-Cover-

Akayuki¡¯s notes:
Omote ¨C Book Cover. As usual, a play of words here in ¡°Omote¡± and ¡°Otome¡±, the cover has ShizNat from Mai HiME but the story¡¯s in the Mai Otome Universe setting.
¡®A Chaotic Copy Book¡¯ ¨C I¡¯m not sure about this sentence here.

*Shizu Natsu Only Book*

*Omote Unlabelled . An Otome Inside.*

Shizuru: Well then, Natsuki and Mai-san.
--- I¡¯ll see you at noon break.

Mai: Yes, see you later, Shizuru-san!!

Natsuki: ¡­ Please excuse us, Onee-sama.

Mai: However ¡­ as I thought, Shizuru-san is a really charismatic woman huh.
--- @Let¡¯s not talk about what her true character is (laughs).@

-Dazed

Natsuki: Aah ¡­

Mai: A feminine appearance with a touch of elegance and that streamline and mature figure?
--- @How nice~@

Natsuki: But ¡­looks can be deceiving.

-Continues

Natsuki: Her abdominal muscles are reasonably well proportioned.
--- @And her gripping power is inexplicably strong ¡­¡­@

*A vision that is saying ¡®Oh~ you know quite a lot, don¡¯t you?¡¯ (star).*

-Smirks.

Natsuki: Aah,
--- N-no ¡­

-Pats

Natsuki: Just that ¡­
--- I saw it when I was w-washing her back ¡­

*After all, you¡¯re in charge of cleaning her room hm~ (heart).*

Akayuki¡¯s notes:
Somersault Cloud ¨C ¡¯½î¶·ë…¡¯ [Kintoun] is a skill which enables Sun Wukong in the novel ¡®Journey to the West¡¯ to travel vast distance in a single leap.

Shizuru: @What is this?@

Natsuki: @Can a person sit on it?@

Youko: I casually tried making a ¡®Somersault Cloud¡¯~ (heart).
--- @It¡¯s a prototype.@

Shizuru: @To sit on it together with Natsuki ¡­@
--- @Haa Haa@

Natsuki: @Ooh!@
--- @It¡¯s amazing.@
--- @How exciting.@

-Poof

Youko: Ah.
--- I¡¯ve forgotten to mention something.

-Drop
Youko: As a matter of fact,
--- Only those people who have ¡®Unadulterated mindsets¡¯ are able to sit on it, please be careful ¡­¡­

Arika: Waa!!
--- What is this!!

-Step

*I like this kind of Purple person the most.*

Akayuki¡¯s notes:
'¥¸¥Ñ¥ó¥°', [Zipangu], Zipang, is actually a name of a country in the Mai Otome world and Tokiha Mai is from Zipang.

Natsuki: Excuse me, Shizuru---
--- Looks like there¡¯s no more soap left.
--- Do we have any stock left?

-Drip drip

-Creak

*Purple mind*

Shizuru: --- Eh?
--- @Ara, nice view (heart).@

Shizuru: I forgot to replenish, what should I do ¡­

Shizuru: @Ah@
--- How about this, try this out then.

-Rustle

Natsuki: What is that?

Shizuru: Mai-san gave it to me just now.
--- She said it¡¯s a souvenir from Zipang.
--- @Seems like it¡¯s called a ¡®Year-End Gift¡¯.@
--- @Here.@

Natsuki: ?
--- From Mai?

Akayuki¡¯s notes:
'¥Ë¥ª¥¤¥¹¥ß¥ì', [„ö¤¤Çž/Nioi Sumire], Viola Odorata is a species of the genus Viola and it is also commonly known as Sweet Violet.

Natsuki: ¡­ Somehow the colour of this soap looks amazing.
--- @Deep purple.@

-Rub

Natsuki: It smells really good though.

Shizuru: The people there called it ¡®Nioi Sumire¡¯ in their dialect which means fragrant flower.

Natsuki: ¡®Nioi Sumire¡¯?

Shizuru: Yes.

Shizuru: The main point is that ¡­
--- the flowering term is ---

-Step

Shizuru: ¡®Viola¡¯.
--- The meanings are the same for both names.

