Rui Shinichi | Warakuma Arcade

Finally released from their grip, he took a few deep breaths before speaking normally again. It appears even more people were crowding around as well, also acquaintances of these two. Before that, everyone was raring and ready to play, the game was still set in character select at the moment, it looks like whoever was on the other side had left too. These arcade machines were like anywhere you would find in Japan, they'd simply be two machines back to back, so you wouldn't see your opponent on the other side. The feeling of it was great, no distractions, only the game. There were a few other machines here too, so around six people can play at any one time... The crowd forming around here was getting a bit much, he thought he spotted someone moving towards these machines, maybe it was his imagination though. However with the newcomers introductions were a polite formality required here, so he complied.

"It's nice to meet you all as well...I'm Rui Shinichi, your names are...?", he said, referring to the two newly arrived acquaintances. Sachiko was kind enough to mention his name to them, but he had yet to hear theirs.
