| Ichihime | Valentines Day | Valentine's Day? Nyaa? What's that? Something eatable? Well, I'm only interested in festivals when I can keep eating...Nyaa? What's this? Master, why do you have so many chocolates? Mind giving me some?! Awesome nyaa! ...Master, why do you look helpless? Don't tell me they can't be eaten...Nyaa! So they are eatable! My master is the best nyaa! |
|
| Miki Nikaidou | Valentines Day | Surprised to receive my chocolates, aren't you? Well, it's written on your face. You keep throwing your tantrum the entire day just because you haven't received my chocolates, am I right? I'm giving it out late on purpose. You know, I can only see such cute expression of yours by pulling a prank on you. |
|
| Kana Fujita | Valentines Day | Sorry, we can't go anywhere crowded because of Kana's identity! But Kana's enjoying the atmosphere with just you and me, because...shh...it's the secret only between us. Isn't it romantic? Hehe... |
|
| Chiori Mikami | Valentines Day | Here's the chocolate for you...Huh? What's with your expression? You must have misunderstood! I've prepared this for everyone, you're not the special someone. It's just that...I will disgust everyone if my gift goes to a pervert like you. That's why your chocolate is slightly different from the others. So...you'd better be grateful and take it, or else my hard work is wasted! |
|
| Mai Aihara | Valentines Day | I am not very familiar with western festivals. It's said that it's a festival when people give their homemade dishes to the ones they miss...Oh? It is not about homemade dishes? Sorry...for my ignorance. Please do not mind this...master? ...Master would receive any gift as long as it's a gift that comes with sincerity. If that's the case...every bit of me makes up your gift, master! ...Please take me as your gift! |
|

|
| Xenia | Valentines Day | Oh? Surprised to receive my handmade chocolates? That's nothing. For a lady like me, cooking is a basic skill. What? You are surprised at the fact that I actually gave you chocolates? I...I don't think it's a big deal, considering our relationship... |
|
| Kaavi | Valentines Day | Please take it. Why do you look stunned? This is today's special fate...gift. Heh...looks like you want chocolates more. Maybe bite on this tarot card? It might be surprisingly tasty. Hehehe. |

|
| Anju Suzumiya | Valentines Day | I've made some chocolate for you by following an online recipe. I still haven't found out the differences between true feeling and obligation. I guess it doesn't matter as long as it is a gift from KR-976 to you. |
|
| Joseph | Valentines Day | Here. Remember to unbox it after you arrive home. By the way, there is a surprise in it that I deliberately made for you. What is it? A surprise is a surprise, hahaha! |
|
| Osamu Saitou | Valentines Day | To be honest, they are just ordinary China roses, but the sellers often name them as Blue Enchantress, Orange Dream, and other romantic names, to make them sound fancy. Let's go...Don't you like it? It about the season to perform cuttage on the China roses. You have 5 minutes to decide whether to enjoy these China roses outside that can only last a week with the help of chemicals, or to own a China rose garden yourself. |
|
| Sawako Kitami | Valentines Day | Here's a Valentine's Day gift for you! What? What do you mean what's in it? How could it not be chocolate? It's a raw chocolate I've made meticulously since morning, and I've added some special Sawako maple syrup. This will definitely be the most unique chocolate you have today. |
|
| Ein | Valentines Day | Thanks. By the way, what is Valentine's Day anyway? Why do people keep giving me chocolates? And my colleague asks me to gift them in return...The Far East has a lot of strange customs. |
|
| Momo Hina | Valentines Day | The students are gifting chocolates to each other today. Therefore, Momo has prepared one for Mr. Rabbit as well. Please accept this 5-kilogram chocolate! Momo carried it here with all her might! It's said that the size of a chocolate represents the maker's heart, and this is the biggest chocolate Momo can make. However, Mr. Rabbit should know that Momo's heart for you is as big as the universe! |
|
