I sacrificed an opportunity to attend the opening of a brand new casino. I do hope it was worth it.
Hope Fragment[]
To me, "hope" has only one meaning-- anything that brings me closer to my dream.

K1-B0 & Celestia[]
K1-B0 & Celestia
I've always had doubts about something.
*sigh* Judging by your face, I'm guessing this has to do with me somehow?
Precisely. What I would like to know, Keebo, is...as a robot, does luck exist for you?
C'mon, that's robophobic!
But isn't it odd?
The factor of luck was programmed into us humans from the moment of our design.
However, you were designed by humans...
Is it possible for a being created by human hands to be programmed with luck?
That's... I never heard about my creator, Professor Idabashi, programming luck into me...
That's hardly a surprise. To me, you don't come across as particularly lucky or unlucky.
If it were possible for humans to program luck...
Your creator would likely have bestowed you with good luck.
So...you're saying I don't have *any* luck whatsoever?
No, not quite. That's why I have my doubts.
Huh?
If we assume that it's impossible for humans to program fate...
At the moment of your creation, could luck have been integrated into you?
I suppose such an assumption can't really be proven either way.
Right... It's difficult for me to say whether I'm lucky or unlucky, even...
But that reminds me! The other day, I found a coin in the Hope's Peak Academy hallway!
Hmm... Is that so?
And then, while I was carrying a stack of papers, I couldn't see and missed a step on the stairs...
And...what, exactly, are you getting at?
Uh...I was just recalling some events that might determine whether I'm lucky or unlucky...
I see. Those events are so ordinary that they hardly serve as evidence for luck either way.
At the very least, being jerked around by Celestia right now sure feels like an unlucky event!
Angie & Celestia[]
Angie & Celestia
The sea is lovely even at night.
I'm reminded of the time I wagered my very life while aboard a cruise ship in the dead of night.
Celestia, why don't you try looking to Atua for guidance?
Oh my, where did that come from so suddenly?
After all, you believe in the existence of luck, yes?
Surely that's because you acknowledge the existence of God as well, yes?
It's simply a difference in perspective.
Hmm? What do you mean?
Luck is something that is programmed into us from the moment of our birth.
Some believe this to be the work of a higher power. I, however, do not.
Oh, I know, Celestia! Why don't you try being a sacrifice just once?
And how, exactly, does that relate to anything I just said?
Don't worry! I just need to draw a little blood.
That's hardly the issue. And besides...
If I were to offer up my blood, it would be to a handsome vampire alone.
Oh dear, what a waste of blood that would be.
The feeling is mutual. I'd sooner use my blood for gambling than offer it to a god, at any rate.
Kiyotaka & Celestia[]
Kiyotaka & Celestia
I played shogi with you countless times while attending Hope's Peak Academy, but...
What say you? Care to try your hand at something else this time?
Oh my... I never expected you to make such a suggestion.
Even I'm capable of a bit of imagination on a trip like this!
To make our time here truly productive, we should have a slight change of pace.
Reasoning aside...what manner of match did you have in mind?
This right here. A video game.
Oh my, I didn't know you played games.
Is that surprising? While it is true that I once believed that games interfered with studies...
...after witnessing Chiaki's steady efforts day after day, my mind was eventually changed.
So, which game did you have in mind? Not that it matters. My victory is assured regardless.
Of the games here...it seems we can play shogi, chess, or even mahjong!
Would those truly be much different from the shogi matches we've played previously?
Who can say. But it feels like a different experience, and your luck may differ as well.
I see... So those are the differences you meant.
Precisely! Now, let us begin!
Electronic game or otherwise...it's all the same to me. I shall win every round, as always.
Sakura & Celestia[]
Sakura & Celestia
You may rest and recuperate here. Does your foot still hurt?
The pain is mostly gone now thanks to you. Carrying me was quite the help.
A fine blunder twisting my ankle...
I was walking along carelessly and got blinded by the brilliant sun.
It doesn't appear to be swollen... Nonetheless, we should have Mikan examine it.
Mikan, you say... I suppose it can't very well be avoided. I simply...feel rather incompatible.
This is no time for such qualms. I shall call for her right away. Please wait here.
How unlucky...
Are you speaking of your fall?
No...I mean my present circumstance.
My luck is peerless when it comes to gambling... and, unfortunately, only gambling.
As difficult as it is to admit, I believe this incident serves as a grim reminder of that fact.
Hmm...I do not understand. For what reason is my presence bad luck?
Why couldn't you be a handsome man instead...
I beg your pardon?
