“It’s been raining in Manila, aren’t you cold?”

*⁠.⁠✧ College AU, based on Lola Amour's song "Raining in Manila." There's this one person who encountered Leo Tsukinaga, the famous musician who studied Visual and Performing Arts, asking if he could borrow an umbrella because of the heavy rain. The more they experience as the rain falls, the deeper their feelings become.

Looking out the window, you stated, "Ah shit, it's raining again." It's been raining for weeks in Manila, and there was one time when it became so cold that you got a fever. You're about to leave the building and get dismissed when all of a sudden you run across the renowned lyricist Leo Tsukinaga. He is well-known for his music and the band Knights. Since he is enrolled in the Visual and Performing Arts course, whose building is on the other side of the campus, you are wondering how he managed to get into your course building. Before he noticed you, he appeared concerned. "Hello, Miss! If I bothered you, I'm sorry. Do you have any extra umbrellas?" Although you are absolutely baffled by the circumstance and how he got here, you just gave him your lone umbrella because it is close to your apartment and the rain is growing heavier. You reached for your umbrella and he said, "I only have this one umbrella, you may borrow it since my apartment is only a short walk away." Given that it's your only umbrella and that it's still raining, he gave you a confused look. “You sure? It's been raining in Manila, aren't you cold?” you gave him a nod as he swiftly took off.

As the day wore on, he was prepared to return your umbrella because he had learned his lesson to always carry one, but then he remembered he had forgotten to ask for your name. Even though he simply asked for your umbrella and forgot to ask for your name, he still remembered your face, which made him feel a little foolish. At first, he didn't notice you and assumed you were just wandering around the campus. He then came back, assuming you were there, but after hearing from one of your classmates that you had a cold, he felt bad because he had thought you might have avoided becoming sick by not taking your umbrella. Leo agreed to treat you once you were feeling better.

You've been feeling better for about a week, but since it's pouring season, the rain hasn't stopped. Time has gone, and soon it will be time for dismissal. Leo waved at you as you were making your way to the building's exit. After the incident where he took your umbrella, it has been a while since you have seen him. “Hi, miss… what’s your name?” He asked while rubbing the back of his neck out of slight embarrassment. You replied, "Y/N, call me Y/N," and then grinned at him. As you noticed his ears becoming red from humiliation, he said, reaching for his backpack and handing you the borrowed umbrella, "I heard a news from your classmate that you caught a cold, I felt guilty about it." "May I treat you outside as a thank you and sorry gift?” he added.

Famitsu has an interview with the Enstars staff members who came up with the idea of Ensemble Training and it has a lot of fun information. Here are some things from the interview summarized:

It was an idea from the lead illustrator and graphic designer who at first talked about a dietary app featuring Knights but it later changed to exercise because they felt diet app was too complex and not easy to add a concept of working together to be more healthy to. The lead illustrator made a proposal of it and found other staff members who were interested in helping her. At some point there was also talk of adding some romancing aspect into the game but that was discarded. (Phew!!)

They talked about it in late 2020 but the work began in March 2022. Originally they wanted to release it with Butou-kai shuffle but it was not ready yet at that point. It also wasn't originally meant as April Fool's content but then they thought it'd get a lot of attention that way. And they were right! They got more downloads than they anticipated when the app launched.

Also, it was kept approachable to everyone not only by keeping it completely free (and it'll stay without any paid content they promised) but also making sure everyone could do the exercises. The staff members who came up with the idea aren't athletic, so they tested the exercises could be done by non-trained people. They had both a professional gym trainer and Enstars staff who did muscle training to help with planning the exercises and programmes.

And lolol, the reason the day in-app changes at 4 am is because many staff members are nightowls so daily reset at 12 midnight felt too tough. Haha, I feel you. (But wait, does that mean some of them are exercising in the middle of the night??)

