In the realm of the dead, Tatsumi, Tsuzuki, Hisoka, Konoe, and the Gushoushin brothers are kneeling on the ground. They're playing a card game called Hyakunin'isshu. Never played it, but it's apparently the poet card game, translated as "100 poems by 100 poets" or something like that. One person reads the poem from a card, and the other players have to find the poet's card that matches it. sounds hard...

Tatsumi: [reading off of the card] For you~~~~~ Young seeds pile up in the fields of spring~~~~~ ...... Snow dances in my glove~~~~~

Tsuzuki: GOT IT~!!!

Tsuzuki suddenly bats at a card, making it fly away from the group. Hisoka sweatdrops; Konoe watches the card distressed.

Konoe: Ah!! (Damn~)

{sound f/x bashi: Tsuzuki whacking the card}

([pointing to the flying card] This.)

Gushoushin: (Ah, it flew.)

Gushoushin: (...) [The Gushoushin look exactly the same to me. Sorry.]

Konoe: [twitching] Arg~~~ You took it from me again~~~~

Tsuzuki: [chuckling] You're soft, Chief Konoe. Hyakunin'isshu is a game for physical strength. (It's an advantage to be young.) Please don't forget that we said the first person to lose treats everyone to eel. (I'm gonna get a super long eel~!)

Konoe: (Hm...) I know that!

{sound f/x bichi: the little eel figure flopping around}

Konoe: This is just like Tsuzuki, becoming strong to get food... (that bastard)

Hisoka: It looks like even ringing in the New Year didn't have any effect on him.

Tsuzuki: But still, we've been at the Chief's house playing our big Hyakunin'isshu tournament since New Year's Day... Besides we're better than those same filthy members that you usually play with. (I...it's useless.)

Konoe: Everyone else came last night for their New Year's visit. YOU PEOPLE CAME TOO LATE!!! (Idiot~)

Tsuzuki: [gaping] What are you talking about~~~!! We made room to play between end of the year and beginning of the year work despite everything going on~~~~!!!

Konoe: (Hmph.) I don't want to hear anything from the Shinigami in charge of the easy Second Area.

Tsuzuki fumes at that.

{sound f/x mu: Tsuzuki sulking}

Tsuzuki: But when it gets busy in Kyuushuu, it gets busy!

It's called the World of the Dead. In Hades, it's the organization that tries the sins of the dead. "Juuou-chou." Enma-chou is the greatest government office governed by the ruling god of Hell, Great King Enma. It is the speciality of Enma-chou's Shoukanka, also known as the Shinigami Department, to deal with various troubles associated with the trials. Their status is quite high. They are the members of that Shoukanka.

Tsuzuki: Ah, that's right...Hisoka. Afterwards let's visit Watari's lab. We should drop by since he's studying through the New Year.

Hisoka: Ah... (That sounds good but...) But... [sweatdrop] when you say studying he's not...

Tsuzuki: [sweatdrop] It's his Experience Medicine.

A little SD poorly scrawled Watari holds up a vial of... something...

Watari: (Hey you~! Help me experiment with this transformation!)

003: (Idiot.)

Hisoka: [sweatdrop] Anyway, why does he only study useless things— (That guy...)

(Experience Medidine = Immediately affecting sex-change medicine.)

Tatsumi stares at the card in his hand hard before turning to Tsuzuki.

{sound f/x ji: Tatsumi staring}

Tatsumi: Tsuzuki-san. You picked up the wrong card.

Tsuzuki: [looking at Tatsumi] Huh~?

Tatsumi: There are two cards that begin with "My glove." There's the Sovereign Emperor's Song and I read just now, the Brilliant Emperor's Song——— You picked the Sovereign Emperor's Card, didn't you?

([pointing to Tsuzuki's incorrect card] Correctly, it's "Snow dances in my glove.")

Tsuzuki blushes as he looks at his card.

Tsuzuki: (huh~) Ah~! Damn!!

Tatsumi: You can't win Hyakunin'isshu with just impressions and physical abilities. (Every year he makes the same mistake.)

(You can barely see the writing...)

Tsuzuki: ———... (mmm—...)

Gushoushin: [laughing and shrieking] (painful—...)

Tsuzuki gets one of the Gushoushin bros in a head lock while stepping on the other one. He begins talking to the chief calmly. Everyone ignores the Gushoushins.