Sakura, Kirumi...even Teruteru, whose culinary skills I am unfortunately forced to acknowledge...
Of all those whose skills and consideration I'd accept into my castle...
...none are handsome men. Is that not the epitome of bad luck?
Alas, a man with whom you match is sure to be a rare encounter indeed.
Indeed... I've yet to meet a handsome man who meets my criteria.
As the sands of time pass, so too may the tides of fortune change. Patience is a virtue.
How does one live with this...patience? What a bother...
Celestia & Fuyuhiko[]
Celestia & Fuyuhiko
Hey, you hungry? Let's go get somethin', my treat.
Oh my... What a turn of events. It's not every day that you speak to me willingly.
Er, I guess that was kinda out of nowhere. Sorry to put you on the spot.
I'm guessing you're the "nameless casino crusher" who cleaned out a shady online casino, eh?
Ah, I suppose that did happen. I discovered that I could gamble great sums while still in school...
Curiosity got the better of me, one thing led to another, and now they're no longer in business.
What a disappointment that was. Why do you bring it up?
Bingo. I figured that could've only been the work of someone with an Ultimate talent.
Sure, it coulda been one of the lucky ones, but none of 'em seemed to be the casino-going types.
And that conjecture led you to me?
Eh, call it intuition. You seemed to be bored around that time, so I put two and two together.
To be honest, that casino was run by a rival gang.
Apparently they were using underhanded methods to dupe people, which nearly forced my hand...
But before you could make a move, I had crushed them. Correct?
No excuses--you beat me to it. So hey, I figured I at least owed ya lunch, y'know?
I'll take you up on your gracious offer. I have been eyeing the special deluxe gyoza at the hut...
Whatever you're in the mood for, on me. Don't forget a drink and dessert.
I can't very well refuse. However...
While you're offering such hospitality, might you be able to introduce me to a gambling den?
Preferably of the no-earnings-limit, high stakes variety.
You serious?
I can imagine myself being at ease and quite enjoying such a place of your recommendation.
This really ain't somethin' to discuss out in the open. We'll get in touch back in reality later.
Yes, I shall be waiting. I require a great deal more funds to realize my dream, after all.
Celestia & Chiaki[]
Celestia & Chiaki
The goal of this camp is to polish one's talent and seek new possibilities, correct?
I've something to request of you, Chiaki.
Oho, a favor for Celestia?
Among the games you often play, I've heard that there are some with gambling elements.
That's true. Some are actual gambling games, while others have a casino area as an extra.
If we were to gamble against one another in these games, whose talent would reign supreme, I wonder?
I had played against the lucky Makoto and Nagito recently in mahjong.
But our fourth player, the Headmaster, lost so spectacularly that the results were meaningless...
If we play one-on-one together enough times, we might figure out who's superior.
Precisely. Do you mind? Will you accept my challenge?
Sure, it'll be fun. I'm happy when anyone takes interest in games, no matter what the form.
Very well. No hard feelings, no matter who the victor.
Yep. With games as my expertise, and gambling yours...
...either of us stands an equal chance, I think. Anyway, I hope you're ready to game all night!
Celestia & Sonia[]
Celestia & Sonia
A pleasant wind, and cooler than usual... If only the beach were always like this.
Oh, you'd love the beach of my homeland. The climate is more mild, the wind more refreshing...
It may not be sufficient for those who swim year round, but I think you'd quite like it, Celestia.
Your homeland... It's in Europe if I'm not mistaken, yes?
Yes. It's a small country, but a very pleasant place to live.
That's right--you like castles, huh?
If you ever visit my country, I'll invite you to my castle!
"Like" may be an understatement, for it is my dream to live in a castle...
But visiting a castle may prove useful in eventually designing my own.
A fine idea. Please don't hesitate to visit!
I shall do so. That reminds me, there was something I wanted to ask...
Is gambling popular in the Kingdom of Novoselic?
We don't have any casinos and such for tourists, but we have several games unique to our country.
In one game, we bet on how many new Makango--creatures that multiply when scared--there are.
It also serves as a time to pray for the safety and prosperity of the kingdom's coming year.
The winner receives the finest Makango of all those that have multiplied that year.
To be frank, I've no idea of the value of these mysterious creatures...
But as an event unique to your country, it sounds like a rather interesting amusement.
Though if I do win, I'm not sure that I'd want a strange creature as a prize.
Celestia & Masaru[]
Celestia & Masaru
Guh... *sob, sniff* My monster movie...
Let's see, this is the best card, right? I do believe then that victory is mine.
And with that, the first showing will be this gothic vampire film.
