(Now December 11th!)
(Now December 11th!)
Starting from midnight til’ 9:00 Wednesday morning, A holiday meet and greet occurred at the center of the shopping district at the tree of Eden. Santa, his beloved wife, and a select few of elves set up an area for the public of Karakura City to meet their favorite holiday characters. Here we saw a large peppermint seat surrounded by snowmen that you could sit upon to meet Santa! The area was fenced in and seemingly guarded by an elf who called themself, “Securiety” elf. Name wise, Ill go into the elves we saw later.
For once we found an event that wasn't civilian oriented, instead we saw frontline workers and students alike standing beside one another eager to meet Santa himself! Even beloved pets came along for the ride to meet santa. Most notably, the more popular people who attended were about three KPD workers, a former professor and some school faculty.
While reporting and getting interviews, I asked some of the event attendees what they wanted for christmas! Majority oddly enough, said yen, which shouldn't be much of a surprise, the second most popular answer was to be able to see and or spend time with family. Lastly the third most popular response I heard was tied between two very.. Drastically different things. That being, to find their true love and to find out if Santa was truly real.
Besides beloved characters and citizens of karakura alike, there is one more prominent figure that we saw there that Wednesday day .. and it was the one and only Grinch! Seen throwing snowballs at KPD and santa from the branches of the Tree of Eden, The Grinch made several surprise appearances throughout the event.
Speaking of the Grinch, I was lucky enough to swoon the grinch down from his beloved Eden tree to actually come with me for an interview away from the outstanding crowd. On the Televised and online newspaper I will post and show the video of the interview I recording with the Grinch, as for those reading this on the hardcopies, below Ill ad a transcripted version.
[!] - It was more than an audio recording. But a video! Unless youre reading the newspaper .. then this is all narrative through words! -
[Yasushi:] “Here is fine .. away from the crowd.”
[!] the Grinch’s belly was popping out a little, his hand going over it to scratch it.
[Grinch:] “I know I'm fabulous ..”
[Yasushi:] “Ahem, so, Mr. Grinch .. Tell me, or us, Why exactly do you hate the holidays so drastically?”
[Grinch:] “WHY?”
[Yasushi:] “Did I stutter? Yes, Why do you hate it?”
[Grinch:] “Well, I think thats obvious.”
[!] The Grinch smacked his lips together, his hips popping out a little.
[Grinch:] “All this holly jolly CRAP needs to stay out of this city! I hear enough of the ear screeching songs, and on top of that - I want everything to myself~!”
[Yasushi:] “May I ask why?”
[!] ..The video shifted as the Grinch sprung up, his ear going over to the wall as he shushed Yasushi .. then he ran out!
[Grinch:] “We Shall continue this later! I need to stop the noise!”
[!] - Recordings ends as well, Seems Jim was pushed to the side by the Grinch and it stopped the recording -
Before you assume .. No, I did not get to finish that interview due to following events which I’ll speak about towards the end.
Before moving onto the more exciting events, I must give some attention to the several elves we saw that helped make this event beloved by all, happen. According to my own findings and eye witness accounts, there were four elves. Below Ill list their “Names”.
-Securiety Elf
-Impatient Elf
-Angry Elf
-Cool Elf
As can be inferred by their names, you can imagine what each did or how each acted. Security elf did security, Impatient elf impatiently waited for things to be done, Angry elf was viscous and cool elf actually was on stage and gave me an interview.
[!] - The audio cuts in seemingly right as he got permission for the interview. This was simply just audio, no video for this interview. -
[Yasushi:] “Great, Great .. For starters, about what time would you say this event started?
[“Cool’ Elf:] “Well this event started mid-night - of course!”
[!] Elf being hit with snowball is heard, but ignored
[Yasushi:] “I understand, what time would you, if any, consider the busiest point so far?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “Around thirty minutes after.”
[Yasushi:] “Of course, Thank you. So far, has anything gone off track perhaps? Any incidents?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “weellllllllll……”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “The Grintch has come in and messed up a few things! He even .. Kidnapped me!! How outrageous ..”
[Yasushi:] “The Gringe ..?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “GRINTCH!’
[“Cool’ Elf”] “Furry-beast he is”
[Yasushi:] “Right ,, ‘Grintch’, my bad.. How was this ‘Grintch’ tried to ruin things?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “Hes thrown snowballs at Santa, hit people with snow balls, and has tried to ruin photos!’
