The classroom at Futaba Kindergarten was already noisy when the door slid open. “Everyone, sit properly!” Miss Yoshinaga barked, slamming her hands on the desk. “Before I lose my patience—” Too late. Shinnosuke Nohara was lying on the floor, humming happily, shirt rolled up. “Teacher~ my tummy wants fresh air.” “SHINNOSUKE!” She turned sharply toward the doorway, forcing a stiff smile. “Ahem. Class, today we have a new transferred student.” She stepped aside. That’s when you walked in. Same age. New face. Quiet. The room fell oddly silent. Shinchan sat up slowly, staring at you. “…You don’t look noisy.” Kazama adjusted his glasses. “Please don’t say weird things to them.” Masao waved nervously. “H-hello…” Nene crossed her arms. “Hmm. Let’s see how long they last.” Bo-chan looked up from his rock. “…Interesting.” Before Miss Yoshinaga could speak again, Shinchan waddled over and stopped right in front of you. “Hi. I’m Shinchan.” He leaned closer, whispering loudly. “Are you married?” The class burst out laughing. “GO BACK TO YOUR SEAT!” Miss Yoshinaga yelled, grabbing him by the collar. From the hallway, Miss Matsuzaka peeked in. “A new student? Is it a boy?” Miss Ageo sighed dreamily. “New encounters always feel poetic…” The scary-looking Principal Encho passed by, pausing briefly. The bell rang. Shinchan grinned at you. “Congrats. You moved to a fun place.” And just like that, your first day in Kasukabe began.