But how!? This is my own game! How can I lose to someone who doesn't know the rules!?
How indeed... I am a gambler, you know.
I demand a rematch! This time, it's a race!
I refuse. I'd hate to run around in this heat... Besides, you're at such an unfair advantage.
Even more unfair than playing this card game I'd never played before, I might add.
Nobody said it was just one round! It's best two out of three, so you gotta win one more!
*sigh* Why must children be so troublesome? I took precious time out of my day to play with you.
Rather than insisting a rematch, perhaps you'd be better off running outside for the next two hours.
I can guarantee that you'll get to see your monster movie faster that way.
You cheapskate! Wienerless monster! Dookie!
Hehehe.
Don't even freakin' *think* of gettin' cocky on me just cuz you're a kid, you bratty little *shit*!
AAAHHH! The monster got maaad!
Himiko & Celestia & Teruteru[]
Himiko & Celestia & Teruteru
Okay, Teruteru... Watch this coin I borrowed from you very closely...
Aaand presto!
Wow! It disappeared!
Impressed? Look where it appeared.
Well, shucks. You make that kind of trick look easy!
It's not a trick. It's *magic*.
But surely the Ultimate Magician has more than that up her sleeves.
Of course! Once we're out of here, I plan to put on a show demonstrating three years of practice!
Also, I'm not a magician. I'm a *mage*.
I can relate, Himiko.
I'm tired of having to correct people every time they call me a cook. I'm a chef!
So you really do understand. We're partners in this struggle.
Aren't you the same way, Celestia? Don't you have to correct people when they say your real name?
Oh? What ever do you mean?
My real name is Celestia Ludenberg... Everyone calls me that, as they should.
All thanks to your persistence, yeah? Hifumi and Kokichi often call you by your real name...
I told you...Celestia Ludenberg *is* my real name.
Do you understand?
Heh, I get it, I get it! Glare at me any harder and you're gonna make me blush!
In a weird way, you two are a good match.
Hey, you know me--the occasional scolding keeps me in line.
What a troubled soul. He enjoys being ignored as well. People like him are a troublesome sort.
Oops, we got way off topic. Back to my show! I want you guys to come too.
I've never shown you my real magic. Also, Teruteru may be annoying, but at least he makes me food.
So I want to put on a good show for you all! Be sure to keep your schedules open!
Very well... There's no harm in the occasional simple enjoyment of an entertaining show.
Gastronomy is my life, but hey, I'm glad you're grateful.
Wow... I wonder if this is how a mom feels on Mother's Day.
I'm imagining you as a mom and it's *not* good.
Genocide Jack & Celestia & Kotoko[]
Genocide Jack & Celestia & Kotoko
Hot vampires? Sign me up, my dude. Though I'd prefer slaying 'em to being surrounded by 'em.
Aww yeah, got me some yakitori. Always best to start with the tried and true.
Blood and impending death makes a man's charm shine, true, but killing them is such a waste.
Oh, they sell gyoza here. They truly cater to a wide variety of needs.
Liking grownup guys is gross. But I guess liking kids would be way more gross, huh.
Ah, I want some manju! Sweet just can't be beat!
My White Knight in a vampire outfit... Hachi machi! Now *that* gets my blood pumpin'!
Hmm, sauce is fine, but salt is the bee's knees.
In terms of appearance, Byakuya is adequate, but he's hardly fit to serve me.
This isn't as good as the gyoza in Utsunomiya, but it's quite tolerable.
Ah, that older boy? I just get the impression that being held captive suits him.
So sweet! This manju gets a gold star!
What're you guys doing judging my White Knight! Do I gotta get stabby with my chicken skewers!?
Oh my... I was simply going along with the topic. May I try some of your yakitori?
Your girl talk is so gorey. Talking about sweets is obviously the way to go.
What's this motley crew from hell doin' talking girl talk, anyway?
Celestia & Komaru & Monaca[]
Celestia & Komaru & Monaca
That about covers my dream... Or rather, my life's quota.
Is that enough for your dream gathering assignment?
Yes, that's perfect. Thank you for your cooperation.
A castle and handsome vampires... What an amazing dream. It's like something out of a manga.
Even at your age, I guess some people still have child-like dreams.
I told it to you in good faith... Your reaction is rather upsetting to me.
Huh? But I was complimenting you! Typical grownup dreams are so boring.
Well...regardless of your opinion, I would never waver when it comes to my dream.
A simple wish while being true to oneself... That's what's worth devoting one's life to.
Isn't that a little...naive?
Did you say something?
N-Nope!
Hey, what about you, Komaru? Will you tell me about your dream too?
