Otegine: It's so hot~

Otegine: Hey, you guys-- you're dressed up so nicely, aren't you hot?

Yamabushi: Kakakaka! Otegine, withstanding the heat is also a part of ascetic practice! Those guys are likely in the middle of practicing it, too!

Kane-san: Yeah! ...Not! No way.

I'm not hot!! These are both practical and elegant! My clothes are pefect.

Kane-san: Jeez...

Horikawa: Ah, welcome back, Kane-san!

Kane-san: .....AS IF THAT COULD BE TRUE! IT'S SO FUCKING HOT!

Horikawa: Ahh... Kane-san's screaming silently...

Nagasone: His soul is wailing, huh...

Horikawa: Here, Kane-san! Please take some cooling patches!

Kane-san: Thanks.

Kashuu: Kunihiro~ gimme one too.

Yamato: Me too.

Nagasone: You guys... I told you, didn't I? If it's hot, you should wear lighter clothes.

And I don't get why you're hiding that you're hot?

Kashuu: You don't get it. Style is endurance.

Kane-san: And if others sense that endurance, you lose!

Nagasone: What exactly are you fighting.

Horikawa: He's right... Kane-san said he was hot so I bought him this T-shirt with the best intentions...

...But he said "that's so lame, do you think I'd wear that"...

I guess this is his rebellious age where he'll listen to gossip...

Nagasone: Are you his mother...?

Yamato: But if we don't give up and change to lighter clothes soon, we'll get heatstroke...

You guys are fine as long as it's not lame, right?

Kane-san and Kashuu: Right.

Kane-san: Guess it can't be helped... we should bust our asses looking for new clothes around here, huh.

Nagasone: Then we should get some too, right Horikawa Kunihiro?

Horikawa: Yes!

Kane-san: Eh? You guys especially aren't hot though? There's no need for you to come?

Nagasone: Fu... "Number one! Don't do anything that breaks the Samurai code!"

Kane-san: !!

Nagasone: We're the Shinsengumi!! When our comrades are suffering, do we stand by idly and pretend it's not our problem? Is that the "Makoto" samurai code? NO! (T/N: the shinsengumi haori has 'makoto' on it)

Nagasone: Therefore it's only right that we stand by you! Let's go forth and get cool biz!

Kashuu and Kane-san: Waaaaah, Na... Nagasone-san, you...!!

Yamato: Oraaa!

Kane-san: Why?!

Yamato: Right, so I propose we show something that confirms the Shinsengumi bond--

Kashuu: Oiiiii that's too cool?!

Kane-san: We'll be showing off our fierceness on the battlefield even in peacetime...!

Yamato: Well, none of us really know anything about human clothes, right?

So maybe we should think about which of the swords here in the citadel that looks like they have the coolest clothes... what do you think?

Kane-san: I see. Good idea.

Nagasone: That makes sense.

Yosh, let's go scouting and decide!

Share your info, okay.

Nagasone: Well? Do you guys see anything good?

Others: Nnnn...

Kashuu: I can see Mitsutada, Aoe and Hasebe wearing jerseys...

They don't look too hot...

Kane-san: Buu~uut... just saying "jersey" depresses me...

Kashuu: I get it! They're not cute at all, that's a problem.

Yamato: Hey, you two, we have two jersey soldiers here, stop thoughtlessly criticizing jerseys!

Nagasone: Jer... jersey soldiers?!

Horikawa: Wait-- Yasusada, you're not helping?!

Nagasone: Focus, let's keep looking. Be on your guard, we don't know where a good example will show up.

Nagasone: Oh, it's Uguisumaru and Ichigo Hitofuri.

Yamato: They're wearing jerseys.

Kane-san: Nakigitsune and Shishio are both wearing jerseys, too.

Kashuu: Wait a sec! Nakigitsune's got natural fur around his neck in this blazing heat?! I respect him...!

Kane-san: Hotarumaru, Akashi and Aizen have jerseys too... eh, have there only ever been jerseys around here?

Horikawa: It... it's coincidence, Kane-san...

Kashuu: Doudanuki Masakuni and Yamanbagiri Kunihiro have jerseys too!

Kane-san: There's definitely only jerseys here!

Nagasone: That's not true you two!! It's really just coincidence!!

Kashuu: Huh... now that I think about it, jersey zippers are cute, aren't they...?

Kane-san: Yeah... and the elastic waistband is practical so it's not so bad, it's kinda cool, right...?

Nagasone: Crap! The heat and the jerseys are attacking in waves, they've started to change the definitions of "cute" and "cool"!

Nagasone: All members retreat indoors!

Yamato: Ah...

Yamato: Hey, isn't that good?

Horikawa: Ah, that's great!

Nagasone: Ohh!

Nagasone: That really does look cool!

Horikawa: If it's sewing, leave it to me!

Yamato: Eh? Kunihiro, you'll make them?

Horikawa: Yes! Kane-san and Kiyomitsu are both weak to "haute couture"!

Nagasone: It's "Maison de Kunihiro"!

Kane-san: Sorry, we crashed...

Horikawa: Ah, Kane-san!! I finished the new clothes!

Kane-san: Eh? Ah, this-- this is their...?!

Kashuu: This could definitely be cool...! And it's super cute!

Nagasone: Well then, shall we go ahead and try them on? Our new uniform!

Others: Yeah!

Shinsengumi New Model

Awataguchi Cool Biz Edition

Kane-san: Nagasone-san... I've come to understand one thing clearly...

With clothes... more than practicality or coolness, the problem is whether or not they suit us...

Nagasone: I'm sad to say you're right...

Horikawa: Kane-san...! Nagasone-san...!

(Kashuu: They suit us, though.

Yamato: Yeah.)

In this incident, Izuminokami Kanesada keenly felt a human sort of pain.

In the end, the Shinsengumi swords switched to jerseys for summer in their private rooms only, and somehow made it through the summer.

Yamato: This elastic waistband is so comfortable.

Kane-san: This is easy to move in...

Kashuu: It's super easy to take care of, too.
