Cross Academy Broadcasting Club #3 – Kiryuu Zero

---

Hey! Yuuki! Open the door!

I didn’t hear anything about hosting the show. Isn’t objective of this show to provide some interaction between the Day Class and the Night Class? Why must I, from the Day Class, do this? If we have to do it, isn’t it good enough to let the eager Aidou-senpai or Ichijou-senpai do whatever they wish? The Chairman must have purposely hid this from me.

Ah? What are you shouting, Yuuki. You can’t be heard when you’re making noise in the mixer room. Ah? What’s it this time? Gestures? The-mike-is-connected-everything-is-being-broadcast…! It’s on purpose. I, who had been hoping for the Chairman to use some common sense when doing things, have been defeated.

This is Cross Academy, where humans and vampires study together. The evening moment when the Day Class and Night Class switch over. Where are the voices that I’m hearing coming from…

Vampire Knight Cross Academy Broadcasting Club

Ah, I have to read this? I’ll just get through with this quickly.

To everyone listening to this broadcast, good evening, this is Zero. I don’t understand what’s the point of this. What? Ichijou-senpai who’s in the mixer room, what kind of smiling face are you putting on while showing that sketchbook*. “I thought that there were some unpleasant things in your report earlier. Even if this is difficult, there was no excuse.” Ah, whatever. Acting like a director. Fine. I’ll just continue reading where I left off. (* The actual word used was kanpe, which is a large sketchbook used to relay messages during filming and the like.)

I hope that everyone from the Day Class will enjoy listening, and be perfectly satisfied with our service. Please look forward to the broadcast. Here’s a kiss. Kiss…!  What kind of script is this?! *tears furiously* “Do it with a lot of feelings.” That’s absurd! This script is definitely written by the Chairman. I don’t know what the Chairman lets the Night Class do, but this has nothing to do with me. I have repeated this many times. Geez. Fine, I got it. I’ll do it, but in my own way.

This broadcast that started for the sake of friendship between the Day Class and the Night Class… somehow I, the prefect, became in charge of it this time. If we didn’t create an opportunity for interaction with the members of the Night Class, the students would erupt with displeasure, so the core members of the Night Class take turns to host the broadcast. I don’t know how come I became included amongst these members. There’s probably no one who will feel happy while listening to me on the radio.

“The Chairman would be delighted.” Huh… whatever… this family. This radio show is based on the mails sent by listeners from the Day Class, and after the first 2 broadcasts, we were flooded with mails. In place of the person who started this, I thank everyone.

[Today’s Homework]

Well, next is “Today’s Homework”. What kind of corner is this…

The content: The members of the Night Class who appear on the Cross Academy Broadcasting Club… this…  I don’t think I can not read these names… Kuran Kaname, Aidou Hanabusa, Kain Akatsuki, Ichijou Takuma, Shiki Senri, and myself, Kiryuu Zero, what will the six of us do when we meet a certain problem. Ah, it was explained during the first broadcast. This is interesting. In any case, this is a corner where you think of what the 6 of us will do. Today’s topic is “Excuses when you were late for school”.

This submission is from someone with the pen name Hiraimochan00-san.

Zero: I overslept. Well, I certainly have slept in late when patrolling dragged on [the night before].

Kaname: I was late because I was accompanying a heretic. There’s no reason to have this kind of person as your companion.

Takuma: I picked up a stray cat. However, what happened to that cat after that is unknown…

Hanabusa: I was watching a self-produced PV of Kaname-sama. Aidou-senpai is such an idiot. Well, it cant be helped. He doesn’t think of the people around him.

Akatsuki: I was silently waiting for Hanabusa. Please pay attention.

Senri: I had modeling work. Is that so?

Could you be someone from my class? I felt that you covered the excuses of the Night Class seniors would give nicely.