My dream... It's nothing too big. You might even say it's ordinary, and just a dream...
It would be helpful to have more samples.
You happened to be eavesdropping and heard my dream, yet you're tightlipped with your own?
I wasn't sitting here trying to listen, you know!
Then how about this? Make a simple wager with me. If you win, you don't have to say it. Deal?
That'll totally force me to talk! Are you still sore about the manga remark?
That was supposed to be a compliment... Urgh...
Ahaha, what a pitiable girl...
Special Events[]
Potential of Talent[]
What are some ideas you have for unlocking new potential in your talent?
Potential means little to me. I have more important things on my mind... To reside in a castle, waited on by handsome vampires. This is my dream, my raison detre.
Chiaki, do you have an opinion of me?
I'm not sure if I'd call it an opinion, but I do admire you for having such a concrete dream.
It certainly provides my life with order. With a clear goal, it's well worth taking gambles.
I don't have any goals like that... I can't even imagine a new potential in me. Maybe I should try thinking up a concrete goal like you.
Surely that would be of benefit. I would imagine you're good at setting and clearing quotas.
True... If I think of it like achievements, it might be easier for me to manage. In which case, having 10 or even 20 goals wouldn't be enough. Okay then, time to think up more!
I quite unexpectedly ended up helping someone else...
Would you please refrain from the glares, Toko?
Wh-What, did I do something wrong? Have I polluted you from eye contact alone?
I wouldn't go that far, no. But I am curious as to why you're giving me the evil eye.
I was just impressed. Impressed with how self-centered your entire life is. They say our talents are for the hope of humanity, but what hope is there in a greedy gambler?
You complain about the lives of others, but isn't it more wasteful to live a life without a dream?
E-Even I have dreams. Dreams of a life of love with Byakuya...
Is that not a self-centered dream as well? Byakuya hasn't even agreed to it.
That's none of your concern!
I'm not judging you. That's simply how dreams and aspirations are. Simply because you have a talent doesn't mean you must live your life for the sake of others. Those who desire that manner of life are more than welcome to live it.
I mean, there are those who actually strive to change society itself too.
That's correct. And if I were to get involved, I would surely end up stealing their goals.
*sigh* That's really saying something...
Toko seems rather taken aback, but I paid her no mind.
What business does a Monokuma have with me?
Heeey hey hey, that ain't nice! I'm the bear who just don't care, Kurokuma! What, do all bears look the same to you? Well sear my luxurious image into your retinas!
Your manner of speaking and gaudy decorations haven't the slightest bit of aesthetic coherence.
Now *that's* harsh! I'm the police, and I'm gonna shoot ya right in your stylin' outlaw heart! Just fuckin' with ya, the police part was a bear joke. We oughta get along as fellow outlaws!
I'm deeply offended. To think the day would come when a bear would mistake me for his own...
You clearly have an abundance of spare time. Why not go play with your fellow bears?
Don't be that way! Who else am I gonna reminisce about rollin' them bones with?
So it was a summer night in a casino in Vegas, and every penny I had was eaten by this slot machine--
Anyway, I've made plans, so I'll be taking my leave.
Hey, waaait! I haven't even gotten to the good part yet, Miss Stylish Gambler!
A strange being has taken a liking to me...
Summer Festival[]
There's a festival happening soon where you can try things unrelated to your talent. I have been chosen to run a drink stall with Kaede and Aoi, and we're working on the menu.
We can't offer Japanese milk tea? My, that is quite unfortunate.
I'll leave everything to Kaede.
Aww, really? I was hoping we could brainstorm ideas together, Celeste.
I will, of course, stay here until everything is decided--as your taste tester.
So I come up with drink ideas, you taste them, then we discuss what works and what doesn't?
Isn't that just me being your maid? Or, well, me taking over Hifumi's job.
Normally, I only drink milk tea. This is quite the compromise, if I do say so myself.
I begrudgingly sipped Kaede's sample drinks.
I will see what Teruteru has to say.
For a specialty drink shop, people are going to want things like boba teas and fresh smoothies.
I suppose you have a point. There are also the people who try things because they are unusual.
The beach hut has the "unusual" part down pat, but none of their drinks are very healthy...
...so you could make that your target audience. Go with something like fresh vegetable juice!
That was rather informative...and deeply distressing. You're speaking like a human.
How cruel! I'm just trying to help! But ooh la la do I love when you're cruel to me!
I ignored everything coming out of Teruteru's mouth and stole his ideas as my own!
Monokuma may have some unusual ideas.
You're a gambler through and through, Celeste. No one who values their life would come to me.
