In the spring of 2011, a young man named Yu Narukami stepped off a train to enter the small town of Inaba, to stay there for one year. During the year, he and his friends joined together to solve one of the most bizarre murder cases in recent memory.
However, during their investigation, the Investigation Team had to deal with his antics. They have compiled a list of what they think was and was not appropriate, and planned to give it to him by the end of the year to help him better himself. Now that the year is over, and spring is here once again, Yu must say goodbye to his friends and return to the city.
His friends gave him the list before he left, and this is what it said:
Things The Team Expect Yu Must Do While We Are Investigating The Midnight Channel
1. I will not try to turn the Midnight Channel into my personal late-night talk show.
2. We are your teammates, not your underlings.
3. Painting your Yu-Gi-Oh! cards blue does not turn them into Persona cards.
4. Painting Magic: The Gathering cards does not work either.
5. Even though it will look awesome, we are not going to duel while riding on our scooters.

After carefully reading the list, Yu then stared at entry no. 90 intently and called his contacts in the Kirijo Group to tell them what to do with one of their robots. He then brought out a pen and started to list possible guests for his future talk show.
AN: That was quick, wasn't it?
