■Full comment from Shimono Hiro

I am Shimono Hiro, and I will be playing Taketo!

Taketo begins to tend the store with Ilulu, but he is interested in Ilulu at all times and often has bloody nose by imagining many things, although he reacts coldly; in other words, he is in the middle of puberty!

Please watch how he is going to interact with Ilulu while grinning!
