That the "let's try to cheer Kohran up" sequence was almost a copy of the "let's try to cheer Iris up" from earlier really worries me. Half of Tokyo exploded after that incident. How many will die this time? When will the Hive of Darkness stop this villany? (Also that cake song was just  )

Yeah, in this case I think the game as written was as good as anything Spirit Armor could come up with on his own. Kanna is awesome. Maria... is learning the limits of her experience. Seriously though, man, you'd better get back down to the hangar before this whole early morning Benny Hill is over. Bring a firehose.

Kasumi: The performance was so good! The same-day tickets were sold out... It was standing room only! Kanna: Hey, thanks! Tsubaki: U-um! Maria-san! Here is some sake for you! Maria: Thank you... Tsubaki: "Andre-sama... Andre-sama! Andre-sama! I beg of you, Andre-sama!" [Andre is Maria's character in the current production, Shin Ai Yue ni, an epic romance set during the French Revolution.] Maria: C-Clementine?  [Clementine would be Andre's love interest.] Tsubaki: Just hold me tight... Maria: I'll never let you go... Tsubaki: And say that you love me... Maria: I'll say that I love you... Yuri: Ahhh! Stop, stop! We're so very sorry! Kasumi: [My Japanese comprehension skills failed here, but she's explaining that Tsubaki has been wanting to try something like this just once.] Maria: Is that right? Thank you, Tsubaki. This is just the sort of diversion...that I love. Tsubaki: L-love?! Maria: Is she all right? Sumire: Honestly, there's no helping it, is there. Kanna: Here you go. Sumire: And what is this? Kanna: Some pickled ginger. Sumire: What? Kanna: No, see, there is a helping... of pickled ginger!  [The original pun was on the phrase "shou ga nai" (nothing can be done about it) and "shouga aru" (there is pickled ginger).] Sumire: ....imbecile. Kanna: Imbecile, she says! Yuri: Come on, let's go. Tsubaki: Now I can die happy¨—! Ah! Maria-san! Here! Maria: Thanks— Tsubaki: Ahh! Ack, nosebleed...

Iris would insist that someone else should do it, probably threatening to cry. Kohran would try to make a device to do it for her that would inevitably explode. Maria would be puzzled that this is a problem that could be solved neither through angst nor shooting. Sumire would choose someone else to "delegate" it to.

