is super cheap, too.
Nayuta: ...? Looks like there's something written here.
Nayuta: "White Day Sale"?
Kanata: What the fuck is "White Day"?
Nayuta: ... beats the hell out of me.
Kanata: Since it's 'white day', why isn't any of it white?
Nayuta: I didn't know before and I haven't learned in the last five seconds.
Kanata: Well, whatever. But if it's on sale, that means it's super discounted off the regular price, right?
Nayuta: Sure looks like it.
Kanata: Well, that's a bargain, then. Doesn't look like it's past the expiration date, either.
Nayuta: Sweet. Let's load up and buy as many as we can with the money we've got on us and then head home. We can stuff our faces with those huge heart-shaped ones, it'll be great.
Kanata: For real. 'Ight, let's do that, then.
Nayuta: Ah, but I was gonna get some potato chips or a meat bun.
Kanata: Sure. I'll buy this chocolate, so you just go ahead and buy whatever you want, Nayuta.
Nayuta: For real!? Kanata, which do you think I should get, potato chips or a meat bun?
Kanata: If you want to eat them, I'll buy both of them for you. C'mon, let's go to the register.

Anne: Hey, Allen, you finished with yours yet?
Allen: No, I've still got like ten more to go...!
Anne: Alright, give me half. I'll help you out.
Hajun: I am indebited to the both of you. Please do not overexert yourselves.
Anne: Don't worry about it. You couldn't possibly pack up this many return gifts by yourself.
Allen: And besides that, it's really important to give return gifts properly on White Day!
Hajun: Indeed it is. So my apologies, but can you give it one last outpouring of effort?
Anne: That said, you really do receive a ridiculous amount of chocolate every year.
Allen: In fact, I'd argue that he keeps getting more each year...
Hajun: But of course. It simply won't do to allow my appeal to stay the same from year to year.
Allen: ... suddenly, I feel like I don't want to help you anymore.
Anne: But it is true that Hajun's visuals have been getting even better, haven't they? (laughs)
Hajun: Thank you very much. Have the two of you sorted out your return gifts?
Allen: I've already taken care of mine. And I wrote short letters for all of them, too.
Anne: Allen really takes these kinds of traditions seriously, doesn't he? (laughs)
Hajun: What about you, Anne?
Anne: I've already given my return gifts to all of my friends! But to be honest, I'm more the type to receive gifts on White Day. See?
Hajun: From CANDY customers?
Anne: Yup! Since I gave them chocolate, they have to open up lots of bottles of champagne with me!
Allen: Be careful you don't drink too much... okay! Hajun, I've finished packing these!
Anne: Finally!! I'm done with mine, too!
Hajun: Thank you very much. With that, everything is finished, yes?
Anne: Man, I'm tired!
Allen: Yeah. I was just as focused on making sure not to offend the people who gave me Valentine's Day gifts as I usually am on songwriting.
Anne: No kidding~? Hey, Hajun, I'm kinda hungry.
Allen: Yeah, me too. Should we all go out to eat something?
Hajun: I was anticipating this, so I made a reservation at a restaurant already.
Anne: Oh, wow! That's Hajun for you~! We all really put in the effort! What're we gonna eat?
Haju: Since you've both worked so hard, I will treat you to yakiniku.
Allen: YESSSS! I'm gonna eat a ton today!
Anne: Let's open lots of wine, too! Hajun, I'll be sure to help you out again next year, too~!
Hajun: Good grief, it looks like I'll be footing quite the hefty bill for the two of you, won't I?

Haruomi: Everywhere you turn in town, everyone is focused on White Day.
Chisei: Wow, that's a rare sight. Never thought you'd be the type to be caught up in a frivolous event like this.
Haruomi: I am not getting 'caught up'. However, it is true that this is a good opportunity to attract customers.
Chisei: White Day at Raimentei? Sounds like a total mismatch!
Haruomi: I feel like the almond tofu and sesame balls I aleady serve aren't going to be sufficient.
Chisei: So you're trying to capture a new clientele? Wow, guess the shop really must be on hard times.
Haruomi: And so, I'm thinking of developing a new limited-edition sweet.
Chisei: Sweets, huh? Back when I played basketball, I used to get absolutely bombarded with them around Valentine's Day.
Haruomi: Does your bragging have anything to do with helping me with menu development?
Chisei: It totally does. The opinion of a total babe magnet's valuable here, isn't it?
Haruomi: ... then what's your suggestion, "babe magnet".
Chisei: How about... sanbuzhan?
Haruomi: You mean that legendary dim sum?
Chisei: That's the one! Doesn't stick to the plate, doesn't stick to the chopsticks, doesn't stick to your teeth!
Haruomi: ... rejected.
Chisei: Aw, why? I've tried it before, it's really good!
Haruomi: Do you have any idea how it's made? You have to keep beating it hundreds of times in the wok.
Chisei: What's the problem? Surely, you can handle it no problem, right, Haruomi?
Haruomi: Don't be ridiculous. I wouldn't be able to drain the water from the ramen noodles. My arm would give out.
Chisei: Ahaha! Even the legendary rapper can't beat a legendary dim sum, huh?
Haruomi: This is not a joke. I am not going to serve menu items that would make it impossible for me to use the rest of the kitchen.
Chisei: Man, what a shame. So then what can you make with the ingredients you've got lying around the shop?
Haruomi: Something I have in the shop...? I always have a large supply of eggs.
Chisei: Eggs! How 'bout egg tarts?
Haruomi: I see. It's quite famous as a dim sum item.
Chisei: It seems like the kind of things that chicks would dig, so it would be perfect for White Day.
Haruomi: Attracting customers with the aroma of freshly-baked goods... is not a terrible idea.
Haruomi: When I get back, I'll start working on a prototype. If I'm going to make it, I'm going to make it the best tart anyone has ever had.
Chisei: And there goes Mr. Perfectionist!
Haruomi: Of course. I have no intention of serving my customers a compromised product.
