Alright, you guys.
We're gonna completely bury them in snow.
Yeah!
You still have some snow left on you, Akito.
Oh, thanks...
Before you all start huddling up, may I make a suggestion?
A suggestion?
I thought that it'd be fun to throw in a few rules to make our snowball fight more interesting.
Yeah, we should probably decide how the winner is going to be declared.
First, in terms of victory conditions, we'll begin by dividing up this mountain of snowballs between us.
The team that runs out first will be declared the winner. Does that sound good?
So, the number of hits we score doesn't matter...?
Yes, because some here are more athletic than others. As such, I feel that it's necessary to level the playing field.
True.
So, just one rule?
No, this is where things get interesting.
Any person who is hit five times by the opposing team will incur a penalty and be forbidden from throwing snowballs for thirty seconds.
Thirty seconds...?
That doesn't sound very long...
Actually, you could throw a lot of snowballs during that time.
Yeah, and think about what happens when two people are penalized. It'd be four against two.
If that were to happen, the larger team could suppress the smaller one and get the chance to throw unchecked for a period of time.
Th-That'd be terrible!
You all seem to understand the implications.
In addition, there isn't any cover around, so you'll be allowed to guard yourself using your arms and hands. That also goes for protecting your teammates.
In other words, if we're hit anywhere else, that'll get counted towards our penalty.
Yes, and we'll use the honor system here.
Please make sure to keep a tally of how many times you've been hit.
Okay!
Is that all for the rules, Rui?!
We should also huddle up and figure out a plan!
Yes, I'll be right there!
So, how about we start in five minutes?
Okay!
It really is incredible how Kamishiro can come up with such detailed rules so quickly.
Yeah, he thinks pretty fast.
(But I feel like he should be using those wits for other things sometimes...)
You guys ready?
Yes, we're ready whenever!
Then...
Let the snowball fight between Vivid BAD SQUAD and Wonderlands×Showtime commence!
Just like we planned!
We're starting with...
Wh-What?! M-Me?!
(We'll make it look like we're going after her and...!)
Now!
Eat this!
I'm sorry!
There!
Wh-Whaaaat?!
Just kidding!
Stand behind me!!
Block-block-block-block!
She just blocked every snowball!
Hehehe. I had a sneaking suspicion that you'd want to single out Tsukasa first after he got you earlier, Shinonome.
Hah hah hah hah! Looks like Rui's prediction was spot-on!
Wait! Now's my chance!
Blast!!
Oh no! Tsukasa!
That was your own fault...
*Shiver*
No matter! The battle has just begun!
Now it's time for us to unleash our plan!
Yeah! “Operation: Neverending Barrage” is a go!
That sounds like they're going to throw as many as they can at us...!
They're not doing anything special! They're just throwing them! Did you guys even come up with a real plan?!
Haha! Either way, we also gotta keep throwing snowballs at them!
Right!
We're not about to lose, you hear me?!