Tsuzuki: That's right, Chief. We going to attend "that thing" again this year? (probably)

{sound f/x gyu: grabbing, Tsuzuki with one Gushoushin's neck

{sound f/x bakibekiboki: said Gushoushin's feet flailing to try and get away}

Gushoushin: (No——~)

{sound f/x mishi: creaking noise, the other Gushoushin getting stepped on}

Hisoka: ?

Konoe: [crossing arms] Naturally!!

{sound f/x go: threatening atmosphere}

Konoe: Because "that thing" is the pride of the administration!!

Tsuzuki: It's already become that season this year.

{sound f/x shimijimi: earnestly}

Konoe: It's become this year so of course it's become that season. (You're such an idiot.)

Tatsumi calmly pushes up his glasses while Hisoka just looks a little confused. He's often a little confused.

{sound f/x gya: background shrieking}

Tatsumi: My my...

{sound f/x su: Tatsumi slowly pushing up his glasses}

Tatsumi: It's the same at the beginning of every year. Those two...

Hisoka: ...

Voice: (Instead of eel, I'd rather have fried shrimp...)

Hisoka: ...Tatsumi-san, what is "that thing"?

Tatsumi: Hm? Ahh...! Terribly sorry, I didn't realize.

Tatsumi pounds his fist into his palm.

{sound f/x pon: quiet impact of Tatsumi pounding his fist}

Tatsumi: Kurosaki-kun, this is your first time, isn't it?

Hisoka: (No, it's no big deal, you don't have to apologize...)

Tatsumi: On the 7th day of the New Year, the Juuou-chou holds a martial arts tournament. I say martial arts, but there's only archery. Each office puts together a team of three representatives. We compete against each other with the annual results of training.

When you use magic, the most important principal is spiritual powers—— People who have spiritual powers can employ advanced Shikigami. The aim of having a martial arts tournament is to train these spiritual powers.

Tatsumi: It's not to say that they have bad relationships but... There's a terrible rivalry between each office for the championship. (It's almost ugly...)

([pointing to Tatsumi] Doesn't really have an interest in things like that.)

Konoe whips around at Tatsumi's words and makes a fist

{sound f/x bishi: whip}

{sound f/x gashi: make a fist}

Konoe: What are you saying? This is a problem that concerns the office's honor!!

Tsuzuki: (Right, right!) I mean, don't you get really happy if your side wins? (Right?)

Gushoushin: (Really?)

Tsuzuki: Truly if humans don't have competitive spirits, they won't grow up. (Ain't that right, Chief.) [chuckling]

([arrow pointing to Tsuzuki] Sounds awful.)

Konoe: Um! That's the way! (Tsuzuki.)

Tatsumi: (Even though our bodies won't be growing any...) Okay, I'm going to read the next card.

Time passes. Tsuzuki and Hisoka have apparently decided to brave their chances and visit Watari's. They bring along the Gushoushin bros and are greeted by Watari, 003, and lots of other random birds (penguin, toucan, etc...).

Watari: [waving genkily] Yoo~!

{sound f/x shuta: short wave}

Watari: Happy New Year!!!

Tsuzuki: Sorry for just coming over like this—

Watari: I said it's fine. You were close by.

The penguin serves one of the Gushoushin bros some tea at the low table where everyone is seated.

Penguin: (Have some tea.)

Gushoushin: (Thank you.)

([near the wildly flapping toucan] Welcome dance.)

Tsuzuki: The Chief is going to come over tomorrow to say hi.

Watari: ......like always, that politely annoying old man... (Really.) By the way Tsuzuki, you want a piece of this? We're betting on which office's gonna win this year's martial arts competition.

Watari waves some betting tickets in Tsuzuki's face.

{sound f/x hira: the tickets fluttering}

Watari: (By the way, the most popular right now is Enma-chou's who's won 15 consecutive victories.)

Tsuzuki: You—— (That you getting a job?) I don't have that kind of money. (You know how poor I am~~~)

Watari: Ah—h. If I had any martial arts abilities I'd be in the tournament, too... The extra prize is a fascinating 20 day long paid vacation.

Watari focuses on Hisoka suddenly.

Watari: That reminds me, Boy, you come from a really old family, from the Kamakura period, right? th generation is starting to continue.