Last time, on SAKURA WARS! Having abandoned Maria to her grisly, possibly too-hot-to-be-broadcast-on-television fate, Ogami sprints to the courtyard to see if he couldn't possibly get a better view of the proceedings!  Of course, he didn't count on running into Kanna.  ... 's outstretched fist. [Ogami]  Oh, Kanna. You're really into that fighting spirit today, aren't you.  ---- [Ogami]  What!? Every time I do, I break bones that I-- [Kanna]  Aah? [Ogami]  -- YOU break bones that I never even knew I had! Besides, Maria's presently getting somethinged by Tsubaki! Why in the world would I want to spar with you again? [Kanna]  Weeeell, first off, Maria's fine, she's got an anti-rape goblin protectin' her. Secondly-- [Ogami] You, uh, you lost me at 'firstly,' what-- [Kanna] Her gun, silly. Now where was I-- right, secondly, I'm the main reason why Sakura's willing to talk to you and not shank you on sight, so I think you owe me somethin'. [Ogami] Well, I, uh. Couldn't you let me pay some other way? Gimme a break here! [Kanna] Sure. Arm or leg? ---- [Ogami] Alright, let's do it! And from the way things are turning out, Ogami's going to be running into Kanna's outstretched fist repeatedly.  Hey, that doesn't sound too bad. Granted, I'm kind of miffed that she didn't ever ask whether Ogami wanted to be on O or D in any of the PREVIOUS training sessions, but I'll take what I can get-- the fewer broken bones, the better. [Ogami]  Right, here I go!  ---- [Kanna]  I gotta say, Captain, you've got the drat weirdest way of charging up chi I've seen in a long time. [Ogami]  It, it just works for me, alright? [Kanna] It just looks like a steam-powered game pad to me, that's all I'm saying. ---- [Ogami] How's this!  ... she says, catching it in her fist.  Guess we gotta try harder? [Ogami]  Daryaah! [Kanna]  Not bad, Captain! Let's see the next one!! ---- [Kanna] C'mon, gimme more! MORE!! [Ogami] K-Kanna? [Kanna] MOOOOORE!! [Ogami] A-alright, who am I to get between a junkie and her entire reason for living? ----  [Ogami] Deyaaah! [Kanna] Whoop, that was dangerous... heheh! This's really heatin' up!! You ain't seen nothing yet! How about--  SEVEN BUTTONS. [Ogami]  Let's go! [Kanna] Whoa whoa... crap! [Ogami] Kanna's legs are wide open! Now's my chance to attack!! Here...  [Ogami] Got you! Deryaaaaah!! [Kanna]  Ch', not bad, Captain. I'll make use of that strength, Captain... here we go, Super Rinpai!! ---- [Ogami]  HEY WAIT you never said anything about YOU attacking!? [Kanna] You never told ME you were gonna whip out SEVEN buttons! And you even trained up an awesome battle cry!! [Ogami] Wha-- you're supposed to TRAIN battle cries? [Kanna] Less talk more gratuitous one-sided violence! ---- [Ogami] Here it comes! You've got a split-second to guard yourself as best you can...  But lo and behold, Ogami puts up a drat good defense!  WHUD. [Ogami] Great! I've stopped it perfectly!! ---- [Ogami] All those weeks of getting hit by trains as practice finally paid off!! [Kanna] C'mon, Captain, are you serious? Just trains? [Ogami] Yeah, I know, I couldn't find anything that packed more punch. ----  [Ogami] No no no... Kanna, your Super Rinpai was extremely good, too.  [Ogami] Aah, by all means. And with multiple final attacks under his belt, Ogami will be unstoppable.  ----  Ogami was mildly surprised when that slipped out of his mouth (the first bit, not the part about going somewhere else). He honestly DID enjoy sparring with Kanna, and not just because it kept his blood pumping, his adrenaline running, and his sense of danger finely honed!  ... sonnuvabitch, not her too. The theater can't handle two moping pilots at once.  ----  [Ogami]  Iris... are you awake yet? Saying things like "Gee, I wonder if she's awake HEY ARE YOU AWAKE IN THERE I WONDER?" is kind of a self-fulfilling statement there, Ogami.   Hi ho, into the lion's den once again. What horrors await--  [Iris]  I want everyone... to be... together... [Ogami] Iris... is she crying in her sleep...? Fine, fine, this isn't so much horrific as it is kind of awkward. I mean, how does one respond to something as heartrending as--  -- wh-- ...  The sheer incomprehensibility of the third choice and everything that it implies about the nature of the game, the game developers, and the target audience broke my mind and stalled my hand.  [Iris] Sniff... [Ogami] Iris... I'm sorry. We've made you worry, haven't we. If I'd... done a better job... Spirit Armor fucked around with this message at 02:51 on Mar 22, 2013 |

