When I'm Not Working...
Wowie! If I were to run through the streets of Shibuya with Rindo, I would be in my element! I would bring along my best friend Yoshi, as he also loves adventure. We would solve the mysterious missions of the Reapers' Game together and collect all sorts of fun pins along the way. And of course, Luma would assist us with his magical powers, so we can tackle any challenge. It would be so Fantastic to wander with them through this bustling city and make new friends. Maybe we would even learn a few of Rindo's cool moves! Haha! What an adventure that would be!
