11/04/2022 Umeda Kame, Senior Reporter After my past interview with Bao Koji, I found Alex Koji, former mayor! Seeing as Bao had A LOT to say about the family, I decided to see if Alex had anything to say in the matter. Trust me, he has a lot to say also. I find thing whole interview quite interesting, and I'm sure you will too! **[RECORDING START]** U.K:“Alright Koji, we all know the news of your brother's return… to start this off, what was your original thought hearing this?” A.K: “Well . .. To be entirely honest, sincere, and transparent . . . It was something along the lines of ‘Oh for fucks sake’. It wasn’t exactly a joyous headline to look at.” U.K: “I’d assume so, Bao did abuse his daughter, and from what I’ve heard around...

─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── With the season of Spring being upon us, Japan is submerged in festivals, traditions, and events. Of all the seasons, Spring is likely the one most people find enjoyable. But what exactly does Spring, and April in general, bring us? For the spiritual residents of Karakura, I’m bringing up a full report of this month's horoscope so you know exactly what to expect throughout the weeks ahead of us. Like Spring itself, the horoscopes of April make for a refreshing start to the year. The last few horoscopes have given most signs a rough time, but April is the break we all need. And it truly is a refreshing start, because April 1st started...

Good day Karakurian’s, Kaz here! A few weeks ago, I had the great honors of interviewing, from what I learned, the most intelligent and passionate woman ever. Her devotion and her brilliance are unbeatable and absolutely blew me away. I present to you, Kimitsu Koji. Enjoy! And yes, the interview is a bit out of date. Sue me. [!] - The interview started but unlike before. It was a video recording, meaning you saw every gesture, every movement, and every smile the two shared. “Thank you once more, Mrs. Koji, for allowing me to have this interview, I know you're a busy woman, so this is quite the honor.” K.D K. K: The woman maintained her straight posture, with her hands resting neatly in her lap. “Of course. . I’m grateful for the...

09/04/2022 Umeda Kame, Senior Reporter Say, do you happen to remember one of the most political public trials of this year? No? Perhaps it slipped your mind or you were not relevant enough to know what really happened. Well, I shall inform you of it! Bao Koji stood as a pillar of the community. As one of three Governors, he saw the inner political workings of Karakura on a daily basis. However, his fall from grace was anything but elegant. A female named Saeko Koji, the daughter of Bao, and a few of her friends were caught in an argument with Mister Koji, resulting in… a slap to Saeko with a riding crop. An object Bao has been seen with it plenty of times. However, Saeko was not the one to come forward, in actuality, detective...

Breaking News! It’s just been brought to my desk, the official information that Alex Koji has now resigned from his position as mayor, giving over his power of the city to the man himself. Mike Akihito. This sudden change raises a lot of questions. Why did Koji resign? What is Mike Akihito’s plan? Will the government take a more hands-on approach to issues? Stay tuned as we follow this wild ride that we call Karakura’s politics! [!] - A video would be played, facing Mike as he walked up the stairs to the town hall. After an incoherent question, he would answer: “For the past few years, Karakura had its ups and downs, but for as small of an island as it is, it has never fallen. I, with the help of the community, will make sure this...

Hello everyone, It’s your favourite reporter Nakashi Uehara and today we are going to be talking about the subject, Interior design. What is Interior design some of you may ask, well let me give you a brief summary of what it is. Interior design is different types of designs for inside your home and some of them can range from very modern to some also being very bohemian. There are a lot of different types of interior you can choose from and it mostly comes down to what interests you aesthetically. Since there is loads of different types to choose from most people's homes are decorated differently and in some ways they are unique so I took a visit to some of the houses owned by you citizens of Karakura to scrutinize and see what...

———————————————————————————————————————————— ———————————————————————————————————————————— 03/28/22 - Written by, Kohana Sakurako at Karakura News. Everyone has their own general opinion on the way the schooling program is led in our town Karakura, however, not many people are confident enough to broadcast their opinion or even speak out privately. In this interview, I sat down with four college students. Aezysha Kjaer, Riku Adelaide, and two young ladies named Himari and Anaki. These are four impressive young adults who I personally believe will strive as they make their way into adulthood. Now, it's been some years since I have been in college let alone school. So, this article is to be informative for adults such as myself to...

