[The video starts with a handsome young man, smiling at the camera.]

Hello, fellow otherworlders! My name is Ren Jinguji. I come from a place called Japan, on planet Earth. I'm an idol, so my talents at saving worlds are rather limited, but I'm going to try my best anyway.

[That's a quick introduction, but he does have something to say while he's here.]

So, I think several of us have been to "other worlds", similar to this one. I think it might be a good thing to get a bit of an idea just how many of these worlds there even are.

[Who knows, people might find others who they hadn't even realized had been there.]

The world's I've visited are called Prismatica and Avalon. That's already two that aren't this place.

Prismatica had a system that was rather similar to here, where touch was involved, but as a world it was quite different. Avalon, on the other hand, was like straight from the tales of King Arthur... but with an addition of technology.

[Those are mostly just simple summaries. He will likely elaborate if asked.]

So, what are your world hopping experiences?

I apologize for the fact that my experiences are not entirely the same. I've never encountered a world that was stealing and holding the residents of others before. At least, not in this way.

But I am no stranger to journeying between worlds: "World hopping," as you described it.

[Actually, this sort of thing is his domain. He's supposed to prevent worlds from bumping into each other or 'leaking' in this manner. But he's too ashamed to admit it right away.]

[saxsongs]

No need to apologize. I'd say the more different sort of experiences we have, the better we can deal with the situation.

So, can you journey between worlds as you please?

[spacialeyes]

Yes, sir. So long as my mind is active, I am able to move this body between worlds as necessary.

[And sometimes on accident. But he doesn't want to talk about that.]

I'm sorry to hear that the same has happened to you, but against your will.

[saxsongs]

That's interesting. And I definitely prefer that there's consent involved.

[He would have liked someone asking if he wanted to go.]

Thank you, but I am starting to get used to it.

[spacialeyes]

That isn't something that you should have to get used to.

[He has to hold his tongue to avoid getting irritated with himself in public. But Yuuto does feel some guilt. Something like himself is supposed to prevent these sorts of things from happening, after all. He knows that Ren's situation isn't his fault, but he can't help but be a bit irritated about it all the same.]

I'm unable to use my power as usual here, so it's likely that this space and time are outside my reach. It seems that I'm a visitor much like yourself... But for something like this to happen to you multiple times is unacceptable. I'm sorry.

[saxsongs]

Hey, you do know it's not at all your fault, even if you have a power relating to traveling between worlds? You should beat yourself over it. We're all now in the same situation and should just look for ways to help so we can all eventually return where we came.

[His smile is rather gentle.]

Besides, I've met a lot of wonderful people during my time.

[spacialeyes]

I see.

Yes, you're right. It's no good for me to worry about worlds outside of my reach either. Then I may never stop worrying... [He tries to tell himself that this means that he can let go of his guilt, but it isn't working. Yuuto is the type of person who worries endlessly, even about things he can't control.]

Pardon me. My manners were quite poor just now. My name is Yuuto. It's a pleasure to meet you... Jinguji-san?

[saxsongs]

It's a pleasure to meet you as well, Yuuto-kun. You can call me Ren, if you want to. I prefer it to my last name a lot more.

[Even if he's come more in terms with it, his first name was still better.]

How have you found this world so far?

[spacialeyes]

Ren-san, then? It's a pleasure for me as well. Thank you very much.

[First name basis is a lot..! Thinks Yuuto, who isn't generally allowed to give his surname.]

It's certainly a unique world. There are some similarities between this world and the one within which my sister was born, which have made it easier to adapt. I hope we're able to find a way to help the people here.

[saxsongs]

[It's a good way of making friends quickly.]

There are parts of the world that look very similar to my home, but most of it is very new. But I do agree, I hope we're really able to help with their situation. I have not dared to see what the segments are like, but the stories I've heard are quite a lot.