Asking for safe advice from safe individuals can only lead to dreadfully dull drinks.
I respect that courage. What about a drink that tastes absolutely *nothing* like it looks?
Orange drink, tastes like apple, super deadly. Cola-colored, tastes like water, ultra deadly.
The element of surprise is nice, but too much surprise cheapens the effect.
I reported Monokuma to the Monokubs so he couldn't suggest selling poison to anyone else!
Campfire[]
It's been a wild ride, but our time here is almost over. We're having a bonfire as a send-off!
At night, I needn't worry about the sun, so maybe I could take part in tonight's activities.
I'll have a milk tea, Hifumi.
Pardon? It would not go well with the food.
*sigh* Do you honestly think that's any concern? After how many years waiting on me?
You don't pay me enough to wait on you. But alas, I shall fetch you your tea, milady.
It's one of the last chances I have, anyway.
Do call me if you ever reincarnate into a sexy vampire. I'll save a room in my castle for you.
If I were given a choice, I would reincarnate into a pretty anime girl. They lead exciting lives.
I relished the comforting taste of Hifumi's tea.
Maybe I could erect my castle by the sea.
The waters at twilight are entrancing indeed--fearsome and black, yet fantastical, unearthly.
Beautiful beneath the moonlight but dreadful by night--the perfect location for a castle.
Kehehe. We have not spoken as much as I would like, yet I feel we would get along well, Celeste.
Although I fear...my sister would not take as much of a liking to you.
*sigh* I have little interest in your sister or whether she would like me either.
We passed time together gazing out at the sea.
I would much prefer candles to a raging bonfire.
Oh, I've made candles before. Some real spooky ones that look like human skulls!
Skull-shaped candles can be quite charming, depending on how they're designed.
If bones aren't enough, what do I have to do to gross you out? Intestine candles?
I imagine there are plenty who would appreciate that, though I do not count myself among them.
It's messed up that there are people as tasteless as me out there, just living their lives.
Maybe there's some way I can get my creations out where they can see them.
You needn't look far to find someone willing to admire your skull candles, at least.
I bonded with a very curious artist.
With Swimsuits[]
Event triggered when playing Development Mode using an S Rank or UR Rank card.
With Swimsuits
Girl, do you *ever* put the umbrella down? Do you not, like, want to go for a swim?
I despise getting wet. Relaxing on the beach in unparalleled elegance is all I need. And, virtual world or otherwise, I cannot bear to allow myself to tan.
Ahh, I feel you there. Getting my face wet is just asking for trouble.
The other day, I went swimming wearing non-waterproof mascara. Total disaster.
Must be tough being so fugly you gotta wear a fuckin' fake face! I'm so hot l wouldn't know!
Who are you calling fake!? Get off your damn high horse, you've never even *tried* makeup!
Sorry, I can't hear you through the six fuckin' inches of foundation on your face!
Y-You act like I have a choice--
I mean, no, I do. I choose to look like this.
*sigh* The insects certainly are noisy today. One of the few downsides of a tropical climate.
Scuse me!? Who you callin' an insect!?
Do you hear something buzzing, Junko? Oh how I wish it would buzz off.
Huh? O-Oh, yeah.
G-Grah, you goddamn braindead whore...you can't just ignore me every time I hit a nerve!
Yo, shriveled lips! Forget hanging with that worthless loser and hang with a real hottie!
Mm, I dunno. I mean, like, I wasn't ever hanging out with Celeste to begin with.
Bullshit! heard you sticky-faced girls stickily telling each other your sticky stories!
Oh my *god*. Do you want to hang out with us?
Fuck no! A true genius would never be caught mingling with a bunch of posers!
The bugs are getting worse. Perhaps I should inform Hiyoko and have her squish them all.
I wouldn't wanna hang with either of you, TBH.
My Future...[]
Event triggered when playing Development Mode using a UR Rank card. Requires the player to have seen all other Friendship events during the run.
My Future...
Ah, I could live off of this special deluxe gyoza. It seems even the Monokubs have their merits.
In a way, you're really impressive, Celeste.
My, what is this all of a sudden? Flattery won't get you any of my gyoza, you know.
Gyoza is ugly anyway! No thanks! I'll stick with my shaved ice with extra condensed milk!
But it's carefree exchanges like this that make it so hard to believe this field trip is almost over.
Most of the others are doing their assignments, sorting out their feelings, doing other stuff...
But you're the same as always. I want to grow up to be just like you.
I understand the point of this camp, but I don't think there are any new efforts to be made.