___________________________________ ___________________________________ 03/22/22 - Written by, Kohana Sakurako at Karakura News. In the town of Karakura, one of the main tourist attractions is the Shinsei Seinaru Monastery, with many shrines and traditional customs. However, most citizens do not know much about this extravagant Monastery. I spoke with one of the Maidens at this very location, Miss Ukiyo. She and I spoke on how they are preparing for this Spring and what events take place within the shrines during this season. “Well, Spring holds a lot of importance in the fact that a number of Rituals and traditions are held to drive away previous year's bad fortunes, and evil spirits for the coming year.” Miss Ukiyo informed me...

How’s it going, citizens of Karakura? I hope you are all doing well. My name is Kazuo DeLuca, new Head-Reporter for Karakura News! Kaz for short, though. As I’ve come out of the blue, I chose to start with a bang. My first interview since returning to Karakura was with our beloved Mayor Alex Koji. All I can say is that it was informative and maybe confirmed something you guys have been speculating about. Enjoy! [!] - A beep let itself be heard, signaling that the recording had started. “Now, the first question for you, Mr. Mayor. What made you want to get active in Karakura’s political scene? You started off as Governor, so there had to be some motivating aspect.” K.D A. K: “Ah, of course. My first introduction to politics was...

21/03/2022 Nakashi Uehara Hello Citizens of Karakura! Tonight I have decided to take a visit to the prominent Mr Herrington down at the fight club and ask him a few questions on how this Mysterious business of his is running and what it will look like for us in the future so we all have a teaser of what's to come in the business but before all that I want to give you all a brief story on how the fight club became a thing and what its like to this day. It all started when a group of people started to fight in the dojo for fun they all found it rather exhilarating and loved to do it, word eventually got around about it and people went crazy and fell in love with fighting soon the dojo was packed with people day in day out, soon the dojo...

21/02/22 Meikan Masuo Hi guys! Tonight, I snagged an interview with one of eight new police cadets added to the mighty-fine roster of the greatest, and only police department in the area. So maybe they’re not as great as I thought. Oh well… I hope you enjoy my more serious approach to these interviews. I want to squeeze out all of the information that some of you citizens may want to find out. That’s why I am here, after all. Helping you guys out. Anyway, take some time to listen!! Seriously, I’ve upped my questioning game for my interviews. MM: “So, Cadet! Could you give me your name, maybe even your age for everybody listening in?” SV: “Sure thing, my name is Sasha Vasylenko, and I’m currently 28 years old.” MM: “Okay, Sasha...

Hello Karakura! It’s your favorite person, Sea KIrigaya! Today we’ll be going through the different gangs and organizations and the KPD's view on them, along with an interview with the mayor THE FUEL Crime is nothing new to Karakura due to its already raw and normal nature, to us that is. If you think about it, hearing the phrase “Someone just got killed!” is really a brush over for anyone who’s lived in Karakura long enough to build a tolerance for it, and that’s not a good thing either. While cops are trying their best to somewhat suppress or control the never-ending spike in crime, I do feel like it is possible with the help of the citizens and first-hand witnesses of these crimes. The extinction of Karakura will be the...

23/02/2022 TOMOCHIN TAIKAN Good evening Karakura News, this is Tomochin Taikan with some rather perplexing news. We had hoped that any targeted attacks or severe crime would be on the low ever since the life-threatening Kishi situation, however something completely devastating has posed a threat to Karakura. Apart from the police force, we know of few individuals that have legal possessions of firearms within the bounds of the city - however as of recent more and more incidents of gun-wielding individuals causing threat have been uncovered. This leads us to just last night where there was a shooting within one of Karakura’s towers. Kurabu Tower, owned by Ena Sang, suffered a shooting quite suddenly. An unidentified helicopter...

