Arm the Homeless

Aika
"Most of what you'd probably name, I bet. Actually, give me a second."
He opens a drawer and hands you a binder. The pages inside contain pictures of various colors from dyes and bleaches.
"This is probably faster than listing them off," the man says.
Joan
A blindingly radiant arrow punches a hole straight through the enemy's mecha, tracing a glowing line through the air before it finally impacts with the floating ship in the distance.
The ensuing explosion that almost resembles a flower blooming marks the immediate collapse of the shield enclosing the Earth, and within moments, the familiar blue color begins to return to the sky.
Yukari
"Eh? That wasn't what you were talking about? Never mind then, forget I said anything."
Takeshi begins to put away his tools as he says that, apparently having finished his job on the scooter.
Tami, Hisako
"Yeah, should be. Oh, excuse me! Check please!"
Egusa-san takes out her wallet while calling a waitress over.

what is this thread

Tami, Hisako
Egusa-san laughs with a troubled expression.
"What's this, did you want permission from me first? Well, I won't stop you if you want to come up with a cool name. That sort of thing might help for some people. Kind of like war paint, probably?"
Aika
You step inside and are told to wait a moment after making your request. There's a brief exchange when the clerk calls out deeper into the salon.
"Chief, we have another one."
"Mm, it looks like all my subordinates are already occupied at the moment, so I guess I'll take care of this one myself."
"Chief, please don't refer to the other workers as your 'subordinates'. We'll all force you down and shave off your goatee if you persist."
"P-please don't! I meant that in an endearing way!!"
In any case, you're motioned over to a chair by a bespectacled man with blond swept-back hair and a goatee.
Yukari
"Huh? Are you talking about those boys by the river? I don't think there's anything weird about that one, probably just a bunch of reckless delinquents."

Upgraded battlestation with raspberry pi on top right.

[Oh, and crap
I forgot to update for Yukari
I'll do that tomorrow, sorry]

Aika
"Right, right. If you're so worried about that, start putting some half-empty plastic water bottles outside your apartment."
You arrive at a salon in the shopping district. Glancing inside from the window, it seems to be decently busy, but not packed.
Joan
"There's no helping this planet without the barrier! You'd throw away humanity's salvation for a reckless dream like that!?"
The enemy mecha opens fire with an overwhelming salvo of energy beams. Even with ace piloting skills, the barrage is too much for the protagonist's Atalanta to entirely evade, and several direct hits burn away at her armor. Even so, she pushes forward at max speed!
"Of course I would! There's no hope in being saved your way. Everyone is working so hard to press on into a new frontier.. it's dark, it's strange, and even a little scary, but I can see that it's still beautiful! For the sake of everyone's dreams, I'll never stop protecting our sky!!"
"Daaaaaaaaamn iiiiiiiit!"
"Golden Apple.. Breaker!!"

Tami, Hisako
"Heeeh? I see. So you like those kinds of dresses, then?"
It's subtle, but a bit of genuine curiosity creeps into Eiko's tone. It might be that she's happy to connect with one of her juniors for once.
Aika
"Don't back talk like that. As an upstanding neighborhood cat, I'm way above the games you middle schoolers play."
He quickly fades back into invisibility as the two of you go off on your stroll, so while you can still catch his remarks, he's basically out of sight for you.

Joan
Unfortunately, the quickly moving state of the anime industry has long displaced the kind of mecha show that you're looking for. The spirit of super robots is as omnipresent as always, however, and a quick check reveals that the next best series currently airing is a title called Constellation Express Calydon. It's a passionate work where the mecha-piloting heroines are caught in a struggle over the enigmatic and titular space elevator Calydon.
"What's going on? Her Argo-Index is still rising!?"
"Not yet.. I won't let this end just yet. I can still see the future that's waiting for us, a place along the stars that everyone is working towards! If you really want to block out our sky, then I'll smash that barrier of yours no matter what!!"
You can really feel the indomitable spirit in the main heroine's performance.
Hisako
You vaguely recall what it was telling you.
Basically, this is a time of hesitance, ambiguity, and mystery. You will face hardship as you try to find your path, and both aid and trickery from others may come your way, but it's also an opportunity to rebuild yourself and start anew. In the very end, victory is assured as long as you remain vigilant.
Tami, Hisako
Egusa-san holds up her palms as if to reassure Tami.
"Well, you know. I'm sure things'll be alright. Right, if we're done here, how about we go looking for a youma to fight then? You two need experience, right?"
She turns her gaze over to Hisako, who she isn't certain is really listening.
"..Kazuaki-san, hello, hello? ..Umm, Princess K? Oh right, I was actually wondering, what does the 'K' mean anyways?"
Egusa-san is probably asking simply to get Hisako's attention at this point.
Aika
"Going out? I thought you were going to wait for your precious sister to return home."
Nekomoto's voice follows you out the door as you begin to make your way to the shopping district.