| Zan Tsukimi | Valentines Day | I don't know much about this festival. It is probably something created by a candy company long ago. What a bummer...But, if you really love chocolates, there is no need for you to wait till today. I can buy them for you every day. Haha! |
|
| Kirara Fujimoto | Valentines Day | I'm sorry, I got off work late. Take this, I'm really confident about it. It's a hot girl style super shinny chocolate! Feel free to take it as true feeling chocolate......Hmm? Ah, are you thinking, "she even knows how to make chocolates?" That's rude! This is a girl's basic skill! |
|
| Kaguyahime | Valentines Day | Inviting a great eastern goddess like me to celebrate a western festival? Oh, human, how could you be so reckless?! However...Even a goddess like me sometimes answers unreasonable requests from the chosen ones. This is just because I'm kind-hearted! |
|
| Ren Kisaragi | Valentines Day | Happy Valentine's Day. Hmm? Is it news to you that I know this festival? For a festival when couple offers are everywhere, it's bigger news if I don't... Cough...if you do not have any plans today, how about listening to my plans? |
|
| Usumi Ishihara | Valentines Day | As for making the best Valentine's Day chocolate, there's no way for me, head of a pastry club, to lose!...But for the first time I know that today is such a joyful festival. Happy Valentine's Day! |
|
| Eliisa | Valentines Day | In this season of every year, a herd of lamb are born in the ranch. These fluffy and soft animals wander everywhere. Shaun, you must remember that, right?! Mr. Wolf, how about a fluffy and soft date with me? |
|
| Chihori Terasaki | Valentines Day | Happy New Year, {name}! As the editor-in-chief of a magazine, it is my job to remember every commercialized festival. Of course, if you wish, I can also remember every day that is related to you! |
|
| Saki Miyanaga | Valentines Day | Here's your Valentine's Day gift. Nodoka and Someya-senpai taught me how to make it. |
|
| Nodoka Haramura | Valentines Day | Sorry, I've been too busy with Mahjong recently and didn't prepare anything. If you don't mind... I was having some chocolate bars with Saki... There's one more left. It's still chocolate, right. |
|
| Koromo Amae | Valentines Day | What's the difference between Valentine's Day chocolate and regular chocolate? Is this a gift for special ceremonial occasions? Okay! I'll make tartar sauce chocolate then. Getting right on it! |
|
| Teru Miyanaga | Valentines Day | This is the chocolate for Valentine's Day. Sumire said this was the etiquette... Is it good? I haven't tasted it yet. |
|
| Fu Ji | Valentines Day | This is a festival that I cannot afford to miss. What kind of promotion do you think we should bring out today? One of a couple gets free entry? That sounds so old like "whoa". You know, this place always keeps up to date. Free chocolate upon purchase is even more boring... Ah, how about you dress up as a maid? I heard that youngsters nowadays would fall for this. Don't worry, you'll get paid handsomely. What say you? |
|
| Qi Xi | Valentines Day | My name says it all. I refuse to participate in this kind of little punks' western festivals, hmph! It's not too late for you to change your mind! |
|
| Yumeko Jabami | Valentines Day | Thank you for caring about me. I made this by my own. Please take it. I also prepared gifts for Ichihime and others, but can Mr. Wanjirou... Eat chocolate? |
|
| Mary Saotome | Valentines Day | Of course I know its Valentine's Day today, but why should I give you chocolate? Are we in a relationship? Stop dreaming... You should be happy for receiving obligation chocolate from me. Here, take it. |
|
| Midari Ikishima | Valentines Day | What's in it? Today's Valentine's Day, so of course it's chocolate. Never mind if you don't want it... Oh, you took it! Wait! Don't open until you arrive home. And don't return it to me because that is humiliating. You'll know what's in it after you get home, hehe... |
|
| Kirari Momobami | Valentines Day | Take it. Don't worry about anything. Happy Valentine's Day, hehe... |
|
| Reina Nanami | Valentines Day | These are some chocolates that Reina has made with other shop assistants. Reina has made a range of them as Reina was not too sure about your preferences. Wanna try some? |
|