They had been thinking it's boring and hard to stay motivated to do exercises if you just watch videos or have to go somewhere to exercise. And that you want to be praised and encouraged. So they wrote idols giving you a lot of positive feedback. And that's why for example Izumi who's usually quite rude, sounds kinder in the app. They wanted them to tell you you're doing a good job and give you little cheers during exercises (so no demon instructor Yuzuru dlc, sorry everyone). They also wrote the characters as they would be acting in interviews or promotional settings, so even those who do not normally speak very politely, are using more keigo. Kanata got specially edited lines because he talks so slow haha.

It's so true the idols telling you good job and to keep up helps. <3

Also, they thought that maybe the voice actors would be a little bit confused about suddenly asked to be gym instructors, so they filmed an example video for the VAs to explain/show it since the game animation was still in progress. Awww!

The characters got more lines and animations than they originally planned. At first there was no instructors introducing themselves before exercises but as they created animations and lines for the four trainers (Ibara, Adonis, Izumi and Mitsuru), they thought it'd be fun to see the other characters animated and talking more too. Originally there would've just been the chibi character screen. I'm glad they decided to expand it! They were first warned that they can't have too many special animations but in the end they included all they asked for (for example Ibara's salute). And they put a lot of care into Wataru's ponytail animation!! <3

Such a passion project. I'm glad HappyEle supported their idea and let them make it into a real app. I'm again thinking that HappyEle/Cacalia CEO interview where he said he's letting the employees do what they love and want to do.

i’m so sad man, i just found out about Helios Rising Heroes and i can’t play it!! TvT

the music absolutely slaps. the character design is impeccable. the storyline (from what i can tell so far) is fascinating. maybe i’ll just get to the point with everything about the game (with out the actual physical game) that i can basically tell you all about the stuff in it without the actual game. maybe i’ll do that. at least i have enstars.

May fate bring us together again

Part 2

➻ Synopsis: A couple lived in the middle of a bustling village 2000 years ago. They own a clothing store and have been dubbed a sweet couple by the villagers despite their differences in personalities. Their lives were tragically cut short one day, and the couple died together.

Timeskip , Two people cross paths 2000 years later and feel as if they know each other. That their meeting was not by chance, but due to Fate.

[ Shu Itsuki x Gender Neutral Reader ]

" Thank you; do come again!", waving a goodbye gesture to the day's final customer. Today was a very busy day. After restocking on materials some time ago, the clothing store was overrun with even orders. Shu’s sewing style seems to have attracted loads of people. You close the blinds on the door, indicating that the store has now closed for the day.

" Excellent work today, y/n!" " Mika emerged from the staff room, walking over to the counter to assist you in cleaning up the mess that was present. He gives you light compliments to lift your spirits after you've worked hard all day. His remarks are genuine, and you smile as a result of his generosity. You were about to enter the staff room to work a little more, when you were stopped by Mika, who quickly shielded his body at the door. You were puzzled, and it made you wonder why he would block the door. Mika reasoned that it was extremely messy and that you should not see it in its current state.

“...I work inside there you know ”. You tried forcing your way into the staff room and even arguing with Mika, but nothing worked as he is adamant of not letting you in. You exhaled a deep sigh. You wanted to come inside the room even more, but you've depleted all of your energy from now and while you were working earlier. You recall how exhausting it was to deal with an unpleasant customer in the store; it took you at least one and a half hours to drive the customer away. With Mika refusing to let you into the staff room and your already exhausted state, you instruct Mika to inform Shu that you were going to rest in your bedroom.

" I'll tell Oshi-San when he's free!", he says with a satisfied smile. From your vantage point, it appeared to be a winning smile. You bid him farewell and proceed to the staircase and upstairs, where another floor and your home are located. The building in which you, Mika, and Shu live is two stories tall. The first floor houses the clothing store, while the second floor houses you and two other people. With each person having their own room, you open the door to Shu's room to see if he's inside. Unfortunately, he isn't. It appears that he was still working in the staff room, which Mika did not want you to enter for some reason.

You turn your gaze to his desk, which is littered with crumpled paper and an open sketchbook. As you walk over to the sketchbook to see the illustration, your curiosity grows. You’re drawn to a very well-designed outfit, with so many details that it appears to be fit for royalty. Shu's creativity astounds you; his designs are the best of the best and will never disappoint. If only the public admired his abilities more than his and your relationship status.

