Do you see them anywhere?!

No, I'm not seeing them.

The parade seems to be about half over.
At this rate...

I guess we're not gonna be able to watch it together...

No, don't give up...!
It's not over yet! If we just keep looking...

Wow...!
What is that?! It's so pretty!

Wait, it's snowing!
But just around that girl...!
How are they doing that?!

It's snowing...?

How's that possible...?

Hey...!
Isn't that Shizuku?!

I don't believe it...
That girl with the white haori looks like a real yuki-onna...

I can't believe they're getting it to snow!

Wait, she looks familiar... Where have I seen her before...?

Okay, Hinomori. Ready?

Yes...!

(Just like Kamishiro said. Raise your right arm and...)

(Now! Full power!)

Whoa!
She's making more snow!

Perfect...!

(Please, everyone! It's us...!)

Haha...

Hah hah hah hah!
I should expect no less from our director! Bravo!

Don't forget about Shizuku!
That frosty look on her face... It's like she's the real thing!

Hehe.
It's certainly hard to miss them.

Rui! Shizuku!
We're over here!

...!

Kamishiro, I see Tsukasa and the others...!

Yes, I just saw them as well!

We'll wait for you guys at the end!

Okay!

I have to say, Rui, your idea was spectacular!

Yeah, I don't think any of us were expecting you to make yourselves seen like that.

Yes, not only was it unexpected, but you had all the other onlookers completely captivated.

You totally blew everyone away!
You really are a genius, Kamishiro...!

Hehe. I feel honored.

However, if all eyes were really on us...

I wasn't really sure when she walked past us, but isn't that Shizuku Hinomori...?

Yeah, it's gotta be her!
Wanna go say hi?

...!
This could get messy.

Nonsense. All we have to do is use this crowd for cover.

Next!
Here come the professionals!

Ah, perfect timing!

Now, let's enjoy this parade together!

Yeah!
Yes!

Whoa! I don't think these count as costumes anymore! They look like real spirits from folklore!

Yes, they're very realistic.
I believe they're inspired by namahage.

Those ogres look absolutely amazing!

That rokurokubi...! Her neck just keeps growing longer and longer! How are they doing that...?!

Her head looks way too real!

That person dressed as a tengu must have incredible balance. Their sandals look like stilts...

Whoa, it's a kuchisake-onna...

Imagine seeing one of those at night! I bet we'd all scream while running for our lives!

Haha. I'm not sure we'd be that scared...

“Am I pretty...?”

Whoa!

That was you, Kamishiro...?!

Geez, you really got us!
Miyake even fell over!

Th-That was mean, Kamishiro!

Hah hah hah!
My apologies.

Oh, Rui, look!
The floats are coming! This must be the finale!

It's like a climactic scene!
All those spirits...! And only I, Tsukasa Tenma the Spirit Busting High Schooler can defeat them!

Hehe. In Kyoto no less.
That certainly sounds like a fun action-adventure story.

Exactly!
Oh, and that black tengu would be the final boss! No, he'd be my enemy at first, but later my ally...

Hehe...

(I'm so glad I came...)

(Because I wouldn't have been able to see this event with them if I hadn't.)

(Not only that, our school trip is the only reason we did anything together at all.)

(So, for now...)

(I should enjoy this one-night-only performance.)

Well, I guess that's it for today...

Yes, quite a lot happened along the way, but it ended up being a wonderful day.

Thanks for having us, you guys!

N-No... We should be the ones thanking you. You made the day just that much better.

I agree!
What we experienced today will surely remain in our album of memories for years to come!

Our album...

Hehe. I believe so too!

Anyway, we'll see you all.

Everyone.

How about we take a group photo together?

A group photo?

Yes.
I'd like to have something to commemorate this day with.

Yes, I'd like that as well!
Oh, but my phone's battery is still...

Then, we can use mine!
I'll see if one of the staff can take it for us!

Why this all of a sudden, Rui...?
You never usually suggest doing anything like this.

Yes, I know.

But I thought it'd be nice to for a change.

Yes, I agree!

Bunch together you guys!
Get ready!

Okay, everyone!
Say, “Cheese!”
