Hey there. I'm Kousuke, and I have a few little things I'd like to impart to you. First off, like Rio already stressed, appearance means a lot in this business. I can pass for a casual teenager just about anywhere, and no one ever catches on to my insidious plots. Of course, it was kinda embarrassing when I met little Narumi and he had the EXACT SAME PIERCINGS AS ME. But hey… sometimes things happen that you can't help. I look cooler than that guy anyway.

My second lesson is a bit cliché: Honesty is the best policy… for losers! Hahaha! Who knows why people like Eyes insist on being honest yet vague when you can really just lie and trap your enemy to get rid of him? And hey, it's not like I'm a sore loser or anything, but sure, I'll trap someone in a room with a bunch of murderous bees if I feel the need to. Hey, we all have our little quirks.

Finally, keep your cards in your sleeves. Don't ever reveal things unless it's absolutely necessary. A little tease here and there can help keep your opponents close at hand and willing to negotiate, but never give any hand-outs. And… make sure you keep an eye on your fellow Blade Children. You never know when you'll need to bail them out of trouble.