A tired yawn escapes your mouth. You were really exhausted, so you left Shu's room and went to your own, where you plopped down in your bed and slowly drifted off to sleep.

>> TIMESKIP…

It was a busy weekend, and you were dressing the empty mannequins that were to be displayed in front of the shop, where the glass is. The clothes were very fascinating to look at. It appears appropriate for the occasion of going to the beach in fashion with its blue and yellow theme. " Shu seems to be experimenting with concept huh ? It’s not all the time I see him making summer clothing," you thought as you buttoned up the outfit on the mannequin. You recall a question you forgot to ask Mika when you mentioned Shu's name. " Hey Mika, where did Shu go today? ”. Shu wasn't anywhere to be found in the morning till afternoon, and when you went to check on him at his room, he wasn't there either. Mika lazily responds that Shu went out with someone who appears wealthy to discuss wedding plans for their daughter. Despite his willingness to accompany him, shu insisted on going alone.

"If you dare to leave this store for even a second while I'm away, I'll restrict you from entering the staff room for a month even if you work with me" . Knowing Shu, his words should not be underestimated…

You laugh and pat his head, attempting to cheer him up. " How about we continue making crochet blankets?. The last time we did one and we gave it to Shu, he wouldn't put it down. And by his actions i am sure he liked it" . It was a simple maroon soft blanket, but your efforts were rewarded as he adored the it. He simply did not show how much he adored it because of his small pride.

His lazy face lights up with excitement, and he walks over to the supply room to get some supplies. You were about to join him when your gaze was drawn to the two gentlemen standing outside the store, staring at you. "Are they customers? But the store is closed every weekend" you thought as you looked away, breaking the awkward stare. The two men also look away and quickly leave their place. Their stares were unsettling. It's as if they're telling you something just by being there. You suddenly get the feeling that you should be on your guard. On guard of what ? You aren’t quite sure. Mika interrupts your train of thought by inviting you to accompany him to the staff room, where you will both be doing crochet work. "Perhaps I'm overthinking things." You've been working nonstop, so your mind is probably just looking for new ways to stress you out.

" coming ! " You raised your voice slightly so that it could be heard from the other room. You walk over to Mika and enjoy each other's company while making another blanket. This time being four times larger than the previous one you both made

///

Mika had fallen asleep a few hours later. He was exhausted from crocheting the blanket. You grab an available blanket and gently wrap it around his shoulders, not wanting to disturb him in his peaceful nap. He definitely looked like a cat taking its daily nap; quite adorable when he sleeps like this. The sun had already set, and shu hasn’t come back yet. You understand the importance of conversing with your clients, but the feeling of missing him completely consumes you. "Has he eaten? Did he bring an umbrella to protect himself from the hot rain? How’s Mademoiselle ? Is he tired?" all questions run through your mind, and you sigh in despair as you lay your head down the table.

The bells attached to the front of the store's front door jingle just as you were thinking about him. You thought Shu had finally returned, so you jumped up from your seat and dashed towards the door. To your dismay, no one is at the front desk. You were certain that someone had entered the shop; perhaps someone was playing a prank on you? If it was a joke, it would be an unfortunate time.

The sounds of wood creaking by the second floor catch you off guard. Someone was undoubtedly home, perhaps it was Shu? You move up to the second floor and open Shu's door slowly.

no one ...

Of course, you were most likely overthinking things again. You grunt in disappointment and prepare to shut the door when your gaze is drawn back to the same illustration in Shu's open sketchbook. This time, however, it is colored and has notes written on its sides. Walking to the sketchbook, the door behind you closes by itself, and your eyes widen when you see his sketchbook. Shu's sketched outfit was colored in light wisteria, the details were drawn more precisely, and a note beside it clearly stated that it was for his "beloved."

“My most recent masterpiece. With plenty of time to plan everything, I've put together the perfect outfit for dearest y/n.“ , is what the note said beside the drawing.

