[ the video starts and Kaneki has a small nervous smile because using video is always a bit awkward. He is in his apartment house in Maurtia Falls, with tons of books on the shelves behind him. ]

H-hello. We are almost in December, and I guess Christmas is very important here- [ he has noticed all those Christmas decorations and songs, yeah. It's all a bit overwhelming, but he is going to get into the Christmas spirit too ] So I was wondering if anyone would be up for a Christmas dinner? I never had one, neither hosted one, but I think it'd be nice and different.

Me and Katsuki live in Maurtia Falls, and we can host the dinner here at the beginning of the month after the Welcome Ceremony for new imPorts, maybe. For friends, and friends of friends. [ kaneki smiles wider ]

If anyone would like to bring food or drinks you can, but I will be the one cooking, I've been reading a little about popular Christmas dishes.

We only realize when we are surrounded by it, I guess.

[ kaneki does take a second to think about it at first ] I think Hanami. From the end of March to early May, cherry trees bloom all over the country, and so crowds gather to watch the flowers.

It's very beautiful.

I wish I'd had a chance to see it. I'd passed through Japan when I was younger, but it was just temporary, like— to be deployed for a mission, fight some giant sea monster, pose for a picture, and then fly home again. Not much opportunity to sight-see.

That's a shame. I wonder if it's possible for imPorts to visit other countries...

that way you could do more sight-seeing.

You're allowed to if you're registered -- for at least a few weeks, I think. I've never really travelled much here, though, apart from between the Gate cities or up to the moon.

Like normal tourism then-


[ a pause ] We can visit the moon? [ kaneki is aware there is a space-station there, and he is aware imPorts have even gone to Mars (the Kaneki who was here before did...), but he didn't know they could actually visit the Moon. ]
