>Opening the thread brings you to a brightly colored 'net advertisement for what appears to be a convenience store chain, hawking… soybeans (?), and… log-like maki at /mind boggling/ bargain prices, in a last-ditch effort to make sales on or before Setsubun. Two mischievous looking oni (each with charm rivaling-- but not outranking-- that of Glitch City's own Major Thalia Chanka) dance playfully beneath the scrolling text and closely cropped photos of konbini stock.

>... You notice that if you let your cursor hover by those little devils for a second too long, they chase and eventually abscond with it-- only to drop it and recoil in terror when you click and scatter beans in their direction. Demons, out!! Fortune, in!!

>>735756 The trick is you don't eat em right away. You can make some pretty nice sweets out of them if you mix them up with sugar and the like. -Alix

>>735766 I have seen some nice recipes that need beans. I heard they make some nice sweet paste fillings for rice buns as well, but I've never actually tried that before. -Alix

>Scrolling further brings you to a section of the ad offering up the last of the chain's lucky bags for the year. They're divided into categories by their contents: household goods, snacks, cutesy novelty trinkets... the text boasts that the value of the prizes hidden within are nearly double the price of the bags themselves. What a steal!!

>At the very bottom of the ad, there's an advisory in miniscule print... something to do with the chain not being responsible for any ruined friendships or romances that may stem from customers choosing to chuck natto at the loved ones masquerading as hannya in their houses, rather than dried soybeans...?
