Story[]
NEO: The World Ends with You[]
During LiVing LeGend (Week 2, Day 2), a Jupiter of the Monkey-loving wall Reaper asks the Wicked Twisters to buy and wear a Karma Shoulder Bag from the nearby Jupiter of the Monkey store. They find it locked and shopkeeper Keiichi Okada angrily rapping in his head about Modoriyama, who has the shop's key, going missing. They also find a lost phone buzzing with texts and missed calls. Further down Cat Street, Go Modoriyama frets about losing his phone. Using imprinting, the Wicked Twisters direct Modoriyama back to the shop so it can open and they can buy the Karma Shoulder Bag.
The sidequest "Modoriyama Drama Llama" is about Modoriyama being possessed by Noise. The Wicked Twisters find him at Udagawa, upset about being in the back room because he can't rap as well as Keiichi Okada. Nagi Usui uses her Dive ability to erase the Noise possessing him, and Modoriyama decides to focus on beatboxing.