 ---- [Ogami] Well, that's good to-- [Ogami] Wha-- what do you mean, "just"? Which parts of this was MY fault!? [Iris]  Well, you're a dick, Oniichan! [Ogami] Iris, this isn't the time to be adorably adopting mannerisms from the adults around you, this is the time to help soothe my shattered ego. [Iris] I coul-- [Ogami] No double entendres or euphemisms or misinterpreting that in any way. [Iris]  Not even-- [Ogami] NO. ---- [Iris] I mean, Iris... made trouble for Kohran too... [Ogami] Iris... you were awake? [Iris] No... it was because I heard Oniichan's voice...  Okay, I'll admit, I kind of awwwww'd. [Ogami] Thank you... Iris.  ... which kind of shriveled up and died away in the face of unnecessary and nauseatingly semi-demi-romantic undertones between a prepubescent girl and some dude twice her age.  [Ogami] ... she fell asleep, huh. But this time, she's smiling in her sleep. Good night... Iris. Pleasant dreams.  We all know what's in the salon!  YES! IT'S ACTUALLY SUMIRE. ... and she's yawning. [Ogami] H-Hi... Sumire-kun. You look sleepy.  [Ogami] Sorry... I wasn't meaning to see it, but...  I suppose watching people yawn is considered horrifically impolite. [Ogami] Sumire-kun...  ... once again, the third option reveals more about the state of Ogami's mind than I could ever want to know.  Rule of thumb when facing Sumire: if none of the choices look at all intelligent, chances are you're not supposed to answer. [Ogami] ........  [Ogami] Ahahahahaha... And thus began the most asinine conversation you'll ever see in the entire game.  [Ogami] No... [Sumire]  Any concern about me is... unnecessary. [Ogami] I see...  [Ogami] Thank you... but the Manager has called for me, so... [Sumire] I see... well, perhaps next time. [Ogami] Right then... I'll be going now. [Sumire] Okay... After all this time, the one chance we get to see Sumire actually sitting in the salon-- THE PLACE WHERE GOD INTENDED HER TO BE SITTING-- just so happens to be ridiculously awkward.   Anyways, kitchen.  ----  ---- [Ogami]  ... are you still sore about that whole shirtless thing back there? [Sakura]  Yes, Mr. Sexual Offender. [Ogami] Didn't they clear things up? [Sakura]  Kasumi told me that all men become animals who feast upon the succulent flesh of young women and pilfer their virgin oil once they are of the age of consent and are married. [Ogami] ... and what did Kanna say? [Sakura] That it all works out in the end because all girls have an anti-surprise-sex goblin that lives in their thingamajiggies, donchaknow, with razor sharp teeth and a red-hot poker. [Ogami] ... chrissakes. When Iris gets older, I'm not letting anyone other than Ayame-san give her The Talk. ---- [Ogami] Was it your turn to make breakfast today, Sakura-kun...?  [Ogami] Ah, I see... ---- [Ogami] SO THAT'S WHY SHE LOCKED HERSELF IN HER KOUBU! [Sakura] I don't think so, Ogami-san. [Ogami] ... it's really the most that any of us could hope for at this point. ---- [Sakura] Kohran's probably pretty hungry, so... I wanted to make something she likes, but.  [Sakura] Because she never says if she likes or dislikes anything, and she always eats it all without leaving anything behind...  [Ogami] Let's see...  Not hot-blooded enough.  YES. [Ogami] ... cooking is an expression of love. Whatever kind of food you make, as long as you put your heart into it, it'll be fine. Not literally, of course.  [Sakura]  As long as I put my heart into it, I'll be able to cook something that will make her happy!  ---- [Sakura]  You AREN'T going to take off your shirt and do indecent things in my general direction at the slightest provocation, right? [Ogami] ... what the hell do you think I -am-? [Sakura] Someone whose body moved on its own towards the bath about five or six times? [Ogami] Other than that. OTHER than that. ---- [Ogami] It looks like you understand... that love is the true essence of cooking. Naval Officer. Master Cook. Martial Artist. Mecha Pilot. Piano and Cello Player. Master Waxer. What CAN'T Ogami do?  [Ogami] Aah, do your best. I'll... think of something for Kohran, too.  [Sakura] And I'm worried about Kohran, but it seems like it'll be better to leave it to you, Ogami-san... Oh c'mon, not you too!? Why is Ogami always the dump stat around here?  [Ogami] ... I got it. Seeya, Sakura-kun.  ----  Thankfully, it's right next door.

I love how the additions play in here.  First there's Ogami's excuse to be in the courtyard, and then his "epiphany" on Kohran's reasoning.It's almost an MST3King of the story, but it flows with the original better.
