ENJOYYYOYSYYAYAAYYYY

,.,.,.,,wbabwa breaker thing.,,.,.,.,.

"Hey! Hey!! That Tetsu Fukui from 2-1 is fighting some guys in the hallway!"

"Dude, what?! Did a teacher break 'em up yet??"

"No!! C'mon, we can't miss this!"

The two boys scurried out of the classroom in a hurry. Some listeners also joined them on the way out, wanting to see the fight for themselves.

Eriko closed the notebook she was reading for class and stared out the doorway with a puzzled expression. "Did he just say..." she began.

Atsushi, whose table was on the right of her, leaned back on his chair with the same expression as his sister. "Tetsu Fukui...?" He finished the sentence for her.

The twins looked at eachother, wordlessly coming to an agreement. They closed their books and headed out their classroom.

The pristine hallways of Kirayaku, normally peaceful, were currently echoing with cheers and shouts of bystanding students. The twins quickened their steps the more loudly they heard the source of the racket. Some excited students raced past them along the way.

And when they turned a corner, there he was.

They couldn't see much because of the crowd, but what they could see was their new teammate for the Basementverse, Tetsu, effortlessly dodging some hunky boys punches and delivering some back to them in the process. One can tell from his stance and body movements that he was under no stress. Completely unbothered.

They could also catch a glimpse of a girl with braided hair standing in the midst of the brawl. She was visibly trembling.

More and more people pushed past Eriko and Atsushi, craving to see more. The two were quickly knocked into the back of the crowd.

Atsushi ruffled his hair in both anger and worry. "What the hell is he DOING??" he whined.

Eriko just attempted to sneak a peek, trying to figure out what happened for him to be beating up a bunch of other students. And what's that girl doing there in the middle of it...?

"Oh! Hirose twinsies!" A raven-haired boy pushes himself out of the crowd, waving at them. "Fancy seeing you two here! Though, I'm not surprised, given the commotion." He chuckled, making his way to stand next to them.

Eriko looked up at him. "Yutaka-kun... what happened here?" She questioned.

The boy waved his hand dismissively. "Oh, nothing much; these 1st years started harrassing their classmate, Fukui jumped in for her defense and now he's taking them all out like a champ!" His eyed lit up in realization, and he leaned in to whisper. "Speaking of which, aren't you two buddy-buddy with this guy?"

"Something like that..." Atsushi murmured.

"That's impressive, dude!" Yutaka lightly punched him in the arm. "I only ever see him in his classroom and nowhere else! I also heard rumors that he beats up bullies in private. Looks like that's true..." he bit onto his thumb, looking back at the obscured fight. "Sheesh, first-years too! Imagine spending your first half of your highschool years in stitches because of your senpai!"

Seeing that the twins don't feel like replying to him, Yutaka shrugs. "Well, whatever. I gotta study anyways,, see ya!" He speeds off, probably back into their classroom.

Switching focus, Tetsu is still easily beating up the first-years that tackled him down. He narrowly dodged a punch coming from the front, grabbed the guys arm and twisted it. "Nope, not good enough." He mutters while the latter guy lets out a pained yell. He throws him to the ground while two more come at him right after.

The cheers are ringing in his ears, which always annoys him. 'Do these people have anything better to do..??' He thinks irritably as he pins down the main instigator of the group. His small hands easily have his muscly arms in a tight grip.

"Wha- gh- what ARE you???" The hunky first-years voice is muffled by the floor as his face is squished into it while Tetsu sits on him.

"What am I?" Tetsu twists on his arm, earning struggling and growling from the first-year. "I'm just a second-year high school student with common sense." He simply said.

After the latter groaned in pain again, Tetsu exhaled slowly. He let go of the boys arms and got off of him. "And common sense includes teaching you brats a lesson." He said once he stood up.

"This guy is insane!" One of the other beaten up first-years rang out. "Let's go!"

One by one, the beaten boys run down the hallway, each of them passing by Tetsu. He made no effort to watch them run, he just stared out of his mind until it was just him, the girl and the crowd. The said crowds cheering became even louder, making the short boy flinch. Then the girl with the braided hair latched onto him.

"Thank you soooo much! I- I can't thank you enough! You were really cool.... can I repay you with a lunch-? Ah-" the girl was shaken off by him.

"If that is all, I'll be leaving now." Tetsu spoke, then started making his way down the hallway as well, trying to block out the crowds disappointed complaining.

The students slowly dispersed, everyone making their way back to their classrooms. The bell rung.

Only Atsushi and Eriko were left. Eriko lightly touched his arm, signaling him to get moving. "We'll talk to him during lunch." She added. Atsushi nodded.

And then came lunch time. Tetsu usually ate in the cafeteria, but after today, he'd much rather just be eating on the roof right now. And there he was, sitting on the cold concrete with a fancy bento box.

He felt peace and tranquility until he felt something cold on his forehead. Tetsu was resting a soda can on him, trying to get his attention. "You put on quite a show!" He remarked with a smirk.

