Mari Ep. 23: At the Aquarium with Mari and Shioriko
What kind of training does Mari do to pull off great performances? You head over with Shioriko to see Mari with high hopes, but where does she end up taking you?
Mari
Today you're gonna have fun with me at Mito Sea!
Mari
You two have come all the way here so I gotta make sure we make some fun memories for you! Come on! The ticket window is over here!
Shioriko
Um… So does this mean I will be learning how to give a good performance…at the aquarium?
Player
I-I'm sure she's got some kind of plan! Let's go, Shioriko!
[Fade in/out.]
Player
It's a walrus! And it's huge!
Shioriko
Indeed, it is. I can't believe I get to see it so up close.
Mari
Its scraggly whiskers are just so cute! Oh, we locked eyes! Hello, little walrus! How are you?
Shioriko
I don't think it understands what you're saying…
[Fade in/out.]
Mari
Here's the section where they display all the fishies.
Shioriko
Wow! This is a massive viewing tank and it's filled with all sorts of fish!
Mari
It gets you all excited because it's like you're getting a peek inside the ocean, right? Can you tell which breeds of fish are in here?
Player
Um, uh…
Shioriko
There's a panel here with information about the fish, including their names. It's quite informative.
Mari
Nooo! You can't look at that, Shioriko! That's cheating!
[Fade in/out.]
Mari
Here's our next spot. It's one of the recommended attractions at this aquarium—the jellyfish kaleidoscope!
Shioriko
I see that it's a water tank filled with only jellyfish, just as its name suggests. It's also lit up and looks absolutely stunning.
Player
Watching the jellyfish sure is relaxing.
Mari
The way they sway and float is so soothing. I wish I could set up a jellyfish tank at home.

Shioriko
There's a dolphin statue here. The view is great and I'm sure that it would make for an excellent photo opportunity.
Mari
Let's take a photo to remember the moment! Okay, you two, smile!
Option 1: “Is my pose all blurry?” |
---|
Player Yaaay! Wait, is my pose all blurry? Mari BAHAHAHAHAHA! You're all blurry and your eyes are half-open! |
Option 2: “You snapped the shot too quickly!” |
Player M-Mari! You snapped the shot too quickly! I totally wasn't ready at all. Mari There's nothing wrong with that! I snapped a candid photo of you. |
Shioriko
*Giggle*
Mari
Are you having fun, Shioriko?
Shioriko
Yes. I was confused at first, but I'm sure that learning about the environment Mari was brought up in and where she spent her time will be beneficial to me.
Mari
You really are always so serious, Shioriko. That's precisely why…
Shioriko
Precisely why what?
Mari
Never mind, it's nothing. Let's go see the penguins next! Oh, but first! The dolphin show!