| A-37 | Valentines Day | This is just another ordinary day, since we are always together. No need to be happy about it... However, I've placed a gift at your bedside to thank you. |
|
| Hibiki Himekawa | Valentines Day | This… This is a true-feeling chocolate Hibiki specially prepared just for you… Since I've said that, does it taste better? Hehehe… Even if itwas not a true-feeling chocolate, you would still accept it with gratitude,right? |
|
| Ryan | Valentines Day | It's the time of the year to gift chocolate again. You can smell the sweet scent of candies in the air. But... (Sniffing) I think you smell even sweeter, onee-sama, hehe. Onee-sama, I'm not like those grown-ups who only treat you well on Valentine's Day. As long as you like it, I'll always treat you like gold. |
|
| Ayako Morikawa | Valentines Day | V-Valentine's Day... Isn't a festival that witches are supposed to celebrate. But... I'm not a witch yet, so it should be fine... What are we going to do today? Haunted house or escape room? I can't wait... Hehe... |
|
| Natsuhiko Takigawa | Valentines Day | When I was training earlier, I heard them talking about Valentine's Day. The minute I realized that it was today, I was already rushing over to you. Probably because I hoped to spend Valentine's Day with you. Yeah, that's gotta be it. After my practice with the team, let's go do something you like. Anything. |
|
| Shigeru Akagi | Valentines Day | Valentine's Day... I've heard of it, but I don't know much about it. It's related to chocolate, no? |
|
| Iwao Washizu | Valentines Day | I have no interest in mortal festivals. Not to mention that I have to send gifts. So boring! ...Go tell the chef to prepare a feast today. Don't ask why, just pass it on! |
|
| Kazuha Saionji | Valentines Day | Let's not go to the dojo today as there were traces of unknown chocolates in front of the entrance, and people nearby are acting suspiciously. But rest assured, I've sent my butler to investigate the motive behind this, and I shall stay here to protect you. |
|
| Nanaha Onodera | Valentines Day | Here's a little gift for you as a token of gratitude for your care. Looks like made by a pro? Thanks for the compliment. I was once interested in making desserts and learned a little from the books. Hopefully you'll like it. |
|
| Sammir | Valentines Day | Did you say Valentine's Day? I see... People nowadays celebrate today for their loved ones. But I want to respect your wishes, so today can be any holiday you like. |
|
| Kaguya Shinomiya | Valentines Day | Oh my, judging by your expression… Do you think this is Giri or Honmei…? Hehe, you're so cute. |
|
| Miyuki Shirogane | Valentines Day | Here's my return gift for the previous Valentine's Day. It's some bread baked with a rice cooker. I wonder how they taste? Some constructive criticism would help, as I'm striving to enhance its taste... I wonder if Kaguya would like them, too? What do you think? Don't get me wrong. I'm just thinking that if she says they're tasty, they'll be my "breadwinner", get it? Ahahahaha... |
|
| Ai Hayasaka | Valentines Day | Here are some Valentine's day chocolates for you. Us gals prepare Giri chocolates as a consolation for guys who don't have a partner. Well, for you, I guess you couldn't care less if it's Giri or Honmei, am I right...? In fact, this is just for you... Hey, the look on your face tells me that you're really looking forward to them! |
|
| Kei Shirogane | Valentines Day | Some Valentine's Day chocolates for you. A little gift for taking care of me all this time... Yup, I made it myself. I come from a poor family, so I'm used to cooking. Well, there's nothing special about it. I just melted and molded them. Hope you like them. |
|
| Yuzu | Valentines Day | Here's some chocolate for you that was exclusively made by the Red Panda Squad... Of course, I was involved, too. I can't blame you, as typical mortals are incapable of sensing the sorcery surge within it. Well, I am responsible for casting the luck spell during the chocolate-making process. You might not be able to see it, but this bar of chocolate is, in fact, blessed by the magic of luck! |
|