"That was... really brutal." Eriko came up from the other side, her expression and tone more somber and serious.

Tetsu sucked the air through his teeth. "...why are you two here..?"

Atsushi glared at him, offended. "What, we can't eat together like the shadow-fighting team we are?"

"You're not here for Basementverse business. I can tell." Tetsu narrowed his eyes. He picked at his food with his chopsticks. "You're here to scold me or something."

The twins sat down on each of his sides, completely disregarding his personal space as they sat close to him like they were glued there. Tetsu grimaced even more. "...do you idiots not know what privacy means?" He gritted his teeth.

"Nope," Atsushi said.

"Never heard of it." Eriko smiled. "Look, we just wanna talk."

The short boy glanced at his food then back at Eriko then at Atsushi. He let out a big sigh. "Fine..... I have nothing to lose." He complied, shoving a mouthful of food into his mouth with his chopsticks. After he gulped it down, he spoke up again, not letting their gazes on him divert his attention from eating. "What do you wanna know?"

"Aren't you gonna get like..... y'know," Atsushi motioned with his hands, trying to find the right words. "...suspended?"

"Nope." Tetsu replied bluntly, leaning against the wall while continuing. "My parents have the principal wrapped around their fingertips. They won't get rid of me anytime soon." His tone carried a hint of bitterness behind it, which Eriko immediately caught upon.

She tilted her head. "So, in short, you can do whatever you want and not get in trouble for it..?" The question was slow and hesitant. Meanwhile, Atsushi grumbled something about being spoiled that the other two didn't catch onto.

The short boy looked down at his bento box, seeming to be in thought. "Essentially, yes." He eventually replied, but his stare just hardened. "To be clear, It's something I really hate having, but I can make use of it in something like this."

"Like the fact that you beat up a bunch of 1st years?" Atsushi cut straight to the point.

Tetsu faltered, but nodded. "I... have a really strong sense of justice, y'know. My parents say It's a huge problem of mine but I think It's just basic thinking."

"Your parents..." Eriko frowned.

"Frankly, I resent them. They only make me do work and school. I got nothing else going for me." He casually said. "They never let me have anything I can call my own, except.... this feeling in me. If I see someone in danger, I can't just watch it like an idiot. I have muscles for a reason." Tetsu squeezed at his arm. Atsushi curiously poked at his other arm with a shocked expression.

"How DID you even get these?"

Tetsu side-eyed him as if he just asked the dumbest question in history. "I carry iron around in the scorching sun 24/7. This was bound to happen." He then shifted his focus back to finishing up his lunch. "Sure, I'm apathetic, and I'm not good with words," He murmured. "But my resolve is still the same: I want to protect people. I think that's the kind of destiny I have. No one can change my mind about it."

The silence hung heavily around the trio. Tetsu blinked in confusion at both Atsushis impressed face and Erikos deep in thought expression, as if she was meditating. "...I literally just told you guys my life story, please say something-"

Eriko let out a hum of approval while her eyes were closed. She sprung up and turned to Tetsu with a confident smile. "So THIS is the source of your gutsiness..." She gave a thumbs up. "I like it!"

The two boys looked up at her, dumbfounded.

"Someone who uses his strength to protect others.. and won't let anything tear him down, no matter what.. that's the kind of teammate we need for fighting!" Eriko cheerfully said. "Your parents might say otherwise, but- your yearning for justice really makes you shine, Tetsu!"

The school bell started ringing. Atsushi got up as well, making his way to Erikos side with an empty soda can.

She scratched her cheek nervously. "I know you're already working with us, but... I'd like to make it official;" She extended her hand to him. "Will you fight with us in the Basementverse against the shadows, and protect the world?"

Tetsu stood up eyeing the two for a minute. He shrugged, his poker face loosening up a bit. "Sure," he took Erikos hand, giving her a firm handshake.

"Don't disappoint me, Hirose twins." He said with a half-smile.

Be me who have zero knowledge of P4D. Take a peek of the game with the knowledges of it's successors (P3D and P5D), seeing 2D potraits in story which I tolerate since it was the first game of it's kind, albeit with them have more shading which is looking nice, and then jumpscared by Yu talking, with voices, and his anime name. My rating for P4D is automatically ranked up above it's succesors by that alone, although I hope they do have 3D story since somehow it was nice seeing their gestures when talking (some seeing them bit more exaggerated but I like it since it giving them more charateristic and lives for those P3 and P5 gangs)

Oh seeing the comparison between P4 in native PS2 vs P4G in Golden which the latter actually downgrade in graphic due to some patented game engine in P4 made me scared of Reload-like remake of P4, like which graphical direction they will based on, like will they took P4 graphical decision since it's possible with UE now or they would take Golden one? I bit scared if they the latter since P3R have took more contents from P3P, albeit just the text dialogues tho... but still...
Hope we see great render of fogs and vibe match like P4 in PS2.
