Kumon Hyodo/Sparkling Snow Globe
From A3! Wiki
Unmeltable Snowman
Backstage StoriesKumon | It's cold today too... |
Juza | Kumon, look outside. |
Kumon | Outside? |
UWAH! It’s snowing! | |
Nii-chan, I wanna build a snowman! | |
Juza | Sure. Then let’s go out for a bit? |
Kumon | Yayyy! |
Juza | Make sure you’re bundled up before you go out so you don’t catch a cold. |
Kumon | Okaaay! |
And done! Look, look! | |
I tried making the face look kinda like nii-chan! | |
Juza | Do we look alike…? |
Kumon | Ehh, I think you guys look super similar though! |
Juza | I dunno if we look alike, but it came out pretty strong-lookin’, huh? |
Kumon | Right! |
Juza | …It’s gettin’ really cold out. |
Let’s head back in. | |
Kumon | Ok! |
We’ll see each other again tomorrow, Mr. snowman! | |
Mornin’, Mr. snowman! | |
I’ll make a friend for you today—. | |
HUH!? | |
The snowman melted… | |
Even though I said I’d see him tomorrow… | |
Juza | …We can make another one. |
Kumon | *Sniffle*… he came out so cool though… |
—HAH! | |
(I fell asleep before I knew it… and I had a really nostalgic dream.) | |
…Ah, it’s snowing! | |
Hey, hey, Sumi-san, it’s snow—. | |
Ah, huh? He’s not here… | |
*door opens* | |
Misumi | Kumon~! It’s snowing. |
Everyone’s outside, so let’s head there together? | |
Kumon | I’ll go! |
Uwahh, it’s pure white…! | |
Sakuya | What is that, Citron-san? |
Citron | It’s a snow Kamekichi! |
Taichi | That was Kamekichi!? |
I thought it was Akapoyo-kun…! | |
Izumi | Your snow bunny is adorable too, Muku-kun. |
Muku | Ehehe, there just happened to be red berries around, so I tried making one. |
Attach them as the eyes and… done! | |
Misumi | Everyone, I brought Kumon over too~. |
Izumi | Ah, Kumon-kun! We’re making snowmen together right now. |
Kumon | Snowmen… |
Misumi | Wahh! Amazing, everyone, amaaazing! |
I’m going to make a triangle snowman~! | |
Taichi | But the snow hasn’t piled up at all yet~. |
The only snowmen we can make are tiny! | |
Citron | We can’t hold a snowfall fright[1] either! |
Izumi | You mean a snowball fight? |
Citron | That’s it! |
Sakuya | When it piles up even more, I’d love to make a snow hut too! |
Misumi | Let's make a snowman together, Kumon~! |
Kumon | Yeah! |
Kumon | Done! |
Taichi | Amazin’, Kyu-chan! |
It looks just like Juza-san! | |
Kumon | Hehe, it’s cause I’ve always been making my snowmen while imagining nii-chan’s face, see~. |
Muku | That’s Kyu-chan for you. |
It really looks just like him! | |
Misumi | Its eyes are triangles~! |
Citron | Ohh… |
The norse twin[2] is getting intense... | |
Sakuya | Norse twin? |
Ah, the north wind, right! | |
Izumi | It’s gotten cold now, so how about we head back inside? |
Taichi | Yep! |
Misumi | ‘Ka~y! |
Kumon | … |
Izumi | Kumon-kun? |
Kumon | I wonder if it’ll melt when tomorrow comes… |
Izumi | It’s a bit small, so there’s a chance it might melt, huh… |
Kumon | Yeah, I thought so… |
Actually, I had a dream a moment ago. | |
Izumi | A dream? |
Kumon | Yep. It was about a time I built a snowman together with nii-chan when I was little. |
Izumi | Fufu, that sounds fun. |
Kumon | We made it pretty huge when we built it together, so I didn’t think it would melt right away… |
But it was a goner when I went to check on it the next day… | |
So that’s why I feel a little lonely when I have to leave my snowman. | |
Izumi | Yeah, it does feel a bit painful when the snowman you made yourself melts away… |
Kumon | You're right about that… |
Izumi | Ah, good morning, Juza-kun. |
Juza | Mornin’. |
It snowed, huh? | |
Izumi | Yeah. |
I made snowmen with Kumon-kun and the other guys last night. | |
Juza | I heard from Kumon. |
Sounds like you had fun. | |
Izumi | I also heard about the time you two made a snowman together when you were younger. |
But Kumon-kun seemed a little sad when he said the snowman you made melted right away. | |
Juza | Ahh, that reminds me that happened too… |
It rained that night, so the huge snowman we made didn’t last long. | |
Izumi | I see… |
Juza | Back then, Kumon was cryin’ while sayin’ he wished unmeltable snow existed. |
Izumi | (Unmeltable snow, huh…) |
Ah, I know! | |
Juza | ??? |
Izumi | He’s here. Kumon-kun. |
Kumon | What’s up, Director? |
Izumi | I’m giving this to you. |
Kumon | …? |
Is it ok if I open it? | |
Izumi | Of course. |
Kumon | This is.. a snow globe? |
It’s sooo pretty! Ah, there’s a snowman inside! | |
Izumi | Fufu, this is a snowman that’s unmeltable. |
Kumon | …! Director… You remembered my story that time! |
I’m suuuper happy!! | |
Izumi | I’m glad if it cheers you up. |
CHOICE 1: The snow has piled up quite a bit now. [+]
|
|
CHOICE 2: Aren’t you cold over here? [+]
|
|
Kumon | Anyways, this snow globe sure is beautiful. |
I think I could watch it forever and never get tired of it! | |
And now I can meet this snowman 365 days of the year! | |
Thanks, Director! |
