Tempura? You know how to hook me, don't you?

[Tempura goes so well with mayonnaise (but then everything does in Hijikata's world)! He's pleased to hear that Crow has a new venue to sing at, too.]

The Phoenix Roost is a café? I thought it was a night club. Well, neither is quite my scene, but I can make an exception to see you play.

[Honestly, what even is "his scene" besides the battlefield and the illusion of a myaonnaise factory he made up in his head?]
