Stage 1

Gnome-colors-gtk-edit.svg data/scenario/komachi/000.cv0.jdiff

Komachi

Heh heh heh, I've found another amusing way to pass the time.

Komachi

The weather is the materialization of the temperament, was it.

Komachi

Temperament, or in other words, phantoms. Meaning, if I watch the surrounding weather,

Komachi

I can understand the shape that person will take in afterlife.

Marisa

Uwah, a shinigami. She's coming to take me away.

Komachi

Oh ho, I see your spirit is that of drizzling rain.

Marisa

What's that?

Komachi

Drizzling rain is thin, gloomy, and unremarkable, but it has a gentle quality about it.

Marisa

Aw, don't make me blush.

Komachi

You'll become a phantom that is always in the background, I bet.

Komachi

Neither ascending to heaven nor reincarnating, just a phantom eternally waiting for judgment in Higan.

Marisa

...Have you come for me after all, then?

Komachi

Aah, if you're going to be that impatient, then I guess I have no choice.

⧼lose⧽

Marisa

Do I become immortal if I beat death?

Marisa

Ah, but to become a celestial, well...

Marisa

It kinda puts me off.

⧼win⧽

Komachi

Ha ha ha, I'm kidding. I just came to play around a bit.

Marisa

If I defeat you when you do come for me, will I really not die?

Komachi

First of all, I'm a ferryman, so I won't be coming for you.

Komachi

If you do defeat the shinigami that comes for you, you'd gain a little extension on your life.

Komachi

Hermits and Celestials are usually the ones who keep on winning.

Komachi

However, against normal humans, first they'd use a mental attack against an open crack in their hearts.

Marisa

Celestials as in... like the one in charge of repairing Reimu's shrine?

Marisa

I don't want to become like her.

Komachi

Huh? Why would a celestial be repairing a shrine...?

Komachi

That shrine maiden has more to her than she lets on.

Stage 2

Gnome-colors-gtk-edit.svg data/scenario/komachi/001.cv0.jdiff

Komachi

It looks like there's humans here as well.

Sakuya

My, my. A shinigami has come for me? I'm very sorry, but I'll meet with you some other time.

Komachi

Clouds have appeared. On top of that, it's become windy.

Komachi

You will become like a cloud.

Sakuya

I'm getting the feeling I'm being slighted somehow.

Komachi

It's alright, to become like a cloud means you won't be brilliant or wealthy, but, you can avoid harmful light, and it makes your life much easier,

Komachi

a very handy temperament to have, I'll let you know.

Sakuya

Oh my, are you complementing me?

Komachi

While they were alive, these skilled phantoms were mostly people with worldly wisdom, living without a single discomfort.

Komachi

But, when it comes time for judgment in Higan, those techniques will become futile in getting a good verdict.

Sakuya

You certainly like talking about the future... Well, it does match with a shinigami.

Komachi

Well, well, let's put that aside and end it here.

⧼lose⧽

Sakuya

I still don't want to die yet.

Sakuya

That said, I wonder if there are times when death is inevitable.

⧼win⧽

Komachi

Don't worry, I'm not taking anyone's soul.

Sakuya

Then why... Could it be because of the usual?

Komachi

Hm? The usual?

Komachi

Well, y'know not really, I was taking a break from work.

Komachi

Somebody with worldly wisdom like you would understand, right?

Stage 3

Gnome-colors-gtk-edit.svg data/scenario/komachi/002.cv0.jdiff

Komachi

If I recall correctly, this place has an interesting fellow as well.

Youmu

Huh? Thank you for your work. You did something about the phantoms, right?

Komachi

Now that you mention it, the phantoms who were cut down have decreased in number quite a bit.

Komachi

I'm not sure why, but surely it wasn't something you did, right?

Youmu

Yes, it looks like it was the work of the Celestial. Doesn't it seem so?

Komachi

What was that?

Youmu

Just not long ago, the Celestial came to the shrine to fix it. I heard a lot from her.

Youmu

It is said that cutting down <color 0000FF>spirit (気)</color> lifts it to the <color 0000FF>heavens (天)</color>, which cause one's surrounding <color 0000FF>weather (天気)</color> to change.

Youmu

Now that this has been stopped, the weather should gradually return to normal.

Komachi

What was that!?

Youmu

?

Komachi

Oh, nothing. Well, that's good to hear.

Komachi

Speaking of which, your weather is such a magnificent blue sky.

Youmu

It's much too warm, though.

Komachi

This blue somehow makes you feel violent.

Youmu

That's not necessarily true.

⧼lose⧽

Youmu

Well, I'm glad I'm cleared of your suspicion that I was slashing the phantoms.

Youmu

I only slash the phantoms when they are troublesome, and there isn't that many of them.

(鬱陶しい can also mean "depressing/gloomy.")
⧼win⧽

Komachi

Azure skies were once a symbol of emptiness.

Komachi

Among the living obtaining that spirit is difficult, but among the dead it's quite common.

Komachi

You might become a phantom with a gaping hole in your heart.

Youmu

Please don't one-sidedly predict my afterlife.

Komachi

Now then, since I won't be able to play this game for much longer, I'll finish it up.

