New Year, New Dreams Ep. 5

Ayumu

There, that should do it.

Mia

So you tie it to a tree as soon as you read what's inside? Japanese culture sure is interesting. But does it have to be a tree?

Rina

Hmm, I've never thought about it before. I'll have to look that up sometime.

Kotori

All right, we tied up our fortunes, so we should be good now.

Yoshiko

Do you really think so?

Hanamaru

Yoshiko?

Yoshiko

I mean, I know I got my fortune slip back, but I also ended up getting pecked by that hawk. I don't think my bad luck will change this year either…

Ayumu

Haven't you ever heard that thing about seeing Mt. Fuji, hawks, or eggplants in your first dream of the year?

Yoshiko

You mean how seeing those things in your dream will bring you good luck?

Ayumu

Yep, that's the one. Think about it. We saw Mt. Fuji in Uchiura and picked up an eggplant on the stairs to the shrine, right?

Ayumu

And now we just saw a hawk. It's gotta be super rare to run into so many lucky things like this.

Ayumu

So I bet this year will turn out to be a really, really good one.

Hanamaru

That's right, zura! I know you got pecked at, but it's only because of that hawk that we got your fortune slip back!

Rina

I mean, not many people can say a hawk ever helped them out. More good things are bound to happen from here on.

Yoshiko

You guys…

Mia

Hey, how about enhancing our luck with some sort of item? I heard they sell things at the shrine that bring you luck.

Kotori

That's not a bad idea. If you carry something like a charm around with you, I bet your luck'll get better. Let's go check them out.

Yoshiko

Yeah! That's just the thing I need to boost my fallen angel powers. Let's get going!

[Fade in/out.]

Yoshiko

This will surely bring me luck! Come on, now I can take on anyone or anything from anywhere!

Mia

Whoa, what is that?! It looks so cool!

Yoshiko

It's a ceremonial arrow! They say these have the power to defeat evil spirits that bring calamity and misfortune!

Yoshiko

Mwahaha. The great Yohane shall be slaying evil spirits this year!

Hanamaru

Hey, Yoshiko, how about pairing that with this charm as well, zura? It says this one brings you good luck.

Yoshiko

Nice! It has a cool design and everything. I'll buy that one too!

Ayumu

I wanna get this charm for my best friend!

Kotori

I think I'll also buy charms for Honoka and Umi.

Rina

Check it out, you guys. The line for paying homage at the shrine has gotten shorter.

Yoshiko

It sure has! It looks like my luck may have changed already!

Yoshiko

Come on everyone, now's our chance to get in line while I'm exorcising the evil spirits! Let's line up!
