Track 6[edit]
FX:* Christmas BGM*
Shouri: And so, 4 months have passed since that day. Today is CHRISTMAS EVE.
Murata: Summer training camp was super fun, right, oniichan? That CG is really hard to get! Everyone has difficulties making the choices that lead to that option, but yay! you got it so easily~! That's because you're great, oniichan~!
Shouri: Isn't that tone you're using, a little too friendly?
Murata: That's because my love stats went up~!
Shouri: Lower them! *grabs him * Lower them right now!
Murata: Eh?! Wai...! I can't breathe, oniichan! Stop grabbing me by the chest.
FX:*footsteps*
Wolfram: Hey! What are you doing here, newbie?
Shouri: Ah! The girl MANAGER.
FX:*Lets go of Murata*
Wolfram: Since we don't have practice, we won't be seeing each other today.
Shouri: And what about Yuu-chan... no... wait! Wait, Wolfram! You're wearing a red fur coat with a hood, furthermore... you're wearing a MINI-SKIRT and white OVER the KNEE SOCKS! Are you Santa? Are you a girl Santa?! Out of the blue BANZAI! This is absolutely something you cannot buy with money! They sure know what they're doing, huh!? The STAFF who made this game I mean!
Murata: Since the characters are wearing different clothes, when an 'event' occurs, you'll GET a CG with the characters wearing that, oniichan.
Shouri: This means... there will be a 'Christmas Event'[1]? Not bad...
Murata: What are we going to do, oniichan? If you prefer a different CHARACTER, we can wait and go by the school but...
Shouri: I'm also interested in Yuu-chan, but it's difficult to ignore her while she's wearing this outfit. All right! Wolfram, if you'd like, could we have DINNER today, just the two of us?
Wolfram: I can't. Today we're throwing a PARTY with Yuuri and the rest.
Shouri: Yuu-chan is going to be there too? In that case, that'd be like killing two birds with one stone... no, wait, I mean... can I go to that PARTY too?
Wolfram: You can't. Boys are not allowed.
Shouri: Don't say that! Aren't we all in the same baseball club? C'mon, invite me too!
Wolfram: Gn..! Nya...! I guess it can't be helped. But only if Yuuri agrees. Come now...
Shouri: Hooray! All right! Now I can raise the stats of either one !
Murata: Ah, that's amazing. In this way, you can raise the love stats of a CHARACTER whose love stats are low...
Shouri: Eh? Who is it?
Murata: You'll find out when you get there, oniichan. When that person arrives.
Shouri: Who could it be...? There aren't any other girls...
-- At the party --
FX: *door opens*
Wolfram: Hey, Yuuri! I'm back with the groceries.
Yuuri: Ah, thank you Wolf.
FX:*door closes*
Yuuri: Eh? Shouri?
Shouri: MERRY CHRISTMAS, Yuu-chan! Uwah ! Uwah~ Wai... that's... !!! Yuu-chan's also wearing a MINI-SKIRT Santa outfit, huh!? Yuu-chan's OVER the KNEE SOCKS have black and white stripes, huh? Ah, so cute! You two are so cute! You look dazzling!
Murata: Mm...ah... Hello? Oniichan? Your eyes are wandering.
Günter: Ah! Oniichan, you came! Come join us, come in and join us!
Shouri: Ah... so this was the person he was talking about...
Yuuri: Eh? Doctor, we were having a girls-only gathering...
Günter: Don't be so formal about it, Yuuri. Isn't a romantic rendezvous better than just a PARTY?
Yuuri:*sighs* Well, if the doctor says so...
Shouri: Yesss! Thank goodness I rose the school doctor's love stats!
Murata: So far, this event seems to have caused Dr. Günter's love stats to go way up and the stats of the other two girls to go up moderately, but... we're only just starting. I wonder if oniichan will get the event.
Shouri: Eh? What is it? What do you mean by that?
FX:*knock on the door*
Günter: Yes? Who is it? *opens the door* Oh! If it isn't coach Gwendal.
Shouri: The coach she said?
Gwendal: MERRY CHRISTMAS, Dr. Günter.
Günter: MERRY CHRISTMAS. And what brings you here?