Tsuzuki bursts up from the couch in shock.

Tsuzuki: HU~~~~H! You're kidding me! I knew you came from an old family, but I didn't know it was sort of that old family! You should have told us!

(But if he told them it doesn't mean that anything would have changed.)

Hisoka looks at Tsuzuki innocently.

Hisoka: ...... But you didn't ask...

Tsuzuki: [crying SD tears] ...that's just what a guy like you would say... (I listen but you don't talk.)

Gushoushin: Hisoka-san, if you were born a warrior, did you learn any martial arts?

Hisoka: Yes...

Voice: Once, at least, he was the successor, so they usually teach you things.

Hisoka: Of course I learned Kendou, aikidou, and kyuudou

Hisoka: Maybe...

Watari: You've got a body type where it's hard building muscle.

Tsuzuki and one of the Gushoushin brothers sweatdrop to the side.

Tsuzuki: (Wow——~) Little Hisoka-chan's from a martial arts family... (I just thought he was some old family's young master...)

Gushoushin: (How unexpected~~~) I'd be scared if he got angry...

Hisoka gets introspective and starts pondering the meaning of everything. He's a very angsty little kid.

Hisoka: That's right... My old man didn't want me, but someone to succeed the "family." They were puppets living in order for there not to be an end to the succession of the Kurosaki household's true blood. Even if wasn't "me," I'm glad—— As for who continues the Kurosaki household, anything would be okay. Anyone would be okay......

Some time later. Hisoka is in the realm of the dead, wandering around in his big overcoat trying to warm himself up. Apparently Hell ain't as hot as people say it is.

Hisoka: Since the day after New Year's, at work... that old man's been working us hard...

{sound f/x ka: Hisoka's footsteps}

{sound f/x haa: Hisoka exhaling on his hands to warm them}

Hisoka: (Ah— it's cold...)

{sound f/x dan: sudden impact}

Hisoka: !

As Hisoka approaches Hell's Archery Range™, he notices another man standing there, practicing. The man is about Tsuzuki's age or so, but doesn't look very human. He has markings, two black lines, under each eye, and he's got pointy ears. His eyes are small and narrowed, making him look permanently angry.

Hisoka: Someone's using the archery range...

The man calmly aims the arrow and draws the bow. Hisoka hides in the bushes and inspects the man's three arrows, which lie in the target's bullseye.

Hisoka: He has such clean posture... I wonder who in the world he is... (Wow...) Amazing... They're all in the middle of the bull's eye... (I can't do that...) But his energy is like something I've seen before...

The man suddenly glares straight at Hisoka, giving Hisoka a heart attack.

{sound f/x giro: stare}

{sound f/x biku: surprise}

Hisoka: [blushing] !

Man: I'm not impressed by your sneaky undercover work. You Henjou-chou's secret agent? Or a spy from Soutei-chou?

{sound f/x gasa: rustle of bushes near Hisoka}

Hisoka: And I'm not a spy... I'm a human from Enma-chou.

Man: Hm...m Enma-chou huh. And? What're you doing in a cold place like this?

Hisoka: [trying to look cool] I was watching and I thought you had a good stance and stuff. Because I also... used to do archery.

The man starts smiling at Hisoka.

Man: (Oh—) Well, it's praise-worthy for a young kid.

Hisoka: Yeah...

Man: The bow is the best way to train your mind.

Hisoka: He looks like such a nice guy when he's smiling...

Man: What's your name?

Hisoka: It's Kurosaki.

The man freezes.

Man: —— Kurosaki...?

The man turns to Hisoka, suddenly raging. Hisoka just looks confused.

Man: Oh, I get it... It's you... You're that bastard's...!!

Hisoka: ——...?

Later on, Tsuzuki and Hisoka are eating lunch in the Shoukanka main building. Tatsumi bursts in, frantic.

Tatsumi: Tsuzuki-san! Kurosaki-kun!!

Tsuzuki: [looking up from his lunch] What's up, Tatsumi?

([Tsuzuki's lunch box] Bought cake.)

Tatsumi: Will you please come with me for one moment!?

Tsuzuki & Hisoka look at each other in confusion before following Tatsumi.

Tsuzuki & Hisoka: ?

Tsuzuki: (Something happened?)

Hisoka: (Who knows...)