[This Week’s Student Discussion Room]

Eh, the next corner is “This Week’s Student Discussion Room”. This is a corner were we answer questions that have been troubling our listeners. No one seems to remember the things I usually say as the prefect. “How can I sneak into the Mood Dorm?”, “I wish to get hold of the Night Class uniform.”, “Please tell me Kuran Kaname’s phone number.”… it’s full of such mails. You won’t get near the Night Class by making so much noise and being so thoughtless. Even if you feel annoyed or curse me, I won’t give in. I will not answer such questions, and there are no exceptions.

Geez, what’s with it over there! Yuuki and Ichijou-senpai both look as though they have eaten something bitter.

Moving on, a contribution from someone with the pen name Minimini-san. Right now, my high school uniform skirt can be worn in 2 ways, long and short. I prefer short, but if it was everyone else, would you prefer wearing the skirt long or short? (Long refers to the normal uniform-approved length, while the short version means that the skirt has been rolled up.)

This is the problem? Is this something that’s troubling everyone? I think both are fine; as long as it’s acceptable within the school rules, just wear what you like. Is this helpful? Well, this isn’t exactly something to be troubled about? For the other prefect, her troubles seem to all disappear after eating her fill and sleeping all night. She can forget and go on with her life easily. (Literally “She has a convenient head”.) Well, even after becoming an adult, there’s also a certain Chairman who doesn’t seem to have any troubles. Looking at him makes you feel that having troubles is nothing but a kind of loss.

[Famous Scene Chat Night]

Okay, let me see, the next corner is “Famous Scene Chat Night”.

I don’t believe it, is this a joke? Even absurdity has its limits. Only Aidou-senpai or Ichijou-senpai would consider doing something like this. This is a corner where the listener’s favourite phrases from the currently broadcasting Vampire Knight make a reappearance. Eh, I have to reproduce this here? Ah, there was a time when somone was complaining while doing this.

But wait, Yuuki, this isn’t the job of a host. Who would do something so embarrassing? I will absolutely, absolutely not do it. Eh? “Since this is a project given by the school, if you do it properly, your truancy, sleeping in class, and other offences you have accumulated will be written off as a special case. If you refuse, you will have 3 hours of supplementary lessons after school for a month.”

Mm, I’ll do it. Unlike Yuuki, my grades have never fallen even though I cut classes. This sort of threat made within authority… if I refuse to give in to your threat, you’ll tell the Chairman. Yuuki, what’s wrong? You have such a complicated expression. When did Kuran Kaname appear beside Yuuki? What? What is it that you are writing so slowly? Looking at Kuran-senpai writing on a sketchbook seems like a joke.

Huh, what? “Inconveniencing Yuuki like that, so you’ve become mighty, right.” Kuran-senpai, when you were the host, you weren’t willing to do it either. As it might be expected from the dorm president, you’re extremely harsh to others. I’ve got it.  Whatever is fine. I want to finish this quickly. Which scene should I do? Huh?! N- no way… doing this scene at this sort of place. What is it, Dorm President Kuran. The sketchbook again?

“I did it with ease, but you won’t be able to, right?” Did with ease? After the first broadcast, you didn’t step out of your room for a whole day. I understand! I’ll do it, fine, I’ll do it! Seriously!

*Clears throat* “Don’t get any closer.” Why is it this line? Next, eh- next is this?!

*Clears throat* “Kill me with your own hands.” How terrible, why is it this. Ah, why did I have 2 lines? Isn’t just one enough?

Yuuki, the sketchbook? “Ichijou-senpai put in 2 lines at my request. Sorry, Zero.” You thought that you’ll be forgiven as long as you apologise?!

[This Week’s Event Information]

Information on the DVD release and anime. Segment ends around 17.09.

I’m finally done with this. I don’t know about the listeners, but I’m very, very tired. Well, this is the end of my time as the host. It will be those guys from the Night Class talking again from the next show on. Isn’t everyone happy? The information I didn’t manage to convey today will be published on our program’s homepage on the Onsen website. You can also send mails from the website, so please check it out. Vampire Knight Cross Academy Broadcasting Club, this has been me, Kiryuu Zero.

Eh-! It ended. You don’t have any complaints right? Kuran-senpai, leave quickly with Yuuki.