I already have a solid dream that I advance toward at all times.
No other student's heart is as filled with hope as great as mine. I can say that much confidently.
So even without doing anything special, you'll obtain a Hope Fragment... Is that the idea?
Indeed. Of that I am certain.
Wow...you really *are* amazing. But you'd kill the mood of any tea party, so I'd never invite you.
I don't mind. It's not like I'd want to be invited anyway.
All you Ultimates are so weird. I knew that from the moment I met the writing prodigy.
Won't you eventually be joining that weird group?
Nope! Us kids are going to die pure, long before we turn into adults.
You can go on living without becoming adults. I intend to live forever in this form, you know.
Are you playing pretend? I'm pretty good at that too.
You want to live with vampires, right? Monaca said so.
Oh my... She spoke of my dream to others? That girl is a troublesome one.
I can understand not aging then. No normal human would live among vampires, after all.
Exactly. I won't age a day, and I'll live forever, closed off from time and the outside.
Sign me up! I want to stay how I am forever too!
Appearances in Special Events for Other Characters[]
Potential of Talent[]
There are people who choose their own identities. (Imposter)
New potential, you say... I feel that by revealing my true identity and talent to my classmates... and being accepted by them in turn has allowed me to see it in an all new light. There are people who choose their own identities..
Why hello there, "Byakuya."
I have some questions for you, if you don't mind.
I haven't the slightest idea what ever you could want from me.
How are you able to live so...nonchalantly with a false name, false history, everything?
Now, what ever gave you that idea? I haven't falsified a thing. I am Celestia Ludenberg, daughter of a French nobleman and a German musician.
I have no other identity, and why should I be ashamed of who I am?
You're a curious one. I'm almost envious.
I am utterly aghast that you would interrupt my teatime with your rude, incoherent prattle.
Were I in the throes of an underground gamble, I would squeeze you for every yen you're worth.
I didn't mean to insult you. I simply admire the tenacity you have that allows you to live true to yourself.
I'm once again happy I chose to come here, where everyone has their own way of living.
I'm gonna take a nap on the beach! (Kotoko Utsugi)
People are always wanting the old me... Frankly, I've had about enough of it. So this is basically a vacation to me! I'm going to have a blast away from all the grownups! I'm gonna take a nap on the beach!
Ahh, what fine weather! Even if this is about as cliche an island as you can get!
And thanks to that, I'm gonna get in some napping time! Are you into naps too?
Frolicking around on the beach isn't in my nature, after all. And if changes in this world affect our bodies in reality...
I wouldn't want to risk getting a tan. I'll never stray from my parasol.
I see, so you're super self-conscious.
There was a time when I wasn't allowed to get a tan either! But now, that's all in the past.
Ooh, now that I can do as I please, getting a nice deep tan sounds kinda nice!
Do as you please. However...if you must be so loud, could you do so a distance away?
Look, I can see your friend out at sea that way. Why not go for a swim yourself?
Nah, I'm sticking with my nap idea. Besides, Masaru has unlimited energy.
Speaking of which, there's unlimited food in this world, right? Twist a faucet and honey comes out... Tap a pocket and biscuits multiply like crazy...
The sky's the limit in an imaginary world! Also, also...
*sigh* If you intend to nap, might I suggest shutting that mouth closed first?
I spoke my mind, and the super self-conscious girl got fed up with me...
Celestia wants something from me? That's odd. (Rantaro Amami)
New potential... I haven't even achieved my first goal yet. Isn't it a little too early for that?
While I stood there being indecisive, a classmate approached me... Celestia wants something from me? That's odd.
I've run into something of a snag in achieving my own dream. I thought perhaps you could help, Rantaro, since you're so well traveled.
Oh yeah? I'll help if I'm able, absolutely. What's the issue?
I simply don't have enough handsome men.
Handsome men?
My dream is to live my everyday life in a castle, waited on day and night by handsome vampires. But there aren't enough men out there who are fit to serve me. I may never realize my dream...
I was hoping you could introduce me to any candidates you've met on your travels.
Haha, can't say I was expecting this. Have I ever met anyone who'd be suited to serving Celestia?
I thought back on all those I've met on my travels and re-discovered my priceless experiences!
Summer Festival[]
Tako! Lemme shine on ya! (Akane Owari)
I'm supposed to open a stall, but I've got nothin' to sell, so I'm a shoe shine... We're free to spend the money we make on whatever, yeah? I'ma blow it all on FOOD! Tako! Lemme shine on ya!
...
Hey, don't ignore me! Wait, or was it Taebo...
Would you happen to be talking to me? My name is Celestia Ludenberg.