([arrow to Tsuzuki's meal] Monbran.)

Elsewhere, Watari and Tatsumi are talking to the duo.

Tsuzuki: WHAT~~~~~~~~!!? The chief slipped a disk~~~!!?

{sound f/x shi: Tatsumi hushing Tsuzuki loudly}

Tatsumi: [finger in front of lips] Your voice is too loud!!

Tsuzuki: (sorry...)

Tatsumi: If our other colleagues heard, what would we do!!!

Tsuzuki: [sweatdropping] (......)

Tatsumi: The truth is after you all left... He went to stand up, of course.

Konoe: (AHH!)

(Instant replay video.)

Tatsumi: It looks like he jerked something. Thanks do that, I was unable to return home... Watari came for a medical examination and the two of us confined the Chief to his house.

Tsuzuki: Really——~? Then, what is he going to do about the martial arts tournament—? Chief was really in high spirits about that.

Watari: It's impossible. He won't be cured of that for a while. (Well, after all, a year's just a year.)

{sound f/x kippari: flatly}

Tatsumi: Going on from there——— Tsuzuki-san. Kurosaki-kun. Please stand-in for the martial arts tournament.

An overly dramatic, really horribly scrawled SD Tatsumi melodramatically speaks to the two.

(Who's that...? [sweatdrop] Sorry, and I'm the one who drew it...)

Tsuzuki and Hisoka immediately do the mature thing and freak out.

Tsuzuki: HUUH———~!!?

Hisoka: (m...me, too?)

Tatsumi: I failed to mention it, but Kurosaki-kun was originally a candidate to be one of the members. Therefore, the Chief's replacement is you, Tsuzuki-san.

Tsuzuki: But— that guy's a member, too, right? I don't want to do it.

Hisoka: "That guy"...?

Tatsumi: It's all right. He won't appear because of his work. I beg of you, Tsuzuki-san.

Tsuzuki: (Mm~~~) But still—

{sound f/x bu: Tsuzuki sighing}

Tatsumi: If you win, you can eat as much fugu as you want.

Tatsumi whips a card out, turning Tsuzuki into drooling puppy-Tsuzuki form.

([pointing to the card in Tatsumi's hand] Free coupon.)

Tatsumi: (Look, it's delicious isn't it, Pochi~!)

Tsuzuki: I'LL DO IT~!

{sound f/x wafu: woof}

{sound f/x pata: Tsuzuki-puppy's tail wagging}

Hisoka: ([sweatdropping] ......unreal...)

([arrow pointing to Tsuzuki] As always, a weak guy who falls for the bait.)

Later on, Hisoka takes Tsuzuki to practice in Hell's Archery Range™.

Hisoka: Okay, first of all, watch me as an example.

Step.

Hisoka: Open your feet to about half of your body width. Fix the arrow and slowly pull back on the bow.

Draw.

Hisoka: This sequence of movement is called "Hassetsu." It's a foundation of archery.

Tsuzuki carefully tries imitating Hisoka as he acts out his instructions.

{sound f/x fumu: Tsuzuki making "Uh-huh" noises}

Hisoka: If it's one with your mind, aim for the target...

Meeting.

{sound f/x dan: Hisoka's arrow hitting the target}

Hisoka: Loose.

Let go.

Hisoka: Since the arrow makes a parabola, don't loose directly at the target. Aim a little bit high.

Tsuzuki: Okay.

Hisoka: Then, you try it.

Tsuzuki aims carefully for the target.

{sound f/x bishu: whip}

Hisoka looks shocked as the arrow whizzes past his face, cutting his cheek.

{sound f/x dan: the arrow hitting the back wall}

Tsuzuki sweatdrops, as Hisoka is standing directly behind him. The arrow is stuck in the back wall of the archery range.

Hisoka: (just a little~~...)

([arrow pointing to the, um, arrow] HERE.)

Tsuzuki: ——... A...um, sorry Hisoka. That...

Hisoka: [calmly wiping blood from his cheek] (It's okay since it'll be healed soon.) Well... It was your first time after all.

(Bloodshed.)

Tsuzuki tries again.

{sound f/x bishi: whip}

{sound f/x bashi: impact}

{sound f/x dosu: spurting}

Hisoka: [extremely pissed off] BASTARD~~~

In the archery range, the back wall, ceiling, and floor are covered in arrows. A very pissed off Hisoka steps all over a crying Tsuzuki.