| Zechs | Valentines Day | Look at the time. An outstanding physique is a necessity for every hunter. You better start working out now... Huh? What's today's occasion? Hmm... Your birthday? ... New Year's? ... Then what's the big deal today? ... Valentine's Day?! What sort of celebration is that? ... Of course it'd be weird. If a couple truly loves each other, I'm pretty sure Valentine's Day is every day. What's the point of celebrating it on a designated day? And what are the other 364 days for? (Takes a deep breath and sighs) Instead of thinking of this nonsense, how about you follow me to the mountains? I'm gonna take you away from this unreasonable world. |
|
| Lily Kitahara | Valentines Day | Ah, Valentine's day, the day for lovers. Looks like I'm gonna have to celebrate it with you. Hehe. But, I don't really feel like today's any different than any other day that I've spent with you. Looks like you have to try harder so I can get into the holiday spirit! |
|
| Hisa Takei | Valentines Day | Ah, I thought you weren't coming to the shrine today. It seems like I can give away this chocolate after all. Happy Valentine's... Oops, sorry, wrong chocolate. I can't give you this one as it is from the student council. Here you go, this is yours! |
|
| Mihoko Fukuji | Valentines Day | Here's a Valentine's Day chocolate. Please take it. I hope it won't bother you too much because Hisa once said there's nothing better than receiving chocolate from the person you like on Valentine's Day... I wonder what her expression will be when she receives my chocolate. Hehe... |
|
| Ako Atarashi | Valentines Day | Chocolate? Ah, today's Valentine's Day. My bad, the only chocolate I'm holding is for Shizu... Pfft, haha! Come on, why the long face? I'm just messing with you. How can I not prepare chocolate on a day like this? Here you go, Happy Valentine's Day! |
|
| Toki Onjoji | Valentines Day | Valentine's... Day? Ah, that's today! I slept through the day yesterday and completely forgot about this... But, unlike Ryuka, I don't how to make chocolates, so what could I even do even if I remembered? Hmm... I guess any chocolates will do, even if it is not self-made, right? Well, how about giving this chocolate ball a try? It tastes decent. |
|
| Fuyumi Shinomiya | Valentines Day | Hmm... How should I differentiate Giri chocolate and Honmei chocolate? Should I add different patterns? Would that be too obvious? (Mumbling) ...Ah! (Surprised) Are you here already? I'm not ready yet! You're not allowed to peek! Unless... Unless you can give me some advice, like... what flavor of chocolate do you like? |
|
| Qing Luan | Valentines Day | I have not experienced this kind of festivals. If you don't mind insipidity, I can be your company. |
|
| Ayane Kisaragi | Valentines Day | Honey, Happy Valentine's Day! I really like seeing you working so hard for me. It makes me feel really loved, so I also want to do my best for you... This box of chocolate is proof of my effort today. Although they're shaped like pills, I promise they're chocolate! |
|
| Mirai | Valentines Day | Happy Valentine's Day! So? How's your harvest today...? WOW! You have so much chocolate! Are you thinking of becoming everyone's Valentine in One Han City? In that case, instead of letting everyone give chocolate to you, why don't I give you a fully-automatic chocolate-making machine? It'll make it so convenient to give chocolates back to everyone on White Day. As for its name... Why don't we call it "Love Factory"? Just talking about it is making me eager to start! Let's go to the Research Society now and work hard to give everyone more love! |
|
| Lelouch Lamperouge | Valentines Day | Valentine's Day. In Britannia, it was a celebration of true love between lovers, but in Area 11, it became a holiday for women to give men chocolates and was really popular among the students of Ashford. So many troubles happened because of this... |
|
| C.C. | Valentines Day | Chocolate? Ah, speaking of which, I think a new chocolate-flavored pizza is now available. I need to buy some. |
|
| Suzaku Kururugi | Valentines Day | Is this chocolate for me? Oh right, it's Valentine's Day today. Thank you, I'll cherish this. By the way, are you free tonight? In return for the chocolate, I want to walk around One Han City with you. |
|
