He is then introduced to the activities of the Yozakura family, from exploding alarm clocks to poisoned meals. However, his biggest challenge yet turns out to be the bathroom, which he couldn’t avoid. Shion tells Taiyou that he must be accepted by the mansion to disarm the traps, and that would normally take two years for a normal person. He goes to school with Mutsumi wearing a 30 kg shirt, which prevents him from reacting much to people.