Hisoka: You're doing it on purpose, aren't you!!

{sound f/x geshi: sound of cloth rumpling as Tsuzuki gets stepped on}

{sound f/x hi: Tsuzuki shrieking and crying}

Hisoka: You got some kind of grudge against me——~~!!!

Tsuzuki: (UWA—) It wasn't on purpose, Sensei~~~!!!

Voice: SHUT UP!!!

A shocked Hisoka falls into Tsuzuki.

Hisoka: (Ah~)

Tsuzuki: [shriek]

{sound f/x go: threatening atmosphere}

The man from earlier stands angrily before the pair.

Man: Don't make so much noise in the dojo.

{sound f/x gata: collapse}

Man: Tsuzuki.

Tsuzuki: [staring back at the man] ————... Terazuma...

Hisoka: ...... Huh...?

Terazuma: [looking at Hisoka] What is it... You look dazed, boy.

Hisoka: [sweatdropping and looking highly confused as usual] ...Huh? Who in the world...

Terazuma: I'm Terazuma Hajime. In the service of Enma-chou's Shoukanka—— The Shinigami in charge of the Fourth Area, Chuugoku Region.

Hisoka: Shinigami————!!?

Hisoka looks horrified and amazingly embarrassed.

([pointing to the highly horrified SD Hisoka] Note: It's Hisoka.)

Hisoka: (......)

(Because he's destroyed and who damaged him...)

Hisoka drops to his knees, sweating heavily.

Hisoka: I~... I didn't realize... (Now that you mention it, I've seen you in the office 2, 3 times. I'm an idiot...)

{sound f/x gaku: Hisoka collasping}

Tsuzuki: What is it, Terazuma. Did you come to say things about me again?

{sound f/x busu: Tsuzuki's muttered complaining}

Tsuzuki: Or you came here to pick a fight with me about something...

Terazuma: Not really. I only came here to practice my bow.

{sound f/x kyuu: Terazuma putting on his glove}

([pointing to the gloves] Yugake (A protective deer skin glove for your thumb when you pull the bow))

Tsuzuki: What...?

Terazuma: [kneeling on the floor preparing himself] Because I'm also a member of the martial arts tournament team.

Tsuzuki: WHAT~~~~~~~~!!

Terazuma: Every year we win because of me. It's just natural, isn't it?

Tsuzuki begins storming about as Hisoka still tries to come to grips with things.

Tsuzuki: (DAMMIT—) That bastard Tatsumi tricked me~~~~!!!

{sound f/x kii: Tsuzuki's screaming and ranting}

Hisoka: (He's a true schemer, isn't he.) ...... (That man...)

(This is a man who hasn't eaten, isn't it...)

Terazuma: Well, since things are like this, it'll give you a chance to stretch your legs a bit. In charge of the easy Kyuushuu Tsuzuki-SAN!!

{sound f/x piku: Terazuma twitching}

([arrow pointing to Terazuma] Kouhai. )

Tsuzuki: (He~) Same for you... Don't get caught up in your own abilities too much, Hajime-chan.

{sound f/x hiku: Tsuzuki shaking with anger}

([arrow pointing to Tsuzuki] Senpai. )

Tsuzuki and Terazuma face off amongst the evil testosterone standoff background.

{sound f/x ba: big dramatic testosterone impact}

{sound f/x mukamuka: feeling disgusted}

Hisoka: ( [referring to the overly dramatic scene] ...... it's your ordinary composition...)

(Shut up, Hisoka!)

Tsuzuki finally grabs Hisoka and drags him off.

Tsuzuki: Let's go practice, too, Hisoka.

{sound f/x gashi: grabbing Hisoka's wrist}

Tsuzuki: OVER THERE!!!

Hisoka: (Huh?) Right...

Terazuma darkly watches them leave. Tsuzuki and Hisoka are in another dojo, still practicing their archery.

Tsuzuki: The point is that bastard, he hates everything about me. That I'm always with the Shoukanka. And I'm followed by the twelve best Shikigami. And I'm in charge of Kyuushuu which has a lower rate of work—— Even that I exist.

(One person can usually only handle working with 2-3 Shikigami.)

Hisoka: Unusual, isn't it.

