Gang Bylaws
Quest DescriptionHaving heard that Shinobu is about to implement some special Gang Bylaws, Mamoru and the others flee as quickly as they can...
- (Upon reaching the location)
- Kuki Shinobu: Hmm? That's the owner of Aisa Bathhouse. What's he looking at?
- (Aikawa Susumu Idle line)
- Aikawa Susumu: What was that...?
- (Talk to Matsumoto)
- Matsumoto: Did I see anyone come by this way? Sorry, I was concentrating on my lemon water tasting...
- Matsumoto: Your best bet would probably be to ask someone at the bathhouse across the road.
- (Talk to Aikawa Susumu)
- Aikawa Susumu: I was just doing some cleaning when I suddenly heard a loud noise outside.
- Aikawa Susumu: I got to the door just in time to see a shadowy figure disappear up that tree!
- Aikawa Susumu: This is a busy street... Surely it wouldn't be a burglar, would it...?
- (Mamoru idle line)
- Mamoru: Please don't see me, please don't see me...
- (Talk to Mamoru)
- Kuki Shinobu: Come on, get up. What are you crouching there for?
- Mamoru: Eek! ...Shinobu, what are you doing up here...?
- Aikawa Susumu: Hey! What do you think you're doing, climbing up on someone else's roof?
- Kuki Shinobu: Oh... Sorry, coming down.
- Aikawa Susumu: *sigh* If you're gonna horse around, fine — but you have to know when to rein it in, okay?
- Aikawa Susumu: It's darn lucky that you didn't break any roof tiles. Otherwise, I'd have to close the place down while I get it fixed...
- Mamoru: S—Sorry!
- Kuki Shinobu: We're very sorry. I will be much stricter with him in the future.
- Kuki Shinobu: If, on closer inspection, you do find any damage, please come to Hanamizaka and ask for me. The Arataki Gang will bear the cost of repairs.
- Aikawa Susumu: It's okay, all's well that ends well. It's just, if you carry on like this, causing mischief day after day, night after night... Sooner or later, accidents are gonna happen.
- Aikawa Susumu: I can see that you're a reasonable person. For your own sake, find a way to keep your subordinates in line.
- Kuki Shinobu: I will. Thank you for understanding.
- Kuki Shinobu: For the sake of both the Arataki Gang and the community, I will get them to start behaving themselves as a matter of urgency.
- Mamoru: Uh, hehe, we'll do better, we promise!
- Kuki Shinobu: Listen carefully. From now on, you must strictly abide by the Gang Bylaws of the Arataki Gang.
- Kuki Shinobu: Gang Bylaws, Article 1: Do not damage other people's property.
- Kuki Shinobu: In case of violation, the member shall compensate the victim for their full losses, including the cost of repairs, lost business hours, and — depending on the situation — compensation for emotional distress.
- Kuki Shinobu: If the offending member cannot immediately afford to pay the compensation, the Arataki Gang will extend to the member a loan for the full sum, on the condition that they take on paid employment and repay the loan within an agreed time period. Including interest, of course.
- Kuki Shinobu: As a further security, all of the offending member's gang assets, including Onikabuto and Genius Invokation TCG cards, will be frozen until the loan is repaid in full...
- Mamoru: No... No! I'm sorry, I get it now, I promise!
- Kuki Shinobu: Good — then no more violations in the future. Now, where are Genta and Akira?
- Mamoru: Uh... Boss said that a fellow gang member is a brother from another mother, and we should never betray the brotherly bond...
- Kuki Shinobu: If they've violated the Gang Bylaws and you're withholding knowledge of their whereabouts, you'll be punished as an accomplice along with them.
- Mamoru: Hanamizaka, they went to Hanamizaka! I saw with my own eyes!
- Kuki Shinobu: Let's go, (Traveler). I hope they haven't caused any trouble.
- (After finding Mamoru)
- Mamoru: Shinobu, you can see I've learned my lesson for real this time. So maybe...
- Kuki Shinobu: Shut up and get a move on. If you try and run away again, you'll only have yourself to blame for the consequences.
- (Souta idle line)
- Souta: What are we gonna do...
- (Talk to the children)
- Souta: What are we gonna do? Do we really have to give up on playing Genius Invokation today?
- Eita: We could try playing somewhere else. But where else apart from under the bridge can we escape from the grown-ups?
- Souta: Oh, I know! We can get Yoimiya to set off some fireworks and scare off the guy that took our spot!
