Oop, what a long day.

Kuguri Icon

Really, I didn't think we'd do that much heavy labor.

Ryui Icon
Ryui

We ended up just running around in fuckin' towels........ well, at least everything's fine now.

Yodaka Icon
Yodaka

Well, are you okay with this Chihiro?

Chihiro Icon
Chihiro

Mm? With what?

Yodaka Icon
Yodaka

The improvement plan you proposed seems like we'll be giving up on our idea earlier, to make a "relaxing inn".

Chihiro Icon
Chihiro

Not at all! Chii hasn't given up on anything, yanno?

Actually, I'm thinking 'bout developing the plan into a greedy all-inclusive kinda thing, so it's more like an evolution from the concept!

I want to make sure that both the relaxation stuff and the challenging activities are in tip-top shape, so everybody better help out ☆

My my, his gyaru spirit has made a full comeback.

Looks like we're gonna get busy.

Kuguri Icon

Good grief... no choice then.

....So this is the hot spring inn that's been the talk of HAMA, "Ejimura Hot Springs ver. 2.0.0".

It's been popping up in various ads recently, so my curiosity got the better of me.

Taking a break at a place like this could lead to some new inspiration too!

HHHHHHOOOOHHHHHH????????!!!!!!

The moment you step into the building, you're immediately greeted by this peculiar interior design and an overwhelming amount of decor....!!!

A truly masterful display of taste and style. As an eyelash artist, my blood is boiling with excitement....!!

Customer A

So, which area should we go to first?

Customer B Icon
Customer B

Having 4 options makes it hard to choose, huh!

Gannosuke Icon
Gannosuke

That's right... The establishment is divided into 4 areas. I heard that it was designed to be enjoyable for various types of customers.

They're also having a collaboration with that Alpha Dazzler with the cute eyelashes.

This time for sure, we'll get that buried treasure fair and square....!

Aight, time to head to the "Mr. Digger - Golden Chapter" area and join in the activities!

Romance awaits us—!

Hmm... then I'll put away my luggage first, and afterwards head to the art appreciation area named "The Museum of the Immovables' Whispers".

....Oya?

Hassaku Icon
Hassaku

*sneakily sneaking*

Phew.... I made it this far......

Gannosuke Icon
Gannosuke

The one running this way at a speed that isn't disturbing the other guests is—

Hassaku Icon
Hassaku

Ah, you're Yumenosuke-kun's uncle...!

Gannosuke Icon
Gannosuke

Fancy seeing you here. Are you also on vacation? You seem to be acting different than usual.

Hassaku Icon
Hassaku

I-indeed.... however, I am feeling rather peckish at the moment, so I'm in a hurry right now—

Kodama Icon
Kodama

HHHMMMM. I thought I recognized that back, but it really is you, SHIGEMATSU HASSAKUUUU!!!!!!!

Hassaku Icon
Hassaku

Kh... he noticed it was me?!

Kodama Icon
Kodama

Alright, let us head to the "#BaePlanet" area together!

Hassaku, have you also come to experience the table tennis collaboration with our very own Cutie Cutest Chii?!

Hassaku Icon
Hassaku

I knew you were going to say that which is why I was running....!

I was planning to relax and unwind from my everyday stress in the "Utterly Delightful Adventure" area, and yet.....

Kodama Icon
Kodama

Then wouldn't it be much more effective to do so after a refreshing game of tennis?

Hassaku Icon
Hassaku

Ughhh, I guess that's true.....?

Kodama Icon
Kodama

How about we have your acquaintance here join too?

Gannosuke Icon
Gannosuke

Very well, I shall take you up on that offer.

This was supposed to be a private trip, but I suppose I've come across some unexpected company.

Hassaku Icon
Hassaku

(...I can't believe I've run into such noisy people on my precious day off, but..)

I suppose that this too, is one of the joys of travelling.

Haaah~ Pure bliss.

Well, guess I sound kinda unc saying that. It's crazy that such a nice hot spring resort like this wasn't doing well.

I only came here 'cuz Yodaka-san gave me a discount ticket for a day trip as a work bonus, but....

......

Maybe I should've invited him to join me.1

Waaah, there's sho many people here, it's totes hype~!!

Kuguri Icon
Kuguri

How amazing, nyuszi. You're so happy over someone else's success.

Ten Icon

To be honest, this is way better than I expected. Who would've thought that simply changing it from a "hot spring inn" to "hot spring amusement park" would make that much of a difference?

Ryui Icon
Ryui

Natsuyaki's idea of changing the customers' expectations really hit the mark.

Yodaka Icon
Yodaka

This way, Ejimura-san can freely showcase his sense of style.

Chihiro Icon
Chihiro

Yup, t'was a brilliant idea right ♪ But it only became reality thanks to Yodachasu and everyone's help.

Ryui Icon
Ryui

I still can't stand the fuckass "Ejimura Hot Springs ver 2.0.0" name though.

Yodaka Icon
Yodaka

Fufu, Netaro often says that kind of phrase too, so I suppose that naming sense comes naturally to inventors.

Ejimura Icon
Ejimura

Oya.....?! If it isn't everyone from HAMA Tours!!

Kuguri Icon
Kuguri

Oops, we've been caught.

Chihiro Icon

We didn't want to cause any trouble, sho we decided to drop in all top secret. Tehe *blep*!

Yodaka Icon
Yodaka

Ejimura-san may have been giving us updates, but we were still curious about what it looked like in person.

Ejimura Icon
Ejimura

Thanks to you, the business is booming....! The management style you proposed is working absolutely perfect.

Ryui Icon
Ryui

's nice that you're using that notebook for ideas.

Ten Icon
Ten

The place is properly fulfilling its role as a hot spring inn now, being a relaxation spot and stuff.

Ejimura Icon
Ejimura

Indeed. I'm sure my father is very happy to see this from beyond the grave...!

I cannot than everyone from HAMA Tours enough.........!

Chihiro Icon
Chihiro

Nono, Chii's the one who should be thanking you!

Living at HAMA House brings amazing things everyday—

The fact that we can use bath salts at the group bath is groundbreaking, and I wuv how cute all the room names are!

Chii has always wanted to give you big thanksies for making such a wonderful building~!

Next time, everyone from HAMA Tours will come to visit, 'kay ☆

Ejimura Icon
Ejimura

Thank you very much as well. I'll always look forward to seeing you all again!

  1. There's a bit more nuance to what Yuda says here. 「たまには一緒にどうですか、とか誘ってもよかったのかな。」 If I were to translate it very literally, it'd be "maybe I should've asked him "how about you join me for once?" or even "maybe I should ask him to come with me every once in a while". So /in my interpretation/ he's not only regretting not inviting Yodaka to the springs, but also regretting that he doesn't invite him out more often. I might be cornplating tho #idk
