PROLOGUE

Seven years after the victory over Hao, Yoh Asakura, Anna Kyoyama, Manta Oyamada, Ren Tao, Horohoro Usui, and the rest of the gang meet again at the En Inn to celebrate New Year's together: two weeks of causing trouble in Tokyo, reminiscing, training, and finally being able to catch up after a long time. Horohoro's surprise guest, Miya, who is visiting her family in Tokyo at the same time, is immediately a welcome addition - at least to everyone except Ren, whose expectations for this get-together seem to be absolutely at odds with Horohoro's.
