Chapter 1 - What kind of costume do you want to wear?

== Hanasakigawa girls' High school - 2-A classroom ==

Saaya : So, how is it? Have everyone decided on what to wear?
Kasumi : Hmmm~~, I haven't~. There are just so many options, I don't know what to pick.
Rimi : When I search it on my smartphone, there are this many option that comes out...
Tae : This zombie costume is really awesome. It is just like something that you will see in a movie.
Saaya : But, there's no way that we could make something like that~. Even though it'll be really cool if we could make something that looks that real.
Arisa : We don't have the time and budget to make it. Also, we must not forget that we still need to prepare for our Live next month.
Saaya : By the way Arisa, have you already decided on what to wear?
Arisa : I- I don't really care about that... I'll just leave it all to you guys.
Kasumi : Then. how about this fluffy mascot costume~? It's not that hard to prepare, we could buy it in any place that sells party goods! What do you think, Arisa? Let's have a matching costume!
Arisa : But, you see? That costume looks really cute, but it doesn't really have anything to do with Halloween, right?
Kasumi : I see~, you're right. Then, how about this Dracula costume?
Arisa : Hmm~, That's also kind of wrong~. If we dress like that, then what's the difference with just wearing a tuxedo---
Saaya : Arisa... You're actually really excited about this event, don't you.
Arisa : No, I'm not!
Arisa : Also, Halloween is not just an [event where we wear a costume].
Kasumi : I know that already--. It's actually like this, right? You need to wear a youkai costume... right? [Tl notes : Youkai mean Ghost/Monster/Etc]
Arisa : That answer is just worth [50 points].
Rimi : Ummm, At first, Halloween was held so that we could pray to our ancestors.
Rimi : But at that time, there will also be many evil spirits that roam in this world, so we need to wear a youkai costume to mingle with them, so they don't do anything bad to us.
Saaya : Hee~, I see. So it's that kind of event. You really know a lot of things, Rimirin.
Rimi : There are so many Halloween-themed horror movies out there. So it's only natural that I know about that.
Rimi : How about... we watch that kind of movie together?
Kasumi : Y...Yes. That seems.... fun.
Arisa : You don't need to force yourself, you know?
Kasumi : I- It's not like that~.
Rimi : I'm sorry Kasumi-chan. I'm just joking.
Saaya : Fufufu. Well, let's save that talk for later. Now,  how about we decide on what costume we're gonna wear?
Rimi : Ummm, I know that this kind of thing will happen, so I bring this.
Kasumi : Eh? What? What did you bring~!
Rimi : This...
Saaya :[World of youkai - Youkai encyclopedia]...?? The picture on the cover looks really intimidating, they look so realistic.
Arisa : I don't think we could find something cute in there.
Rimi : Y- You're right! Let's just forget about this...
Arisa : Ah, That's not what I mean!
Kasumi : I want to see that book! We haven't decided on anything yet, so I think we could find some inspiration if we look at this encyclopedia!
Tae : Let's see it together!
Kasumi : Ah! What is this? She's wearing cute clothes.
Rimi : Ah, You mean this? This one called Jiang shi. It's from Chinese, and it's just like a zombie.
Kasumi : I want to become her! She's cuter than a zombie.
Tae : What is this? This girl that have so many snakes in her head.
Rimi : Ah, That is---

== 30 minutes later ==

Kasumi : Haaa~, That was interesting! I never know that there's actually that many youkai in this world~. But as expected, I want to try becoming that Jiang shi.
Saaya : Her costume is cute, and it would probably suit you, Kasumi? As for me, it's either a witch or a vampire...which should I pick?
Rimi : have you decided on what do you want to be, Arisa-chan?
Arisa : Hmm~, I haven't... I'm still thinking about it. What about you Rimi?
Rimi : Me too. It's a rare occasion, so I want to think about it more carefully. What about you Otae-chan?
Tae : Hmm~... Can I see that encyclopedia one more time?
Rimi : Of course. Here...
Tae : Let's see... This one is like this... Ah, I see. If I do this, then~... Okay, I have decided!
Tae : I'm going to become a rabbit.
Arisa : What's the point of looking at the encyclopedia then!
