No one can figure out how to get back to Tokyo, so the party is starting to adapt to living in Edo.
Otter: Take that!
Otter scales fish!
Otter: Otter special edomae sushi, order up!
Otter gives MC some sushi that's 3x bigger than Tokyo sushi.
MC: omg / nice! / I see you stopped the fishmonger schtick
Otter: Selling sushi makes better money! Have some, it's good!
MC: You gave up, huh / one order of petting, Boss!
(AB) Otter: No, but I can't think of anything else...
(C) Otter: Okay, while no one else is here! ...aww, I miss Tokyo. Think Nobumichi is worried about us?
Otter: Why'd I have to fall down the well!? I wanna have a Christmas party but that's anachronistic here, waah! ...oh yeah, Ulaanbaatar and Ringring came by yesterday. Ulaan's actually cool when he does real work.
MC: Yeah / he's gonna steal your customers / he came to watch one of our kabuki shows the other day
---
(A) Otter: Heheh, I like how he is slacking off too.
(B) Otter: OH NO MY POPULARITY
---
Otter: Horus came by too. He bragged about getting a big arrest. Always meant to be a policeman, huh? Kinda glad, kinda sad about how he's doing.
MC: Wow! / what do you mean, kinda? / he keeps coming to watch me every day
(B) Otter: He has Gouryou instead of me here. I wish that were me...don't tell them that.
(C) Otter: You know how he is around you~
Otter: How is everyone in the party so awesome at being time travel isekai'd!? HAX! I only have my kyute fur...
MC: it's kinda cute how you believe in that / wait what about me
---
(C) Otter: Well SOMEBODY has to be on my side!
---
Otter: I'm glad you're here while we wait for whatever. Come again, I'll be even better!
MC: Okay! / Boss, fluff! / I'll come petting again!
(AC) Otter: Cool! See ya!
(B) Otter: Okay!
Later
Otter: I'm back, Boss!
Hmm, something happening in Gorozaemon's manor tonight.
Red: Boss I can't stands no more!
Purple: Yeah! They killed blood who was going out with that totally a human Koun!
The failed escape is turning into a powder keg!
Otter: Oh no, what do we do Boss!?
Gorozaemon: Welp, this ain't gonna just blow over. A direct approach would be stupid, so...Sandayu!
Sandayu: Ayo, what crazy shit are you puttin' me up to now?
Gorozaemon: Give the underlings the blood they want by killing that one human so they won't start a bloodbath themselves.
Sandayu disappears.
Blue: Boss, let us go too!
Gorozaemon: No blockhead, humans outnumber us and you aren't THAT strong.
Green: But we big and strong! Also we have new strong friend!
Gorozaemon: What? Who?
Green: Look!
Gouryou: ...uh, hi?
Otter: (WHAT)
Green: He, youkai Inosasaou, taught us Military Tactics! He help us win!
Gorozaemon: Well if he did, then I guess??? Hey wait, where'd he go?
Later
Otter chibified Gouryou and ran out with him.
Otter: Since when were you a youkai!?
Gouryou: I dunno! They just called me that and I played along because that seemed safer! I mean, story goes that Inosasaou's a youkai that was a monk cursed by a pig and hey that sounds familiar. It was kinda nice how they looked up to me.
Otter starts shaking Gouryou.
Gouryou: STOP NO SHAKE BABY
Otter: I coulda given you that attention then! Why'd you make a race war more likely!?
Gouryou: I always was the type to trip when people compliment me, sorry. My guildmaster says that a lot.
Otter: ...I guess this all was gonna happen anyways.
Gouryou: Welp, spilt milk and all that. How about we go back and have a meeting with everyone?
Otter: Shut up, pot!
Later
Who ordered a random kabuki play~?
Oniwaka: Lord Yoshitsune, we got ghosts with beef against you and your family!
MC: Follow my lead!
Oniwaka: I was trying to tell you to stay back, but I guess that's just how you roll.
Fight fight fight!
Oniwaka: Life's a mess, but it's cool if it's with you!
Curtain time!
Goemon: Cliffhanger time! Come back next show!
Later
Goemon: Whoa, we made bank today! It's cool how you two synch up so well so fast!