[!] sound of an office falling on snow behind them .. could be heard.. Ironic timing, isn't it?
[Yasushi:] “...So nothing too major then? The usual ‘Grintch’ behavior?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “Indeed! Hes a coward!”
[Yasushi:] “Coward or Forcibly outcatsed?”
[!] awkward pause in the audio .. you can feel the eyes of the “cool” elf staring at Jim before they paused to announce briefly to the crowd theyre closing up soon. Right after, the Grinch seemed to have showed himself. His distance laughter is heard as teenagers did fake screams of horror!
[Yasushi:] “Ahem .. Speak of the devil. Anyway, Elf .. lastly I must ask, what do you want for christmas?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “....”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “What I want?”
[Yasushi:] “yes.”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “for my siblings to stop being violent! Thats all!”
[Yasushi:] “Violent? Can you elaborate?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “Elfs (Elves) cant get gifts! They are, all strong!”
[???:] “I HIT THE BIG GUY!”
[???:] “WOOO!”
[Yasushi:] “I see, but how so are you siblings violent?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “GO AWAY GRINTCH!”
[Yasushi:] “-”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “They like what they (the siblings), and take it too seriously!”
[!] noises of the grinch dramatically falling can be heard .. but again it was ignored by Yasushi
[Yasushi:] “..Are these siblings of yours violent towards tge kids perhaps due to them taking it seriously?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “Nah, the intruders!”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “They love kids!”
[Yasushi:] “Intruders as in the ‘Grintch’? Or troublesome teens?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “I'm not sure!”
[!] screaming match between the Grinch and security elf insued, Jim paused the interview til’ it quieted down a bit.
[Yasushi:] “..Well, thank you for your time, but I must ask as per usual, do you have anything to say to the media? Public? Santa himself?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “We will be back again! And make sure to be good to get a gift this Christmas season!”
[Yasushi:] “I understand, thanks again for your time, ah, what shall I refer to you by? Simply elf?”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “Umm.. Im the cool elf!!”
[Yasushi:] “..Of course”
[“Cool’ Elf:] “And DJ-Photographer multi specialist”
[Yasushi:] “...Great.. Good day. Stay safe, cool elf.”
As you heard in the background, this was no quiet or calm event! Elves, Grinch and citizens alike were all busy with their own things .. between falling in snow, being pelted by snowballs, meeting santa or participating in scream matches, there wasn't a dull moment ..
However, it all took a turn when the Grinch went too far. Wednesday, 8:46 AM. An actual kidnapping occurred, not like the one Cool elf described .. no, no. One where KPD was involved. I have the video of events that ill show now, as for those reading this on paper, below will be a written narration of what happened.
[!] A video began to play. It started with the Grinch jumping down to the chair .. The Grinch would look around for a few moments before snatching up who he thought was Santa clause! But alas, wasn't santa at all, but his wife! Mrs. Claus! He flung the
From here, the Grinch ran out the right exit of the shop district, aka the one other entrance that isn't from the forest and isn't the main entrance. The Grinch ran from there all the way down through plaza, in pursuit being an officer, obviously Jim recording, and several elfs. From the plaza, the video shows the Grinch doing a dead line from there down a main street road, all the way to the beach .. all the way passed the park, KPD, post office .. through the alleyway, the Grinch and those following him went.
Upon reaching
[Santa:] “You're on the naughty list this year.”
[Yasushi:] “I've been on there for a long time.”
[Santa:] “Why don't you try being a better person?”
[Yasushi:] “Long ago, I was. Then I learned the state of the world and began working for media. You can understand, can you?”
Soon the recording came to an end, the last seen was all the holiday character besides the Grinch standing by one another at the beach shore.
To put it simply, the Grinch was arrested .. then escaped custody, and somehow managed to be a wanted fugitive now for criminal kidnapping. Now this leaves the public with a few questions .. Were these all just actors beyond committed to their roles? Or did we manage to get the real Christmas cast with us that Wednesday morning? And did i .. somehow manage to agree to go out on a lunch .. date .. with the Grinch to continue our interview whenever he came back? Or is .. released? Who knows .. Who .. knows ..
Wednesday, December 10th was a day of events that was surely unstopping. Whether we had the real christmas cast with us is up for the public to determine, however we now can confirm one thing .. The Grinch has a criminal record and I, Jim yasushi, is signing out on the naughty list this year.