No wonder Shu spent so much time in the staff room, working till midnight, how Mika would frequently refuse to let you enter, and the wisteria colored silk fabric. Everything adds up, and it was because he was working on something special for you.

You can't help but smile as the longing for his presence deepens in your heart.

The bedroom is filled with the echoing "click!" sound of the door latching. You rush to turn the knob, but it has been locked from the outside, which startle you. On the other side of the door, one can hear people arguing. “You moron! Why isn't that Shu with her inside the room?” “I was simply following your lead !! I thought he was inside there !!” Two males, who appeared to be in a heated argument, could be heard. After reaching a decision, they are unable to change their minds, so they start to enclose the door with the cabinet from the outside, preventing the person within the room from leaving. Your adrenaline is pounding as you furiously bang on the door, worrying for Mika's safety. You notice the slight smell of charred wood in an instant, and it makes it difficult for you to breathe normally. It almost feels as though it is suffocating you.

When houses and buildings connected to each other catch fire, the entire community starts to panic. Children and grownups alike hurry outside and panic. You were imprisoned inside the bedroom with no way out because your building was one of many that were on fire and you were trapped

Your body is filled with adrenaline, and you are beginning to feel afraid.

Mika was a little shocked but he remained receptive. A few bystanders had assisted the afflicted locals in leaving the buildings. He answered with a voice that was a little shaken, "i-i am not sure! She's probably still inside." When Shu looks at the burning structure, he starts to perspire. Before leaving Mika and Mademoiselle and entering the house, he shoos Mademoiselle toward Mika and says, "Stay here and do not follow!" Shu certainly heard Mika's worried cries, but at the moment he doesn't have time to reflect on them.

He is suffocated by the smoke, and visibility was poor. His masterpieces were being burned to ashes inside the shop, and all was being destroyed. “ Y/n ! Dear !! “ , he shouted for your name, hoping you will respond amidst the hellish scene. He looked for you everywhere , even if the structure was slowly breaking apart.

Mika was waiting outside with Mademoiselle. Mika was really worried since Shu hadn't emerged even after waiting outside for such a long time. He prayed constantly in the hopes that you two would already come out already. As people begin dousing the fire with water, it slowly goes out. People gradually made their way to the damaged buildings and homes after the flames were extinguished in an effort to find survivors of the catastrophe.

He called out, "Oshi-san! y/n!!" and looked all about. His eyes widened in disbelief at what he had just witnessed. He didn't want to believe it and couldn't believe it. He hugged Mademoiselle tightly as a few tears started to fall from his eyes. He hadn't anticipated that the gods would be so merciless, taking away the lives of the people he loved so dearly. Mika's spirit was torn apart since he had so little left to hope for. Shu and you were holding hands so firmly that he did not want to let go of you even as you were dead. The grip was soft , but it was the last thing you had felt before drifting away from reality

After the tragic incident, the village was never the same. Everyone paid their respects at the couple's gravesite, aware that they were an eccentric yet beautiful couple who had departed away from the land of the living

If i were asked what happened to Mika after the death of our couple , i would say he’d still be living but as time passes by he’d grown more lonely and eventually pass away as his heart couldn’t take you and shu’s death. Poor Mika:’(

Arashi: What a great way to let off steam! Ill reward myself with some serious shopping for all the hard work I did on the weekdays♪

It has already been a long walk picking up what you needed, little Mika. Are you tired? Do you want to sit somewhere?

Mika: Ngahhh~ Not at all. let me help you with those shoppin' bags ya've been carrying this whole time.

Cuz theres still a buncha places on yer list we need to visit~♪

Arashi: Oh my~ How considerate! I almost fell in love with you♪

We havent been able to go out together like this for a long time because of work.

Thank goodness you moved into Seisoukan. Theres no place besides school where we can see eachother if thats the case.

I can not imagine how much I would miss you if you hadnt moved in...

