Mysterious Restoration Rider M

K-kinnooobbu!?

Master! Some mysterious group is taking out Kinnobus at an incredible rate!

You Kinnou Shishi are all dead! Every last one of you!

Are you a Kinnou Shishi? You are, aren't you!?

Aah! N-no, I'm not! I promise! S-somebody, help meee!

You know, looking at what we're doing here, I have to ask: Are we the bad guys?

Well, this is basically how people treated us in Kyoto, too.

By the way, Saito, how come you're going by Fujita here?

Hey, it's the Restoration, right? So I thought I'd go by the name I used later on.

Wait, hang on. We're the Restoration Shinsengumi now!? Are you really okay with that, Vice Commander!?

Restoration or not, I'm still Shinsengumi!

Right. Of course. That's just the kind of guy you are, isn't it, Vice Commander?

Well, we started cutting down Kinnou Shishi after Takasugi asked us to handle the Restoration City's security...

...and now, for some reason, all the civilians are treating us like we're an evil organization or something.

Yeah, I guess we are.

But I will at least say that good and evil are often a matter of perspective.

？！

Hold it right there, Restoration Shinsengumi!

Who goes there!?

Master, there! On top of that building!

The evil Takasugi Industries modified me after I dozed off while I was reading a book.

Then they told me I need to defeat monsters out here to earn enough regulation points to get my original body back.

And for that odd reason, I'm out here fighting for justice because I have no other choice! I'm known as...

Mysterious Restoration Rider M!

I'm not quite at the point where I'm looking to do whatever it takes to make an appearance, but when I think about how I barely show up once a year now...

Well, there's only so much I can take.

Please don't. I'd really rather none of my relations found out about this.

？！

Do you know that lady, Master?

No. He does not. Please leave it at that.

Hang on. Why are we being treated like monsters?

First we had to fight those modified Kiheitai soldiers, now we're the Restoration Shinsengumi? I don't even know what's happening anymore.

As a Kinnou Shishi, I can't let you live, but I can definitely live with your rack!

Knock it off!

And seriously, THIS is the best they could do with the Shinsengumi this time?

Well, at least I'll always have the memories of the huge part we played in Yamataikoku.

No, seriously. The Shinsengumi, playing a huge part in Yamataikoku? I really don't know what's going on anymore.

Anyway, I say we team up to take this Restoration Shinsengumi down!

Thank you. That's great to hear.

Whatever you do, you mustn't tell my sisters about this, please!

？！

Also, if it's not too much to ask, I'd really appreciate it if you'd consider the brave choice of NOT making an offer every now and then!
