Azure Flame Reloaded

Takaoka no Kami possesses Masahiro again. Mokkun: What are you here for? You’d better have plot information, otherwise it’s just a waste of screen time. Takaoka no Kami: Actually, I do have something to say- something is going to happen to soon. Takaoka no Kami departs. Mokkun: Yeah, like we couldn’t have figured that out [...]

Taiin receives a wind-mail from Byakko and Suzaku. Byakko: We have discovered important plot information. The evil onryou enemy of the arc is the spirit of a man named Hozumi no Moronao. Seimei relays this information to Masahiro. Seimei: Masahiro, I also have important background information about Moronao that will prevent us from having to [...]

A generic is patrolling at night when the onryou appears before him. Onryou: Take me to your leader! Generic: Please don’t hurt me, I’m just a generic guard! If you want to talk to a named character, try Fujiwara-no-Yukinari! The onryou goes to see Yukinari, who is in bed. Yukinari: What’s this- I didn’t order [...]

A mysterious hooded woman summons an onryou/demon of hatred. Woman: The Kyuuki arc is finally over, and that means the time has come for a new villain to emerge! Onryou: Anger and hatred! The next morning, Masahiro is awoken by Akiko. (Masahiro: Akiko is in my bedroom! We didn’t…did we?)

Seimei and Masahiro visit Michinaga. Michinaga: Masahiro, we’ve been getting complaints that the Kyuuki arc is lasting far too long. You must finish it tonight. (Seimei: Masahiro, Masahiro, Masahiro…why do we always have to rely on this untrained Level Three boy?) Seimei: Now, Masahiro, if you wouldn’t mind running along, Michinaga and I can discuss [...]

Masahiro is fighting a bat demon. Masahiro: Slicing Wave! Input Spell Command! Masahiro charges a spell. Masahiro: White Barrier! The monster starts running away. Guren: Well done Masahiro, you scored three damage points this time! Now I’ll finish him off with my flames. The monster is burned, and the battle ends.

Mokkun goes into Masahiro’s room, only to find that he has been possessed by Takao no Kami, the Kifune dragon god. Mokkun: Wow, Masahiro, you’re a lot better looking now- I mean, don’t you dare do anything to the main character that might jeopardise my position on the show. Takao no Kami: Now really- have [...]

Masahiro and Guren run to the next encounter area. As they get there, they are joined by Seiryu, Pigtails and Rikugou. Masahiro: Thanks for joining my party, Seiryu- now I can hide behind you and earn some EXP. Seiryu: You may be the main character, but whilst you are still Level Two, you do not [...]

Masahiro and Mokkun are left behind as Akiko is kidnapped by Keiko and taken away. Masahiro: Damn, I missed out on EXP again. Mokkun, how’s your HP? Mokkun: I lost a few points, but I’m fine; more importantly, what should we do next? Masahiro: In order to determine that, we’ll need to use Flashback Combo [...]

Akiko is asleep at her home when she hears a voice calling her. Akiko: I can hear a random voice calling to me- I’d better go outside and see who it is. A woman, Keiko, is waiting outside. Keiko: Akiko, come over to me, since this is clearly not a trap. As Akiko hesitates, black [...]