Gwendal: I heard that there was a PARTY. This is the PRESENT that I brought...
Yuuri: Wah~! It's a cute knitted pig!
Gwendal: It's a bear-chan...
Wolfram: Did you knit it, coach?
Gwendal: That's right.
Shouri: Really? You knit?
Gwendal: I brought one for you too, oniichan. Here, this one's for you.
Shouri: For me!? And also, why is the coach calling me 'oniichan'....? Ah! No way... the love stats of the coach...
Murata: That's precisely right, oniichan! You got it! You GOT the knitted animal CG!
Gwendal: You were trying really hard during summer training camp, right? I admired your go-getter attitude. Even though you couldn't come to practice for an entire month due to your injuries, your progress during the summer was remarkable. It was exceptional, you improved more than anyone else. I'm sure that you'll become a wonderful player.
Shouri: I guess I understand how this happened...
Murata: If you keep raising his love stats, you'll get the coach ENDING, oniichan.
Shouri: Are you kidding me? Stop messing around! Wouldn't it be sad to get an ENDING with a man?!
Murata: It's okay. Since after this you'll have the 'Valentine's Event', this is the place where you can regulate how high the male love stats go.
Shouri: Oh! I see... I'm saved. But for starters, why is there even a coach-END?
Murata: Mmmh... well, wouldn't it be the type of ENDING you get when you only care about getting into the team?
Shouri: For a dating sim that would be a BAD-ENDING, right? I get it, I'll be careful.
FX:*knock on the door*
Shouri: Who is it?
FX:*opens the door*
Conrad: MERRY CHRISTMAS, Yuuri.
Yuuri: Ah, Conrad-senpai! You came!
Shouri: Hey!? What's going on intelligence operative!?
Murata: Eh?! He came? This is really a strange occurrence. It's very rare for this event to take place.
Wolfram: What's going on Yuuri? Why did this guy come?
Yuuri: Actually, yesterday, I talked a little bit about the party with senpai .
Wolfram: You....!
Yuuri: But Wolf, didn't you bring Shouri to the party?
Wolfram: Well, yes, but...
Shouri: I see... Since I asked her to invite me to the party, therefore choosing Wolf before Yuu-chan, Yuuri's love stats for Conrad went up, right?
Murata: Mmmh... I think that's not the only reason. It seems that this event will affect the conditions of the upcoming Valentine's event. I'm sure that something will happen during Valentine's, oniichan.
Shouri: Eh?! What is it?! What, what, what... hey, hey... don't be so enigmatic, tell me about it!
Murata: No, I can't. Otherwise I'll ruin the GAME. You have to find out yourself.
Shouri: What's up with that! I want to know!
Yuuri: Shouri...! Don't be so reserved, come here with us.
Shouri: Yeah, I'm coming, I'm coming! *runs to them*
Murata: With this he'll get the PARTY CG with everyone in it. You're doing great, oniichan. Hm! Valentine's Day will be fun!

- ↑ Christmas in Japan: As you can imagine, Christmas has no religious connotations in Japan. Christmas Eve is spent in one of two ways: If you have a family, you eat fried chicken (KFC preferably) and spend the evening with them and maybe some friends. After dinner you have Christmas Cake (yes, cake). If you're single, Christmas is... dun dun dun: DATE NIGHT! Also it's customary to put out during a 'Christmas date'. Probably because the gentleman will splurge on your Christmas gift, get you some diamonds or an expensive purse, and that's all Japanese women need to spread their legs.
Christmas date: In 1987, a magazine wrote an article about some chick waiting for her loved one for Christmas out in the cold. That's how the whole Christmas date thing started.
Christmas Cake: The Christmas cake tradition started in the 1990s. The story goes that some baker in Tokyo made too many cakes, and started selling them as "Christmas cakes". The idea took off, and now every convenience store, supermarket, bakery and Baskin Robbins, sells Christmas Cakes. The vast majority of Japanese people believe this is a European/American tradition.
Christmas KFC: The tradition of eating KFC for Christmas started in 1974. KFC opened its doors in Japan in 1970. But people weren't buying their food. So KFC started advertising it as Christmas food and now, everyone in Japan believes this to be true.