| Kallen Kouzuki | Valentines Day | Shirley said it's better to give out handmade chocolates on Valentine's Day. I'm sorry, but that has nothing to do with me now because I have more important things to do. |
|
| Ransei | Valentines Day | Valentine's Day is a celebration for lovers... Master, are you really willing to eat this chocolate I bought from the ninja village? Umm... Well, there won't be anything weird in it, just some hallucinogenic mushrooms, sleeping herbs, etc. But I can reassure you that it won't be fatal. After all, in the world of ninjas, only love that can be tested can be trusted. So, Master, if you want...! |
|
| Ling | Valentines Day | There's still a little time before the movie starts, so why don't we get some popcorn... Oh, this? The president forced me to take it when I left the school just now. I heard that the new members of the pastry club have been doing too many team-building activities... Do you want to try some? Hey, you should know it's Valentine's Day today, right? What are you thinking by deliberately eating chocolate made by another person in front of me? ...Am I jealous? Is this strange? Isn't this a normal reaction? You should be surprised if I'm not jealous... Um, what's so funny...? |
|
| Kurone Toujou | Valentines Day | This kind of festival is rarely celebrated at Countless Springs. After all, I would be failing at my duties if I can't let you feel this affection every day. However, I really am inviting you because I want to celebrate this festival with you, and the gift I've prepared for you is a long peaceful night. Say, do you think I'm more beautiful than the moon? |
|
| Hannah | Valentines Day | {name}, please accept this. The boss said I should give chocolate to the person I like. You've helped me so much, {name}, and I love you the most! Since you love to hold my hand, I've tried to make this chocolate the same shape as my hand. Does it look close enough? Hehe... |
|
| Musa | Valentines Day | Mating period... not fixed. Is it the same for humans? ...I thought it was today. N-Nothing... |
|
| Illya | Valentines Day | You've taken great care of me after I arrived. This chocolate is a token of my thanks. Someone told me to not only cook food with love, but also to eat food with love. {name}, I believe you're such a person. |
|
| Miyu | Valentines Day | Anyone can make delicious chocolate if they have the right materials and don't make any mistakes. In my opinion, the truly difficult thing is putting your "heart" into it like Illya said. Although she says she is very happy when she receives chocolate, I guess this varies from person to person. I hope you like this gift, and I'll be waiting to hear what you think about it. |
|
| Kuro | Valentines Day | Happy Valentine's Day! Oh, I think gave you the chocolate too early. If I wait a little longer until you think I won't give you any, I wonder if you'll make those sad and cute puppy dog eyes at me, hehe... |
|
| Gil | Valentines Day | Let's go. I've booked out the entire amusement park. Haha, don't be surprised by such an insignificant return gift... Oh? Are you uncomfortable when we're the only people in the amusement park? If you want things to be more lively, I don't mind having some clowns come here to dance for us. |
|
| Eve Krist | Valentines Day | Of course I know about Valentine's Day! We celebrate something similar in the Northland. Not only do I know about Valentine's Day, but I also know that couples in One Han City give each other gifts and go on dates on this day... Ah! That's right! I remember that Lily also said adults play certain adults-only games on this day! {name}, you're the one who should treat me like an adult woman. So, what will we be doing today? |
|
| Kutsuji | Valentines Day | Couple activities are completely out of the question. As compensation, I can tell you three things you want to know depending on the situation... *Sigh* Do you think two people who are always together every day can give each other a Valentine's Day surprise? Rather than thinking about that, why don't you think about where you want to go to have fun during the week I've specially set aside for you? |
|
| Lin Lang | Valentines Day | Have you lost something? Are you referring to this pink letter or this heart-shaped box of chocolates? {name}, you're such a terrible adult. You already have someone as cute as me. How dare you go out and be lovey-dovey with others... That's so terrible! |
