But if he thinks he can keep the W Ultimate Power from me, he's got another think coming. Marvelous-tachi aren't the only color-coded team of idealists on this planet, and after the last frustrating encounter with Marvey-chan, I took a vacation, following rumors of this "W" team south from Tokyo.
"I like your city," I tell him, making conversation while he gathers himself. "The wind feels lovely."