Stage 4

Gnome-colors-gtk-edit.svg data/scenario/komachi/003.cv0.jdiff

Komachi

For a human, to be alive is to be lost.

Komachi

They gave this place the name Bamboo Forest of the Lost, perhaps wanting to make it a symbol of the living.

Komachi

There's an unaging bunch living here.

Reisen

Are you, perhaps, lost?

Reisen

What, you're a shinigami? The one famous for skipping work.

Komachi

Shall I start working here, then?

Reisen

I'll have to pass on that.

Komachi

Oh, the weather just cleared, and a breeze appears.

Reisen

?

Komachi

A temperament of wind is a sign of imbalance in the heart.

Komachi

A phantom who changes depending on who they're with, I predict.

Komachi

Skillful in worldly affairs, but weak to ailments of the mind.

((A reference to ancient Chinese medicine, it was believed that inhaling mountain vapor disrupted the chi of the heart.))

Reisen

What are you speaking about?

Komachi

However, your state of mind seems to have became more clear. You seem to no longer have any doubts.

Reisen

I don't understand what you are talking about, but if you're not lost please leave quickly.

Komachi

My, my, don't be like that... Just playing around a little bit should be fine.

⧼lose⧽

Reisen

I'm going to be busy soon.

Reisen

Is it really ok for you to skip work?

⧼win⧽

Komachi

The wind has already died down quite a bit. Am I almost out of time?

Komachi

Putting that aside, where do you plan to go when you die?

Reisen

Why do I have to think about my own afterlife?

Komachi

It is my job, you know.

Reisen

Well, I'd like to cross the Sanzu River and take it easy.

Komachi

Oh, interesting. ...Well, hold on to that dream.

Stage 5

Gnome-colors-gtk-edit.svg data/scenario/komachi/004.cv0.jdiff

Komachi

Hmm, not even close to being fully rebuilt yet.

Komachi

It looks like this will take some time.

Reimu

Oh, slacker. Did you come here to worship?

Komachi

...Mmm, it's warm. Fine weather with not a single cloud in the sky.

Reimu

After a while the weather should return to normal, she said. But it seems it's still a ways off until then.

Komachi

Cloudless weather is just harmful sunlight

and the earth's vitality passing by.

Hot in the daytime, cool during the night.

Komachi

Straight shooting and inflexible, neither merciless nor kind.

Reimu

Oh, shut up. If you've come to be an annoyance just go away.

Reimu

Wait, you just came to skip work, didn't you?

Komachi

Well read by you, I must say.

⧼lose⧽

Reimu

If you have that much money, donate some of that already.

Reimu

But, these coins... which country's currency are these?

⧼win⧽

Komachi

Well then, I guess it's about time I got back to my work.

Reimu

It must be nice, being able to pick your own work hours.

Komachi

Because of that I always have a lot of work, though.

Tenshi

My, what fun-looking thing are you doing?

Komachi

Wait, just who are you?

Tenshi

I was asked to rebuild this shrine. Right now, I'm carrying out the plans.

Komachi

That would make you...the celestial, right?

Tenshi

And you are...? Wah! Could you be a shinigami?!

Komachi

That's right, a shinigami whose presence silences crying children.

Tenshi

If you're a shinigami, then shouldn't you have no business with a celestial like me?

Komachi

Even celestials have lifespans like humans do, after all. But, it's just that they don't die according to their lifespans.

Komachi

So you do understand what that means, right?

Komachi

From what I can see, you have lived the equivalent of your lifespan times many.

Komachi

And every time you were supposed to die, you came to attack the shinigami that came to meet you. Or something like that.

Tenshi

Heh heh,@

Tenshi

That's right.

Tenshi

Are you saying you're here to try to pick me up again? How futile.

Stage 6

Gnome-colors-gtk-edit.svg data/scenario/komachi/005.cv0.jdiff

Tenshi

If a shinigami has come for me, then there's nothing more to think about.

Komachi

Well, claiming souls is out of my jurisdiction. I'm just a humble ferryman.

Tenshi

Ferryman? Perhaps of the Sanzu River?

Komachi

Right, right. I don't go out and kill people.

Komachi

But you know, temperaments... phantoms being cut down is a bit troubling to me.

Tenshi

Oh?

Komachi

From what I've heard, it looks as if it's your doing? Using phantoms to change the mood of the heavens,

Komachi

thus the phantoms don't cross the river, and then I have to do something about it. It's a real annoyance.

Tenshi

Now this is interesting. Occasionally fighting with the shinigami that had come for me was

Tenshi

a rare pleasure, but a fight with a ferryman-

Komachi

Not underestimating a shinigami would be in your best interests. Celestials fear shinigami, do they not?

Tenshi

What Celestials fear are the five appointed weakeners.

(The five weakeners, signs of a Celestial's incoming death (天人五衰) are:

1. Dirty clothes 2. Withering flowers 3. Filthy, stinking body 4. Armpit sweat 5. Uncomfortable seat)

Tenshi

Shinigami are just one of those flower crown witherers. That is, they have the ability to wither our crowns' flowers.

Tenshi

However, as the one of the five that is the most unpleasant, don't think you'll work against me!

⧼lose⧽

Tenshi

You're the ferryman after all.

Tenshi

You're different from those who try to fight me with a mental attack.
