That makes two of us...well in the sense no one wanted to be my friend at the school at first apart from Ryuji.

[Crocked teachers and politicians spreading rumors will do that to you.]

Souji does seem like the type of guy who would do that. Being a calm leader, that is, and accept friends despite what others might say about them. I can't say I was completely calm when we ended up on the metaverse.

[Especially since they got captured and Ryuji was nearly killed in front of him.]

So, what are you going to do with your newfound freedom, Yosuke?