-Slip

Shizuru: @It¡¯s useless ¡­@
--- @I can¡¯t hold on any longer.@

Akayuki¡¯s notes:
Baka ¨C Stupid/Idiot.
Chu ¨C Kiss.
¡°Your (You) body and heart will be dyed in the smell and (colour) of Viola, Yo!!¡± ¨C A play of words in the word ¡®É«¡¯ (colour), it could mean ¡®É«¡¯ as in colour or ¡®É«¡¯ as in lust so Shizuru¡¯s picking on Mai saying thumbs up on Natsuki been drenched in the smell and lust of Viola (Shizuru) LOL.

Natsuki: W-wait ¡­
--- Baka ¡­

-Nchu--- (heart)

Natsuki: Your clothes will get wet--- ¡­

Shizuru: It doesn¡¯t matter~

Shizuru: By the way,
--- on Mai-san¡¯s card.

*Your (You) body and heart will be
--- dyed in the smell and (colour) of Viola, Yo!!*

Shizuru: That¡¯s what she wrote (heart).

Natsuki: ¡­ Looks like I¡¯ve got to have a little chat with her on where to draw the line.
--- @For the sake of my waist.@

Natsuki: But, to use this to wash my body,
--- feels like it will really dye me in purple colour.
--- @In any meanings of ¡®colour¡¯¡­@

Shizuru: That sounds good ¡­

Shizuru: But, is it no good by adding me into the equation?

-Chu

Natsuki: It¡¯s not that ¡­ that it¡¯s not good.
@It¡¯s not good for you to wait for me in your drenched clothes, you will feel uncomfortable too, right.@

Shizuru: Well then, let me help you wash every single part of your body (heart).
@I will definitely dye you beautifully!!@

Natsuki: ¡­ I knew you would say that ¡­

Akayuki¡¯s notes:
Nekokami Yama ¨C [Cat God Mountain] A location in Mai Otome Universe, used to be Black Valley but was renamed in Mai Otome Zwei.

Natsuki: Um ¡­
--- I can help you wash your back too?

Natsuki: It¡¯s been a while ¡­

*Which reminds me*

Shizuru: @Fufu@
--- It feels like we¡¯re back in our school days (heart).

Natsuki: ¡­Your expression is slacking too much, Shizuru.

Shizuru: Ara, you¡¯re not calling me ¡®Onee-sama¡¯?
--- Na-tsu-ki-sa-n.

Natsuki: Yes, yes.
--- Onee-sama, Onee-sama.

*It was said that the sense of smell
--- has a direct link with a person¡¯s memory.*

-Clang

-Splash ¡­

*Everything flowed as per to Mai¡¯s expectations.*

*Honestly speaking, it¡¯s not amusing at all.*

Natsuki: Probably¡­from now onwards
--- whenever I catch a whiff of this fragrance.

Shizuru: @Natsuki and I smell so good--- (heart)@

Natsuki: I will remember all of ¡­
--- this.
--- @Like this kind of situation or the other kind.@

@In high-spirits.@

*Meanwhile at Nekokami Yama*

Mai: ¡­ If I call this ¡®Viola Soap¡¯ I wonder if I can sell it to the fans of Shizuru-san.
--- @This.@

Mai: @Maybe I should try selling it in the black market first.@

*Such strong commercial spirit!@

I don¡¯t know what possessed me, many things happened during December and I can¡¯t seem to accomplish anything ¡­ I have no idea why it then became this kind of book, for that, I¡¯m sorry. The copy for Summer Comi is also not the complete version ¡­ I will think of a solution in the next year (sweats). Can¡¯t get myself to do up a book with solid contents, it is also due to me being in the slumps ¡­ (Cries). To all who have been patiently waiting (If there are any), I¡¯m really sorry. (Panda Crying) Uwawa ¡­again and again. Just to let you know, I still like ShizNatsu a lot ¡­ T-then why am I sketching Yomi!? This season, I was hooked by Ga-Rei -Zero- (Bitter Laughter) ... I-I will be better in the next year!!

I wish everyone a happy new year~~~

-END of Script-

Well, many things are on my mind right now ... but I've got to relax once in a while ... sometimes I wish I had returned back faster or in June, perhaps this matter could had been avoided or ... lessen. Oh well.