- Eita: That's kinda mean... Although, he kicked us out first...
- Souta: Yeah, so it's his own fault!
- Yuma: I think... maybe we should just go home and do our homework?
- Yuma: People who spend all their time playing and never studying turn into the kind of grown-ups who hang out under brigdes, too...
- (Genta; idle line)
- Genta: Please don't see me, please don't see me...
- (Talk to Genta)
- Kuki Shinobu: Why are you still hiding here? Come on out.
- Genta: Oh, uh... I... Shinobu...
- Souta: Whoa! The guy who stole our spot, he came out!
- Kuki Shinobu: Ugh... Sorry, we're coming up.
- Genta: ...I'm sorry! I shouldn't have stolen your spot! Well, at least, not without a fair fight first...
- Genta: Um, l—lemme make it up to you! As punishment, I'll play a game of Genius Invokation with you...
- Mamoru: Huh? Cool, count me in! In the Arataki Gang, the victor shares the spoils... No, wait — brothers share our burdens! So, uh, punish us together!
- Souta: Ummm... I dunno, maybe not...
- Eita: It's so noisy over here, the grown-ups will definitely find us...
- Eita: If they find out that we came out to play cards before finishing our homework, we'll never be allowed to play again.
These kids have more self-control than some people...- Unlike some people, these kids know when enough is enough...
- Yuma: Besides, if we never do our homework and play Genius Invokation all the time...
- Yuma: ...We'll probably turn into big losers when we grow up.
- Souta: Huh? Seriously? You mean like... this guy!?
- Eita: Oh brother — quick, let's get back and do our homework!
- Genta: Hey, you little rascals!
- Kuki Shinobu: Stop. Leave them alone, they're just kids.
- Kuki Shinobu: Gang Bylaws, Article 2: No bullying of small children.
- Genta: Bylaws? What are they?
- Mamoru: Never mind that, just listen!
- Kuki Shinobu: ...Violators must give a sincere and unreserved apology to the victim and make amends.
- Kuki Shinobu: Until such a time as the victim forgives the violator, they will be banned from participating in all gang activities, including Lavender Melon roasting sessions, The Great Singalong, Onikabuto battles... and Genius Invokation TCG.
- Genta: Nooooo!
- Kuki Shinobu: Don't pretend to be the victim here. Tell me, where is Akira?
- Genta: Uhh... B—Boss said that homies are family, and family don't rat each other out... especially not to Shinobu...
- Kuki Shinobu: Go on?
- Genta: He was heading out of the city! I saw it with my own eyes!
- Why do I get the feeling this happens all the time...
- Genta: When Shinobu gives me the look, I react automatically, I can't control it...
- Mamoru: Ahem! As members of the Arataki Gang, we brothers share our burdens! If that means getting taught a lesson, then we take it as a team!
- Kuki Shinobu: Out of the city? A Doushin from the Police Station told me that things have been getting pretty rough out there recently...
- Kuki Shinobu: Let's go, (Traveler). Hopefully we can catch up with him.
- (After finding Genta)
- Genta: Hey, uh, how did Shinobu find me so quickly? Mamoru... did you—
- Mamoru: Aw geez, I'm just so worried about Akira, you know? He could be in real trouble! Quick, we gotta catch up with him!
- (Approach the location)
- Mamoru: *panting* I swear I've never known Akira to run so fast before...
- Genta: I can't keep going... I think I'm actually gonna die... Phew...
- Kuki Shinobu: ...
- Is something on your mind?
- Kuki Shinobu: I heard from the Police Station about a group of Kairagi on the prowl outside the city...
- He'd still have to be very unlucky...
- The odds of Akira running into them are pretty low.
- Kuki Shinobu: ...Ugh, well anyway, the best we can do is find him as soon as possible.
- Kuki Shinobu: There's a lot of terrain to cover here. I think we might have to split up, (Traveler).
- Kuki Shinobu: I'll get Mamoru and Genta somewhere safe and tell them to stay put. Then... I'll go south, you go north?
- Sure thing.
- Kuki Shinobu: Thanks.
- (Talk to Kuki Shinobu)
- Kuki Shinobu: Alright you two, stay here, you understand? No running off.
- Mamoru: You can count on that... We ain't going anywhere right now...
- Kuki Shinobu: Yes, I can see that. But you'd better not change your mind once you've caught your breath.
- Genta: We won't! Never again!