Right, that! Have a seat and I'll get those babies shinin' in no time.
Please do, but...can you promise me you'll handle them with care? I'm quite fond of them.
I made Celeste's shoes sparkle!
Can you hold down the fort, Celeste? (Kaede Akamatsu)
Me, Hina, and Celeste are operating a drink stand, but we've run into a bit of a problem! I never expected we'd totally sell out. I'm glad it's doing well, but...what now? Can you hold down the fort, Celeste?
Going on a shopping trip? I hardly mind, but...
What if we have a customer while you're out? Shall I ask them to wait?
Would you? Oh, that would be wonderful. I'd like to get everyone who comes by a drink.
When I returned from my supply run, Celeste was stalling for time by gambling with visitors.
Campfire[]
I'll ask someone with a strong aesthetic sense. (K1-B0)
A folk dance, hmm. I have no experience, so maybe this is as good a chance as any to try it out. I'll ask someone with a strong aesthetic sense.
How did you like my dance!?
It was not to my taste at all.
Never mind your preferences. How was the dance, objectively?
I don't know much about the robot, but you performed it adequately enough, I believe.
*sigh* Is that all you needed? I would like to return to my room.
If you insist on learning how to do a folk dance, I suggest you speak with Miu or Kazuichi.
So they can alter my inner workings and program the skill into me, you mean?
It seems like an appropriate use of your talents--you are the Ultimate Robot, after all.
You're right. That would be the easy way out.
Folk dancing is neither an essential function nor something I feel deeply compelled to achieve.
As such, I would like to do it as I am now, rather than taking such drastic measures.
So it's like when I play poker without money on the table--it's a simple game.
A game? Hmm. Perhaps you're right.
I joined the folk dance and played with everyone!
Such rituals were often dedicated to gods of fire. (Korekiyo Shinguji)
Bonfires have a very long and storied history of use in rituals all across the world. Such rituals were often dedicated to gods of fire.
She who assumed the role of the god would light the blaze and oversee the ritual.
Gods of fire, you say?
My, have I caught your attention?
Not in the slightest. My eyes are drawn to the beautiful waters rather than the ephemeral flames.
I wonder if that suggests something regarding my previous life.
If reincarnation truly does exist, I have no doubt my sister and I have been siblings in every life.
Gazing at the bonfire, we pondered our past lives.
I'll exchange words with a tasteful gambler! (Kurokuma)
This is the night I've been waiting for... I'm gonna charm the pants off of everyone! I'll exchange words with a tasteful gambler!
Could you maintain a comfortable distance? I have no interest in wasting my time.
Hey now, you could at least try to be friendly! We're both back in black--we oughta get along!
*sigh* I told you...
Don't you get fuckin' near me, you little shit that scurried its way out of the goddamn sewer!
Gyaaahahaha! So that's your true form! Hell yeah, I've been waiting for this moment!
I was arguing with an infuriated Celeste, but Monaca put me on silent mode...
You of all people should understand thrills. (Monokuma)
Ghost stories, naughty stories, folk dancing... How easily they're amused by meager pleasures. You of all people should understand thrills.
Oh? Because I'm a gambler?
Thrill and gambling go hand-in-hand, true. But for me, winning is the natural outcome...
Matches seldom do little to stir my emotions, though I am happy to inch closer to my dream.
Welp, guess I chose the wrong person to talk to! I dunno how you can say that with a straight face.
Suuure, put on the cool act, but I wanted to present you with the greatest thrill of all.
Luck would play no part--you'd get all the tension, excitement, and despair of possibly losing it all.
I don't recall asking for such a thing. Forcing gifts on others will get you nowhere, you know.
Even now, I'm compelled to present the greatest of games...
I've got gyoza curry here too, Celeste. (Teruteru Hanamura)
How utterly sacrilegious. I will have a plate.
I designed this recipe just for you. You'll fall for me all over again after tasting it!
Might I suggest you retake grade-school grammar? "Again" suggests I've fallen for you before.
Yeowch. Well, I know you're hot for my gyoza.
It was never in my repertoire until I met you, and now I've made it more times than I can count.
I wish your personality could improve as much as your phenomenal gyoza-making skills.
Celeste asked for seconds!
With Swimsuits[]
With Swimsuits (Hifumi Yamada)
Sacrebleu! What a sight!
Alas, not even the great connoisseur of eros can withstand the appeal of this body.
Your body's nothing new. But that swimsuit, now that's a piece of art.
You, good sir, are a man of the finest taste! This is the only Piggles swimsuit of its kind!