{sound f/x su: Hisoka slowly preparing to shoot}

Hisoka: For you to say bad things about another person...

Tsuzuki: [looking a bit embarrassed] ...Is it? But stiill... How someone uses their individual abilities is up to them, right? But he's different. I just think that if someone has powers they should do work suited for them. Looks like he was originally a detective... so it can't be helped that he's so straight-laced and upright.

Hisoka aims for the target and watches Tsuzuki.

Hisoka: ——...

Tsuzuki: I understand that, too, but... still... In this work, you don't always have to hurt someone.

Tsuzuki folds in on himself introspectively, holding his summoning hand.

Tsuzuki: If I could do it... I don't want to use something like this... I'm escaping, and they're thinking...

{sound f/x bishu: whoosh of the arrod}

Hisoka fires the arrow. It hits the target dead center.

{sound f/x dan: arrow hitting the target}

Later on, the three members of Enma-chou's team are gathered in the park.

Hisoka: All right then, from now on whenever Terazuma-san and I are free we'll go practice with you. At least we can make you hit the target. After all we three have to take turns firing.

Tsuzuki: Sure...

Terazuma: Don't worry. He's the exceptional Shinigami after all. He'll improve soon. (Right, Tsuzuki?)

Tsuzuki: [twitching] (...) (you're being sarcastic~~~~~~!!!)

{sound f/x muka: disgusted}

Voice: (OHOHOHO) Do you not think that we will win over members such as these!?

The three men spin around to see who's talking.

{sound f/x ha: gasp of surprise}

Terazuma: (Just suddenly...)

Three women are gathered before them. They looks exactly the same, except one has blond hair, one has brown hair, and one has black hair. They're all dressed in traditional kimonos and looks about ready to "O-ho-ho-ho" all day long.

(What [sweatdrop] who're these guys...)

Terazuma: (Ack!) You guys are...!!!

Blond hair: Soutei-chou's Kanawa Three Sisters. I am Yukiko.

Black hair: I'm Tsukiko.

Brown hair: I'm Hanako~!

{sound f/x ba: sudden dramatic impact}

Yukiko: It is most pleasant to see you again, Terazuma-san. This year for sure we shall win.

Terazuma: (Hmph) What half-witted thing are you saying. We're going to win!!

[arrows pointing to both Yukiko & Terazuma] They've already erased out the existence of other offices' players.

Hisoka: ......Who are those three girls?

Tsuzuki: [whispering to Hisoka] Soutei-chou's Kanawa Sisters: Yukiko, Tsukiko, Hanako. Every year, Terazuma lives for when he challenges the three sisters with his bow(?). Well, after all, they've continued to lose for 15 years in a row but...

Sister: (Ohohohoho) It's useless to worry, Tsuzuki-san.

Sister: This year we've prepared our ultimate weapon to use against Terazuma.

Sister: All that's left is this fragile looking brat.

{sound f/x muka: disgusted}

Hisoka looks highly insulted and ready to kick some ass as the sisters continue to laugh.

Yukiko: This year it will be the super deluxe, beautiful us!! It will be settled with Soutei-chou's Kanawa Three Sisters as champions!

Tsukiko: (Well then, please, continue playing~)

{sound f/x hohoho: the sisters laughing}

{sound f/x piku: Terazuma's massive twitch}

Terazuma looks pissed. He and Hisoka wallow in the background as Tsuzuki ponders the Sisters.

Tsuzuki: Wow——~~~ They have amazing self-confidence, those Kanawa-sans. (Of course, it's narcissistic self-confidence, isn't it.)

{sound f/x go: threatening atmosphere coming off of the brooding two}

Terazuma and Hisoka turn on Tsuzuki.

Hisoka: Tsuzuki! Go back to the dojo!!

{sound f/x kuru: turning}

Terazuma: Change of plans! From now on we're going to be training seriously!!

Tsuzuki: (Huh—~) No way! Didn't we just practice before?

Hisoka: (SHUT UP~~~) Don't be talking back, Tsuzuki~!!

{sound f/x bishi: whip of an arrow}

Terazuma: Look! Posture——~~!!! (Your hips are too weak!!)

{sound f/x hi: shriek}

{sound f/x bashi: impact}

Is it all right to go on like this? What will become of this year's martial arts tournament!!