Rosalie Martin here reporting on the latest debut. The perception of paranormal life, or rather death, has perplexed people for centuries. While some are firm believers, there has also been an array of skeptics. While reported sightings of ghostly encounters are slim in the city of Karakura, one place seems to have been attracting the attention of many. Masamuru Subway Station. After some time spent digging to ascertain information as to what caused the station's collapse, all that could be found was an old new report from 05’. According to the report, in September of that same year two students were trapped beneath the rubble of the station. Out of resent, some assume the spirits of those two young teens lerk the station preying...

9/3/22 Umeda Kame Hello, cool citizens of Karakura!! Yesterday I was feeling a little quirky and nosey and decided to send out a poll asking you all how life was in Karakura. The poll was strictly anonymous, and even with the results I’ve ensured your identity to be hidden. Besides all of that, here are those cool results! Starting off with the ages. I kind of hated that there were actually kids who took this, oh well. The average age was 20-22, normal to be honest. Those kids are more into this stuff than others. Next, I asked you guys where you were born….. But that was in all honesty a filler question.!! However, the average was Japan!! Next was home information, pretty simple. SURPRISINGLY!! You guys aren't homeless, happy...

21/02/22 Umeda Kame Y’ello citizens!! Are you interested in sharing homes and finding new friends… but don't have an apartment or friends to room with, or just plain poor? Well, with new arrivals to Karakura Real Estate, they introduced shared housing! Now you don't have to worry about needing friends to room with anymore, nor having a good-sized home or apartment when broke! With 12 brand new houses, the same model as the others to fit with the Karakura core, fully furnished and customizable rooms. Each house has 2-4 rooms in each, a small section for storage and other basic necessities! Each room costs ¥25,000 every 30 days, and the whole house is shared per tenant! I, myself, have toured a few of these houses. The backyards are...

25 February 2022 Mami Mio Lulu Yu is perhaps one of the greatest icons of modern Karakura, but what does she think about the current state of the world? A twenty-four year old entrepreneur, operating one of the largest and most valuable businesses in the city, her influence and girlbossery is undeniable. The footage cut to Mami Mio sitting alone in the interview room, the clock beside her facing the camera, reading 13:32. M.M “Readers, listeners, and watchers. I am here with no one. Lulu Yu is late, but no worries, I haven’t a doubt in my mind that she’ll be with us soon. As a girlboss, her schedule must be busy.” Finally, Lulu Yu arrives. M.M “Good afternoon, Mrs. Lulu Yu. Tell us a little bit about yourself, please, what store do...

17/02/22 Tomochin Taikan and Meikan Masuo Hey guys! Meikan here. I'm finally back from my short break. Hopefully, you didn't miss me, haha! Today, myself and Tomochin have finished working on the report about Valentine's Day! Hope you enjoy readin' our precious work! To start off, I will be discussing the history of Valentine's Day and why it is celebrated. Saint Valentine was a third-century Roman saint, who is commemorated in Western Christianity on the 14th of February (or the 6th of June for eastern orthodoxy). The day named after him is a day for courtly love. If you didn’t know, St. Valentine worked as a clergyman, being a priest alongside that who ministered Christians who were persecuted. The rules set by the Roman Empire...

13/02/22 Umeda Kame Alright, folks! Since the tragic death of the ex-commissioner, a new one came into the office! Today I’m giving you guys a little insight on his thoughts and opinions about things. As well as a few personal questions! U.K: "Cool cool!" Pressed the red button on her phone screen. She placed her phone on the side of the couch. "Kay, Soo... What's ya full name and formal position and stufff...?"" Y.S: "Yonio Schwartz, current Commissioner of the Karakura Police Department, oh- and I'm also 35 U.K: "Cool coool.. So, what's 'ya overall opinion on the job? Is it stressful? Or is it like, sup'a dup'a easy." Y.S: "Well . . . I can feel that the role of Commissioner has heavily restricted my movement in the force to...
