A little fox who could speak human language held up its fluffy paw and introduced itself.

"Saniwa, please choose the initial sword you like best."

"Then I'll take him," said the young man with a pipe, sounding unconcerned.

The speechless Kitsunezuki: You can't choose the one you brought with you! Ichimonji isn't an initial sword!

-

After Mr. Hijikata became a Saniwa, Kiku Ichimonji, who couldn't successfully take human form, always served as his attendant.

Yasunori never understood. Okita-kun's favorite swords should be him and Kiyomitsu! So why did Mr. Hijikata keep bringing along the detestable Kiku Ichimonji after he came to the Honmaru?

It wasn't until that young man was awakened from his sword that he understood. Beneath the fluttering cherry blossoms, the familiar pale blue haori and gentle smile were as dazzling as the first time they met.

The Okita Team: Aaaaaah!

-

The Shinsengumi's Demon Vice-Captain: "Let's trade, Toshizo-dono! Please! I'll pay a year's worth of mayonnaise as compensation!"

Okita-kun: "???"

After finding out that Okita-kun and Mr. Hijikata in another world were dating, Okita-kun felt seriously screwed over.

-

[Can the crappy Temporal Government please do something? The Hijikata Team at my Honmaru is always peeking over the wall to watch someone else's Mr. Hijikata!]

[I've had it! My Yasunori has filled the whole house with Okita-kun's autographs!]

The Temporal Government hired special Saniwa to handle all sorts of difficult problems, not to be buried in a mountain of complaint letters.

The Temporal Government was on its knees. "Mr. Hijikata, if you could just..."

And so, one day, a strange neighbor moved in next door to the Armed Detective Agency in Yokohama.

Blurb for the advance title

Totsuka Tatara, Mori Ougai's adopted son, a middle manager in the Port Mafia, and the Mafia member who least resembles a Mafia member.

He was considerate and gentle, always doing good deeds from childhood (not really).

For example, he painfully destroyed his adoptive father's collection of lolita drawings to save him from going astray.

Mr. Mori: Thank you so much.

For example, he saved his childhood friend several times after he accidentally drank a poisonous potion and nearly died.

Dazai: Thank you so much.

For example, he looked out for his colleague who wasn't growing tall during his growth spurt and made him drink milk every night.

Chuuya: Thank you so much.

For example, he cared about his friend's health and helped his poor blind friend stay healthy by cutting out sugar.

5t5: Thank you so much.

For example, he borrowed sunglasses from one friend and gave them to a high school classmate who was insecure about his small eyes.

Suguru: Thank you so much.

Everyone in Homra was deeply moved. Totsuka-san was such a good person, nothing like a Mafia member at all!

Kusanagi: ...Are you sure little Totsuka is an angel? He only acts sweet in front of Mikoto.

The Red King, having tamed the demon king, walked by with his strawberry milk, keeping his contribution to himself.

Theme: Work hard to create a brighter future.
