Tsurara: What's with them...
Encho: It's your basic game of tag.
Rikuo: OI...!!

Encho: From now on, you will be attacked by a populace of ten million people.
Encho: Humans are really such a dreadful existence.
Encho: So eager to blame their own misfortune on something else.
Encho: Even moreso now than in the past, rumors spread quickly because of their evil nature. If they believe it will save them, they don't mind lies or falsehoods.
Encho: The humans you believe in and live among... this is the sort of creatures they are.

[p014]

Encho: Oops
Encho: Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Encho.