Oniwaka: W-whatever. Weird how good we work together.
MC: Keep it coming / Am I a genius? / I'm used to working with you
Goemon: Well whatever works! My treat tonight!
Suddenly onis show up!
Goemon: What?
Oni A: Go away, we're here for them.
MC: Me!? / wrong person / what'd I do?
Goemon: No can do. That's my star.
Oniwaka: MC, run on our signal and don't look back.
MC: No!
Oniwaka: You have to go before more hitmen show up. Go, for our sakes and yours.
Oni B: Race traitors!
Oniwaka: NOW
MC: (runs)
Goemon and Oniwaka smile wryly.
Goemon: I always knew this was coming.
Oniwaka: Our fault for not saying anything after figuring out MC's deal. Anyways, we gotta live. We're supposed to be the best kabuki troupe ever, right?
Goemon: Yep. Behold, for I am Shukaku!
Meanwhile
The shogunate is under attack! And Horus since he's working for them.
Horus: Snow? Cold night.
Oni A: Hold still so I can kill you quick!
Horus: Is this it? You think you have enough people to win against me?
Oni A: We have Inosasaou's tricks to use!
Horus: What? No, it's probably a mistake on my end. (Hmm. I can immediately win if I use my artifact, but should I in this time?)
Dramatic arrival!
Otter: Hi guys, that's my boss there.
Ninja B: Move aside or die with him!
Otter: Bold of you to think you can win.
Horus/Otter AR!
Otter: Boss Horus I am here to help! Miss me?
Horus: I'm fine, but good of you to come running so fast.
Otter: Come at me bros!
Ninja B: Get them!
Horus: Otter, you can handle this so I don't have to pull my artifact, right?
Otter: I got this!
BATTLE START (more happens after)
Ninja B: GET THEM
Youkai used Shuriken Toss! The shuriken poof into smoke! It wasn't very effective...
Ninja B: Otter sorcery!?!?!?
Otter: My sword shrinks anything it touches! Your throwing star is lego sized now.
Horus and Otter KO a bunch of youkai!
Otter: Easy peasy!
Horus: Stop getting ahead of yourself and hurry on.
Otter: Uh, where to?
Horus: To Uncle! Bad feelings!
Elsewhere
MC: THEY'RE STILL CHASING ME
MC is running through Edo!
Green: DIE
MC: Why's everyone after me!? Is my role--
???: MC, over here!
Someone pulls MC into some house!
Gouryou: Stay here for now. Horus and whoever should be coming to help soon.
MC: I was so scared! / You know something? / Thanks, love you!
---
(AC) Gouryou: Ooh, side benefits...wait
---
Gouryou: So the youkai are rebelling now and going after shogunate VIPs. The ones after you are--
Some Oni: Smell human? Smell good!
Gouryou: GET DOWN
Some Oni bashes the house down! Gouryou covers for MC!
Some Oni: Traitor! You die too, Inosasaou!
MC: What!?
Somewhere Else
Goemon: Damn, you're actually in this stupid thing?
Goemon is pretty beat up...
Sandayu: Yeah I side with stupid people more than people think I do. Anyways, where's that shogun MC?
Goemon: I'll never tell~
Sandayu: Youkai come from human fears, so humans and youkai don't mix well. Having to split sucks.
Broken House
Gouryou: Damn, you got a big part here in Edo. Like, shogun big. Went missing, had a body double take their place. A super youkai spy said so, so it must be true.
MC: The youkai are trying to do a political assassination!?
Some Oni: Yep. Now die!
Gouryou: I got him! Go run for Horus!
Some Oni: Too late!
Ninjas rush MC!
Gouryou: Body Block! OOF! Blood...
MC: OH NO
Gouryou: Still okay. Don't look like that, you'll waste your good looks.
The ninjas keep attacking! Gouryou can't really swing his artifact well...
Ninja: You die too then!
MC: NOOOO (swings sword)
Someone knocks the ninjas out first!
Tadatomo: Stop.
Gyoubu: You ever think about living a slower life, Milord?
Tadatomo: I apologize for being late, my lord!
Gyoubu: Let's go. You're the only one who can stop this, Milord.