All the Way North
- (Approach Akira)
- Akira: Hmm... I wonder if I can hide in this box...
- Whatcha looking at?
- Akira: Huh? Ah, Shinobu! Please, have mercy...
- Shinobu isn't here.
- Akira: Huh? Wheeew... You scared the heck out of me.
- Akira: I was so sure she'd be with you... Boy, this is lucky.
- What are you doing here?
- Akira: Hehe, I closed my eyes and just ran and ran, then I tripped and fell, and this is where I ended up...
- Akira: And what do you know, it's the perfect hiding place! Even comes with these huge boxes...
- Akira: If I can squeeze myself inside one of them, Shinobu will never find me!
- Akira: ...Ah, don't sell me out, (Traveler)! Boss said our gang is our clan, and—
- Yeah, I know, I know.
- Akira: Ah, nice! So you know how we roll, hehe!
- Well, I'm not a member of the gang.
- Akira: Ahem, well... friends should look out for each other too!
- Akira: Anyway... please help me empty out one of these boxes...
- Shinobu said it's not safe around here.
- Kairagi might show up.
- Akira: Kairagi? Wait a second, this sounds like Shinobu trying to scare me out of hiding...
- Akira: Hmm... Even if it's not, I still feel like I'd rather face a bunch of Kairagi than an angry Shinobu...
- Akira: I ran so far this time, Shinobu's gonna be furious with me... Yeah, I think I'd better stay in hiding for a while...
- No, come with me. I'll make sure Shinobu goes easy on you.
- (Proceed to Branch 1)
- Fine, if she scares you that much, lemme help you hide...
- (Proceed to Branch 2)
Branch 1
- No, come with me. I'll make sure Shinobu goes easy on you.
- Akira: Y—You will? ...How do I know you mean that?
- Because you're my brother from another mother.
- Because homies are family.
- Because our gang is our clan.
- And my word is my bond.
- Akira: I guess with you there, maybe Shinobu really will let me off this time...
- Akira: Okay... I'll come with you. I'm putting my life in your hands here!
- You and Akira climb up the mountain...
- Akira: Shinobu!?
- Oh... That's unexpected...
- How come you're here?
- Kuki Shinobu: I finished searching the south and noticed you hadn't returned, so I came to see what was up on your end.
- Kuki Shinobu: Looks like I was just in time.
- Akira: Help me, (Traveler)! You promised!
- I... uh...
- Shinobu...
- Kuki Shinobu: Relax, I'm not going to do anything.
- Akira: Shinobu, spare me... Huh? Did I hear you right?
- Kuki Shinobu: We go through this song and dance every day. Even an omnipresent god would have a tough time keeping track of you all.
- Kuki Shinobu: Besides, even when I teach you a lesson, it's not long before you're up to your usual antics again.
- Akira: Hehe, in the Arataki Gang, we call that being too legit to quit!
- Dude. Not now.
- Kuki Shinobu: From now on, we will be using the Gang Bylaws of the Arataki Gang as the new disciplinary tool.
- Kuki Shinobu: I've got the basics thought out already. Once it's finished, it'll be time for class.
- Kuki Shinobu: Mamoru and Genta are waiting for you at Hanamizaka. You can make a study group and test each other on the rules.
- Akira: Wait, what? Are you serious? (Traveler), help!
- Come on, it's not that bad.
- A little learning isn't going to be fatal.
- Akira: Ugh... I'm a member of the Arataki Gang, I ain't about to waste my life studying and doing homework!
- Akira: I'm outta here!
- Kuki Shinobu: Huh? Gang Bylaws, Article 3: Insubordination shall be punished by making the member recite all the bylaws from memory!
- (Proceed to That'll Learn Them!)
Branch 2
- Fine, if she scares you that much, lemme help you hide...
- Akira: Thanks!
- Akira tries to squeeze himself into a box...
- Akira: Why is there so much stuff in here? It's so cramped...
- Akira: Ah, shoot! There goes the flyers...
- Akira: Whew, finally made it...
- Akira: But now there are flyers everywhere...
- They're visible from outside the box.
- Akira: Well, can't do anything about it now. Can you go back and see what Shinobu's up to, (Traveler)?
- Akira: I need to figure out how long I need to lie low before she calms down...
- (Proceed to Temporary Escape)
- (Talk to Akira)
- Akira: It's so cramped in here... I hope Shinobu cools down soon...
