Oop—! Hey, you—! Yeah, you, the person who looked away the moment they saw me!

Mhm, that’s right. I’m pretty sure you were… Akehoshi’s classmate, right…?

I am Morisawa Chiaki! The very same as the leader-of-RYUSEITAI and captain-of-the-basketball-team Morisawa Chiaki!

I already introduced myself? But this is important, so I did it twice so you wouldn’t forget who I was.

And with an impression like that, you definitely shouldn’t be able to forget who I am now!

… Mhm, that’s a good question!

Why am I wearing my idol uniform so early in the morning? That’s because I have basketball practice soon!

As I just said, I’m the captain of the basketball team.

But I’m not too good with mornings. Even this burning heart gets completely bummed out at such an hour.

Still, that just won’t do! I can’t just run away from something just because I’m bad at it. And that’s exactly why I’m wearing this outfit!

I can tell by the face you’re making you don’t really get it.

I guess the fact I can’t make you understand despite all the passion I’m gushing out means I’ve still got a long way to go, huh?

Well then, let me explain! What color is this outfit?

… Red. Mhm, a very passionate red! And the leader of a hero squadron? What color do they wear?

That’s right, they also wear red! Whenever I wear the color red, my heart blazes a burning bright red too.

And so, that’s why I wear this outfit during morning practice.

You understand now, Transfer Student? (Pets her head) Good, good, you’re such a good kid.

And here’s a handshake for such a good kid ♪

Oo-p, why’d you just move away from me? Is it that you don’t admire sentai heroes?

I do! There’s no boy out there whose eyes don’t sparkle when they see a hero running around taking down enemies!

Wait, well you are a girl, so… it’s probably natural that you can’t understand then.

Still, it isn’t unwise to remember this: men admire heroes.

And when you get to shake hands with someone you admire, it makes you feel like you’re a hero too.

Come now, shake my hand so you know what it’s like to feel like a hero too!

… You’ll pass? You’re not a very greedy person, hm? Well, that’s still fine.

— Is it already this late? I hate to leave, but I’ve got to go. Take care until the next time we meet, Transfer Student!