|
| Yuan Feng | Valentines Day | My friend, as I was watching the stars, I saw that the Red Phoenix star was in motion, indicating a romantic trouble coming your way. Well, here I am. |
|
| Leia | Valentines Day | Take this, good child... Hmm? Do you not like the chocolates I gave you? Or... did Yuzu say something to you? |
|
| Cynthia | Valentines Day | Really? You're going to give me chocolate, a high-calorie food that contains 600 calories per 100 grams... What? Why would I give it back to you? I didn't say I didn't like it. Here, I'm going to give you another chance. Give me the chocolate in your hand. |
|
| Fuuka Minami | Valentines Day | Here, try this and tell me what you think... Delicious, right? After all, I specially asked the flagship store's head pâtissier to teach me how to make this. Huh? Of course I made it myself. I've been helping my father since I was a child, so making chocolate is a piece of cake... Huh? That's not what you're surprised about? |
|
| Ciri | Valentines Day | Every year on this day, Mojito refuses to perform and throws a tantrum after dragging me backstage. This year? Hehe, Mojito doesn't even want to look at me. It's probably because we're exuding the lovey-dovey vibe he hates the most. It's time to find him a beautiful female leopard. Even I find it hard to deal with an angry single leopard. |
|
| Ju | Valentines Day | Shhh--Don't speak. When the merry jig begins, just put your hands here... A little lower... There, just like that. Now follow my steps... One, two, three, spin... Hehe, if only our friendship were like this dance, always having wiggle room no matter what the other person does. That would be nice. |
|
| Toru Asakura | Valentines Day | Here, chocolate... Although, maybe a Riichi Bet would be a better gift for the occasion? |
|
| Madoka Higuchi | Valentines Day | This is a small token of my appreciation for all the help you've given me. I didn't know what flavor you'd like, so I just got the best-selling one. Hopefully it'll be good. |
|
| Koito Fukumaru | Valentines Day | F-For you. Ah, under the chocolate there's... a ticket to our show tonight... I-I-I know a lot of idols are performing in One Han City today, so... so... be sure to really think about which one to go to. |
|
| Hinana Ichikawa | Valentines Day | Aha, it's Valentine's Day... The chocolates rolled out for the holiday in One Han City all look sooo tasty. Wanna come try them all with me? I'm so excited I can barely stand it! |
|
| Yuan Xiao | Valentines Day | Hey, kind soul, do you want to hang out today? Yes, it's, well... umm, isn't it a holiday today? You mustn't have any other plans, right? Right? In that case, do you want to celebrate today with me and Huo Guo? I promise you'll have an incredibly good time! |
|
| Fei Ming | Valentines Day | I've never really paid much attention to this holiday before, but since it's here, I might as well join in the festivities. As for how exactly I do that... Why don't you show me? |
|
| Hua Yubai | Valentines Day | I've played the role of a wife in many operas, but outside of the theater... I wonder what real couples are like. Perhaps... they're like this? ...It's just that, with our hands entwined, it really feels like I've transformed into a snake and wrapped myself around you... Feeling shy now? I thought... you wouldn't have invited me to celebrate this holiday with you if you hadn't thought it through. |
|
| Hua Yuqing | Valentines Day | In the past, I definitely would have spent a holiday this special with Yubai, but things are different now. I couldn't just leave you all on your own, could I? Not that this means you're more important to me than my sister! At most, you're... At most you're equally important. Okay? Let's leave it at that before you ask me something silly like "If Yubai and I fell into the water, who would you save?" I can't swim, so I wouldn't be saving anyone. So, let's steer clear of the pools and head out for a cozy dinner date instead! |
|
| Sakura Matou | Valentines Day | It's Valentine's Day. Will you be giving someone a gift, {name}? If you're going to make a dessert from scratch, I'd be happy to lend you a hand. |