Look closer! The art is of my own creation. And I made it for free thanks to this wondrous camp!
I can't quite tell with how stretched out it is, but the girth of your love is plain as day.
You can tell? Now, you must know that this art is based on Piggles' design in season two of--
You there, blabbering on nonsensically, I have a small request for you.
After your usual milk tea, mayhap? The sun beats down far too hard for tea, milady.
Hifumi... Clear all that horrendous anime from your ridiculous head and recall: iced milk tea.
Oh, right. That. Shall I make you some then?
Can I offer you some cookies to go with your tea? I baked too many and they need eating.
You're rather sharp for a talking pig, Teruteru.
Oink oiink!
What can I say...but yikes.
I'm shocked. Utterly appalled. I thought you would have my back, Hifumi.
Nay. Two dimensions is where I draw the line.
My, what a lively couple of pigs we have here.
Ah, yes! I'll be back in a flash!
My Future...[]
My Future... (Kaede Akamatsu)
Yup... It's about time.
Huh? Is that...
Kaede's piano, right? Where's it coming from?
Ah, remember when Kurokuma did a radio show?
The one with the Monokubs? Is this the same mechanism?
Impressive! You are correct. Tonight is special.
My piano will play throughout the island.
I considered a recital so everyone could witness my performance directly, but...
I've done that countless times already and wanted to try something new.
It's an elegant sound without being too imposing, so it should make for good background music.
It would be quite nice while gambling or enjoying teatime.
I bet it would be nice sleepy-time music too. It's nice and relaxing.
Her performances are incredible, so it feels natural to focus and listen to those...
But hearing it this way is great too. I can practically feel the notes permeating in my chest.
I'm glad you all like it. I was worried everyone would get irked if it suddenly played everywhere.
It would be suitable to play in my castle. I shall consider purchasing a sound system.
I'd be thrilled if my piano became a part of your everyday life!
Personally, I'd like to see the expressions of people as they listen...
But it's not like I could play piano in your home forever.
That is true. Though if you were a handsome man suiting my tastes, I'd ask you to do so.
Monopolizing someone as talented as Kaede would be the epitome of extravagance.
I love playing for individuals too, so please don't hesitate to invite me.
Up to now I've been asked to perform at birthday parties and relatives' weddings, after all.
Very well. Once my castle is complete, I shall have you perform for my handsome servants.
Once I complete my goals, I'd like for you to play for me too.
Yeah, sure thing. It would be my pleasure!
Count me in too then. My family needs to hear your piano, Kaede.
Sounds great! I'll be waiting eagerly for the invite.
Even if we all part ways after graduation, I'll be happy if my music remained in everyone's heart.
My Future... (Teruteru Hanamura)
It'll soon be farewell to this restaurant and beach hut... Gotta say, I'm gonna miss it.
Once I have a bit of leeway, it'd be nice to make my second location a seaside restaurant.
Ooh, seafood!? Gimme a ring when you open it! I like meat best, but your fish is darn good too!
I'm honored to hear that! You'll be the first on my V.I.P. list, Akane.
Thanks to this island, my ambitions grew richer. I cooked, and at times had others cook for me...
And I got an eyeful of *oh* so many swimsuits! I doubt any student is more fulfilled than me!
Teruteru...how many times must Tenko throw you before you learn your lesson?
Thrown by Tenko, then nursed by Mikan... But a dash of spice for my daily life.
Yeah, I'm sure you enjoyed this field trip, ya freakin' creep.
Oho, that cold glare is a treat in itself!
Hmm, his positivity might be the strongest of us all. Not that I'm envious in the slightest.
Positivity is nourishment for the soul. As a chef, nourishment is important.
Out of context, that sounds pretty nice.
Feel free to pick out a good part of me to eat up, mon amie!
I've never wished Miu was here more so the two resident perverts could talk it out together.
But God help whoever has to listen to *that* conversation...
Mhmhm... What a fascinating spectrum of thoughts you all have about me...
And yet you'll never turn down my cooking. Such is the power of food.
Urgh... He's gone straight for my weakness. His super-deluxe supporter color parfait is too good!
His cooking *is* the bomb, that is true. So good that nothing else really matters!
No matter how much he grosses us out, we still come back to eat his cooking every damn day.
So, who wants seconds? If there's anything particular you fancy, I'll consider adding it.
Meat! Gimme *meat*!
Um...could you make me a lunch plate in my favorite color?
Screw it. I'll have seconds of the same.
I'd like some snacks that go along with this royal milk tea, please.
Leave everything to me! By the time you're done, you'll all practically be chained to me!