Mika: Uh~ Ah~ Ya can always send me pictures of interestin' stuff goin' on 'round ya. With all of those pictures ya sent me before, I feel like yer always beside me when im not busy at work♪

Arashi: Oh that reminds me. Remember the accessory shop I sent a picture of the other day? That new one on Time Street? That shop is close to where we are now.

Mika: Ah.. I see it! The one in front of us, righ'? Its design kinda reminds me of somethin'...

Arashi: This shop and that boutique downtown are under the same brand; thats why. These shops sell different things, though.

My dream of coming here with you come true, little Mika♪

Mika: Ehhehe~ Ima go anywhere with you, Narruchan~♪

(Inside the shop)

Arashi: Come and look at this, little Mika! These earings suit you so well!

Mika: Hmm~ I think they suit ya aswell. How 'bout we try em' both on?

Arashi: Oh my~ they really do! Only real friends wear matching accessories♪

And look at this ring, too. Its pretty as a pendant on a neclace and just as a regular ring~

Mika: ...

Arashi: Hmm? What are you looking at, little Mika? You look gone.

Arashi: Wow, what a stunning brooch! The metal is carefully hollowed out and captures the lighting of the butterfly's wings perfectly, and its embellished with sparkling jewels. What a cute yet gorgeous design♪

Mika: I agree~ Whats on the information card beside it?

Arashi: Hmm. Its on display but not for sale... The shop owner found this piece at a fair overseas, and its hard to tell who made it.

Mika: Ngahh~.... I thought it matches ya and wanted to buy it as a gift for ya....

Arashi: Oh, please dont be sad. I appreciate the thought♪

And look, it says we can photos of it! As long as we take a picture, its beauty can stay with us.

We cant have every pretty thing in the world to ourselves, right? The important thing is that we take pleasure in appreciating beauty.

Mika: Is... Is taking a picture really enough?

Arashi: All right, it would be a waste of time if we stayed in the same shop all day. Lets check out somehwere else♪

(Some time later, at sunset)

Arashi: I can always find something new and interesting with you by my side. Even in places ive already visited, little Mika♪

Mika: And ya always make me happy~♪

I maself forgot that I told ya that I was out of sweets. That candy store was great!

Yer so kind to have kept in mind everything ive said, Narruchan...♪

Arashi: Hehehe... Because we are best friends. Friends care about each other.

Oops! I almost forgot!

Mika: ...?

Arashi: How can I not take any pictures with ym best friend now that we are finally hanging out with eachother? Lets quickly take a couple and post them~♪

Hmm? How come my battery died? Did I forget to charge my phone before going out?

Mika: Oh.. How 'bout ya take some with ma phone instead? I can send 'em on Hold-hands later.

Arashi: Of course, good idea♪ Now then, Im sure well make perfect snapshots with my experience on photobooths...

Follow me, little Mika! Look at the camera! 3...2...1~

Mika: Eh, p-please gimms more time to prepare!

Arashi & Mika: ♪~

✩~

Translater note: (Later on, Near Night?)

Mika: (Ehehehe, Im so glad that I got more chances to hang out with Narruchan after I moved to Seisoukan♪)

(Lemme check todays picture... Narruchan is real good with a camera♪)

(..Ngah? This picture is blurry. I cant really see our faces in it.)

(Guess I accidently put ma hand too close to the camera while posin', so our faces went out of focus)

(Ima send the other pictures to Narruchan)

(But what should I do about this blurry one? Hmm... I kinda dont want to delete it)

(Its this bad habit of mine again. Ma room is gradually filled with things I dont want to throw away)

(Uh- ahh... The photo before this one is of the brooch. It suits Narruchan so well no matter how I see it. I can already picture Narruchan wearing it)

(Narruchan loved it so much too.... But said this and that to make sure I didnt worry 'bout it much)

(But thats the exact reason why I want to Narruchan as a gift! I hafta' do somethin' since Narruchan helped me pick all those outfit materials I needed..)

(-Righ! A shop we went to sells materials you need to make accessories.)

(Uhm-Hmm.. lemme re-create that brooch perfectly to give to Narruchan as a suprise~♪)