Hisako
You find the last fortune near the middle of the book. This one was given a few weeks ago, so it's likely that you simply forgot to write down any others given afterwards.
It reads "Hermit, Judgement, Hierophant, Death, Moon, Chariot. Time of introspection, new beginnings, deep change, self-doubt and uncertainty. Seek out advisor, but beware of deceit. Success will come with hard work."
Tami
She continues looking at her textbook, so it doesn't seem like Kazuaki-san is any interested in answering your question.

[Joan can stay cause she's just a fake delinquent]

[No she doesn't
This is a no delinquent zone]

[Crunchyroll provides next to no services in grorious nippon
I actually doubt one could use any real english streaming sites for chinese cartoons over there]

[Joan fucking DIES because she's in grorious nippon now and should watch REAL shows like PrePure]

[Aika is LITERALLY the WORST]

Joan
Within some time, you arrive at your front door. Quietly stepping inside, the house is completely silent. It's the same as when you left it earlier this morning, the present absence of Nekomoto aside. Your parents haven't come yet, evidently.
It wasn't a very welcoming atmosphere even then, but now that there isn't a talking cat lying around with you, your home seems incredibly lonely.
Aika
You start searching on your phone before your fingers pause at the sound of a sudden voice.
"You certainly seem bored, young lady," Nekomoto comments, practically appearing out of thin air. It's been some time since you tried calling out to him at Joan's request, but wherever he was, he must have returned.
Yukari
Takeshi speaks while continuing to work on the scooter.
"So, what about you? Have any stories?"
Hisako
You idly flip through one of your textbooks, random scribbles and doodles populating the margins. You come across a consistent pattern as you skip through a certain chunk of pages.
On the same spot on each page is a date and a fortune. Slowly, it comes back to your mind that you had once made a habit of writing down the fortunes that Masumi-chan, your fortune-telling friend in the occult research club, gave you each meeting.
"What's that you're looking at, Kazuaki-san? Finishing up some homework?"
Egusa-san glances in your direction, curious as to why you brought out the textbook.

Joan
The bandaged girl doesn't reply as you make your leave. She simply watches you exit for a moment before turning away.
A few minutes later, you find yourself outside the arcade again.
Aika
After a bit of digging around under the TV, you find the case for the first volume of Blindfold Hero Punchman and insert the disc into the Blu-ray player.
"Change Fist! Lariat Buuuuuurniiiiiing!!"
The first episode begins with the protagonist, a down on his luck man with a boxing hobby, meeting the titular Blindfold Hero Punchman in a chance encounter! Disaster strikes as Punchman defeats the enemy to protect the protagonist, but at the cost of his own life. With his last breath, he gives his mantle and powers of a Blindfold Hero to the main character.
It's an odd show, but you think you can understand how it has wide age range appeal.

Joan
The girl averts your gaze.
"..It's meaningless to pursue that kind of wish like that."
Her response is dripping with contempt, but rather than being towards you, it isn't directed at anyone or anything in particular.
"That's all I'm going to say about it. Just forget what I said anything earlier."

[seriously you guys need to update]

[as much as her high priest Cube would argue otherwise, Joan cannot carry the campaign on her own]

Tami, Hisako
"Hmm.. a couple of years? Just kidding."
Egusa-san laughs with a bashful expression.
"Well, to be honest, it's been a few months. Three or four, I guess? In the beginning, I thought her personality was just because we didn't know each other well, but she hasn't changed at all even now."
Joan
"Don't get involved with strange fish," she replies.
..? You're not really sure what she means.
"Is that all?"
