After Osada (as Masaru Onmitsu) shouts, "It's time for School Hide-and-Seek!" and the excitement reaches its peak, the guests are introduced. Production: Osada hypes up the crowd saying, "We have special guests today!" and the guests walk out from the edge of the gym or the wings of the stage amidst the students' cheers. Hiding Side (Kagi Team): Members of Shimofuri Myojo, Chocolate Planet, and Hanako, plus the guests (M!LK). Usually, 6 to 9 people hide. Searching Side (Student Team): The entire student body of the school. In large schools, this can involve thousands of people. Facilitator: Osada from Chocolate Planet serves as the "Chairman of the New Japan Hide-and-Seek Association, Masaru Onmitsu," giving hints to the students and encouraging them.
